National i Mouibiy. j THURSDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MAY 27, 1915. THIS ENGAGEMENT COMES AS SURPRISE Miss Mildred S. Fulton to Marry J.

The bride-elect, one of the most at tractive young women of the West End, received her education at both private and public schools of the city. Mr. Hamilton is connected with the hardware firm of Henry Gilbert & Son. Miss Morgan Leaving For Y. W. C. A. Summer Camp Miss Dorothy Morgan, extension sec retary of the Y. W. C. A., who is leav ing here for Camp Nepahwln, near Canton, Pa., for a summer's stay, was given a farewell party last evening by the Central High School Club of the association.

Miss Margaret Musselman, Miss Jesse Lebo, Miss Beatrice Runkle, Miss Hazel Snow. Miss Ruth Starry, Miss Alida Buckelew, Miss Miriam Hoopes, Miss Ruth Spotts, Miss Helen .Runkle, Miss Mildred Runkle, Miss Pauline Miller, Miss ICatherine Shillinger, Miss Marguerite Reynolds. Miss Alvlda E. Hertzler, Mies Eleanor Weaver, Miss Grace Saul. M' ss Esther Demmy, Miss Jennie Fry, Miss Mary Laudenslager. D. S. Shoemaker of this city, is visit ing Fred Dufler of Elizabethtown. Miss Nelle Shope has gone home to Tyrone after a ten days' visit with relatives here. Dr. and Mrs. S. C. Swallow, of Camp Hill, are spending a week at Wash ington, D. C. To Provide Homes For Rural Teachers A permanent home, provided by the school community for rural school teachers, is giving great satisfaction where it is in Vogue, according to Har old W. Foght in a bulletin just issued by the United States Bureau of Edu cation. While out of -3.000 teachers reply ing to Mr. Foght's inquiries only 7a live in homos provided by the com munity, the bulletin shows that teach ers who have such homes find It pos sible to become permanent community leaders. "In the few communities re porting permanent homes," declares the bulletin, "the teachers are usually able to project the schools Into the home and draw the home close to the school. Where teachers' cottages are provided, these, aside from making the teachers' own lives more attrac tive, naturally become rallying centers for all community activities." The investigations of Mr. Foght re veal that in rural United States the average time for each public school teacher to remain in any one school is less than two school years of 140 days each. "This average," says the bulletin, "is very much less for a ma jority of the. teachers, the few perma nent, professional teachers alone bringing it up close to the two-year level." As the average age when teaching Is begun Is 19 years, and the average number of years taught is only 6H. the bulletin's statistics show that the rural public schools of the country aro taught largely by young unmarried people who have no idea of following teaching as a profession. The conclusions of Mr. Foght are: "So long as teuchers continue to be peripatetics, the best results In com munity leadership can not be expected. A change from amateur to professional teaching In the rural schools would be hastened by giving the teacher a sal ary that would enable him to provide comfortably for his family, and by compelling the community, through legal enactment to erect a teacher's cottage In close proximity to every school plant." A NON-ALCOHOLIC TONIC Many people need a tonic at this time of year, o'.d folks, weak folks, thin people, people who are run down from too much work—and vacation still many weeks away. Nervous peo ple also need a tonic but cannot safely take alcohol. A non-alcoholic tonic that will build up the blood and strengthen the nerves is what most people need and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are exactly that. The one symptom of thin blood that everybody recognizes is pallor. It shows so gradually that other people are liable to notice it before you do. But it is important that you should notice and heed the warning because the thin blood that causes the pallor betrays some drain on the body or some poisoning by Its own waste ma terials that, if not corrected, will re sult in physical breakdown and 111 health. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills not only build up the blood but they have a direct strengthening action on the nerves. As they are free from nar cotics and p_ny harmful or poisonous drugs they are safe for every mem ber of the family. Your own druggist sells Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills. Write to-day to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenec tady, N. Y., for the free booklet, "Building Up the Blood," and. if your stomach troub'es you, auk for a diet book also.—Advertisement.
