a great deal of valuable time grinding

hich should have been appropriated
to the Instruction of the tearhers In
tbelr arduous work of educating the
youth. We do not know whether
this la customary in Institutes In this
8tate. If It is, there la great need of
a reform. A great deal of time was
taken up In the discussion of salaries
for teachers, and even so prominent a
paper as the Philadelphia 1'rtM took
occasion to editorially criticise the di
rectors of one of the townships in this
county for paying their teachers only
$18 per month. The teachers plead
for more pay, the directors brought
in the argument that It was all they
had asked and the attempts to rest the
blame on any particular one was real
ly laughable. In our estimation the
matter could have been settled very
easily by giving only a little consider
ation to the subject of "supply and
demand," and In this particular case
supply evidently exoneds the demand,
hence the low bids to teach. Do
you ask us how to cut down the sup
ply? Well, that is an easy matter.

Christmas passed off quietly in Mid
dleburgh, with the exception of the
few who auspiciously inaugurated the
day tackling the too weighty propor

made them unsteady In gait, and hila
rloua la actions. Aiiudleburgn can
boast of but comparatively few of the
"regulars," but their ranks, was filled
by young recruits, who evidently la
bored under the mistaken idea that
it waa a credit to get uncommon
ly full on this particular day. It waa
the first offence with most of them
and hence may have been a mistake
and those who hold them near aud

them luto their former good standing

other Is by saying true things. If th

revolution In the price of coal lately
at this place. Stove coal that sold at
$4.80 now sells at $4.00; and Pea coal
that sold at $3.00 now sells at 12.10.
For this decline the consumers are in
debted to the fact that the Philia. &
Reading Co. established a coal-yard at
Shamokiu Dam and sell coal at above
prices. Should aald company build a
branch road down to our place there
will be a at 'II greater reduction In the
price of coal as well as in o, r mat
ters, such as) passenger fare, .freight
charges and express churgas. This
town has been outrageously imposed
upon In these respects; and we are all
looking to the Reading company for
relief, and hope it will soon come.'
