LOCAL AND GENERAL INTELLIGENCE VOL. XXX NAZARETH, PA, THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 6, 1921. No. 45 DICKEN'S FELLOWSHIP HELD FIRST MEETING IN MORAVIAN CHURCH Eighth Season Opened Tues¬ day Evening—Elwood bnangst Speaker The Nazareth Branch of the Dick¬ ens Fellowship held the first meet¬ ing ot its eighth season, 1921-1922, in the social rooms of the Moravian I Church on Tuesday evening, Octoher 4. Tables very beautituliy decorat¬ ed with the flowers of the season welcomed the members who had hi ought a picnic luncheon for them¬ selves and their invited guests. Coftee was served by the entertain¬ ment committee of the Fellowship, There was a goodiy gathering not¬ withstanding that there were other ciitside interest which prevented many from attending. The company sat down to the tabl¬ es a la Historical Vesper, and the rest of the evening was conducted on the same plan, Dicltens' American Notes wiil he studied tliis winter and the Rev, Chas. D. Kreider gave a short talk on some of the interest¬ ing points of the boolci, just enough to whet the edge of our curiosity and make us want to know the rest, Mrs. Florence Urockman, the pre¬ sident, gave a short account of her visit to the Convict Ship "Success," exhibited in Ntw York this past sum¬ mer. This was of especial interest to those who had read "Great Expecta¬ tions" with the Fellowship last year. The principal speaker of the even¬ ing, Mr. EilwooJ Unangst, toid of his "Trip Across and Experiences During the Great War Over There." Mr- Unangst visited Marseilles, where the plot of "Little Dorrit" is laid. The evening was too short for ali that was of interest to be toid, and the hour for adjournment came ail too soon- Seven new members joined the P'eiiowship and an interesting winter is looked forward to. The Fellow¬ ship wiil be glad to welcome others at any time who may wish to join. There is a charm about Dickens V hicli draws and holds, otherwise in¬ terest could not hold out for eight successive years. Emphasis should be laid upon the fact that membership in the Feiiow- ship is not limited to Dickens "fans." Ail that is required is that the appli¬ cant for membership posses (1) one or raore ot the cliaracteristics summ¬ ed up in the lino from "American Notes," "genial, jovial, frank, social cr hearty:" and that he or she is ai¬ so willing to part with not less than tv/enty five cents per year to be ex¬ pended for tho general good of hu¬ manity through the offlce of the Treasurer ot the Fellowship. Has Ratification Of Bond Issue Solved Our School Problem? The Fact That Citizens Have Authorized An In¬ crease In the Indebtedness Has Not Solved School Problem, Is Claimed by Interested Taxpayers Received Welcome News From China Wilmer Wolf received a letter from his sister. Miss Helen, that she arrived safe at Shanghl, China, and would enter school at once at Nan- tang. This news was surely re¬ ceived with great pleasure by her I'lany friends in town and vicinity. It wiil be remembered that Miss Wolf had prepared herself for mis¬ sionary work and was assigned to the far off fields in China for a term of years. Steward Itterly, Mrs. Matiida Itterly, Mrs. Eliza Johnson and Mr. and Mrs. James Paul motored to Valley Forge and other interesting points enroute on Sunday- The fact that the citizens of Naz¬ areth have authorized an increase in the indebtedness ot the School Dis¬ trict has not by any means solved the school problem that confronts the Borough ot Nazaretli. This only shows that the citizens of Nazareth realize that a serious condition exists, and aa always, are willing to provide the funds to rem¬ edy the condition. Let us not as¬ sume the attitude that the 437 whi' voted "Yes" were "All Right" and the 371 who voted "No" were "Ail Wrong," but let us study the situa¬ tion carefully, endeavor to interpret public sentiment and learn a lesson from the citizens of Nazareth, When the majority is overwhelm¬ ing or in other words when the op¬ position is neglibie it may not be erroneous perhaps to assume that the opposition is "wrong" but when tho majority is as small as it was in this case, the question deserves careful consideration. It seems to the writer, it his in¬ terpretation of public sentiment is correct, that the 437 who voted "Yes" realized that something had to be done to relieve the situation, and had confidence in the members ot the School Board to adopt the proper solution to our school prob- len-s,—that the 371 who voted "No" also realized that something had to be done but were not convinced that tlie proper solution had been offered to solve the problem. If the writ¬ er's reasoning is correct it is clear¬ ly evident that a proper solution will unite the "Yeas" and Nays" and we will all get together and work together for the beneflt of the children in Nazareth. We did our share and sometimes more for all worthy causes during the war, and we wiil surely do the right thing for Nazareth after we once understand each other and work together for the same results we wili attain the desired results and be glad of it. Let Us be careful to develop a co¬ operative community spirit instead ot an antagonistic spirit, in other words do not assume that you are "All Right" and the other fellow la "Ail Wrong." Let us rather remem¬ ber that There is so much good in the worst of us And so much bad in tho best of us That it hardly behooves any of ua To talk about the rest of us. Offer only constructive criticism and do not "knock" only for the sake of "knocking." The worid is full of cranks but it needs a host ot self-starters. Let us profit by past mistakes, look to the future and endeavor to solve our school prob- Itms for the next ten or twelve years. It is a big problem, diflJcuit tc solve and concerns every tax-pay¬ er's pocketbook. The School Board has been auth¬ orized to create a 7 percent in¬ debtedness; in other words, borrow- as mucli money as the law wiil per- nit under any conditions at the present assessment. The question is, how shall we spend our money to solve our school problem for the next ten or twelve years, hecauae we wili not be able to borrow, but must raise any additional funds by taxa¬ tion during that period. We must put our house in order and then keep houae. It a new High School solves the problem, then build it, but do not develop "High Schoolitis" and build oniy a High School just for the sake of building a High School. We must remember that we have about S5 percent ot our pupils in the grades and only about 15 percent in High School. The grades are crowded two rooms in each grade, part ot the first grade is on halt time, which means we have enough pupils in first grade tor three rooms, which would naturally indicate that an ad¬ ditional room would be required in the grades under present conditions each year for the next eight years. The "calamity howler" will say that the population ot Nazareth wili not increase because nearly every- (Continued On Page Pour) PAPER READ AT THE ANNUAL VESPER OF HISTORICAL SOCIEH 'Museum Values"—A Relic of Founders—Notable Contri¬ butors—Maps and Relics SCHOEXECK MOK.AVI.AN COX- GKEGATION CELEBRATED ITS 1.51) BII{THI).\Y Dr .\.

CELEDRATED GOLDEN WEDDINyN SUNDAY Observe Matrimonial Day With Relitaves and Friends At Nazareth Fair Grounds Mr, and Mrs. Israel Heyer, of Nazareth, celebrated tbeir golden wedding anniversary on Sunday with a large gathering ot relatives and friends in the Nazareth fair grounds, Mr. and Mrs Heyer were married in 18'71, at Bath, hy Rev, Fox. On the occasion. Rev. George Kleckner delivered an address at noon, and Rev, W. H. Wotring D. D., delivered an address iate in the afternoon. About 200 people turned out to attend the celebration. Tables wero set in the restaurant rooms ot the fair grounds with ali tho best eats for sucii an occasion. Music was furnished by the Melody Boys, ot town. Their friends gath- e'-ed trom far and wide, coming fiom New York, Philadelphia, Beth¬ lehem, Easton and surrounding dis¬ tricts. Mr- and Mrs, Heyer are enjoying perfect health at their old age- They are the parents of six children —three sons and three daughters, as follows: David Heyer, of Nisky; John Heyer, of Moorestown; Her- h.'rt Heyer, ot Easton; Mrs. Clinton Kern, ot Kerndale; Mrs. L. F- Kram- l.ch, ot New York, and Mrs, Harry Cooley, of Nazareth, Also twenty grand children and four great grand children.

Mr. Wilhelm wis born at Nazareth a'ul spent his hoy^iood days here and lil well remembered by our older folks. Ho ia now ninety-one years old and hia wife is eighty-six. The year 1921 marks a departure tor our Society and its -Museum- The minutes ot the earlier annual meet¬ ings record that when it 4.15 o'clock the proceedings of the Ves¬ per had ended, "the company spent some time in examining the Mu¬ seum)."' Recent Vespers, by their popularity, have quite eclipsed the Museum, and obscured any proper conception of its value to the work ot a Historical Society, Happily, we may return this year to the earlier practice. In an address before the Associa¬ tion ot Museums the president took occasion to say that out of a total ol" 600 museums in the United States, only flve apent $1000 annually, and that those wliose lesources are less "cannot be well cared tor or givo effective service to the people. It is largely due he continues, "to these ill-cared for accumulations to which no arrangement has been given that wiil make them speak their meaning and which have no one to interpret it, that the word "museum" has come in the minds ot the people to stand for a storehouse of curious dead things inter^ting chiefly to specialiats and having very little re¬ lation to human lite. To our Mu¬ seum the opportunity la presented of enriching the lives and inspiring the ideals ot ail classes ot society, and in so tar as they succeed in do¬ ing this they will contribute to the realization ot what we hope to make America express," It is in line with these suggestions that this paper is compiled and presented. A Relic of the Founders of the Society. In the records ot the meetings of the Society in 1S57 and 1S5S we find that the aspiiing genius ot the men ot that day proposed to put the Society they were organizing on the map, "when as yet there was none oC it" To accomplish this, in part at least, they nominated and elect¬ ed as honorary members s'ome of the illustrious men ot their time; among them the President ot the United States, the Hon. James Buchanan, and his Secretary of State, Gen. Lewis Cass, with other political cele¬ brities; Washington Irving, other authors, college [residents, doctors ot divinity, and other citizens more or less noted. The tliought that acknowledgments ct some at least ot theae gentlemen might have been expected led to search which was rewarded by finding 47 letters, all aiitographs. Theae have been gath- eied in to a scrap book as a special e-ihibit tor this occasion. Among t';em, worthy ot mention is one dat¬ ed May 22, 1S60, modestly signed "E. H." with regard to the monu¬ ment over the resting place ot the remains of Buettner, Pine Plains, Dutchess county, N. Y., apparently an early, if not the first response in an effort to erect some permanent memorial to our missionaries, the flrst ot its kind. The minutes ot the nieeting of the Society, held July 11, 1S59, contain the following: "It having been represented to the Society that certain of its mem¬ bers had recently visited Shekomeko in Dutchess couaty, N. Y., and Wechquatnach iu Litchfield county, scenes ot the taitlitul labors ot Bro. Buettner at the former, aud Broth¬ ers Bruce and Powell at the latter place, as early missionaries among the Indians, and tiiat the remains ot these pious men repose in graves from which the stones have been re¬ moved, but of which the exact posi¬ tion is known; therefore Resolved, that with a view to cherish the meaiory of good men and their deeds, suitable and perma¬ nent monuments to the^ memory ot Brothers Buettner, Bruce and Pow¬ ell be erected at Shekomeko und Wechquatnach, and that the follow¬ ing members, wit i power to add to their number, be appointed to col¬ lect the necessary funds and to su¬ perintend the erection thereof." This preamble and resolution, pre¬ sented by Bro, Granville Henry was unanimously adopted The names (Continued On Page Two) Christ Church Re-dedicated in Moore Township Sunday Each of Three Special Services Finds Church Crowded—Rev. Erdman, of Nazareth, Is Pastor of Lutheran Congregation Favored with a beautiful autumn¬ al day the re-dedication services that were held at the Christ Church in Moore Township on Sunday drew a crowd of more than a thousand persons The church was tnrice packed with people eager to hear the inspiring programs that were rendered in the morning after¬ noon and evening. The church is commonly known as Dieter's church and dates its history back to the year 1829 when the congregations were organized. In 1830 ground was broken for the church which stood until the present church was erected in the year 1852 and which has now been remodeled. There was hardly any change made to the exterior of the building but the in¬ terior of the ediflce has been chang¬ ed entirely. The church as it was had no basement. The building is very tail and when it was decided to change and the committee waa appointed, which included the con¬ sistories of both the Reformed and Lutheran congregations, the plan ot putting in an additional floor waa agreed on. A floor elevated about ten feet above the main floor was put in and the main auditorium is now on the second floor. In the basement a hot air heater waa in¬ stalled. This part of the building is now used as a Sunday School room On each side of the building stair¬ ways lead to the second floor which has been equipped with new pews, new chancel and altar and the pipe organ has been moved there trom the first floor. The organ has undergone renovations and makes a beautiful appearance. The Genco electric lights have been installed with beautiful chandeliers. This is something seldom seen in country churches. The interior throughout has been treated with a new coat oi paint. The church is located in the upper end of Northampton County on an elevated spot within about three miles distance of the Blue Moun¬ tains- The name Dieter was derived trom Conrad Dieter and Ilia three sona, David, Benjamin and Jonas, who lived in the section surrounding the church and who had always taken an active part in its a^airs. Rev. J. E. Smith, of Bath, is the p.istor ot the Reformed wing bf the congregation, and Rev. A. E. Erd¬ man, ot Nazareth, is the pastor ot the Lutheran congregation. The organist is Mrs. Emma Anthony. The congregations have a large choir that sang at the three services- In the morning Professor Conrad S. Smith gave a prelude on the organ. The choir favored with an anthem- Pev, I. M. Bachman, of Northamp¬ ton, delivered the sermon and Edwin Parthoiomew favored with a vocal sclo In the afternoon the main dedi¬ catory services were held. The Revs. P. A. Behier, ot Aiientown, George P. Kopenhaver, ot Cherry¬ ville, spoke at these services. The dedicatory services were held with the pastors ot both congregations taking part. Miss Marion Mcll¬ haney accompanied b y Edward Schwab favored with soprano solo. Master Gilbert Bartholomew sang and Rev. W. U. Helffrich, ot Bath, got in the pledges. Pledges were received payable in a year's time and when the figures for the three services are compiled they wiil show a neat sum. In the evening Prof Norman Pchafer, of Danielsville, gave an or¬ gan prelude. Rev. George S Kleck¬ ner, of Nazareth, delivered the ser¬ mon and a musical recital was given by the Danielsville orchestra. P. P. Lynn, ot the Wanamaker Stores, who had been on the after¬ noon's program sent a letter of re- giet and enclosed a check tor $500 a? a payment toward the liquidation of the debt. The total cost of the rrfhiodeiiing is reported as running over the $15,000, ot which more than half has been raised. It was a day of home coming for nany of the former members and hundreds of machines could be seen parked near the church. Many had brought their lunch and spent the entire day there. On Tuesday evening at 7:30 (/clock the services were continued with Rev. J. G. Kerschner, of Palm¬ erton, deliveiins the sermon and the Petersville choir furnishing the s:nging selections. On this (Thurs¬ day) evening at 7:30 o'clock the services will be concluded with Rev. John W. Koch, of .-Vllentown, de¬ livering the sermon and th^ choir ol Snyder's church will render the vocal selections.
