Rees, who has been spending a short vacation at his former home at Austin, Pa, re- turned to Sayre last night, Mr, and Mrs. G. T. Drake, of Waverly, will spend the winter in Florida. Mr. Drake is an employe of the Lehigh Valley, being em- ployed on the local freight transfer platform. WANTED---A CHAIRMAN Edwin S. Stuart, the Republican candidate for govergor, is billed to address the citizens of Sayre at a public meeting to be held in the Packer Hosc rooms on Friday evening next. From present indi- cations the candidate for governor will not receive an ovation on the occasion of his visit to Sayre, The meeting, it is understood, is to be held under the auspices of the county committee, and in order that it may be conducted in the usual manner it will be necessary to have a chairman and a few vice- presidents, So far, however, the committee has been unable to se- cure a man who will consent to act as chairman and it looks as if the job will go begging. Oae promi- gent citizen, who has always been a dyed.in-the-wool Republican, has been offered the job Ia fact he has been almost begged to take it, but he has refused. He will be conveniently absent from town on the day of the meeting. Others of less prominence have also been re~ quested to introduce the guberna- torial candidate, but up to date they have all given plausible ex- cuses, and have refused to serve. The county committee is also in need of several dozen vice-presi- dents, but the efforts to secure men who are willing to stand for having their names appear in the public prints as being in sympathy with the “gang” candidate for governor have also proven futile. It is said that Mial has instruct- ed his henchmen in Sayre to steer clear of the Stuart meeting and not become identified with it in any way. While Mial is known to be traveling hand in hand with the corrupt Republican machine, he is going to be exceedingly carcful about letting it appear on the sur- face. Therefore he has told his followers in Sayre not to get too prominent as it will only be a case of making bad matters worse so far as Sayre is concerned. Unless a chairman is secured today it is likely that Mr. Stuart will be compelled to introduce himself to the citizens of Sayre. AN OLD AUTOMOBILE. Ezra Baxter, of Troy, has pre- sented The Record with a fine pic- ture of an automobile, which is ov er 100 years old. More properly speaking the automobile is an ox- cart, believed to be the only one of its kind in existence, and the pice ture was taken at the fair which was recently held at Troy. The cart is a two wheel affair and is loaded with a dozen or more hand. some young women. Attached to the cart are two ox teams driven by Mr. Baxter, The cart has passed down through three gener- ations of the Baxter family and is in an excellent state of preserva. TALOWEEN The youngsters in Sayre are making preparations for the proper celebration of Hallowe'en, and from the present indications it will be attended to in a most enthusias- tic manner. The long looked for event occurs on the evening of Oc- tober jist, and for several nights preceding there is an abundance of fun and revelry for young Amers ica, Itis right for the boys to have all the fun they can as long as it is of a sane and sensible char acter, There are plenty of ways a good™time, but the des iL DAY Presbyterian Church Last Evening. was observed at the Presbyterian being filled to overflowing with friends of Sayre's well known in- nurses consisted of four members Charlotte M.

Sawtelle, treasurer of the Board of Trustees, presented the financial statement for the past year, and the Rev. P.

During the course of his remarks Mr. Ross suggest ed that a home for the nurses should be erected in connection with the hospital and the sugges. with favor by the board of truss tees. The diplomas for the grad- uating class were presented to the graduates by Henry Streeter, Esq of Towanda. Mr. Streeter spoke in his usual entertainiog manner and stated to the nurses that the board of trustees at their last meeting had spread upon the min- utes a resolution commendatory of the work of the late MaryPolley, a nurse who died several weeks ago at the hospital, The presentation of medals was made by the directoress of nurses, Mfss Emily McCreight.

Comparatively few people know that ringing a bell ruins it. That is, a bell has a definite length of life and after 50 many blows will break. A 960-pound bell, struck blows of 178 foot pounds of force, broke after 11, 000 blows. A 4,000-pound bell broke after 15,000 Llows of 350-foot pounds force Army Coolery, Happily there Is one school of cook- ery In the army, but this is consid ered to be “beneath notice,” and is not mentioned in the army list In the Interest of the health of the army the question of providing further means for learning cookery may well be considered. —The Hospital Tribute to Nationality.
