we have young drunkards; but, If

America, not over one-tenth as

is point: While England does
drink-young and old-the morning
finds few in the jails below twenty
years of age. In ten days past, in
the state of New Jersey, I've
seen thirty-four school boys and
girls--or they should be in school
up for drunken driving, etc.

TRUCKS COLLIDE ON
RIVER ROAD

Lambertville-Tw large trucks
owned by Jesse Mason collided on
the River Road between here and
Trenton last Thursday, badly dam
aging both of them. One truck was
on its way to Trenton loaded with
brick, and the other was returning
1t was not learned Just why the
trucks should not be able to pass
each other safely, as the road, as it
is more than wide enough all the
way to permit even the largest
trucks to pass safely. Complaint has
been made recently against the
practice of drivers of Mr.. Mason's
trucks to race each other on the
Lambertvilie approach of the River
Bridge to see which could get onto
the bridge first.

Voluntary Receiver
ship For NesV
Hope Brick Co.
A. V. Wise. of Philadelphia, APP
pointed BY Judge Dickinson

New Hope-The recently organ
lied New Hope Brick Co. last week
went into voluntary receivership be-
fore the United States District Court
of Pennsylvania, and Judge Dick
inson as appointed A. V. Wise, of
Philadelphia, as receiver. The re.
ownership is explained by Ives L.
Harvey, president, as being friend
ly action to protect not only the
stockholders, but the creditors of
the concern.
1t is reported that engineers val
uations placed on the present plant
with its three kilns is 100000 And
with only the three kilns of the
ten which will ultimately be built,
it is understood that they are
operating at net profit of some
$4,000 per month. Under this re-
ownership the company will have
chance to gradually pay off its
outstanding indebtednesses without
having bankruptcy proceedings in
stituted against them.
However, there have been muir
murings of discomfort among local
stockholders over the management of
the plant. and the receiversbip may
also result in reorganization to
insure local good will. Everyone
familiar with the plant and its
possibilities are convinced that it
can be made a highly proft-making
concern in time. The brick now being
manufactured are of the highest
quality, and the present output of
the three kilns finds ready mar

R.R. A Sked To Stop
Excessive Whistles
Nerve-Shattering Shrieks Called
Unnecessary

Lambertville-At the Monday
evening meeting of the Board of
Commissioners a letter was received
from the Pennsylvania Railroad in
which they promised to investigate
the excessive whistling of locomo-
tives passing thru the city. The
Commission had protested against
the practice, as it has been pointed
out that most of the whistling is
unnecessary beyond the actual
amount of signalling needed
The Railroad promised to have the
whistling reduced to the lowest
amount possible in consistency with
safety. But whether they will keep
their promise any better than they
did about blocking of crossings re-
mains to be seen. Numerous pro-
tests have been made against the
blocking of crossings, but it still
continues in defiance of the travel
ing public. And when autoists impa-
tiently blow their horns the train
crews deride them. 1t wouldn't be
tolerated in any other city.
OTHER BUSINSS OF THE
COMMISSION
The controversy between the prop
erty owners at A, 46 and as Ferry
street came up aGain. A cess pool
located under the sidewalk there had
been orderd used in common by the
three properties. 1t seems that the
owner of the cess pool protested be
cause he had to bear the expense Of
cleaning it. The Commissioners or
dered the City to notify them that
unless satisfactory arrangements
were made the pool would be closed.
A request from Union Fire Co.
for a swivel booster nozzle and two
suction pipes was granted, and the
Clerk was instructed to place the
order. A letter from Thomas Hard
wick, asking for drainage improve
ments on Cottage Hill, was referred
to Commissioner Hayhurst. The
Clerk was directed to notify Mrs.
John Saunders to have street curb
placed before her property at South
Union and Ferry streets.
