Dangerous Roads,

The recent accidents along the road
near Maurice River emphasize the
importance of substantial railings
along the roadside not only there,
but in many other places where a road
is PARALLEL by a ditch or stream. AS
the number of motor cycles and auto
mobiles grows rapidly, there is ever in
creasing danger on such roads from
unmanageable horses when they meet
these Machines Many drivers of the
machines are oonsiderate enough to
stop for the horses to pass safely, but
there are others who do not. It would
be we'll for the Township Committee
to look after some of these places and
see what can be done to make them
reasonably safe on the most travelled
roads. s.-Vineland Journal.

Very Bad Boys Tied Policeman

Very Bad Boys Tied Policeman
Mischievous boys, the very bad kind
over in Third ward, tied a policeman
to pole Friday and allowed him
to remain there bound hand and foot
while they scampered away Other
parties seeing the state of the officer
had to cut him loose.
1t occurred at uhe corner of Vine
and Fayette streets. The boys as,
sembled there without anything par
ticularly interesting to occupy their
attention and one proposed this trick
for some fun, having gotten the idea
from "Peck's Bad Boy" Spoilers
were sent out and one of them soon
located the policeman and the mob
with ropes surrounded him by sur
prise. He was bound and led to the
pole; they then tied him fast and left.
of course, as soon as it became
known that he was there excitement
started and he was released.
AS the whole affair was only for fun
nothing will be done to the boys.
The policeman was an advertisement
of "No-Sorap" tobacco.
