Why was it built in that particularlocality? Prove to us that your city is of great importance in the world. The teacher remarked that the les- son would be in the form of discussion and pointed out sources of additional information This teacher informed her yisitor that she and her pupils were studying the countries from an international standpoint. They were finding out how every country is dependent upon every other country teday for some- thing—why there should be peace among all. ; In the assignment—the lesson was on the British Isles— three pupils were given Londen, three Leeds, ete. When the class met next day for recitation no time map had been sketched on the board —a mer itline, free hand.’ On the | board the names of the city had been | written with wide spaces between. When: London was called, one pupil with crayon, marked its position on the map... Each told all he had found about the city—its position on the Thames, its nearness to other eoun- tries, the famous abbey and other buildings of interest. One member of | the class produced some pictures of bnildings in London which were shown to the class. All of these points were recorded on the blackboard under (Le name of London. Manchester was taken up in the same way. This is the greatest cotton cloth manufacturing city in the world. Twenty-five thousand miles of cloth are made there every year. Great cargoes of cotton (the teacher intem rupted to ask, ‘‘From where ?”’) from the U. 8. and Egypt go to Manchester on the ship canal by way of Liver. pool. Here some one said, ‘‘So Manches- ter depends in her shipping upon my city, Liverpool.” Another said, ‘‘Or my city, London, for London isn’t so far from Russian, German and Scan- danayian markets.””. The Manchester was quick to answer, ‘‘Could Liver- pool’s ecommerce be so great if it were not for Manchester’s factories ?”’ Sheffield and Leeds spoke up and showed how they also contributed to the prosperity of Liverpool and Lon don. Then one of the London pupils produced ‘‘Old Curiosity Shop,’’ and said, ‘‘Everything is not from the money side. It was Dickens and Tennyson and others who lived in London and gaye us s9 much wonder ful literature.” e All agreed that this was a good point. Next Belfast was called. Everyone looked full of expectation. No re sponse. Then one boy said, ‘I can’t boom Bel ast much because I’m for Leeds, but they do make the finest linen in the world there.” Then began the discussion as to where these articles were sold, the ports entered, the articles bought in return, ete. At the close of the lesson the teach- er asked, '‘What, to you, was the most important point in this lesson 2”? Suggestions were given and these which ‘seemed to stand out most prominently were recorded upon the board. (1.) All nations are, in some way, dependent upon all other na- tions. (2.) Peace and good will are strong factors in ‘the exchange of products and ideas. . The conduct of the lesson has this suggestion for teachers, that the work was coming out of the pupils and they were enjoying the process: The teacher merely directed nd offered suggestions. erm Io Big stock of the very finest alomi- num ware just received. at ad Habel & Philligs. —eeeeeee For Rent.

BROUGHT SUIT AGAINST MARYLAND CASUAL1Y COMPA The Farmers National Bank, of Somerset, on Tresday brought suit to recouer the sum of $20,000 from the Maryland Casualty Company, of Bal- timore, Md., the amount of the bond furnished by Heury F. Barron, 4 cashier of the bauk, who committed suicide by shooting himself in the right temple on September 11, 1913. The bank alleges that the defendant furnished it a bond in which the cast - nalty company agreed to reimburse the plaintiff to the extent of $20,000 for loss of moneys, securities, or other personal property it might sustain by any dishonest act or acts committed by Barron, the plaintiff bank’s ca ashier in the performance of his duties dur- ing a period of three years. from Sep- tember 4, 1910 to September 4, 1913. The bank states that it has paid all premiums on the bond, amounting to $160, and complied with all other re- quirements of the bond, but alleges that the bonding company was notified of such shortages on March 14, 1913. Barron was prosecuted for embez- zlement by the bank in the U. 8S. district court, but committed suicide before the day of his trial. An inter- esting question of the bonding com- pany’s liability now arises. as it was understood that the bank would have to conviet Barron of the offense charged before it could recover the amount of the bond, which is less than half the amount alleged to have been embezzled. To furthur complicate the matter there are rumors that apparently are believed by some, although the same ‘may be groundless, to the effect that is not dead. Some profess to believe that Barron merely simulated suicide. In view of such stories which have been spread far and wide in various ways, it is not unlikely that Barron’s body may be exhumed. He was in- terred in a private mausoleum at a cost of about $5000. REV. YOUNT TO LEAVE MEYERSDALE: Rev. J.- A.
