December 25. and will be in . barge of Otto Wahrendork. Mr. and Mrs. Haroid flumerfelt ■pent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. William Webber, at Georges road. Frank M. Denton and G. Srlll of the Forsgate farm, have an* unccJ the holding ol an importnnt tv t tng in the Jamesburg High School auditorium the Hist week In Jan uary. the date to be set this week. The meeting will be a session of the Extension Department of the Ntw Jersey Farm Bureau and will be an attempt to interest the township members to meet locally and not have to go long distances to corner on the latest ideas in agri. culture. The annual Christmas treat of the fcunday school scholars of St. James Catholic church will be held on Sun day next. Doceniber IS, when the children will be presented with tokens for a certain per cent gain ed by attendance at the Sunday achool. Announcement has been made by the First Baptist church that the •'watch meeting’ services at the church on New Year's eve will be held as in .former years and the congregation of the Jamesburg Methodist '-hurch have been invited to join with them. The custom of enjoying a feast of good eats at the ■troke of twelve will be omitted this year ow-ing to the New Year's fall ing on Sunday. The serv ice held at the Methodist church the past ten days have been discontinued owing to a lack of interest in same. They will be resi'med following the new- year. Marshal Fillhower has inaugu rated a novelty in the borough lockup that has appealed to many of the better class of tourists who aeek shelter. A new downy mat tress and pillows have been placed in the room adjoining the cells and applicants for lodging who can furnish suitable references as tio tlielr character are given the bed in the private room. The idea has made a hit with the unfortu nates who are corwpelled to aeek shelter and are- not of the class who desire to sleep in the ordinary cell with pine boards for the mat tress. — —' JL HOKKAY & RESKO 2* SMITH ST MEET PHONE 1M7 NOT AH V PUBLIC Foreign Exchange iud Steamship Ticket Agents Branch Agency American Express Co.
