Bad Boys Want to Entice Ed
itor Moyer's College Girls.
Last week's Freeburg Courier
s-iys : Two of Sclinsgrovc's smart
young men, whom we designate as
Mr.B.and Mr.G., came to Freeburg
on Monday night for the purjMise of
enticing some of the College girls
from their rooms. They placed their
horse in one of the private stables
of one of their accomplices. At
eleven o'clock when all was quieL
ami the town lioys gone to their
homes, these smart young men ap
proached the College building,
inrowmg stones and cans on the va
randa to attract the ladies' attention,
but they were soundly asleep and
the boys returned home sorrowfully.
As this is not the first time the Di
rector has been annoyed by similar
attempts, he gives notice that a repe
tition of the offense will bring all
concerned before the Judge of the
Courts for his consideration. Per
sons who are 80 low and mean to as
sist the hoys in their annoyance
should be dealt with in accor lance
with Delaware justice meted out at
the Whipping Post.
Can We Get It?
A shirt manufacturer in a town in
the eastern part of the state employ
ing about fifty hands with about
92,000 monthly pay roll, is looking
about for place to locate with his
factory, lie wants an $800 bonus
from the town to locate such a plant.
Cannot Centre Hall's energetic citi
zens get sufficient movement on them
to have this plant locate here'.' 1 1
would be the greatest benefit to all
lines of business, and give employ
ment to the many young people who
arc compelled to seek employment
outside the place. A lioard of trade
might succeed in securing such en
terprises. A fitting example may
lie cited in across the Snyder Coun
ty line in Middleburg, a town of
little more opulatiou than Centre
Hall, where its citizens secured a
shoe factory which went a-bidding.
The plant now employs sixty hands j
ana is one 01 tne uest tilings tne
town ever had. Centre Hall Re
porter. $650 TO $1200 A YEAR.
We want reliable and energetic
men and women in each State to
travel and Appoint agents; salary
$050 to $1200 a year and expenses,
guaranteed and paid weekly ; no ex
perience required, we instruct you.
Local Representatives wanted also.
