suit those who are worshiping the
Lord, whether it be in the street or in
building, hasn't brains enough to be
allowed to run at large. One evening

individual of this caliber, while the
Salvation Army were holding services
in the street, and it made us think

luted from the monkey wasn't all

John A. Pearson last week sold his
five acre home place to John A. Port
for 81, 200 per acre. This tract is set
sold to fruit, mostly peaches, and joins
the town directly on the north. Mr..
Pearson has 10 acres in Vineland upon
which he will locate. Mr.. Port in
tends to cultivate this tract year
or two and then cut it up into town
lots. The FIVE he recently bought of
Mr.. Pearson directly joining this last
five on the north will probably be
plated next week and admission ap-
piled for into the town. -Palisade
