GLENDALE HAPPENINGS
Our Return

know what the winter months con
tain for us. We dread to face thu
SHOWS, sleet. and rain, and the cole
Arctic winds which are so prevalent
during the winter season. When peo-
pie are advanced in years they have
TO be careful not to expose them
selves too much, or that dread dis
ease pneumonia will seize their bod
les and with short notice cause
them to pass on.
We missed the church and church
school while away, and our minds
often wandered to the little church
at Glendale and the services con-
Quoted there.
September
What a wonderful month Septem-
ber is. 1t is the end of summer, and
when the fall sets in. 1t is also when
the people who have summer homes
at some watering resort, close their
cottages and HE away home to pre-
pare to meet in a substantial way
the Arctic winds which are only a
few months away.
This has been a month when all
who are able should motor through
the country and see the grand sights
which nature unfolds for their view
as they pas salong. The fields, whose
corn, in the shocks, denotes that
farmers labor has not been in vain.
The forests whose trees are getting
ready to shed their foliage of bright
colors, are also an indication that
winter will soon be with us. The
flowers which grow by the wayside
will soon pass from our sight for
the time being and the grand seem
cry which they have been such an
important part will pass with them.
The apple orchards, loaded heavily
with fruit, are sight worth going
many miles to see; soon the fruit
will be gathered and sold for win
ter's use. The Keiffer pear orchards |
with so much fruit on the trees, and |
the price so low that it will not pay |
to ship them, but it is a grand sight |
to see and to know if they cannot be |
shipped at a profit, they can be do !
mated to the poor and thereby make
the hearts of those who receive them
happy-but motor on; hear the last
songs of the birds which will soon
seek their homes in warmer eli
mate; some have already gone.
Don't forget to visit Glendale
Swamp, the finest piece of forest
land in the State and note how
green the holly is and with their red
berries, lntermixed with the bright
foliage of the forest trees, make
most enhancing scene. This trip [
over the du Pont Boulevard through {
the State is well worth taking and {
those who miss motoring through '
the State at this season of the year, [
we feel sure will regret it. The pure ]
air seems to put new life in the hui {
man body, and causes them to look S
upon the world at large with a
great deal more pleasure than for
merly.
We welcome thee, September, {
Thou richest of the year
No month of all the others, {
Doth bring so much cheer {
Glad thanks to thee, September, f
Thou month of gifts galore; 7
For winter thou providest v
A rich and bounteous store. \
Flowers {
Some miscreants have been busy A
lately in stealing flowers from the -
porches Of some of our citizens. \
They nave been for a long time s
stealing chickens, but never until -
ately have they been guilty of I
stealing flowers. People should O
watch carefully and whenever any Il
me is caught purloining goods be-
onging to others they should at II
,nce be. arrested and if convicted, E
Ihould be made to feel the lashes on n
heir bare backs as applied by the il
heriffs of the different counties "
where the crimes are committed. tC
We again say that with all the Of i
lcers which the counties and State s,
lave these stealings should be stop ],
,ed and there is no doubt if the pill L
ering now going on, should be trac- Q;
d as it should, many who commit e
hese crimes would be behind bars,
nd not allowed to go scot free. al
We understand that some of the m
Ieople IN nearby towns have lost r.
heir flowers in the same way late es

Charles Neibert of this town has in

orester, forest fire warden, and he Y,
J to be allowed to choose twelve in

Ir. Taber made no mistake when NJ

ghting forest fires is no easy work re
I'D men who engage in it should be w
