    In Memory of Samuel Martin.
Resolutions in memory of Samuel A. Mar-
tin by St. Mark’s Sunday school,
WHEREAS, in the providence of God, our
brother S. A. Martin has been called from
our midst to his eternal home, and,
WHEREAS, he has been a life long member
of our Sunday school, therefore be it
Resolved, that we humbly bow to the will
of our Heavenly Father in this affliction,
knowing that wisdom and love mark all His
ways.
Resolved, also, that we record our high ap-
preciation of the pure, noble, faithful Chris-
tian life he lived among us and that though
we sadly miss his presence, his memory shall
abide with us an inspiration to every duty.
Resolved, further, that we as a school, ex-
tend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved
family in their loss of adevoted husband and
father and pray the God of all comfort, to
grant them consolation.
Resolved, that these resolutions be recorded
in the minutes of the school and published in
the county papers and also church paper.

On the morning of April 8th, Barbara, wife
of Isaac Reish, died at her home on the old
C. H. Struble farm near Pine Hall. Her
death was due to a complication of diseases
brought about by an attack of grip with
which she had suffered all winter. But
when the end came she calmly and peaceful-
ly fell asleep thus quietly closing what had
been a noble, Christian life and ending her
days of usefulness as wife, mother and
friend. Precious in the sight of the Lord is
the death of his saints of which she was
surely a bright one, for her pew was never
empty in his sanctuary and her good works
continued, day by day. Her pastor, Rev.
Aikens, officiated at the funeral, assisted by
Rev. A. A. Black. Deceased was the eldest
daughter of Amos Royer, deceased, who was
one of the pioneers along the White Hall
road. She is survived by her hushand and
two daughters, Mrs. Jacob Cramer, of Penn
Hall and Mrs. Collins Brungart, of Zion, and
and two sisters, Mrs. Sharer and Miss Han-
nah Royer. She was 64 years, 2 months and
8 days old. Her funeral, on Monday, was
largely attended.
The family desire to return thanks to
those who so kindly aided them during their
affliction.

ginning of this week, having had a serious
attack of pneumonia.
Mrs. F. O. Bairfoot will make some im-
provements on her house by the addition of

The auditor’s statement of the borough
finances is posted, and every tax payer can

phia and New York, whither she had gone

George Floray has leased the gravel and
sand pits along the pike on the mountain and

Colyer had a mishap with his large engine
at the station that did considerable damage
and will necessitate a few days delay of work
for the mill to make repairs.
Hoffer Dale is home from New York State,
where he has been since last fall. He was
called home on account of hissick father,

Prof. Wagonseller opened hisnormal school
Wednesday with an attendance of twelve
scholars, large and small. Miss Aunie Bar-
tholomew opened the same time with pupils
numbering over twenty, with more to follow.
F. A Foreman will begin his school next
week.
D. J. Meyer is in Alexandria, where his
son John taught a very successful term of
public school. Hon. A. K. McClure of the
Philadelphia Times is the principal speaker
at the commencement exercises of the Alex-
andria schools of which the junior Meyer is
principal, and it is to hear this flood of ora-
tory that the elder Meyer went over.
Boyd B. Wilson, of this place, and Gertrude
V. Wilson, of Beech Creek, were married
Thursday of last week. Mr. Wilson is con-
nected with the creamery at this place doing
business under the firm name of Howard
Creamery Co., which, by the way, is doing an
extensive business. The bride and groom
will take up quarters in one of the new Luse
houses.
Among the half dozen candidates for coun-
ty offices in town last week was H. A. Moore,
of Howard, for county treasurer, and asked
the undivided support of the Democrats at
the primaries. Mr. Moore is surely capable
and would treat all who happen to have busi-
ness with him in a most agreeable way. If
he is selected as the candidate his election
would be assured.
George W. Koch still has a notion that
Harrisburg would be a very agreeable place
to spend a winter or two asthe representa-
tive of Centre county in the State Legisla-
ture. Although a poor man, he would with-
out a doubt, place his honor so high that all
the proceeds from shaking the Quay plum
tree put together wouldn’t induce him to
vote for aught but Democratic principles and
Democratic candidates for the U. S. Sena-
torship.
The average attendance of the High school
was about ten for the term, the grammar
average was eighteen, and the intermediate
and primary each over thirty. For a good
part of the term the average of the interme-
diate and primary schools was close up to
forty. At no time was the combined average
attendance of High school and grammar
school above that of either the intermediate
or primary. The point wished to be de-
veloped is that assuming the schools were
properly graded the past term the directors
will of necessity have to add an additional
primary department. There will be quite a
number of children reaching school age be-
fore the next term opens. The wisdom of
continuing to crowd the primary departments
is surely questionable. It is not giving chil-
dren a fair show; it is not in accordance with
advanced ideas of the best public school sys-
tems.
From another point of view it cost on an
average of six dollars per capita in the High
school; one dollar and eighty cents in the
grammar; one dollar in the intermediate and
ninety cents in the primary department per
month to furnish instruction. It appears at
least reasonable that the smaller children
should receive a larger share of the money
expended for school purposes, and itis the
plain duty of the directors to make such ad-
ditions or alterations as will at least comfort-
ably situate every child in the primary de-
partment.
THE PuBLIic ScHOOLS.—The borough pub-
lic schools closed their seven months term on
Monday. The last few days of the term were
taken up in examinations for promotion.
There are about one hundred and thirty-five
children of school age in the town, but the
school report will show that not nearly this
number attended. Last fall a fourth school
was added, owing to the numerous and just
complaints that the primary departments
were too much hampered for room and proper
instruction. This was true, and when the
fourth grade was added considerable relief
was felt by those whose children attended
the junior schools. At the opening of the
term in the fall Prof. Wagonseller, principal,
graded the school. The number assigned to
each wasas follows: High school, fifteen,
instructor Prof. Wagonseller, with a salary
of $60.00 per month; grammar, twenty-two,
instructor D. W. Geiss, salary $33.00: inter-
mediate, forty-five, F. A. Foreman, instruc-
tor, salary $30.00; primary, forty-five, in-
structor Miss Anna Bartholomew, salary
$27.00.
