One on tho Judge.

A judge, who used to wear very long waving hair and heavy beard, one day was on his way to court when he was accosted by little street boot black, with an exceedingly dirty face, with the customary "Shine, sir?" He was very importunate and the judge being impressed with the terrible state of the boys face, said: q don't want a shine, but if you'll go and wash your face, I'll give you sixpence." "All right, sir" "Well, let me see you do it." The boy went to a neighbor- ing fountain and made his abiutions. Returning, he held out his hand for the sixpence. The judge said: "Well, you earnel the money. Here it is." But the boy said: "I don't want your money, old fellow. You can take i, and have your hair cut" and forth. with scampered off.
 The Sumatran Widows Flag.
 good many formalities must be ob. served by the women of Sumatra be. fore they can lay aside their widows weeds. Iminediately after the bus, bands death the disconsolate widow places flagstaff in front of her door, and on this flag is raised. As long as the flag remains untorn by the wind etiquette forbids her to marry, but with the appearance of the first rent she can lay aside her moI:niEg garb, begin to take notice, and to receive offers of marriage. It would seem, therefore, that much depends on the strenuous ness of the season, the favorableness ot the gales, and the quality of the material used in the construction of the flag.

Stimulus for Patriots

The official proclamation designat-
ing June 5, Military Enrolment Day,
as legal holiday, was issued by Gov
ernor Edge yesterday, following his
proclamation some days ago along the
same line. The Governor urges the
citizens to fittingly celebrate the occa-
sion i'll appreciation of the sacrifices to
be made by the young men. "Get
busy" he says, land help organize
your community into a cauldron of
patriotic devotion. There should not
be single municipality in the state,
no matter how small. without some
kind of patriotic celebration. 1t will
be the greatest day in the lives of these
men who offer up their all to their
country. and the smallest thing that
those who are exempt can do is to
show their appreciation of the others.
The Governor further suggested that
it would be much better to concen-
trate the energy Of the people on the
celebration of June 5, than to celebrate
this date and Flag Day, June IA, also.

Base Ball.

0ooO DoAAs
Mount Holly had pratice game
with the Tigers. Saturday, in which
the former won by the score of three to
two. All of Mount Holly's team was
in position except Forbes. Shemely,
the new third baseman, played like a
veteran, and will make good. The
other players were in their usual good
form and will be all right when the
time comes for actual business.
Next Saturday the season will open
with game between Mount Holly and
Shamrock, of Burlington. The latter
team has always given a good contest
and is said to be strengthened this
year.
On Decoration day the management
of the Mount Holly team expects to
have a very interesting programme.
In addition to the ball game there will
be flag raising, and other exercises.
The Mount Holly management an
nounces that games will begin precise
ly at $50. There will not be any wait
ing for players or any other causes for
delays that kept the games from be-
ginning on time last year. If the
regular players are not on the field
when the time arrives for beginning
the game substitutes will be put on.
Last year a junior and senior Y. M.
c. A. base ball league was organized to
meet the need of the boys and young
men. This year at the request of the
younger boys junior league has been
formed with Columbus, Delanco, and
Medford Associations and the Bow
Scouts of Burlington as the four COM
peting teams. Owing to the fact that
many members of the senior groups
are working on farms "a senior league
has been done away with for this year.
The cup offered by the county COM
mittee, was won last year by Delanco.

Profit balance available for
other school purposes

The remark is frequently heard,
when the school money received from
the state is spoken OF, that it is raised
by local taxation and is merely return
ed to the districts. This is true. 1t
should be remembered, however, that
if every school in Mount Holly should
be closed, the state school tax assessed
upon Northampton township would
not be reduced one penny. And the
township would lose nearly $4,000 now
returned by the state to the high
school alone.
