town, renewing old acquaintan
ces, and incidentally conducting
a field class in botany. The pro
fessor is a native of McConnells
burg. and taught his first term
of school in Belfast township in
180(5-7. It was the Philip Mor-
gret school. While forty-eight
years have elapsed since that
time, Mr. Hughes has vivid rec
ollections of the parents and pu
pils of that district that winter,
and he had the usual experiences
attending a teacher in his "first
school."
An enormous storage dam is
being built at Roxbury, Franklin
county, for power purposes of
generating electricity. To make
the storage area larger, a chan
nel was cut from the creek to a
field which was surrounded by a
concrete wall. We print this
item for the occasion it offers us
to remind ourselves of how Lick
ing Creek is running on to the
sea without playing its part in
the production of cheap power to
light he home3 and turn the
grindstones in that thickly popu
lated valley.

Sunday at Green Hill.
One of the editors of the News
had the pleasure of attending the
children's services in the Green
Hill churches last Sunday. The
Methodists held their meeting in
the morning, and the Presbyter
ians, theirs in the afternoon.
Both churches were crowded to
to the fullest capacity. Three or
four families did not go home for
dinner, but camped on the church
green and had dinner, picnic style
The horses were fed too and fin
ished on bluegrass, after which
the campers attended services at
the Presbyterian church. Both
churches were tastefully decora
ted with great masses of rhodo
dendron, ferns, and other wild
flowers and foliage. It would be
out of the question for us to pub
lish the programs, but we must
say they were fine, and must
have cost the superintendents,
teachers, and workers, much time
and patience. The little folks
did well, and we are sure that
the end for which these days are
set apart was accomplished, name
ly,' the awakening and retaining
of the interest of the rising gen
eration in the great work of the
Sunday Schools.
Birtday Surprise.
The many friends of Blaine J.
Hixson gathered and surprised
him in honor of his twenty-first

The time was pleasantly spent
in music, games, and social talk
till the midnight hour, when re
freshments consisting of Ice

les, candy etc were served.

useful presents and appreciates
them all.

Nothing adds more to the refinements of home than
good music. To have good music you must have a good
instrument. There are good bad and indifferent instru
ments, and to the unskilled eye they look much alike.
The unprincipled dealer is likely to make 'you pay a
first-class price for a fourth-class instrument. I have
lived in this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and
in a position to make good any business transactions.
Buy your piano, organ, or victrola from me and if it is
not all right you can come back at me.
There are families in every part of this county that
have purchased instruments from me. Ask them about
me.
Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano,
or Player.Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See
me. Let's talk it over.
