May Work Out Satisfactorily.

The troubles of the Washington-Vir-
ginia Railway Company may be of short
duration. as the officials of the corpora
ton expect within the next ten days to
make good on the interest payment on
the s2.340.000 outstanding bonds of the
Washington. Alexandria and Mount
Vernon Railroad Company, upon which
default since May l has existed.
Under the terms of the agreement a
default must exist four months before
foreclosure and arrangements are now
under way to meet the obligation.
The company enjoyed good year in
1917 and 1918. but extended its lines
to Camp Humphreys. with an expendi-
ture of nearly $500. 600. against which
no new stock or bonds were issued
The company also paid $4,000 dividend
on preferred shares.
Part of the original issue of s., $50. 900
of the first mortgage So of the Wash
fngton. Alexandria and Mount Vernon
Railroad Company are in the treasury
OF the corporation.

DECLARES DIVIDEND.
OF Z PER CENT
Security Savings Increases
Annual Distribution, Pay
able Quarterly.
COMMENT ON BANKING
BY I. A. FLEMING.

Directors of the Security Savings
and Commercial Bank met yesterday
afternoon and declared n quarterly
dividend of per cent. payable July
l. to shareholders OF record July %,
this action raising the annual rate of
distribution to the stockholders to Il
per cent, as compared with the 10 per
cent rate which has been in vogue for
some time.
The last sale Of the stock of this
bank was at 80, and very little
changed hands, control being strongly
conferred. the bid price now being 200
a share.
Recent developments in connection
with local banking Institutions have
caused some little marking up of wall
ues in bank stock as shown by yes
terday's and today's quotations.
These developments have in no way
referred, so far as known, to the
Security Savings and Commercial. but
they have called attention to the pos
sibilities of Washington as a close
adjunct to the financial center of the
world-New York city. Many of our
local bank shares are quoted close
to book value. some few under that
valuation.
Certain it is that yesterdays de-
velopments with the Commercial Ma
tional Bank plainly indicate future
changes of no small Importance to
this city-and to some of its banks.

Graphophone Bonds Not Called.

Considerable misunderstanding ex-
lists among holders of Graphophone 6
per cent bonds. 1t was expected that
the Columbia Graphophone Company.
the successor of the American Graph
ophone Company. would call them
for payment June /. in accordance
with the program for the issuance OF
new preferred stock and the adyer-
tised intent to retire the outstanding
notes and also the bonds of the cor
poration.
At the last moment. presumably, It
was discovered that, under clause
fr the mortgage agreement the bonds
could not be called for redemption a.
par and accrued interest without first
giving four weeks notice of such in
tention.
Moreover. they may only be retired
at an interest payment date.
Such being the status of the bonds
they cannot be legally called for pay
ment before December 1. 1919
Some of the bonds have been turned
in at face value for new preferred
stock, changing hands in payment for
the same, and the company will prob
ably retire these at once

Hubin on Sewerage.
Editors Pleasantville Press:-

Editors P1easantville Press:-
Well, it certainly is a pleasure to see
our leading business men and citizens
in general awaken to the fact that
Pleasantville is no longer a Borough
but a full-f1edged City, and to see the
City advance and prosper and expect
new comers,s factories and industries,
to locate here, that will give employ
ment to thousands. Sewerage we
must have, and it cannot come too
quickly, with the U. S. Government
and State Government encouraging
cities, towns and different municipali-
ties to make local Improvements.
Sewerage for Pleasantville will be in
line and will help to tide oyer and give
work to the thousands of unemployed
who are now walking the streets of
every town and city in the U. S. 1t
will also furnish honest outdoor en-
ployment to those brave boys who left
good positions and left homes to join
the colors and now on their return
find no employment. AS sewerage is
bound to come sooner or later, and
being IN outdoor employment that
will give work to these honored sons
of ours, City Council should get busy
Ou Iulo 1AlpOIld1I ClFlC improvement
which will increase the values of all
our properties, and accept bids for a
sanitary sewerage system for the City
of Pleasantville. Then again to look
at conditions, with no employment,
men walking the streets in idleness,
which breeds crime and disorder, this
can be done away with by all munich
palities going ahead with their much
needed improvements, and give work
and employment to the unemployed.
P~leasantville has lost different enter
prises and people who would have
come here to live and build homes and
develop the unoccupied empty lots.
This would bring a big revenue to u
city in taxes and other ways. A Sew
erage System in any town or city will
in no time pay for it's installation, and
also keep down disease, sickness and
epidemics that are sure to occur IN
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1919-03-29
less sanitary conditions are improved,
and that will never be the case until
Pleasantville has sewerage.

What Seventh Day Adventists Believe

What Seventh Day Adventists Believe.
Editors Pleasantville Press
Kindly publish this article in your
valuable paper. On Thursday last
the Rev. A. A. Holzer advertised his
ence, Russelism and Seventh Day Ad-
ventists Under the Searchlight of
Prophecy"
So many wonder why Seventh Day
Adventists believe as they do, and
why they are so sure they are right,
and Seventh Day Adventist doctrines
are frequently misunderstood, that l
wish to make a few explanations.
Sincere Seventh Day Adventists are
such not because their friends and
relatives belong to that church, nor
because that is the largest church, or
the most popular church, nor because
they wish to be contrary; but because
they have accepted Christ as their in
fallible guide.
They find from studying the Bible
that all the prophets prophesied the
second coming of Christ, and that
Christ and all His disciples taught
that He would come again. In the
events of this time they see the full
fillment of the prophecies concerning
the last days. Some scott at this idea,
but Adventists merely turn to 2 Peter,
the 3rd chapter, especially verses 8 to
7, and prove that this scofing is an
other fulfillment of prophecy concern
ing the last days of this worlds his
tory.
They keep the seventh day of the
week because GOd commanded il and
Christ and His disciples (and every
good man or woman mentioned in the
Bible) kept it; and because the Bible
teaches that the Sabbath is a perma-
nent institution, a memorial of crea-
ton, never to be changed or done
away as long as heaven and earth
shall stand Matt. 5:17-20). They be-
lieve that Gods judgments are already

ADVICE TO "FLU"
What to Do.

In his statement to the public Sur
geon General Blue points out how
those who have had influenza should
protect themselves against tuberculo-
sis. "All who have recovered from in
fluenza," says the Surgeon General,
"should have their lungs carefully ex-
amined by competent physician. In
fact, it Is desirable to have several ex-
aminations made month apart. Such
examinations cannot be made through
the clothing nor can they be carried
out In two or three minutes II the
lungs are found to be free from tuber-
culosls every effort should be made to
right living, good food and plenty of
fresh air."
Danger Signs.
The Surgeon General warned espe-
cially against certain danger signs,
such as decline" and "colds which
hang on"
These, he explained, were often the
beginning Of tuberculosis. "If you do
not get we'll promptly, IL your cold
seems to hang on or your health and
strength decline, remember that these
are often the early signs Of tuberculo-
Sis. Place yourself at once under tho
care of competent physician. Tuber-
culosis is durable in the early stages.
Patent Medicines Dangerous In Tuber-
culosls.
"Above all do not trust In the mis-
reading statements Of INSCRIPTIONS
patent medicine takers There Is no
specific medicine for the cure Of tuber-
culOsis. The money spent on such
medicines is thrown away; 1t should
ae spent instead for good food and de-
