Coytesville "Fence-Busters"
To Play Grantwood A. c.

Gerald Certify of Grantwood won
another game for the Coytesville
fence-busters on Sunday when he held
the hard hitting Riversides to seven
hits, besides tanning eleven batsmen.
This was the seventh straight victory
for the local boy and the ninth con-
secutive win for his team. Gerry"
has yet to be defeated this season.
A feature of the game were the two
Ruthian clouts of Bill" Tierney of
the Coytesville team.
Rivalry galore is in store for the
fans when the Coytesyille squad
travels to the Grantwood Fairgrounds
on August and crosses bats with the
Grantwood A. c. Both teams are play
ing sensational and snappy ball, beat
ing many of the big city teams and
the best in this section. More about
this "big" game will be published in
these columns. Added interest is had
for the visiting battery will be home
men, Certify and Anderson.

Fort Lee Athletic Club

The Fort Lee Athletic Club re-
mained inactive over the weekend
because of the non-apearance of the
Union Field Club nine Of Lodi. An
automobile accident in which several
of the Lodi team sustained injuries
necessitated the cancellation of the
contest.
Fort Lee today ranks third among
teams in the North Jersey League
mainly because of its Indifferent play
ing during the opening of the current
ball season.
Now, however, things have under
gone a complete metamorphosis. A
new playing spirit has been instilled
into the local outfit by Manager Bob"
Fleidel, who has kept his team in the
thick of the pennant fight despite dis
couraging incidents.
Fort Lee fans wax optimistic about
the Fleidelmen's chances to finish at
the top of the ladder when the season
ends.
Additional strength has been rem
dered the team with the acquisition
of two classy ball players-Ed Maron,
third baseman, and Ebbling, center
fielder and relief twirler. Both play
ers in recent games exhibited as good
brand of playing as seen in quite
some time on Bergen county sandlots
incidentally, when the local club
and the team representing Norwood
in the league clash this Sunday,
hectic battle is sure to ensue as both
are making gallant fight for league
honors.
The game will get underway prompt
ly at $3.50 p. m. ON the A. c. diamond.

As to the time necessary for get,

providing that the people vote for the

In case the election carries a great
deal of money will be spent in that
section for labor. Mr.. Cavendar says
that there appears to be little oppo-
sition from the people whose lands
would be submerged by the irrigation
lake. They all are willing to take a
fair price for their land and assist
the project in becoming reality. The
lake will cover approximately 1000
acres and will be an average depth of
60 feet. This will irrigate about 40.
900 acres, the boosters for the project
assert.

OLD GUADALUPE

HARNESSED
Midwest Utilities Pushing
Power improvements
at Gonzales. ,,s

GONZALES, Tex, Sept. 26.-Ex
tensive improvements and expansion
of the Gonzales Water Light anC
Power Company now well under wa,
entailing an expenditure of over 1925,
900 will render the Gonzales plant II,
finest and best equipped in Southwest
Texas when completed in the mex
several months.
The local plants recently taken ovel
by the Midwest Utilities Company i,
one Of the units formerly belonging Il
the Morrison-McCall interests and the
program of expansion now beihl
pushed is in line with plans formulate
ed some time ago by the retiring COM
pany.
REBUILD DAM.
Among the big things being accom-.
plished here is the rebuilding Of the
dam across the Guadalupe river in
creasing the present horsepower from
600 to 1900 and the building of a new
power house that will cost $125,000
alone. A high power transmission line
will connect Gonzales and Cuero, the
power plant at the latter place being
alSO uulL Ol inc uDllC CllillleS sys-
TEN.
The water works system will also be
enlarged and improved with the lay
ing of larger mains and the addition
of over so new fire hydrantS. During
the coming winter the ice plant which
has also been bought up by the Mid
west interests will be enlarged and i'm.
proved, increasing it to a Bottom ca
pacity plant.
POWER is HARNESSED.
As for the power plant, the only
other one in this section of the state
equalling it in horse power will be the
Victoria plant, another unit of the
same system.
With its superb location on the
Guadalupe, river that far and away
leads all streams in potential water
power. maintaining a minimum flow
of 400 cubic feet per second from
New Braunfels to the Gulf, Gonzales
and this immediate section possess a
wealth of undeveloped power for all
manner of industries. The river here
has a fall of 20 feet per half mile
and there are a half dozen or more
excellent sites for power plants locat-
ed within several miles of here.
The possibilities of the Guadalupe
are just commencing to attract atten-
ton in the industrial world, although
its splendid assets have long been
known in the field of engineering.

Insurance from a standpoint of its
service to humanity is the greatest in
stitution in the world today.
There is no individual or institu-
ton that comes into contact with it
that it does not benefit. This is true
from the largest stakeholder ina stock
insurance company down to the most
obscure creditor whose debt is paid
out of the proceeds of an insurance
policy matured by death or by the
destruction or loss of property, wheth-
er it be by act of God or decd of
man. In its many applications can
be found one or more to supply al
most his every need. 1t is the pro-
tecting wall that "a forehanded man
builds between his family and his
business on the one hand and on the
other, the vicissitudes Of life which
no one can foresee but which we all
know come TO everyone.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-09-27
FEELING OF SECURITY.

Last, but not least important, is
the fact that every person who pos
sesses an insurance policy is in some
degree a capitalist. However sorely
he may be tried, however complete his
failure and defeat, as long as he can
pay by whatever means the premiums
on his life insurance he is happy in
the knowledge that those who are
near and dear to him will not go who'll
ly unprovided for at his death. \
policy of life insurance gives a feeling
of security to countless thousands of
men lacking the acquisitive instinct
that nothing else could give because
they are without power TO accumulate
wealth in any other way. This in

business on the one hand and on the
other, the vicissitudes Of life which
no one can foresee but which VIC all
know come to everyone.
INSURANCE VALUE.
When considering the value of in
surance, it has many aspects. We
are prone to consider it from the
standpoint of the individual or fam
lily which suffers bereavement of a
protector and provder or loss of val
liable property, or perhaps from the
viewpoint of one who has lost earn
ing capacity through impairment of
health or bodily injury. To the aver
age individual this aspect is of great
est importance. Considered as an in
stitution, however, and regarded from
the viewpoint of organized society. in
surance has an economic, financial
and social value.
Its economic value lies in the accu-
mutation Of wealth by thrift and the
application of this wealth to the build
ing and operation Of great business
enterprises. The accumulation of
wealth represented by the reserves of
life insurance companies is redistrib-
uted for the worlds benefit in financ-
ing great industrial undertakings
through the purchase Of stocks and
bonds. Again, the average daily de-
post of money paid for insurance
premiums during the time between
which the premium is collected and
the time the accumulated reserves can
be invested in securities is stIpendous.
IMPORTANT SERVICE.
This money flows into the arteries
of commerce and trade and back into
the banks again, thus performing an
important service in carrying on the
business of the country. Another i'm
pOrtant service performed by the
wealth accumulated in the form of
insurance reserves lies in the vast
amount of real estate loans made by
insurance companies. Many a pros
porous farm exists today because OF
insurance money borrowed to develop
it. Thousands of homes built by in.
surance reserves shelter happy fami-
lies, while in many cities handsome Of
flee buildings have been erected by
the funds of insurance companies.
Insurance also serves the philan-
thropist. 1t has provided a way for
men actuated by generous motives to
endOw universities, colleges, schools,
churches, charitable and benevolent in
situations, and so contributes to the
promotion of education, religion and
organized charity and hence moral
ity.

Rid Of Fleas


HERE is the treatment to get
III rid Of fleas, advised by
Doctor Louis Gershenfeld in
Hygeia. It concerns small
ice.cream plant. The main floor
of the plant was of cement con-
struetion. 1t was infested with
fleas. Since the ice-cream max
ing machinery was on this floor,
fumigation and insecticides, most
Of which possess strong odors,
could not be used. The entire
1Ioor was covered with d mixture
OF sea salt and sawdust. Water
was then applied. This was al
lowed to remain on the floor over
night. The operation was re-
peated after an interval of five
days. The fleas We're killed by
this treatment.
