Don't Sass"

Don't ''ssss'' the telephone operator or
you may lose the privilege of having a
phone in your home. The other day a
subscriber who started a line of ''back
talk" over the wire had his name cut
from the books OF the company and the
Public Utility Commission decided that
the privilege Of telephone service should
not be restored to him. lie admitted
saying the service was ION the bum" and
hoped the operator would break a leg, or
something like that.
All Of us, no doubt, have had some sort
OF exasperating experience in connection
with the service. Editor Kingdom of the
Mount holly News, probably giving a
personal experience says, "Maybe we
have been called up at midnight and
compelled to run, s%cantily clad, shaking
with cold and with the fear that there
was bad news necessitating a call at that
hour, and then when the receiver was
taken down, the reply Was in the sweet
est tone, beg pardon, we have called the
wrong number"
1t doesn't make any difference, how
ever. The Public Utility Commission
sage you must not ''sass'' the operator,
and that settles it, if you want to keep
your phone.

Penns Grove Mail Mad

A strange epidemic has struck Penns
Grove since the installation OF the free
mail service. People have got the craze
Of receiving mail and it has nearly
swamped the local post office. People Of
this town are thinking it a pleasure to
have the mail man deliver to their door.
Free catalogues and other gratus litera-
ture are finding their way into town in
sack loads and it is only the readiness of
the small force Of clerks to work at their
top-moet speed and Cooperate with the
carriers that has given service to the
town in this respect. Mail has been de-
livered with speed and accuracy to those
who have sent their names and correct
addresses to the post Office. New num-
bers were distributed to h~ouseholdets
free of charge last GUNNER by Joseph
r. Moreland,, and these are the
only numbers which the clerks and
carriers can recognize 1t is very import
ant that everyone send their names and
new numbers to the post office, to insure
quick deliveries.

County Court

Five more small boys faced Judge
Washington in the Juvenile Court last
Friday morning to answer to the charge
of arceny. None were over fifteen years
of age. Four of the boys, Edward Null
lin, Andrew Ware, William Mllicent
and John Riley, were sent down from
Penns Grove where they We're caught
robbing a general store. The other,
William Butler, is the little chap, who
His Honor placed in charge of Clifford
l.. Crispen the week previous and who
robbed the Crispen family of some jew
elry.
The Mullin boy is one of the worst
that the authorities have had to deal
with in a long time. He was on pro-
baton from the State Reformatory at
Railway and Judge Washington had no
other alternative than to e him back.
1t was said that when Sheriff Fox
went into the jail to reprimand the boys
for something they had done, Mullen
wanted to fight him.
The Ware lad was sent to the State
Home for boys at Jamesburg.
Millicent and Riley were placed in
charge of Probation Officer Galloway and
sent home with their mothers. This is
their first ~0ffense.
Mrs. Millicent and Mrs. Riley were
brought before the Court and severely
reprimanded. The former keeps a
boarding house in Penns Grove and she
became very indignant when Judge Wad-
dington gave her some information he had
learned. TOO much attention is paid to
the almighty dollar, evidently, and not en-
ough to the family or else boys of this ten
der age would not be before the Court"
Young Mullin was sentenced to the
State Home for Boys at J%amesburg.
The Judge said that Mullin evidently
had not appreciated the l~eniency shown
him when he was before the Court the
first time.
