WORK
ON PAPER MILL
Je'persOn Newsprint Corporation
Making Good Progress on Its
Work Of Rebuilding.
PLAN TWAS BURNED LAST FALL

Lambertville-The Jesperson News
print Corporation now has large
force of men at work rebuilding its
paper mill, which was destroyed by
fire last fall, and expects to have the
plant in operation again early this
summer.
The frame building, erected last
year and badly burned, is being COM
pletely replaced by brick build
ing, which will extend from the ori-
ginal building along the canal, to
South Union Street, and will house
all the paper making machinery,
which was damaged but not destroy
ed by the fire.
A new roof is being placed on the
engine room, the former one being
burned off. The main building along
the canal, used for storage and paper
pulp mixing, was Quilted by the fire,
only the walls remaining This is be-
ing torn down to the same height
as the stock room, which was not ser
ioursly damaged by the fire.
Many thousands of dollars was en-
pended last year in remodeling the
old Perseverance Paper Mill, and for
short time newsprint paper was
produced by this company. A eonsid-
cradle force Of men was employed,
and things were going along in good
shape until fire of unknown origin
destroyed the ono building, and badly
damaged large part of the plant,
entailing loss of more than $4,000
The old Perseverance Mill had n
long and varied career, and for time
prior to its requirement by the Jes-
person people, tissue wrapping and
toilet paper was produced.

SHERIFF ASPlRES TO
FREEH0LDER OFFICE

Lambertville-The political situa-
ton in Hunterdon County has started
to look up" with the definite an
nouncement that Sheriff Arthur w
England is an avowed candidate for
the freeholdership against John j.
Horn, the present incumbent, and
that Mr.. Horn is seeking the opin-
ions of his friends as to the likeli-
hood of being candidate to succeed
himself.
Mr.. England declares that he is in
dependent, and not tool of 'the
gang which no one doubts, even
the gang" His brief but pietur-
esque description of the ladies and
gentlemen who seem likely to oppose
him assuredly will not secure any adj
ditional votes from their set, but it
will tend to solidify him with the
crowd of Independents who don't eere
a whoop what the rest of the crowd
thinks.
1t was alleged last fall that some
members of Sheriff England's
gang declared that one of the cam
didates was too "farmerish" to suit
the society circle that he would be
likely to encounter in the event Of his
election, so they turned him down,
but what his "farmerish" friends in
this city and other parts of the
county thought about the needs of
county seat society was fully empha-
sized on election day, and will not be
forgotten by the present generation
of politicians.
The same crowd is beginning to
roll up its sleeves and spit upon its
many hands, figuratively speaking,
So as to be prepared for the primary
and election days. These folks don't
object TO white collars and other
dude 'fixin's, so long aas the candi-
date is also willing to appear in
overalls and red handkerehiefs if the
situation warrants.
The political prophets say that the
great strength of Sheriff Englands
popularity with the independent vo-
ters lies in his fearlessness, and
widely known dry views.
These same prophets say that
while Freebooter Horn is "a good
fellow" he has the handicap of being
favored by most of the practical poll
ticians of the county, and also of be-
ilg a part of the board which has not
met the expectations Of the Demo
Gratis who kicked their own party out
in order to secure improvement IN
der a Republican administration.
They also claim that many Of the
would-be leaders now, formerly took
more interest in the Democratic can
didates than in the Republican,
when there was no chance for the lat
Ter to win. But times have changed
Trenton Times.

FOREST GROVE CLEARS IT'S
PARSON AGE OF DEBT

Forest Grove-The wiping out of
the debt on the new parsonage of the
Forestville Presbyterian Church was
the occasion of large reception Civ
en- to the Rev. and Mrs. If. o. Conser,
the former of whom is pastor of the
church. 1t was due largely to the
hard work Of Mr., Conser that this
debt was cleaned up, on reception
night, his efforts being especially
made because he expects to leave the
charge in June, and wished TO have
the new edifice free of debt before he
left.

And Jesus went about healing
every sickness and every disease
among the people. The Bible.
Before the time of Jesus, the sick
were left to the crude ministrations
of the household. Bitter herbs were
about the only medicine, and they
did more harm than good, Witchcraft
was resorted to i'll an ignorant ef-
fort to charm AWAY the demons of
disease.
But when Jesus came. he taught
that the care of the sick, the
strengthening and publication of the
human race, was one Of the cardinal
virtues, Since that time men and wo-
men everywhere have advanced in
their understanding of this duty TO
their fellow beings. Hospitals rear
their meciful shelters in every land
And one of the most potent forces
in disqualification is the ministration
of trained nurses. We sometimes take
so many things for granted that we
often fail to stop and give credit to
the AGENCIES Of mercy that surround
tient and hard working nurses. But
when the war came the world sud
denly realized the great debt it owed
her,
angels of Mercy they have been
called. Many wounded soldier with
the fires of pain darting thru his tor
tured body, has blessed them with
gratefulness.
BUT THEY MUST BE TRAINED
And when the call went out for
these noble women to give their min
istrations for the suffering men in
France, it was found there were not
enough to 20 around. There were
thousands of kindly women who
would have GLADLY given their lives
in such noble work, BUT THEY
WERE UNFRAMED
A pains -taking and patient appren-
ticcship must be served before these
noble women become graduate nurses
Their training must be carried on in
hospitals But most hospitals usual
ly have very long waiting list for
those who wish to enter this profess
sion, And their services are constant
Iy in demand by private cases. Doe
tors are constantly handicapped by
not having available nurses for home
cases that cannot be removed to hos
pitals.
PROGRESSIVE HOSPITALS PRO
VIDE FOR THIS TRAINING.
The following instance shows the
rapidly growing provision for the
training of women for the nurses
profession. The General Hospital Of
New Brunswick has built large ad-
dition to thir nurses' home so that
more student nurses can be provided
for. The ever-increasing dmund for
Their SERVICES makes it imperative
that more facilities for training them
be provided For instance, maternity
cases always demand the ministra-
tions of nurse. Right here in Lam

about the social and military system
of the NormanS was the manner In
witch occupations which today we
look upon as of an humble, house
hold nature were exalted into titled
offices.
The answer. of course, is that In
those days each feudal castle, the
social unit Of all who were not tillers
of the soil. was, though single
household a small nation in itself,
largely Independent and owing vassal-
age to counts and kings only as
unit.
Thus the keeper of the family"
purse was in reality the secretary
the household kitchen was the COM
missary general.
The dispenser" or "despencer."
| under the feudal custom Of the Nor
mans, was the officer responsible for
the "buttery" or food warehouse Of
the castle, an Office Of great respon-
sibility In days when sieges were
laid, often not to be lifted for months
or even years.
This title, however, when coupled
with the word "le" (the). as of
course it was. soon became too
clumsy even for the Norman tongue.
many generations before the more
common form of the word was
spencer" or "spenser." There were
many, many castles in medieval Eng
land. Hence there are many Spencer
families today.

Serial Stew.

This dish is sometimes called the
Brunswick stew. 1t can be made in
the kitchen or in the camp. 1t is
composed of almost anything and It
is always good. 1t is renewable and
can be made continuous. Hence the
proper name, social stew.
There can be no hard and fast rules
for preparing this dish. Primarily 1t
was a game stew. Squirrels are best,
rabbits do very well. Any grouse is
good. Beef or veal or chicken will
also dot really is better il made of
stolen chicken, but those who are
particular can buy the chicken If
preferred. Anything at hand Is
usable. 1t is impossible to make
bad camp stew, but the following
directions may be found useful.
Have a good-sized stew kettle A
tin pail will do just as well. or so will
an iron pot. The fire should be steady
and not too hot. Stir the stew so
that il shall not stick to the vessel.
Aluminium makes a good cooking
kettle.
Take of flour a pint, Of butter a
