GUNNERS DEPART EARLY

After nine day respite from the

Francc) while His brothers in this state
were kept busy scurrying for cover.
Brcr Rabbit. Of New Jersey. is this
morning emulating his relatives on this
side of the Delaware. The New Jersey
hunting season opened this morning.
Smart Pennsylvania rabbits who went
to Jersey nine days ago to escape the
shot and shell will now have to run for
it with the rest.
Last week there was rush in all
parts of New Jersey for hunting licen-
scs, and long before daylight this morn
ing parties of hunters had started for
South Jersey fields and pine woods
eager to get the benefit of being first
on the ground after rabbits. squirrels
and quail. Many. among them men who
learned the benefits of outdoor life while
wearing khaki a year ago. are nctunted
perhaps by the love of the outdoors
more than desire to kill. All look for
one Of the biggest hunting seasons in
years.
Game wardcns and hunters who have
been over the ground say game is plcnti-
full in South Jersey.
Large leases taken over by city
Sportsmcn have resulted in trpspass
notices to hunters being posted in many
places, though there is plenty of room
for all hunting license holders. One of
the places plachrded. to the diSappoint-
ment of hunters, is old Washington

.F|REMEN RECOVER
$1,000 FOR WIDOW
Twelve Are Overcome Trying to
Reach Cash in Darby Be-
fore Two Succeed
DAMAGE REACHES $4,000

Twelve fremen risked their lives last
night in an effort to save a widows
$4,000 in fire at 504 Main street,
Darby. but were overcome by smoke.
But when they dropped the work was
taken up by Captain William II. Ayres,
of the Drby Fire Department, and Ray
mond Butts, of Darby Company No. 9.
and the money was at last saved from
the flames and handed to the wailing
woman, Mrs. Eva Greenbaum, widow OF
Nathan Greenbaum.
The fircmen overcome were Harry E.
Welsh, Oliver n. Smith. Jr., and NJ. II.
Magnin. Jr., of Darby Fire Co., No. 1,
James Dempster. James McDevitt, Will
liam Brooks. Charles Johnson, Earl
Morris and Frank Gaul, of Darby Fire
Patrol, No. 2, and Wilson G.. Kent.
Edwin Childs and Frank Libby, OF
Colwyn Fire Co.
All Back on Duty
All were able to return to duty
after they had received treatment.
Mrs. Greenbaum conducts grocery
store at 504 Main street, Darby. About
z o'clock last night she kindled fire
in the heater. A few minutes later
smoke indicated that something was
wrong in the cellar.
A spark may have leaped from the
furnace door. At any rate, Mrs. Green =
baum found the cellar afre. After
vainly trying to put out the flames, she
ran back upstairs and carried out her
three year old son, Jacob. Then she
turned in an alarm.
Firemen from Darby and Colwyn
were soon there. While they were fight
ing the blaze. Mrs. Greenbaum remem :
bered that she had left her savings,
$4,000, in bureau drawer. She tried
to enter the building, but was re-
strained.
Smoke Fills Building
When the firemen learned the cause
of the widows distress, they made a
heroic effort to get the money for her.
But by that time the fire had mounted
from the cellar and the building was
filled with choking smoke. One after
another twelve of the >firemen dropped
gasping.
Then Captain Ayres and Fireman
Butts took hold of the task. Using
sponges to protect themselves from the
smoke. they managed to get into the
room where the money was hidden
Finding the money, after cropping about
in the smoke and darkness, they re
turned to the street.
Woman Is Grateful
Mrs. Greenbaum is delighted
woman today, despite the fact that the
fire did about $4,000 damage, chiefly tc
the stock. She thinks every fireman in
Darby and Colwyn is hero and should
have Carnegie medal.
After the money had been found, sew
eral persons appeared with army gas
masks. These proved useful in com
pleting the work of putting out the
flames.
! Members of the ladies' auxiliary o.
Fire Company No. gave their help al
the fire. They served hot coffee to the
firemen while they fought the flames

Tor you may be sure that it will re-
celVe its share of hard knocks. At
the store of H. d. Dougherty & Co..
1852 Chestnut street, | noticed the
other day number of cribs which
meet both requirements perfectly.
One If iron, white enameled, was
very attractive: and, of course. a
very good feature of the white
enameled crib is that it can he
washed easily. The merits of kiddie-

how useful they are, stop in at

ment that is truly wonderful in de-
sign and coloring is on display at the
store of Fritz & LaRue, Inc, 1924

manshah rug that | saw showed rich
ccolorlngs of burberry, ivory and
Jade. Such rug as this might well
be the keynote of any scheme of dec
Grafton. Anoth h er Kermanshah
showed faint pastel colorings of blue
and mauve and yellow, reminiscent
of the paintings of Puvis de Chav-

these rugs in sizes to tit the rooms

THE value Of a small flock OF laying
1 hens on a town or village lot or in
a city back yard should not be under
estimated. Even as few as six or
eight hens should produce eggs
enough, where used economically. for
family OF four or five persons
throughout the entire year, except
during the melting period OF the fail
and early winter.
COntributory Causes to Success.
Two things should be kept in mind
in connection with this flock; first
that the number Of hens was small;
and second that the family in the
household concerned was much larger
than the average. with the result that
a considerably greater amount Of ia
bic scraps was available for feeding
the hens than would be the case in
the average family or with a larger
flock
The hens started laying in January,
the egg production by months being
as follows. January, q. February,

toned off by means of old screens

by a window which allowed the hens
TO get out doors during the bright

they were confined TO the cellar. Dur
