Building Nesc
POWer Line
From Holland To Lambertville Along
The Delaware River

Assurances of an additional means
of electric supply for Lambertville,
Pennington and adjacent commun-
tiles, providing amply for future
growth as well as present needs of
this territory, is contained in an
announcement by The New Jersey
Power & Light Company that a
new transmission line will be built
at once to Lambertville from Hol-
land, N. J., and Glendon, Pa, a
suburb of the city of Easton.
Orders have been placed by .he
company for materials needed for
the line, whose total cost is es-
timated at $4,000. Construction is
scheduled to start as the necessary
materials are delivered, the procur-
ing of the right-of-way being in
progress now The section from Hol-
land to Lambertville will be erected
first, followed by the Holland-G Glen
don connection.
The new line is routed as direct
as possible from two sources of
power supply-Glendon and Holland.
Glendon is an important sub-sta-
tion on the Pennsylvania-New Jer-
sey Super Power System, which in
eludes The New Jersey Power &
Light Company. Fed either from the
nearby Easton generating station or
by 1l0,000-volt super power lines
from large power stations at Read
ing, Pa, and on the Susquehanna
River near Harrisburg, the Glendon
sub-station is a switching point from
which power will be dispatched to
the Pennington terri
tory when the new line is completed.
This line also will provide a direct
connection with Holland, where a new
100000 k. W. base-load station is
planned.
From Holland the new line will
cross the Delaware River into Penn
sylvania, recrossing into New Jer-
sey at Frenchtow,n with whose sub
station it will be connected, and pro-
ceeding to Lambertville. Here it will
join the present transmission line
running into Lambertville through
Ringoes, Pennington and Lebanon,
thus forming loop" which should
assure these towns of continuous ser
vice under almost any circumstances.
At present the main power supply
of Lambertville and Pennington is
the transmission line from Lebanon,
where it is fed either by connect
ing line from the Dover Easton line
near Washington, or from the Dow
er power station via Bernardsville.
When the new line is finished, Lam
bertville and Pennington will not be
isolated if the line breaks between
Lebanon and Pennington, as was the
case last spring when the south
branch of the Raritan overflowed its
banks and washed away section
of the line. The new line, which
is scheduled to be in operation before
next Springs freshets are due, will
make Lambertville and Flemington
independent of such accidents by
providing service from another di-
rection.
These towns also have third
source of supply in the Connection
made by The New Jersey Power &
Light Company early this year at
New Hope, Pa, with the Philadel-
phia Suburban Gas & Electric sys-
tenn, which is capable of supplying
limited service in case of emergency.

Race Track For
Bucks County
Speedway Corporation of PhiIadel-
phia Buys LaughOrne Site


Langhorne, about eighteen miles
from New Hope and Lambertville,
is to have the finest dustless race
course in the United States when
the Speedway Corporation finishes
the huge auto speedway there, Neg
citations were completed last week
for the purchase of ninety-six acres
including the Joseph ]. Edgertcn
and Andrew Hibbs farms along the
Lincoln Highway at Langhorne.
The race course is to be in the
shape of huge bowl 100 feet wide
and mile long. Two wide tunnels
are to be constructed beneath the
race course into the bowl so that
autos can be parked in the field in
the centre, according to reports. A
grandstand 200 feet wide and 1900
feet long will be built to accom-
modate 10000 spectators. This will
be on the west side of the field.
Protecting the spectators against
hurtling cars il accidents should oc-
cur, there will be hub rail fence
constructed around the outside of
the track. This will be constructed
of . inch timbers bolted to 6-inch
posts and bound by iron bands on
the curve. 1t is reported that work
will be started Immediately so that
races can be held there ON Decora-
tion Day next year. e
The site was chosen because of it,
proximity to large cities and easy
access to and from them over the
system of highways in the section
1t is anticipated that it will bring
some of the most famous racers Of
the world to its contests. and that
in a short time it will vie with the
Indianapolis speedway for thrilling
speed events.

LONE SCOUTS SOON TO Or
CAME TRIBE IN TRENTON
Scouts of Lambertville. New Hope,
and Vicinity Urged to Join

The Lone Scouts of America, a
division of the Boy Scouts of Amer
lea, is for boys everywhere. 1t was
originated by Mr.. w. d. Boyce, (for-
merly Chief Totem of the Lone
Scouts) who started the Boy Scout
Movement in the United States.
The following is an extract from
the Chicago Journal issue of Febru-
ary 6, 1920:
Chicago is the cradle of the Boy
Scout and Lone Scout movement in
this country, w. d. Boyce first
brought the Scout plane to the at
tention of America"
In 1909, Mr.. Boyce, while travelling
in England, found himself lost in
London and he stopped small boy
on the street to make inquiries. Re-
ceiving the desired information, he
offered the youth a tip. "No sir"
the boy refused. "I'm a Scout. Can't
take money for doing Good Turn
you know. Mr.. Boyce did not know
but he investigated. 1t is due to
him that we have the Scout move
ment today in America.
The Lone Scout division of the
Boy Scouts of Trenton, are CON
sidering the forming of tribe in
Trenton, Due to the fact that there
are many Scouts in small towns and
villages, which are too small to
have standard Scout tribe, it is
for those boys that the Lone Boy
Scouts of Mercer -Hunterdon Coun-
ties are about to organize such
tribe.
All Lone Scouts of Mercer County,
and of fifty mile vicinity of Tren-
ton, are urged to report at once, by
mail or in person, to the Boy Scout
Headquarters, at 214 East State
Street, Trenton, N. J. Scouts that
have not re-registered, or who have
not answered the annual roll call,
may again reioin, and become ac-
tive Scouts.

morning the thing was positively dull,
at least on the House side of the
show. There was not a debate of
any interest or spirit. Even Mel
lermoe kept still and Stockwell didn't
speak more than a minute or two.
Col. Wilkinson made few pointed
remarks about honesty, that should
have been broadcasted all over the
state, and Otto Neumann and Oscar
Swenson contributed some sharp re-
torts to the debate on some certain
measure. A few caustic things were
said by several members when the
Senate returned the departmental bill
with it's refusal to accede to the House
request for a second conference COM
mittee. Aside from this, the time,
up to about three o'clock in the
morning, was spent, in the House, in
continuous roll calls on unimportant
bills.
"When the deadlock on the depart
mental bill had been lifted and the
conference committees from the two
bodies were meeting in joint session
on the bill, both House and Senate
recessed to wait the report of the
committee.
at was during this recess that the
members of both bodies fell to having
some fun to keep themselves awake
until the committee should report.
This fun consisted of a mock session
and of singing. Nothing which by

Two Cent Gas Tax To
Go Into Effect May l

Unless state officials are enjoined
by court action which does not seem
to be contemplated at this writing
Minnesota residents will pay a tax
of two cents per gallon on gasoline
commencing May LIST.
The legislature which closed Friday
passed the gas tax law few days
ago provides that all gasoline shall
bear a tax of two cents per gallon
but refund will be allowed on gaso-
line consumed other than on the
highways. 1t is good roads tax
only gasoline burned up on the roads
will ultimately contribute.
A gas tax is levied in all but
six or seven states. The law was
passed on account of the fact that
at the last election the voters of
Minnesota by tremendous majority
approved of a constitutional amend
