Government-owner war village two | miles from Mays Landing, less than $200,000 had been realised when the [ three-day action sale conducted bv the Philadelphia district salvage board ended Wednesday afternoonThe 5,000 acre site of the village brought $37,000 Tuesday. Less than $150,000 was realized Wednesday and yesterday from the iale of great quantities of materials and more than 300 houses and factory buildings. More than a hundred prospective buyers followed the auctioneer thru the otherwise deserted village of Belcoville all day offering sums ranging from $150 to $1,000 for cottages and double houses. A ec^re of these structures were purchased by the* N Mays Landing Power Company, owners of a cotton mill here, and purchasers of the entire village 6ite, at $15-50 an acre. - Among the structures' ©old today for less than $500 was the huge theatre building on which $80,000 was . to have been expended by the Gov- ] k ernment- Work on this btlilding was suspended, when the armistice was signed. Salvage companies from ■ Philadelphia and Baltimore were , amon- the successful bidders. ! The homes bought by the Mays Landing Power Company-will be used ' to house employees.

' FREUNGHUYSEN ON THE BONUS "NOTE TO EDITORS— THIS IS A LETTER I AM SENDING OUT TO MY CONSTITUENTS IN RE- ;- SPONSE TO LETTERS WRITTEN ME GIVING MY VIEWS RELA- " TTVE TO THE SOLDIERS' BONUS, TO BE USED AS ITS VALUE • WARRANTS" . I have delayed answering your communication in reference to the " Adjusted Compensation • Bill, not because I wished to javoid any responsibility, but because I wanted to perI sonally reply to all the letters which I have been addressed to me on this subject. There having iieen so many it Has been impossible for me to do ^ 60 until the present time. When the eo-called bonus legislation c was proposed last July, I wrote to the g Secretary .of the Treasury, asking 3 him what effect its passage would I I have upon the Treasury and the s I finances of the country- His reply ~e clearly indicated that it would be disi astro us to pay the bonus at that time and this proposition was endorsed by j the President in his message to Conj gress, in which he stated that he felt t its passage would seriously embarras s the Treasury. I then voted to recommit the bill. . Since that time the measure has i been proposed again in the House of- - Representatives and various methods S taxation considered to meet the ob- , ligation . which would be incurred ~ should the bill become a law- As a • member of the Committee in the Sen- ^ ate which would handle such legislation, I have been unwilling to express • my opinion in advance of knowing : what form the legisletion would take 5 and how the funds were to be raised , for Its payment. s The Bill passed by the House proi vides no ways or means to raise the : necessary for its fulfillment , Ordinarily Congress passes legislation I without carrying therewith the pro vis- j p ion for raising the funds necessary ; 1 therefor, but the bestwal of the bonus is no ordinary act. I do not know | . of any other measure which has ever I before the Congress which*oon- ; templates taking so large a sum from the public treasury for any giv- j en purpose- It is because I believe a consistent program that I feel ' that Congress, in distributing so , large a public fund, owes it to itself j ! and the country to make a provision 1 for raising that fund. The certificate ! ■ plan for a cash bonus contained in the House Bill is, in my opinion, un-, sound and unsafe, and therefore I I cannot vote for the measure. Very truly yours, J- S. FREUNGHUYSEN, ! U. S. S. j RIADIO UP TO THE MINUTE 1 The escapades , of "Tom Sawyer.'" Green" and "Peck's Bad Boy" may be things of the past, but j the actuating spirit still lives. j j Education "as dhe is" does not fit in or upon all the young embryos, j though the resourcefulness and . I inventive ability the living principal] within the being to be educated dis- h plays itself in many unexpected waysWithin the last few days an instance is cited wherein "the young : adapted the newest and latest!, in radio to its own amusement and j the despair of a teacher in our public I schools. The teacher, noticing that j1 -this particular pupil was not occupy-!, ing himself or applying himself as- :, siduously to the study of the lesson,!, [but sat in his seat apparently dream- ! ing, but with his eyes open and con- | - (centrated upon some matter seeming- j | ly in the' distance and leaning his , (head upon his hand, which hand eov- I , I ered one ear. For sometime the j ■ teacher waited hoping to discover -the j of. the pupil's concentration, but ! no opening came- Passing to the pu- | pil's seat the teacher discovered that' a wire passed down the leg of the ■ | young man's pants and was attached < i to a near-by radiator- Upon further |' 'examination it was discovered that ! the pupil held in his hand and against i ' Shis ear, a small receiver and had ' ;been absorbing the words and other! sounds as resounding outside. Com i manding -the pupil to the superintend | ent's office, where he was requested ; ' to unlwrti, it was found that a coil of , ' wire was deftly and securelv passed - ! around the body of the culprit.

A WIL HENRY MAULE.bc. ^ nafM" "WITH THE • JPRCHES PRESBYTERIAN le Easter Sunday, April 16, 1922, will g- he marked in the calendar of the j_ church as a day of intchectur i and religious music and one ol.wel! filled r" out and elevating harmoniesk The program presented by the is leader, Mr- Porter, was more preteny tious than any preceding. The organ . musk was of the usual fine order and rendered with exactitude and poetic sentiment for which -Miss Porn | ter is famous. The morning anthems ie showed the careful drill necessary for their execution- The solos and duets j* in "The Lord Has Risen," were well « executed and the difficulties presentle ed in the chorus had been thoroughly y mastered enabling the number to conform to the occasion without draw- '' ing attention to special effort but in ie conformity with the spirit of the day. y The masterpiece of the day was the i- cantata, "The Paschal Victor," by J. It Sebastian Matthews, a work in a highly classical region and soaring to the 18 heights of whkh modern musk only s- is capable. The organist and choir •moved as one spirit, and gave a very a religious and churchly rendition. The .difficulties surrounding the cantata can only be realized by a study of the ® script- To place all this on paper and »- to make it understandable would be d out of the question for only a know'edge of music can make it comprr hensible by the reader. The listener heard a combination of musk new to i- them, solos and choruses, with all tlie a combinations of harmonies as allowed. _ in music of the present The cli maxes in the various ' division^ we-e e supeib and well held by the performd ens.
