SHERIFF TO SELL
The LOGAN Inn
New Hope Hosiery Dating Back to
Colonial Days to Go Under
the Hammer Tomorrow.
LIQUOR BUSINESS LOSING OUT

The Logan Inn, hosiery dating
back to Colonial days, will be sold at
sheriff's sale on Friday morning at
IL o'clock, at Doylestown, to satisfy
a mortgage given by Harry M. Klair,
the real owner of the land. The
building contains rs rooms and all
conveniences. Since Mr.. Klair went
to farming near Wycombe, John Nc
Cauley has been in possession. What
effect the sale will have upon the
future licensing of the place remains
to be seen, but the Delaware House,
block away, has been without one
two years, and isn't likely ever to be
licensed again. Selling few years
ago for about $21 900, to which i'm
provements amounting to$4 900 have
been added, the highest bid at re-
cent public sale, was So 500. The own
ers are holding it for $4,000, for
private sale.
It's getting to be long distance
between drinks in this section of the
country. Southwark it's eleven miles
to Yardley; southwest, 10 miles to
Wycombe: west five miles to La
haska; northwest, seven miles to Car
versville, and up the Delaware, seven
miles to Lumberville.

License Again Withdrawn.

John L. Smith again withdrew his
application for the York Street
House in Lambertville, Tuesday eve
ming, after making the second at
tempt this year. Upon both occa-
sions a remonstrance was prepared,
and at this meeting it was offered,
but had no effect through the with
drawal of the application.
There are many who think that
the York Street House will never a.
gain be licensed, as whole year will
disqualify it on account of its prox-
unity to St. Andrews church. Under
such circumstances it would be class
ed as new place, and could not be
granted.
For several years it was run by
Joseph B. Atchley, who has now re-
moved to Trenton.

Chamber Of Commerce Active.

There are those in Lambertville
who are disposed to complain that
the Chamber of Commerce is doing
nothing and of no substantial benefit.
The secretary states that he is now
in correspondencewithtwo applicants
for favorable proposition to locate.
One of them simply asks for informa-
ton looking towards the securing of
a building with railraod siding and
other facilities. Of course, that
party gets all the information at
once.
The other proposition is from a
going concern. rated very high;
ready to consider a proposition to
move to better their conditions; now
employ over 500 people, with a
weekly pay roll of $5500.00, and
desire to increase. They simply ask
us what inducement we would be
willing to make to secure this in
dustry.
In view of the support given by
our citizens to the Chamber of Com
merce. and the interest, which they
take in its work, this note is pub
lished for the purpose of securing
an expression of opinion.

REAL SUCCESS
Evangelistic Meetings Have Added
Over 100 Members to the
Lambertville Churches.
ITS MANY DIFFERENT SPEAKERS

With more than one hundred new
members already added to the local
church memberships through the
Asher-Rockwell evangelistic meet
ings now under way in Lambertville,
its success seems assured.
1t has been decided to continue
the holding of the Asher-Rockwell
evangelistic meetings in the First
Baptist church, instead of week
each at the Methodist and Presby-
terrain churches, as originally planned.
The difficulty in moving the plat
forms for the choir and the other
accessories was considered too great
to warrant the change being made.
More than a dozen hit the trail"

when DR.. Ira c. Leedom, of Tren-
ton, told the story of his life and
conversion before large audience.

of the New Hope M. E. Church,
preached most interesting sermon

rem gave lighthouse service, which
was most effective.

ian church, preached at the evening
service.

Supervisor Tabor's report offers
some interesting features. He re-
ports that school books are so mark
ed now that pupils can be held
definitely accountable for them when
removed from thesschoels.
Everything possible has been done
to slick up" the schools, and the
books and supplies have been neatly
arranged in cupboards. With the
completion of additions and improve
ments now under way and contem-
plated, the school facilities will be
adequate for some years to come,
he says.
The second floor room of the high
school addition will make an ideal
commercial room adjoining the pres
ent science room will do for science
laboratory, retaining the present
science room as a recitation room
only. These changes, together with
the alteration of the halls, the pro-
viding of teachers rest room, and
a stock room, and the introduction
of running water, electric lights and
gas, will make the high school plant
capable of meeting most educational
requirements very well, according
to the report.
Paper towels have not not only
improved the sanitary conditions,
but shown actual economy in ex-
pense. The installation of bubbling
fountains and liquid soap will add
to the sanitary conditions.
The growth Of the schools is shown
by the statement that fifty-six more
pupils were enrolled in February
this year than last year; SO more
than two years ago. 1t is expected
that course of study for all grades
will be arranged by another year,
so that there may be no duplication
of work.
Professor Tabor suggests that the
offering of prizes for good high
school work, by the people of the
city, as done in some other places,
would prove powerful stimulus.
He also suggests that the ultimate
consolidation of the school and public
libraries of the city would be a gooc
thing, and avoid much duplication
of books for which there is only {
moderate call. although very neces
sary to have. Many new books have
been added during the year; Others
have been rebound, and few hope
lessly damaged, were discarded. Owe,
200 volumes have been added dur
ing the present school year, due t.
economical purchase from the stat
and local library funds available.
