GLENDALE

The Ladies' Aid Society Of the Ell
lendale NJ. E. Church surely deserves
much renown for the noble way il
: which it is trying TO liquidate its in.
debtedness created by the subscription
in payment of the debt of the elaborate
Z new church in Glendale. The writer
, has watched during the last week the
, Jealous efforts of the various commit
tees to make the bazaar successful in
every way. Surely no person could
do more for church work and for the
betterment of the town than these la
dies. Now, who should they do it?
Can we criticize them saying they are
getting something out of it in a pc
cuniary way? Many times some mis-
apprehensive people criticise those
who strive to perfect conditions to
meet these progressive times, saying
they have ulteriOr motives for so do
ing or something up their sleeves; (;
but no conscientious person can truth
fully say that our ladies who strive to
make Glendale prosperous, happy,
and a social center, are benefitting
themselves financially or looking out
for mo. l." Now friends of the church
and town, patronize the bazaar and
and encourage these "toilers ia the
I vinyard" for we may want their assis-
tanee again somewhat later Remem-
Der too, that many curiOs will be ex-
hibited and everything dear to the
stomach will be for sale.
7 We notice in a recent editorial of
the Sussex Journal that the editor is
so opposed to the new school code that
he also opposes the consolidation OF
the school districts contiguous to FL
lendale with Glendale school district,
Nos. l25-171. Has the editor become
so narrow minded that he will resort
to any criticism to defeat the code, or
is he merely playing politics. Surely
he realizes that with competent teach
ers for all grades, with adequate facil-
tiles for these progressive times, with
a rural high school where such sub
jects will be taught that our children
have never dreamed of, and with
transportation provided for all chill
dren irrespective of distance. every
child will appreciate our doings. and
good roads also will be the logical re-
suit Of such a progressive step. This
school can come without any increas-
ed tax rate on our part, because if we

We want the school.
The Farm Bureau of Glendale will
hold its first meeting of the season at
the White Hall on Thursday evening,

stormy the meeting will be held the

mers, we urge you to be present to
enjoy this treat.

The Epworth League Social held its
meeting on last Thursday
evening at the home of Miss Bessie
Warren. After the literary program,
candy was served and many games
were played. All we want to say is,
if Bessie made that candy, she needs
to look out for us coming again very
soon.
