The many autos from a distance get
tied up at the East End and wander
around the streets there. very much like
a eat chasing its tail. The school house

a man was ~stringing out all the
available swear words that he could
think of in the vicinity of the com
munity house recently. A man stand
ing nearby and within hearing. stepped
up to. him and said: You come into the
office tomorrow morning and get your
discharge. 1ou know who l am. don't
you!' Now just for a little show Of
vile smartness he loses his job. His
family feels the blunt of it. Does it

hot weather does not bother Satan in
his efforts to rule Carney's. His sat

never sleeps.
The Carney's camp meeting opened
on last Saturday night in the tent back
of the post office. Very nice chairs
and large platform and organ makes it
very inviting. Rev. f. J. Peters, of
Penns Grove. preached on Saturday
night and Sunday afternoon; Rev. Mr..
Morton On Sunday evening. The leader
of dupont Band was sick. hence no
band. The organ felt some sympathy
for the leader-or cranky, and went on
Il strike and it would not make any
sound. SO they just had to start the
songs themselves. Billy Sunday books
