Enclosed please find one ($1) dollar for one year's subsccription to your valuable paper, the "Stone Harbor Gazette."

Did you know that fire insurance rates on property at Stone Harbor were greater than at anyother coast resort in South Jersey? Perhaps not, so here is an opportunity to leaiV something of great interest, not only to present owners of homes but to prospective purchasers. The reason is obvious. Last summer one of the Fire Commissioners visited Stone Harbor and found not only a very inadequate water supply, low pressure and small gauge pipes, but an alarminglyfew fire plugs. Naturally, the rates advanced and the householder as usual pays the price. And yet, that imposing water tower, with its — spiral 'rtignts or steps closet." to the curious visitor who would i mount to the top, has been one 1 of the most advertised of the great advantages and up-to-date • objects .of the wonder City-by- > the-Sea. Jn its forlorn inadequacy it is a WONDER that ' householders ever have sufficient i water for ordinary uses. During 1 the summer, it is' of frequent oc- ' currence to have the supply cut off for a few hours while laborers hunt up breaks in the supplv pipes.

I BERLIN REJOICES AT AMITY IN SETTLING FOR LUSITANIA j Marked Revulsion of Sentiment in the German Capital as to Submarines. Berlin, .Tan. 12.— Dispatches from the United States announcing the settlement of the outstanding differences between Germany and the United States are featured in all the morning newspapers. The telegrams reproduce liberally the favorable comment of the American newspapers, but give virtually no details regarding the basis of settlement. The Foreign Office is able to add little enlightenment to the situation, as it has us yet received no dispatch from Count von Rernstorff on I he conclusion of the negotiations. The details of the settlement were left largely In his hands. It is assumed here, however, that the settlement of the problem arising out of the Mediterranean campaign was far easier than the Lusitania problem, because the Foreign Office was able to take the stand that the campaign in the Mediterranean was waged under different conditions than in the war zone proclaimed around the British The Mediterranean was never proclaimed a war zone. The Foreign Office was able, therefore, to inform Washington that all the customary ante-bellum naval regulations and prize rules applied to warfare on commerce The phraseology of the formula in the Lusitania case settlement is unknown here. Connt von Bernstorff was allowed considerable latitude: but it is understood that Germany's expression of retret was to be coupled with an explanatory reference to the retaliatory features of the submarine campaign as justificaThe settlement is regarded here as a great personal victory for Count von Bernstorff and Chancellor von Betlimann.

CONSTRUCTION 1 COMPANIES Stone Harbor is nothing if not up to date, on paper, at any rate. , Our esteemed contemporary, the ' "Cape May County Gazette," . under date of December 34, 1 states that timber is piling up along the beach front for the boardwalk and that Contractor 1 Botwright says that the machinery will he shipped in time for beginning work with the New Year. To date work has not begun, but in the immortal language of the well-known Dr Munyon, "There is hope." The same paper in its Stone Harbor column under date of January 7, makes the statement that "The boardwalk is begun," offering in evidence the astounding announcement that "Mr. Marshall, superintendent of construction, brought his family from Philadelphia 011 Monday and has them located at the Seaman-Letzkus cottage." All this is very convincing, and it is to be hoped that said family consists of several children to help fill our grand new school house. Stone Harbor residents are looking to the Franklin Con- j struct ion and Engineering Company to make good and build a I boardwalk worth while. Mr. Bot- 1 wright, while heretofore conduct- 1 ing a small business at his own j home in West Philadelphia has j always enjoyed the respect and 1 good-will of his neighbors, there- j fore Stone Harbor has good rea- j son to expect a square deal, for [ it has been stated tha.t Mr. John j Botwright is not only president \ and treasurer but also manager ' of the Franklin Construction and Engineering Company. Holding , the three most important offices, j a man of Mr. Botwright's repu- I tation should be able to hold anv 1 Board of Directors in submitssion. Naturally, it is the busi- J ness of a Board of Directors tc direct the workings of any asso- ; ciation over which they rule | \\ hen all work together foi j the good of the cause, success crowns their efforts, but when selfish motives creep in and the . main cause is lost sight of, disaster often follows. Now that the bonds have been brought up I and the contract given out, all residents of Stone Harbor unite in wanting the best boardwalk 1 the money can build and wish 1 success to the company who un- S dertakes the enterprise. There j1 have been so many failures to * up to contracts in the town > that the inhabitants would cheer J fully crown with . the laurel } wreath of victory any man who v gave them a good, square, hon est deal. - J What a catastrophe it would prove should the calamity which ;i has just overtaken the Beach ® Haven Construction Company 1, visit any company connected > with our town ! y A news item published in the t. Philakfelphia Evening Bulletin J' pf January II, states that cred- p itors of Beach Haven Construe- ® tion Co. present claims. State ie Senator Thomas A. Mathis. " Ocean County, N. J., today filed 1 bond for 830,000 in the* Camden Chancery Court as receiver ^ for the Beach Haven, N. J., Con- -v struction Company. |-j V ice Chancellor Learning has « given the creditors three months 81 to file their claims. The con- c( -truction company has a big gen- 5' -ral store at Beach Haven and u does building and road construetion work. The company built a d ?even-mile automobile boulevard ?' from Barnegat City Junction to {Ji Reach Haven as contractors for the township, but did not build JJJ the two-mile bridge over Little th Egg Harbor Bay 'that links the £ boulevard. The bridge was built tl bv another contractor. P' Application for a receiver was ki made yesterday in behalf of Wil- sl liam Mercer Raird, of Beach t Haven and this citv. and other L :reditors. The Reach Haven in Realty Company is not involved n the litigation and is a distinct ?' :oncern from the construction a< :ompany.

ft GIFT OF GRAVEL , A gift of gravel has overtaken 1 one resident of Stone Harbor, and the recipient is naturally delighted — much too delighted to i ask whence came the gravel. For several years the "gift of gab" lias been lavished upon her, but at last real gravel was spread upon her sand, not because it was promised, because "Promising Howard" was not guilty of that. He publicly stated that the company could not be expected to spread gravel upon any lots and all must agree with him that it is top much to expect. Nevertheless, this favored lady did receive a gift of gravel. She was in sad need of some ballast to keep her lot on the plan, for it was fast blowing away. She has suffered in gentle * silence from unkept promises ever since she took up her abode at Stone Harbor. While she may not be interested in whence the gravel came, it is possible that she will feel a lively interest in where it went, after March winds accomplish their usual work. In the meanwhile, there may be others who have a vital interest in , whence her gravel came. 1 1 did not come from the gravel pits near the Country Club. At a fall meeting of Borough Council permission was granted the superintendent to order gravel as needed, no restrictions being made as to how or where the gravel should be used. Is it a possibility that said superintendent in the kindness of his heart, urged on by the promisers of unpromises is responsible for the gift of gravel? If so, the pays for the gravel, which means that the taxpayer's money is used for it, which in turn, that a sort of • puna'tirm .gift v. made 4<> rfie iady to help keep her property on the map. She donated herself. If she is pleased, all the rest should be rejoiced that each has had a part in making her happy. Does any one else want gravel around his property? Well, just buy it and have it spread, but be careful to wait until after blustery March has blown itself out. The lady has no sewer connection as yet but she has plenty of promises stored away that she will get it. Mow, then, if gravel comes without promises, why should not sewers come which are backed numerous promises? Just the same old petticoated-siss answer, 'because." In the Spring City High School, Superintendent Isaac Doughton, ot the PhoelixTille pnblic schools, gave a talk on coai ind coal miniDg. Superintendent Doughion's father was a miner, and he hlmielf was in his youth a breaker boy. i ointiug to a picture allowing a group if slate pickers at work, he said : "That's he way I started In life. At 10 years if age I persuaded my mother to Jet me ;o to work In the breaker. She eoncnted. trusting that I would tire of it nd quit.
