STERLING.
Spoclal to The Cltlren.:
Sterling, Pa., Dec. 6.
An occasional pleasant day but
most of the time we are reminded
that winter is coining.
'Last week Milton Cross spent
three days In Scranton with his
brothers, Freeman and Friend.
Miss Nalona Cattorson, Moscow,
was tho guest of Mrs. C. E. Webster
last week.
November 27th was 'Karl Simons'
16th birthday and a number of his
young friends helped him celebrato
tho occasion in the evening.
R. B. and I. G. Simons 'have remov
ed their steam saw mill to Holllster
vllle where they have some work to
do.
Mesdames C. E. Webster and 'R. B.
Simons were elected delegates to at
tend the Sunday school convention
at Maplewood next Friday.
On Thanksgiving day Mrs. W. B.
Lcsher enteretaincd for dinner Mr.
and Mrs. A. Lesher and daughter
lydla, and Mr. and Mrs. S. N. Cross
and son George. Mrs. Sarah Stev
ens also had a number of her chil
dren home for dinner.
After a horse has been worked
hard and fed high and then stands
idle for a couple of days they are
occasionally taken suddenly ill with
some spinal trouble that attacks
them before they are driven a mile
and J. E. Cross has lost a number of
good tiorses under these conditions.
Last Tuesday morning Howard But
ler started on the usual delivery trip
and a fine big black horse was taken
sick and got as far as Louis Buyer's
and after suffering for two days,
died. Although this horse was six
teen years old, perhaps, he was as
useful and valuable as any horse In
Sterling.
Our old friend, Mrs. Grace Glllnor
Zane, is now at Empire, Canal Zone,
'Panama, and we were pleased to 're
ceive a pictorial postal from her last
week, but she claimed It "was not a
goodplcture as you can't see the
cock-roaches or lizards on it." She
described the sensation of being sea
sick on her way there as "being
stood on your head In a corner."
Pernaps that is a condition that is
tetter realized than described.
About one year ago tho Odd Fol
lows gave Rev. W. E. Webster a line
plush robe and last Saturday night
he very kindly returned the favor
by giving the boys an excellent oys
ter suppen They were all out In .full
force and as the oysters were just
out of the shell, were delicious, and
at the conclusion of the feast they
gave the Reverend gentleman a ris
ing, vote of thanks that is, the ones
who were able to rise and wo might
add this We notlcod that a number
were not ablo to get out to church
Sunday,
Last Sunday Mrs. Hugh JFitz left
for Scranton to see her daughter,
Mrs. France, who has- Just passed
through a successful operation for
appendicitis at the Stato hospital.
Last Wednesday evening at the
church Rev, Webster had a service
that was very appropriate for tho oc
casion and several gave a reading
or a declamation that Tvero enjoyed
by all.
To-day tho old school board will
gracefully retire and the new board
will we'll, time alone will tell what
they will do. But they were all
elected with tho understanding that
they were to run tho schools as
economically as possible and If they
'fall to do so, they will get, as they
Justly deserve, eternally kicked.
Our cash road tax and school tax
have heen scorchers-
Next Saturday afternoon, Rev. L.
C. Murdock, district superintendent,
is expected to hold the first and 'last
quarterly conference here for the
present conference year and preach
next Sunday morning.
