Henry Clay, the "mill boy of the
slashes", was one of seven children
of a widow too poor to send him to
any but a country school, where he
was drilled in the "three Rs." But
he used every spare moment to
study without a teacher, and in
after years he was king among self
made men. The boy who had
learned to speak in a barn with only
a cow and a horse for an audience,
became one of the greatest Ameri
can orators and statesman.

Think of it! The parent who
thinks nothing of losing her patience

her own children, expects the
teacher to control her temper and

his house is plain and unpretend

was in a log cabin. Don't snub a
boy because of the ignorance of his
parents. Shakespeare, the world's
greatest poet, was the son of a man
who was not able to write his own
name. Don't snub a boy because he
chooses a humble trade. The author
of " Pilgrim's Progress " was a
tinker. Don't snub a boy of physi

Don't snub a boy because of dull

Will Tight Rural Free Delivery.
A concerted movement against
the continuance ot the rural mail
delivery system in its present char
acter has been started by organiza-.
Hons ot business men and mer
chants all over the country, says
Fourth Ivstate. The men in these
organizations will protest to Con
gress against the extension of the
present system and will advocate its
curtailment along sweeping lines.
It is understood that the system
has never been pronouncedly popu
lar with business men and opposi
tion against it has become more
pronounced than ever recently on
account of the exposure of some of
the uses to which it'has been put
and especially since the publication
of Postmaster-General Wynne's
estimate of the extensions autho
rized by Congress for the coming
year.
I he class of business men who
are supposed to be the most direct
ty hurt by the rural tree delivery
system are the merchants. Through
the operation of the system they
are said to be more than ever ex
posed to the competition of the mai
order houses and they declare that
111 many sections the farmers have
stopped coming to town to buy since
the establishment of the rural free
delivery routes. This, of course,
reacts on the jobbers aud whole
salers in the large cities, and the
result is that the trade of both city
ana country has suffered severely.

Announcement was made in Sha-

M. II. Kulp may cause a postpone
ment for a year of the proposed
construction of the electric railway
link between Shamokin and Sun

ed, do not want to tie up a million
and a half of dollars unless they

be speedily built, and this seems
