BAROK DeHIRSCH

FDHD OH RIGHT TACK

As in agricultural experiment the Woodbine colony, founder by the Baron DeHirsch Fund, was not an eminent success, possibly

because the colonists

agriculturally inclined and possibly because they were not practically acquainted with the soil and conditions of agriculture in

South Jersey. Be the reasons!,^ U( *

what they may. the colony did 1 not succeed on the lines laid out

by the founders.

Not discouraged by this disappointment the Baron DeHirsch Fund has started on another tack, that of cultivating the ethical side of the colonists, or their descendants, and from the results attained in a short period indications are that the)- arc on the right tack and that seed is bring that will bring forth a

themselves.

This objective being now as-

and refining things of life.

HUGE SUM

Thirty millions of dollars in Christmas club funds was the tidy sum paid out by the banks and trust companies of the Third Federal Reserve District. This district is composed of Eastern Pennsylvania. Delaware and Southern New Jersey. Eleven millions of this sum was paid out in the city of Philadelphia, the remaining nineteen millions being paid out in the smaller cities and rural sections of t>*e district. This is a splendid showi. - ?". Who can compute the happiness this saving of a year's time will bring to thousands on Christmas morning. It would be a wonderful picture if it could bt
