The most beautiful in Carneys Point

He sentenced the boy to his farm to
work out his fine under Barney O'Neil
Hutchinson. The boy is getting free
board, working out his fine and learn
ing something useful. If many others
were sentenced the same they would
be benefited.

ton. He announces his withdrawal as
a candidate for Assembly and will as
pire to become assessor of Upper
Penns Neck Township Thus Moses
the lawgiver, becomes an Aaron after
political-fesh pots. Many persons
have found a bigger golden calf in
Upper Neck the past few years than
anywhere else on earth
But then Eagletown has to be taken
into consideration. When the taxpay'
ers find assessments all Wright they
will think twice before making 6
chance. The difficulty vas that he

over Oldmans by William NJ. Stile:
who was defeated two years ago. 1

rushes of Bear Swamp he will become
