1.-THE THREE BEARS"
operetta Given by Pupils, Of Second
and Third Grades at Gymnasium
on Tuesday Afternoon

The operetta. THE. Three Bears,
was given by the children of the sec
ond and third grades of the central
building on Tuesday afternoon at the
gymnasium and was enjoyed by a
large audience, made up OF relatives
and friends of the little folks. Over
fifty children took part in the operet
ia and the program was carried out
without hitch of any kind, which OF
course speaks highly for their teach
ers, Miss Alice James and Miss Edna
Itaine, who trained them. Miss Wini'
fred Wright, instructor in music, had
charge OF the music. ...l
The Operetta was in four parts and
the characters were in costume. The
part of the big bear was taken by
Adolps Hanss and Ford Ransom was
the second bear, while Ralph Vassa,
represented the littlo bear. GWendO
line Grimes, a member OF the fourth
grade, portrayed the part OF Peggy. 1t
was really remarkable the way the
children carried out their parts ami
although their roles were long they
appeared perfectly ut ease before the
arge audience The chOruses were
exceptionally good.
Great credit is duo Miss James and
Miss Raine for the success OF the en-
tertainment, and those who attended
have only words OF praise for the little
folks and their teachers.

Gently celebrated his 100 birthday. DR.
Bond tells us that the Bond ancestors

milestone. Seymour Bonds father
| is now in his S7th year, enjoying the
best of health and has every prospect
or living to celebrate his hundredth

From the Clarksburg w. Va. EXpon'
ent we quote the following in regard
to Deacon Levi Bond who celebrated
Ills lundredth birth anniversary in
April:
with faculties as keen as those
of the average three decades from the
century mark, Mr.. Bond shook~hands
with friends and relatives who came
from far and near TO help celebrate
his centennial and cOnvcrscd freely
on matters OF the day.
\ Levi Bond is the son Of Abel Bond
Jr, and the grandson of Major Rich
ard Bond, who was an officer in the
Revolutionary War. He is direct
descendent of Sir Richard Bond, Lord
Mayor of London in the seventeenth
century. who was knightcd by the
king Tor valiant service in the Cru.
sades. Richard Howell, Governor OF
New Jersey during the Revolutionary
war period, was 4 son of Sarah Bond.
the sister of Richard Bond, great
grandfather of Levi Bond for whom
the celebration was held. He was al
so related to .Verna Howell, wife OF
Jefferson Davis president OF. the ILL.,
fatcd Southern republic.
"Mr. Bond attributes his long }hfc
to the fact that he has never used
liquor or tobacco and has lived Il. TEN.
pcrate life. He never drinks but pnc
cup of coffee day.
when the civil war was declared
Levi Bond was fOrty-thrce years of

it was forty Besides being one OF
the best read men of the county, he

Patriotism" was the foundation
of the address by the Rev. Robert
Bagnel, ID. D., pastor of Grace NJ
E. Church at PaXtang Park yester-
day. He was the principal speaker
at the annual meeting OF The Phila-
delphia Division Veteran Employees
Association. During his remarks the
local minister was frequently inter-
rupted by prolonged cheers.

and do the best he knew how. ii
have Il great deal of kind feeling for
the man that is on the job" he
added. He urged a correct apprecia-
ton of "efficencny," and expressed
as his belief that this word was
badly interpreted at times. Con
tinuLng he said in part:
IF the United States would have
spent 40 years in training, as Ger
many has given her people, we
would have got somewhere in that
country long ago. There are two
reasons why Germany did not get to
Paris. One was the German army
was inefficient, and the other be-
cause the French army, more efrI-
cient was between Germany and
Paris.
Likes Efficiency
II like the efficiency of railroads
the great safety of travel on the
Pennsylvania Railroad. We are not
trying to talk up but back up. That
is what you want to do with your
employees. Back them up. After
urging young$ men to use their
brains for the betterment of them
selves and doing the best possible
for their country, the Rev. DIR
Bagnell advocated that all news
papers published in German ought
to be printed in English. He urged
every man to prove his character by
doing things right and concluded.
I'VE are here in this war to-day
not to get land for ourselves, blt
to make the world safe. We must
stand for character, we must stand
by the men,"
Superintendent w. B. McCalet
also advocated stronger efficiency
on the part of the men, and hoped
that every employee would continue
to do his duty both to his country
and employer"
