Andreivs To Atvait Action
of Grand Jury

Borgitti liad formerly worked for Kinney and', it was alleged, that more than a montli after his dis¬ charge, he returned and committed the burglary.
.Mr. Stephens, who lives with Kin¬ ney, studied the matter over care¬ fully and came to the conclusion that ;he job was done by someone ac- quainteil with the arrangement of tiio inside of the house and flnally, by ellniination, came to the conclu¬ sion that it was Borgitti, and secur¬ ing a warrant from .Mr. Andrews, justice of the peace at Nazareth, took it to .Allentown and left It with Offlcer James McFadden.

.\ Handsome Gift.
Tlie congregation received a very valuable and handsome gift at the morning service in the form of altar p-ingings and coverings. These consist of a beautiful hemstitched linen covering for the altar and a (Uep, magnificently designed hand -rocheted border all the way around tl.e large altar. The design of the border consists of a cup indicative of the Lord's Supper and a cross em¬ blematic of the sufferings of our Lord for the sins of the race. It is a n.ost artistic piece of work and must be seen to be appreciated. It re¬ quired twenty-five hundred yards of material and one year of solid work to complete the border. Tbe cover¬ ing is hand-embroidered with beau¬ tiful designs and hemstitched all the way around Involving an im¬ mense amount of work.
The border was made by Lizzie Altemose, the covering by Mrs. V. J. Koch   and   valuable    assistance     by
Karl Altemose. These three mem¬ bers presented this very acceptable and handsome gift to the congrega¬ tion, a very beautiful testimony to ¦heir loyalty to the congregation and to their desire to still further beau¬ tify their house of worship.
The gift was very graciously ac¬ cepted by the pastor In the name o( the congregation and Ihe heartiest and most sincere thanks were ex¬ tended to the kind donors.

The  various   reports    clearly proved that   all    the    organizations v.ere exceedingly active and that all the treasuries were in a very healthy condition.
The pastor's report very clearly indicated the marked progress that was made and outlined a course to le pursued to still (urther strength¬ en the con(erence and develop the efficiency of  the  congregation.

SECURE YOUR DOG LICENSE
Dog owners in Pennsylvania have until the fifteenth of this month to secure licenses (or their 4ogs. On and after January 16, a dog owner who has not complied with the law, v.ill be liable to prosecution, whether a license is subbequently secured or not.
The new Dog Law of 1921 gives the Department of -Agriculture full authority to enforce the law and its enforcement will be under the direc¬ tion of the Bureau of Animal Indus¬ try.
The state has been divided Into districts with a field man in charge of each district. It will be the duty Gi these men to see that the law Is enforced without fear or favor.
Since the act of 1917 was passed there has been a growing tendency on the part of dog owners to comply with the law and officials of the De¬ partment of Agriculture hops that it will not be necessary to order whole¬ sale prosecutions throughout the state before a general observance uf tlie new- law is secured.
Dog licenses can be secured trom the county treasurer or through any justice of the peace or other magis¬ trate who has secured the necessary application blanks from the treasur- e.-. The justice of the peace or magistrate must forward auch appli¬ cations to the county treasurer, to¬ gether with the proper remittance, as the treasurer alone has the license tags.
