REBERSBURG.
Baccalauerate Sermon.— The annual
sermon before the graduates of the Miles
township High school was this year given
by Rev. Carns, in the Evangelical church.
The sermon was an able one. - The
church was filled and the service enjoyed.
. Jasper Brungart resigned asa school
director of Miles township, and Wallace
Crider has been appointed in his place.
This was a good appointment, as Mr.
Crider is one of our progressive and edu-
cated citizens. Weexpect much of him
as a local representative of the school
board.
‘We acknowledge with much pleasure
receiving several copies of the Pennsyl-
vania Justices Law Reporter, edited and
published by Willis Reed Bierley, of Nor-
ristown. The May issue has a very ex-
cellent view of the editor of said publi-
cation at his desk with several copies of
his own works on Pennsylvania law at
his side on the table. He looks like a
regular Solon of Pennsylvania law. We
congratulate him very highly, both his
majesty and his law magazine, which. is
the only one of the kind published and
very ably edited. Asan editor and as a
publisher he is surely in his element.
. SUMMER ScHOOL.— There will be a
summer school’ at Rebersburg for ten
weeks opening May 22nd and closing July
28th. The object of the school is to pre-
pare and review teachers for the late
teacher’s examinations, to prepare stu-
dents to enter college, to afford those
who have only a three-year High school
course an opportunity to take the fourth
High school year so that they can enter
college this year, if possible, to give High
school students a chance to take new
courses and review old ones by way of
making up back work, and to prepare
and review grammar grade pupils to
enter the High school, and do back work.
Special attention will be given to ‘private
tutoring in High school and College sub-
jects. Classes in carpentry and sewing
will also be taught in order to enable
boys to do some necessary repairing at
home and teach girls how to make their
own dresses. The principal, H. E. Bierly,
will be assisted by able and experienced
teachers.
THE TownsHIP ROAD ROLLER— The
steam roller which the road supervisors
of Miles township bought is giving fine
satisfaction. Many of our citizens
thought the new steam roller was for
merely rolling but they have since learn-
ed differently. The new steam roller
does not merely do rolling work but also
the work of a threshing engine, namely:
Supplies power to crush stones, pull the
road scraper and the cultivator. It does
all the work which a threshing engine
did, and in addition does the rolling. It
is just what the road supervisors needed.
They now can make roads when they
please. This engine, which is a Buffalo-
Pitt make, has two cylinders, and is the
finest piece of engine workmanship in
our valley. It is a pleasure to see it work
and run the road machinery. The road
supervisors will be sure to use all the
road machinery sufficiently so that the
township will get good returns for the
money invested. We can now look for
still better roads. Miles township is now
far ahead of any township near here, in
the matter of good roads and the latest
machinery for making roads. Our citi-
zens should go and see for themselves
how the new steam roller does all these
things. Ed. Frankis the foreman. He
says it is the “finest thing he ever saw
or handled,” and Ed. knows engines.

We wish to note that the addresses of
the graduates were very well prepared
and delivered, there not being a single
hesitation. The above list of High school
speakers also constitute the list of
graduates. The annual address was given
by Prof. John Frizzell, of the department
of English, Pennsylvania State College,
in place of Prof. Marshman, who could
not come. Professor Frizzell had for his
theme “Physical, Mental and Spiritual
Preparedness.” His rather informal ad-
dress was practical and much appreciated
by the audience. The church was crowd-
ed by people from all parts of Brush-
valley and some from Pennsvalley. We
are glad that our own people are so much |
interested and attended the commence--
ment exercises so well.

An affection confined to women must
have its cause in the womanly nature.
There is no doubt that a diseased con-

is in general responsible for feminine
nervousness and an undermined con-

For headache, backache, hot flashes,
catarrhal condition, bearing-down sen-

box of Doan’s Kidney Pills and get
relief. Another of the family has
