exercised by the Auditors in the discharge
of their duties, heretofore, and knowing
that the Stockholders of the Association
which Is an Association in which the

acquainted with that fact and relied upon
it to such large extent, feel it my duty
to submit to the press the following CORES
pondence, as being the only means through
which it was possible, in the short time

Harrison School Board.

Mr.. EDITOR IL notice in your last
issue that ]. J. Davies was appointed to a
position on the School Board, which your
Mullica Hill correspondent says " is very
gratifying to many in the township" Al
the annual meeting held last March, Nj.
Jos. Kirkb bride was elected member of the
the Board, when notified of his election he
at once resigned in favor of Israel Evan, the
former incumbent.
The Clerk of the Board forwarded Mr..
Kirkbride's resignation to the County
Superintendent, aud he said it had better
come before the Board for their considera-
ton. The matter was brought before the
Board and Mr.. Evan received five out Of
seven votes The result was sent to the
County Superintendent for his approval.
But for some cause, unknown to the
writer, J. J. Davies was appointed, to the
qualification of very .fesO instead of oerg
mGny. Now, if this so-called very many
think they are voicing the sentiment of the
township, they may be very much mis-

a New Fire House.

The committee of Council and of Friend
ship Fire Company met last evening to
discuss propositions to erect suitable fire
house for Friendship Fire Company on
the City Hall plot. The prop sition of the
Fire Company is to give the old fire house
and lot to the city, either by conveyance,
or proceeds of public sale. The city to
erect the new house on the north east
corner of the plot at cost of $4,000 The
money to be raised by bonds to run four
years, which would increase the tax rate
we are informed) by one-ha't of one per
cent. year during that period
There is great unanimity of opinion as to
the need of new house. When the
present house was erected by the village it
was suited to the needs of the meagre and
primitive appliances. But the department
has grown with the city, and now reached
a point where safety of the apparatus as
we'll as the protection of lives of the men
who operate it, require a new building.
This department is one that Woodbury.
property owners have reason to surround
with every necessity it is intellIgently
conducted; the property in its care is
jealousy guarded and calls for service are
always responded to with prompt hearth
ness that has given it wide reputation for
efficiency.

Woodbury. Branch of the Red Cross.
Bv authority of the Philadelphia branch
of the Red Cross Society, number Of
ladies of this city met last Saturday, April
80, and organized the Woodbury. Branch
of the Red Cross Society.
The following officers were elected
President, Miss Elizabeth B. Matlock !;
Vice President, Mrs. W. E Speakman !;
I'd Vice President, Mrs. I. 7. Maxwell;
Treasurer, Mrs E T. Jacques; Recording
Secretary, Mrs. E. T. Broadway, Cor. Sec'y.
Mrs F. Skinner.
This society is auxiliary to the medical
department of armies and naYies, and its
aim is to ameliorate the condition of SOL
diers in time of war. The society was
organized at an international conference
held at Geneva, Switzerland, in 1864, and
it is now recognized by all nations, recog-
milton by the United States being given by
President Arthur in March, 1882.
Last Saturday, about the time the Red
Cross Branch was organized as above
stated, a movement to organize branch
of an organization whose work is on
similar lives, was started, and meetings
arranged for public organization, but as
such would result in a division of energy,
the second movement has been merged
with the Red Cross Society, and the ladies
are working together for best results.
The labor of collecting funds with which
to prosecute the work has been in the
hands of the committee which will report
tomorrow, Friday afternoon, when energies
will be concentrated and work begun.
HOUSEWIVES FOR SOLDIERS
The first necessity of the soldier is a
housewife" This article is made of cotton
covert cloth or denim, is III inches long
when finished, and Z inches wide. Each
will contain three pockets 81 inches deep,
with of an inch between each pocket.
The middle pocket is to be fastened at one
end and with flap and button 1T the
other end. The entire housewife is to be
stitched, not uound, and tied with a piece
of tape
Many thousands of these hits of tools
will be needed by the soldiers, and when
a sufficient number is collected they will
be forwarded 1t has been decided that
each must contain the following:-
Oae pair of scissors, with blunt points
six needles, three coarse and three medium;
one flannel pad for needles, small emery
bag, one spool No. II black thread, one
spool No. 80 white thread, one package of
court plaster, one large thimble without
top, half dozen shoe laces, one pipe, one
comb, six steel and six bone buttons and
six safety pins. A bag of tobacco may
also accompany each package.
There was some discussion as to whether
or not tobacco should be included Many
of the ladies objected to sending this arti-
Gle, but it was decided finally that I" the
weed" is one of mans chief comforts and
should be included. II is not insisted upon,
however, as an accompaniment to these
housewives.
