Farmers Gathering.

The annual meeting of the Burlington
County Board of Agriculture was held In
the court house on Saturday. There was
a large audience of men who looked as if
the past year had been a prosperous one
and the numerous automobiles in front of
the court house gave evidence of good
times. All seemed happy and nobody
appeared to haye any complaints.
The meeting was called to order by
Charles D. Barton, president, who made
an address in which he referred to the fine
weather that all have enjoyed for a long
time, and said it had undoubtedly been
beneficial to the farmer. The crops had
all been good and the peach crop had
made a record that would never be broken.
He called attention to the summer meet
ing of the Board which was held en- the
farm of the Campbell Soup Company at
Moorestown, and Mr.. Barton said the
benefits derived from that gathering were
such as to create a desire for a meeting of
that character every year.
The report of the secretary was very
interesting, being more in the nature of
an address than the regulation report. In
his statement of the various crops the
secretary reported as follows:

Owing to the severe storm only II of

pointment as the occasion of a grand jury
meeting was one of business and social
distinction. 1t was an old custom that
when the calendar of a county or common
wealth was clear of crime, for the lore
man of the grand jury to present to each
of the judges a pair of white gloves. in
dicating the purity of the situation.
With the white sno on the ground aud
everything clothed in the emblem of
purity, the white gloves were not neces-
cessarY in this instance, although they
might have been properly presented as
the county seems to be free from crime Of
9 serious nature, with one exception, that
being a charge against a man for homi-
eide. The judge defined the various
phases of murder and told the jury to look
well into the cease and determine what
indictment should be returned.

Walters, Hand & Kingdom.
G. r. FAIRoHILD.
District Manager

Mr.. Fsirchild is the District Manager.
When he was in Mount Holly some time
ago talking over the present situation he
said he was the mar who had instituted
the new arrangement here and he seemed
to glory in the fact that he was ''the
whole show" So we will assume that he is
ut" in this case. His reasons for re-
moving the telephone referred to are all
nonsense. THE NEWS took a decided
stand on the move of the Bell Telephone
Company In its attitude of 'the public
be -" and the removal of the phone
from this Office is simply an act of revenge
or ''come back" on the part of the tele-
phone company 'per G. R. Fairchild, Dis
trict Manager"
THE News does not part company with
the Bell corporation with any regrets, but
it would have more respect for 1t or its
District Manager If the notice had shown
the real animus of the removal and had
said This action Is taken to get square
with you"
THE News office may be reached, as
usual by Interstate SEA.
Possibly it will be remembered that we
called attention to the fact that the agents
of the Bell company are presenting con-
tracts which may not be just what the
party who is asked to sign them thinks
they are. If you have any doubt on the
matter bring the contract to the Office of
THE News before signing, and we will
have it passed upon by legal authorities
without it costing you one cent. Do not
sign any contract until you know just
what Is in it.

Getting Square.

In the Office of THE News there has
been for some a telephone, a slot machine.
which has been designated a public pay
station. That it has been used as such
may be shown from the fact that a good
sum of nickels, dimes and quarters have
been taken up by the collector at the end
of every three months.
Saturday the following letter reached
this office:
Messrs. Walters, Hand & Kingdom.
News Office, Mount Holly, N. ].
Dear Sirs:-KiDdly be advised herewith
of our intention to remove the public tele-
phone "Mt. Holly 400" located on your
premises and for which you are the des-
lgnated agent on December 81, 1912.
This action on our part is taken that our
distribution OF public telephones or "pay-
stations" might be, as nearly as is practic-
able, where they are most accessible to the
public, and in locations which in accord
ance with custom have come to be
generally known and accepted by the
public as the logical place in which a
telephone for public use can be found.

Made Mouse a Pet.

A mouse two inches long, with a
tiny red bow about its neck, was car
ried in the hand of John T. Powers
into the lobby of the Van Mugs hotel
recently.
When an inquisitive young woman
saw the mouse was alive there was q
scream that echoed through the peace
full corridors and a swirl Of skirts and
hasty exit.
AS a crowd of guests gathered Pow
ers exhibited his pocket pet and de-
tailed its history.
