The new bank, to be known as the Elizabeth- town Trust company, will have re- sources of approximately $1,500, 000. Negotiations for the merger were started some time ago. The boards of directors of both banks approved the consolidation at recent meetings and state and national inspectors passed approval early this week. A few minor details yet remain to be cleared away before the actual merging of the banks. WHY THEY DRINK MUDDY WATER BECAUSE THE BROWNS DUMP THEIR DYE WATER INTO SPRINGS, THEREBY POL- LUTING IT past two weeks a of the citizens of Mount Joy are being put to the same uncalled inconvenience and accorded the same treatment from the firm of George Browns Sons here as has been the owner of Crys- tal Springs for the past year and a half. Many of these people are this firm's employes. For quite a while the Browns quit dumping their dye water into the writer's beautiful springs but of late they sure are making up for lost time. During the past two weeks the springs looked as though they were ink springs and Saturday and Sunday hey were so black that we were keeping a close watch for fear the dye kettles at the cotton mills would come down next and float on down the Chickies creek. The water in the Little Chickies creek was very muddy for some time and we presume the Browns have an idea that by dumping their dye water into said springs and creek it would not be so noticeable under these conditions. Up to the time that the Browns polluted these springs, hundreds of people from town carried or hauled their drinking water from this source whenever the boro water was not clear. We have had a lot of muddy wat- er this summer, which the boro can- not avoid, and as a result many people drive to Donegal Springs and other places for their supply of drinking water. Heretofore these people procured their supply at Crystal Springs, but the owner is seriously considering changing the name to Black Springs as it, would be far more appropriate. Hundreds of people from far and near are weekly visitors to this par- ticular plot which has been greatly improved by the owner. All are surprised and many are astonished at the “WHAT DO WE CARE” at- titude of the Browns in this matter. Saturday Mr. Howard Reynolds, editor of the Quarryville Sun, Mr. Harry E. Trout, editor and publish- er of the Manheim Sentinel and Mr, W. Hardy, editor of Williamsport’s leading daily, were guests of the cditor at Crystal Springs. They were very much surprised to learn that Thos. J. Brown, head of Geo. Brown’s Sons, a member of the Legislature and president of the First National Bank and Trust Company, of this boro, would per- mit such a violation to continue. Sunday there were callers at Crystal Springs Hfpom Washington, D. C., Philadelphia, Harrisburg, York and around here and we would hate to see in print some of the remarks passed about those guilty of this spring pollution. Very Bad Today The dye kettles at the cotton mill must have been dumped lately. Yesterday the water was almost clear and today it is so discolored that we believe it could be used for dyeing purposes. Everybody is in- vited to go to the Springs and see these conditions.

Little is known by | Mrs. about her father and mother. Mus, remember her moth- ier but was always told that she was buried near Marietta. “I am interested in the story,” the Mount Joy woman said. ‘“Some time I hope to see the woman in { Peoria.
