Health Report for February.
Diseases. Ca*e* Death*.
Measles 103 0
Typhoid fever 2 0
Diphtheria 2 0
Scarlet fever 0 1
Some of our physicians and householders
are somewhat negligent in reporting
measles. Many of this class of persona
think measles are not a dangerous disease
While such may be the case, as a rule, iri
isolated country districts, there is danger
of them becoming an epidemic in a place
as large as Butler, and necessarily closing
our school*. A Iso, phy*icians and house
honlders who do not report measles are
liable to a fine of not less '.ban $lO or more
tban SIOO. A notice sent to the Board of
Health by any householder will call the
attention of the health officer to the ca*c
and have the bouse properly quarantined,
fn sending notices be particular to give
street and number.

Dick School.
This school which is most pleasantly
located two miles South east of Prospect,
on the White Oak Springs road, begaa the
present term, Sept. 9. 1595, with the fol
lowing scholar- Thomas Cratty, Carl
T>odds. Fred Pflugh. Ford Dodds, James
Cratty. Everett Dodds, James Ralston,

You notice that there are only eight
girls, finf young ladies we should say, but
John Grenue says his girls will soon be old
enough to start, and then the vacant eats
will not be so vacant. Good idea, John,
harry them along. The fifth month ended
Monday, Feb. 10, and Charles Pflugh,
Raymond Dodds, Salie Dodds, and l.ulu
Dodd.) had been present every day, while
the attendance of the remainder of the
scholars has been very good, considering
the. bad roads, r<«gh weather, ai.d
la grippe. The scholars are generally
studious and willing to learn, and some of
them are preparing to be examined for
diplomat, at Prospect, March 7. We
would not Load you to think we are saints,
by any means, but we haven't had a quar
rel, or heard God's name profaned this
winter, and how much more pleasant it ii
for the teacher and all others, when such
nuisances are absent.
All the township schools are progress
ing finely, so far a-: we know, and the
people are generally interested, not only
in the schools but in the local institutes
which the directors have provided extra
for them The teachers are encouraged
in every way. and there are hopes that a
little rise in salary will soon come to cheer
the tired brains and the depressed spirits
of th<s faithful servants. Good text books
are fine; nice school houses and apparatus
are excellent; but a live, enthusiastic, self
sacrificing, very much encouraged teacher
is better than all things else. Far be it
from us *.O find fault with anyone, but our
eighteen years' experience in the school
room has lead us to believe that the teach
er, attor all, is the text, the chart, aud the
compass. Oar visitors haven't been very
numerous, but Elliott Kobb, the director,
Sapt. McColloutrh, Prof. J. H. Wilson,
Willie Dodds, Elmer Riddle, Willie Cratty,
Thomas Dodds, Geo. Pfiugh, John Dodds,
Wm. Pllugh, Willie Clark, and Howard
Adams have come in lo spend a few hours
with us. Locai institutes have been held
at Hickory Corner, Hill, Mile Run, and
Saturday Feb. 22, was the day for our in
stitute at Dick. The day was fair, the
teachers and scholars assembled in tbe
morning, as usual, and pursued the regular
work till noon, when the people had come
in goodly numbers. When the noon hour
was announced, the committee on pre
paration stepped forward, and proceeded
to arrange the excellent dinner which the
gi;od cooks of the district had prepared,
oh! (not McKee's oh) what a fine dinner
it was, pies, cakes, buns, meats, pickles,
an ) other things too numerous to mention.
It seemed as if every one had anticipated
such a repast, and had come in the pro
per shape to do justice to the oocasion.
Dit.uer over, the older ones, the fathers
and the mothers enjoyed themselves dis
cussing the good old times of yore, while
tbe light hearted young folks spent the
hour in such innocent joys, looks and
words, as are beyond the power of words,
to describe. The tingle of tbe bell an
nounced that play time was ended, aud by
common consent Elliott Robb took the
chair, preparatory to going to llarrisburg
we suppose, and executed the followiug
program: Song, "America" by the school
