Much' bas been said of tbe possibilities
of the sorap-bag, some of iL is true and
some of it exaggerated, but I bave proven
to my own satisfaction tbsta long list of
Christmas presents can be completed with
practically no material other than tbat tbe
average scrap-bag contains. The bunch
of violets for corsage or muff, for example,
was made from violet satin ribbon that
once adorned a candy-box and wire from

tbeir usual Thanksgiving treat tomorrow
at tbe bands of tbe Wheeler it Dusenbury

of 170 fine fat turkeys among the em
ployees, the combined weight of which is
about 2,000 pounds. It bas been a custom
with this enterprising firm for many
years past to remember in this substantial
way the men who bave been wilb them
during various terms of seivice, and
many families are thus made bappy,
while' tbe good will between employer
and employed is perpetuated aud ap
preciated. Mr. Range of Stewart Run, near
Pleasantville, who was in the city yes
terdsy, was Inquiring whether or not
there are game wardens in Ibis vioinily.
He stated tbat Sunday bunting bas be
come an intolerable nuisance In bis com
munity. Men and boys with guns and
dogs make every Sunday in that section
resemble an Italian charge against a
Turkish embattlement. He said tbat
sieps will be taken if possible to cause
tbe arrest of tbe nex t Sunday visitors to

A few applications of the law, as Mr.
Range seems to know bow to administer
It, might cure these tile.
Isaac McCoy found a pair of gold
bowed spectacles in the fodder while

Two Pittsburg bunters were baled
Into Squire Randall's court Friday morn
ing last on a charge of trespassing. Tbe
arres'. was made under tbe aotof 1905, and
Is the first conviction in this county un
der tbe law, but If farrajrs and others
-stick to what tbey say in tbe future it will
not be tbe last, as tbe oounty is being;
overrun by foreign bunters who seem
bent on slaughtering all tbe game in a
single season. The complaint in this
case was made by M L. Range of Har
mony townsMp, who bad through bis
sgent warned tbe party verbally not to
trespass npon the property which bad
been legally posted. Tbe squire imposed
a tine of $7.60 each upon the men, which,
with costs, amounted to about J23 00.
This fine goes to tbe school treasury of

COLEMAN & WATSOS'S LUMBERING
OPERATIONS.
A Complete Equipment Is Ordered And
Its Installation Is Begun.
Messrs. Colemau A WatsOn will have
one of the finest equipments in this sec
tion when they stsrt operations on tbe
Clapp timber tract covering over two
thousand acres of most beautiful virgin
pine, Tbey bave taken over tbe complete
outfit of tbe Cook oompany at Mill Creek
near Strattanvlile, a modern sawmill
plant, wjth logging engines, cars, etc.
aud are now dismantling it preparatory to
baying it shipped to Ibis place snd trans
ported to tbe new location at tbe mouth of
Johns run. The equipment consists of
one of the latest In band mills, with live
rolls, sutomstio feeds, log turners, eto.
and bavlng an almost unlimited capacity
for turning out lumber products. There
will be no wastage, everything being
utilized and put In shape for the market,
The construction of a dam across tbe
mouth of Johns run for retention of logs
as tbey are taken from the cars will be
one of tbe first matters to engage tbe firms
sttenlion, much of tbe work on wblcb
will be done this winter. Another feature
will be a dam across Tlonesta creek, over
which a railroad track will be built for
tbe transportation of the mill's output to
tbe Collins railroad on tbe east bank of
tbe creek. A barge yard above tbe dam
will be maintained, and tbe company ex
pects to utilize much of its long timber In
tbe construction of these large coal craft
for which there is always a lively demand
and a ready sale on the lower river at
Pittsburg and down tbe Ohio,
It Is expected to bave the plant In full
operation in ibe early summer, possibly
by tbe first of July, and when once under
way upward of a hundred people will be
stesdily employed In and about the in
stitulion, and while a commodious board
ing bouse will be maintained at tbe plant
for tbe single men, most of those with
families will make their borne in Tio

Of Interest to Directors and Teachers.
County Superintendent J. O. Carson,
In answer to queries made to tbe Depart
ment of Public Instruction at Harris-
burg, bas received tbe decisions quoted
below from Deputy Supt. A. D, Glenn
In v ew of wbat Is said in regard to tbe
treasurers, it would no doubt be a wise
thing for tbe various school boards of the
oounty to re-elect their preseut treasur
ers. It will be a wise move as a mattor
of economy, for by so doing they will
avoid Ibe trouble and expense of an audit
ot tbe school sccoonts at this time, whicb
would be necessary were a change made.
Tbe regular audit is made at the end of
the school year, July 1st. The decisions
folllow:
"The term of the treasurer of school
boards wbo were elected in June or July,
1911, expires on tbe first Monday of De
cember, 1011, but tbe new boar! can re
elect the treasurer, whether be is re
elected as a director or not, snd he can
then continue In office until July, 1012.
A county superintendent bas no au
thority to permit a teacher engaged in
teaching in bis own oounty to attend an
Institute In auother county, Tbe teacher
oould not receive remuneration for at
tending in auotber county, aud, in addi
tion, would be subject to a fine of three
dollars per day for every day absent from
bis own county institute."
