The Krlo and Wyoming Valley rail road has derided to abf.ndon the cen tralization of Its trainmen. About Un years .ieo an eoffrt was made to rme the trainmen reside In Duninotc, but this week three crews have been re turned to Avoca, ThesF men left then thinking it best to bo In personal com munication with the men. It Is now thought more advantage ous to have these men reside nejr the Avoca yards, for then thty can take empty coal trains dire-t to Avoca from Wlmmcr's Summit, impart of having it lay over for the night at Duniore By the new plan thesi? cars cjii now be distributed early lr the morning to the various collieries The crews af fected have for their engineers Max Miller, W. H. Heckendorf and Coo Scigle, two of thfm working days and the other one nights. Wilkes-Barre Record. The programme which was arranged by theliteiary society of the High school proved u complete success. At the close of the seconu period yesterday all the classess were dismissed from the reclta tlonroomsand went directly to the audi torium, taking their accustomed seats. The first exercise on the programme was a piano solo by Miss Morris who, although quite young, did great credit to herself In the rendering of her part. Her effort met with the appreciation of nil of the students. This selection was followed by two recitations, deliv ered by Miss Green in a very clever manner. John Burns, a, member of the Sophomore class, and one who is work ing hard for the success of the lately organized glee club, was the next on the programme. He sang a bass solo In the most becoming stylo for which he received the congratulations of every body. Mr. lloovcn delivered a very line oration on Christmas and what It means to us. He dwelt on the rise of Christianity, how to spend a merry Christmas nnd many other things which were Instructive. Jesse Rodriguez gave two very fine selections on the violin followed by two recitations by Miss Alice Wllllame. Miss Anna Moldruin acted as accompanist throughout the exercises. Many visitors from all parts of the city were present at the exer cises. The literary society held Its regular meeting Thursday instead of Friday. The meeting was chiefly of a business nature. The debate, which Is to take place with Carbondale high school was the principal thing dterussed. After considerable discussion as to the best time for holding the debate It was final ly decided to have It on the first Friday In March. It was decided to have as a committee composed of Professors Hughes. "Wagner and Fuller, together with Mr. Ilooven, act in selecting a suitable subject and decide upon de baters. Mr. Ilooven, Miss O'Hoyle and Miss Frlenbers were appointed as a committee to select all the others who will take part. Professor Hughes still continues to show his great Inter est In the society, and during the meet ing helped the members by many little suggestions. A number of students who graduated last year and entered college at tb" beginning, are home on their holiday vacation and at different days this, week paid the school a visit. Wednes day William Scranton, who is now studying In Princeton, was enter tained by the senior class and stayed with the class throughout the session. He greatly admired the many new Im provements and the Increased facilities for study, Robert Gardner and his college chum, Mr. Hill, both students of Exeter college, together with Mr. Moses, a student In the dental depart ment of the University of Pennsyl vania, attended the school durine- I'm first few periods on Thursday. All the visitors were well rcclv?d by all their old high school frlendo We are glad to say that the question of a class pin, which has been the sub ject of considerable comment, has been settled for r- least another year. The meanfl adopted for 'selecting this pin meets with the npprovnl of all. At the meetings of the class on Tuesday after a little talk they decided to drop both pins which have been wanted by certain parties, nnd select one entirely different from cither. This was done and as a result they have selected one that, according to the likings of many, Is far superior to cither of the other two. Furthermore, tho matter has been settled In a manner that Is sat isfactory to almost the entire senior class. The originators of the glee club, to gether with all those Interested In Its organization, held a mooting Wednes day for the purpose of organization. Mr. Burns acted ns chairman of the meeting. After considerable discussion on the subject n motion was madu to lvive the glee club separate from all all other organizations In the s:hool, nnd to have Professor Dcrman, who has volunteered hla services, as the mu&lcnl director. The following Is the list of the members as it now appears Messrs. Parker, Grant, Harrington, Chandler, Dawes, Webb, Burns, Jones, McMullen, Mattlson, Phillips, Hooven, Frear, St. John und T. Hynon. The heart of every student In the school was made happy yesterday when they learned that Professor Grant had decided to have only two periods of recitation. This enabled the literary j society, which had prepared an excel- i lent Christmas porgramme, to use ns i much of the remaining periods as they chose for the rendering of It. Nearly all the teachers wished their classes ,x very enjoyable time during the holidays and to further their enjoyment they did not give out nny lessons to be pre pared for the opening of school.
