Lambertville-Th funeral of War
rem A. Greens, banker and manufac-
turer, who die dat his home on York
Street Monday morning after a
long illness,was held Wednesday even
ing the First Presbyterian Church,
being one of very few services of
that kind to be held in such an edi-
fee at eveningtime, in this section.
Services were conducted by the
Rev. Theron Lee, pastor o fthe
church, and tht Rev. Henry A. Mac
kubbin. D. D., of Philadelphia, for
mer pastor of the church. There
was large turnout of friends and
business acquaintance, many COM

eral Express, and interment was
made this morning in Swan Point

years, and superintendent of the

RED CROSS
APPEAL

The Lambertville Branch of the
American Red Cross is now asking
for pledges to carry on the work of
the Public Health Nurse during the
fiscal year commencing June 1.
The amount required to cover sal
airy of Nurse and incidental expenses
is estimated at $500.
The value of the work and the cap
ability of Miss lWhitlow have been
SO clearly demonstrated during the
doubt is felt that our citizens will
subscribe a sufficient sum to insure
the continuance Of the service for
another year. In order to do this it
is necessary that all individuals, bust
ness concerns, churches, lodges and
societies and charitable organizations
that contributed last year should at
least renew their subscriptions. In
addition there must be some increases
or some new subscriptions, as the
amount subscribed last year fell
somewhat short of being sufficient.
1t is the earnest wish of the Red
Cross Executive Committee that this
nursing service be made permanent
part of the local work of the Red
Cross Society.
All former subscribers are request
ed to notify the Treasurer or some
member of the Finance Committee of
the renewal of their subscriptions
for the same or if possible some
what larger amount.
Persons who did not subscribe last
year are earnestly requested to do so
now. No general canvass will be
made as it is thought that this form
of notice will be sufficient to insure
the necessary support for this pure
ly local service that has meant so
much to our school children and our
sick people who do not need or can
not afford the constant services of a
trained nurse.
At the option of subscribers, sub
scriptions may be paid at once or in
installments as desired by the sub
scriber at any time from June / to
December 81, 1921,

GERMANY MUST PAY

Another note from Secretary Hughes
Of vast import. was sent TO Germany
in reply TO requests from Berlin for
statement Of the administrations
lttitude in the matter of renarations.
This document dashed the hopes of
he Germans that the refusal of Amer
ca to ratify the treaty of Versailles
meant an Endorsement Of their effOIts
o escape punishment. They were In
ormed that this government stands
it'll the governments Of the allies in
Gliding Germany responsible for the
mr. and. therefore, morally bound to
Ike PREPARATION. so far as may he
,ssible."
The only consolation for the Ger
ans in the note was the expressed
one that reopened negotiations may
,ad to a prompt settlement which
.iIl Mt the same time satisfy the just
.laims of the allies and permit Ger
many hopefully to renew its produc-
i've activities"
The German note suggested that the
My solution If the PREPARATIONS prob
IN is an International loan, In favor
of which the allied and associated
powers wo''ld waive the geleial mort
gage ON German assets created by the
treaty of Versailles Il also invited
the examination by unbiased experts
of Germany's ability to make payment.
On these propositions the American
reply made no comment.

urday evening, April 9th, for the

THIEVES GET
OFF EASY

ambertville-Three dollars per
head is the price that must be paid
for stolen chickens, according to the
decision of County Judge Large in
connection with the arrest of George
Agin and Harold Bilby on the charge
of taking forty-four prize chickens
from the hennery of Edward Bohn.
Agin and Bilby, the former of this
city and the latter of New Hope and
Trenton, were arrested in the Capital
City on Tuesday, with some seventy
five chickens in their possession,
forty-four of which were identified
as belonging to Bohn.
Harry W. Daniels, a local taxi
owner, was arrested at the same
time. he having conveyed Agin and
Bilby to Trenton, but he was later
cleared, proving beyond question that
he had been misled by their state
ments, and that they simply used
him as the first taxi driver they hap
pened to meet.
When they were brought to Justice
of the Peace James H. Reynolds of
flee in this city, prior to being remov-
ed to Pennington, they were arrest
ed on complaint of Wallace P.
Thornton, local agent of the Society
for Prevention of Cruelty to Ami
mails, and fined $40 each and costs,
which they paid. Mr.. Thornton
states that, under the law. they We're
liable for total fines of $440 each, or
| $40 for each chicken that was smooth
cred in the bags in which they were
carried, but Justice Reynolds let them
| off easy. --''-z'-=.------
Rather than face the grand jury,
and later bunch of farmers, in the
Hunterdon County Courts, they
pleaded guilty before Judge George
Large and were put on probation for
six months, on a promise to pay for
the chickens. Mr.. Bohn, the owner
of the fowls, which were high-grade
Rhode Island Reds, declares that he
was not consulted about the price to
be paid, but that the court set SO a
head, and it is alleged that Agin and
Billy were given until Saturday
night to pay the money. They will
have to report to Policeman Morse
for a period of six months.
Many chickens have been stolen
lately in this section, and local poul-
try owners are highly indignant
that men caught with the fowls in
their possession should go practi-
cally free. without trial or public
hearing. In the meantime, many of
them are loading up double-barreled
guns with buckshot, and announce
their determination to shoot to kill if
they catch any maurauders in their
| hen houses.
