So also most men change. The methods of yesterday are not those of today nor will those of, the present be in vogue tomor row. The man who will not change is a check on progress- he retards the onward march of others. At the recent term of court held in Bedford not a single crim inal case was heard. This record i3 equalled by the one held the previous week in Mifllin county where there was no criminal busi ness. These courts are presided over by Judge Woods, the anti license Judge.

"Our common schools have fail ed signally to cultivate general intelligence" shouts an educator of thirty years' ex perience. This gentleman leaves us in the dark as to the reason why the boys and girls of some of the families attending the same school, devel op more intelligence than those having equal chance, from other families. Misses Cora Doran and Ruth McGeehe of Burnt Cabins, and Harry Montague of Decorum, suf fered a mishap while sleighing. While . trotting along they met a team and in turning out to pass it their sleigh upset and all were thrown out Miss Doran sufTer ed a cut on her cheek and bruis ed and scratched her hands. The other occupants of the sleigh es caped injury. One of our exchanges asks the significant question, Has the cig arette law been forgotten? and quotes a dealer in that town as claiming that there are signs of laxity in the observance of the law forbidding dealers to sell to boys, as well as prohibiting boys from smoking them, and compell ing the boys to tell who sold or gave them the "coffin nails." Mr. C. II. Mann, postmaster and general merchant at Saluvia, this county, left this place on the five o'clock bus last Saturday morning for Philadelphia where he will purchase a round trip ticket for southern parts of Flo rida.

Yes there will be rivalry, good Chris tian enthusiastic rivalry. An d why not? One of our Supts. vis iting in Philadelphia heard of the Big Week Movement as reported by our papers and at once drop ped the secretary a letter with a self addressed stamped Envelope for a reply asking for further in formation. That is what I call "Being Alive." Iam confident that you will pull Fulton County out into the Front Line Schools and Advanced Standard for the County this Summer. You re member how splendidly and quick ly you responded Last Fall to sub scribe to the S. S. Patronage Movement for expenses When the call came for at least Fifty to give one dollar each. As Secy, this gives me confidence that you will do things this Summer. Here is the plan for the Big Week. Every Supt. will begin now to line up two strong teams in his Sabbath School. Two lead ers appointed to "choose up" as we used to do when we wanted to play a game of ball. Each team select a name. Each team will write out a list of names of the people who do not belong to a Cradle Roll, a Home Depart ment or a Sabbath School of its own Community. Then mem bers of each team will go by two m or lour or a dozen or more at a time and ask every body to en roll in the school. The week when the general canvass for each school will be made is the Big Week. On March 15 the Score will be counted by each Sec. of the school and the New Membership reported to the Sec of the County. Next week some more about this work. Robt. E. Peterman, Secretary.
