Burgenland was recently in the

clude every municipality instead of

fective in all municipalities having
a population in excess of ten thous-
and persons, except in cities where.

ed by the mayor or other chief ex-
ecutive.

made by Assemblyman Peterson to-
day, the bill will be amended in

DELIGHTFUL FUNCTION

Although the masquerade ball in
the auditorium of the Y. M. II. A.
last night under the auspices of the
Jewish Home for the Aged and Or
phans was given for purely benefit
cial purposes, its success as a social

toned financial success at every
angle. Nearly $50 couples, masqued
and attired in costumes both unique
and pretty, filled the hall to COM
plete the gala picture presented. The
decorations were of red, white and
blue, with streamers strung to the
furthest corners, with shaded lights
and the American flags draped ar
tistically in the immediate center.

ira played continually throughout

raiders while the committee in charge

the steamship Old North State. Rav-
ing sailed from London. England.
after he received passports from the
American and Polish consulate.
Young Zylka came to this country

tions. but the government authori-

sent out of Norfolk on Washington s
birthday. He landed in France and
from there went to England, where
he secured passage. He was well
supplied with money and will make
his home with his uncle here.
