SUPPOSEDLY TRUE
BILLY GOAT STORY

A billy goat chased Billy Hage-
boeck and his neighbor, Emil Nevis,
into the Hageboeck home at Avoca
one evening last Week. AS Hage-
boeck fell i'm at the door he yelled
to his wife to put out the light
SO the darned critter wouldn't
jump in thru the windcw Pretty
soon Mike Kelley came along, and
the goat beat it toward Kelley.
Kelley ran to climb a tree, but
WAS too slow, so he continued to
run. aFounds the t..iee. He ran
SO fast he came up behind the
goat, and, with well directed
kick, sent the goat over the fence
into the next yard. This is sup
posed to be true story.

MUSTN'T PRIMP IN ELEVATORS

TRAINING MIND OF CHILD
Time for Parents to Begin Is When
Little Ones World Is Bounded
by the Nursery.

The trend in many nurseries and
schoolrooms nowadays is against the
formation of habits of attention. The
restlessness and speed Of life make
for this state of things anyhow, and
spread to our children. A multitude
of toys, one discarded for another
when it has been little more than
looked at; books read in cursory
fashion, one succeeded by another
too quickly for thought; a rush Of
lessons, games, excursions, motor
rides-all these make the faculty of
attention more and more difficult to
arouse and maintain.
OF course we cannot go against
the trend of our age; but we can
bear its tendencies, both good and
bad, in mind and endeavor by ex-
ample and personal service to coun-
terbalance what is bad among a great
deal that is good. We can talk, for
instance, to our boys and girls of the
books they read, encouraging them
without knowing it to fix their at
tention upon them. We can, while
they are quite small, devise games
which will promote attention, in
stead of aiding and abetting them
by playing first one and then an
other, fitting from piano to cards
and cards to toys i'll that hour or so
we devote to the children, as the will
O the wisp mood Of the moment die

TRENTON MAILS
ARE TOO SLOW

There is frequent complaint about
the mail service and freight service
between Lambertvilie and Trenton.
or vice versa, it appearing that most
any other connection within hun
bred miles is superior to that be-
tween these two cities but sixteen
miles apart. Mail is received from
every point of the compass mornings
before Trenton is heard from, and
it's the same way with freight. Goods
from Philadelphia arrive hours be-
fore merchandise from Trenton
comes by the Pennsylvania railroad.
This city has but two mails a day
to Trenton that insure prompt de-
livery, one at 8 a. M, and the other
at 7.15 p. m. The mail closing at
2 p. M, does not get into the Capt.
tai City in time for any delivery
that day, neither does the AIS p. m.
mail, Between the local postoffice
and the New Hope office, but little
over a quarter mile apart, Phila-
delphia can be reached with at least
four mails that insure prompt de-
livery, and Easton, more than twice
as far away. can be reached by three
mails that insure prompt delivery.
There is no fault found with the
Lambertville postoffice, where the
service has reached state of effici-
ency that is as perfect as human be-
ings can make it, but with the gov
eminent methods that do not pro-
vide for improvements. The Penn
sylvania railroad has always been
chary about carrying mail south
bound on the l so a. m. train, from
Lambertville, although it cheerfully
brings pouches from Easton and
points north. Frequently local peo-
pie take rush letters to New Hope
to, mail for the 11.25 a. m. train, by
which Philadelphia, Newark and
New York deliveries can be secured,
although not usually Trenton.
1t is a condition that is found in
all the places north of this city.
They receive their Philadelphia and
New York mails anywhere from one
to three hours ahead of the mail
from Trenton, and also get them
oftener from other places than from
Trenton. Some of the folks regard
it as a matter in which Trenton
should be most interested, assuming
that if the business peoplethere don't
care, they don't either.
