to him in such quantities as he wants II,

service of delivery that makes his business
possible.
The public needs just as much to know
where ii can find doctor as 1t needs to know
the location of grocer and often this need
| is far more urgent.
If doctor has service to SELL and that is
all that he has, why should he not let the
public know that he has it for sale. He sells
his service and there seems IN he no laeiti-
mate reason why he should not lot neonlo
know where needed service can be bought
a stranger in community is often very much
az loss to Know where to find q doctor who
Is equipped to treat his case and he must
depend upon asking some person whose
| opinion may be worth nothing, as to where
he can find doctor
The same thing is true OF lawyers They
have service to sell, but very few of them
that the public needs. Sometimes man
needs lawyer at once, and he has no salts
factory way of finding one. Unless he has
personal acquaintance with one, he must de-
pend on such information as he can pick M
from others.
1t is said that if man makes the best
hammer in the world, the world will make Il
beaten path to his door even though his
mouse De hidaen away in the wilderness. 1t
Is very probable that he would starve before
the path was made. and il is certain that
many man will use an Indifferent hammer

if he did not hang out his sign his next door
neighbor may die because he did not know
about him.

1t is a lamentable fact that the territory of

very little consideration in the planning OF

our immediate section has never been prop

Learning to Write Adv. Copy

Printers ink has an interesting story of
how an advertising man learned to write
copy in an unusual and yet in a very natural
way. He and his wife left their home for
several weeks. He returned before she did

had been in the hands of the plumbers be-

Should Professional Men Advertise !,

In number OF professions there is an

man sells his service just as really as he
does his flour. In fact, what he does is TO

Autoists Have Icy Time

Half hundred Delaware Town
ship folks, under the leadership of
Frank ]. Eppele, of that township,
and also part time resident of Tren-
ton, feel that they bear charmed lives
since five of the autos in which they
were riding cut figure Fights on the
ice near Whitehouse Saturday, and
two of them-one owned by Kensyl
c.. Reading and the other by Cyrus j.
Bissey-completed the revolution by
turning over and dumping out their
| occupants.
The entire party, all of its men,
bers hailing from Sergeantsville,
Rosemont and Headquarters, were on
their way to New York Saturday to
attend play at Madison Square Gar
den when the first of the ten
autos struck an icy hill near White
house. One slid down a bank, two
turned around in the rosd, and the
Reading auto made three complete
turns and then upset along a bank.
The Bissey car, following, turned
around, and went over the bank on
the north side of the road, turning
completely over and wrecking the top,
although not injuring any one of the
occupants.
The Eppeles had two cars in the
line, their large Cadillac following in
the rear, with Mr.. Eppele driving.
Unable to hold the heavy car on the
slippery incline, to avoid smashing
into the other cars, he ran his over a
bank into field, without serious dam
age, but on slim chances.
Rev. j. M. Jaqueth was one of the
few who was able to stop his car with
out upset or leaving the road, and
when the badly dazed crowd was col
lected it was a question whether they
would experience any more thrills by
continuing their journey. The Read
ing car was badly smashed on the side
that hit the bank, but was able to con-
tinue the journey after being righted
by the men, and with the occupants
of the Bissey car divided among the
other parties.
Lated in the day gravel was spread
over this spot by the county authori-
ties, number of cars having had
thrilling experiences at the same
place. The attention of the Board of
Freeholders will be called to the mat
ter and they will be/asked to provide
guard rails and otherwise safeguard
this place for future icy weather
travel.

Brick Plant Looks Sure

The shale brick industry planned
for New Hope several years ago anc
dormant for a long time, appears
about to materialize.
The Clay Products Company Of
America, of which r. c. Burton, Of
GAINESVILLE, o., is president, has taken
an option on the two farms of the
Eastburn Reeder Estate, to the west
of this borough, and expects to pay
the purchase price of $4,000 by Feb
ruary L.
One of the farms is located at Reed
ef Station, one mile west of the Dor
ough, and the other farm at the
northwesterly borough limits, the lat
ter having recently been bought by
Anderson T. Herd, the New York
fpeeIIe STU o. ppe o. 'eI!euogIIu
large holdings in Solebury Township
The local deposit is of unlimited
quantity, and said to make the best
vitrifled brick in the country, and the
new company is believed to have am
pie funds for erecting a plant costing
from half million dollars for the
original installation up to several
millions for a complete equipment.
In 1918 several thousand dollars
was expended on the Huffnagle farm
at Huffnagle station, in this borough,
toward erecting a plant, by New York
people, but finally dropped. The new
industry, if it's expectations are rea-
lized, will make New Hope serious
rival of Lambertville a center of
business and population.

Hunterdon Co., Historical Society

The thirty-sixth annual meeting
was held at Pennington, Saturday,
January 10th, 1920. AS no papers
were read, the, attendance was small,
and the business of the meeting was
largely routine. Two new members
were elected.
President Frank E. Burd, of Pat
tenburg, presided. Reports of of
f1cers and committees showed that
accessions to the library and museum
had continued as in former years. A
vote of thanks was passed to the
donors, including the publishers of
eleven of the weekly newspapers pub
lished in the county, who had sent
their papers regularly, to be filed for
future reference. No newspapers
were bound during the year, as the
Trustees thought the present cost of
binding was greater than the use made
of the files, and the resources of the
Society warranted.
Among the articles received during
the year is the army chest of Colonel
Charles Stewart, Commissary Gen
eral in the Revolution, presented by
Mrs. A. S. Taylor, of Newark. Col
Stewart lived at Landsdown on the
farm afterward occupied by Capt
Hoyt, later removing to Pennington.
He is buried in the cemetery of the
Bethlehem Presbyterian Ccureh at
Grandin.
The G. A. R. and the Sons of Veter-
ans at Pennington have disbanded,
and a number of their record books
and relics were presented to the So
ciety.
Two prominent members of the So
ciety passed away during the year,
Hon. John L. Comet, of Pennington
and Abijah R. Brewer, of Glen Ridge,
secretary of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company.
1t was voted that the date of the an
nual meeting be changed to some
other month, and on day other than
Saturday, the exact date to be de-
cided by the Trustees.
DIR. o. H. Sproul, Egbert I. Bush
Hiram E. beats, Miss Mary E. Dun
ham, Walter F. Hayhurst, E. Vessel
Ter and William Bells were elected
Trustees. At the close of the meet
ing the Trustees organized by the
