No one who i8 really alive to the ov- erwhelming importance of Pennsyl- vania's agricultural interests can fall to reget the shortsightedness of powers that Iw in permitting Thomas F. Hunt to removed the place of Dean of Agriculture and Director of Experiments at The Penn- sylvania State College, and carried away to California. It is a serious reflection upon the gobd judgment of evervone in any way responsible for it. That the Board of Trustees of the College, at the annual meeting at Har- risburg last week chose Prof alph IL. Watts, who for four years has been at the head of the Department of Horticulture and Market Gardening, to succeed Dr. Hunt, may be accepted as an irance that the agricultural in- terests of the state, is 80 far as the school of agriculture and the experi- men’ station can affect those interests, will not suffer whit because of the change Dean Watts has all his life been : } for agricultural knowledge ! is a genius in the ap plication f it to the practical work of the garden and farm Brim ruths of agricultural sclend runt ver with good na ture } spirit whi touche of human nat F338 and pos sessing die farming w Hf experience f 4 e of mest in Spiring I no young man his influend can iplifting inspira tion The Trust 8 of the C made no when they Prof. | coed Dr pr. be 188 one “s of sides energy knowle mly of the and 0 P : ollege Mrs. wi has been noted in ti ward letter, with Ie trus », yielded to the inevital wacefully slept away the Friday afternoon orn Mary J.

There seems that cur pretty have added to the many comforts and conveniences which make life more worth living here than in very many of the smaller towns, or larger ones either for that matter, of the state, a system of public lighting for our steeta. While it not understood that definite and detailed armnge- ments hae been made, it is certain that Balser Weber, of the Howard Tool and Iron Co. who has a fran- <hise for the purpose, has erected a line of poles from the rolling to the borough, and is rapidly placing them on the streets. It is also true that it has been arranged to make appli- cation to the governor for a charter of incorporation for this purpose on the wighteenth of February. If the light- Ing, when it comes, shall be as effi «lent as the work already done seems "e emed as a living HVInE funeral home tad By ted Dy on het little doubt to be Now is to Indicate, it will be cause for gener- | al congratulation. The poles already set are first class ones well set In straight lines and with full regard to the convenience and wishes of the property holders as well as the gen- eral public, Let there be Nght The First Train. Las* Friday morning about half past ten o'clock, the first regular train passed over the new low grade which has been built within the last six months, north of our town. It ran eastward and consisted of thirty-nine loaded freight cars, drawn by engine 764, and was In charge of conductor Dean and engineer Carl Voght. The speed was about five to eight miles an hour, and no hitch nor halt was found in the running. It lowed by a second freight at a some- what higher speed. The track was found to be In fine condition, and practically ready for regular traffic. Of course there are many little de- tects to be looked after, and, as In all casex of new track, It will need close attention and much work for some months to come, before it will be set. tied down to the perfect condition needed for the rapid movement of the heavy sraflic for which it Is intended, President Jackson. The Engineer's Association of the Land Grant Col- legen, was organized at Washington, D. C, last Friday, by a meeting of the representatives of thirty-five States, and elected Dean J. Price Jackson, of the Pennsylvania State College, pres- ident. Thus is the high standing of Penn State among the land grant col- legen again made manifest, and duly recognized. Dean and president Jack- son is one of Penn State's own boys, thaving risen from “Freshi¢” to Dean ‘by dint of his fine endowment and ‘splendid equipment, and no member of its present, or any of Its former facul- ties, has contributed more than he to the bullding up of the great Institu- tion now the boast and pride of the state, during home, of John © Glenn, Gone...
