alist, are ready for distribution to

contestants plant by Extension Poul-
try Specialist, and toward the end Of
the year a personal letter win be sent
to each contestant summarizing and
suggesting possible practices which
will improve existing conditions.
The only requirement asked in Civ
ing this calendar and service is that it

SOMERS POINT
ELECTION HOT
Democratic Candidates Will In
wade Resort on November LIST
For Big Meeting.
CONTEST FOR CITY CLERK

With the approach of the General
Election events are shaping up az
Somers Point for a hot contest be-
tween several candidates. Following
upon the Primary Election battle be
tween the forces pledged to Mayor
Charles E. G. Steelman, as a candidate
for reelection, and George Coll for
Mayor, the Democrats of the County
are to invade the Point on Thursday
evening, November LIST, for a big mass
meeting in the interest of the candi-
dates on their ticket.
The meeting is to be held in the
Volunteer Fire House, and the speak
ers will include State Committeeman
Charles j. Collins, County Chairman
Charles Lafferty, Robert L. Warke.
Jr., Adolph C. Collier, Charles M. Kes-
Ter, William l.. Risley, DR.. Edwin NJ.
We'll, Charles c. Frazier and other
prominent Democrats.
Allen L. Tallman, a member of the
County Board of Freeholders for many
years, until his defeat recently, is the
Democratic candidate for Mayor. ag-
ainst Coll. While efforts will be made
to elect him, it is believed that Coll
will pull through with a good major
ity.
Another interesting fight is between
the present City Clerk, James E.
Scull, who has held this Office for
about eighteen years, and James G..
Scull, a prominent Democrat of the
County, son of the late Judge Joseph
Scull and brother of Martin V. B.
Scull.
Still another interesting contest is
between John Alliger, Republican City
Assessor of the First Ward, who was
the only antioch candidate nominal
ed at the Primaries, and Edward
Miers, Democrat. Alliger has always
been a strong man 1t election, and it
is believed he will defeat his Demo
cratic opponent this year. The Second
Ward has nominated John Moran on
the Republican ticket for City Asses
sor, and he is opposed by George
Hayes, Democrat.
For City Council, the Republicans
have nominated Charles Wolf from
the First Ward. and John Eisemann
from the Second. Frank Stretch viii
oppose Wolf IN the First Ward, while
Eisemann's election is certain, as NO
one has been nominated to oppose
him. Both Republican candidates are
on the Coll ticket.
For city treasurer, Henry Weigand
is the candidate on the Republican
states, while Francis Hart has been
nominated by the Democrats. Wei
gand was president of city council
last veal and is a member of the Coll
ticket.
A. Y. Dare, for a number of years
tax collector, was nominated by the
Republicans for reelection. He will
be opposed by William H. Collins, son
of Charles Collins, who was nominated
by the Democrats.

SECTION WARDENS
FOR FIRE SERVICE
Raymond Krewson Named for
Local Territory-Four Other
County Appointments.
BETTER RESULTS EXPECTED

Raymond Krewson, of this city, has
been appointed a section fire warden
for this district by the State Board of
Conservation and Development, which
has reorganized the states forest fire
service, dividing the three existing ma
jor divisions into Twenty-Five smaller
districts. Each of these sections will
be under the direct supervision and
control of one of the new section war
dens.
Other appointments for Atlantic
County are Maurice F. Aaron, Mizpah;
John Thornburg and James o. Hazard,
Hammonton; Joseph G. Brown, Port
Republic.
The new officials will work under
the immediate supervision and control
of the Division Firewarden in charge
of the Division in which their section
is located. 1t will be the duty of the
Section Firewardens to be personally
responsible for putting out all forest
fires, to organize their sections for fire
prevention purposes, to investigate the
cause and fix the responsibility for
each fire. In addition they will be
charged with seeing that the fire per
nit law is rigidly enforced and will
have immediate charge of the town
ship firewardens within their sections.
The present force of over $50 town
ship firewardens will be continued un-
der the new plan. 1t is believed that
as a result of the closer supervision
exercised by the section firewar
dens, their work will be rendered
much. more satisfactory and efficient.
The sections have been laid out or
a strictly tactical basis. Political boun
daries such as county or township
lines have been disregarded and in
stead, existing natural fre-breaks sucf
as streams, swamps, broad roads and
clearings have been employed. BY this
method, which marks a radical depart
ure from all previous methods of for
est fire control in New Jersey, each
area will have its separate and dis
trict fire problem and the section war
den in charge a clear cut and indiyid
ual responsibility. At the same time
full opportunity will be afforded fol
the greatest measure of efficient coop
Grafton.
