ANOTHER LIQUOR HAUL MADE
NEAR BEVERLY ON SUNDAY
Epidemic Catching Since Banner
Started Move.

The Willingboro police force have
launched drive against bootleggers
since the notorious capture of the
million dollar gang right under their
noses last Friday. This probably has
caused the local forces to wake up
as it We're
The first, of which is supposed to
be series of cleanups came off
last Sunday afternoon, when Ellis
worth VanSciver officer of Willing
boro Township, swooped down on an
unoccupied shack and discovered
about four gallons of whiskey and
one hundred and fifty gallons of
wine
The constable, like the State Police,
put ON bold front and entered the
cabin unarmed not pistol, shot
gun or even a warrant did he carry
with him into the rendezvous of the
bootlegging gang.
And it so happened that there was
no one at home, which brought a
sigh of relief from VanSciver, and
he, being unaccustomed to handling
such cases as this turned out to be,
called the State Police and Trooper
Kline answered his call for assistance.
The trooper at once seized the
whiskey and told the local cop that
a private individual was allowed 200
gallons of wine for his own use. In
this however he was wrong, for later
in the day detective Arthur Carabine,
of Mount Holly came to the shack
and emptied the wine saying that
where spirits are found all other
liquors are also seized
The shack, which is owned by DR.,
]. c. Stuart, is located on his farm
on the Charleston Road and was loan,
ed to Joseph Stevenson free of rent
for the storage of apples. Joseph
in turn rented the place to Daniel
VanSciver, who occupied the place
at the time the seizure was made, but
unfol tunately, he happened to be abb
sent and no arrests were made.

THE IRON HORST"
A NATIONS TRIUMPH
George o'Brien And AIl-Star Cast In
SouI-Stirring Pioneer Drama.

In the presentation of "The Iron
Horse William Fox gives to the
screen Of the Bever- Lee a masterful
production Of virile subject, mann
moth in its compelling interest, and
handled in such a manner that it
scars to the highest pinnacle of
cinema art. It will be shown one day
only Wednesday, October 18th.
Not a soul within reasonble dis
lance of the Bever-Lee Theatre, so
fortunate as to play this wonderful
film should fail to see it, for it will
leave an unforgettable impression.
From the very first instant it APP
pears on the screen and you see that
great character of great Nation,
Abe Lincoln, loved by the entire
world in memory, giving encourage
ment to the ambition of David
Brandon, senior, the surveyor who
had the heroism to pioneer a path
way tIIOuSll lHt WllueIISSS VI our

attempt That great thought later

put these thoughts into "a vibrant

signing that immortal industrial doc
ument, the authority for the Union
Pacific to wend its way westward and
the Central Pacific Railroad to forge
to the east, where they finally weld
ed together, completing the greatest
commercial highway known to hui
mainly.
The natural attractiveness OF this
picture is so inspiring, one hardly
realizes the love romance spending
its way, it seems 50 much a part of
it all.

HOSPITAL SEEKS
MAINTENANCE FUND
Annual Donation Week Begins Oct.
IL. 500 Patients During Year.

The management of the Burline ton
County Hospital at Mt. Holly again
comes before the people of the
county for funds for the mainten-
ance of the institution during the
coming year and the second full
weep in October, beginning on the
18th, has been set aside for collec-
tions to be made by the good people
of the different towns and commune
ties who have offered themselves for
this service.
In making an appeal for liberal
contributions, the managers feel that
the details of the important place
that the hospital occupies in the
everyday life Of Burlington County
No one will doubt that it is an insti-
tuition giving comfort to citizens
generally; that they feel safer with
such fine place available to take
care of every phase Of sickness
from ordinary ailments considered
hospital cases to the widest emergen-
cy; that the service is never-ending
always being ready with resident
physician and staff Of competent
nurses; that the service is limited
only by the capacity of the hospital
and the equipment provided.
But with all this necessity and
comfort realized, it would seem to
be important that the people who
are going to contribute should know
something Of the work that has been
done during the past year. Six hun
