Atlantic City, N. j., June 26.-Start-

CITY COUNCIL
TALKS FILTERS

Last night, with the exception of
Mr.. Oscar X. Whipple, all of the
Councilmen were present at an ad-
journed meeting, President johnson
presiding. Henry A. Hettfnger and
George M. Garwood, recently elected
Councilmen, were present and upon
motion of Mr.. Esibill, were invited to
sit with the Councilmen.
The contract and bond furnished by
the Bridgeton Electric Company for
lighting the city for five years from
December 18th, were presented and
approved by Council.
There was considerable talk of pro ;
viding additional filtration capacity at
the water plant. Public Works Com
missioner w. Dayton Fredrick recon-
mended the building of four addition
al filter bed units of the Roberts type
and upon their completion have the
present six units changed over to the
Roberts system. 1t was claimed for
this system that it would not only
properly filter the water, but would
remove any smell or taste that may
be caused by vegetation at certain
seasons. The Roberts system is used
in Phoenixyille, Pa, and Council
agreed to go there and make an in
spection.
There was some discussion relative
10 finances and action was taken to
govern the expenditure of balances in
appropriations during the present
year.

and compared their predictions for
the coming winter.
! Predictions of Wise Ones
| Here is the substance of some of
the predictions made by the wise ones
at this years gathering:
The early fall indicates an early
spring.
The early departure of the birds
this year indicates an early winter.
If the ground is white on Christ
mas day it will be green on Easter.
The early fall Of leaves this year
indicates an early winter.
The leaves of the trees did not turn
red early this year, therefore there
will be no long winter, but it will be
severe.
The heavy crop of nuts and per-
simmons this year indicates long,
severe winter
The hogs have long bristles and
other animals have shaggy hair,
| which indicates long winter
The hull on shellbarks and walnuts
was thick this year, and the winter
will be severe.
| Worms were creeping around above
the surface a week ago, and the win
ter will not be severe.
The husk on the corn was very
loose ibis year, therefore the winter
will be short. but severe.
Onion shells were not very thick
this fall and the winter will not be
severe.
September 20 last the wind camo
from the south, and the winter will
be late and mild.
The weeds were plentiful and tall
this year, so there will be lots of
snow and ice.
The month of November was un-
usually warm and the winter will be
severe.
Oracle of the First Snow
One prediction said that at the first
snowfall of the season he takes a
pint of snow, puts it in a tin vessel
and then places the vessel on a hot
stove. He counts the number of bub-
bles that arise when the snow is melt
ing and the bubbles, he declared, will
correspond to the number of snow
falls for the season.
Ambrose Harter, one of the best
known prophets of upper Berks, said:
"Cats, raccoons and opossums all
have heavy fur this year, and the
winter will be hard one. There are
many other signs that the winter will
be severe. The leaves of the trees
and grape vines did not fall off until
after November IL, and this indicates
the winter will be long one. The
north side of the trees are covered
with thick layer of moss, and this
is another sign of severity. The do
nestle fowls molted early this year,
and the winter will be early and con-
tinue until late. The spleen of the
hogs is long and thin, and the winter
will be long"
Ezra NJ Kiefer said: "The recent
drought reminds me of the fact that
dry weather in the fall of the year is
always followed by hard winter. We
haven't had a drop of rain for sixty
eight days until week ago. | have
met a number of trappers and they
told me that muskrats and other ami
mails started to build their nests ear
lier than usual this year. This is
another sure sign of long winter"
Squirrels and chipmunks- are my
weather indicators said Absalom
Ely, who is SO, and who has been
forecasting the weather since a mere
boy. "They have laid away a large
supply of nuts this fall and agree
