and Mrs. Schenck will live to enjoy
many more years of marital happi
ness. Taken from Thursday's Scran
ton Tribune-Republican under the
caption of Stroller's Notes: "I un
derstand that W. W. Wood, of
Honesdale, when in the city a few
days ago, -was in conference with a
few of our capitalists endeavoring
to Induce them to join him in a
manufacturing enterprise for Hones
dale. The nature of the proposition
was not disclosed, but I am informed
that it appealed very strongly to
Scranton men and, if tho project
goes through, it will supply an ideal
manufacturing plant for the Maple
City. While, of couse, Scrantonlans
would much prefer to see Scranton
money Interested in homo undertak
ings, I do not know of a better place
than Honesdale In which to invest
money and no better man to entrust
it to than Mr. Wood."
If a curfew law were enacted in
Honesdale there would not bo as
many mothers worried over tho lives
that their young sons are leading.
Eight o'clock Is late enough for any
boy or girl to be on the street, unless
accompanied by their parents or
guardians. The evening could be
spent in reading or in other diver
sions of amusement to much better
advantage than spending their time
upon the streets, getting in -with bad
company and learning street talk. It
is under the cover of darkness that
considerable mischief is accomplish
ed, which if not halted, will lead on
to the performance of much bolder
and law-breaking antics. A cuifew
law Is needed for 'Honesdale, but if
not enforced, -would amount to no
more than tho ordinance for speed
ing automobiles.

Judge Alonzo T. Searle, Thursday
afternoon, at 2 o'clock the following

LEST WE FORGET.
Not to Baker, nor Davis, nor Collins nor Bender,
Is due the applauso of tho thousands to-day;
To these come tho bays of the winning contender,
There's plenty to cheer their victorious way.
But the sportsman to-day, as he views the disaster,
That came to the Giants when hope ran so strong,
Will think of the man, of the law-stricken master,
Of Mathewson, fallen, though mighty so long.
Any pin-head galoot can cling close to a winner,
And shout with the mob when the king passes by,
But there, where the ranks of the vanquished thinner,
There there Is the place where real manhood runs high.
There there, when defeat burns the laurels to ashes,
Where the proud page of triumph Is nearlng Its end,
Is tho place for the sport who can stand for the lashes,'
When Fortune, once kind, has turned sore on a friend.
He has fought, he has lost but a great blaze of glory.
Blots out any tarnish that threatens his fame;
"Bix Six" Is secure and will ever endure
And his record will stand to the end of The Game.
E. D. O. in Scranton Tribune.

"An adjacent gravel hill, 50 feet
high and covering four acres, was
levelled to obtain material for build
ing up this remarkable roadbed, and
rocks weighing many tons each wore
tumbled into the depths of the pit
before a solid roadway could bo
made across it. When tho task was
accomplished after months of In
cessant labor It was found that that,
quarter of a mile of roadbed had
cost more than $125,000."

The leaders of the Boy Scouts of
America have made arrangements
with several boys' preparatory
schools throughout the country to
adopt the Boy Scout movement as a
supplement to their educational
work. Many other academies are
considering tho adoption of It.
Scouting activities in a general way
have been taken up by several
schools and have been found very
' helpful and popular. The different
phases of scouting can be added to
the school work and give addition
al incentive to the boys both In their
studies and in their athletic work.
For instance, a boy who becomes a
scout can win badges for being pro
ficient In various studies, irr athletic
events and in his tramps on holidays
through tho country around the
academy which ho attends.
The training which the boys re
ceive by engaging in other scout
activities can be used as a substitute
for military drills and tactics. In
the majority of schools the military
training is given simply as a means
of discipline. Scout activities pro
vide discipline, body building and
character training, and THEY TAKE
THE HOYS' MINDS AWAY FROM
TIIE THOUGHT OF WAR.
The boy scouts will meet in the
gymnasium of the High school for
drill this (Thursday) evening.
