Camouflage

In recent copy of THE News there
appeared the following with reference
to word that has been used quite fire.
quently since the present war began:
"Camouflage is not new military
term developed by the war. On the
contrary, it is an old slang word of the
French stage, intended to be descrip-
tive of the makeup Of the actors. In
its military sense, in which it is now
popularity known, the term refers 20

two buildings were quite large and
they made huge blaze. They were
connected with other buildings which
gave the matter very serious aspect
for some time. The fire broke out
at nine o'clock and it was midnight
before the firemen could leave the
place. Both buildings were totally de-
stroyed. The power house was very

greatly felt. There is no idea how the
fire started.
The fire that made the greatest light

wood, Island Heights and other towns
where people were without fuel.
The sale of the Island Heights and
Seaside Park Bridge Co., advertised
for last Wednesday by U. S. Marshal
Albert Bollschweiler, was postponed
for one week at the request of the
Bridge Company. 1t is reported that
it will then be further postponed, and
that the sale is being put off to allow
more time for the company to raise
sufficient money to pay the judgment
under which the bridge is advertised.
This judgment of 0,5OOOO, was OBJ
tanned in the U. S. courts by Edward
Fay and Son, the contractors, for their
work in building the bridge. If the
bridge is sold, the stockholders who
put up $4,000 to start the bridge, will
be wiped out; if the judgment is paid,
without going to sale, the stockholders
will still own the bridge, subject to
bond issue, which was authorized at
100000.
The committee appointed by the
Ocean County Board of Agriculture to

Chief Game Protector James w. STRAIT
ton of Long Branch should draw bill
along the lines agreed upon by the
commission and the Ocean county
men, and present it to the local COM
mittee at another conference to be held
later. The bill is to embody the right
of the farmer to drive off or kill deer
on his cleared and cultivated land; but
nowhere else. When he kills a deer,
he must at once notify game warden
to come and remove the carcass, and
must not carry off the deer himself, or
he becomes liable to the fine for Kill

Casino Theatre

With a book that is filled with
sparkle and dash, a company OF ex-
ceptional worth to interpret it, and
with numerous exclusive features, the
Twentieth Century Maids" will make
their first appearance of the season at
the Casino Theatre, Philadelphia, be
ginning with the usual matinee on
Monday, January 81, and continuing
this company that it includes more
clever players than the average and
this seems to be justified in the list
submitted, which is headed by that
rotund comedian, Jim Barton, who
has long been favorite in the city.
Others in the cast are Jack Duffy, who
is appearing this season for the first
time in burlesque. He does drunk
scene that is said to be almost real.
Then there are Arthur Young, Jim
Howell, Walter Morrison and Bob
Ferns, the inimitable blackface come
dian. The female contingent is head
ed by Vera Rossmore, a prima donna
of exceptional ability. Assisting her
are Juliette Belmont, clever ingenue,
rillie Barton, and Jacqueline Tellman,
a whirlwind soubrette, who is also q
clever acrobat.
The book of the play is said to
sparkle with wit and amusing situa-
tions. The title is "The Aviator
which is more or less suggestive of the
French flavor with which it is per-
meated. However. assurance is given
that the performance is clean, bright
and well adapted to woman audiences
there being freedom from offensivensss
that is marked.
There is chorus notable for its
abilities as we'll as the colnelinsss of ths

Game League Meeting

The annual meeting of the Burling.
ton County Game Protective League
was held at the court house on Satur.
day afternoon.
The report of the secretary, Lawrence
G. Mingin, showed that the member.
ship during 1917 numbered 113.
The following officers were elected:
President, Benjamin w. Cooper; vice
president, Henry 1. Worrell; secretary,
Lawrence G. Mingin; assistant secre-
taries, Charles H. Branin and Her
bert l.. Bowker; treasurer, Harry l.
Walters; trustees, Ellis H. Rudderow,
Walter T. Cox, Joseph Wills, Edward
M. Warrick and Frank Ridgway.
There was considerable discussion
about bill that is to be introduced in
the legislature to permit the killing of
deer and rabbits when those animals
are destroying crops or trees. Many
fruit growers would like to see hares
and rabbits exterminated on account
of the damage done to trees.
If this bill is passed many of those
present thought it would result in ex-
terminating rabbits. and thereby cut
off all pleasure of most sportsmen.
This would have the effect of cutting
off the taking out of gunners' licenses,
the revenue from which entirely sup
ports the state game comission and the
cost of distributing game. In 1917
over 5000 licenses were issued in Bur-
lington county alone.
A resolution was passed setting
forth that the county league favors the
same seasons for rabbits and deer as
provided by the 1917 laws, with the
exception of including the killing Of
does during the deer season, which
have been protected heretofore.
AS the principal damage to trees is
done by hares, the meeting favored
having ''hare day." when all gun
ners would be urged to hunt those ami
mails only and thus ultimately exter-
inmate them.
A legislative committee, composed
of Ellis H. Rudderow, Lawrence G.
Mingin and Herbert S. Bowker, was
appointed to further the interests of
game in the laws to be passed by the
this winter.
A motion was passed providing for
the appointment of committee of
members in each township to solicit
new members; to feed quail in winter;
to protect game generally, and to re
port attractions of the game laws,
