If it is to bene fit some individual, he may fairly ex pect to pay something. You do not go into a grocery and ask the proprietor to hand you out ten pounds of sugar for nothing, even though the grocer may be a personal friend and even though the gift might not be a large one. If the beneficiary of advertising does not pay for it, the proprietor has to settle the bill. Nevertheless many people cannot seem to learn, that a newspaper pays its expenses by renting space, and that it is just as much en- titled to collect rent for every day that space is occupied as you are for the house you rent to a tenant. Most newspapers expect to treat re- ligious and philanthropic enterprises liberally, yet in spite of this many of these enterprises expect the newspa- per to give them space rent free, while they carry their -job printing to some other shop. The place for them to look for support/ is the place they patronize. Religious organizations, we are sor- ry to say, are the worst offenders in this line that we have to deal with. We believe that. we are just as good Christians, and are just as generous as the average merchant on the street. We therefore cannot understand why we are repeatedly besought to give away our~goods, by people wSb would never think of begging cream from the milkman or coffee from the grocer.— Gouverneur, (N. Y.) Free Press. The Wayne County Board of Super- visors held a special meeting Saturday to settle the matter of the salary of the County Sealer of Weights and Measures to which we referred in our last issue. E. Fred Cowles of this Village whose services have been so satisfactory to the Board secured the reappointment and his salary was fixed at $1,200 per year out of which he is to defray all expenses except printing .matter and postage which is allowed by .the county. His bond was fixed at $1,Q00 which was furnished. It whs decided to purchase a suitable wagon and a sufficient amount of weights and measures to make the county set complete. A matter of great interest and impor- tance to the welfare of the county was officially brought to the attention of the Board when a resolution by Supervisor Reeves was presented calling for a com- mittee of three t o be appointed by the chairman of the Board for the purpose of investigating the advisability of erecting a Tuberculosis Hospital in Wayne County. The resolution was adopted. A discussion on the resolution showed that the Board is in favor of advanced science. The committee ap- pointed to continue the investigation consists of Supervisors Reeves, Gris- wold and Little. They will report at the next session of the Board. The clerk was instructed to draw or- ders for the salary of Janitor Schlee and for the supervisors of this special ses- sion. Checks are also to be drawn in favor of the collectors in school district No. 4, Lyons and Arcadia, for $53.91; for school district No, 6, Lyons, $138,46; No. ±r $13,084 JSoJWL_ilJ17^NQ.JL, $3.91, being reassessed school taxes. LOCAL ITEMS Church Notes. METHODIST About two hundred and fifty members of the Sunday school went to Grinnel's Glen last Friday and spent a very pleas- ant afternoon. Rev. Francis Strickland preached a very helpful sermon on Sunday morn- ing, basing his remarks on the incident of man born blind and the question of the deciples. \Wh o did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind,\ and the Saviour's reply, \Neither hath this man sinned, or his parents, but that the .works of God should be made manifest in him\ . The deciples were like many deciples of this day, looking only for some subject for dis- cussion while the master only saw an opportunity to manifest the works of God. Dr. Strickland is not a Newark boy, but we claim an interest in him as a few years ago he captured one of Newark's nicest girls, Miss Nettie Brown. They have been spending a short time at iter mother's on South.Ham. street, bift are now in Indianola, Iowa, where he will take up his work as President of Simpson College. The Mosher Bible Class had a very pleasant time on Wednesday afternoon. About twenty members took the trolley and stopped at No. 42.

Church at Lyons will preach at the morning service in exchange with Dr. Mosher. DEATHS. FRANK RASCH.

Some time ago this.agency decided to add life insurance to it s other, lines.

When the decision' was hanging fire a letter was sent to an old life insurance agent in Syracuse who was known to be absolutely reliable, asking him what' company\ he deemed the best. He did not know th e object of the question, so the answer was in-* tereSling. It was a s follows: \The Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company^ of 'Newark,. New Jersey, is ttt&bestoomi pariy writing insurance.

Besides his widow, a daughter, Mrs. Irving Richmond, of New York city and a sister, Miss Jennie Miller of Mattewan survive. The fun- eral was held Sunday at the home with interment at Sodus.

In years gone by this was the favorite musical club of Wayne county and all of the members are now dead excepting those mentioned above. The telephone service has been get- ting gradually better since the consoli- dation was made. Th e difficulties at first could not be helped because of the large amount of detail necessary in con- necting the two systems. C. F , Frazer, Traffic manager, issued the following explanation:- \Thosale of The Inde- pendent Telephone Co. and the forma- tion of the Wayne Telephone Company has necessitated many radical changes in the system. Among these were changes in the telephone numbers, the switchboard, thelines [and cables, the offices, and temporary difficulties were found to arise. We expect the system to be perfect working order by th e middle of this week, and will endeaver t o give better service than .ever before.'' $500,000,000 was spent for soda water by the American public 'in 1909. It is said that all the automobiles built last year were worth only $135,000,000. The automobile manufacturers are giving out these two statements as an argu- ment showing that there has' not been undue' extravagance in th e purchase of automobiles. Newark has seventy-five automobiles which probably on the average cost $1,000 each.. If it takes $400 per year to repair and keep in re- pair an automobile, and if w e should add this amount to th e $75,000 spent for x automobiles, we see that Newark has spent over $100,000 in automobiles or about $17 each for every man, wo- man an d child in the village. \\This would buy 340 glasses ojE soda water for each person in the village and we doubt if that much has been spent for soda water during the past year. Some weeks ago we announced that Loon McKown, an old Newark boy,\ re- cently from Chicago, was in town perr feoting plans to establish a wholesale bakery.

The appraisers who were appointed by Referee in Bankruptcy Charles A. Hawley of Seneca Falls to appraise the property of the Lyons Beet Sugar Ra- fining Company finished their labors Wednesday.

The Wayne County Gas & Electric Co. has applied to the Village Board for Tt is now working under its present franchise granted to the New Light Heat & Power Co. which is good for about eight years more. I n placing its bonds the com- pany finds that it will be more conven- ient to have its franchise for a longer term. Th e Village Board should give this matter serious consideration. At Buffalo Monday, William B. Hotchkiss, owner of the private bank In Phelps which recently closed its doors, filed a bankruptcy petition with Clerk Petrie of the United Starts Dis- trict Court. The schedule filed with the petition showed that his liabilities amounted to $29,814.56, and his assets amounted to $31,629.36. Th e reason why he seeks bankruptcy is stated to be an inability to meet th e immediate claims that have been made.upon him. The Public Library has entered the voting contest conducted by the Roch- ester Herald and asks the townspeople to save their sales slips and either send or bring them to the library or give them to any member of the Newark Tigers, a baseball team that is working with the library. Sales slips or receipted bills from the leading Rochester mer- chants an d from ten of the - local mer- chants (the complete list is posted in the library) count as votes. The value of each slip or bill is doubled if it is at- tached to an-advertisement of the mer- chant in question, clipped from the Her- ald not over seven days old. Subscrib- ers to the Herald can help by keeping the back numbers of the papers so that the advertisements can be saved.
