OMISSION.
In the obituary of Albert Koeppe
last week, we failed to mention the
name of his son, Harvey Koeppe, who
resides at No. 117 Singer St., Johns-
town. The ommission is due to the
fact that nothing was mentioned about
the son when we secured our data for
the obituary. Mr. Koeppe said that
he was at Cumberland at the time of
his father’s death and had not been
apprised of the fact. He was in town
on, Saturday for a short time and re-
turned on Monday.

GRADUATES TO VISIT
WASHINGTON.
The graduating class of Somerset
High School will visit Washington,
D. O., instead of holding the custom-
ary commencement at the close of
the school term next May, according
to plans announced and it is
beligged that the students will derive
more benefit from the trip than from
lectures heard at commencement ex-
ercises. It is also expected that with
‘a trip fo the national capital at the
goal there will be more incentive for
students to complete the course of
study.
