gratified to see that during the summer

THERE is considerable discussion about
the question of licensing the sale of liquor
at Asbury Park. One of the objections
is that law in existence provides that no
liquor shall be sold within mile of any
camp meeting ground. This applies to
Asbury Park, as the Ocean Grove ground
is within the limit. While not exactly in
favor of license for the other place it
would seem as if the time had come when
arrangements might be made for many
privileges not only in the vicinity of
Ocean Grove but right in its midst. At
present no milk may be bought on Sunday
within the precincts that seem to have
such sacredness in the eyes of some. No
matter how badly needed, no matter if the
welfare of an infant is at stake, buy your
milk on Saturday or let your baby go
hungry. If you are sick you may have a
doctor but he must not drive to your door,
and if you die on that day you must wait
until the next day for attention. This
may be all right for Ocean Grove, and if
people will go to that resort they know in
advance what they will have to contend
with, but there does. not seem to be any
reason why the Puritanical ideas of Ocean
Grove should govern other resorts.

That is so, and it is dollars to dough

will not be $3.50 per year Office either.

The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1905-08-15

We ARE pretty bad, according to the
Mirror, and one of our sips is the tenacity
with which we hold on to an office which
pays $3.50 per year. There is no use
denying the fact. You know, Charley,
some people have such an itch for extra
pocket money that they use various means
to get it. For instance we know of a fell
low who had held an office for a long time
and pocketed several thousands of dollars.
There came time when he thought he
had lost the Office and he at once became
possessed of the idea that he must re-
trench expenses, so he began right in his
printing office The fact that the business
was doing as well as in previous years did
not count, he had lost his 81, 200 Office, so
he began-and so far as we know, stopped
served the office more years than the mer-
cenary creature who cut him had seen.
He decided that the foreman must
have 81 per week taken from his salary.
But the editor did not lose his official
place. By that persistency that controls
his entire being when there is dollar in
sight he worked until ne was again ap
pointed, but the 50 once taken off was
never put back. Now let's see. That was
in 1900. Two dollars per week for SO
weeks makes $104 per year. Five years
and six months to July, 1905, is $572.
Against this charge US with five years as Dis
trict Clerk at $3.50. total of $3.50. This
puts us $17S ahead of the game, but even
at that which record would you preferg
