Community House DiSdains
Reply to JnO. E. Barber

Sergeantsville- When asked bv
this paper if they wished to make
a reply to the article in last weeks
issue, representatives of the Ser
geants Community House answered
that they did not deem reply neces-
sary. However, when pressed for
some statement, the following was
given out:
STATEMENT
Outside of the fact that the article
clearly shows the spirit that prompt
ed the writer it is entirely void of all
merit and, therefore, any reply of
Tered would tend to add dignity to an
otherwise undignifed and most un-
fair statement.
\ For example the reference to "The
flag of freedom" and the statement
Eyes, they are farmers and not
ashamed of their avocation (vocation)
And it is quite possible for farmers
to be decent, desirable citizens" can
only be classified as a play to arouse
unworthy sentiment.
that the American farmer is from
all view points considered the very
essence of our national life, and that
upon him more so than upon any
other class of citizenship depends the
future existence and prosperity of our
country.
One might look for methods of this
kind to be resorted to by ward poll
tician, but hardly from its present
source.
(Signedy John M. Jaqueth
The Hunterdon County Board of
Taxation has handed down a decision
that provides for the assessment on
the Community House to be placed at
$4,000. This is based on the assessing
value of October 1, 1920. At that time
the activities of the House had not
begun. 1t was in dismantled con-
'dition, and on the evidence submitted
at the hearing at Pennington, August
Bird, this valuation was considered
fair. The Community House officials
say they will pay the tax on >assess-
ment. But when assessments are made
the first of October, they will have
curtailed their activities to provide
for complete exemption. The Town
ship Committee and School Board are
now using rooms for meetings, as
well as the assessor and collector. for
which they have paid a nominal fee.
1t is intimated that the officials of
the House will make no further
charge for their occupancy, but will
leave it to their sense of justice as
to what they will contribute to the
running expense.
The Community House representa-
tives further say that they aroealed
the assessment in all honesty, and
they are to abide by the decision in
the same sense of honesty.

colonnade in the shape of the letter ID,
wherein an inclosed space looks bright ana

weather, for there are windows all around II
and it is sheltered by a projection on the
roof. Opposite the middle of the colonnace
is a pleasant inner court, which leads to
handsome dining room running out to the
shore. When the wind is from the south
east It's walls are gently washed by the
waves breaking at Its foot. This room has
folding doors and windows as large as
