POLITICAL THUNDER

Party organs are already waxing hySterical over the proposed visit of President Harding to Alaska next year, and mouthing their mushy
 thanks for the great honor to be
 bestowed upon the Territory and
 the benefits to the Territory that
 will result.
 Of course the trip will be bene- ficial-probably as much so to the President as to the Territory. But so far as gaining frst-hand infor- nation regarding the requirements of the Territory is concerned, he will learn nothing that he does not already know.
 We know it is useless to ask why the political rags cannot be honest rather than slushy useless because the word honesty" was deleted from the politicians dictionary long ago.
 As the First ( itizen of the United States, the President will be ac- corded the honor and respect due to his office, and nothing will be left undone to make his visit an enjoyable one. In fact a large pro- portion of the population will be glad to give him a real, hearty, hos pitable Alaskan welcome if they can break through the circle of fawning politicians with whom he is sure IL Uo aurrounded,

Gold From a Kitchen Tap.

Gold straight from the faucet has
been discovered in Vancouver, British
Columbia. L. Gartley, an experienced
mining prospector, was getting a drink
of water not long ago at his kitchen
sink when he noticed a trace of black
sand in the bottom Of the glass. In
stantly the thought of gold flashed
over him, for black sand Is an indi-
Gator of gold-bparing formations. He
drew more ate hastily and, pan
ming It in a convenient cooking pan,
found gold as well ms fakes Of mica,

WOMAN'S CLUB MUSICALE

The first of the bi-monthly meetings
of the Penns Grove Woman's Club for
January was held on Tuesday evening,
at the home of Mrs. John NJ. Sum
merrill, on Maple Avenue. The prin-
cipal intention of the program was in
reference to music written by Carrie
Jacobs Bond and was enjoyed by
everyone present, who numbered
about fifty-fve.
Woman's Club musical program:
Vocal solos were sung by Mrs. Fred
j. Peters and Mrs. Mary Stevens. Ghe
former sang To-day Is Nine by
Charles Gabriel, and "Con Templamon
Ell Mundro' Tin Spanish), by D.
Choss. There was a group of songs,
the words and music of which were
written by Carrie Jacobs Bond. They
included "His Lullaby" and "Shad-
ows." sung by Mrs. Peters; "a Perfect
Day." 81 Love You Truly" Gust a
Wearyin' For You," "Des Hold My
Hands Tonight" and Little HUI
Lady" sung by Mrs. Stevens.
An interesting and eidightening
reading concerning Carrie Jacobs
Bond was given by Mrs. Ralph P.
Willis. She told of the life and cir
cumstances which developed some of
the songs and led to their publication.
"a Perfect Day" was written as an
appreciation of a sightseeing journey
over the Rocky Mountains and the
deepening of friendship with those
who accompanied her. The sadness
of Mrs. Bond concerning the loss OF
her husband by death a few years ago,
after their marriage, lends a deep per
sonality to the sorrow but yet the
steadfastness of a feeling deep in its
humanity.
She never secured any company to
publish her songs but later it became
possible for her to assume that busl-
ness with her son, the deserved sue
cess which is second only to the credit
for writing the songs.
The routine business was conducted
as usual before the evening program.
At a previous meeting Of the Club
n request had been received from the
State Federation that the Penns Grove
Woman's Club write to Senators
and Poprcs entatives in Congress a5L
ing for the protection Of the 10000
Armcnians in Celicia, France, on be
half Of the Allied and associated pow
ers. accepted the responsibility for
this area. ,
should the French army he removed
nov and no means secured by the a..
lied powers to protect these Armepi-
ans they arc in grave danger of the
Turks.
Both of u political parties have
pledged themselves to help, and are
now in a position to fulfill these
pledges. Consequently Senators Edge
and Frelinghuysen and Representative
Patterson were written to.
Letters were read from Senators
Edge and Frelinghuysen saying that
the Armenian question was receiving
consideration and they would be pro-
tected in every possible yav.
This meeting being the musical
number on the Ca1andar the meeting
was turned over to the Musical Com
mittee.
