MISSIONARIES FAREWELL

A deeply impressive farewell"

last evening when three foreign
missionaries were wished God

with the Departure Hymn" to bid
these valiant soldiers of the Cross
go forth into deepest India, where
they have been sent to the Bengal
Mission, never to return.
This service is held at St. Pat
rick's every year. The music was
under the direction OF Miss Jennie
Glennan, organist, with the choir
of st. Patrick's Church and the
Seminarian Choir tsinging unac-

that rings from the choir. Last
evening the singing at st. Patrick's
took on new meaning, as in heart

Although Senator Borah occasion

he usually seems to find some ex-

Senator and Mrs. Borah did not at

reason given for declining being
that Mrs. Borah was i'll and the

Committees from the Linwood
Taxpayers Association and Bor-
ough Council will report results
of an investigation which was
made with a view of securing a
portion of the land adjacent to
Bargaintown Mill pond for park
site, when the Council meets on
September 8.
Councilmen who have acted as
committee have investigated
the proposition with committee
from the Taxpayers Association,
which brought the matter to their
attention, and are expected to
have an interesting report to
make at the meeting.
The matter has attracted much
interest here because many Lin
wood residents wish the commun-
ity to progress, and see the build
ing of park site step forward.
The matters that will be re-
ported will be the chances of Sc
curing ground for the site at the
pond, and the purchase of the
pond rights. Members of Coun-
Gil are reported to be unwilling
to have the ground leased unless
it can be for a long term of years.

Women in Washington, N. j.,
are becoming more active in bust
ness and are doing work that at
one time it was thought only men
could do. Women manage sever
al stores, a young woman drives
the town taxi, a woman will be
found as telegraph operator and
women are in the ice business.
1t is the women of the Nneer
family who are in the ice bust
ness. Four ice trucks owned by
the family are run by four sisters
and if one Of the four cannot re
port for duty, there is the mother
in reserve who can drive a car
and carry ice as well as her
daughters. The girls carry from
eight to ten tons of ice daily, al
though the business is owned by
their father.
The situation came about as the
result of the war. When the men
were taken away it looked as if
the ice business would collapse,
but the girls plunged into the
work. The youngest of them is
Lillian, II years old. The others
are Airline, Margaret and Helen.
