In any flock some hens will be

BIRTH CERTIFICATES FREE

In the great fireproof vaults of the
Department of Health are records of
births, marriages and deaths that have
occurred in New Jersey since 1S48.
These records which approximate
5000, 900 in number will be preserved
and remain on file indefinitely.
If you desire to visit a foreign
country a birth certificate is neces-
sary in order to secure a passport.
Birth certificates are also required in
connection with child labor laws in
securing employment. They are de-
manded by the government for enlist
ment purposes in the Army and Navy,
also to prove claims for state and gov
eminent pensions. There are also in
Vulnerable personal and legal uses for
such certificates.
When Uncle Sam endeavored to
round UP those eligible for military
tration was most apparent. Many men
were unable to determine whether
they were within the draft age, and
there is no doubt that many enlisted
who were not required to enlist, and
that fully as many failed to enlist who
should have been in the service. A
Red Cross worker, lately returned
from France, in giving advice to work
ers going over, made the following
statement: Whatever you take or
leave behind, don't forget to provide
yourself with a birth certificate" This
man found himself detained in Eng
land while he cabled across for aft
davits to substantiate the date and
place of his birth.
Since April 6, 1920, the local regis
trar of vital statistics of each city,
borough, town or township has been
required to present to the parents OF
each newborn baby a certificate OF
birth. These certificates are abso-
lutely free, and it is important that
parents have one for each child, and
further that the certificates be care
fully preserved, as it will be invalu-
able in later years. If you have had a
child born since April 9Th last, and
have not received a certificate of birth
inquire Immediately of your local
registrar, and see that one is fur

Louis would be poor and she would

they'd live in the old fiat and keep

had been talking lately of moving to
better quarters.
He took her hands in his. 'It's go

"Oh, no." she answered, trying to
repress the eXultant note in her voice,

She was about to tell him how Op-

they had almost suffocated her. How
much happier she would be to have

feel she enjoyed it.
"Wifey,' he said finally, "they want
me to tour Europe. It's a great chance.
There's big money in it, and the boys
all want to go with me. Do you sup

fool when she "dolled up" as she ex-
pressed it, but she vas frightened

disgust when she told him she had no

She didI't care about going to a

Now and again she liked to have a

Louis was a musician. He was one
of the most popular of dance conduc-
tors. He made money from royalties
on his popular songs-a great deal of
money. She had been often told that
musicians were temperamental firts.
But the ones she had see were not.
They liked cigars and pinochle and
fat checks. That wasn't so tempera-
mental. Neither was there anything
temperamental about the music pub

came in of an evening for cheese and

NEW JERSEYS MINERAL PRODUC-
TION SHOWS REMARKABLE
INCREASE IN 1920

Trenton, N. j., December 19.-The
total value of New jerseys mineral
products in 1920 was $50, 134,233, an
increase of $25, 345 ,266, or Al per cent
over the preceding year. These fig
ures were given out today by the State
Department of Conservation and De-
velopment which collects mineral
statistics in cooperation with the
United States Geological Survey. The
advance was due both to increased
production and to high prices.
Clay and clay products, which is by
far the greatest mineral industry of
the state, had a total value of SAL
7S9, 619, an increase of 81 per cent, or
SAL ,17S over 1919. Sanitary ware
made a gain of IS per cent and pottery
so per cent. 1t is said that more than
half of the visible building materials
of New York City's skyline are New
Jersey clay products. This may we'll
be true, for brick and tile to the value
Of SIS, 535, 1875 was produced in the
state last year. This was $5,3O6,946
more than in 1919 and 1887, 1894
greater imam III 1910
The greatest relative advance was in
the production of sand and gravel
where an increase in value of IS per
cent was recorded. This was brought
about in part by a drop-off in 1918 and
a slow recovery of building operations
during 1919. The total value of these
products for 1920 was $~4,330,844.
The production of stone is steadily
increasing in New Jersey and already
the value of the total output l$2,777,-

New Hampshire the Granite State"
Traprock, which is used in road max
ing, in concrete, and as railroad bal
last, stands first in Importance, and
limestone, granite, and sandstone come
next in the order named.
Coke, fuel briquets, Portland cement,
zinc ore, and minor products had a
total value of $22,376,636, an increase
Of $5,693, 211 over 1919. Iron ore was
produced to the value of 1886, 949,
the highest in the history of the in
dustry. Zinc and lead pigments, made
from ores produced outside the state,
were valued at $S,264,167, which was
an increase of 1888, 453 rel the pre-
ceding year.
Detail figures covering the entire
production in New Jersey for 1920 will
be available shortly.

she would be late! Still she would

if that was why brides were so often
late because they felt they had so
much timei
1t was a gloriously happy thought
to realize how much time she had.

holly and mistIetoe. She had always

wedding bouquet. 1t would be so
merry and Christmasy and such a
happy, gay kind of 7 bouquet.
George had consented of course. He
agreed to everything she said, be-
cause he loved her so, and she was so
fair with him, too, because she loved
him so!
The ceremony was over. They
drove away in a low sleigh with
iingling bells to the small house.
There, by themselves, they opened
presents. What a glorious time they
had.

him. Just a little bit of a surprise.

said.
