Mrs. Subina Dolan
Buried Monday
Was Wife Of Former
Noxen Hotelman
(Contributed)
The funeral of Mrs. Subina Rogan
Dolan of Montrose, widow of the late
Thomas L. Dolan, was held Monday
morning from the home of her
brother, Timothy Rogan, Dimock,
followed by a requiem mass in the
Holy Name of Mary Church, Mont-
rose. Rev. Dr. William K. Dolan,
nephew of the deceased, of St.
Peter’s Cathedral, Scranton, was cel-
ebrant
Thomas L. Dolan, her late hus-
band, was for many years proprietor
of a hotel at Noxen, and later of
the Montrose House, the present
location of the Montrose Inn.
Mrs. Dolan was the mother of
twelve children. She is survived by
the following: Sister Mary Con-

Wilkes-Barre; Mrs. J. Clayton Cady

brother, Timothy Regan, Dimock,
and a sister, Sister Mary Agnes, New
York. Another son, Regis, died
last November.
Mrs, Dolan needs no eulogy. Her
life stands as her finest memorial.
It is difficult to believe that a wo-
man, so much a part of life in the
Back Mountain section for so many
years has left us. It seems scarcely
possible that her life, filled with so
many things, and spreading in so
many directions could suddenly and
completely be snapped off in a few
days. Perhaps we find it so diffi-
cult because we do not want to be-
lieve that she has gone. Her hearty,
honest, cheery manner was a tonic
for people with whom she came in
contact. We cannot call her back,
but we can in tribute to her, try to
copy the charming characteristics
which made her respected by all.
Police Rush Accident
Victims To Hospital
Prompt action by Harvey's Lake
police averted more serious compli-
cations to two people injured in an
automobile accident at the lake on
Monday noon when Chief Ira C.
Stevenson and Patrolman. Fred
Swanson rushed the victims, Stella
Boline of Wilkes-Barre and Henry
Hmileski of Glen Lyon, to Nesbitt
Memorial Hospital.
Miss Boline and Hmileski, both
of whom are being treated for pos-
sible fractures, less serious injuries
and shock, were injured when a car
operated by the latter was struck
by a tank car rolling loose on the
Lehigh Valley grade crossing at Al-
derson. Four other occupants of the
car, including Harold Hoover of Al-
derson, suffered minor injuries.
The tank car, which had been cut
loose from its train, could not be
controlled by its brakeman, Howard
Brisbing of Avoca, and struck the
side of the automobile, pushing it
down the tracks for about 50 feet.
According to Chief Stevenson, the
machine had stalled on the tracks.

Guidebook Explains
How You Can Help
“What can I do to help preserve
America’s democracy and make it
work better 2”
Thousands of Americans, aroused
by current happenings here and
abroad, are asking : that question.
Many are engaged in actual military
training. Others are at work in the
defense industries. Still others will
volunteer their services to Mayor
LaGuardia, recently appointed direc-
tor of the Office of Civilian Defense.
But millions of Americans are
neither soldiers nor defense work-
ers, and will not be needed for the
semi-military defense activities
which Mayor LaGuardia is setting
in motion. For these millions, the
answer to the question “What can
I do?” is tackled in a new 88-page
guidebook, “Defense on Main
Street,” just issued by the Council
For Democracy, 285 Madison Ave.,
New York City.
The book is designed to help the
average citizen who wants to make
his personal effort to safeguard and
strengthen our democracy against
Deater Seeks Tax Job .

announced his candidacy for the
office of tax collector in Lake Town-

incumbent has announced that he
will not seek re-election. Mr. Deater
has been a resident of Lake town-
ship for the past 45 years and is
one of the best known business men
in that section. His opponent will
be D. P. Thomas.

menace within as well as from with-
out. It is for typical Americans in
typical American communities, for
the man and woman on Main Street
in Every City, U. S. A.
There are examples of what many
main-streeters have done in defense
of democracy, and a program of
practical projects to help others who
want to make their contribution
to ‘the defense effort. Some of
these projects, the book states, can
be undertaken by the individual as
a “one-man crusade.” Others can
be tackled by groups and com-
munities.
Urging groups to get together, the
Council outlines a plan for setting
up community co-ordinating coun-
cils. It points out that such coun-
cils would avoid overlapping by or-
ganizations taking on similar tasks,
and result in expansion and intensi-
fication of group activities.
Another section of the guidebook
undertakes to answer the most fre-
quently heard calumnies against
democracy. Each attacking question
is stated, and an answer suggested
for the reader to use when he wants
to “speak up for democracy.”

women enjoy more freedom here
than anywhere else; that injustices

people; that refugees have been giv-
ing America more than they have
been taking; that anti-semitism is
merely the old Hitler technique of
attempting to divide us; that labor
is entitled to the right of collective
bargaining even during a great na-
tional emergency and that democ-
racy while preserving all human
freedom, can still outstrip dictator-
ships in production.
The guidebook contains an intro-
duction by Raymond Gram Swing,
chairman of the Council For De-
mocracy, an organization ‘dedicat-
ed to the propagation of an Ameri-
can faith in democracy.” It defines
democracy as follows:
“To us, democracy is two things:
(1) A form of government—a mag-
nificently interrelated system of free
elections, ordered laws, responsible
representation and free speech—
‘government by the consent of the
governed.” It may be imperfect but
