KramerS Haze A
Novel Stone Gutter

Lambertville-Harry K Kramer
u Son have new and interesting
sand blast stone cutter at their
plant on Franklin and Bridge streets
which is creating considerable COM
ment. The machine is Pangborn
patent, and employs sand as a cut
ting instrument.
Powerful compressors furnish the
power with which the sand is fore
ed thru nozZles in steady, con-
centrated stream which eats its way
thru the hardest marble. Designs are
laid out on the marble, or granite
rs the case may be, with the use of
tough rubber blankets. The outlines
are cut in the blankets which are
stuck to the stone. The nozzle of
the sand blast follows these out
lines, cutting into the stone with
out injuring the surfaces covered
by the rubber blankets.
The stone is placed in cabinet
completely removed from the opera
tor who manipulates the nozzle from
the outside. If the blast should
strike the body it would bore a
hole into the flesh in an instant.
So the greatest care must be exer-
cised in the operation.
This operation is a tremendous
stride from the old method of pains
taking labor and time formerly en-
ployed in cutting stone with chisel
and maui, Kramer & Son are to be
congratulated on this modern i'm
provement.

To Protect
Your Property
Drive To Complete Automatic
Fire Alarm System

Considerable interest is being dis
played in the proposed house to
house canvass to be held on May
18th for the collection of funds to
complete the Fire Alarm System.
A number of citizens have very
favorably expressed their opinions
as to the worthiness of the project
and have pledged both their moral
and financial support. The City
Commissioners are heartily in ac-
cord with the movement and it is
felt that the entire community will
at a glance realize the benefits to
be derived and will enter into the
affair with the usual interest al
ways displayed for worthy causes.
The Fire Department of this city
is one of the biggest and still the
most economical department of the
City and fully deserves the help Of
every resident of the City and a
hugh success is looked for at the
coming canvass.
The Fire alarm system to the al
ready efficient Department is like
the finishing touches to a work OF
Art-the completion of worthy
and commendable organization
prompted, fostered and supported
by civic pride Everyone should &C.
quire just little of that old civic
spirit and firmly resolve to gel
back of the wheel of progress anc
give push that will send this
worthy cause well over the top.

POLITICAL CRAFTERS SEEK TO
DlSCREDIT COOLIDGE ECONOMY
But Taxpayers Are Not To Be Fooled by Vicious
Propaganda Sent From National Capital.

Washington, D. C.,-There is on
foot deliberate and vicious ATTEMPT
to belittle President Coolidge's pro-
gram of economy. There is no doubt
IN the minds of many in Washing
ton that this attempt is being
made not only by political oppon-
ents, but also by some who are
interested to see that the govern
ment shovels out money in expen-
ditures which would result in their
personal gain. This is evidenced by
the heterogeneous collection of ru-
mors, lnneundoes, skilfully thought
out propaganda, infantile imagin-
lngs and double meaning articles
which, with the Washington date
line, is being broadcast throughout
the country. Under the classified
ton of vicious and misleading pro-
paganda one can, by carefully read
ing articles sent out from the ma
tons capital, discern the effort that
is being made to misconstrue the
attitude of the President in the
matter of economy. 1t is extreme
ly doubtful, despite the efforts of
some of the writers of this kind
of matter, that any impression has
been, or will be made upon the
people of the nation. The origina-
tors of this plan have overlooked
one important factor, namely, that
the people of the country have
witnessed material demonstration
OF the benefits of the Presidents
plan to stop the wasting of the
taxpayers money. 1t is not an easy
matter, even for clever propagan-
dists, to fool the people when they
know that the present plan of
stopping wastage has resulted in
the saving of their dollars. 1t must
be recognized that national economy
and the decrease in the expenses of
the government has brought about
a decrease in federal taxes.
President Coolidge's program of
economy, put in plain words, is
this: he is determined to stop the
wastage of government funds, funds
secured by taxes upon the people of
the nation for inconsequential, non
essential, bureaucratic activities
eliminated less money has to be
paid to the government in the form
of taxes. Consequently, it means
more money for the individual to
spend as he or she pleases. The
President intends to stop the wasting

HAROLD BURK

The funeral of Harold Burk, for
mer resident of Lambertville, but
late of Pennington, was held at the
First Baptist Church here yester-
day afternoon at $50 o'clock, with
Rev. Harold M. Dorrell, the pastor,
officiating Short services were held
at the home of his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Burk, in Fleming
ton, at 1.15 Wednesday afternoon.
Interment was in Riverview ceme-
terry under the direction of LaBaw.
It was one Of the largest funerals
ever held in this city, being attended
by a great number of former school
mates as well as other townspeople.
The flowers filled four automobiles.
Mr. Burk died at st. Francis Hos
pital, Trenton. on his twenty second
birthday Sunday. He
had been operated on for appended
tbs, but his condition was so SER
ious that he rallied only for a
short time With his parents he
resided in this city most of his life,
and was an active worker in the
FIRST Baptist Church, and all young
mems religious activities. He was
a teacher in the schools of Union
Hill, N. j., and was making rapid
progress in his profession. Local
ly he was well known, and had a
host of friends. Besides his par
ents, he is survived by one sister,
Miss Dorothy Burk, of Pennington.

DOLLARS TO DOUGHNUTS
HE'S A SOPHOMORE!

Here's communication from a
student in Cumberland University
Lebanon, Tenn. Judging by the way
he spells "debatable,' he is no wis
er in spelling than he is in sociol-
ogy. We copy his letter just as it
is written, and disclaim response
bility for the spelling, punctuation
and grammar. Notice the way he
spells conservative"
Lebanon, Tenn, April 20, 1925
Dear Mr.. Editor;
have been reading your publ
cation on the question of Prohi-
bition, Pro. and Con. l gather from
these items that you have taken an
anti-prohibition stand.
Of course there are many sides
from which to look upon this ques-
ton. For instance, take the cues
ton of light wines and beer both
are products of Nature. In general
it is considered that the creations
of Nature are unreasonable, if US
ed to conservative degree, if this
is not so, the human race would
soon vanish from the earth. But,
we have also to deal with distilled
liquors, products of man. 1t is
recognized fact that these are
menace to society. OF course, you
may say that the same effect may
be obtained from the excessive use
of light wines and beer, but it
must be recognized that there are
certain people who carry all things
to extremes.
Should the entire population of the
United States be deprived, because
of the craving nature of compare
lively few? That is question which
is debateable in the minds of most
people. However that question would
be solved if the people of the Uni
ted States had backbone enough
to support their constitution. Per-
haps the law may be wrong, but
why take the method of boot
Logging to correct it? Two wrongs
have never yet made a right. The
Prohibition Law is part of the
and it is the recognized
duty of every citizen to uphold that
law. But, are they doing it? No,
they say let George do it, l want
this one little drink. What this
country needs is a few more
Georges. 1t needs a liberal supply
of steel rods to replace the rubber
tubes running down the backs of
most people, where a backbone
should be.
Are we going to uphold the con-
stitution or tear it down? It
stands for law and order, and a
citizen who does not respect law
and order is mighty poor speci-
man of man.
Consider well your stand, before
any part of the consti-
tuition.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) ROLLIN H. GORMAN.

of the taxpayers money, and there
certainly has been a great wastage
of the peoples dollars since the be-
ginning of the World War.
President Coolidge is concerned
only with the manner in which
the government spends the tax
payers money; what the individ-
ual man or woman do with their
own wages or income is a matter
that the President considers their
own personal business.
Already this effort to belittle his
work is in evidence. Some of these
stories are feeble attempts to be
witty; other are yelled attempts to
discredit the Presidents determin-
alton to save the taxpayers dol
lars.
There are those who, for purely
selfish personal reasons, would be
delighted to see the Presidents
policy of economy killed--killed in
order that they might put their
hands in the taxpayers pocket and
pull out every dollar therein.
There are some very clever propa-
ganda sending out stories from
Washington One thing is certain,
the President will not be harpooned
by those who now seek to belittle
his economy program, as the public
commonsense already detects the
objective aimed at. The public will
do well to continue to apalyze stor-
les of the before mentioned char
acter so they can draw the con-
clusion as to what particularly
selfish interests are to benefited by
the stopping of an economy pro-
gram. Those back of movements of
this character have not the cour-
age to come out and openly at
tack Calvin Coolidge. They realize
full well that he possesses the re-
spect and esteem of the people; if
the instigators of this class of
propaganda had the sense of an
infant in arms they would realize
that no method of propaganda, no
matter how sugar-coated it may
be, is going to stop the President
from carrying out his plan of stop
ping government wastage. This CON
spiracy will be defeated by the
support of the decent, clean-think-
ing citizens of our land and by
the Presidents unfinching contin-
uation of the program which he
has outlined and is already execu-
ting.
