VERY POPULAR
Lambertville's New Strand Photo
play House Attracting Many
Visitors From Country.
THE FINEST PICTURES SHOWN

A never failing crowd of people is
one of the proofs that Lambertville'
new Strand Theatre is a success.
People who seldom or never at
tended moving picture shows before
have already attended several times.
Night after night more than a
thousand persons have visited these
shows and expressed their pleasure.
The pictures thrown on the huge
screen are not only acted by the
worlds greatest movie stars, but are
the clearest and brightest ever seen
in this section of the country.
Comfort is the keynote of the
Strand owners, Charles C. Hildinger
and Philip PAPER, and they had this
in mind when constructing the build
ing.
Seven hundred mahogany opera
chairs afford degree of comfort
such as was never before dreamt of
by the most enthusiastic movie fan.
The high ceiling, roof ventilators
and many windows afford a purity
of air rarely found in theatres, either
in this city or elsewhere.
Many people had an idea that the
location on Coryell Street was poor
one, but almost everyone now con-
cedes that it is about the best in the
city, both as to convenience and APP
pearance.
The owners are the most extensive
advertisers in Lambertville or in the
Coryell's Ferry Community, and are

government is wondering why agri-
culture is falling below its recent
standard and why the country chill
dren are leaving their own occupa-
ton to work in the city. They
realize also also that the boy from
the city will not take up farming,
therefore the number of farmers are
lessening every year and we are los
ing ground in agriculture.
Why not then establish an agricul-
ture course in the High School where
every one that wishes would have a
chance to take it? If this course
should be established in the High
Schools, both girls and boys could
get some education in that line and
therefore become interested; and no
doubt many would follow this pro-
fession as means of livelihood in
after life.
In this world of progress women
are well educated and they refuse
to marry farmer and live on a
farm where they have no chance to
use their education to any advant-
age. The farmer refuses to farm
if he has no one to look after the
household affairs.
Since the amount of farm land is
diminishing the population becom-
ing large and farmers getting scarce,
something has to be done to protect
agriculture. There is no better place
to educate both men and women
than the High School. This course
would help protect the future of
agriculture. There would be prac-
tically no expense in having this
course with the exception of buying
tools with which to start.
One of the greatest expenses of
farming is the hiring of help, and
this would not be necessary in the
High School, as the help would be
provided by the pupils themselves.
The money from the sale of the
produce, since the selling would be
done by the children themselves,
would be sufficient to defray the ex-
penses of this course.
Farming under the best conditions
is the ideal profession that a man
can practice for the welfare of his
mind and body; and to be under the
best conditions, a farmer must have
the training provided by school or
college.
