ternoon and evening. There will be no

act play that Miss Taylor did several
years ago at a charity matinee in New

pleased the audiences SO much that
she and MI. Manners decided to put
it away until they had time to enlarge
it into a full sized play. That has now
been done and it's first presentation in

Junior Red Cross in Absecon.
The Junior Red Cross is a depart
ment of the American Red Cross, made
up of school children. The Junior
Red Cross is organized not as indi.
vidual pupils, but as a school unit,
The basis of organization is 25 cents
per pupil. We have 14O pupils in the
Absecon school, that means we must
raise 25 cents for each pupil, or $35.
When this amount is raised every
child will be a member of the Junior
Red Cross regardless of what amount
he contributed. We ask the children
to bring whatever amount they can
| We ask the people who have rb chill
dren in school to contribute to help us
form a Junior Red Cross, so that our
boys and girls may "do their bit"
Contributions may be sent through

HUBIN SAYS

Editors Pleasantville Press
Too bad the fatal grade crossing ac-
cident the past week. But it is no
fault of the Railroad companies. They
offered to eliminate their deadly cross
ings in PIeasantville, but there was OBJ
jections offered to their removal. But
by keeping on killing people our citi.
zen will some day wake up and act
for their elimination. Same with the
sewerage. They will wait till a Ty-
phoid epidemic breaks out and the I'm.
dertakers get busy, then they will see
their mistake, after all the injury has
been done. l know for a positive fact
of one place of employment in Pleas
antville that intended to build a new
plant to give employment to 500 or
more, will not invest a single penny
until our city has sewerage. When
the State Board of Education mem
bers were here looking over the sites
for the new Normal School, they told
10 pioihiy thob thCy "Ouio w COlloio
er Pleasantville with it's unsanitary
conditions as the proper place to bring
400 or 500 pupils, and that the place
was unhealthy on account of the ty.
phoid breeding cesspools. Then to
think that our citizens must put up
with these unsanitary conditions. ]
can say it's a disgrace to our we'll
governed municipality, and sewerage
our city should have regardless of any
conditions. The citizens and taxpay
ers of Jul city should insist on sewer
age. If the city is unhealthy for the
Normal School scholars, how about
our own citizens? We should do ev
erything possible to Keep our city free
from typhoid epidemics, sickness ant
disease, and have sewerage for oul
hustling and progressive city of Pleas
antville.
