in ST. Andrews Church on Mond v,
December LIST, at 1870 P. M. Previous
to the election the rector said the
office of Evensong, at the conclusion
of which he called to order. He pre-
faced the proceedings by few re-
marks on the duty of every parishion-
er to be present at such meetings
and thereby show their interest in
the affairs of the parish. Mr. C. H.
Rex was then elected secretary of the
meeting and read the minutes of the

Thompson. Mr.. Jacob H. Holcombe
was unanimously reelected Senior
Warden, and the two. vacancies on
the Vestry were filled by the election
by ballot of S. w. Thompson and R.
Justice. A vote of thanks was then
proposed by Mr.. Walker to be tender
ed to the members of the St. Vincent S
Guild of Acolytes for their unweary-
ing and unfailing services to the
church and parish, this motion was
heartily endorsed by the Rector, who
said that in all matters he could de-
pend upon the loyalty and services
of the Alter services of the church.
and on being put to the meeting the
motion of thanks was adopted I'M
animously. The parish meeting was
brought to a fitting conclusion by
prayer and the benediction.

just purchase for penny apiece the
Red Cross Christmas Seals. This
year these are jolly little stamps with
a well-laden Santa Claus, the very
thing to put on every Christmas card
and package you send. The best
thing about them is that every one
means tiny advance against this,
the most common of diseases, as the
money raised by the sale of the seals
is all used for work against tuber-
culosis. This year the Hunterdon
County Chapter of the Red Cross has
for the sale, and through the Branches
been reorganized as the official agent
and Auxiliaries, plans to make the
use of the seals more universal than
ever before. Furthermore, rs per
cent. of the amount realized will be
sent here in the County for anti-tu-
berculosis work.

Robberies in Lambertville

What is believed to be a gang OF
boy thieves, some of whose members
are now being watched, entered a
number of places about Lambertville
on Sunday night or early Monday
morning.
A large number Of five cent admis-
sion tickets were taken from the
Strand Theatre, entrance being gained
through the window on the west side
of the building; postage stamps and
small articles were taken from the
Herdlea mill and from the Triangle
Laundry, both located on Lambert
street; and food was taken from the
second story back porch at the home
of Albert S. Mathews, who lives in
the Holcombe Building on North
Union street.
At the Triangle Laundry all the
packages were opened, starch was
strewn on the floor, as was also blu
ing and other things which thieves
would have no use for. A desk pan
Ell was broken out and a number of
keys belonging to W. S. Short, head
of the laundry, taken from an inside
drawer. General wantonness seem
to have been the rule there, Judging
from the manner in which things
were mussed UP.
Papers were thrown about and
things upset generally in the office at
Herdlea mill, but Winfield Wallace,
the manager, says that the principal
thing of value taken was the postage
stamps, about dollars worth.
The loss at the Strand Theatre
was the largest of all, but the tickets
were numbered, and if many of them
are used it will be possible to trace
up the thieves.
Mr.. Mathews lost package of Sau-
sage, but two pounds of butter and
other food was overlooked.
One of the boys is believed to be
definitely known, and it is expected
that the whole crowd will be rounded
up shortly. Several years ago some
boys were rounded up for petty
thieving, and there has never been
any serious attempt since, but none
of the culprits of that occasion are
included in the present raids, it is
thought.

Express Co.'S, New Packing Rules

The New Packing Rules go into
effect next week December 10. Under
the regulations now in force, all ex-
press shipments over 25 pounds must
be forwarded in wooden containers or
cartons bearing the box makers GER
tificate as to strength and size re-
quired by the express company. j..
No change is contemplated in the
shipments under the 25 pound limit,
which will still be accepted wrapped
in paper. Christmas shippers are ad-
vised not only to send their holiday
packages early, but to see that they
are properly packed and accurately
addressed.
The Express Companies are expect
ing a very heavy movement of
Christmas gifts by express this year
and this at a time when they are
handling greater amount of traffic
than at any period in the history of
the railroads. 1t will be well for
Christmas shoppers to keep in mind
the 25 pound limitation for paper
wrapped packages.
Most holiday presents we believe,
are under that weight and are, there
fore, not affected by the new rules.
But any shipment over rs pounds
must be forwarded in special con-
tainers, and the Express Company
Employees will be very glad to give
anyone interested full information as
to how they should prepare their
Christmas presents for shipments by
express.

The sale of Red Cross Christmas
Seals is going fine in New Hope. The
regularly appointed committee will
finish the house to house canvas on
Friday evening their the school child
rem will take up the work till the 10th,
when the drive will be over. The
quota for New Hope is $4,000 seals
or an average of IL for each indivi-
dual in the borough. Many more
should be sold. The cause is the most
appealing that has ever been present
ed to our people. 1t is for the stamp
ing out of tuberculosis. 100000
young people die every year in the
United States of this White Plague.
Most of it can be prevented, and the
Red Cross proposes to throw all of
its resources to prevention and cure
Some one very near to you may be a
victim and need the good offices of the
Red Cross. So you can not afford to
turn them down, Buy all you can, and
influence others to buy. so per cent
of the proceeds of the sale will re-
main in Bucks County to fight the
Plague in our own community. We
licked the Germans, now we are to
fight other and more subtle enemies
Let us fight to win. Give the Red
Cross the implements and the NUM-
lions with which to fight and we will
be amazed at the results. Buy
Christmas Seals.

FIND EANY USES FOR PEAT
Wartcrn Industry Gives Promise Of
Great Development in the
Years to Come.

The output OF peat in the United
any preceding year and the general
increase, which was stimulated by the
war, was shared by practically all
branches Of the industry. Though ex-
tens;vely used as fuel in Europe and
widely known in The United States as
a potential source OF heat and power,
peat has been unable to compete with
coal and many peat operators have d.
rected their attention to the utilization
of peat in agriculture with gratifying
results.
Peat fertillzcr vas first marketed In
commercial quantities in 1908 and
stock.food peat in 1912, and though
there is stil some prejudice against its
use the agricultural branch Of the in
dustry has been successful and the
quantity Of fertilizer and stockf0od
peat annually produced is increasing.
Largo quantities Of these products
were made last wear, but the most
striking development was the produc-
ton of more peat'in in the New England
States than has been manufactured in
the entire United States in all preced-
ing years Almost equally striking
was thc widespread interest manifest
cd in peat resources which had been
generally regarded os of doubtful
value.
Large quantities Of peat or sphag
mum moss were produced and utilized
for stable litter, packing material and
Furgica dressing, and several hun
dred thousand acres Of peat soils we're
used for the growth Of crops The
peat litter was produced NY the own
ers of small hogs for their own use.
but the packing material was sold
to florists for So ton. According
to J, W. Hotson o. the Red Cross
more than half nillon peat pads
were prepared in this country for that
organization. Most Of the moss was
gathered by volunteers from bogS in
Washington, Oregon and Maine, and
the pads were used in military hos
pitfalls at home aud abroad.
