SCHOOL BOARD
FACES PROBLEM
.
The raiu Monday night revealed s3v
eral leaks lu the roof of the first ward
school building. The ceiling ill at j
least two of the rooms that were new
ly caloituiued show where the water
has leakod through.
The roof of the first ward building
lias been examined and. repaired dur
ing the last few weaks. Unfortunate*
ly the slate is old, having been ou the
roof for some thirty year*. It is said
to be in such a condition as to make a
good job of repairing difficult or im
possible. A new roof is needed.
NEW HARD FINISH NEEDED.
The first ward building as well as
much of its furniture undoubtedly has
readied a stage when repairs are of
doubtful economy. This is especially
true of the walls of the high school
room, which have been calcimined.
The result is far from satisfactory.
At many places ou the walls the hard
finish lias shelled off or hangs very in
secure. Ou the uneven aud variegat
ed surface the calcimine was applied
with the belief probably that the effect
would be all that was desired. The
result sought, however, was only par
tially achieved, aud the walls look
badly. To make matters worse siuce
calciiuiniug the har d fiuish, where it
has au insecure hold, is beginning to
shell off revealing the white plaster
beneath.
The chairman of the committee on
repairs at a recent meeting warned the
school board that the first ward build
ing was in a bad condition aud that a
large sum of money would be needed
for repairs.
It would hardly be fair to say that
the building this year has been slight
ed iu the way of repairs. The condi
tion of affairs ouly sho-v that tie
chainnau of the committee iu question
spoke with full knowledge and that as
relates to the iirst ward building the
school board is truly up against a
difficult proposition.

HAD FLESH TORN
FROM RIGHT ARM
His right arm caught iu the machine
which he was operating and literally
pulled to pieces, was the horrible ex
perieuce Monday afteruoou of Percy
Steward, an employe in the drying
department of the Magee Carpet mill,
Bloocusburg.
Steward was engaged iu shoving
back Bouie escaping skeius when the
accident ocourred. His hand became
fast iu the yarn and it was drawn
around the shaft completey pulling his
entire hand aud the flesh alaiost to his
elbow, from his arm leaving the two
naked bones fr<"; his elbow to the
wrist, protruding from his sleeve.
It was a terrible sight aud one which
could be witnessed for any length of
time bv cnly a few of his fellow em
ployes who succeeeded in temporarily
baudagiug the wouud until the buggy
was gotteu iu readiness and he was
taken to the hospital. Steward display
ed a remarkable degree of nerve and
walked to the buggy unassisted. He
was at cnce takeu to the hospital
where the arm vas amputated just
abova the elbow. It is not thought
the injury will result seriously.

VISIT TO DIXON
DECLARED OFF
The councilmaulc committee on sew - j
ers, which together with the president j
of council, had planned to visit Har
rishurg Monday and confer with Dr. i
Samuel G. Dixcu relative to the caaal j
at the last moment decided that under |
existing conditions the couteiuplated
visit could not yield auy rjsults and
the better plau would be to declare it
off.
The hospital trustees at their last
meeting made it clear that nothing i
can be done at present to relieve con- j
ditlons, no matter what agencies may
ba invoked. The report of the proceed
ings, printed in these columns Friday ,
morning, were satisfactorily explicit
aud revealed what the trustees are up
against. Sewage iu some quantity, it
was admitted, is draining iuto the
ciual for the time being for the ren
s3u that its flow can not be checked.
The trustees expressed regret and
showed their sincerity by at once tak
ing steps to have the sewage diverted
fro n the canal. That such relief iu
still a week or more iu the future does
not detract from the gool intent'ein of
the trustees aud show that all is not
being done that Is possible iu the pro
misee.
lia Everhart, chairman ot the com
uiittee on sowers, Monday stated that
the explanation given by the trustees
seemed perfectly satisfactory to the
committee. Hence, the visit was do
| Glared off. Later, if the trustees fail
to make good all their promises,- it
will be time enough to invoke the aid
of the State department of health.
Monday was set apart by Dr. Dix
on for the purpose of meeting the
cummlttee from Danville. Therefore,
early iu the day Mr. Everhart- wired
the State departmeut of health ap
prising it that the committee would
uot be ou hand.

TO KEEP CENSDS |!
ODT OF POLITICS 1
Iu a Utter addressed to Secretary j
j Nagel of the department of commerce |
aud labor, President Taft has served
> notice that auv man engaged iu the <
takiug of the thirteenth census of the

casting their votes the Presideut be
j lieves that ceusus supervisors and en-
I urnerators should keep clear of auy

j The Presideut orders that the Sec
| retary of Commerce and Labor aud the
j director of tiie census embody in the
regulations goveruing tlie taking of
the census the rule so forcibly laid
dewu iu his letter.
Mr. Taft says that in appoiuting j
ceusus supervisors it has beeu found
necessary to select men recommended
by senators and congressmen iu their
districts. He says he realizes that this
method of selection might easily be
perverted to political purposes and it
is to take the census out of politics,so
far as the actual work is concerned,
; that he has explicitly expressed his de
; sires as to the regulations.
President Taft has told tlie repre
sentatives aud senators who have
urged various men for ceunis places
that he would insist that no active
S partisan should ba named aud that no
■ attempt should be made to build up a
political machiue iu any Stnte or dis- j
trict through the distribution of the |

oar local dealeis, Saturday was otter
ing one dollar per bushel for wheat.
Large quantities of wheat were sold
for over a dollar per bushel the pres
ent seasiu. Theie were farmers, how
ever, who declined to sell at the high
est figure and held out for a better
price. Whether wheat will soar again
surpassing or even reaching the form

' doubt.

FURNISHING MINORS
WITH CIGARETTES
It is a notorious faot that there art ,
many minors fast becoming addicted
to the cigarette habit. So far as the
boy is concerned, it is tip to him aud
his pareuts to the extent of his own
action iu the matter of smoking. Hut
beyond the personal habit,there is an
other responsible party—the tobacco 1
dealer. A boy cannot smoke cigaret- i
tea unless he tan get the stuff, the
cigarettes or the papers. Now the sel'- \
lug of either to a minor is a mis
demeanor, the penalty upon couvic '
tion being a fine of not more than S3OO '
cor lesN than SIOO. Where do the boys ;
I get tiie "dope," as they term it, with j
[as much comprehension as their eld- j
I res? Get it they do somewhere, either j
! directly from the dealers or through
I some individual who ought to know
! better. But the law is plain here. It |
j re,vis that if any person shall furnish !
ur cigarette papers, by gift,
sale or otherwise the same penally at-!
taches. Every man who furnishes iu
auv maimer the "coflin nail?" to min- |
ors violates the low and ta'.es t i« risk

Child urinates too often, if the urine scald 3
the flesh, or if, when the child reaches au
age when it should be able to control the
passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet
ting, depend upon it, the cause of the diffi
culty is kidney trouble, and the first
1 step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleasant
'. trouble is due to a diseased condition of
the kidneys and bladder and not to a
; habit as most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made miser

I and both need the same great remedy.
