as far east as New London old diaries
tell us that "the ice extended into the
Sound as far as could be seen from
the town and Fishers island was unit
ed to the mainland by solid bed of
ice." On March % of that remark
able spring the Boston News Letter
reports that people living on Thomp-
sons island had crossed over to Dor
chester to church on the ice for the
fl5 preceding Sundays.
AS late as July 9 an old letter writ
ten from New London, Ct, says that
on the east side of the Connecticut
river a body of ice as large as two
carts can draw still remained, clear
and solid as at Christmas time, and
the Quaint old letter writer artlessly
adds: at might lay there a month
longer were it not that so many re-
sort out of curiosity to drink punch
made out of it." On July II snow was
still to be found lying in mass near
ly four feet thick in the town of
Ipswich.
Probably the most marvellous record

AZ is the statement made by Alonzo
Lewis. author of the annals of
Lynn, Mass" that Francis Lewis, the
signer of the Declaration of Indepen-

tells that Mr.. Shepherd, pastor of the
church from 1880 to 1920, was so much
distur bed by the spread of Quakerism
that he appointed a day for fasting
and prayer regarding it. A large part
of my family name were of that sect,
and tradition in the family runs that
Mr.. Shepherd tearing that the wife of
one of them had been attending that
meeting rode out on his horse to in

the man came out to greet him; when

stead of shaking the devil out of the
wife he shook that same devil into the

Lynn Quaker Meeting.
The Fathers had some good things;
perhaps some better than some OF
ours; but we have many more better
than they; and one is to recognize the
good in each other, magnify that and
enjoy it. as I do my beloved Quaker

We have weather every day and it
is easy to talk about it; some times
we have, so to speak, more of it than
at other times. | have just been look
ing through history of a coast town
of New England, and was interested
in noticing how often note was made
of the fact of cold winter, a deep
snow, big gale with high tide, ship
wrecks, tornadoes. houses un-roofed,
while many things l would much
rather have known about are barely
named.
But l recalled what my mother,
born in 1908. used to tell me of 1916;
in New England just one hundred
years ago along the sea-coast there
was frost every month of the year;
and in the autumn early killing frosss.
MANY of the crops were destroyed and
most of them badly injured; she told
me that the beans were so injured that
when sorting them for cooking it was
not the poor ones picked out, but the
good ones; just few in handful
An old man who was quite lad at
that time told how his father watched
the night grow cold, and seeing that
the frost was nipping the green corn
got his boys UP long before daylight,
yoked the oxen, and with every team
they could muster. went through the
corn field, breaking off the ears and
spread the ears over the mown field,
hoping to dry the corn in the sun; but
its twas in milk" and the frost had
ruined it, it turning black before night,
a complete loss. 1t was long known
in New England as "the famine year,"
now with our methods of transporta-
ton such an event would have very
little effect.
We need not think we of the inter-
ior are the only ones who have had
uncommon weather; our western
neighbors have had it, plenty of it..
And the Atlantic sea-board has had
severe cold and deep snow; it has re-
suited in digging out the records of
other hard winters, and the Spring
field (Mass.) Republican gives the
following interesting facts:
The winter Of l741-42 was colder
than any New England winter which
had preceded it, since the colonists
landed at Plymouth. and in no year
since has cold so intense or pro-
tracted been recorded. AS early as
November Is. 1741, snow fell over
the whole country, and next April it
was still covering the fence rows.
An issue of the Boston Post Boy
for January IL, 1742, reports a tent
erected on the Charles river as an
inn for travellers. who frequented this
great frozen highway. The Boston
News Letter for March E of the same
year relates how people ride every
day from Stratford Ct, to Long Is
land. which is three leagues" Even

IMPROVEMENTS MADE
At STOCK YARDS

A number of changes. Improvements
and engagements are under way at
the Union Stock Yards. The present
yards, while the largest in the north
west, are not large enough for the
horse and mule business. A number
of new pens are now being built.
The business at the Union Stock
Yards has grown rapidly since the
yards were built. OF course the de-
mand for horses in the European war
is in part responsible for the present
business, but without the war bust
ness, there has been strong, steady
increase year by year.

BOYS AND GIRLS IMPROVE
MENT CLUB INAUGURATED
Club Organized in Caldwell To Work
For Civic Improvement.


Plans for putting the Boys and
Girls Improvement Club OF Caldwell
into active operation are rapidly crys-
talizing, and every citizen of the city
and surrounding country is earnestly
solicited to take an active interest in
the work of the boys and girls.
Plans Nightly Endorsed.
The Superintendent Of Schools is
receiving letters and verbal endorse
ments which speak in highest terms
of the work that is being prepared for
this organization to accomplish during
the coming summer.
The Mayor and the Chairman of the
Park Committee of the City Council
have commended the plan as follows:
We take great pleasure i'll COM
mending the good work you are un-
dertaking in forming civic improve
ment clubs among the boys and girls
of our city. The work as outlined by
you will result in identifying many
places in our city. Aside from the
direct good derived because of the i'm
provement OF this property, the work
will have tendency to increase civic
pride, not only among the boys and
girls but the fathers and mothers will
also be benefited by its influence.
"Thc greatest good which you will
accomplish will be that which ACQUIRES
to the children themselves. 1t will
be an excellent way to keep them oc-
cupicd and interested during the va
cation period, thus eliminating OPP
portunities for mischief. and be the
means of making better citizens,
which is the great thing after all is
said and done.

lingness to cooperate in this excellent
work in every way possible way

Prizes and Money Offered.

That the people OF Caldwell realize
the good of this movement is evinccd
by the fact that many organizations
and individuals have already offered
money and prizes to assist in carry
ing this work through. What is need
ed more than anything else just at
present is the offer of vacant lots that
may be transformed into garden plots
for flowers and vegetables. 1t is
hoped that every unsued piece Of
ground in Caldwell may be placed I'M
der cultivation this summer. Every
property owner can help to improve
the city by placing land at the dis
posal of children who have no place
to make gardens.

FINED IN JUSTICE COURT

Yesterday afternoon VIM. Jackson,
colored. was fined 500 and COSTS in
Justice Whites court 1t appears
from the evidence given that Jackson
who is horse trainer at the fair
grounds, and who has been here the
past six months, thought he was en-
titled to more of the roadway south
of the Northwestern viaduct where
he met Nels Winters. Winters kept
to his side of the road but the colored
man disputed his right and picked up
brick bat with which he struck Win
tiers, inflicting serious wound which
might easily have proved fatal. How
ever he Is recovering and II Is not
thought that he will receive any per-
manent injury from the wound.
Audubon's total colored population
numbers two. and both Of them have
been extremely reckless with brick
bats within the past month. 1t would
be to Audubon's credit to decrease
IT'S colored population rather than to
increase II.
Jackson was unable to pay his fine
and was given his choice of laying II
out In jail or to leave town. ss*
