MRS. EDWARD PAXSON DE-
LIGHTS LARGE AUDIENCE

Due to shortage of space last
week, only brief announcement
was given an unusually successful
musical event of the season under
the auspices of the Women's Club,
of New Hope. The occasion was a
lecture-recital on Chopin by Mrs.
Edward Paxson in the parlor of the
Methodist Church November 18th.
Mrs. Paxson has long been known
in this community as a musician of
rare ability, and the opportunity of
hearing her play her favorite com
poser for an entire program was
eagerly welcomed. Her audience was
charmed by her artistic and sym
pathetic rendition. Her program in
cluded Chopin's "Waltz, "Nocturn, "
Ballads" "Polanaise," "Impromp-
tu," and even the great Scherzo in
C Minor. Also the Sonata in B flat
Minor.
Her numbers were inuerspersed
by explanations of their signifi-
canoe. The chief charm of her work
is her sympathetic appreciation of
Chopins beauty-loving mind which
she portrays SO clearly by her bril-
liant and delicate touch. Her lect-
ure, explaining and simplifying the
music, was an education within it
self. A brief survey of Chopin's
life was given, showing how vivid
ly he stood out against the sad
background of his unfortunate Po-
land.

Why Not Stop This?

Lambertville-During the noon
hour last Wednesday freight train
was kept standing across the cross
ing at Bridge street for over fifteen
minutes. During that time traffic
was completely stopped. Cars and
trucks were lined up from the cross
ing nearly to Main street. and on
the other side almost to the center
of the river bridge.
Autoists horns made a din of pro-
test, but the train crew arrogantly
ignored them and their protests.
There is no city ordinance forbidding
this stoppage of traffic Why not i?
There is a state law, however, max
ing it a misdemeanor for traffic to
be held up by a train for more than
seven minutes. Why isn't it en-
forced?
In Trenton there is an ordinance
whereby each member of a train
crew is fined IS for obstructing
traffic over a prescribed time. They
don't do it often. But if such an
ordinance were in effect and enforc-
ed in Lambertville, enough fines
could be collected to build new
high school.
WHY DON'T THE CITY COM
MISSIONERS STOP THIS?

of any one crop would not eliminate
all his profits.
C. Allen Knight, Edward Kinsey
and G. j. Roller agreed that the
elimination of poor cows willincrease
the income and decrease the labor

Wheat should not be sold, but

the combined opinion of John J. Ma

been both interesting and instructive

CIVILIZATION OWES DEBT
TO GOOD ROADS
Law and Order Always Follows the
Broad Highway.

That civilization owes great debt
to the highway builders can be UNI
derstood by reference TO history.
The first European highways were
those that went out from Rome,
that the Roman soldier might have
easy and quick access to the remot-
est bounds Of his great empire. With
him went law and order. Later,
over these highways, went the
school master and the college, the
education, the institution and its
teachers. The missionary of the
Cross used the highway, the church
spread it's doctrine over the high
way, and to this day the great
churches, schools, colleges, hospitals,
and institutions for the amelioration
Of the condition Of mankind are
found always on, never away from,
great highways.
1t is the highway which made the
city, not the city the highway. 1t is
the highway which made the demand
for the railroad, which is but steel
highway for cars of steel. 1t is the
highway over which all freight must
move sometime, the highway over
which must travel all that is good,
noble, desirable in life.
Where good highways are, there is
good civilization. Where are poor
highways, are usually ignorance
poverty, disease, lawlessness, lack
Of culture, poor standards of living
misery.
Investment in highways means in.
vestment in civilization

SUCCESSFUL REVIVAL AT
BAPTIST CHURCH CLOSES

The series of revival meetings held
in the First Baptist Church Of Lam
bertville the past ten days came to
a successful close after many spir-
tied sessions.
Rev. Sidney w. Powell, of Newark,
but at one time preaching at the
Frenehtown church, conducted these
services, and there was constant
ly increasing attendance each eve
ming.
Mr.. and Mrs. Max r. Hoener, Of
Newark, led the musical part of the
services.
Meetings were held in various To-
cal industrial plants, both in this
city and in New Hope.
A big netting was held last Sat
urday evening, an innovation never
before tried here during revival.
1t was predicted that few if any
people would turn out on that eve
ming Of the week, but the attendance
excelled that at any preceding meet
ing.

The paving Of Main Street, from
the northerly to the southerly Dor
ough line Of New Hope, was COM
pleted Wednesday, and the cleaning
up Of the cutters will be finished
tomorrow.
The work was begun in August,
and would have been completed at
an earlier date except for the diff
Guilty in securing stone fast enough
for the work.
The total length of the ugite-
stone roadway is about one and a
quarter miles, extending from the
upper end of Delaware Grove to a
point south of the Union Mills. The
work was under the direction of
Earl Lucas, representing the Penn
sylvania State Highway Depart
ment, and nine-tenths Of the cost
was paid by the state, and one-tenth
by New Hope borough.
The completion Of the Main street
work puts practically all New Hope
streets--or especially in the built-up
portion Of the town--in first-class
condition. The main thoroughfares
north and south, and east and west
are first-class, and of the secondary
streets-Ferry, Mechanic and New

condition,

A PRECEDENT In BENEVOLENCE
FOR CHARITABLE REQUESTS
LamberfvHe Would Have Had Hospital Long
Ago If This Method Had Been Employed
BY Edgar T. Phillips During Lifetime.


Last week lot of newspaper
space was given to the account of
a large gift made by Milton S. Her.
shey, chocolate king, to the Hershey
Industrial School, at Hershey, Pa.
The contribution amounts to sixty
million dollars. Everyone has eat
en- Hershey's Chocolate Bars--that's
where the money came from.
Speaking of his gift, Mr. Hershey
said: II was born poor and realize
the hardships many of the boys of
today must endure to attain success.
1t was not my intention in estab-
fishing the institution to insure a
soft snap for anybody, but to as
sist boys in poor circumstances to
learn a trade and become self-sup-
porting"
And Mr.. Hershey is very wise.
By making his gift before he dies
he is assured of the money being
used for the purpose he intends. As
a trustee of the fund he can determ-
inc the policy by which it is invest
ed. There is no possibility of liti-
cations and delays after his DEATH
there can be no misinterpretation of

! out that if this We're true, then
written statements should be pre-
scented from these manufacturers to
the effect that all other things being
equal, they would guarantee to build
continued. MIR. Ulmer said he would
there if navigation were not dis
secure such statements.
Seen later by representative of
this paper, Mr.. Timer was question
ed as to the identity of the people
who proposed building on the Bar
Der farm. He said there was a
silk mill that would employ 500 men.
But he couldn't remember the name
of the company. He also said there
was brick company who wanted
to start a plant there But he
couldn't remember their names,
either. However he named the
"Chief Monk Iron Manufacturing
Co." as one of the prospective
builders.
William Fields proposed that a
drawbridge be erected so that navi-
cation would not be INSTRUCTED 1t
was pointed out that such a bridge
could not be made of full street
width-which is badly needed to al
ioN bne pdSSdge OF JfdIIlc.
Mayor Moonan questioned Mr..
Person the canal representative, as
to the possibility of disseminating
the force of men here if the concrete
bridge is built. He replied that the
same force would be retained, say
ing that they would still be neces-
sary for the upkeep of the canal
property and for feeding water thru
to the Delaware & Raritn Canal.
Attorney Horace G. Prall was
present in the interest of the Candy
Paper Mills, and said that the only
demand his clients make is that suf-
ficient water be supplied their plant.
Mayor Moonan replied that this was
a matter of guarantee between the
Canal Company and the Water Pow
err Company, and that such con-
tract would still have to be contin-
ued. Mr.. Person said that the pro
posed concrete structure would in
no way obstruct the flow of water
thru the canal He pointed ont
that the very fact that the canal is
feeder to the Delaware & Raritan
makes it constantly necessary to
maintain the proper flow of water
thru it.
1t was announced that future,
and possibly a final. hearing would
be held in the near future.

LAMBERTYILLE COMMISSIONERS
HEAR WATERWAY ARGUMENTS
A. J. Uimer Claims That Barber Farm You'd
Be Damaged 100000 BY the Stopping of
Navigation on Canal Through City.


The special hearing called last
Friday night by the Lambertville
City Commissioners on the proposed
new concrete bridge at the railroad
station was adjourned until some
future date. No definite decision
was reached on the proposition of
disseminating navigation on the
canal in the city limits so as to
enable a permanent concrete bridge
of street width to be built.
Complaint had been previously
made that the Barber farm. lying
partly in the city limits on the north
side, had provision in its deed by
which the canal property would
revert to the farm if navigation was
ever discontinued. A. J. Ulmer ,oc-
cupant of the farm, was present as
agent for the owners. He presented
typewriter copy of the deed, pur-
ported to have been written in 1894,
containing this clause. But ]. C.
Person, representative of the Canal
Company was present with the orig
inal deed, and also certified copy
of the deed from the County Clerk S
office. There was no reference
whatever in the original and certi-
fled copy as to the provision where
by the canal property would revert
to the farm in case of discontinued
navigation.
Attention was called by Commits
sioner Malloy to the wording of the
clause in the typewriter copy pre-
scented by Mr.. Ulmer. 1t read "If
navigation ceases on said canal feed
er, said lands shall be REVERSED
TO the owner of said heirs of the
same Mr.. Malloy questioned the
word reversed" as legal term
used in this connection. The word
revert" would be the correct term.
1t was also question as to the
typewriter copy being genuine. 80
Years ago there were very few type
writers being used, and as the origi-
nal deed was hand-written, it was
pointed out that this copy must
have been made at much later
date.
Mr.. Ulmer claimed that he would
suffer a loss of 100000 if naviga-
ton were discontinued, and wanted
to know who would pay this loss.
When questioned as to how he would
lose the money, he replied that he
had given options to manufacturers
who wanted to build there and use
the canal. Gordon Cooper pointed

NEW HOPES MAIN STREET PAYING
COMPLETED AT COST OF $4,000

Main street has been improved at
various times in the past by appli-
cations of crushed stone, at the bor-
ough's expense, and has had several
oilings, but traffic kept wearing 1t
out until it was especially bad the
past summer, when the new pave
ment was decided upon.
The total cost of the new work
is about $4,000, and it is generally
believed that the town and state
have gotten the worth Of their
monies.
It is claimed that the ugite-stone
construction employed in New Hope
is the next thing to concrete in sub
stantiability, the ugite forming a
binding and sealing surface like an
enamel.
The River Road, both north an6
south Of New Hope is in good con-
dition, and free from dust the sur
face having been thoroughly oiled
sometime ago.
Local people on both sides of the
Delaware are now using the River
Road extensively nice Sunday after
Moons for "joy riding" it being the
most picturesque highway in either
Bucks or Hunterdon counties--and
better than many Of them,

CINE was christened by Miss Alice
Ledger. Addresses were made by

Elmer Robertson and Raymond b..

acted as master of ceremonies in
the absence of Mayor Theodore S.

his intentions. Also a large per-
eentage of the fund is saved by not
being subject to an inheritance tax.
CONTRAST TO PHILLIPS ME-
MORTAL HOSPITAL FUND
When Edgar T. Phillips died four
years ago he left fund, estimated
at between $4,000 and $4,000,
for the institution of a hospital in
Lambertville. There is no question
as to Mr.. Phillips sincerity in want
ing this hospital provided. But four
years have passed and the object
has not been achieved.
If Mr.. Phillips had built the hos
pital before he died, there could
have been no argument about his
intentions. This could have been
done without depriving himself of
the funds necessary for his liveli-
hood. Mortgages could have been
placed on the property, or notes
could have secured payments from
his estate after his death.
Mr.. Hershey has set precedent
which will appeal to all thinking
people who have funds with which
they intend to devote to the better
ment of the world.
