Tho Shippfiishurg Normal
School oiiWs tostudonls superior
advantages at very moderate
rates. To become a successful
teacher, a special education is
needed. Young persons who at
tempt to teach without special
preparation for the work, do
themselves and their schools
great injustice. The state pays
tho tuition of all persons over 17
years of age who arc preparing
to toaeh.
Persons having a fair knowl
edge of the common branches,
should enter at the opening of

in completing the work of the
Junior class. Every person re
commended this year by the Fac

This indicates that the work in

Judge Swope Decides Two Appeals.
Judge Swopo has filed his o
pinions iu two cases that were
tried at our last term, of Court
the tisrt was the appeal of Miss
Mary E. Daniels of this place
from the valuation placed upon
her property on Water street by
tho Assessor and County Com
missioners. The Assessor val
ued the propeny at $1100.00, and
the Commissioners rrduced it to
1050.00, but Miss Daniels asked
for a further reduction which
was refused, so an appeal was
taken and the case was tried at
June term of Court. After re
viewing the evidence and citing
the law applicable to such sases,
the Judge reduced the valuation
to $845.00.
The other case was the appeal
of the Chambersburg Turnpike
Company from the assessment
and valuation of tho two toll gate
properties near this place. The
Assessor of Tod township assess
ed the toll house and one acre of
ground in Tod township at $600,
while the As: essor ol Ayr town
ship assessed the toll house and
one acre of ground in Ayr town
ship at $450.00. The Turnpike
Company was represented before
tlio Commissioners and claimed
that tho properties were exempt
Irom taxation, as they are part of
the franchises of the Company
and are necessary for the main
tenance and operation of , the
Turnpike. The Commissioners
exempted the toll houses, but
valued the acre of ground ot each
toll house at $250.00. la his
opinion Judge Swopo decides
that the toll houses aud the acre
of ground appurtenant to each
one are exempt from taxation.
