Football Battle

The High School football team
travelled to Bridgeton last Saturday
and split even in a 0 to 0 score with
3ridgeton High.
Both teams were evenly matched
and both put up a creditable game.
The ball sayed back and forth during
he entire game, but each team getting
n dangerous quarters for its oppon-
ents at times.
Penns Grove made good gains on
he forward pass. The first play of
he game was a forward to Callahan,
Who made twenty yards gain. But
With this lead did not have the goods
% go much further and soon lost the
ball on fumbles and poor playing.
Bridgeton then tried its hand with
he ball and made good gains through
Penns Groves line but would soon be
held for downs. When the second
half started, Bridgeton came out with
more vim and with some hard plunges
)y Jackson, tore Penns Groves line
hard. Bridgeton did not stop until
hey reached the eight yard line, but
hen Penns Grove got on it's feet and
held them to a stand still. .Penns
Grove would then carry the ball back
and then lose it.
Thus the struggle was going on
with straight football until Shiller
taught one Of Penns Groves forwards
and made a thirty yard dash, but then
a dispute arose The referee had
blown his whistle while the ball was
IN the air. Therefore the Penns Grove
players did not go after the man.
This was settled by giving Bridgeton
half the distance gained. The play-
ing was resumed and neither side was
able to any ground. So the
game ended with theball in the mid

Fine Brick Building Where Cove

The handsome two story brick build
ing erected on the site of the old Cove
School House was occupied by the
school children last Monday, October
8, 1917, for the first time. The second
Cove school house was moved the first
week in July, 1916, and ground was
broken July 18th for the new building
which is 81 by 80 feet, two stories,
with a basement for an auditorium
which is not furnished yet. There are
four class rooms on each floor with
lorty separate seats in each room.
There are two small rooms which will
hold about twenty, besides a supervi-
sors and teachers room in the end.
While not fully finished and fur
nished, it was needed to accommodate

cooking. Lucetta Sharp, of Phoenix
lille, Pa, is the skilled and diplomat
c instructor in these arts, She
has rooms at the corner of jefferson
md South Streets formerly called
Shell Road before amiesite took the
place of oyster shells). The room is
furnished with two cook stoves, two
yas stoves and eight tables each with
Utensils for two pupils.
Each girl in the grammar grades,
9TH to 8th, is given one lesson a week
n cooking and also one in sewing.
The introduction of scientific house
lold work is amazing to those who
lever saw or thought of the skillful
ways of handling food and cloth goods.
1t is worth while for older persons to
1sit the sewing and cooking school.

MAY stop PRINTING
THOSE DOLLAR Bills
Bureau Handicapped by Failure of
Deficiency Bill.

Because of the failure of Congress to
pass the deficiency bill the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing may be forced to
suspend the manufacture of money, Off
cials OF the Treasury Department admit
ted yesterday afternoon.
They expressed alarm over the situa-
tion. declaring that 1t may be necessary
to suspend this branch Of the bureau
within a month unless arrangements can
be made to offset conditions.
Director Ralph, Of the bureau, said that
he will order supplies to continue the en-
craving of bills subject to future pay
ment, but it is admitted that the situation
will not be overcome even then. as there
will be s1So.00o needed for salaries.
Mr.. Ralph explained that there Is only
money enough on hand to purchase sup
plies until March 16 The salary budget
will not be depleted until May TO- accord
ing to his estimate last night. He ex-
pressed the belief that something may
arise until that time to cope with the sit
uation.
1t Is likely that some system of credit
will be established to pay salaries. Should
the bureau close it would affect 1900 en-
ployes.

cause Of the filibuster against the armed
neutrality bill. carried $4,000 for the op-
erations of the bureau.

Cornelius Lehane. of Cork, Ireland at a

night under the auspices of the District
Socialists. The ever-growing group of
Socialists and the increasing strength Of
labor unions gave such uneasiness to the
ruling classes of England and Germany
that the present conflict was precipitat-

between Germany and England were but
a contributing cause. The actions of the
