to Delhi in 1855. His father, a cabi-

old school house which was recently
destroyed by fire and was for years
our most picturesque building. He
died when Sc years of age, leaving the
mother with alrge family. His
mother, who lived to be SO, is still
spoken of by older residents as a
very devoted Christian woman. For
over 60 years, with the exception of

marriage, Delhi has been his residence

THE p. A. & M. A. HONORS
DEPARTED MEMBER.

Some fifty members of the P. A. &
NJ. A, including the band, solemnly
marched to the time of muffled drums
to the residence of Edward Weller, 200
S. Main ST, Tuesday evening, and paid
their last tribute to their dear friend
and associate, Isaac Lee, better known
as Cap. Lee" who died on Saturday,
in his 63d year. The faithful services,
untiring efforts and congenial person
ality of this most humble servan OF
the community, is an inestimable loss.
May the memories of the kind deeds
of this noble citizen be ever a stimu-
liant for others to unselfishly render
public service. The generous display
of exceptionally beautiful floral pieces
surrounding the bier is convincing evil
dence of the high esteem in which this
mar was held by the community in
general. Funeral services were held
at the residence of Mr.. Lees niece,
Mrs. Weller, on Wednesday morning,
with interment at the family burial
plot at Williamstown, N. ].

LARGE CONGREGATION AT
THANKSGIVING SERVICE.

The Union Thanksgiving Service
held Thursday evening in the Presby-
terrain Church was attended by a con-
gregation which taxed the ediice to
its capacity. The sermon by Rev. Pen
nington Corson was a masterful one, in
which he enumerated the obstacles the
country has been forced to overcome
in the course of her history, and de-
clared that in its present crisis victory
is inevitable. One of the greatest
things for which we have to be thank
full, he said, in addition to the abund-
ance of food supplies, is the unity of
the American people in the great world
war.
The music was especially fine and
the collection for Armenian Sufferers
very creditable, amounting to $47.56.

Tennessee and Alabama. They in turn
will be followed by Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh

will go by train. Several other fami-

WHAT OTHERS THINK OF
OUR FRIEND FRANK HUBIN.

The Travelling Elk, in it's November
issue, contains the following article
concerning Frank B.. Hubin:
Frank Hubin, of Atlantic City
Lodge, No. 276, is a great postcard
man and a wonderful booster for
Pleasantville, N. j., and afirms that a
sculptor is a man to be envied, mas
much as he often is enabled to cut a
big figure in the world at somebody
else's expense; and that there are
others in New Jersey who think the
same way; and again there are some
that are able to do it. Now Frank is
a whole-souled fellow, bending his en-
ergies and knowledge to making Pleas
antville occupy a prominent place on
the Jersey State map. C%ongenial,
sympathetic and cognate, he possesses
all the attributes to accomplish his
purpose. Jersey has a good citizen in
him and Atlantic City Lodge a tireless
worker. Frank is as pleasant as
Pleasant-ville can be. His face beto-
kens his good humor, and his speech
is as pleasant as it is witty. No. 2
wishes him success"

ECONOMY BRINGS
REVIVAL OF LACE.

Henri Bendel, the Fifth Avenue cou-
turier, writing in the December issue
of Harper's Bazaar, makes the follow
ing forecast
This is a season when the mode
acknowledges the supremacy of old
lace. Of course, real lace is always
more or less fashionable, though for
the last few years it has not been
used so extensively. But now as a
wartime economy women have gone to
their treasure chests and brought out
their old laces from their wrappings
of blue tissue paper. In fact, these
exquisite laces are being used so reck-
lessly that, by the time Palm Beach
days are here, we will find whole
frocks made of real lace. And such a
frock will be absolutely priceless
for it is doubtful if these wonderful
laces of the past a ever be produc-
ed again, as the devastation of Bel
GUM has all but destroyed the art"

EVERYONE CAN HELP:
BUY THRIFT STAMPS
They Will be on sale at All Postoffices
and Sell at twenty-five Cents
Each-Sixteen to a Card.
ONE THOUSAND DOLLAR LIMIT.

The United States government real
lied over five billion dollars on the
liberty loan bonds. While some of
this money came from the middle or
poor class of people, the majority
came from the corporations and rich.
Now the poor people have a real
chance to help Uncle Sam at a quar-
ter or more each.
Beginning December third the sew
eral post Offices of the country will
put on sale thrift stamps and war
savings certificates stamps. The pur-
pose of these stamps is to have the
%populace make a loan to the govern
ment, for the period of five years, at
the rate of four per cent. interest.
Thrift cards are to be issued with
spaces for sixteen twenty-five cent
stamps. This means four dollars, and
with additional cost of twelve cents,
accrued interest, if the card is pur-
chased in January, or a proportionate
odih dlllouilllh6 " NClly-tlIC &C CChlo
additional, if the card is purchased in
December. A card is issued that will
be worth five dollars on January l,
1923. These cards are issued and
stamps affixed one at a time and the
cards exchanged for war savings GER
tificate stamps when the card is filled.
Under the regulations it is not per-
MISSILE for any one person to pur-
chase more than one hundred dollars
worth of war savings certificates at
any one time and no person shall have
more than one thousand dollars in his
possession at a time. This regulation
was put in effect to make the loan a
popular one
The purchasing of these stamps and
certificates is purely a loan to the
United States and will be paid back,
with the accrued interest at the end
of five years, or sooner if desired. If
each person in the country buys only
one twenty-five cent stamp, as a gov
eminent loan, the aggregate sum loan
ed to the government in this way
would amount to twenty-five million
dollars.
Any Postmaster will be only too
willing to explain more fully the work
ing of this method of l~oaning money to
the government and the average citi-
zen is appealed to so that all can help
win the war.
