What One Dollar Will Do

At the beginning of a new year a
new leaf is turned over, but the bust
ness mar balances the accounts for
the old year. One has money due
him because he has trusted another
for services rendered or goods bought
or sold.
Some say money is tight. One
tight dollar is a block under the
wheels Of commerce. The dollar is
the unit Of account and the life blood
of commerce. 1t is the red corpuscles.
Pay every dollar you owe and the
n you pay it to can pay his bills.
Keep the dollar paying bills, then
labor and commerce will move. The
man who holds on to the dollars he
owes the other man blocks labor and
industry, stops prosperity.
Start the dollar moving by paying
old bills; they can be returned for
more labor and goods.
Start them. Try it.

PrOtestants' Belief

20. Protestants reject Traditions
and accept the Bible as the true faith
of morals and practice.
8. Protestants believe they have a
brain to think, reason and Judgment
to make on the scriptures they read
as well as the fathers who comprised
the Council of Trent in 1915 to 1868.
4. Protestant accept two sacra-
ments only, Baptism and the Eu-
charist.
6. Protestants believe that the
Priest does not have power to forgive
sin, neither has he the power to
change a wafer of flour and water
into flesh and bone, nor Intoxicating
wine into blood.
Z. Protestants do not believe there
is a Purgatory.
8. Protestants do not believe in
worshiping images of the Virgin
Mary MOI the image of any person or
thing. See second commandment.
9. Protestants do not believe in the
sale or granting of indulgences.
10. Granting that the Council of
Trent made dogmas beitting for their

they are grown-ups able to read and

age and entitled to freedom in State
craft and freedom in Religion.
IL. Other religious men have held
Councils since 1868 and formulated
creeds and dogmas fitted to the pro-
gressive age of people in learning and
revelations made by God to the minds
of thinking men. Some sects hold
councils representing the foremost
religious men every four years to
meet changing conditions, and that the
people they represent believe they are
p years of age, entitled to formulate,
think and act as the wise men did in
1863. They owe no political nor re-
hgious allegiance to the pope MOI any
other men, only to a set of principles.

Freedom of Mind
Thomas jefferson, the father of the

mind free and manifested His Supreme
will that free it shall remain by MAX

HISTORY AND PRINCIPLES
As Men Thinketh In Their Minds Re-
ligiousIy So They Are Politically

The Record has the past two months
published articles on the Pilgrims, the
first settlers who brough the religious
Nation is founded. 1t was done to
inform our readers as to the origin of
Our Government and how it grew to
be a mighty nation.
The 300th anniversary of the settle
ment at jamestown, Va, was cele-
brated in 1907 by a great exposition.
Much more was made of it than that
of the Pilgrims this year.
The Pilgrims were the founders of
the Public School system which gives
all an equal opportunity to learn and
become qualified intelligent citizens
to read and think for themselves,
something which was given by
those who believe in the parochial
church school.
The opening of the parochial school
in Penns Grove, January 3, 1921, is an
historic event, because of its innova-
ton. The reason for it is to continue
the system from which our ~forefathers
came to America to get from under.
What they believe and system may
be public interest to know.
There is no personal enmity nor i'll
will between citizens in learning and
honest, frank discussion. 1t is the be-
lief and system contrary toI American
principles that is disproved of. What
those principles and dogmas are were
written at the Council of Trent, Italy,
between 1913 and 1868, by men who
believed they fitted the conditions in
those times. Most people believe they
do not fit now.
What the belief is and what quail
tications are required of the teachers,
called Sisters" is found in st. Vim
cents Manual, prepared for the use
of the Sisters of Charity in the United
States, with the appreciation of Car
dinal Gibbons. 1t is as follows:

Women and Church

When St. Paul said that women
should not be heard in the churches
he was writing for his own time and
the peculiar conditions; he was not
talking to the enfranchised woman
hood of America in 1921. Women are
already heard and needed in every
branch of the activity of a modern
church, and if they are not allowed
both hand and voice, the institution
languishes. One Of the chief reasons
why men go to church is because some
women wishes it.
In the Philadelphia Presbytery the
vote that has just been taken on the
issue of permitting women to serve
as elders shows an overwhelming pre-
ponderance in favor of admitting
them to religious responsibilities on a
par with those which they now have
politically. If women are fit members
of a jury, they deserve to be members
of a controlling board in church juris-
dictiOn. If they are fit to vote and
hold office in a secular realm, is there
any inferiOrity of character or conduct
or spiritual nature which makes them
unfit associates for the men who man.
age church affairs?
1t is time to- get away from medic
val or a Levatine attitude in these
matters. 1t is only a supreme conceit
on the part of a church officer which
makes him assume a superior COM
potency in matters which are fifty the
province of good women. 1t is anon

pending On women to carry forward
virtually all the benevolences and
vigorously excluding them from hav-
ing anything to say about the disposal
of the funds which they have done so
much to collect. There are many
matters in which the counsel of
women elders would be especially
helpful. There is, for instance, the
question Of the music. The educated
taste OF d woman in such a matter
might often be drafted into service
most advantageously. 1t cannot be
long before the churches adopt . mod
ern, enlightened and progressive
policy and admit women to a personal
participation in the councils of the in
stitutions of which they are the chief
supporters.-Ledger.

That America has a larger per-

other country in the world, with the
possible exception of Japan, is the
statement made in a report issued by

Judging Contests In Agriculture

The State Department of Public In
struction will conduct during "Agri-
cultural Week." at Trenton, a series of
judging contests in which boys who
are studying practical agriculture in
the vocational schools and high school
of the State are the contestants. Corn,
potatoes, swine and dairy cattle will be
judged by these boys. Trophy cups
given by firms and individuals inter-
ested in the development of New Jer-
sey's program of teaching vocational
agriculture in the public schools are
the prizes offered. With the excep-
ton of a potato contest, which is new
this year, similar work in judging was
held last year during agricultural
Week" with a team from Belvidere
winning the corn cup, one from Elem
ington the dairy cup and n from
Shiloh the swine cup. These cups
must be returned for competition this
year, and naturally the boys who won
them are anxious to take them back
to their schools, and the boys from the
other schools are just as anxious that
they do not take them back. This
means keen competition. The corn
and potato contests will be held at the
Armory on January 18th, and the
swine and dairy cattle contests at the
State Hospital Farm, near Trenton, on
January 18th.
Agriculture is now taught in "A
school centers in New Jersey and the
number of places offering this kind of
practical instruction is increasing as
rapidly as schools make application to
the State Department of Public In
struction for help in organizing the
work. The agricultural departments
are Federally aided and the work is
part of a nationwide movement for
vocational education.

census, 1S9,607 were from urban
centers and 1898 from the rural
sections OF the country. Divorced
persons made up half of one
per cent of the entire population.
That may sound a reasonable al
lowance, but it is a GOOD deal more
than other countries allow thera-
selves, and far more than this
country permitted itself years age.
Slletchirg the rising popularity of
the divorce court, the I~nterchurch
report points out that in 1887 there
were only $3.50 divorces granted
in the United States. In 1906 the
number had jumped to 1902, an
increase of 81 per cent, whereas the
increase in population during the
same period was only 80 per cent.
When the figures of the present
census appear, it seems probable
that the rate of Increase in divorce
will be found to he even higher.

the lnterchurch report points out
that "the family. the great basic in

Jackson's Surplus and Subtreasury

At times we have published one anC
two columns about our past Presi
dents to teach our readers about oul
country's history and what was done
during their administrations. Those
acquainted with histories have noticed
that what has been put in the RECORD
has been new information to them.
The administration of Andrew Jack.
son is unique in history in that he was
the first to stop corporations running
the Government and he got the United
States out of debt and had a surplus
of $28,101 ,644.91. This was distributed
to the States . New Jersey got 1854.
$40. The State distributed the sur
plus to the counties. Salem County
got about $4,000, but it dwindled tc
about $4,000 by bad investments.
During the Civil War the Board of
Freeholders had it all paid in and Dor
rowed it themselves to pay war debt,
Instead of paying the wal debt and
loaning the money they assess every
year the interest of about $210O and
pay it back to the municipal school
funds.
Penns Grove gets 1882; Upper
Penns Neck, 5000, and Oldmans, $50;
Lower Penns Neck, $40 as legacies
from Andrew Jackson's administra-
ton, the most momentous one be-
tween George Washington's and
Abraham LincOln's administration.

Su%btreasuries were established in
the large cities. That in New York
was closed last December 3, 1920,
after being in existence since 1915 be-
cause its usefulness was taken over by
the Federal Reserve bank.
President jackson killed political
banking in 1892, by vetoing the bill to
establish the third United States
Bank. Political banking returned dur
ing the Civil War and lasted until the
Federal Reserve law was enacted in
1914, under President Wilson. 1t is
considered the greatest financial law
ever enacted and it is universally be-
lieved the great World Mar could not
have been financed without it.
Because of Jackson's holiness in
war and firmness in principles and
rugged honesty in administration, like
the hickory tree which is hard to bend
and cannot be broken, he was called
"Old Hickory"
One of the songs of Jackson's ad-
mirers was this:
"Freemen! cheer the hickory tree,

thee.
