Winning Stork Fails To Make Ap¬ pearance As Yet
At the time of going to press the stork has not made his ap¬ pearance in Nazareth so far
this month, therefore, we can¬ not make announcement of the prize wlimer this week.
It m.ay be ti.at he will not visit Nazareth until after Nov¬ ember 8th. due to political reasons. Also, this may not be a bad plan. We'll all know then whether it will be a Dem- ocart or a Republican winner.

MASqiERADE PARTY
Mrs. Raymond Christman enter¬ tained the members of her clu'o at a masquerade party at her home on, Belvidere street on Friday evening. The evening was pleasantly sp'Ut playing "500", after which a lun¬ cheon was served by the hostess Prizes at cards were awarded.

The speaker was recently admitted to the practice of law in th-? Nor¬ thampton County courts and spok-- on the subject of ""Law."" He inc-n- Itoiied the four phases of law, the origin of law, its development and how it is administered and explain¬ ed the difference between statu'tOry law and the common or uiiwritte:". law. He traced the development of law from its English origin to the present time and explained the d.f- ferenc-? in moral and civil law-,.
"It pa.vs to advertise" Is a slogan never to be downed by any man. The Nazareth Brick Company has not lost sight of this fact ana -iw« erect»d one of the most attractive highway signs along the Nazareth- Bethlehem route that may be had. Tnis advertising monument, as It may be called. Is constructed of their own manufactured material and is built to la.st. The designing was done by Carl Snyder, architect, of Bethlehem. It Is located only a mile south of the Borough line.
The company intends to erect such a sign along all the main highways leading Into Nazareth and is aoer erecting a second one alcmg the Nazareth-Easton pike at Hollo. This one will have the garden wall eflect, dosigned by A. D. Chidsey. architect, of Easton and will be completed in about ten days.
Not only do thess signs advertise brick, but Nazareth and one of the products manufactured here as weU. Both of these designs are unique and give the ordinary layman an entire¬ ly new idea on brick construction end its many uses. We want to com¬ pliment The Na?.arelh Brick Com¬ pany in their Initiative in this move¬ ment and hope more of our industri¬ es help the cans- of Nazareth in a like manner.
