The storm on Sunday night played sad havoc in many of the corn fields of this section. The oats and rye fields also shared badly where the crop hud not yet been harvested. Wm. Ikenbeurg has harvested a good crop of rattlesnakes on his farm near Ross Hun this year, the number being 15, an.) the count is not all in yet. Oi.e of them carried 14 rattles. The first mess of roastiog ears that have adorned the editor's table this sensor came from tho garden of Mr. Ctnfield, who is no doubt ahead in that linp of garden truck this year. ILark. Wentworth captured quite a likely little "pet"' Monday in the shape of a rattlesnake measuring one foot in length. It is caged iu a fruit jar and can bu seen by calling on Dr. Co burn. A company hits commenced oper ations for the putting down of a well on the Love & Rodgers tract, about three miles northeast of Tylersburg, and about two miles from the Forest county line. Hon. M. C.

He seemed to enjoy his visit and we know his old comrades here did, and will always be glad to welcome him back. Two tramps who had been badly scalded one on the left and the other on the right arm on a sawmill in Jefferson county, came through here yesterday and were taken care of by Mayor Holeman. They were evi dently deserving. The steady and drenching rain of Sunday night brought the creek up to pretty fair rafting stage, and sever al rafts belonging to the Messrs. Lacy were run out to the mouth. Mr. T. P. Flynu has the contract of running the lumber and we believe got out about 18 pieces with comparatively little "moving." Next Saturday will be a legal holiday. PostotHces and banks will be closed, and business generally sus pended. Memorial services will be held iu all parts of the United States, and the day will bo generally devoted to doing honor to the memory of America's most illustrious citizen. We hope to see our town observe the day in an appropriate manner.

B. Muse and W. L. Klinestiver, who pro pose publishing a Democratic paper. Both uro active, energetic young men, full of vim, with a perfect knowledge of the printing business and are cap able of giving the Democracy of the county a tip top, good paper, of which thoy ueed not bo ashamed. Barring politics the young men have our best wishes for success. The Pennsylvania Reserve Asso ciation will hold its annual reuuion 2 o'clock p. ra., Tuesday, August lltb, 1885, at Devil's Den, Gettysburg.

Excursion rates on all rail roads have been secured and orders for tickets at reduced rate can be pro cured from Post Commander nearest to place of residence. The following equib from the Franklin Evening News gets there with both feet : "Reporters are often blamed for saying too much, whereas wh.it they actually do say is but a drop in the bucket of what they are told, but do not repeat. Everybody with an ax to grind, an enemy to dis parage, or an animosity to gratify, pours bis tale iuto the scribe's ear, with the hope that the sarao will be published at the risk of the paper. If every bit of information that leaks into a newspaper office should be printed, you would Bee lively times. Ability in editing the local depart ment of a paper consists in knowing what to exclude." Last Monday evening while Mike Kightlinger of the Ceutral House was driving Elmer Fleming to Balltown, the team Brownell's ponies be came frightened and leaped over a ten-foot embankment near Balltown, upsetting the vehicle aud spilling its occupants. Mike kept a death grip ou tho reins, but before the team was brought to a stand still the buggy was badly demolished. But the interest ing part of the story has not come yet : Either during or before this accident Elmer lost a red morocco pocket book containing $110 in currenoy, and three notes of $240, $200 and $135 respectively. He offers a reward of $50 to the one leaving the same at this office or returning it to him. Trunks, Traveling Bags, Satchels, at Wm. Sinearbaugh & Cos. 2t. Clarington Notes.

EDUCATIONAL. It la undoubtedly true that moRt people are better pleased to hoar othor people apeak of their excellencies than of their faultn. Onee in awhile a to-bo-pltied in dividual of warped mind and unbalanced judgment may be found who prides him self upon, and makes a boast of poases sitifr, and exercising,' attributes that are not, when properly viewed, found to eon tain anything excellent. But such canes are almost as rare an they ought to be. It has been suggested to the Supt. that, it might lw well to speak more of ths exeel lonoles found in the schoolroom and loss of tho faults met with there, in the arti cles prepared by him for publication in tho local paper. The suggestion deserved some consid eration. But it must bo considered with reference to the inquiry as to whether we can better remedy tho delects found in our schools, and build them up, by cal ling attention to theso defects and to the faults committed by the teachers, or by holding up the bettor sides of tho schools, and the better qualities of tho teachers as educational factors. It may not once appear to the mind of every person interested, but it seems to be true, that no matter at which side of school work wo look tho othor side is Im plied ; that if we speak positively of tho excellencies of some schools or some teachers the defects and faults of othor schools or other teachers are considered negatively. We say, seems to be. For If some piece of school work done by some teacher be commended will not tho teach er who does tho same work in an entirely different manner feel himself condemned ? While it is true that there are many ways of doing tho same thing in the lino of school work and all these ways equally good, does not one run the risk ot being misconstrued into condemning other ways of doing school -work if he com mends one way of doing tho same? or, may ho not bo construed into commend ing all the ways of doing tho samo work? Now, undoubtedly there are ways of doing school work that are very injurious. And it is a fact that teachers sometimes tall into such ways. Now, how shall we rerr.eny such things ? Suppose there are seven diflerent ways of doing tho samo piece of school work, each of seven differ ent te ichers using one of those ways, and but six of those ways at all good, tho sev enth beiug really injurious. Then one teacher is doing work that is harmful. Other teachers arc found doing the same. Communities are deluded into believing this method tho correct ono because em ployed by some teacher of prominence. Shall wo remedy tho matter by speaking of one of the six excellent mothods. or by speaking of the wrong one? and, if necessary, coupling with our criticism a suggestion of improvement ? The goneral object to bo accomplished by tho publication of educational articles in the local papers is the improvement of the schools. Schools are improved by the employment of better, say the best, meth ods of teaching by the teachers employed, and by tho arousing of a better public ed ucational sentiment. Our schools aro constantly turning out now teachers. The employment of poor methods by the teachers now presiding over our schools means tho transmission of theso same poor methods down to later dates, for teachers teach as they have been taught, at least for a time. The Supt. should speak out against theso methods and ways of doing school work that are harmful, and that belong to past educational ages, their place now being supplio.l with bet ter thing than these. And the Supt. ard the teacher should work hand in hand as fellow laborers in upbuilding and main taining a sentiment favorable to better schools. It is not enough to say of a Supt. or teacher that ho pleased tho peo plo unless that means that he led them to look for, to expect, and to realize better things within the sphere in which he aud thoy were conjointly interested. Your Supt. has thought that it might be productive of good results to present oc casionally specimens of work as actually met with In tho schools. And yet it sooms like treading on hallowed ground to do so. The question is how, how, how, how shall we go about this matter in order to accomplish better things. But let it be understood that every drop of ink spilled by the Supt. in these articles is spiUed in tile cause of tho childrou j your children, good people of the county of Forest. fin. i. Aim, Supt.
