1900: REV. HOWELL'S ANTI NJ STATE FAIR MORALITY

Back in the 20th century at the Hamilton Square Presbyterian Church, The Rev. Joseph Howell was the local watchdog for public places which he felt violated community decency standards. There are many articles in the press of the past where he fought against the location of saloons, gambling places and as seen above the New Jersey Interstate Fair. One wonders what Rev. Howell would think if he were to witnesses the culture war that has been raging in these"enlightened years" in which we now live. Where are you when we need you, Reverend?
