'OLDEST AND STRONGEST'
The Monroe Doctrine.
President Monroe in his seventh
annual message (Dec. 2, 1823)
laid down the principle of what
has since been known as the
Monroe doctrine, thus:
"We owe it to candor and to
the amicable relations existing
between the United States and
those (great European) powers
to declare that' we should consid
er any attempt on their part to
extend their system to this hem
isphere as dangerous to our peace
and safety. With the existing
colonies or dependencies of any
European power we have not in
terfered and shall not interfere
but with the governments who
have declared their independence
and maintained it and whose in
dependence we have on great
consideration and on just princi
pies acknowledged we would not
view any interposition for the
purpose of oppressing them or
controlling in any other manner
their destiny by any European
power in any other light than as
a manifestation of aD unfriendly
disposition toward the United
States."

Cholera.
Keep plenty of charcoal where
fowls can get it all times. Very
sour milk kept constantly before
poultry aids greatly in keeping
cholera away. If a fowl shows
symtoms of cholera, and you
wish to save it, put it in a box
with plenty of light, but the
sick bird must not be permitted
to pickup and swallow so much
as a bit of grit, grass or any
solid food. Place sour milk in
the box and the bird if not too
far gone, will drink sufficient to
keep it alive and at the same
time, the acid helps to kill the
cholera germs in the intestines. J
But the secret is nothing else
but the sour milk must enter the
craw or all good effects will be
lost
Examinations.
The examinations at the three
Teachers' Normal Schools in the
county will be held as follows:
Hustontown, June 28th: Burnt
Cabins, June 29th; McConnells
burg, July 12th:
Any applicant from any one of
the three Normal Schools may
take the examination at either
of the other Normal Schools in
stead of the one he is attending
if he prefer, ,but no applicant
will be permitted to take more
than one of the above examina
tions. Respectfully,
. J. Emery Thomas,
2t County Supt.
The $100 Bond.
It has been carefully estimated
that the proceeds of one $100
Liberty Loan Bond will fully
clothe, arm, and equip one Ameri
can soldier. Each purchaser oi
a Liberty Loan Bond for $100
may feel that his or her money
is doing its individual part in
the arming and equipping of one
of our country's soldiers. To
some who wish that they cou'd
actively serve their country in
the field but who have been de
nied this privilege this gives a
specifics tangible nature to an
investment in a Liberty Loan
Bond.
The local Chautauqua reading
circle held a business meeting
last Saturday evening and among
other things, it was decided to
purchase a set of Ridpath's his
tory costing between thirty-five
and forty dollars, the books to
be placed in the public school
library. This will be the f econd
set oT looks presented to the
school by the Circle.
