Pit Would Be Dangerous.

As at previous hearings. the railway
company attorneys shaped. their questions
at times to bring out statements from
the witness that it would be dangerous
to the public If a pit were ordered built
at 32d and streets northwest, so that
the cars could change from the overhead
to the underground system. There is
grade at that point, and for that reason,
it was commended, an accident would be
liable to occur most any time should the
track be slippery.
W. F. nam. vice president of the rail-
way company, was questioned as to his
ideas, which are against the installation
of the through service.
Chairman Marble announced that the
final hearing in the case will be held next
Monday afternoon. 1t is believed that
decision will be rendered shortly there
after.

Mr.. John S. Conover, of Oceanville,
is now visiting his daughter and her
husband, Mrs. and Mr.. William ].
Boice, the Mayor of this city. Mr..
Conover attains to the age of four
score and two-ffths of a score years
of age (88 years). He remembers
when there were only a few houses
situate between Oceanville and Som
Hers Point, about one dozen. Also,
when oxen worked to and drew wag-
ons loaded with hay and other pro-
ducts. The patient OK at that time
was the recognized beast of burden.
Many the day when yoked to cart the
oxen took the notion to run away, did
it. Also and not a few fields plowed
by these animals when yoked to the
plow. A common affair sixty years
or more ago to go to market in cart
or wagon. Also and to ride to the
meeting house and to go visiting in a
vehicle with straw on the bottom, the
said conveyance drawn by the oxen.
Mr.. Conover states the religious ser
vices not the same as in those years
in spirituality and power, the revivals
nowadays not like those then. He
calls to mind when the country from
Oceanville to Somers Point was a
wilderness. He remembers the father
Of the writer and when the said father
was the preacher on the Bargaintown
Circuit Also when the itinerant rode
horseback with the old saddlebags ov-
er the steed's back. Friends, what a
change and without doubt for the best.

Editors Pleasantville Press:
Recently having been put in charge

State, I find myself much handicapped
by lack of information in regard to
the location Of the sites of the former
villages, camps, burial grounds, and
shell heaps Of our Indians, which we
desire to map for the purpose of fu-
ture study. Can you furnish me with
the names and addresses of any per-
sons in your county who are interest
ed in Indian relics?
Thanking you for your courtesy in
this matter, am, sirs, believe me,
Very sincerely yours,

THE VALUE OF COURTESY.

Life ought to have in it a-large ele-
ment Of courtesy, very gracious and
tender civility. You lose nothing by
the graciousness of your life, you
sweeten your own life by being grac-
ious to other people. "We love you,
we welcome you, we are pleased to
see you" These are little things!
No, not little! There is nothing lit
tie about the love and friendship and
courtesy and the tender sacrifice
which means the outpouring, the Ii
baton and gift of the heart, Are you
gracious? Do you do things because
you must do them, or because the
"must' does not express mechani-
cal law, but a gracious constraining
of renewed heart?
