Examine a piece of fine and costly
lace. What is IT fundamentally?
1t is a net. By origin it is a fish
net. The first lacemaker was fish
erman, or perhaps his wife.
All Of the beautiful laces we know
today are developed from that clever
invention, the fish net. They bark
back, therefore, far into the prehis;
toric.
The first white men who came to
America found no lacemakers on this
continent, but they did find the In
dams weaving fabrics of cotton, yucca
and other fabrics, with elaborate pat
tern designs. They We're particularly
skillful at certain sort of drawn
work"
The California Indians of today
make cotton lace, but the art has been
taught to them by white people. The
pottery they make for sale is some
times adorned with this lace.
Which suggests mention of the fact
that the early Indians often decorated
their pottery with textile patterns by
impressing the latter upon the clay
while soft.

until the hospital was discontinued ir
June 1919 One Of Mr. Cooper's arti.
cles, "Reweaving the Web" was
printed in the Red Cross Magazine
for army hospitals called GARRY
ON" This was sent to every hospital
in the United States for the benefit
of other soldiers who had been in
valided home.
Mr.. Cooper's father was in the
pvi,.ting Business he.s re him. and
he spent most of his boyhood va
cations in the elder Mr.. Cooper's
shops. This experience, together with
his training, will go long ways in
his new work. Since leaving the
army he has been with Roebling's en-
gagged in formulating and publishing
rules and regulations governing the
fire protection equipment. These
have been published in two volumes
one for the Trenton and the other for
the Roebling, N. ]. plant.
He is a member Of the Blue and
Gray Post of the American Legion
in Trenton, and member of the ex-
ecutive committee of Mercer County
He hopes to devote regular space in
the Record and News to matters per-
tanning to ex-service men. He belongs
to Cool Springs Lodge No. 1856 F. &
A. M. in Georgia, and to the Scottish
Rites Consistory in Buffalo. He is
member of Crescent Temple of the
Mystic Shrine in Trenton. Shriners
in this vicinity may remember him as
the star black-face comedian in the
three day minstrel recently conducted
by Crescent Temple.
Mr.. Cooper is anxious to meet the
people of Lambertville and New Hope
and asks that every one feel per-
fectly free to call on him at the
Record office. He will have bachelor
quarters in the building and car
always be reached by phone.

In Old New York.

Chelsea, in the neighborhood of
Twenty-third street and North river,
New York city. was the home of Gle
ment C. Moore, who wrote the child
hood classic, Twas the Night Before
Christmas" One of the admirable
old houses of Chelsea is that where
dwelt Edwin Forrest, the actor. 1t is
at 436 West Twenty-second street, a
substantial-looking square fronted
house, with a door of a great single
panel. On the spot where the New
York city hall stands, George Wash
ington paraded his little army on a
July day In 1776, and with grave
solemnity Il document was read to
them that had just been received from
Philadelphia, and which was forever
to be known as the Declaration of In
dependence.

TeIItale Faces.

Mature seems to decide in advance,
by face and gesture, what many people
are best fitted for" That is the theory
of DR.. Henry Chellew, who holds that
by studying the faces Of children, par
ents and teachers may obtain valuable
guidance as to their future careers.
The following list is brief summary
of some of his deductions: Triangular
full face-Essentially a mental type.
Unromantic, strenuous, eats little;
thinks much. Feels little, sleeps little.
Usually makes good accountant or en-
gineer. Round full face Essentially
a vital character. Sentimental. easy
going; sleeps and eats all the time,
does little work. Makes usually a
good mathematician. Pointed profile
(such as the Chamberlain family
Uncompromising, inclined to procras-
tination.

Sheep-Raising Industry.

Sheep raising is perhaps the oldest
of all industries. for 1t was practiced
even before agriculture. Wool is a
product of cultivation or domestica-
ton. for there are no wild animals
which, closely resemble the wool bear
ing sheep. Floyd w. Parsons. in the
Saturday Evening Post, says that with
the discovery that cloth could be made
from wool came an effort to improve
the fleece by selection and breeding.
The early Romans were most success
full In this pursuit. and their endeav-
ors along this line resulted in develop
ing fleece of great fneness. After
the conquest of the Iberian peninsula
Roman sheep were introduced into
Spain, where they so greatly improved
the native fiocks that even during Ro-
man supremacy Spanish wool led the
worlds markets, a prestige held for
many centuries.

Robbers visited Perkasie early Sun
day morning, entering eight homes
getting away with about $500. Entry
was gained by forcing windows, ex-
cept at the home of J. H. Meyers
where entry was gained through the

evidently looking only for money as
they left watches, jewelry and other
valuables untouched.
