More Epizootic Victims

Alvin Nipe's bull at Charles E. Harbe-
sons near ~Perkintown, which was sus-
pected OF giving the foot and mouth dis
ease to Eli Fumes and Mr.. Nipe's cattle
and hogs, developed the plague last We'd
nesday morning. Strange to say the cali
which had been inoculated with saliva
from the bull did not became sick.
The bull was
at Mr.. Harbeson's two weeks. 1t is now
believed that he did not inoculate the
other cattle and hogs, but that he got it
from them. The origin OF the disease in
this region continues a mystery.
This Friday morning the state author
tiles killed the bull which belonged 20
Mr.. Nipe. also four cows, two calves, two
hogs and three pigs which belonged to
Mr.. Harbeson.
The State authorities were to arrive by
the middle of this week and disinfect the
premises at Mr.. Zanes's and Mr.. Nipe's.
Armed guards are at each farm and the
farmers are not allowed to even spread
manure OH the land. The delay in clean
ing up the premises and stopping work
Oh the farm during pleasant weather is
provoking to those Ill quarantine.
Placing all Salem county under quaran-
tine and not nearer territory in 6louces-
Ser county is provoking to some who
think only a region near the Injected an.
imais seems reasonable.
This foot and mouth disease is similar
80 the epizootic epidemic of about thirty.
five or forty years ago which prevailed
among lores, cattle and sheep. Some
think il is the same bacterial disease
which prevailed then. There was nc
quarantine then nor killing of infected
nor well animals which had been in con
tact with those i'll.

Board of Education Meeting

The monthly meeting of Penns Grove
Board Of Education WAS held Monday
evening, Messrs. Cunningham, president;
L. E. hunt, S. M. Hunt, ii. S. Barber,
and W.NP. Denny were present.
The report OF supervisor w. D. Snyder
showed that 10 pupils had enteredin Nov
ember, making the enrolment 597. The
average attendance was 500, or 81 per
cent, which was considered very good.
Days possible attendance 1868, days
872l9, days of absence 1913. This was a
big Improvement over past years. In
November 1918, there were 1868 days alb
sence and i'll 1912, 1888. The activity OF
the truant officer and the promise of a
part OF a day off to the room which
makes an average OF 95 per cent in atten-
dance partly accounted for a better at
tendance.
There are some who fail to be on time
and ignore bringing excuses. When
pupils ieel too large to attend school and
take little interest they are a detriment
and the school is better off without them.
Otherwise the discipline is improving and
a better school spirit is abroad.

been desired for seven months arrived
at IL O'Clock last Saturday after the storm
had been brewing for a week. Inter-
mittent rain fell until Wednesday morn
ing when The depth showed that 81 inches
of water had fallen. The northeast wind
on which the rain came caused much
damage to properties at seashore resorts.
The sun beamed thru the clouds once
OH Thursday forenoon and once in the
afternoon. Muggy, lowery weather con-
times with the temperature between 40
aud 90.
The dashing waves did considerable
damage along the river shore. Three
breaks were made in the upper side of
Penns Grove pier near the shore, from
ten to fifteen feet long each. On the
north shore near the Borough limit stone
~huIkheads were undermined and washed
down. A breach fifty feet wide was
made in the river bank at the sluice race
OF the Pitman meadow above Penns
Grove. A dredge arrived on Tuesday
to ill it in.
nd was also lifted onto the fronts of
adjacent properties.
Notwithstanding the heavy rain fall
some report that water has not appeared
in some wells which have been dry for
several weeks. The thirsty earth absorb
ed the water, because of the great def
cheney.

PrudentiaI's New Form of Insurance.

The Prudential Insurance Company
is again pioneering the way in lite
insurance. 1t has recently announced
a now Industrial policy which is pay
able in weekly instalments instead OF
in one sum. 1t is the belief of the
Company that there is a widespread
field OF usefulness for an Industrial
policy providing for the payment of
a certain amount each week in order
to tide household over a reasonable
period, until the members have had a
chance to readjust themselvs to the
changed conditions after the breadwin-
her is gone. By the terms of this new
policy the beneficiary named in the
policy receives the amount of insur-
ance III regular weekly instalments for
thirteen or Gwenty-six weeks, as the in
sured elects at the time of his appli-
cation. Such a policy is in accord
with the original purpose of The Pru-
dental, as shown by its charter, winch
sets forth that one OF its objects is to
provide for the wants OF widows and
families after the death OF the insured.
1t is not intended that the I new
offering shall replace the regular In
dustriaI policy, payable in one sum
but that it shall be supplementary
to it, thus making the protection of
the family more complete than has
hitherto been possible for Industrial
policyholders,
Under the Prudential Weekly In
ONE Industrial ploicy wage-earners
can Assure to those dependent upon
thor earning in any way tor sup
port, the continuance, for a reason
abb time, OF at least a part of the
income which death would otherwise
take from them.
