to the police, who one night recently
descended on the "court of miracles"
with an ejectment order.
But not at all disheartened, the
beggars set up house again in the open
air on a piece of waste ground and
the revelry began afresh. The blind
saw, the deaf heard, armless men took
out musical instruments and played,
while the cripples threw down their
crutches and merrily fox-trotted in the

were met by a stubborn resistance,

Where's That Dollar =?

Lambertville- The Annual Red
Cross Roll Call begins on Armistice
Day, Friday, November 18th. There
is ample reason why you should join
again this year. The Red Cross goes
wherever there is disaster. 1t did
valiant service at the time of the
great floods in Colorado and in other
sections of our own country during
the past summer. 1t is assisting the
famine stricken people in foreign
lands. 1t is spending ten million dol
lars this year for the aid of crippled
and sick ex-soldiers of the United
States Army. And right here in our
own city the Red Cross is helping
keep our people free from epidemics
of disease, helping mothers with lit
tie children and watching health
conditions in our public schools. One
dollar is the price of membership.
Half of this goes to the National or
ganization and the other half is re-
tanned for the support of local work.
Many people will wish to give more
than one dollar. They have the privi
lege of becoming contributing men,
bers for five dollars, or sustaining
members for ten dollars. Such pay
ments are much more profitable for
the local cause, as the National Or
ganization receives only fifty cents
for each class of members whether
the amount paid is one dollar, five
dollars or ten dollars.

BERT THOMAS FOR THE
FARMERS

Mr.. Thomas understands and SYM
pathizes with the agriculturist. In
conducting one Of the largest and
most responsible feed and flour mills
in Hunterdon County for years, he
has been in close touch with thous-
ands of farmers, and thru his bust
ness dealings has learned their prob
lens which are really his problems
as well.
Mr.. Thomas realizes how much
you are suffering under the present
unreasonable tax burdens and knows
that if elected he could help you
because he would be a member of
the majority party, and the passage
of helpful legislation, such as bills
designated to give Hunterdon more
aid for roads and schools, depends
upon favorable action by the major
ity. His opponent is not in harmony
with the Democratic minority led by
Governor Edwards and Jim" Nu-
gent, would therefore, be against all
and with none.
The results would be that he could
accomplish little, if anything. You
need action, not words!
Some of the farmers are urged
to support Mr.. Agans because he
has been lecturer in the State
Grange. Most farmers know as much
about farming as does Mr.. Agans,
and do not need to be told how to
farm by him. What they DO need
is active, productive effort on the
part of their representatives to the
end that their burden may be light
ened. Mr.. Thomas can be depended
upon to help you.

Madame Frijsh achieved a remark
able success with her singing in Eu-
rope before coming to America. Lon
don, New York and Boston papers
praise her wonderful interpretative
ability as we'll as her voice. So great
is her dramatic ability in the inter
probation of her songs that she is
often compared with Duse and Bern
hardt.
This very novel double attraction
is proving extremely popular in the
larger cities of the country, and the
people of Pullman are to be congrat-

it.
