we favor the development upon a
systematic scale OF the means al

ministration to assist laborers
throughout the nation TO seek and

in the home, or wherever men or
women employ or are employed.
The free employment bureau in
the federal building at Indianapolis,
the Indiana branch Of the federal
employment system which is being
rapidly extended TO cover all the
states, furnishes an excellent ex-
ample of what may be accomplished
where efficiency of management is
observed.
The fee system being eliminated
there is no incentive to put over"
such things as have placed many
ordinary private employment agen-
cies under suspicion. The federal
bureau. sustained by federal APP
preparation, seeks TO bring together
the man seeking the job and the job
seeking the man. 1t was at the in
stigation of Sen. John w. Kern that
the Indianapolis branch was opened
several months ago. 1t is under
the management of j. s. Sherman.
At no time during the past year has
he been without jobs to offer. Even
working in face of the fact that
laborerS are scarce, Mr.. Sherman
has made one Of the best showings
of any bureau in the country,
chasing such places as New York.
Chicago and Boston for first honors.
The record of the Indiana bureau
is between 500 and 600 men con-
nected with paying positions within
a month. During the busy season
on the farms over the state. Mr..
Sherman was able in 1915 TO supply
the unusual temporary demand for
help. The railroads have found they
get best results in appealing
through this channel for help, and
the record of the Indiana bureau is
that in a single day, by beating the
bushes and securing all the known
avenues of supply. ITO men were

construction crews.

Asher-Rockwell Revival Closes.

The Asher-Rockwell Revival closed
its three weeks series of meetings in
the First Baptist church of Lambert
vile Sunday evening with a total of
500 converts, and over 400 reconse-
crations. The free will offering
given the Rev. William Asher amount
ed to $500, which did not come up
to that received in Pennington, but
when it is remembered that Mr..
Asher was able to preach less than
one week out of three, it was proper
tionately much larger than that re-
ceived in the county seat town.
George P. Rockwell, the choir
leader and an active spirit in the
revival both at the church and in
personal work during the daytime,
received several offerings, amounting
altogether o quite a neat sum.
Miss Ethel Myers, the pianist, who
came from Pennington, also received
money gifts.
The choir members gave Mr.. Rock
well $50 in gold, and Miss Myers
$40. Mr.. Rockwell also received
$50 at the hairpin factory, and Miss
Myers gold ring, besides presents
from the pottery, the Lambertville
Rubber company's plant, the High
School and others.
All of the services, including the
mems meeting in the afternoon Sun
day, were packed. Mr.. Asher spoke
each time, and he did not mince
words in what he had to say. At the
morning service h e said that he
wished he had the list of city license
signers SO that he might read them
from the pulpit, and he scored dane
ing, card playing and theatre going.
That the revival has been a success
cannot be doubted, as it has added
largely to the church memberships,
and has aroused wide interest in re-
ligious matters.
Mr.. Asher went to Baltimore to
rest up, and be treated for his throat,
and Mr.. Rockwell and Miss Myers
will go to the Coryell's Ferry Re-
vival, which began at Newhope on
Wednesday evening, and continue
for two weeks or more in Rockers
hall. The Asher party was to have
gone to Ringoes, from this city, but
owing to the condition of his throat
this was cancelled, and Evangelist
Joseph Rowan, who has been meet
ing with success in the upper end of
Hunterdon county, is coming to
Ringoes, instead.

AUDITORS REPORT
MADE LOTS OF TALK

The delayed report of the account
ants who examined the city's books
was submitted at last nights special
meeting of Lambertville council, and
while it was perfectly tame as to dis
closures, one of its balance sheets
aroused the ire of Tax Receiver A.
Wilson Muirheid until he expressed
his opinion of the whole matter in
rather picturesque language.
At the close of the year ending
December 81, according to the re-
port, Receiver Muirheid had collect
ed some $4,000 more in taxes than
he had turned over to City Treasurer
Judson L. Fields, but he had the
money in the bank and it has since
been paid over in full, together with
additional tax moneys received. Mr..
Muirheid claimed that it was an at
tempt to injure his reputation, and
all the attempts of President Andrew
Foltz and Councilman Clinton B. OBJ
linger to sooth his ruffied feelings
awaited nothing. They explained, at
length, that the report did not say
that he had Incorporated this
amount, but simply that he had not
turned it over to the City Treasurer
on the date in question. He claimed
that the report should show it as
paid, because he had it in the
bank" Mr.. Muirheid said that he
turned money over to the city trea-
surer when asked for it.
Former Tax receiver Harry K.
Kramer's account showed a discrep-
ancy of $3.50 66, which according to
the report, was due to errors and
interest charges. 1t seems that the
city never charged any interest
against its tax receivers, and when
interest money was collected it was
turned in as taxes" Mr.. Kramer
asked for some information on the
subject, and the matter will doubt
less be thrashed out to everybony's
satisfaction later on. He stated that
he turned this money in, but it seems
that is was credited as taxes, and
not as interest.
The report showed that the city's
Indebtedness on December 81 was
$45, 362.S5, of which SIS 1862 85 was
borrowed in anticipation of school
bond moneys. leaving $29, 500 as the
actual city debt. Against this as
assets are credited $40, 748.04 taxes
due, Sc, 800 in loans to fire companies
ieaving an actual debt in excess of
possible assets, of $2,451.96. No
mention was made of the city's pro-
perty as an asset, so far as read.
On the vote to accept the report
and have it published, the five Re-
publicans voted for it, and three
Democrats present against it. The
vote to pay Alexander Hunter & Co.
the accountants, $500 for their SER
Vices, was passed without dissent.
