The Pennsylvania Department of
Forestry expects to grow about 15,000,
000 trees for reforesting 10,000 acres
of waste land in this State from the
seed it is planting in its forest tree nur.
series this spring. All of the seeds
will be sowed by May 1. The Depart.
ment has collected 700 pounds of white
pine, hemlock, and black locust seed,
and 260 bushels of black walnuts, acorns,
and ash and maple seeds. Six hundred
and sixty pounds of pine, spruce, and
larch seed have been purchased by the
Department.
During the past week it has been dis-
covered that a thief has been operating
in the Centre Hall High school. Mon-
ey has been stolen from the girls of the
school ; one time a $5 bill was taken
from a purse lying in the desk, and lat-
er a check in the sum of $20 was taken.
Smaller amounts at various other times
bave been found missing, and a gold
pencil was taken from the drawer of a
teacher's desk. Considering the length
of time this practice has gone on unmo-
lested, it would appear that the guilty
ofie is gaining courage, as each time the
theft was an amount greater than the
preceding time, Such a practice, to
say the least, can have only a most un.
wholesome effect upon the entire school,
and it is the duty of the entire teaching
force to battle against this evil practice
until the guilty party shall have been
discovered and summarily expelled from
school, The offense calls for such ac-
tion,
THE DEATH RECORD.
