Advertising seems to be an art
yet to be discovered by some people.
That is, the practical part of it.
A constant stream of water from one
or more firo engines will soon ex
tinguish or get under control a very
large lire, while a few buckets of
water, dashed on here and there,
have little or no effect. Tho mod
ern fire department Is practical and
has outgrown the bucket system;
nnd so with modern advertising
plenty of It, used in a practical, com
mon sense and judicious manner,
pays.

GRANDFATHER'S CHAIR.
By S. S. Robinson.
Discarded, and forsaken, In the gar
ret it stands,
Laid away years ago by affectionate
hands,
Disjointed and marred by long years
of wear
Is that precious old relic, my Grand
father's chair.
As I gaze at Its form In the dim attic
light,
Its presence brings back fond mem
ories bright,
Of the days when It stood by the old
stone-fire place
And Grandfather seated In Its gener
ous space.
CHORUS.
Oh, my Grandfather's chair hid away
In the garret,
That precious old relic of days long
ago!
With joy I now hasten again to re
store it,
To its time-honored place in the fire
light's bright glow.
Beloved "by all the household was
that ancient old chair
In Its soft cushioned seat I have of
ten sat there
Watching my mother turn the old
spinning wheel
Or winding the yarn on tho cumber
some reel.
Tho hum of the spindle, the click of
the reel,
Would, lull me to sleep, and mothor
would steal
Close to my side and stroke my
brown hair,
Then cover me up in my Grandfath
er's chair.
Each morning we would gather by
that sacred old chair,
While Grandfather led in family
prayer,
From tho Bible he read a chapter or
two,
Then he knelt by that chair as ho al
ways .would "do.
One night as he sat in that old
chair he died,
I had fallen asleep in the seat by his
side,
And when I am called from this
world and care,
May tney nnd me at rest in my
uranaratner s cnair.

IN MEMOHIAM.
At the regular meeting of the di
rectors of the Farmers' and Mo
chnlcs' Bank, held on Tuesday, Nov.
14, 1911, It was unanimously re
solved that in tho death of John
Kuhbach, Honesdale loses one of its
foremost residents, one who was al
ways anxious to assist in the
promotion of any thing he believed
to bo for tho advancement of tho in
terests of Honesdale and vicinity.
He was one of the organizers of our
Bank and became a director at the
time of its pormanent organization
and continued as such until the time
of his death. Wo desire at this
time to show our appreciation for
his services and to express our re
grets nt his death in tho prime of
life. We also desire to tender to his
family, our heartfelt sympathy at
their lrreparablo loss, and that a
copy of these resolutions be placed
upon our minutes.
