This is what life means to me: a
place where a Father deals different-
ly unto His children, but with all in
love; a place where true joys do not
hang on material pegs, and where all
the time the fact that God our father
is on His throne lines
with gold. —W. T. Grenfell.
A Time for Rejoicing
This singular announcement was
to be seen recently outside a certain
place of worship:
“This evening the Rev Mr. X. will
preach his farewell sermon and the
choir will render a thanksgiving hymn
especially composed for the occa-
sion.”
The Fisherman’s Prayer.
Oh, suffer me to land a fish,
So large that even I,
In talking of it afterwards,
May never have to lie—The Ram-
bler.
The small daughter of a practicing
physician, who evidently has an eye
to business, told her mother, in no un-
certain 1erms that she must call at
once on their new neighbor.
“And, why must I call on her?” ask-
‘ed the mother, amused at thechild’s
positiveness.
“Well, in the first place,” explained
the little lady, “they've got three of
the scrawniest kids, and the mother
herself doesn’t look very strong.
The New Sin
A San Francisco man tells this
one: In a police court of my town a
policeman rose to make a charge a-
gainst his prisoner. .
“ ‘Wnat’s this feiler Hnarced with?
demanded the magistrijte.
“ ‘Bigotry, judge,’ seid the officer;
‘he’s got three wives.”
A Modern Battle
A military attache said at a Wash-
ington luncheon:
“Modern warfare has no pictur-
esqueness, no beauty. A wounded sol-
dier at Charleroi was asked to de:
scribe his impressions of a modern
battle. He eased his face bandages
and replied:
“A modern battle! What's it like?
Well, first you hear a deuce of a noise
and then the nurse says, “Try and
take a swallow 0’ this.”—Washing-
ton Star.

MAKE THE ROADS BEAU-
TIFUL AS WELL AS SAFE.
Many citizens are not aware that
there are laws in Pennsylvania
which prohibit the erection of un-
sightly signs, posters and other forms
of advertisements along the public
roads. On State highways, the State
Highway Department has issued or-
ders that all of these advertisements
be removed.
Why not go a step further and on
the “State-wide Good Roads Day,”
Wednesday, May, 25, cause these rei-
ics of a past age to be torn down on
the county roads? They have no bus-
iness there and few people like to see
them. THE PROPER PLACE TO
ADVERTISE IS IN THE NEWSPA-
PERS. There is no reason why the
beauties of nature should be distort-
ed in this way. Let every county or-
ganization, which is working to im-
prove the highways on the “State-
wide Good Roads Day,” aim to beau-
tify * these roads as well as to put
them in passable condition.
The petition of the White Oak
Light, Heat & Power Company to re-
strain the Borough of Holsopple
from installing a street lighting sys-
tem, was heard before the Public
Service Commission recently at Har-
risburg. The light company was rep-
resented by Attorney Clarence L.
Shaver, of Somerset, and Attornay
Davis, of Johnstown. The borough’s
side was presented by Chas. W. Walk-
er, Esq. of Somerset and Frank P.
Barnhart, of Johnstown. A decision
will be handed down later, only the
arguments having been heard on
Friday.
