Lnit Sabbath afternoon, In company with
Mr. Wm. Oswald, or Wcissport, we rode to
Big Creek, and visited tho Evangelical Sun
day school of the above named place. The
tcsilon was opened by the Superintendent,
David Snyder, by singing a hymn entitled
"Idlers to Work J" proyer was offered, and
nnothor hymn was eung, after which the
lesson was rend alternately by the Superin
tendent and school. The lesson study was
then engaged in, after which another hymn
was sung, and Nathan Solt, the Assistant
Superintendent, In IhoabsencoorJohn Her
man, the Secretary, lifted the collection.
The feature of lifting the collection, appear
ed to us very novel, and yet, in our estima
tion is u very excellent feature of interest in
the ollering? of the school t the collection is
lifted In a box in which nro a number of
smaller boxes numbered by classes the
openings at tho top are only largo enough
to admit the several amounts, and no one
can tell which class hss contributed most,
until all tho boxes are opened.
After singing another hymn, by request
we spoko to the school about tho birth of
Christ, (the subject under contemplation in
the school during the study,) and tried to
impress tho fact of the evidence of Christian
ity we have before us in all dated letters and
newspapers j for,about 1881 years ago Christ
became Incarnate for our salvation.
During the winter season, we were Inform
ed by the Superintendent, the school is not
as largo as lt,i during tho summer; Jcfler
son Sowers, the treasurer and blackboardist
of the school was not present living about
two miles from the church, but we examin

tho school, and are frflnk to confess Ihey are
hard to surpass in design and beauty of ex
ecution. Many who makeattetnpla at black
board drawing, would do well to go ond ex

Tile Corel Trade.
The anthracite coal trade Is in a licallhly
and satisfactory condition, The demand
for nearly all sizes Is good, and the supply of
coal is so nearly full that prices vary little
from the ruling nt any lime within the past
month or six weeks. It was, however, gene
rally understood among coal operators on
Saturday that the subject matter of resum
ing full work on the 1st proximo was being
agitated, to continue Ihrongh tho month of
February. This is In accordance with the
arrangement entered Into about the middle
of December last, to work hull lime through
to the end of January, and continue through
to the end of February half weekly suspen
shins, unless the exigency of the situation
should make a dilTcrent policy more advis
able. Such exigency, It is believed, has
come round. We havo had one of the se
verest winters, sinco the incoming or the
present, known in many years ; one that
has done more to limit the production or
coal and more to necessitate the supply of
fuel. These two opposite causes fully justify
lite trade in consideration as to the propriety
of resuming lull work at the mines, and
this, too, without rendering themsclve li
able to charges or vacillation. It hf impor
tant that the coal operators should be care
ful in their outgivings as to the amount and
the manner of tho production of coal that all
tho interests dependent on tho uso am)
supply or coal may filly rely upon their
outgivings. The supply or coal cannot now
bo railed short,und yet the demand is at least
cquol to the current supply. The orders for
coal come In as fully as'does tho required
amount ol coal to meet them, and to tills
just relation should the market bo held.
Tho stopping of coal at the mines for the
simple purpose of making It scarce, that the
prices may be unduly advanced, would boa
wrong amounting to outrage. The largo cor
porations engaged in moving so essential an
article as fuel are wise anil exercise no more
than a proper control of their business when
they keep production within those limits
that put it all the- time most economically
nn'tho market. This may bc,moit effectu
ally accomplished by keeping thesupply all
the time about equal to, the demand. In
operating to this end It Is important to have
the coal saason as long as-possible. The
annual tonnage of anthracite coal is now
from twenty-six to- thirty millions of tons.
To move this huge heap of coal from the
mines to the bins of consumers overs an
immense amount ol labor, but not to much
but that it may be properly estimated and
fully ascertained at about how much per
monthly cost. The coal moved during the
spring and summer months is handled much
more cheaply than iu the fall and winter.
The experience of the past year or two has
furnished much information for both pro
ducers and consumers of coal. Tho trade is
never advantaged by driving producers of
coal into bankruptcy and ruin, nor are con
sumers ultimately profited by procuring
their coal nt less than the cost of production.
Fair prices and modcrato profits are thejust.
means that should bo aimed at. To open
and work nn anthracite coal mine requires a
largo amount of capital ; comparatively few
peopletherefore, ore. able toj enter into the
business. Those who havo kept a run of
the trade for tho past twenty years knu
how uncertain have been its profits and how
frequently those engaged in it havo been
carried' to ruin. 11 is with satisfaction that
we now announce a much better prospect
for the trade than for the last few years. The
year"1881 is opening vitli a fayoriiblei show
ing for. oil interests in .the coal trade j not
tho least satisfactory part ol it. Is un, evident
disposition to net unitedly. Ledger, Mu'ri-

-One'nf the saddest aud most poignant
affairs for this community took place early
last week, when the bright and intnlSigent
child of Freeman A. Shupp, wus literally
bilrued to a crisp, living a few hours after
the uwful occurrence. The circumstances uf
the cas,p are these ; Mrs. Shupp was to the
barn doing some o! the out-door work,in the
absence of her husband who was on busi
ness H Weissport; while away from the
house, the oldest gill lighted 11 caudle and
tlieyounuer sUmdiug by, its hair was lenited
by somo means or other, which immediate
ly spread to her dress, and in the presence
of ho,r i;der sister, was burned tn death. The
sister did 'everything iu tier power to extin
guish the flames but all of no nyail. The
sorrow-stricken mother came too late uiwn
the heart rending scene to be ot uny he:p to
the Uufortunate cidld. It was buried 011
Friday last, nnd ila remains were followed
by a lirge concourse of sorrowing people.
Mrs. Klito Greonsweig, an old lady and

It does not depend nn sex at all this
business of teaching. A woman may shine
as un artist,riiler,general,preachcr,or teach
er so we believe, uui we uoiri ueueve as
many to the hundred will succeed in any
one of theso as men, for a great many rea
sons, ami hence, we. believe it is bad lor ed
ucation that so many women are permitted
tn teach though it is good for the women.

those women attended the Association as
members T Just two- "Ah. but wo can
teach just as well without attending educa-
cauouai associations, mey will say. to
which we will add, It will help any Chris
tian to go to church.
When a teacher has given' u month of
hard labor lie ought to be paid. This is a
thing on'.y our large cities indulge in, and
not all of them. To require a teacher to
'wait six or twelve mouths even, is almost a
crime it is a groat hardship and too much
to ask ol those who are doing this useful
work. The girls who works iu the kitchen,
the man who puts in the coal, the merchant
who sells the flour all are paid, but the
teacher must wait for the taxes to be collect
ed, take township or distrirt orders, etc. No
one, can teach well under such circumstances;
tbo best teachers will not do it. Entering a
bar-room not loug since where the teachers
are uiiafd, we tairthls iigu up over the
whisky bottles 1 "No credit given." That
is a sound matter anil is the foundation of
the man's success in his business. Teaching
should be paid lor as promptly as whisky
we think. Jot.

THE SUjF0R 1881.
Everybody readjTun son. In the editions
of this newspapar throughout the year to
come everybody will Und :
I. All the world's news, so presented that
the reader will get thegrcatettamount orin
formatlon with the least expenditure of lime
and eyesight. The Sun long ago dtrcuvered
the golden meaning between redundant ful
ness and unsatisfactory brevity.
II M uch ol that sort of news which depends
less upon Us recognised Importance than up.
on Its Interest to mankind. From morning to
morning Titu Sun prints a continued story of
the lives of real men and women, and of their
deeds, plans, loves, hales and troubles This
story is more varied and more Interesting than
any romance that was ever devised.
III. Good writing in every column, and
freshness, originality, accuracy and decorum
in the treatment of every subjtoi.
IV. Holiest comment. Tim Sun's habit Is
to sponk out fearlessly about men and things.
V. Equal candor In dealing with each poll,
ttcal pany, nnd equal readiness to commend
what Is praiseworthy or tn rebuke what Is
blainable In Democrat or Republican.
VI. Absuluto Independence of partisan or-
?anliutlons. hut unwavering loyalty to true
lemocnitlo principles. Tim sun believes
that the Government which the Constltntirn
gives us Is n good ono to keep. Its notion of
duty Is to resist to1tsutmostiowcrttieuor t
of men In the Republican party to set np
another form of government In place ol that
whloh exists. The year 1881 and the yenrt
Immediately following will probably decide
this supremely Important contest, the Sun
believes that the victrry will be with the peo
ple ns against the Rings lor monopoly, the
Rings lor plunder, ami the limgs lor Imperi
al puwer.
