The seventeenth annual convention of the School Directors’ Association of Somerset County will be held in the Assembly Room of the Court House on Tuesday and Wednesday, January 14th and 15th. A program for the con- vention, prepared by County Saperin- tendent Seibert, has been sent to all of the school directors. The topics assigned for discussion are as follows: “The New Minimum Salary and Its Effect Upon Our Schools,” D. A. Floto, W. T. Geddes. Thomas E. Null. “The Resignation of Teachers—Its Effect, Its Prevention, ete.” R. W. Lohr, L. S. Lincoln, W. 8. Matthews. “The Director’s Duty in School Sani- tation,” Dr. R. T. Pollard, Dr. O. J. Shank, Dr. W. 8. Kuhlman. Prof. R. M. McNeal, of the State De- partment of Instruction, will discuss “The Business Phase of School Admin- istration,” “The School Director and Public Sentiment,” and “The Educa- tional Phase of School Administration.” “The (Gradation of Teachers’ Sala- ries,” Charles R. Hay, L.. L. Yoder, Dr. M. V. Sorber. “Township High Schoole,” Dr. C. F, Livengood, C. L. Shaver, J. M. Lambert. J. H. Gumbert. “Economy in Employing the Best Qualified Teachers,” L. A. Hay, L. C. Boyer, E. L. Knepper, Pierce Miller. “Music in the Public Schools.” Jacob J. Walker. “Truancy—Its Cause, Its tion,” the Rev. W. C. Sykes, M. Speicher, Wm. Engle, J. H. Hentz. “The Value of Directors’ Conven- tions,” the Rev. A. 8. Glessner. Other features of the program will be the annual address of J. M. Cook, pres- ident of the Association, Topical Talks by F. G. Fryburg and the Rev. D.S. Weimer, Kindergarten Remarks by L: C. Colborn, and a drill by the pupils of the kindergarten. An attractive feature of the conven- tion will be a free lecture on Tuesday evening, by Dr. W. T. Sherman Culp, a man with mirth and a mission, who has been on the lecture platform for a number of years with great success. He has been called again and again to the same places. His subject will be “Uncrowned Kings.” The school directors’ convention is to the director what thie annual teachers’ institute is to the teacher, and the di- rector who takes an interest in school work will be there. Under a recent act of Assembly, directors are allowed two dollars a day and mileage at the rate of three cents. so that there can be little excuse from that source for not attending the convention. The teacher iz not wholly responsible for the condition of the school. Back of the teacher is the board of directors who, after all, are the court of last re- rort. With them rests the final decis- ion whether the schools shall be good or bad, says the Somerset Standard. Preven- Ww. TS eet Bowling News A New Power Has Arisen in Sporting Circles. Some time has elapsed since any towling n>ws appeared in our columans, ne interest in the American game of ten pins has for some time appeared to he on the wane. However, consider- able interest has lately been aroused in 1 eal sporting circles in games played hetween the erstwhile Salisbury Cham- pions and a local scrub team that had gufficient sand to go up against the Champions in a contest. And what makes the interest in the sport all the more intense, is the fact that the Scrubs have demonstrated their ability fo beat the Champions most .unmerci- fully. On evening three games Monday ‘were pulled off between the Cham- pions and the Scrubs, two of which were won by the {8crubs. Following are the scores: First gnme—Cham- pions, 708; Scrubs, 779. Second game— Champions, 779; Serubs, 623. Third game—Champions, 6867 ; Scrubs, {98 In the last of the three games men- tioned, the Scrubs piled up the highest score ever made by any team on the Salisbury ten pin alleys. Last night three more games were played on the home alleys by the two teams aforesaid, the Scrubs again win- ning two of them. Following are the scores: First game—Champions, 707; Scrubs, 892. Secondigame—Champions, 628; Scrubs, 732. Third game—Cham- pions, 674; Scrubs, 780. The Scrub team, Monday evening, was composed of Harry Reitz, Robt. Gibson, Jr., Clyde Wagner, Peter Fate and Emory Musser. Last night John Schramm took the place of Gibson in the Scrub team. Owingto a charitable feeling for the erstwhile Champions, and in consideration of the good work they have done in defeating the other teams in the bowling league, not publish their names at this time, for it might cause them to feel bad. As to the league games, concerning which this paper has given no report for some time, suffice it to say that the Berlin team seems to be somewhat in the lead, in the present series of con- tests for the championship, while Mey- ersdale has pulled its team entirely out of the contest, owing to its inability to be even common amusement for its rivals. A couple of weeks ago Salisbury de- feated Somerset three straight games on the Salisbury alleys, and in turn was beaten three games on the Berlin alleys, by the Berlin team,by a narrow margin. we will || Despairing Lover—— Hilda, have You nothing to say in answer to the letter I wrote to you last Thursday?
