the Record are those of the Lehigh

Tho bankers say that of the $4,000,
000 in deposits In Wayne county the

These farmers , manage to maintain

sustaining schools and churches; but
many of our boys and girls have left
the lure of the city and have gone to
Scranton and other cities, and thero
are good farms tenantless In this
county farms that can be purchas
ed for less than the labor cost on
them; farms which under good till
ago will yield a good return; farms
where people can llye In a healthful,
sanitary manner; farms where fam
ilies can bo reared in righteousness,
with sons and daughters fitted for
usefulness, much better than In the
city. Come, all you land-hungry;
there is land enough at fair prices
If you really want It."

WHAT NOT TO GIVE AT CHRIST
MAS.
Whips, swords and guns to chil
dren. Unless we want the children
to play whipping, dueling and flcht-
ing. Whips, swords and guns are
not girts tor children.
Rubber toy animals for the baby
to squeeze, and those which make a
noise when pinched. Unless we want
the baby to learn to squeeze tho live
Kitten until it cries.
A kitten or puppy is most unsuit
able for a very small child. Unless
we want the child to enjoy hurting it,
though ignorantly.
A live goldfish. Unless we like
to see an animal slowly smothered
from lack of air, and think it will
be good training for the child to see
the fish gasp, and die a lingering
death.
Any live animal that must depend
upon a young cnuci ror rood and wa
ter should not be chosen for a gift.
A caged bird. Unless we think it
a nappy sight to have a bird Drisoner.
Unless we are sure" It is a proper
signt ror a child.
Books on hunting, robbery, mur
der and war. Unless we want tho
child accustomed early to thoughts of
aeatn and ngony. Books can t be
judged at a glance like toys and ani
mals. Books given to children should
first be read.
Choose. Give. But think.
WESTERN HUMANE PRESS COM
MITTEE. STATE ISSUING NEW
AUTOMOBILE LICENSES,
Highways Department Records Show
An Increase of 30,100 for Last
Year Over 1012.
On and after January 1 all own
ers and operators of automobiles,
motorcycles and other motor-driven
vehicles must display 1914 licenses.
They aro the same size as those now
in use, but the new ones have white
figures and a black background. Li
censes for solid tired vehicles have
an added aluminum plate, showing
tne weight or the vehicle for which
the license is Issued.
All licenses are being sent out by
parcel post this year; heretofore they
have been sent by express.
The highways department shows
that 131,239 licenses were Issued in
1913 against 92,139 for 1912, an In
crease of 39,100.
One of the most important features
of the new act is that fixing the ago
limit of those who may operate cars.
No person under sixteen years will be
allowed to run a car on any public
highway, no exception being made In
any case.
The act Also gives the commission
er of highways tho right to revoke
the license of any chauffeur or own
er and the registration of any car for
improper conduct in the operation
cf the machine.
The Fact Remains
No amount of misrepresentation by the
peddlers of alum baking powders, no jug
gling with chemicals, or pretended analysis,
or cooked-up certificates, or falsehoods of
any kind, can change the fact that
has been Sound hy the offi
cial exaaiaSRaMons to be of the
liigliesl leavening efficiency,
free from alum, and of absolute
purify and wnolesomeness.
Royal Baking Powder is indispensable
for making finest and most economical food.
