"Fare, please!" soon will bo the train
man's merry call,
And from our pockets wide and deep
may nickels wo will haul,
And
We'll Rladly hand them over,
We'll hum like bees In clover.
Then praise the builders of tho road In
language strong and tall.
1 IIGHT hero In Hawley every-
I I bo,ly ls talk,nB about the
new trolley road. Of
IKiffil course everybody wants to
enjoy a rido over tho new
electric thoroughfare, and every last
one of them would like to take that
ride quicker than Instantly. I nd
vlso everybody to bo patient, to save
some of their show imoney for tho
new trolley sensation, and to rest
assured of one thing for a certainty,
and that Is this: Before election day
rolls around the road will be built
and Honesdale ladies can have every
opportunity of visiting Hawley and
incidentally of doing a little shop
ping with Hawley merchants, stop
ping at the White Mills stores on
their way home to complete their
purchases, and then get a car for
home in time to get supper ready
for "the old man" of the house.
Ahem!
There are as many opinions of
the new trolley enterprise as Valone,
of Plttston, has children, and then
some more. Who is Valone, of Pitts
ton? Sure, I don't know! All I can
tell you about it ls that I cut tho
following from the Now York Sun
tho other day, signed at tho bottom
with the name of "Don Marquis":
Nathan Valone, of Plttston, Ta., has
just become tho father of his twenty
sixth child a fact which Incites us to
plunge into the depths of parody.
Did yo hear of old Daddy Valone,
Ohone?
Seo how his family has grown,
Ohone!
Oh, he's broko all tho hearts
Of the storks of them parts
Ho hated to live all alone,
Ohone!
Ho hated to Uvo all alone!
Of children he had a full score
A corps!
But says he, "I want twenty-four,
Or more!" ""
When ho got twenty-five
lie was proud man alive!
"But I want twenty-six!" says Valone,
Ohone!
"Twenty-six for old Daddy Valone!"
Now, by the time the new road
gets in operation, say in November
next at the very latest, what a jolly
excursion trip it would make for
Mr. and Mrs. Valone with all tho
llttlo Valones to take the Laurel
Line to No. G, in Dunmore, then the
E. & W. V. to illawley, then the new
trolley from Hawley, via White
Mills, to Honesdale, then to Scranton
over the D. & H., via Prompton,
Waymart, Lodore, Farview, Carbon
dalo and the upper Valley towns,
thence home in any of the many
ways open to them for transporta
tion. What a jolly excursion that
Valone party would have, and how
they would all enjoy it.
iBut, wo forgot ourselves! Par
don us! Those opinions regarding
tho new road were what I started out
to write about, and there are so
many other things ahead to be con
sidored in this department that they
really will have to bo considered
later on. So wo shall all of us have
something coming to look forward
to, like the promised "licking" of
our boyhood days.
t t
Tho Piney AVoods South Hill
To bo Surveyed.
The plot of land on the south
hill-side of Hawley Is to be surveyed
soon in order to determine where
the lines He, what are the legal
boundaries and how many acres It
contains. When that very necessary
work is completed there will bo a
move made towards acquiring the
land for borough possession and pine
forest preservation.
t t
You Better "Watch Out"
For This Individual.
Last Saturday night there evi
dently was something doing up at
Hancock, N. Y., for in the still hours
when honest folks were abed and
rogues were supposed to bo a-jog-ging,
"the en'torprislng burglar" was
ovldently a-burgllng. The special
point of the burglar artist's fine
work was on the jewelry storo of
Frank M. Guild, and tho "plunder"
carried off was much and numerous,
including bracelets, rosaries, 5 lock
ets, 150 gold rings, some of which
contained opals and others contain
ed valuable stones, scarf pins, and
other articles.
Special officer Ed. Richardson Is
in receipt of a description of the ar
ticles stolen and a description of the
alleged robber and burglar, who is
named as Richard Jesse Cornelius
Personehs, and is described as being
about 28 years of age, 5 feet 0
Inches in height and weighing 145
pounds. Ho is further described as
having reddish brown hair which he
parts in the middle. His hair is cur
ly on the sides, and he is proud of it,
wearing his hat well back on his
head to show his curls. He has a
smooth, red face and a sharp nose.
He is a glass cutter, but does paint
ing as a sldo line. Ho fondly ima
gines he is an actor, and consorts
with theatrical people. Ho also loves
the' "flowing bowl." He has a cut
over his left eye, and his name is
tattooed on one of his arms.
Now, If a nico fellow like that
comes around to your house and
wants to sell you a ring or some
other article of jewelry, don't be in
too big a hurry, but let Ed. Richard
son know and he will arrange for a
personal interview with your caller.
t
Work on the Comity Bridge
Is Progressing ltunldly.
Workmen on tho enlarged county
bridge are making satisfactory pro
gress. Unfortunately, the County
Commissioners did not move the old'.
bridge to some point where it could
bo utilized and give tho public a
bran new one in its place. As it is,
when the bridge ls completed the
main driveway will be divided in the
centre, and that ls certainly an un
desirable feature. A bridge com
posed of a wide driveway flanked on
either side by walks for pedestrians
would have given better and 'more
lasting satisfaction, and the old
urldge might have been moved to
some other point where it would
have "just fitted in."
t t
Wayno County Folks Go
To Cnrbondulo to Wed.
Henry Hartman, formerly of
Honesdale, and Miss Eunice Rowe,
formerly of Cherry Ridge, both of
whom now live in iHawley and work
in the Bellmonte silk mill, surprised
their many friends last week by
quietly slipping out of town and on
Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
were united In marriage at the Meth
odist parsonage on Terrace street,
Carbondale. Tho ceremony was per
formed by the pastor. Rev. F. D.
Hartsock, Ph. D. After a short
wedding trip Mr. and Mrs. Hart-
man will take up their residence In
mis town.
t t
"It Looks Ileal Good to Me,"
Said Charier Wiley.
When Charles Wiley alighted
from tho morning E. & W. V. train
on Tuesday and crossed through the
station on the Honesdalo branch
side, as he caught a whiff of tho
freshness nf thn ATIrldln rroir nnd
the Lackawaxen he made a remark
similar to the above. He was on his
way to Port Jervls In the matter
of a real estate deal, having sold a
farm at Holllstorvllle to one Wal
ter Wayno, of Throop, Pa. Charles
Wiley used to live in Wayne county
ills Home was at Avoy, and he was a
DODUlar and nalnstnlHnfr crtinnl
teacher. For years, however, ho has
uvea in scranton. He is now, and
tor a long time has been In the U
ent district being in the residential
part of Green Ridge in tho vicinity of
ouiitsei auu jiecinc avenues.

quest of the council. When the mat-1
ter came up at the regular meeting
on Monday night the borough law
makers pointed out tho fact that,
there are two ways from the East'
Slue already, and declared that they
never did understand the "rule of

t t
Catholic Cemetery Enlargement
Comes From Atkinson Tract.
The writer is reliably informed
that it has been decided to enlarge
the Catholic cemetery by the pur
chase of five acres from the Atkin
son estate. This makes the enlarge
ment on the north-west side of the
present city of the dead, vangum
avenue furnishes a good road al
most to the plot, and without much
labor or expense tho avenue can be
extended until it reaches the ground.
This addition does not embrace any
or tne pine lot that wo have re
cently been talking about in this de
partment. Two other plots of land
were considered, but both of them
were too rocky to receive much con
sideration. t t
Hawley Knights of Columbus
Went to Port Memorial Day.
On Memorial day It was expected
that a special train would be run on
the E. (k W. V. tn nronmrnnrlnto tho
K. of C. from Scranton, but as "there
is many a sup 'twixt the cup and
tho Hd." even so it is with raltrnnHa
and special trains. There was no,
special train with banners flying and
big drums a-booming. But certain
of our Hawley boys belong to that
oruer 01 manuina winch halts not a
delays or chancres of nlnn. hut thov
get there. Peter and Daniel Cor
coran, Patrick Monahan, Michael
Zenzen, Charles McHale and Frank
Curran, all of them bravo Knights,
went right along to Port Jervls, ac
companied Dy Patrick Leonard and
Harmann Everdean, who, by tho
way, have not yet earned their gold
en spurs.
The Hawley boys were met at the
station by Grand Knight Sloran.
The 3rd degree was conferred on a
class of 75 candidates in a manner
most impressive. After this the
Daughters of Isabel served a fine
supper in the basement of St. Slary's
R. C. Church. Which wns fnllnwnil
by a ball in Slulrain's hall. Every
nawiey Doy in attendance report a
imost enjoyable time.

Last Sunday the Boys' band, un

taking the Wllsonvillo road around
by P. J. Keary's farm. It was a real
marching drill, In preparation for
July 4th. Of course tho boys
had their Instruments with them.

were present, and as a souvenir of
tho event ho was presented with a
travelling grip, a comb and a brush.
The presentation speech was imado
by Mr. Schalm. To the astonish
mont of those in attendance the
boys' band played several pieces in
a most creditable manner. Refresh
ments wore served, and the table a
large one had to be set four times
ere the last hungry guest was satis
fled. Sirs. Beppler has not removed to
Dunmore as yet, but will for a time
continue 10 reside in Hawley.

Hawley, at least that is what "they"
an say it was, was that of Memorial
day, May 30, 1913. The services in
honor of tho dead sailors and sold
iers was a success in every particu
lar. Tho P. O. S. of A. camp from
Lakovlllo was well represented in
the procession. Talking about pro
cessions reminds the writer of a
procession that occurred in 1875 or
187G. That was in tho days when

IWe are well aware of the fact that more-people are capable of starting a
bank account with a 'small amount than with a large one.
CjJThe principal thing is to start; then keep adding to your account by regu

Starting the ball rolling; that is the hardest part. After it once gains
momentum the rest is easy.
CjBegin right now; $1.00 will do it and will be as welcome as a larger
amount. Perhaps we can help you with one of our HOME SAVINGS BANKS.
They are a great aid. Gome in and see them.
