T. II. MURRAY",
June 14, J71. Ch. Co. Com.
T.YOoMisc, county has a croek called
tyuriiishtichn'iitfli';! ereck. Who can pro
tiouuce it? We can't!
It frequently happens that painters
eplush paint on the wiiiJoiv glass. Soda
dissolved in very hot water and applied
with a soft flannel, will entirely remove it.
Farmers should be on their guard ; pat
ent right swindler are numerous. Have
'nothing to do with them. If you need
farming implements purchase them of our
town merchant.
Have a large number of our patrons for
gotten that they received bills for the
Amount of their indebtedness to the Jour
nal? Perhaps they do uot know what
bills are sent for !
A NEW picket fence has been built along
the east side of the "upper" Town Park.
The trees are growing fine, and this will
!-oon be a beautiful place of resort on warm
summer evenings.
How much better our town would look
if, instead of the immense mud-holes we
now tee on the streets, we had them paved
with the patent Niculson pavement. We
"Would then have the pretiiet little town in
the State, without exception.
Died. At his residence, in Akoooa, on
Vi'cdnesday illuming, June Hill, alter a
lingeriiifi iiluess, Benjamin Babcoek, aeed
about fifty years. Mr. B. was for some
years a resident of Clearfield, but removed
to Alioona about eight years .since.
Chick WEED, gathered in June, is said to
be a sure remedy for the bite of a mad dog.
After gathering, place in the shade ti'l dry,
then reduce to powder. Dose for adult : one
tcaspoonful ; and the same for a child, di
vided ioto three doses. Give iu beer or
milk.
Messrs. Win. W. Brisbin at:d J- D.
Lewis, two printers from Nlw Orleans, call
ed in our sanctum on Tuesday a wetk. They
were visiting Mr. Bri.-bin's brothers at Os
ceola, in this county, after having atttended
the International Typographical Association
at Baltimure. Like all printers, they are
very jnvi.il an 1 clever gentlemen.
Slveu.m. refreshing ruins fell in this re
gion Julius the j.H-t week, and vegetation
of ali kinds has areatly revived in consc
quen -e. The prass and oats crops, howev
er, were somewhat injured by the previously
prevailing drouch. Oilier s.iii,g ei ops are
highly promising. The wheat crop, we are
informed, is mm.Ii belter than for a number
of years.
The cew Drlviu,' Park and Fair Ground,
has been laid out, and when completed
will be as Ciie a ground as can be found in
the central part of the C-'ta'.e. It contains
twenty acres, two &ui a half of which is
woods, well grown with sinaf.i' spruce ; this
part is to be made perfectly clean, with
drives and walks running through it in all
directions, and will be a splendid place lor
pic nics, etc. The diiving track in the
open part of the ground will be a half mile
while that of the old grouud was only the
third of a mile. The fenciug, cleaning up,
etc, is in good hands, and will be pushed
forward with energy. The ground is to be
completed iu time for the Fair, to held iu
October next.
Improvement. The several new pave
ments on Second street are dcciled improve
ments. Prof. Sharps gave one of his highly
interesting ventriloquial entertainments iu
the Baptist church last evening. As usual,
he drew a reasonably good crowd.
Altoona bnardwalks, like Altoona morals, are
shaky. IIollitiaqibHrg Standard.
ClearSeld has some ot the former shaky
boaidwalks but of the latter, we will let
others jadge, at present.
Served them right Several ma'l
boys, named respectively, Jack Reed, Ed.
Heed, Ed. Southard, and Frank Bradley,
the oldest one not being over twelve years,
were taken before 'Squire Porter on Satur
day, on complaint of G. C. Passmore. The
whole four, we understand, h; d been fight
ing one other little boy. After a hearing,
the Justice fined -them each four dollars;
and upon the fines being paid and giving
security for future good behavior, they were
released from custody.
Local CorresDondeace.
Our Band. For the last two weeks our
band lias paraded the streets, discoursing
music sweet enough to soothe any savage.
We have a good band, and ought to be
proud of our native talent, but we don't do
our duty by it. When eighteen or twenty
young men are willing to sacrifice their own
amusement for our entertainment, we ought
at least do something in evidence of our ap
preciation of their talent and industry. Our
neighboring towns are furnishing their bauds
with uniforms and other equipments, and
our baud is just as good, if not a little
"gooder" than any band in the interior of
the State, at least this is the verdict of com
petent judges. We all like music, ami it is
as little as we could well do, to furnish them
with the necessary instruments and music.
We all desire to see the baud prosper, and
unless we assist them financially it will
eventually go down. Some of our citizens
have contributed liberally, even more than
their share, but others who are just as fond
of music, and listen to and enjoy it as often,
don't contiibute at all. Now, iu order to
use all alike, and give all an opportunity of
contributing to its support, the band will
serenade three evenings each week for the
pur rose of" rccch iug contributions. Then,
let us all prove our appreciation of good
music, and make the band a perfect success
anl a "fixed institution" of our town.

To the School Directors of Ceear
field County. A Convention of Directors
will be held at Curwensville, the Soth of
June, 1871. The object of the meeting is
to devise some means by which the efficien
cy of the common schools may be increased.
We cannot expect success unless we adopt
good plans and resolve to vigorously execute
them. It is hoped, therefore, that all Di
rectors will feel sufficiently interested to at
tend and give to the common cause the ben
efit of their views.
Topics for Discussion.
Should a general course of study b.e adop
ted for our schools?
Should Teachers' salaries be uniform and
what should be the basis for adjusting them?
Should there be a general programme for
Teachers in mixed schools?
Should Directors adopt a code of rules
and regulations for the government of
schools ?
There are but two School Boards in the
county that are subscribers for the School
Journal. This Magazine has been very
much improved in appearance, arrangement
of matter and assortment of contents. Ev
ery live Director should take it, and no one
can afford to be without it who feels an in
terest in the cause of education.
Those Boards that have not yet received
their quota ot Laws and Reports, will let
me know where they wish them left; so
they can either send or call and get them ;
also, if they will have any summer schools
length of term and time of opening.
