ENGLISH CREEK FARMER HAS
ENTRIES I'm BIG SHOW

Mr.. C. w. Walton, of English Creek,
the largest breeder of pure Chester
Whites in the East, has taken a herd
of Is head, led by his great herd boar
Amalgamator, to the International
Live Stock Show, Chicago, Ill. Every
member of his herd has been entered
for exhibition and competition.
Mr.. Walton has gone to considerable
pains to prepare the herd for the keen
competition which they will receive at
this immense show. Mr.. Walton's is
the Chester White herd that has re-
ceived so much favorable comment at
three of the largest Fairs in the East,
Syracuse, N. Y, Springfield, Mass,
and Trenton, N. j. At these Fairs this
herd won 7 championships, including
2 Grand Championships, "a first priz-
es, II second prizes, 10 third prizes,
and 2 fourth prizes. These prizes
amounted to the sum of 1851 in cash.
Great credit is due Mr.. Walton for
carrying his herd West as it is the
first time in history that a Chester
White herd from the East has been
taken to compete with the herds of
the West.
The Pleasantville Press wishes him
the best of success.

IT ISN'T FAIR
THAT'S ALL!
To Your Family-To Your Friends
To Yourself-Going Around
Half Sick.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH
If Your Blood Is Weak and CIogged
With Poisons, Pepto-Mangan Will
Strengthen and Purify 1t.

When you get over-tired day after
day, your system has to get rid of so
much waste it can't create new energy
fast enough. The result Is that your
blood is filled with waste matter. 1t
becomes %clogged. You are trying to
get around with a lot of poison in your
system.
You look bad, you feel poorly. You
get out of patience easily. Ambition
is lost. You just don't care about any
thing.
That is no way to live. Your blood
needs help for a time. 1t is starved.
You will find help in that fine tonic,
Pepto-Mangan. Pepto-Mangan puri-
fies the blood and fills it with red cor
puscles. In a little while you'll have
plenty of rich, red blood and you won't
know yourself. 1t isn't a magic medi-
cine. 1t contains iron and other in
gradients that feed starved blood and
make it rich and red. Physicians have
prescribed Pepto-Mangan for years.
Pepto-Mangan is sold in liquid and
tablet form. Take either kind you
prefer. One acts the same as the 9TH
er. Both contain the same ingredi
ents. But be sure to get the genuine
observation-disclosures" The full
name, Guides Pepto-Mangan," should
be on the package. Advertisement.

FARMERS WOULD LIKE TO SEE
DEER PEST DIFFERENTIATED

The cunning season for deer is near
at hand. Gunners are anXiously wait
ing the opening of this season. The
eyes of the majority of hunters turn
towards Atlantic County, because At
lantic County has the largest deer
population of any county in the State.
More deer are killed each year in At.
lantic County than in any other sec
ton.
From the farmers standpoint, they
are hoping that the hunters will kill
every deer in the county. The farm
ers welcome the oncoming deer sea
o and well they may, because At
lantic County farmers have suffered
a loss from the ravages of this pest
to the extent of over 500, 900 during
1920.
In a great many cases the farmers
will gladly allow hunters to enter their
lands, and hunt deer, provided they
the farmers they will regard
their property with respect. Many of
the farmers have been injured more
by unthinking careless hunters than
by deer. 1t is only right when hunters
go upon the private property of farm
ers that they exercise caution.
. Any hunter who does not know good
deer grounds, if he will write to the
county agent at Mays Landing, he
will post him.

BANKS SHOW
PROSPEROUS CONDITION

The official statements of the local
banks published in The Pleasantville

at the close of business on Nov. Is are

SO, and the First National of Absecon
total resources S~311,SS2.77 with CAPT
tai, surplus and undivided profits of

than words the excellent management
these institutions are receiving from
their officers and directors.

COUNTY ADVANCING
AS POULTRY PRODUCER.

Atlantic County has forged ahead as
a poultry producing center. Three
a ago over one-half million poul-
try houses were standing idle in this
county. To-day there are very few
poultry houses that are not occupied;
probably not more than $4,000 to $751;
900 worth. Not only have all the old
houses become utilized, but new hous-
es are being built in many sections OF
the county. The work of M nan in
the advancement of poultry interests
stands out. He is at present building
the largest incubator cellar in Atlantic
County, if not in the entire South Jer-
sey. H. NJ. Carroll, of Hammonton, is
building a cellar which has an incuba-
tor capacity that will accommodate
80, 0O eggs at one time. There should
be enough chickens Matched out to sup
ply a small portion of the trade of
Atlantic City. The success of this
large cellar is assured because Mr..
Carroll is one of the most successful
poultry r~aisers in Atlantic County.

CONGRESSMAN BACHARACH
CALLED TO WASHINGTON


Congressman Bacharach has gone
to Washington preparatory to the
opening of the last session of the Goth
Congress which will convene on Mon
day, Dec. 6. Congressman Bacharach
was called to Washington several days
in advance at the request of Floor
Leader Mondell to take part in the
deliberations of the Committee on
Committees, which has a number of
important Committee assignments to
make. The important Appropriations
Committee will practically be entirely
made over in accordance with the leg
islation passed at the last session of
Congress. This Committee will have
added to it members of the present
Committees on Agriculture, Rivers and
Harbors, Naval Affairs and Military
Affairs, and such other Committees
which have heretofore prepared appro-
priation bills for their respective De
partments. This change is made nee
essary to meet the requirements of the
new Budget Bill which was passed by
the House at the last session but
which was not reached by the Senate.
1t is expected that the Senate will
pass it early in the coming session.
The original Bill was vetoed by Presi-
dent Wilson because, as he claimed,
it interfered with the power of the
President in making appointments and
in removing the new officials created
by the Budget Bill.

ATLANTIC COUNTY TAKES
FIRST HONoRS IN EXAMS

AT the preliminary examination for
the purpose of selecting candidates to
fill a vacancy at Annapolis from the
Second Congressional District, held in
Cape May City on Friday, Nov. 26,
eleven candidates presented them
selves for examination, six from At
lantic County, three from Cape May
and two from Burlington. It is a very
singular thing that there were no can
didates from Cumberland County,
which is very much regretted by Mr..
Bacharach, who is always DESTROYS of
having a big class OF candidates.
As a result of the examination the
Committee has recommended to Con-
gresham B%acharach the c~ertification
of William G. Lind of Atlantic City, as
principal candidate, and Irwin Holt OF
~Pleasantyille, and E. Lester Kiger, of
Atlantic City, as first and second alter
mates, respectively. Atlantic County
carried off all the prizes and in ac-
cordance with the recommendation of
the Committee, Congressman Bacha-
rach has made his nominations to the
Navy Department.
Upon his election to Congress, Mr..
Bacharach inaugurated the custom of
making his nominations upon the basis
of a competitive examination open to
all boys of the Second Congressional
District who are qualified to take the
same. MI. Bacharach's examinations
differ from those conducted by other
members of Congress in that his Elk
aiming Committee is made up of the
County Superintendent of Schools,
while the other examinations are ISL
ally conducted by the Civil Service
Commission. The wisdom of holding
these examinations as conducted by
Congressman Bacharach is we'll devel-
oped in the fact that not one of the
boys nominated by him to either of
the National Service Schools has eyer
been dropped from classes either be-
cause of failure in studies or for mis-
conduct. The District is greatly in
debted to the County superintendent
of the District who comprise Mr.. Bach
arach's Board of Examiners for the
time and attention which they have
unselfishly devoted to the conduct OF
these examinations, and grateful &C
acknowledgement for their assistance is
made by Congressman Bacharach.

FIRE ALARM SIREN IMPROVED
BY CHARLES w. SCHMIDT

Through the energy and labor of
Charles w. Schmidt, residents of
Pleasantville can now hear the fire
siren from North. South, East and
West. The old method produced sound
only in two directions and very often
volunteer firemen could not hear the
alarm. Mr.. Schmidt and his able as
sistants, Frank Plumridge and Irwin
Hiebee, constructed four horns which
they have painted and placed into po-
sition. A test was made and the alarm
WAS heard distinctly in Mortified.

Hampered by Drifts
500 LINE MAIL HAULED
FROM WESLEY BY FOUR
HORSE TEAMS -- TRAIN
GOT THROUGH TO RAY
MCND THURSDAY.

TIL 500 Line has not been op-
ened since the big blizzard of
nearly a fortnight ago. All eff
forts made so far by that rail-
road to put trains through to
Whitehall have been fruitless.
Early in the week a train
was gotten through to Westby
and the mail was taken on
along the 500 Line by a four
horse team, and Wednesday Il
train was put through to Ray
nond. 1t is expected that in a
couple of days more the trains
on that railroad will be running
normally.
The blockade of the 500 Line
has caused a great deal of in
convenience to the travelling
public, and it seems that the
warm weather is to be thanked
for moving the snow and OPEN
ing the track, the task SEEM
ed too big for the railroad.

1t is alleged by the Moe Bros, that
the embezzeling Of these funds was
not done from any motive of avarice
or ill feeling, as none such was known
to exist: The cause is laid to a lack

weak to resist temptations that ne

MAY ENDORSE PRESI-
DENTAL CANDIDATE

The World War Veterans are grow
ing to immense proportions.
In fact, that organization, which is
the oldest of the World War Veterans
organization, being organized on the
bloodsoaked battle fields of France
only few days after the arnistice
was signed, by the boys Of The,
RANK and FILE, is growing so fast
that the Office force at the Minneapo-
lis headquarters can hardly take care
of the increase in membership.
This growth is normal and healthy,
being spontaneous and enforced by
any patronage of the national gov
eminent, or wide publicity by the
kept press"
The growth of the World War Vet
Grams has come from the rank and
file of the soldiers, who went to
France to fight for an ideal, the ideal
embodied in the word, Democracy"
and who not only believe in democra-
cy for the downtrodden, subjects of
European despotisms, but also for the
people of the United States, and for
the American wage slave, the serfs of
our deSpotic industrial Barons, who
rule with cruellcr hands than any
European despot of this or the last
century.
These soldiers have been attracted
by the slogan of the World War Vet
Grams, "rhe Interpretation of the
Constitution as it is Written" or in
other words, because of the fact that
the World War Veterans stand for
the ideals of the fathers of this re-
public, those ideals which were con-
sccrated by their blood, and which
ideals are examplitied in the "Bill of
Rights" by which is guaranteed the
rights of Free Speech, Free Press,
and Free Assemhlage and The Rights
Of Petition; and also because the
World War Veterans have never been
implicated in any mob attacks on any
body or organization, nor have any
body been deported or lynchcd under
their auspices, nor have meetings
been broken up or theatres mobbed
under the cover Of their name; and
further because the World War Vet
Grams does not represent any aristo-
cratic officers clique, and because it
was not built up by either the money
or favor of the big plundering inter-
ests, and further that organization is
not ruled from the top but from the
bottom as democratic organizations
should he.
REPORT OF CALL.
"A hurry-up call for convention has
been issued from National headquar-
ters of the WORLD WAR VETER-
ANS at Minneapolis
"The rapid increase of the men,
bership and the many important ques-
tons up for consideration is the rea-
son for this early call. The conven-
ton may endorse U. S. President;
decide whether to line up with the
