Tho classes in agriculture have
made a number of good tests of
milk, using the Babcock tester.
Some milkman's lacteal fluid was re
cently given a test and produced the
magniilcent (?) test of two and
three-fifths per cent, butter fat.
Some people are still inquiring
whether or not the library is free to

The High school wireless tele
graphy outfit was in operation on
Monday when the editor of The Citi
zen sent a message to the pupils of
the school, telling them of the lit
tle booklet containing the first thir
ty lessons of the spelling contest,
which could be secured at his office
for only live cents.
Vincent Carroll, a member of tho
agriculture class, explained tho
method of testing seeds to a repre
sentative of The Citizen. Prof. II. A.
Oday secured some oats and Vincent
explained the process to us as fol
lows: "In order to test tho vitality of
those oats we planted them in a
seed-tester, planting three squares
of them, ten In a square. After al
lowing them seven days to germinate
I found that they had all germinat
ed, developing sprouts and roots of
about ono and a half inches In length
As they had all sprouted in tho
throe squares, wo had a sprouting
average of one hundred per cent.
The other fellows did not have as
good an average as ours but averag
ing together the total result was
04 1-3 per cent. This is tho ger
minating average."
Tho class desires to make tests
for other persons. Farmers or local
parties who would like to know tho
germinating average of their seed
can send the seed to tho school
house in care of the agricultural
class, Honesdale, and after tho tests
have boon mado the average will bo
forwarded. It takes a week to make
a test.

SPORTING NOTES.
Before a small crowd, the last
basket ball game of the season was
played at the Rink on Tuesday night.
The two teams were supposed to be
the Rink Five vs. the All Stars, but
neither team knew who was going
to play with them, until just before
the whistle blew. Tho iRlnk Five
missed the services of McDermott
and Capt. J3ader, their two star
guards, very much, and substituted
two of the G. C. team, Hessling and
Welsh, both of whom played good
games.
The game did not seem to have
much life and at times neither team
seemed to care who won.
Tho All Stars wero composed of
three Alerts, one G. C. club man and
ono Co. E. The flrst half ended C to
C and the final score was 16 to 17
In favor of the "All Stars." Lineup

BANK WITH THE
PEOPLE
I
Reasons Why !
It represents more stockholders than any other hank
in Wayne county.
ITS DEPOSITS HAVE REACHED OVliilTMLE
$300,000.00
mark and is steadily growing with the people's conlidence
and tho hank's progressive yet conservative methods.
Its expense of management is limited to amount of
business; together with it's trust lunds invested in bonds
and first mortgages on improved real estate assures its de
positors absolute security.
It treats its hundreds of small depositors with tho
same courtesy as though their funds were deposited by ono
or moro persons.
This bank comes under tho strict requirements of tho
State banking laws as all savings banks and is frequently
visited by tho Pennsylvania State hank examiner, besides
having a hoard of directors consisting of sixteen of Wayno
county's reliable business men and farmers.
