NEWS OF MONMOUTH AND OCEAN COUNTIES MINTURN'S CHARGE TO BELMAR Kill assess EATONTOWNA DORO BY DECIDED MAJORITY IN POLL YESTERDAY oungsters OCEAN COUNTY JURY PROVES POETIC GEM 1 Supreme Court Justice, In Honeyed Phrases, 396 For and 148 Against In Referendum For Change From Township Form of Government, Long Advocated and Now a Fact. Tells of Birds and Bootleggers and Two Kinds of "Swallows," In Urging Law Enforcement. TOMS RIVER, April 14.

Spring, Supreme Court Justice Mlnturn holds, turns the fancy not so much to thoughts of love as to "oriental visions of the nocturnal scenes in the metropolitan center in which one member of this court is consigned to Lmibsist." than the township method. From the first It has been app ent that the majority of Eatontown residents have wanted the change. The first mass meeting for the purpose of inaugurating propaganda for the change was attended by some 300 persons and the second by over 400. Tho petition favoring tha change was signed by some 300 persona. Fearful that there would not ba a heavy enough vote cast to make the result of the referendum legal, proponents of the change In form of government established headquarters yesterday in the Haynes building, on Main street and from there operated a number of private automobiles which had been lent to insure the getting out of a large vote.

The polls were open from 6 o'clock in the morning until 7 o'clock in the evening. 4- 4f Henry E. Gravatt Flappers Not So Bad Prohibition and the flappers of to-dav are acceptable in a certain de gree but some times they go beyond bounds, in the opinion of Henry E. Gravatt, 144 Embury avenue, Ocean Grove, who celebrated his 81st brith-day last Jan. 5.

He was employed by the Ocean Grove association 19 years and the Lewis Lumber company for a quarter century. He is a bit dubious about prohibition, having this to say; "Sometimes I think it has done more harm than it has good. I do not use liquor myself but I can not see where people have benefited by prohibition. There is as much drunkenness now as there ever was and often I believe it is a good deal worse." And Mr. Gravatt is not particularly averse to flappers, tho he intimated that they are a little "flighty." "Flappers, just like prohibition, are all right in their place, but you know, some times, I think they go a little too far.

I certainly disapprove of a woman smoking or drink ing. "But speaking about prohibition and the women's vote nnd that sort of thing. In' my youth, of course, they never were and we never used to think of such things. As things are being done today they would have appeared dreadful in thoBe days. I remember my old grandma smoking a pipe but the way some women smoke nowadays makes them too much like men." After a bit more conversation in which Mr.

Gravatt said he was born in Clarksburg, N. Jan. 5, 1845, the son of Sarah N. Bird of Walls Mills, now known as EIHsdale, and Doblas Gravatt and was one of four children, the 81-year-older advanced this view; "You know the women want to be as much like men as they can. And I suppose the voting, smoking and other habits all come with it." Mr.

Gravatt attended school in his birthplace and worked on a farm until he was about 40 years old. He then came to Ocean Grove with his wife and children and has' lived in the campmeeting resort most of the time since. He almost received his wife in marriage as a birthday gift for they were wedded on Jan. 4, 1870, and have celebrated their Bfith anniversary. Mrs.

Gravatt was Miss Alice Parker of Clarksburg. They had OCEAN CO. LAND County Tax Board's Reduction In Unimproved Property Overruled By State Board In Review. (Special to Ths Press) TRENTON, April 14. Exercising powers delegated to it under a 1300 law, the state board ot taxes and assessment today directed that an assessment of for 1925 against tho Bamberlake corporation for acres of unimproved land In Manchester township, Ocean county be increased to $22,500.

The township assessor assessed the land at $90,500. There was no formal appeal filed with the Ocean county board of tnxation on or before June 15, 1925, as provided in the general tax act of 1918. There was, however, filed with the county hoard, on Juno 15, 1925, an affidavit in the nature of an appeal on behalf of the corporation setting forth tnnHUhe sessment was erroneous. "Subsequently," said the state board, "the Ocean county board of taxation proceeded to hear and determine tho matter, with the result that a judgment was entered by that body reducing tho above mentioned assessment ($90,500) to $6,786. appeal has been lodged with tlila board for the purpose of reviewing the action of tho county board.

There whs no testimony taken before this board by either party relative to the value of the property in question, which consists of 2,202.52 acres of unimproved land. One party relies on the value ns fixed by the assessor, while the other depends on the value ns determined, by the county board. Tho testimony taken before the county braird was offered in evidence, but it is unsatisfactory in so far as it deals with the value of tho property. We. have examined Into this matter carefully, inspected the land, made reference to sales of similar property and have endeavored to reach a just conclusion regarding the true value of thp land on Oct.

1, 1924. We believe the land was then wortli $22,500 and so find." The state board overruled the claim of the corporation that the township assessor had no right to appeal tha county tax board assessment to tho state board, BENEFIT FOR POINT PLEASANT SENIOR CLASS ON FRIDAY TOINT PLEASANT, April 14.

To be effectually -and consumately exe. cuted this anomalous procession must be indulged in the midst ot a meal, and resumed at intervals, so that In truth jazz becomes the piece de resistance of the meal, and while the meal, thru neglect, shrinks into dissuetude, the jazz becomes magnl -liedin ethereal ecstatic exuberance and intensity.

Death Lurks In Cup Some may think the cup that cheers holds a god-like nectar, the court indicated, "but we who occasionally are permitted to lift the veil of the sanctum-sanctorum of this spiritual atmosphere, and hear the harrowing tales of adventure by land and flood, know too well that the bottle thus publicly exhibited and flouted as it were with exultation in the eyes ot the law, contains nothing less than stupefying death dealing whisky, the general use of which is outlawed, denounced and prohibited by the law and the constitution, as a crime.

Approaching the end of his charge, the court added: "Stealthily proceeds the rapid auto mobile, containing the bootlegger from the cliff dwellings and grottoes of the cities over our splendid road into the land of promise, from whlci the precious cargo is speedily re moved to our vaunted center of civilization for sale; and thus we have In practical profitable operation, that delectable classical combination, Rue In urbe. i "It is with complex conspiracy against the constitution and the law that we have to deal.
