NEWSPAPERS CONSOLIDATED
Illßlicr Cost of White Paper is One;
Reason for Uie Merger
Plainfleld, N. J.. Oct. 9.—Announce
ment Is made in the Courier-News and
Daily Press of the consolidation of the
two newspapers, beginning with the
; issue of Monday. Both have been es

The higher cost of white paper, I
and other things necessary for a '
newspaper, coupled with the statement <

two newspapers such as are demanded
by Plainfield cannot be conducted in a
city of the size at a reasonable profit
| commensurate with the capital in
; \ested. are given as the causes of con

Banquet and Parade Mark Surer** of
Campaign at Bethlehem.
Bethlehem, Pa., Oct. 9. By one of
the biggest demonstrations ever wit
i nesped in the Valley, the cam
paign that has been conducted this
week for a hill-to-hill bridge across the
I L>ehigh river ended in a great luccea*.
The work of the 144 campaign workers
resulted In nearly $300,000 being con
tributed. In addition, the lAhigh Val
ley Transit Company contributed SIOO,-
000 for a franchise across the proposed
bridge, which will be more than a mile
in length and will cost $1,000,000. Four
railroads and Lehigh and Northampton
counties will contribute the rest of the
money.
At the final banquet of the campaign
workers. Charles M. Schwab, who has
contributed liberally toward the project,
was the guest of honor. After the final
financial reports were made there was
a parade, in which many bands and
1 thousands of persons participated.
; ADVOCATES KMI'UIVMKNT ON
I'EXAL FORM FOR PRISONERS
I Employment on a Door farm, on
county roads, or some similar work, Is
advocated for the prisoners who are
] confined in the Dauphin county prison
by Albert H. Votaw in a report to
Prison Efficiency, a Pennsylvania
prison publication.
The abolition by the county of the
old fee system is commended, although
the method of maintaining prisoners
in "genteel Idleness" is deplored. The
i benefits of the prison parole system
ure also emphasized and the need of
CASTORIA for Infants and Children.
