Miss Annie Watkins Deal
Miss Annie Watkins died at the
home of her brother-in-law, Rev.
Rodgers, at the Lutheran parson
age in Union township, on Mon
day evening, aged about 86 years.
The immediate cause of her death
was tuberculosis of the lungs, al
though she had been confined to
her bed less than three weeks.
Her funeral took place yester
day and interment was made in
the cemetry at the Buck Valley
Lutheran church. She came to
the Valley with the family of her
brother-in-law about three years
ago, from Tunnesseo, and she
was an estimable lady.
Thirteen is not always an un
lucky number, for on her thir
teenth birthday, which occurred
on the 7th of this month Rebecca
Hockensmith, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. M. M. Ilockensmith, of
Andover, received ninety three
pout cards, each bearing some
message of kindly greeting from
some (rood friend. Rebecca
thinks the Niavs just a good
place in which to express ber
thanks and to pay just how much
she was pleased.
The Citizens bank, of Dry Run,
opened its doors for bomnpss on

feel the first of a lumber panic,
lie drew attention to the fact that
we had supplies of coal and iron
greater than any other nation
but the end of both coal and iron
is in sight. By the year 193T.
all the iron will have been exhaus
tod. lie also drew attention to
the fact that there was a time
when Uncle Sam was rich enough
to give us all a farm. Anybody
could settle in the west and after
living on it five years and proving
up his claim, the land was his,
but today Uncle Sam is no longer
able to give us a farm. All the
land in the United States has
be?n taken up except that which
must be drained or irrigated.
Have you ever pictured the con
ditions of us, when all the sup
plies of fuel have been exhausted.
In Iceland nothing grows bigger
than a birch, but a birch will
grow wherever a boy will grow.
Now in Iceland where the condi
tions are so hard, the human race
does not obtain its usual height;
but when those Icelanders are
transported to Minnesota, they
grow as large as any other boy
and yet Iceland has attained a
very high degree of culture that
has gamed the admiration of the
world and it has solved some pro
biems of Government that we are
still struggling with.
"I recall my University days at
Leipsic and Berlin when my stove
was a big porcelain one in the
corner of the room which was
heated abou1. eleven o'clock so
that it would be warm on my re
turn from the lectures. Many a
time have I seen the servant girl,
in the kitchen, with her knuckles
blue with cold because she could
not afford to have the stove heat
ed during the cold winter eve
niags. Now, what will be the condition
of the American people when our
supply of fuel is gone? What is
it that will make Pittsburg wane
a century from now? They say
that the solt coal will begin
to give out in about one hundred
years, but the supply of soft coal
may last longer, hutj at the rate
we are using them, they will give
out some time in the next cen
tury. "Do vou not see that the door
of hope to the future opens
through the school-room, and
that it is our business to fit the
boys for the problem of the. fu
ture? If I should carry a bucket
of water to the top of this build
ingaudpour it to the ground, I
would liberate as much energy as
it took force to carry it up there.
The sun is drawing water up in
the sky where it is condensed
and deposited on the earth which
feeds our streams. Some one
has said that rain enough falls on
the earth every year to form ten
Mississippi rivers. In the past
ten years, the possibilities of Mis
souri have been diminishing, but
north of St. Louis, they are now
building a dam which, when fin
ished, will make St. Louis one of
the great manufacturing centers
of the United States. The elec
tricity which will be generated at
the dam will be sent to St Louis
and then formed Into new centers
of industry.
"If you ever get to Niagra
Falls, visit the factory where
shredded biscuit is made, the
cleanest lactory on the earth, and
you will see how the Foils are
helping to feed this great multi
tude. Some one has said that it
would take all of the coal mined
in the earth in one year to fur
nish enough power to draw back
the water which falls over the
Falls in one day, and that the cars
to draw this coal would reach 2
times around the earth at the
Equator. The time is coming
that the farm will be most yalua
ble that has a stream of water
upon it, and I understand that
there is a farm in Michigan that
has a stream upon it that cooks
the meals, heats the bouse, &c.

white coal. There was a time
when it was dependent upon
Germany for its supply of coal
It is now getting from its glaciers
and snow capped mountans, the
power which light their houses
and drives the machinery of their
factories. The day is not far
distant when the electricity that
is generated by those streams,
will drive the trains instead of
locomotives on the Swiss tracks.
"This should show to the aver
age teacher the problem thet is
before us. 1 think it should re
ceive attention m every High
School and in every Geography
class in the common school
"Our coal fields are owned by
two railroads, and a few corpora
tions who always get what they
want, especially in our State
Now, suppose the water powers
pass into the hands of a few indi
viduals or ' corporations, then
they will control all of the indus
tries and these will soon control
our Government Politically,
we are still free.
"J. J. Hill brought out the fact
that the soil of the farms are
being exhausted from the East
to the West Ue showed that the
farms are going down through
wrong methods of farming. It
takes nature ten thousand years
to make a soil one foot in thick
ness and the farmer may ruin
that soil in ten years so that it is
unfit for agriculture. Today, we
are the best fed, the best clothed
and the best housed people on
the face of the earth. Shall this
continue? But this Washington
Meeting opened its door of Hope
to the future and that door of
hope is through the school"

Maxims For Teachers.
The following suggestionsgiven
to the pupils in Ipswich Sem
inary, where Mary Lyon was
teacher sixty years ago, may be
helpful to the teachers of today:
Accustom yourselves to such
entire control over your feelings
that impudence from a pupil will
uot occasion a ruby cheek.
Adapt the length of your les
sons to the capacity of your
scholars.
Administer reproof kindly.
Aim to make every lesson in
teresting. Always form a definite plan be
fore you commence school
Avoid having favorites in
school.
Avoid such remarks concern
ing your scholars is could not
safely be repeated to them.
Be careful not to have children
feel that they are to be paid for
doisrg well
Be willing to devote your whole
time to your school, and to make
the best use of it
. Do not forbid play as a punish
meat, but rather forbid studv.
.Congressman Focht Bankrupt
Benjamin K. Focht of Lewis
burg, Congressman from this
District, on Wednesday last filed
in the Federal Court at Scran ton,
a voluntary petition in bankrupt
cy. His liabilities apprximate
$275,000 and his assets are $175,
000, consisting of real estate,
bonds and stocks, the latter large

A hint to any loving wife who
is in a quandary about determin
ing what to present as a Christ
mas gift to her husband. Mrs.
MacVeagh, wife of Secretary
Wayne MacVeagh, is having a
house built and furnished at a
cost of a million dollars as a gift
for her husband. Most husbands
would accept such a gift with
thanks even if it cost a little less
than a million.
The Famous
A
tft
Does Not Strain the Eyes
Don't use a small, concentrated light
over one shoulder. It puts an unequal
strain on your eyes. Use a diffused, soft,
mellow light that cannot flicker, that equal
Izes the work of the eyes, such as the Kayo
Lamp gives, and avoid eye strain.
The Rayo is designed to give the
best light, and it does.
It has a strong, durable shade-holder
that is held firm and true. A new burner
gives added strength. Made of solid
brass and finished .In nickel. Easy to
keep polished. The Rayo is low priced,
but no other lamp gives a better light at
any price.

Our bank never fails to give as good service to the
farmer as it gives to any business man. As a mat
ter of fact few banks could exist in this day and
age of the world without the co-operation of the
farmers. Often a farmer can make money by
borrowing. Do not hesitate to call on us when
you want money. We welcome a responsible
borrower quite as heartily as a substantial deposit- .
. er. It will pay every farmer to carry a checking
account with us. why not come in and talk it .
over with us to-day? Accounts may be opened
by mail and monies deposited or withdrawn in
this way with equal facility. We make a special
ty of serving the farmer.
We Pay 3 Per Gent. Interest.
