If we may judge of the enjoyment
and keeping of Thanksgiving by the
number of turkeys this year, then
certainly nearly everyone will be hav
ing a good day of it. We fear, how
ever, it is too much the nature of the
birds to stay in flocks, and a great
many of us will have to wait for bet
ter times. It is reported that one of
the instructors at the Teachers' Insti
tute should have said that many peo
ple sit down to the table on that day
expecting to give thanks by making
pigs of themselves. There, are many
of whom that cannot be said, al
though there is, doubtless, a world of
truth in the statement.
Mr. J. W. Kanouse, the photo
grapher, passed through this section
with his camera last week, taking the
views of some of the principal places
and the schools in particular. The

but he is said to do some very neat
work.
The past week has been very cold
here among the foothills of the moun

Messrs. James Shultz and I. W.
Fritz went on an expedition up
Painter Run last week to look after
the deer. They must be doing pretty
well, for the boys came back without
any of them. Perhaps they will look
after them again, ere long, and be
able to make a more definite report.

Favorite Prescription. If she's over

a powerful, invigorating tonic and

many years, in nil cases of " female
complaints" and weaknesses. For
Joung girls just entering woman

trio from Plymouth, consisting of the
following named gentlemen: Messrs.
Harris, Moss and Ransom. The
Plymouth gents took eighteen or
twenty fine birds and four rabbits,
mountain rabbits. Going down on the
early train Saturday morning Mr.
Smith, from Carbondale, discovered a
yellow-legged bird in the lot, when
some one remarked it was an English
variety, imported to this section from
some one belonging to the Big 4, in

seemed to pass a very pleasant week.

WHO WIIL UArTtJRE IT?
THE PARDEE CAR WORKS HEWING
FOR A LOCATION.
In speaking of the removal of the
Pardee Car Works from W'.ilsontown
Editor Lewis Fosnot has the following
to say in his weekly Jleeord and Star:
"The Williamsport papers announce
that the Board of trade of that city
are negotiating with the Pardee estate,
through the agent here, S. B. Morgan,
for the purchase of the Watsontown
Car shops and their removal to Wil
liamsport. As is known the Pardee
estate is anxious to get rid of the car
shops here, and not long since Mr.
Morgan gave our Board of Trade an
opportunity to purchase them. This
offer onr people were unable to con
sider for very good reasons and the
shops a-e now on the market. While
we regret to see any of our industries
taken away, there seems to be no
available remedy in this case. It is
evident to all who give the matter a
thought that they cannot be operated
with success here, owing largely to
lack of railroad facilities, and as they
have been more of a detriment than a
benefit to the prosperity of our town
since they have been established here,
the only conclusion left is that it will
be for the good of the town if they
are removed, thus giving room for a
permanent and more suitable indus
try." Williamsport is still on the lookout
for the works, but their capitalists are
rather shy and do not appear to be
very eager to buy the plant. If any
Sunburians are desirous of investing
their spare capital in a good thing they
have a chance. Of course it will cost
considerable money to have the plant
removed from Watsontown. It would
require new buildings and new ma
chinery, but by the organization of a
stock company the necessary sum
could probab'y be raised. Since the
slump of the Sunbnry Nail, 1'ar and
Guide Iron company Sunbury invest
ors are cautious and prefer to keep
their cash in safe places. S. B. Mor
gan, Superintendent of the car works
at Watsontown, is authorized by the
Pardee estate to negotiate for the sale
of the plant. It is rumored that the
Jackson and Woodin Carcomp.ny of
Berwick has an eye on the ivatson
town works and will probably add it
to their establishment. It also would
be a big addition to the Murray and
Dougal Car Works at Milton. The
removal of the plant is only a question
of time and it looks as if WiUiamsport
would succeed in being the lucky cap
tor of the big industry. Sunbury
