LETTER OF THANH

We desire to express our appreeia-
ton and gratitude to the people of this
community for their sincere efforts in
our behalf, occasioned by the loss of
our son, and TAXI this means of eX-
pressing heartfelt thanks to all.
As we heard the waters ripple.
Up against the Oldman's bank.
We stood there, entirely helpless,
Into it our little boy sank.
In our sadness, crushed with sorrow,
Working all day inc all night long.
seemed to hear a chorus of friend
ship,
A stiffness in a sad sweet song.
Your sympathies long will be remem-
bered,
And it is going to help us through.
For your help, we extend our heart
felt thanks.
To you and o and you
As we approach the days of sadness.
With hearts that are almost broken,
still hear the song of friendship,
And appreciate its token.

mittee showed that there are at pres
ent IL prisoners there and that the
expense for the last month was
S434.20, or So 5-8 cents per day per
man. At the Jail there were five pris-
oners. The cost of maintenance was
S142.59, or so cents per day per pris-
oner.
A resolution was adopted accepting
the 3rd Section of the Malaga-Penns
Grove road as recommended by the
Road Committee.
Engineer Keasby submitted a report
of his trip with the County Engineers
Association last month when they
went over a number of roads in north
ern New Jersey. He also told of the
discussions of the association or the
wear of new roads and the different
propositions discussed for the financ-
ing the road work of the State. 1t is
the general opinion that truck owners
should pay their share of this expense.
One proposition is to tax the gasoline
used, but no feasible way has been
suggested for collection of such tax.
The roads of this State suffer by rea-
son of the present reciproc ity laws.
He stated that the truck tax In New
Jersey was about the lowest in the
country. 1t was higher in New York
and in Pennsylvania. In Georgia
trucks are taxed 500, but this is done
to keep them out.
Engineer Keasby said that there had
not been a census of the traffic in this
county because of the expense. Now,
however, he has arranged to have a
census taken at no extra cost which
will no doubt furnish valuable data for
the Board.
The Road Committee submitted a
supplemental report which carried
with it a new agreement with the New
Jersey Gas Company. This Company
has several pipe lines in the county
and they are now obliged to accompa-
ny their application to open up the
same with a cash deposit. The new
agreement still requires them to make
formal application to open up their
lines but not to accompany it with the
cash. The Director and clerk we're
authorized to execute the contract.

Heated CONTROVERSY on Road
EncrOachment

Continued from page
the original road and stated that this
would create a precedent, that others
could demand that the road be widened
and then the Traction Company's
tracks would be on the porches of
other property owners.
The amendment was adopted by a
vote of II to 3, Messrs. Rankin, Pow
ers and Layman voting against it.
The resolutions as amended were
then adopted by a vote of 9 to 5.
This time the nays were Messrs. Ran
kin, Smith, Powers, May and Heron.
In explanation of his vote Mr..
Heron stated that he was in favor of
a wider road but that they could get
nine feet more without disturbing the
point it would also have to be done at
other points along the section. AS
it is they will take a corner of another
property.
On motion of Mr.. Gaventa the en-
gineer was instructed to notify the
contractor to finish the work as far
as the angles at each end of the mar
row portion of the road and leave that
part alone until the extra width has
been secured.
This will mean about 600 feet of the
roadway not finished this year and
perhaps not for two years.
Another resolution instructed the
gineer to take the proper steps to pro-
cure from the owners of the proper
ties the frontage that they are now
occupying and to which they are not
entitled.
The session in the morning started
out in a tame enough manner that
gave promise that the business would
all be done before adjournment for
dinner.
County Collector Griscom was in
structed by resolution to pay over to
J. Emmor Robinson, treasurer of the
Almshouse Trustees, $1,000 to pay the
current expenses of the almshouse.
Salaries of Road Camp Guards Raised
A resolution offered by the Finance

Those who want and need a king
to tell them what to do have no need
of a newspaper. They are not the best
to be American citizens whose duty It
is to read and learn about public in
stitutions.
Some think 5 cents too much for q
local paper yet nowhere else al they
learn Of their local institutions which
they should have a knowledge of to
be fit for self government.
This issue of the Penns Grove Rec
ord contains the reports of the bank
ing institutions where your money is
kept. The report of the Borough
Council and County Board of Free
holders tells what your local legisla-
tors are doing. The report of the
School Supervisor tells what your pub
lie educational institution did during
the past school year.
We publish two columns on general
State news as to charge for gas,
bonus to public officials and pollution
of public waters. Then there are two
columns on National affairs and ship
building interests on the Delaware.
All these every citizen should feel an
interest in. One can not be a true
citizen of Democracy if they do not.
After summing up the Importance Of
all these institutions, every one Of
which touches your pocket book, the
information in this issue of the
Penns Grove Record is worth S1.0O to
the live American citizen who could
not get it for five cents. Where can
you get more valuable information
which concerns you personally for
the money
This information cannot be gotten
from a daily paper.

to belong TO the Massachusetts colony;
they wanted a separate colony Of their
own. They heard of beautiful eoun-
try west Of the Saybrook settlement
and soon sent Mr. Eaton and few
other men to inspect it. These men
selected place for a settlement near
the mouth of the Quinnipae River
They built a hut there and left some
servants 10 stay in it during the win
ter while the remainder returned to
Boston to tell their friends what they
had found. The following spring Mr..
Davenport and his company sailed for
Quinnipac where they established the
settlement that soon afterwards was
named New Haven.
After purchasing land Of the Indi-
ans the New Haven people began 70
make other settlements few miles
away. Milford and Guilford were set
tied one year later and were followed
by other settlements in surrounding
towns.

TO BE SOLD FOR JUNK

The old side wheel steamboat, Block
Island, for 81 years in service as an
excursion boat, is to be sold for junk
at Newport, r. L., where the old veter-
an has been standing at dock. Her
last service was to house gang of
brio klayer strikebreakers.
For years the New Haven road ran
excursions from Worcester to Watch
Hill and Block Island, stopping at in
teI1nediate stations. The boat left
Norwich, sailed down the Thamas and
then across to her destination. But
there was many a day that the boat
did not dare venture beyond the
"Hlr' on account of high seas or fog.
Summer after summer, Sunday
schools, associations and lodges Of
Putnam, held excursions and outings
on the Block Island, and for years,
especially before the advent of the au-
tomobile. it was the most popular day
trip hereabouts.

NEW TELEPHONE BOOKS
New London District Includes 20 Ex-
changes, Including Putnam

The new telephone directories were
distributed on Tuesday. AS had been
stated in advance, the state is divided
into districts with book for each dis
trict instead of having one large book
for all of the exchanges in the state
The new book includes the New
London district" and the exchanges
listed are: New London, Carolina,
Colchester, Danielson. Deep River,
Fishers Island, JeWett City, Lebanon,
Lyme. Moosup, Mystic, Mantle, Nor
wich. Putnam, Saybrook, Stafford,
Westerly, Watch Hill and Whitman
tic. While the old book numbered in
all 324 pages, the present book has
but 1l6 pages. The quality of paper
is about the same as in the old books,
which tore so easily and gave much
inconvenience. The present book be-
ing much lighter, this annoyance may
not occur.
In making the change the company
stated that it was TO save paper, and
this will doubtless be accomplished to
considerable degree as evidenced by
the materially decreased pages. 1t
is believed that little or no inconven-
ienoe will be experienced by the
change
