Johnny Chuck Hears Good
News.
The only news at sll worth hearing
Is Of 4 nature thai is cheering.

Johnny Chuck sat on his doorstep
as out of sorts as a Chuck could be.
He had come out for the first time
since going to sleep the fall before.
He hadn't wanted TO come out. He
hadn't wanted to be awakened, and
SO he wouldn't, he just wouldn't, let
any of the joy of the spring into his
heart He complained that he had
been awakened too soon
Now the truth of the matter is that
Johnny had slept longer than usual.
Perhaps IT was because his bedroom
had been deeper in the ground than
usual. Anyway, Johnny Chuck was
late in making his appearance. He
didn't know il. Perhaps he wouldn't
have grumbled and growled 50 much
and been so grouchy had he known
it. One trouble with Johnny vas that
he was sure he would be unable to
fnd anything to eat. This had al
ways been true other springs when

The weekly Democratic meeting was
Aneld Thursday evening in the Club
room. D. w. Beckley ,of Salem, was
the leading speaker. He dwelt princi-
paffy upon the extravagant bills of
w. 4. Mifflin when Sheriff and the eX-
travagant expense of the County En-
gineelss office, much of which was ap-
proved by ]. Gilbert Borton while a
member of the Board of Freeholders.
Frank j. O'Connor said he had been
Democrat all his life but for years
it was almost ostracism to announce
such in Penns Grove or Carneys Point.
There was chaos at the end of the
World War and the people wanted
change. They now see that another
change is needed. He said that the
Democratic party was the instigator of
all labor laws.
William Underwood, negro, said
that his experience with Mayor r. w.
Kidd, Councilman Jere H. Long and
Leon Robbins, candidates on the DEM

OLD RESIDENTS
TAKE NEW HOMES

The removal of one brick from the
pile seems to have put several others
in motion, Judging from the resident
ial changes in the Borough which
either have or are about to take place.
Mrs. Mary Diver, who has been
living at 10 Naylor Avenue for the
past few years, moved to 1911 Arch
Street, Philadelphia, on Wednesday.
On Thursday, John Black moved from
South Broad Street, into the house
vacated by Mrs. Diver.
George Ziesel, who recently purch-
ased the double house on South Broad
Street at the head of Beach Ave and
which has been vacated by Mr.. John
Black, will move therein during the
next few days.
But the change which is causing the
greatest exclamation is that of
"Cranehurst" from 81 West Main
Street, where it has been for fifty
years and housing two generations,
to go West Main Street, which is being
vacated by Mr. Ziesel.
Mrs. Cecilia Burke, who has been
a resident of Penns Grove and Carneys
Point for twenty years, has moved to
Philadelphia, so that she may be with
her children who have employment
there.

High School Meets
First Defeat
Forward Pass And Muddy Field
Prove Fatal To
Yearlings

Bridgeton High School defeated
Penns Grove High School by score
of 13 to 6, at Bridgeton, last Friday.
1t was day for ducking and not for
football, as the Penns Grove boys
found out, for it rained during the
whole game and the field was one
mass of mud and water. Although
the home town boys met defeat it was
not because of poor football, for the
Penns Grove boys actually outplayed
Bridgeton and should have brought
home a victory instead of a defeat
The reason of losing the game was
due to not keeping their eyes open,
as Bridgeton made both of her touch
downs by side-line forward passes,
which caught the Penns Grove team
off their guard. Penns Grove High
earned her touchdown by carrying the
ball up the field and over the goal by
repeated line plunges and end runs.
Remsburg carried the pigskin over
for Penns Grove, while Loper made
both of Bridgeton's touchdowns.
1t seemed that other things besides
the weather was against the game
Friday, for when the boys had played
for 18 minutes without time being
called for the first quarter, an inves-
tigation started and it was found that
through some mistake there had been
no timekeeper appointed, so after
some discussion between the two cap
tains and the referee and umpire, it
was decided to play four minutes
longer and call it a half and Penns
Grove should have the wind all the
second half. This satisfied everybody.
During the first half, after Bridge
ton kicked off to Penns Grove, it look
ed as if Bridgeton was easy, for Penns
Grove worked straight down the field
to their Is yard line. Then Bridgeton
made substitution and held Penns
Grove forcing them to kick. But
Penns Grove High was not the only one
was held, for they gave the same med
icine back to Bridgeton, making them
kick also. Penns Grove after receiving
the ball lost it on tumble and in the
second play Bridgeton worked the pass
that gave them their first touchdown.
During the rest of the half, altho
Penns Grove held the ball most of the
time in the enemies territory, either
through penalties or blocked plays,
were not able to score.
The second half was a tight battle
between the two teams, who for a
period seemed equal in ability, neither
gaining much ground. Then Penns
Grove seemed to take new life and
threw a scare into Bridgeton by
carrying the ball to their Is yard line,
but lost it on pass intercepted by
Keller. Then Bridgeton lost the ball
Immediately by a tumble and, with
do or die spirit, Penns Grove car
ried it up the field while the best
Bridgeton had could not stop them.
They worked Bouvier and Price for
end runs and Remsburg for two con-
secutive line plunges and the second
time he took it over for Penns Groves
touchdown. Then came the critical
moment, for with the teams so evenly
matched, the score standing to 6,
