The Broad

Nothing succeeds like success"
Since Manager Schweiger, formerly of
the Electric Palace Theatre, assumed
the ownership and management of the
Broad Theatre it has been playing to
crowded houses with the standing
room only" sign out. Every night
there has been a waiting line from the
theatre to Main Street and it has been
necessary to have the police keep them
in line. Tonight, Friday, "The Camou-
fage of Shirley" will be produced by
the Senior Glass of the High School
and of course they will have another
crowded house as Penns Grove is very
proud of her boys and girls. Next
weeks program is fully up to the high
standard that has made Manager
SchweiSer's selection S 20 popular with
patrons of the movies.

County Engineers Office
A communication from Engineer
Sparks called the attention of the
Board to the need of instruments and
appliances for making tests, also to
the need of more room and the fact
that the county does not pay for motor
hire or any part of the ~stenUgrapher'S
salary.
On motion of Mr.. Borton, it was de-
cided to pay 10 cents a mile for the
automobile, $500 as part of the
ste~nographer's salary, rent another
office and purchase the new level and
other instruments and appliances.
No Monument on Court House Yard
Mr.. Reeves stated that Mrs. Isaac
Counsellor was raising funds for the
purpose of erecting a monument to,
the Salem City boys who had gone
and that she desired permits
sion to place it in the court house yard,
He moved that this be granted.
Some of the me 1bers thought that
this would not b. right unless the
monument contained the I'M of all
the men from the county. The request
was refused by a vote of 6 to 5.
The attention of the Board was call
ed to the new desk that had been pro-
vided for the Engineer. Mr.: Reeves
stated that it had cost S18, while the
desks of the members cost SAT: The
desk came in for much criticism and on
motion of Mr.. Heron the Board decided
that it should be sent back and one as
good as the others procured in order
to maintain the harmony i'm the furni-
ture of the chamber.

Fire In Dive Works,

Fire at the Deep Water Point Dye
Works at 5 o'clock Friday of last
week damaged the building of the Al
pha Naphthylamine unit. No one was
injured and the property loss is small.
Work in this unit was suspended for
a few days until a new roof was put
on the building. The equipment was
not seriously harmed.
The fire evidently started from a
leak in one of the stills which allowed
the material to come in contact with
the flames. The fire spread from the
small building, where it originated, to
the two-story structure which is the
main building of the unit.
The Fire Department of the plant
soon had the fire under control and re-
pairs were started as soon as workmen
could safely enter the building.

The Italian Americans had an en-
joyable banquet in the grill room of
Hotel dupont, Wilmington, last Tues
day night. More than $50 were pres
ent to greet three members of the
Italian Military Mission to this
country. 1t was the greatest event in
the life of the Italian colonies in Will
mington and Penns Grove.
The members of the Italian Mission
who were the guests of honor at the
banquet are:
Commentator Prof. G. Lorenzoni,
from Giles, Trentino, captain of the AL
pines and a member of the Mission
from the Redeemed Provinces; G.. Fur
lani, member of the Mission from the
Redeemed Provinces, from Pola, Istria,
and Capt. Alexander Sapelli, ex-gov-
ernor of Italian Somaliland and a
member of the Italian Military Mis-
sion.
DR. . l.. Vaccaro was POSTMASTER.
The first speaker of the evening was
Mayor Lawson. He spoke of the joy of
all Italians in the final annexing of
the redeemed territory by Italy and of
the friendly relations that have always
existed between Italy and the United
States.
Prof. Edward Chiera, of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, spoke about
the Dalmatian question and the part
Italy has played in the war. He said
that the Italians do not like self
advertisement and therefore many
people did not know of the great i'm
portance that Italy played in obtain
ing the allied victory, the recovery of
territory from Austria and the union
of all Italians under the great peo-
Plies leader, King Emmanuel II.
He appealed for Itadian unification
and urged that the provinces of Istria,
Trieste, Trentino and part of Dalma-
tia be given to Italy and thereby the
unification. which Mazzini and Carl
baldi and Cavour worked for would
be compile.
DR.. Vaccaro declared that although
the Italians loved Italy and were en-
deared to the land of their boyhood,
they had a greater love for the Stars
and Stripes, for American democracy
and it's institutions. He thanked his
compatriots for their attendance, and
thereby came to a close a splendid
gathering of Italian citizens-assembled
fora common cause.
Among those present from Penns
Grove were Andrew l.. C~olantuono,
John Clement, Fidela di Palma,
Thomas di Lucio, Romeo di Luigi,
Elio Sbracci, Jess Lorello, Gay Simon
ELI, Joe Pasquale, Tony Traini, Carlo
Traini, Carlo Damato, Fred Campo,
Peter Jordon, Joe Ferranti and others.
