The lad waa acting suapiciously in the mouataina when he was picked up by Sergeant MaucV, of the Greenaburg aquad of State police.

He said he didn't wftnt the money dem;ind'>d In the letters, but merely desind to keep the flre warden and his flre- Jghters out  of the  mountains.
In order that tliere couid be no mistakes Ihe youth made the sworn statement. About the only thing he didn't admit was extinguishing the back fires in anotiier section of the Chestnut Ridge.

The No. 1 motor truck pump of the Cen¬ tral fire statlotti Easton, responded to a call ftif tielp, made a quick run over the Chestnut Hill route, and prevented the flames trom communi¬ cating to nearby buildings,/
Owen Wright, tho niirft watch¬ man, had punched tlie time clock at G oclock, and then gone to fix the furnace fire. When he returned he | discovered the flames, which were I already burning briskly, and gave the alarm.
When the Easton niotor pump ar¬ rived on the scene the building w:is already burned to the ground, so fiercely did the flames, fanned by a brisk wind, do their work. The fire¬ men laid about 12^0 feet of hose, pumping water from the Bushkill Creek. A pliitform at the edge ot the creek, built by Stockertown peo-

Passion Week services In the Mo¬ ravian Church were exceptionally well attended this year. The choir music under the leadership of tho organist, Mlss' Anna. M. Kern, was inspirational.
The early Easter morning service was well attended. The pastor. Rev. P. S. Melnert waa assisted by Kev. A. D. Thaeler, D. D.
The 10:30 a. m. service was well iittended. The . paBtor preached a sermon on "Eiister Revelation*" iind Miss Claire Wunderly sang creditably, "I Know That My Re¬ deemer Liveth."
Tlie Sunday-school In the after¬ noon was addressed by the pastor, iin offering of $406.76 wtis brought by the school for Foreign Missions. This is by far the largest offering ever given by the Sunday-school.
The closing service in the evening was   again     well    attended. The
pastor was assisted by Rev. Samael Allen, who offered the closing pray¬ er.
The offerings for Foreign Mission for fhe day amounted to $1349 and there will probably be more coming In.
This amount exceeds    last    year's
offering,    which    was    the    largest
known in the history of this congrc-

' dollars.

The Members of thc Society Have Worked Hard to Prepare For This Concert, and the Kcndilion Will ho the Best Ever Given.
The seventeenth concert to be giv¬ en by the Nazareth Choral Society, on April 13, 1920, bids fair to sur¬ pass any previous efforts in variety of program and excellence of rendi¬ tion. The choir has worked faith¬ fully and well during the last few months and their work will shcvw a degree of perfectio nnot heretofore attained.
The accompanying orchestra is composed of artists of their various instruments. The pubilc is promis¬ ed a special treat by the soloists whose work alone Is worth the price o f admission. Note particularly that this concert is given by local talent exclusively. Nazareth may- well be proud of this organization and it is hoped that the citizens will continue to give their loyal and generous support.
Tickets will be on sale at the Y. M. C. A. offlce on Friday, April 9, at 7 oclock p.  m.     Price 50 cents.

Almost solid Democratic opposition has developed In the house ag.Tinst the adopt-on of the Joint rtsolution to declare war with Germany at an end. It will be considered two years since the  declaration of war.
Sen.itor HitchocU declined to confirm or discuss leports that the President wa« considering the speedy return of the tre.ity to the sen.nte, but Indl- cat'-d that he had been in corre¬ spondence with Mr. Wilson during his aboence from Washington.
In msny well Informed quarters the Impression Is growing that either be. fore or more prob.ibly .ilong with a veto I" i-'iae the President m,iy re¬ turn the treaty to the sen.-ite with affirmative expressions regarding reservations.
