BLOOMING GROVE.
M. Euitoh :
In your issue of tho 25 n It. I no
tice your correspondent from Dins
mans Ferry seems to feel quite sor
ry for tlm Blooming (Jrovo Park As
sociation. He nppears to think that
because they pay their taxes and
employ native labor they are entit
led to special privileges. So far as
taxes are concerned I hey don't pay
any more than other people do in
proportion to the property they own
and when they had their land on the
seated assessment valued at $1.00
aero they did not pay quite as much.
I wish to remind you correspond
ent that tho residents of Blooming
Grove are not, loafers, nor do they
uphold or encourage trespassing,
still when ono of our boys is caught
on the Park grounds he should have
a just trial under the samo Act of
Assembly that a member of the club
woul l bo tried by for a similar of
fense. They build largely on their
charter but at tho gnnie time seem
to forget that there are other laws
in Pennsylvania that gentleman nre
bound to respect. If CuMar will
SK'iid ono summer in Blooming
Grove and make himself acquainted
with the surroundings, and facts
connected with tho cass ho will be
better able to tell the. public who the
loafers and who the gentleman are.

bis fainilv had the Grip in its worst

New Discovery for Consumption

cure for La Grippe and all tlironr

"Three bottles cured the whole fam
ily. No other medicine on earth

Pennsylvania has thirteen Slate
Noi'.nal schools while New .Tersev
has but one located at Trenton.

Pennsylvania has I think 13 Nor

trying to have one located at'that
place and should they Huceeed it
would ho a great convenience to
those attending the school from the
northern part of tho state as many
could board at home.
Tho dance nt Jacob Avers in upper
Montague last week was the best so
far ns a good time is concerm d that

particularly good, the cake nf the
best, and tho order was equal to that
of the "100" who- sojourning at the
Waldorf Astoria.
As the years roll by our schools
prow smaller and our Board nf Ed.
should do something in the lino nf
consolidation. It would bo better
for tho schools ami flu ineially better
for the township. Tho two schools
along the rivor have from 4 to 10
daily Httendaneo and if the two
schools were put, together would
make ono small sized school, at ono
half the present cost for maintaining
tho two. What say you Mr. Board.
Cannot some influential party per

is worthy of consiiieratiou by the

which hesavs tho statement that he
has been paying the school fund on
the basis of $5,500,000 per annum is
a m'sleading one.
"All payments mado," ho savs,
"have simply been advances upon
their (the districts') snares of the
total appropriation, which are
charged against them, upon the
amount they are to receive next
year. Any district that receives an

that it will receive next year. I
