The Penn's Grove record., 1904-12-02

PENIS Grove is noted for its numerous
secret societies and the large number Of
members. consequently st. PauPs Church
was well filled last Sunday evening to
hear what DR.. Stephenson had to say for
and against them. He said while they
could not be justly condemned for their
secrecy, they are c~ommendable for the
brotherhood cultivated and ~benevolence
given in sickness and adversely. While
the Bible is recognized III them by a
solemn oath, yet their is no Jesus in
their ritual nor burial services. With
out Jesus there is no salvation. The
speaking OF a great brotherhood by and
by because OF this secret association is nom
sense. There is no hope without Christ.
Secret societies were never designated
to supplant the Church. The brother
hood and b~eneyolence cultivated in them
was taken from the Bible. When MEM
bers do anything in a society that does
violence to another members religion
they do wrong. When a member is high
IN lodge honors and rarely attends church
his religion is questionable.

The old saying "you never miss the
water till the well runs, dry" is verified
il WoedstowD by the failure of A. L.
Colson 4 Son to repair the dam to their
mill at the south end of the Borough.
The pond which was a delight for boat
ing, fishing, skating and the famous lotus
lily is now a mud hole, with a small
stream OF water flowing through it.
The reason is that the owners and the
Borough Council cannot agree on what
proportion of expense each should bear
in rebuilding the dam. Colson wants
the borough to bear half the expense, as
a regularly laid out street runs over his
dam. Council offers him a lump sum,
which he does not think enough, and
there the matter rests and is likely to
rest. Mr.. Colson has discharged his miller,
the mill is idle, the pond is empty and
an eyesore, and those who wish to travel
over that particular portion Of Mill street
have to wade. The Borough Council
will be put to considerable expense to re-
lay the water mains if the dam is not re-
built.
The Borough las been in darkness
