Saturday will see an end Of the
ball season in Pleasantville, when
the final game will be played be-
tween the home boys and the
strong West Side team Of Atlantic
City. 1t is the hope Of the team
that as many as possible will be
out to add to the collection and
make little bonus for nest egg
to start on next year. The boys
are working hard preparing way
to get new, fast grounds which
our team is sorely in need Of.
For some unaccountable reason
Egg Harbor cancelled the game for
Sunday between our youngsters
and themselves, which was to BE-
played at Egg Harbor. They also
would not agree to allow us to
rent their grounds for that day 90
that ,'lcasantville could play Ham
lao2ton. What is the matter with
Egg Harhor! Are they afraid Of
us. When we get our new grounds
we " i let them come visit us;
Iial,ll,s i.t0n, too.

P. B. Adams Gets Contract for New Curbs

will indemnify the contracting
parties.
Engineer Clark suggested that
the Councilmen have an inspector
appointed whose task shall be to
oversee the work at all times, thus
avoiding the complications that
attended the laying of concrete
cutters on Shore Road three years
ago, when Curtis Somers was the
contractor. No action IN this re-
spect was taken by the Council
men. Mr.. Clark may insist upon
an inspector, for while the work
must be done under his approval,
were he to give it undivided per
sonal attention the Borough would
incur considerable expense. The
engineer thinks that cheaper ser
vices may be secured.
Mr.. Clark expressed his regret
that the grades on Shore Road
have not been changed. In sup
port of this he points out the trou-
ble that may be experienced at low
spots when large volumes of water
are carried from the smooth sur
face Of the roadway.
In fact, the Councilmen are not
at ease regarding the question Of
taking care Of surface water III
many places; for instance, in front
of the Absecon pumping station
in front Of Ellis j. Adams prop
erty, as well as at the low place
near j. B. Smiths store.
Mr.. Kellum introduced the sub
.iect Of establishing the grade Of
Fourth street between the two rail
roads, and the engineer was in
structed to proceed with the work.

all those who saw him pull balls down
from the atmosphere will testify.
In the olden days when Pleasantville

was almost invincible in so far as the
local boys were concerned, but now

senting this town have no fear Of the
former terror.

OFFICIAL AUTUMN is HERE

Wednesday was the last day OF sum
mer. Official autumn began Thursday
at ll.37 o'clock in the morning. Really
the fall weather has been on hand for
several weeks, but Mr.. Weatherman, the
world over, always refuses to recognize
its arrival until certain date. Then lie
formally welcomes it in state.
The hosts of autumn formed for their
yearly attack ON old summer late in
August Their skirmish line of chill
winds harassed the pickets of the woods,
the shumach and the dogwood. Their
vanguard of haze hampered the reinforce
ments of Old Sol. So now, even before
the advance of the main body under
General Jack Frost, early victory is as
sured.
Summer made little resistance. One
day last week, Saturday, itsf orces ralli-
ed. Aided by the sun, the rapid advance
of fall was momentarilly checked. But
only momentarily. Sunday cold north
wind swept down and all the good work
of the previous day was lost.

IS OCT. 1a LEGAL HOLIDAY?

Whether or not Columbus day, Octo-
Der Il, is now legal holiday in this
State is question that is debated both
by the Court Of Chancery and the State
school department.
State Superintendent of Schools Bax
ter wants to know if it is a legal holiday,
as the school earnings are thereby al
fected. The point under which the ques-
tion is raised is that by the work OF the
last legislature an amendment was made
to an act which never existed.
Columbus day was first made legal
holiday in 1876 Subsequently that act
was repealed. Then the Legislature ut
its last session made the day a holiday
as supplement to the act of 1876.
Vice Chancellor Garrison gives it IS
his opinion that it is not. At any rate
he will hold court that day. As that IS
the regular motion day Of Vice Chan
cellor Walker at the State sHouse, his
court is likel yto be affected and Trenton
lawyers are therefore interested.

OF the Republican Press of Atwater.
+. Z. Peterson was reelected treas

three years. The assessment levied
for the ensuing year was Is cents

company now has 1,47l policies in
force, carrying an insurance of
So, ,259, 100, a gain of 62 policies,
carrying over $250,000 during the
past year. Losses paid during the
year amounted to S., ,80l "a and the
company has the handsome balance
in the bank of $l9, lat 40 which en-
ables it to pay the losses incurred
very promptly. This large amount
of business was attended to during
the past year at the low cost of
SITS 80 which includes all expenses
incurred. The efficient secretary
of this cooperative enterprise. that
has proven so successful. is the old
veteran, John G. Porter, of Gennes-
see township.
