l NEWS AND COMMENT BOTES ON POLITICAL AND OTHER CONDITIONS. SPICY ITtatS OF INTEREST TO CITIZENS. SlwrtS OF THE TIMES AND THEIR IN-1 TERPRETATION i A promotion in railroad circles wliich ' m of interest to all associated with the ' development of the Jersey Coast is the 1 appointment of Mr. George F. Ingram | 1 M Advertising Agent of the Heading System. j 1 The advertising which the Reading j ' has done in the past relating to the 1 Now Jersey sea coast has been more or 1 leaa of a routine character. It has been ' confined chiefly to formal announce- 1 menu of ohanges of schedule, together I with brief references to the various resorts serve<L-by the Reading. The in- 1 novation which newspaper readers have 1 observed in the new advertisements of 4 ths Heading consists in a striking and ( attractive presentation of the claims of ' the Jersey Coast for recognition on the part of the traveling public. It is en- 1 tirely due to the initiative and skill of I Mr. Ingram, supported by the executive 4 officials of the road, that the important ' Improvements in the Reading's resort 1 advertising have been made. The ad- 1 vertising campaign which the Reading ' is now inaugurating, while conserra- 4 tive, is thoroughly representative of the - growth and development of its territory. ' The Reading's new system of advertis- 1 tag already reflects the striking featurea of Reading resorts and is caku- 1 lated to attract travel by timely suggestions and illustrations rather than 1 by the simple time-table announcements of trains and fares. Mr. Ingram has been trained in the 1 •ffice of Vice-President Voorhees for the past thirteen years, having entered the service of the Reading as an office boy. t He baa advanced himself first to a sec- c retarial position and now to the office I of Advertising Agent of the entire Read- t ing System. ' His distinguishing cKarac- 1 (eristics are simplicity of manner, de- 1 finite new of purpose and capacity for 1 work. He is a member of the Second > Regiment and laid out the itinerary and 1 supervised all commissary arrangements' I for the feeding of the 180 men who have just returned from the San Francisco t Fair— an undertaking of no mean pro- t portions. The trip wae made without a <1 hitch and the two kitchen cars were I never out of provender for the hungry s passengers they supplied. 1 The appointment of a live wire like a Mr. Ingram to the Publicity Depart- c ment of tbe Reading is certain to stimulate travel to the New Jersey Coast,* Resorts, which will benefit the road he 1 1 is connected with and ths territory it c serves, as welL ' * ... I As a result of the mutualization of c Tbe Prudential Insurance Company of t America on December 6th next the mil- g lions of Prudential policyholders will be t privileged for tbe first time to select t the Company's directors. Tl»e meeting a will be held at the Home Office of the a Company' Newark New Jersey and the personal or proxy .vote of each policy- f

holder is earnestly solicited and urged by President Forrest F. Dryden. The policy holders as the owners of 1 substantially all of the Company's stock are represented by a Trustee Hon. Austen Colgate, who will be required to [ vote the policy holders' stock in accor-. ■ ■ dance with the selection made at the , j policyholders^ meeting at the meeting of . stockholders hold at the same place on i January 10, 1916. By the policy holders' purchase of ] the Prudential stock the power to select , directors is placed directly in their hands , and they therefore now own and control , the big institution and will also share to ( the full in its profits. . I Letters announcing tbe meeting reJ ferred to and urging every policyholder j either to be present or vote by proxy been outsanding and every bolder of one of these, who is over the age be entitled to vote at this meeting. It is the desire of the Company that every policyholder should have full notification of the meeting, and to this end advertisements will run for five months in the newspapers of the leading centers ' of the country, and, in addition, all tbe j Company's agents have been instructed < to personally notify tRk policyholders. * Accompanying the letters of announcement to the policyholders are proxies to enable the policyholders to express their individual choice for directors, and they are asked to forward them as quickly as possible to acommittee seleoted to represent them by the of Directors. The Committee comprises former Chancellor William J. Magic, former Supreme Court Justice Van Syckel, and John K. Gore, first vice-president of The Prudential. ^ The proxies may be handed to representatives of the Company. PERFORMERS FOR FAIR PROGRAM.
