The New RailrOa d Survey

About a month ago six surveyors be-
gan running a railroad route from New
field to Deep Water Point, three miles be-
low Penn's Grove. They reached the
Upper Penns Neck township line the lat
ter part OF last week. Passed thru Eagle
town last Saturday and reached Deep
Water Point on Wednesday, making the
line end about a hundred yards below the
brick house.
If one will put a string on a map it will
show nearly a straight line from Newtield
thru Elmer, Woodstown, Eagletown to
Deep Water Point. The line enters the
township at the Sharptown and Courses
Landing cross roads.
This will make a straight short route
from Wilmington to Atlantic City.
1t was remarked by one OF the duPonts
within the past year that a railroad would
be built Oh that route within five years
to give a quick route for the South to At
lantic City. The duPonts have owned
the Deep Water Point farm for the past
twelve years. There is a railroad which
now extends to Pigeon Point, opposite
Deep Water Point, and there is reported
to be an immense lot of ties and rails at
Pigeon Point now.
There is another rumor that the Wa.
bash system OF the west, controlled by
George Gould, is building a line eastward.
They have got as far as Pittsburg and
there is a rumor that the contract has al.
ready been given to build a line from
Washington to Pigeon Point. 1t has also
been said that the West Jersey and At.
lantic road from Newfeld to Atlantic
City is now owned by other parties thar
the West Jersey and Seashore Company
notwithstanding the latter Company ba,
electrified it and run their trains over If.
Such a railroad will be of great benefit
to the farmers, because the w. J.. g. Sea
shore road 0 has to run a special trair
to take milk from the eastern part of tn,
County to Atlantic City during the sum
mer.

School Notes

At the close of the first month OF the
school years ending Oct. 4th, there were
enrolled 392 pupils in PENIS Grove
School, 224 being in the primary, III in
the grammar grade, and 35 in the high
school. The number of su bjects taught
in the primary grade is Z, grammar
grade 10, high school 35.
In the eight grades below the high
school 1870 pupils were neither absent
nor tardy; in the high school Is. Fit
teen in the high school attended 16
days in September.
There are about % who are very irreg-
ular in attendance. The Bo ard of Edu-
cation does not want to use harsh means
to get a regular attendance, but 1t is a
detriment to those who stay away, as
will as the regular attenders when they do
come. Physical and mental disability
are the only reasonable excuses that par
ents can offer for keeping their children
out of school. The school is run at great
expense for all and the parents of the
irregular attenders should appreciate
their privileges.

He gave a word of ~commendation to
candidate Duffy, by saying he admired

Mr.. Duffy spoke a few words. He
said he did not propose to do anything
that would make anyone ashamed OF
having voted for him. He expected il

clean hands and return with the same.
At 7.30 the party left in an automobile
for Salem where a large meeting was

The meeting was the largest and most
enthusiastic ever given a international

a good impression on the people. Those
who know him speak highly of him.

Pipe Line Completed

The dupont pipe line to conduct water
from Layton's pond to Carney Point was
completed last Saturday when the work
men, who had been building the stone
road over the dam, were discharged and
BENZ. S. Featherer, who carted the first
load of material, carted the last load.
The work was begun the last week in
September 1906. For the past three
weeks a fine stone road has been building
over the dam.
After spending about 5000, 900 it is to
be regretted that the water is not first
, class for making the finest powder. The
water was first analysed from the run.
ming stream and proved very satisfactory.
The pond having been dry for about fifteen
years much vegetable matter has grown
on the bottom. That sours, rises and
discolors the water. If there was a wal
the government inspectors would not be
SO particular as they are now.
The building of the line gave a rich.har.
vest to landowners, laborers, carriers and
those who boarded the men.
