Pomona Grange Picnic.

Pomona Oranges annual picnic was
held at Rancocas Park last Tuesday
and Wednesday. The attendance was
equal to that of former years, and the
exhibits were of high-class.
Farm machinery and automobile
trucks were conspicuous part of the
exhibits, and attracted much attention.

speakers who were expected to deliver
addresses sent word that they could
not come. They were United States
Senator Frelinghuysen and State
Senator Gaunt.
Pemberton and Rancocas Oranges
had fine exhibits of farm products that
received much favorable comment.
On Wednesday night the Moores-
town band gave a fine concert that
was appreciated by the large crowd
present.

At meeting in Atlantic City OF
persons connected with the states
educational system the subject OF
when to open the schools was dis
cussed. An idea prevailed that it
would be for the benefit of the schools
if the opening was deferred until the
firstswesk in October. Many of the
boy pupils are engaged in agricultural
pursuits and it was thought unwise to
break in on their occupation 30 early
in the fall.

In disposing of case at Trenton,
recently, Motor Vehicle Commissioner
Dill took occasion to remark that the
roads of New Jersey would be perfectly
quiet and safe if it were not for outside
motorists. He blamed most of the
accidents on automobiles from other
states and singled out drivers from
Pennsylvania especially. The Attain
tic City Press is inclined to take ex-
ceptions to these remarks and thinks
the Commissioner is rather hard on
the Pennsylvania drivers. We take
exactly the opposite view and if the
editor of the Atlantic City paper would
come to Mount Holly, especially on
Sunday and ride from here to Wrights-
town and Browns Mills he might
change his opinion. Seven out Of
every ten cars that go over these roads
are Pennsylvania machines. Parked
at the Wrightstown camp New Jer-
sey car is q novelty. In riding from
Browns Mills, Sunday, we we're passed
by several autos from that state, many
Of which were burning gas at forty to
fifty mile rate. If the car that was be-
ing passed did not get out OF the way
with sufficient quickness black looks
we're given by the out-of-stats drivers
and remarks were made which were
not distinguishable owing to the rate
of speed being maintained. In many
instances Pennsylvania drivers insist
upon much more than half OF the road.
There is no going back of the fact that
many drivers Of Pennsylvania cars
have little respect for speed laws.
They are allowed to come here, tear
our roads up without paying any.
thing for their unksep, while New
Jersey driver in the other state has tC

cinity are noticeable, COMMISSIONS
Dill was entirely within bounds in
making his assertions and he is en-
titled to credit for calling attention t.
conditions that he may be depended
upon to remedy.
