My creed ts: All men free and equal; clvil and religious lberty, rich or poor, white or black, civilized or uncivilized, The same thought penetrates the heart and soul of every man and woman.” And so “Uncle Robert,” with an evi- dent lump in bis throat, gave his party to these poor crippled children on Henry Street, who have few par ties of this nature, James Meyer and Antoinette Trom- bola, with their little bodies twisted with infantile paralysis, were trere, and thelr faces lit up with happiness ag little baskets with an orange, a bag of candy and a box of animal crack “o given out to them, All of children present had baskets to them, And there were toys little fuzzy bunnies and miscniev- ous “kewple" dolls, ‘There was Salyadore—you couldn't wus too f. tuken at ed to have his picture it time, but who ran ure men had finished, was had by all, » of all was had by himself, who got hi the other: sole and simple reason y he gives these parties and Icts them be advertised.

There fs much indignation through- out Jersey towns and cities’ at the size of the present oyster stew. And what makes them still more peeved is the fact that they've discovered it’s all a trick. A new soup bowl, which became popular (among the restau- rateurs) has a decided bulge upward in the center. This gives the effect that there are many oysters in the bowl perhaps but It hasn't fooled ob- servant epicures, Oyster shippers in the famous Mau- rice River district are selling oysters at the same price they did @ year ago and while the prices in cafes, restau- rants and oyster houses are also on the same level as a year ago patrons are claiming that the modern stew isn't nearly as filling as the old-fash- joned, the kind that was to be had before the new-fangled bowl came Into popularity. Old-fashioned stews in deep bowls, | with flat bottoms, are atill served in few places, but the new ones with the sandbar effect right in the middle are causing general indignation, St not only reduces the quantity of the stew, but the china sandbar provides an excellent place for the shrinking and shrunken oysters to display them- selves.
