Suit of Ejectment Fails

j. Fred Thompson had a suit of eject
ment before Squire Elkinton and a jury
last Tuesday, the first under the new
order OF things in Pemns Grove. A year
ago lie rented his lot at the foot of South
Broad street, at the Cove TO an Italian
verbally at So a month for one year.
The lot had a small building thereon to
which a small addition was to be made
and this addition was to belong to Mr..
thompson at the end of the year.
Since then the Italian has snblet tiIP
lot for $50 a month to another man who
has put larger buildings thereon. One
has been convicted for the Illegal sale oil
liquors on the premises and when the
assessor came the occupants said the
buildings belonged to Mr.. Thompson.
At the trial the Italians swore the lease
WAS for three years aud the jury gave
them the verdict.
A store and lodging house is run fol
which the lot was not rented.
Property owners may learn this lesson.

HERE COMES THE BOYS IN BLUE

HEkE OME I1E bO10 LIN Dl4OG
Throw up the window, Mother,
Here comes the boys in blue,
The real old boys of Sixty-two,
Brave heroes through and through.
Like the Greeks who fought at Marathon,
Their own life's blood they gave.
And the French who died at Austerlitz
Were not n whit more brave.
Their fathers, on the Brandywine,
Met sad defeat, It's true;
But it did not crush their spirit,
And twas a Waterloo.
I'm too feeble now to walk with them.
But my heart goes with them still,
And the memory of Antietam.'
Still gives me many a thrill.
For 1 was with them at Fredericksburg,
The Wilderness, and Bull Run. too,
And at Charlottesville and Shiloh,
And I know what they went through.
So hang out the old flag, mother,
Let our proud banner wave,
Let the boys in blue that emblem see,
They fought so hard to save.-Seleeted.

PEOPLES BANK WILL OPEN SOON

All the capital stock of the new Peo-
pies Bank of Penns Grove was paid in
last Monday and the approval of the
State Commissioner of Banking and Insur-
ance is hoped for soon with the expecta-
ton to begin business on December 18th.
The capital stock is $4,000 divided into
500 shares on each of which has been
paid in $110, making a surplus of $10,-
600, total 100000.
1t is chartered as a State Bank. 1t
is hoped that the law which authorizes
the chartering of trust companies will be
changed by the legislature at the ensuing
session to reduce the required capital
stock for a trust company from $780,
600 to $4,000. The purpose is to
change the State bank into a trust COM
pany.
The directors are Matthew Mitchell,
Frank Z. Gaventa, G. Percy Lummis,
Harry A. Dalbow, Lewis w. Cook, Rob-
inson f. Willis, Clarence Doughten, Fred

tary, G. p. Lummis treasurer, X. Il.

Charles w. Boutwell,, of DuLcannon,
Pa. has been selected as cashier and
Walter A. Hunt as bookkeeper.
The large inflow of money brought
from Europe for powder manufacturing
and the wide distribution of stock gives
an assurance that it will meet with sue
cess on the start.

ANOAd6 A0AAJ OC&
The enrolment in the second grade
rooms continue to increase. Miss Lon
don has IS on roll and Miss Wilson 63,
a total of 128 pupils, and an average at
tendance of ITO. There are only 81
desks.
The beginners have been put on half
time. At the approach of cold weather
several have stopped coming. The ay-
erage attendance is about 40. In Jan
uary an increased enrolment is expect
ed.
During November 206 were neither alb
sent nor tardy, which is a few less than
in October. We now offer a half holt
day to each pupil who is neither absent
nor tardy for a month, instead of giving
all in the room a half holiday when the
attendance is 80 per cent. By the for
mer method absentees received a holl-
day which was not deserved. Now each
pupil must earn it. This method will be
an incentive to increase. the attendance.
The teachers are e~ndeavoring to in
crease the interest in school work and
to raise the standard. Teachers take the
report cards to the parents of pupils who
are not making good records and are en-
deavoring to get the parents interested
in the education of their children. The
success of the children depends upon the
cooperation of the parents.
A meeting of the teachers is held
monthly. The monographs issued by the
State Board of Education are discussed.
REGULATIONS are conducted in different sub
jects for the benefit of all as well as for
the new teachers.
Twenty-nine pupils from Upper Penns
Neck Township attend Penns Grove
school. They live mostly near the Dor
ough limit above the road to Sharptown.
One from Lower Penns Neck and one
from Oldmans also attend.
Heretofore Upper Penns Neck Town
ship paid for the tuition of these, but
beginning this year the parents must pay.
DUPONT SCHOOL
in the Township is also increasing to the
limits of the eight-room building erect
ed last September. The school began
with 1875 pupils and now has 325. The
Eighth Grade began with II and now has
80. The First Grade room is full and
the Second is overlooking.
Families are moving into the Ruberoid
village as houses are completed. In a
few months another house will be needed.
The heating apparatus recently install
led in the school is worthy of notice.
Fresh air can be let in the windows and
blown over hot radiators and over a
water pan by a motor, thus giving fresh
moist air into each room.

BRUMBAUGH UNHAMPERED
BY CONTROL OF BOSSES
Governor-Elec Says He Will Serve
Public Without Dictation of Poll
ticians.

Governor-elect Martin G. Brumbaugh
told his old associates of the Philadelphia
schools last night that there is no truth
in the charge that he will countenance
the interference of political bosses with
his administration of Pennsylvania's at
fairs.
The Govemor-elect was guest of honor
at a dinner In the Belevue-Stratford,
given by the Philadelphia Schoolmens
Association. He paid a tribute to the
ability of his successor, DIR. William C.
Jacobs, in the superintendency Of public
schools.
"I am too old a dog, gentlemen. to learn
new tricks" said Doctor Brumbaugh,
land you may safely look upon my eight
years with you in Philadelphia as being
indicative of what to expect in the four
years to come, If my life is spared that
long. When I go to Harrisburg 10 days
from now / shall adopt the same methods
I have always applied to the tasks con-
fronting me.
'T believe that the public is my friend,
and the public shall enjoy my confidence
regarding every question that may arise.
During my term as your superintendent
OF schools I insisted upon Justice and i'm
partiality; and / shall insist upon justice
and lmpartiality in the future"

Whether the November Christening has
brought around old guard and reorgan-

oVertures can be told after the Jackson
Day dinner of Philadelphia Democrats to-
night at the Hotel Adelphia. Memories
OF the party's founder who defeated the
British at New Orleans 100 years ago to-
day will be the occasion of reunion of
forces, the less truculent members of the
party believe. Both sides will be there
in force, anyway
There will be City Solicitor Michael ].
Ryan, with State Chairman Roland s.
Norris who stuck closely to the cause of
Vance G. Mccormick in the primary fight
which defined the split last May: A.
Mitchell Palmer, who has been called un-
pleasant things by several who will sit
at the table with him tonight, and Col
lector of the Port Berry, who fought
under the Palmer-McCormlck banner

The hatchet may be buried, and 1t may
not. One reason why some of the Demo-
Gratis hope to accomplish a peace to-
night is the truce arranged lately in the
torn factions of the Democratic club at
10Th and Walnut streets. DIR. w. Horace
Hoskins, the president and leader of one
side, will be toastmaster tonight, and
Roland S. Morris, like n great many
others, will make a speech. Roland Nor
