Real MeanIno Of Love.

When love is heard inviting more
trust. more love. the encouragement to
trust. to love, goes beyond the rehuke
that our love is so little. and we take
heart to conilde in the love that Is
saying, Give me thine heart" expect
ing that it will impart itself TO US. and
enable us to give the response of,love
which It desires. For indeed It must
be with the blessed purpose to enable
US to love him that our God bids US
love him; for he knows that no love
but what he himself quickens in us can
love him. Therefore always feel the
call to love a gracious promise OF
strength to love, and marvel not at
your own deadness, but trust In him
who qulckeneth the dead. John McL
Campbeh.

SECOND MUSICAL
SHOW OF SEASON
Entitled soc in the Shade" Marie Ca
hill and Richard Carrie in Leading
Roles

This Friday and Saturday evenings
and Saturday afternoon, what is
nearly a brand new musical comedy
will be seen at the Apollo Theatre.
1t is of a kind with which the public
is not familiar, and MIR. Daniel v.
Arthur, who is sponsor for the at
traction, believes it will prove an in
novation. 1t is a musical comedy mi
nus the slap-stick and oarse gag,
with what is expected to prove a
logical, interesting story, sustained
throughout and with music of a new
character. The title of the new piece
is $50 in the Shade" written by Guy
Bolton, author of "The Rule of Three"
and "The Fallen Idol" The locale
is one of the Philippine Islands, and
the time the present. Frequent COM
edy situations and surprises abound,
and the author has woven a complex
which are not explained until the end
of the final act.
The score of $50 in the Shade" was
written by Jerome Kern, a rising
young composer, who, lately wrote
which was seen at the Apollo the past
season. Mr.. Kern made a study of
native Filipino music, and has en-
ployed it quite extensively in writing
the music for $50 in the Shade" He
believes this character of music may,
in a measure, supplant our ragtime
airs when the public has a chance to
hear it. The lyrics of the new piece
were written by Harry B. Smith, the
well known liberettist.
Miss Marie Cahill and Mr.. Richard
earle, two of the best known artists
in musical comedy, are the co-stars
of $50 in the Shade,' and will be sup
ported by a cast of unusual excellence,
including Victor Morley, Edward Mar
tindel. Fred. Walton, Pedro de Cordo-
ba, Florence Dillon, Jene Newcombe,
Eleanor Henry and Dorothy Arthur.

DOOM FOR DEER AND HARE
determination of Game Animals
Planned to Avert the Annual
Great Forest Fires.

determination of deer and rabbit
in New Jersey is planned by the state
forestry commission as the only eff
fective means of protecting the state
woodlands against forest fires such
as destroyed nearly 100000 worth of
property during the first two weeks
of the resent cunning season.
The commission decided to seek the
cooperation of the state fish and
game commission in procuring legisla-
ton revoking the closed season for
deer and rabbit. In the discussion
preceding the adoption of this resolu-
ton it was freely admitted that such
a course would ultimately result in
the determination of deer and rabbits,
which are now to be found in con-
siderable numbers in various parts
of the state.
That the action of the forestry com
mission will stir up the opposition of
most of the 10000 hunters with which
New Jersew is credited seems almost
certain. On the other hand, farmers
who say their crops are destroyed by
deer and rabbits may line up on the
other side and make the fight inter
esting. It is scarcely conceivable
that the fish and game commission,
whose every effort has been directed
toward procuring greater restrictions,
will join with the forestry board

the evening.
Mr.. Joseph Krewson, the engineer
of the water works, was the victim of
a painful accident last Wednesday af-
ternoon, some of the machinery .hav-
ing ripped his hand open, making an
ugly cash, the shock of the injury
rendering him unconscious for a short
lapse of time. DR.. Munro was called
at once and after taking several stit-
ches in the injured hand and bandag-
ing the same, gave Mr.. Krewson a lit
tie relief from the terrible pain. His
many friends wish him a speedy re-
covery from the effects of the injury.
Mr.. Abel E. Garwood was the guest
of Philadelphia friends owe the week
end. While in the city, he took the
opportunity of hearing one of the SER
mons of Billy Sunday, the noted evan
gelist.
Miss Sarah Albertson, of English
Greek, and Miss Naomi Krewson were
entertained at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Clarence Krewson, of Pleasant
vile, last Wednesday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest Rockelman en-
t~ertained a number of their friends
last Tuesday evening. Music and
games were the features of the eve
ming. Those present were: Mr.. and
Mrs. J. P. Dorland, Miss Sarah AL

They will reside with Mrs. Lovett's
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Jos. Krewson.
Miss Grace NJ. Davies was hostess
to a number of her class mates from
Atlantic City at dinner last Saturday
evening. 1t proved to be a delightful
affair.
The hand of death removed from
our midst one of the most lovable
characters, when Mrs. Laura Wilson,
the aged mother of Mrs. Joseph
.Krewson, passed away last Sunday
evening, after a long illness. To
know her was to love her and her gen
tie and serene personality will be sad
ly missed by her many friends. Mrs.
Krewson has the sympathy of the

FARM DEMONSTRATION NOTES.
Written by the Farm Demonstration
of Atlantic County, Elwood Doug
lass.
Notice to Farmers.

1t is very urgent that the farmers
this wear should be very careful in
the selection of their seed potatoes.
1t is recommended that they buy only
seed from growers that has been in
spected. The past summer the much
dreaded Powdery Scab and European
Wart Disease were found in this coun-
try, and the Experiment Station
sends out a warning to all potato
growers to treat their seed before
planting.
Treatment:
% Examine seed to see that the
tubers are free from scab, canker or
rot.
(2) Examine after cutting for
black streaks or spots, and throw out
all that show any indications of dis
ease.
90 After making sure you have all
clean seed, treat the seed potatoes
with formalin or formaldehyde, l pit.
to 80 gal. of water for two hours.
The bags should also be treated. 1t
would also be we'll to rotate crops, not
grow potatoes on the same field two
years in succession.
l would suggest cooperative buy
ing in the Grange or otherwise, as
a large order will demand the atten-
ton of the dealers more than a small
order.
