SAFETY ALWAYS

A speaker at the national safe
ty council convention made a per
tinent point when he urged that
the slogan of Safety First" be
changed to Safety Always.
Everyone at once acknowledges
the wisdom of safety first. but
how many remember to be re-
gardful of safety always?
The caution that prevents &C
cidents is not the mere recogni-
ton of danger when it is called TO
attention, but the caution that is
habitual. Take crossing streets.
for example. If everybody would
habituate himself or herself to
looking at the traffic before step
ping off the curb how many &C
cidents would be averted? The
same is true of automobile acct
dents at railroad crossings. 1t is
better to be sure than sorry. The
careful driver will take nothing
for granted; he will make sure

CENSUS SHOWS FAMILY

Decrease during the last decade in
the average number OF persons in a
family and to dwelling in the United
States is indicated by comparative
statistics made public by the Census

families residing in 20,6s7,204 dwell

sons to a family and 81 persons TO a
dwelling.
In 1910 the average number of per

home of many families, constitutes
only one dwelling in the Census Blu

program followed by the Eighth
Grade Commencem ~. in the Town
Hall, Friday, May 27th.
This was undoubtedly the best
program given in Elizabeth for
some time. The fairy play given
by the fourth, fifth and sixth grades
was a thing of grace an beauty 1t
spoke well for the excellent train
ing OF Mrs. George Van Hee. The
Military play, followed by drill,
was well done.
1t seemed marvellous, that boys so
young could carry those long parts
with such ease. Warren Garlands s
piece was well rendered and the
reading of Floyd Weiss lent touch
of humor to the program.
Twelve graduated, Eight girls
and four boys. Prof. Van Hee was
very proud to know that he had the
largest class that had graduated
since Miss McCarty has been in OFF
ice. The graduates made high
averages. Irene Brumbaugh carry
ing the honors with a grade of 81
percent.
The hall was beautifully decora-
ted with plants and ferns. The class
motto was conspicuous. The exer-
cises were in keeping with the event.
Miss McCarty CAV a good address
on the Child" from the time of the
Jewish mother. until the present
time. Prof Van Hee Introducing the

twine? 1t is not too early. because
our twine supply will be based large

farmers give us. The margin of
profit on twine is always small. and
few hundred pounds left on our

over, may offset the small profits
made on a seasons twine business,

We again call attention to the ii-
portance of harvesting your crops
and performing other farm work
modern machines. Don't forget
that the expense of raising the crops
is Just as great whether you harvest
full or partial crop, or whether
the crops are good or poor. In
any case your profits come from the
excess yield per acre after enough
is raised to pay the expense of pro-
ducing the crops.
If you need repairs of any kind.

be occasioned by unforeseen condi-

We. as well as nearlyiall other i'm
