elaborate heAddresses and ornaments are
very popular. Most OF these headdresses
are suggestive of tine Byzantine period.
These ornaments range In price from 81 or

genious needleworker can easily reproduce
them at home. The more popular head
dresses are made of DUH metal braid-gold
or silver-and heavily studded with large

are some times worn flat across the upper
forehead, with the hair just peeping from
beneath the front edge, and they extend
to a point just over the ears. They are
about four inches wide, have rounded or
pointed ends and these ends are finished
with bead tassels. OF course an orna-

have been noted where they were worn

The generation that knew the real negro

negro melodies and the hegro's ways.
That is one reason; ragtime is another
Ragtime originated from the old negro
melodies. but II has gone 50 far beyond
them that the ancient croOns and minors
are not there any more, and so its real
melody, which always has a touch OF
pathos, Is eliminated. All that is left Is a

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

The Elmer Gas Company has been

Among the 1872 graduates at the State
Normal School at Trenton this month are
the following from Salem county: Adel-
la Burt, Emily B. Garrison, Mary A.
Harris, Rosena G. Foster, Elmer; Eliza
beth G. Morrison, and Beryl w. House,
Salem; Martha G. Hope, Yorktown.
It is probable that the teaching of mu-
sic in the Elmer public schools will be
dropped next year,, as the State appro-
priation is only $50. The present in
structor, A. H. VanLier, has declined
TO serve for that amount, as he is re-
quired to give instructions twice a week
in both schools, and the amount Of ap-
preparation falling from 5000 to $50,
makes the sum paid entirely too small
for the amount of work required. The
schools could still get the 5000, appro-
priation, provided the instructor would
teach every day in the school week for
that amount-Times.

Fishing Notes

/. Very few shad were caught this week.
Those who continue to fish are mostly
after sturgeon. On Tuesday Frank Pierce
of Chester, sold to Postmaster T. E. Hunt
a big fish which contained 81 pounds of
roe worth 81 80 a pound and weight be-
sides 300 pounds, worth 6 cents a pound.
The sbad fishing season is practically
over, although the law allows fishing
until the 18th. The catch has been fairly
good and profitable, because of the high
price. The wholesale price at Penn's
Grove was from $22 to $40. At Bayside
it ranged from $26 to $50. The average
at PENIS Grove was about $38 per 100,
and about $42 at the Bay.
The best river fishermen cashed from
5000 to 81, 200, while the bay fishermen
cashed from $500 to 81, 800.
Charles Bright at Pennsville caught the
largest roe sturgeon uf the season on
Wednesday. 1t was nine feet in length
and weighed 1926 pounds. If it had not
spawned it would have been worth 5000.
Men of former ages, unless they lived
near the sea or a river, had great diff
culties in gratifying their taste for fish.
The great houses had their fish ponds OF
stews, but sea fish, such as cod, Dream,
sturgeon, herring and sprats, were sailed,
and the excessive consumption of highly
salted fish in the middle ages is said tt
have produced leprosy. Fish was alst
baked in pies to enable it to be carried
for great distances.

oldmans Greek Improvement

Whether Oldmans Greek shall be deepa
ened and shortened is now under consid-
Grafton by the owners of the meadows
between the mouth of the creek and
Auburn and other citizens interested.
In 1908 the engineers in charge of the
Delaware river ana it's tributaries made a
report OF the preliminary survey made in
in 1907, showing that there is a depth OF
only 3.9 feet of water at the mouth of the
creek at low tide. The bars at the mouth
hinder the tide from falling low enough
to allow the water to run off of some OF
the meadows, while the water is becom-
ing so shoal below Auburn that only
small boats can be used for freight where
tugs and scows were formerly used.
The distance from the mouth to Auburn
is about IL miles. By making nine canals
through nine bends the distance can be
shortened about five miles.
The present Congress has appropriated
$45, 900 to begin the work to make a chan
mel so feet wide, with a depth Of six feet
at low water from the mouth to Pedrick-
town, and a width of 40 feet with a low
water depth of five feet between Pedrick-
town and Auburn.
The government will not begin the
work unless the meadow owners relin-
quish all claims for damages for the right
of way where canals must he cut and the
making of islands by these cut-offs.
A public meeting will be held in Red
Mems Hall, Pedricktown, next Saturday
evening, the 18th, at s o'clock, by the
citizens interested in this improvement,
to consider whether there can be a con-
certed action to have this improvement
done as outlined by the government en-
gineers and provided for by Congress.
