Archaeology is one of the most
fascinating studies into which man
can drift. Many make it pastimei
an avocation, just because Of the
lure of it. They want to learn about
what went on.
Whatever The First People did
we know something definite. We
know that we are their heirsl
The First People had to learn how
to clothe themselves, how to keep
from getting killed by animals only
a little more wild than they, how to
make fire and keep it going, how to
build shelter.
Things like that took ages to learn
among the First People. When we
do those simple things we are pro-
fitting by their terribly painful ex-
ploration and experience.

new HOPE VOTE
SHOWS A SPLIT
Bitter Contest For County Com
mittee Members
NEED FOR HARMONY

New While this boro has
an overwhelming majority of Repub-
lican votes, and voted solid last week
for the important offices on the tick
ct, still the returns may be consider
ed barometer revealing stormy
weather existing within the ranks.
While Pepper and Fisher were Civ
en- flattering majorities, Congressman
Watson, Republican, led the ticket
with 1876 votes. Murphy, his Demo.
cratic opponent, received only Ia
votes. Thus it would appear that
there should never be any question
about the outcome of Republican
votes.
However, different story is told
in the vote for County Committee
man and Committeewoman Bernard
Mcdonnell, seasoned campaigner, who
has been committeeman for over
thirty years, was elected with only
1913 votes--whieh is 73 votes behind
Congressman Watson, who led the
ticket. Mrs. Martha Janney, who has
never served, was elected with 124
votes--one more than Mcdonnell re-
ceived. This is explained by the fact
that the Republican vote was split
Mrs. Florence Blackfan, who has
served as committeeman since
women received the franchise, receiv-
ed 76 votes, and Richard Bennett,
member Of the Common Council, re-
ceived &c votes.
THE STORY BEHIND THE VOTE
When it is learned that Mr.. Nc
Donnell and Mrs. Blackfan alone
appeared on the printed ballots, il
is Immediately apparent there was
"a niger in the woodpile." They
were approved in caucus, as usual,
and it was not supposed there would
be any opposition. For, as has been
pointed out, they alone appeared on
the printed ballot. Mrs. Janney and
Mr.. Bennett were last-minute candi-
dates, and their names were voted
either by "stickers" or written in.
Efforts to get at the bottom of
the rumpus met more often than
not with reluctance on the part of
interested individuals. On the one
hand one hears stern contentious for
the necessity of "party CONTROL" and
the rights of managing head"
etc. On the other hand you are met
with expressions of resentment
against "bossism' and .'one-man Ctr
troll" But while those of independent
leaning are reluctant to talk, they
point to the vote with assurances
that they have made good show
ing, and show confidence that the
"old apple cart" could be easily up
set. And the sooner they can show
real test of stength, the better,
it appears, they will like it, regard
less of the outcome.
But from the disconnected COM
ments one hears, it would seem that
the agitation revolves around the
office of Justice of the Peace in this
boro. Several months ago, il is

New Hope-Prefered and Common
Stockholders of the New Hope Brick
Company met here in Worthington
Hall Tuesday afternoon. The object
of the meeting, which was called by
the committee composed of c. II.
Bressler, Webster Grimm, H. G.
Prall, C. F. Holcombe ad Gordon
Cooper, was to consider plans for re-
facilitating the plant which is now
in the hands of Receiver.
At present the plant is being oper-
ated on lease by a New York con-
Germ which is making tiles for chin
ney construction. This lease expires
in September, and it is hoped that
arrangements can be made in time
to provide new capital when this ar
rangement expires.
Julian Ward, of Sergeantsville vi
entity, reported that Joseph Ryan,
brick manufacturer of Woodbridge,
N. j., is interested in the plant, and
is willing to invest capital to refn-
ance certain phases of the plant if
proper assurances can be given MIN
for protection and participation. Ae-
cordingly committee was appointed
composed of Webster Grimm, Of
Doylestown; John l.. Marx, of Plain
field, and Alexander Mcbride, of
Lambertville, to meet Mr.. Ryan or
any other interested parties in an
effort to secure finances to properly
operate the plant.
1t was estimated that two adj
ditional kilns are needed, together
with additional drying facilities,
steam shovel and other miscellan.
eous equipment in order to operate
the plant on a capacity basis which
will net sufficient profit to take care
of all obligations. The Committee
is to secure such offers as may be
available and when plan is agreed
upon they are to report back to
another meeting of the stockhold-
ers and also confer with the Bond
holders to secure their approval so
that foreclosure proceedings may h.
averted.
