ST. ANDREWS CHURCH
Rector: Rev. T. J. Bensley, ID ID.

Prayer is the lifting of the heart
and mind to God. Prayer does not
consist merely Of the spoken word,
for many Of our best prayers are
unspoken, our thoughts being in
communion with God. But nowhere
can be pray better than in Gods
House, there where worldly dis
fractions are set apart, and where
the soul can conn.ge freely with
its Creator. So, Auding this holy
season of Lent, the season of pray
err AMI fasting, the Church bids us,
"come ye part and rest awhile"
and in . doing we shall learn the
hiddco T. rs Of God.

ThieveS Hit
LamberfviHe

On Thursday night of last week
someone broke into the cellar of
the Bridge Office and stole lot
of valuable tools beonging to John
Fl. Inner, carpentry foreman for
Brann & Stuart, the contractors who
have been making extensive repairs
to the bridge. Among the tools
stolen was a saw which Mr.. Lin
ner priced very highly. Apart from
it being an expensive saw, Mr..
Inner had brought it over from
Sweden, and thus it had senti-
mental value to him.
On Monday an unknown man Sc
cured a room at the Union House,
and shortly afterward disappeared.
Later it was discovered that he had
rifled the rooms that were un-
locked. One of the guests, a Mr..
Kruce, lost new suit of clothes
and new handbag besides several
other articles.
Lambertville seem to be fertile
field for thieves, for they are seldom
caught.

1000 People See Patriotic Demon
stration To Father of Amer
lean Patriotism

A fitting tribute was paid to the
memory of George Washington Sat-
urday night when nearly a thousand
kiansmen gathered at Washington's
crossing as a celebration to the
great patriots birthday. Fully an
other thousand lined the banks as
spectators while the services were
being held.
Flares distributed along the banks
OF the Delaware gave the scene an
impressive appearance as the white
robed figures did homage to the Rev.
dictionary Leader. Exercises were
first held at the monument on the
Pennsylvania side of the river where
a brief address was made, extollinp
the virtues of Washington's patrio-
tism.
The entire celebration was car
ried out in an orderly and well-man-
aged manner. The entire affair was
free from any features that might
be construed as being Objectionable
to those who are hostile to the
khan. The speaker extolled the life
and character of Washington, urging
his hearers to adhere to those prin-
ciples of government which he adj
vocated and practiced.
Following these exercises three
klansmen embarked in a boat pro-
vided for the purpose, and after
singing America" struck out for
the New Jersey shore. A single
oarsman propelled the boat, and he
proved himself worthy of his metal,
for the waters We're above normal

KHAN HOLDS BIG CELEBRATION
AT WASHINCTONS CROSSING

and the stream was running with a
strong current.
One of the Klansmen carried a
large American flag, and the other
bore an electrically lighted cross
thai CLEANED brilliantly over the
surging waters. In this way the
world was reminded of that her.
ole army which followed Washing
ton on that historic night that pre-
cipitated the Battle of Trenton and
turned the tide for American indie
pendence.
Before the celebration the Klans-
men partook of a chicken supper at
the Titusville Methodist Church, Just
above the crossing. Cars from all
over Mercer and Hunterdon counties
on the Jersey side, and from Bucks
County on the Pennsylvania side,
began gathering at eight o'clock
The gathering was composed of both
men and women, but it is reported
that many of the Klansmen and
Klanswomen present were not robed.
Following the celebration par
ade was formed of over a hundred
cars as they made their way back
thru Trenton to their respective
homes. While passing thru Tren-
ton, those wearing robes barred their
faces in difference to an ordinance
of that city prohibiting masked
parades.
The Trenton State Gazette char
acterized this demonstration as "In
the historic setting provided by that
section of the Delaware Valley in
the immediate vicinity of Washing
tons Crossing, the Klansmen staged
one of the most spectacular of the
many colorful demonstrations CIV
en- by the members of the order in
New Jersey.

$50. REALIZED IN
TENNIS CLUB BENEFIT

The entertainment held last week
in Worthington's Hall, as benefit
for the New Hope Tennis Club,
netted about $50. The club courts
are used by many in the commun-
ity who are not members Of the
club, and as the expense of main
tenance is heavy, this means was
adopted to get cooperation from
the community at large.
The program was provided by
musical numbers, trio composed
Of Mrs. George Shoch, piano; Mrs.
r. C. Magill, violin; and William
Conover, flute. The Newtown Quar-
tette sang, and Thomas r. Hunt
gave series of readings. All the
entertainers contributed their talent,
and they are to be commended for
their public spiritedness. Another
number expected on the program did
not materialize, but all those who
attended felt that they had more
than adequate returns for the
price of their tickets.

You know thees here now city

this Teller begin ter slap hisself, first
here and then there, an he seemed
awful nervous.
Chris turned Ground and said,
whats the matter with you, man?
Have you got cooties?" An the fell
Ter was so busy slappin' hisself that
he didn't have time ter anser fer
while. He'd slap hisself on the leg
with a jerk, an then he'd slap his
self in the front of his pants at the
lower part of his stomach. He act
ed like one of these here now vaudy-
vile contortionists what's tryin' ter
be funny.
An between slaps he told Chris
as how he'd brung a load of hay
inter town, an he'd felt somethin'
or other moving around in his pants
ever since. He allowed as how he
believed a mouse'd crawled up his
pants leg. An by cracky if he could
ketch him he'd mash the stuffin'
outer him, by cracky!
Then Chris allowed as how he
didn't want no more mice a-run-
MIN around his place, cause he had
more'n he knew what to do with al
ready, an anyway he didn't believe
in mixin' the breed. SO he opens the
front door an says. if you're goin'
ter shed any mice why shed 'em
outdoors.
Just then the Teller hollers, 81
got 'eml The dirty little**+*+****"!
1.-THE editor wouldn't let me put in
that word.) An he grabbed the place
in his pants where he'd caught the
mouse with both hands. Then he
squeezed like thunder! Gosh how he
did squeeze! You'd although that
he was a-wringin' out wet clothes.
Then he got out on the sidewalk
an begin ter try and shake the
remains outer his pants. He'd hold
his pants away from his leg an
kick around like like one Of these
here now Rushin dancers what you
reads erbout in the papers. Purity
soon the folks all Ground there
thinks mebbe he's crazy. But after
while he gifts the mouse out, an
gosh you'd oughter seen it,
All the stuffin's was squeezed out
of it so it looked like it's been turn
ed wrong side out. An this Teller
allowed as how he'd bet it wouldn't
crawl up nobody else's pants legs.
An lafl Gosh! Chris an every
body LATED till their bellies ached.
