To make our town more beautiful, And keep our children dutiful, Tho only way, somo peoplo say, Tho ONLY was', (now don't get gay), Is to dam the Middle Creek. When tho Springtime rills are gushing, And big cakes of lco are rushing, Do you think that then these self-same men Would say with voice, or say with pen, Let's dam tho Middle Creek? To dam things seems quite human, It tempts both man and woman; But hero's our say, our earnest Bay, 'Twill never, never, never pay To dam the Middle Creek. WO weeks ago P. A. Barrett, T the Scranton manager of tho Elrnlra Telegram, camo to Hawley on a little jaunt of pleasure and looked over the town. This is not the first visit Mr. Barrett has made to Hawley, and on his return he has generally said some mighty nice things about us; hut on this last visit he evidently missed finding at home the genial spirits who have hitherto escorted him to the more particular points of Interest, and, quite naturally, in poking around on his own hook he ran across some things we don't gen erally show everybody. All towns, all cities and all families have rooms for the hired man, you know, as well as for the summer boarder and the Invited guest. Well, this time when editor Bar rett reached homo he handed us out In the next Telegram as fine a speci men of "roasting" as tho most par ticular person in the world would care to see, or not to see. Every body knows that thq Middle Creek is extremely low this year. Probably it was never lower. In fact it looks quite liko a Giant's Causeway of rocks, and cans, and other debris; but it doesn't look half as bad as does the Lackawanna not a half mile from whero tho Telegram man lives, for what water there is in tho Middle Creek is clear and clean and doesn't look as if it needed washing, as does the yellow, soap suds looking stuff that trickles over almost every thing Imaginable from beer kegs to well, every traveller knows what tho Lackawanna looks like from'For est City to Campbell's Ledge. Especially did the scraps of paper reposing in the little eddies seem to worry the Telegram man, and he began handing us out advice. He wants us to burn our paper. He wants us to put in a sower system right away. And, for aesthetic pur poses, he wants us to build a series of dams in the Middle Creek. Why don't they dam the Lacka wanna? The damming idea seems to have caught on, and some of our peoplo believe it would be a good thing. In talking with Hawley people who have considered the Idea In all Its bearings, and they admit that a few sleepy mill ponds would be nice to look at in the summer, for they would hide the rocks in the bottom of tho creek, and they would also be all right to skate on in the win ter; but when the spring freshets came they would be a source of much damage. "Why," said one citizen, "the Middle Creek Is like the moun tain torrents of tho Great West. I have marked stones in tho creek's bed, rocks that would weigh at least two tons, and after a Spring freshet, with Its awful rush of water and Its grinding torrents of ice, had sub sided, they could not be found. Af terwards they were found away out In the Lackawaxen, beyond tho rail road bridge. No, sir," ho continued, "it would never do to dam tho Mid dle Creek." Then, too, there is the mosquito side of the proposition. Don't those pests breed in still water? The writer doesn't want to be classed among those who are always knocking, and If anybody can show that the damming of Middle Creole is feaslblo or safe, then he will hold up both hands for the project. In the meantime ho Is from Missouri. Happy Lot of Folks Say " Farewell!" to Hoy Johnson. On last Saturday evening a fare well social was held in honor of Hoy Johnson, telegraph operator at the Wangum tower of the Erie's Wyo ming division.

During tho dry season of the year the present water power of the elec tric light plant has been found to be inadequate and work is progressing rapidly on an addition to tho dam which, when completed, will furnish sufficient water power for all tho season round. Steam is now resort ed to in dry seasons. Tho dam of the electric light plant is on tho falls near tho silk mill, and It Is in no manner connected or controlled by tho great big dam that will be built at Wilsonvllle.

The trio will pursue their studies along the lines of business, each of them taking a complete com mercial course. The Way Anthony McDonough Takes a Slimmer Vacation. Over in Dunmore, where he re sides, A. P. McDonough is always called "Anthony" for short. Mc Donough is something of a Wayne county man as he Is the senior mem ber of the McDonough Bros, who conduct a livery business In Haw ley. Over here people sometimes go the Dunmoreans ono better on the shortening up process by cutting the "Anthony" down to plain '"Tony." But call him short or call him long, McDonough has a way of his own of taking his Summer vacation that is not only unique, but it has the merit of opening up on the prosperity side. This is the way Anthony does the vacation stunt. Loading a good sized tent' Into a wagon, ho adds to the load bedding, cooking utensils and the like, and then he hitches a team of horses to tho outfit. Back of the wagon fol lows a train of moro or less horses, and tho expedition Is always accom panied by from two to four young men who go along "just for the fun of tho thing." Every year a new cir cuit Is made. They fish, they rest, tney nave a good time, and Anthony trades horses. He works his end of tho trip on a system. No matter how he may trade he always irtsists on a little "boot money coming his way. That means that the expedi tion is obliged to "pan out" success fully every timo. This year Anthony is accompanied by Joseph Moran, Martin Richards and John Gill all of Dunmore. They started out 7 weeks ago with 28 horses. On Tuesday noon they had only 10 horses In their string. From Dunmoro they went to Dutch Flats, from that point to Mt. Pocono, then to Cresco, then to Henryvillo, from there to Stroudsburg, and the next stop was at Hawley, where they opened their camp just above the silk mill. The McDonough camp will remain in Hawley for a few days, and, as the frosty nights aro making out-of-doors sleeping rather unpleasant. ere long Anthony and his compan ions will "roia their tents ' and de part for Dunmore.

FUndlng time rather dull on his hands on election day, J. A. Bas chon went fishing up on tho Wallen Paupack.

What is given away needs no "selling talk," and anybody who expects to got something for nothing in the form of a business deal will invariably bo disappoihted. It is quite universally accepted in these days of general publicity that the newspaper furnishes, comparatively sncakinc of course, tho most de sirable form of publicity. Everybody reads the newspapers. They farm the college of the home. The better the newspaper, tho more faith people have in Its utterances, the more entertaining its news stories may bo writ ten up, mo more desirable it becomes lar lot of readers.

What may be "best" in ono case will be indifferent in its power when used for some other line. Ad vertising is selling talk. It may be thundered from the housetops.
