the story of Usn John, a friend of Phil

Just before Joh'n was sent to Jail a

"Jim died of wood. alcohol. Mo an'

to John's story, ho and his friends
used to steul th'o stuff from the car

Lackawanna Iron and Htel company.
Cor.tlnuliiK in his talk, John sail: "Jim

rivals, talc the principal parts.
After tho amusing first part, a strong

entitled "An Isle of Hold." The show is
a refined cne and such as can lw at

Tho matter of local Institutes Is to
tecolve especial attention In county
school work this winter. Superintend
ent J. C. Taylor believes them to be
of Immeasurable help to tho teachers,
and In line with this belief has ar
ranged un elaborate plan for the sys
tematic holding of these affairs
throughout every portion of the county.
Seven districts have been mapped
out, embracing all the schools under
control of the county superintendent,
and an Institute committee, composed
of teachers of that district, selected
to take local charge of the Institutes.
To each member of the committees
Superintendent Taylor has addressed a
circular uiglng Increased effort towards
the success of tlieso affairs, and sug
gesting means of attaining the desired
end. These circulars in substance were
as follows;
1 have at pointed you a member of Insti
tute coinmltteo to lepresent your district
because I bellevo you me Interested In
education and that you will bo wiling to
assist in this Important work. Hitherto
local lustltuto work hat not been as sue
cessful as it should be; mil unless iho
members of there committees will tako
hold of tho work with energy and deter
mination, It will be in the future as It has
been In the past only a partial success.
Whllo professlorul advancement Is a
leading object of these meetings, another
purpose, scarcely second In Importance,
should be kepi in view. We oukIU so to
plan for these Institutes as to attract to
them the school directors and the pations.

In the bauds ot the people, progress can
bo made only so fast as the several steps
nro sanctioned by a majority of the citi

private Instead of public (as If we were
ashamed ot our work), at least one-half
of their value is thrown away a the be
ginning. 1 shall be pleaded If you will con

committee, und I will do all that 1 can
