BY Gold Weathe,

past few days has set back the rais-
ing of early fruit and vegetables In
the Upper Passaic Valley. Farmers
who raise early vegetables for mar
keting claim that If the cold weather
does not let up the entire crop will be
ruined.
The warm weather had forced the
growth of all kinds of plants and
seeds. but with the sudden drop In
the temperature such vegetables as
beans, peas anu lettuce have been
injured. IT is not known how far
the damage will extend.
Jesse Van Duyne, who has a small
farm in Roseland, claims that straw
berries are damaged to a certain ex-
tent, and If the weather continues

HIS ORDINATION
MAY RENEW WAR
Presbyterian General Assem-
bly, Had Protested Against
Rev. Philip S. Bird.

Following the ordination of the Rev.
Philip S. Bird. of Montclair. as a
Presbyterian minister last night, it is
thought that the controversy between
the New York Presbytery and the
General Assembly will be renewed, as
Afr. Bird was one of the four candi-
dates against whom a protest had
been lodged. Mr.. Bird was a gradu-
ate of the Union Theological Semi
nary and was received into the New
York Presbytery at its last meeting
despite the protest which had been
lodged against him. He was or
dained at the Madison Avenue Pres
byterian Church, New York.
There has been a Outstanding diff
ference between the Presbyterian
General Assembly and the Union The
illogical Seminary, and it is believed
this matter will be settled at the
meeting of the assembly this week
In Atlanta.
The newly ordained minister is q
son of Mr.. and Mrs Joseph e. Bird
of "a Brunswick road, Montclair. He
was born at Newton, Mass, and at
tended thu Montclair schools until his
first year at high school. On account
of his health he went to Southern
California. where he resumed his
studies. He is graduate of Ramona
College and of the University of Cali
fornia. and completed his studies for
the ministry at Union Theological
Seminary. New York.
The Rev. Mr. Bird has received and
accepted call 10 Ramona College
Church, Claremont, Southern Califor-
MIA, and last night received the right
hand of fellowship from the president
OF that college

CHICKEN THIEVES CAUSE
WEST ORANGE FIRE

Search is being made by the police
Iof West Orange for chicken thief
who is believed to have been the cause
of fire which destroyed barn be-
longing to Harry A. Williams. on the
ridge of First Orange mountain.
Early yesterday morning Mr.. Will
Jams, awakened by the cracking Of
flames. discovered that the hennery
was afire. Prompt action enabled him
to save the greater part of his stock.
He was at a loss to account for the
fire until the discovery later of bag
containing three chickens near the
barn, led him to think that thieves
were at work when the blaze started.
