bounds; it matters a great deal what you receive in

Editoii Herald: The Jews are now
observing the Passover. The observance
continues to the 15th Inst. It is a remem
brance of more than 3,000 years ago, when
their forefathers, under the leadership of
the great and world-renowned General
and law and bible giver, Moses, fought
against the despot and tyrant, Pharoah,
King of Egypt. The Jews were the first
people in the world's history to fight for
freedom. Although at that time they
were slaves, they fought against one of
the strongest of Kings. It was by the
love of freedom that Moses was firsl
introduced to them and by the help of
God that they overpowered the enemy,
the King and soldiers of Egypt. All over
the world, wherever the Jew resides, on
the1 farm, as well as In the city, he will

. t " t. It A l u..
;ons ot a newspaper uvwr ucu m mc
ity. It wllrWprofusely and beautl
fully illustrated and cover the rapid
gvowth and natural advantages and re
Sources of Shenandoah, which will be
excellently portrayed by experienced
newspaper men.
This edition will positively not be of
the catch-penny order, and will not be
issued as a drag net for advertising. The
publication will be a first class and
beautifully printed nnd illustrated his
torical issue, giving a history of the town
and all its public departments (Including
an exhaustive review of the public school
system) for the past thirty years. This Is
a souvenir edition not an ordinary anni
versary issue and will entail an Immense
xpendltureon the part of the publishers.
The souvenir will bo sold at five
cents a copy. Shenandoah possesses
every advantage in location and enter
prise, toge ther with excellent water and
every Inducement for manufacturing
purposes. The steam ruilroads, the Le
high Valley, Reading and Pennsylvania,
connect us with the principal markets of
the country, and two trolley systems
brings us within touch of all surround
ing towns. In audition to tnls coal can
be purchased nt a merely nominal figure
from the mines that surround us and
which contain an inexhaustible supply,
To bring all these facts forcibly
to the attention of the outside world must
result in great benefit to the
town and this the HERALD has under
taken single handed. It will be a great
task, but the HERALD feels confident of
Its ability to carry It through successfully,
and it will certainly succeed If the bust
uess people and prominent people of the
town will contribute a little help. A re
view of Shenandoah's leading Industries,
professional men and business houses will
also be incorporated in the Issue and the
whole will be a fit for addition to libraries.
As is customary on the part of all pub
lication houses, the HERALD will reserve
a limited number of pages of the edition
for use of advertisers, to whom the issue
will be of Immense advantage. The
souvenir will be given a circulation over
the entire state and copies of it will reach
every individual mentioned in the
columns. This will carry the souvenir
south, west and north as far as Georgia,
Louisiana, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah,
Montana, Washington, Wisconsin and
Michigan, where ex-Shenandoah residents
are plentiful. As a local advertising
medium the issue will excel anything
heietofore attempted In Schuylkill county
and to foreign advertisers desiring to
cover an Immense field effectively and at
a nominal cost It will be a boon
Particular attention Is called to the
fact that an authentic history of Shen-
nndoah has never been published. The
town has been Incorporated thirty years,
yet a history of any of Its departments
cannot be found outside the covers of the
books that have been kept by the secre
taries of the Council and the School
Board.
The publishers aro gratified with the
encouragement they have received from
ex residents ot the town residing at dls
tant points. Judge Bartcb, of the United
States Court of Utah, and who was
formerly superintendent of the public
schools here, has Bent an order for a
hundred coplis of the souvenir, and Prof,
L. A. Freeman, of Providence, R. I., who
is also ex-BUperlntbndent of our schools,
has sent In a similar order. Today an
order for a large number of copies was re
ceived from Dr. J. E. Shadle, of St.
Paul. Minn,, who was the borough physl
clan during the small-pox epidemic.
Dr. T. J. Hutton. an ex principal of
the High school, now residing at
Chicago, 111 , sends us a large order with
a congratulatory letter. These people are
cited from over sixty who have within the
past ten days sent us letters giving en
couragement to the enterprise. There
can be no doubt that when the souvenir
appears there will be a great demand for
extra copies. In order to guard against
disappointment we urge that all orders
for extra copies be sent In at least one
week before date ot publication. No
orders will be received tor less than ten
copies.
