Owing to a bad piece of road in

sion to District Attorney Blgelow
to indict State Highway Commission

Socialism and fanaticism have
always been more or less associated
with each other, but under the spell
of the pen of Miss Florence Converse
the association of the former with
the latter completely disappears.
Socialism assumes a very different
aspect as the characters of tho book
"The Children of Light," wore re
vealed in their true gaTbs by Mrs.
Salo Friedewald at tho High school
auditorium Saturday afternoon. Tho
selection of tho book as one of tho
readings beforo her Honesdale audi
ence this season had been by acci
dent, Mrs. Friedewald explained, It
had been placed In her hands by a
friend and at first she hesitated to
spend time reading it on account of
tho comparative obcurlty of tlie writ
er. On reading, however, she found
a big story. Miss Converse, tho au
thor, is ono of tho children of light
and her Uncle Lou Is the unsuc
cessful founder of a co-operative col
ony. "Tho Torch," a dally newspa
per edited by her In later years at the
time of tho Garment Workers' strike
in Boston, figures largely In the plot
of the story. The next reading by
Mrs. Friedewald will be held in the
usual place on Saturday afternoon,
December 6. This number will be
"Richard Feverel," by George Meredith.
There will bo no preaching ser
vices in the Methodist church next

While the practice of marking
on sidewalks to advertise entertain
ments, dances and the like Is a cheap
way of advertising, would not the
affair be impressed more clearly up
on tho public's mind if a little adlet
or display advertisement were in
serted In the local papers?

The first appearance of "The
Tuneful Liar," by Harry L. Tyler,
was presented by local talent at the
Lyceum theatre at Scranton one eve
ning last week. The play is one that
has attracted country-wide attention,
and has been tho subject of some lit
tle comment in Honesdale where the,
author is known. He was born in
Tyler Hill, this county, and visited
that place two years ago and it was
at that time that Mr. Tyler paid a
visit to Honesdalo -and made several
acquaintances.
In totaling up the district vote
in Northumberland county numerous
oddities have been found. James
Van Kirt, East Chilllsquaque town
ship; Jeremiah W. Hepner, Jackson
township, and E. B. Schuyler, Lewis
township, were elected justice of the
peace, although their names were
not printed on the ballot, and each
has two years to serve, tti one dis
trict Harry Kendall Thaw got one
vote for justice of the peace, while
In another Theodore Roosevelt was
given one for burgess, and in a third
Woodrow Wilson was voted for con
troller. John Shaffer, tho Hancock bus
driver, was arraigned at Delhi a few
days ago on one Indictment charging
him with violating the excise law,
and bail was fixed at $1,000, in de
fault of which he has since remained
in jail. On Monday ho was arraign
ed on another indictment of the same
kind, and another $1,000 was added
to his bail. Shaffer has been con
victed once on a similar charge and
served time. He Is said to have
carried a bottle of whiskey around
in his pocket in tho no-license town
of Hancock, and sold it for 10 cents
a drink.
The many Inquiring friends of
Councilman S. T. Ham, who was tak
en ill on Friday last, will be gratified
to learn that ho has sufficiently Im
proved to be at his store on Monday
morning. Mr. Ham while working In
his harness shop shortly after 2
o'clock, was stricken with a dizzy
spell or vertigo and fell to the floor.
Contractor John Bryant entered the
store just as Mr. Ham lost his
equilibrium and went to his assist
ance. Mr. Bryant asked Mr. Ham a
question and on receiving no reply
he placed him in a comfortable posi
tion and as soon as possible went for
help and a physician. The sick man
was taken to his home, where, a
few minutes afterwards he regained
consciousness. Mr. Ham is now feel
ing more like himself, which Is en
couraging news to his many friends.
The fact that the vicinity of
White Mills is not the mecca for
hunters who are looking for rabbits
was demonstrated last week when
ono of tho youthful hopes of that
placo went out with a gun and came
back empty handed. Now there are
a fow rabbits around in that neigh
borhood, but they are, unfortunately,
tame. This young man had often
come home without the sign of tho
successful hunter hanging from his
bag and his mother began to chide
him about his ability as a marks
man. He proved the latter point tho
next day by bringing home several
fine rabbits. The mystery as to the
bunnies was solved a few days later
when tho young man in question
confessed that he had shot tho tame
rabbits and had taken them home for,
said he, "There ain't no other kind
hfJre."
Owing to the Ladles' Improve

Goorgo Kemp, Son of Principal
of Normal School, Present.
The Wayne County Alumni Asso
ciation of the East Stroudsburg Nor
mal school held their annual banquet
in the city hall on Thursday evening,
after tho entertainment at the High
school. There were about fifty pres
ent. Tho hall was prettily decorated
In red and black. Among the guests
present were Mr. and Mrs. W. B.
Holmes, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Koehler,
Professor George Kemp of tho East
Stroudsburg school, Dr. LaRue, vice
principal of the East Stroudsburg
school, Strickland Gilltlan and Mr.
Frederick Wood. Speeches woro
made by all of the above named gen
tlemen. Mr. Wlnfield Menhennett
was toastmaster. Music was fur
nished by Mr. John Storm, Principal
of the Lake Ariel school. Besides

Toastmaster Menhennett In Intro
ducing one of the speakers of the
evening stated that It gave him pleas
ure to present W. B. Holmes, who
for some time had been a trustee of
the East Stroudsburg State Normal
school. Trustee Holmes made a few
very good extemporaneous remarks.
Ho congratulated the Alumni upon
tho fine banquet and said he great
ly enjoyed the spirit of the hour.
Trustee Holmes gave a quotation
from Bacon: "Blessed shalt thou be
when thou goest In and blessed shalt
thou be when thou comest out."
This Is placed over the door of the
theological building at Yale. Mr.
Holmes said this was not only an
ideal motto for other colleges and
universities, but it will be an appro
prlate'motto to be placed over every
school ,in Wayne county. He spoke
of the 'privileges of attending the
school In the county, of the loyalty
of the students and of their confi
dence In their teacher. Ho made
the comparison of the Great Teacher
and pupils, who said, "Blessed are
the little ones."
Toastmaster Menhennett next call
ed upon County Superintendent J, J.
Koehler who stated that he was
proud of the teachers who were
graduates of the East Stroudsburg
State Normal School and who are
now teaching In Wayne county
schools. He highly commended the
work they were doing; also tho work
of graduates of other normal schools
who aro teaching in the county.
Hon. F. D. Wood, of Seattle,
Wash., commenced by telling of his
Inability In securing an education in
school. He first entered a printing
office and as his tastes did not run
In this line he drifted into a law of
fice and commenced reading law. Ho
mastered Blackstone and was soon
admitted to the bar. This was done
by perseverance and hard study.
The speaker said his greatest in
structor was the English dictionary.
He then asked the pardon of thoso
present for being personal, adding
that ho had tho largest vocabulary
(tho dictionary) of any lecturer up
on the stage.
Toastmaster Menhennet then call
ed upon Strickland Gillllan, who en
tertained the alumni with a few
humorous remarks.
Professor A. H. Howell of Way
mart, gave a short talk along the
line of keeping the normal school up
to a high standard.
The toastmaster next called upon
Professor George Kemp, son of Dr.
E. L. Kemp, principal of the Strouds
'burg State Normal School. Prof.
Kemp brought a message from his
father, who was unablo to be in at
tendance. Prof. Kemp based his talk
upon a letter which had been receiv
ed at tho school asking to which
school a certain man should send his
daughter. Principal Kemp replied,
"To the East Stroudsburg State
Normal School, of course." Ho con
tinued this line of thought, showing
that the record of this particular
school has been clean In all its de
partments, in its athletics and in
fact everything that pertains to tho
school. It is the custom of the
school never to resort to any illlgitl
mate means to secure students, but
that they depend on the standard of
the school, ofllciency of tho faculty
and tho alumni. Prof. Kemp said
there are 2,000 graduates of this
normal school and that they act as
a good advertisement to secure new
students. Dr. D. A. LaRue, also a represen
tative from the East Stroudsburg
State Normal, waB next called upon
by Toastmaster Menhennet for an
address. Dr. LaRue said in part:
"I always enjoy coming to Wayno
county to attend this annual banquet
of tho alumni and address its mem
bers. I nm proud of the fact that my
better half was a Wayno county girl.
Boys you will never make a mistake
If you marry a Wayne county belle."
(Mrs. LaRue was nee MissvGuinnlp,
of Atco.) Dr. LaRuq concluded his
remarks by stating thdt he was grat
ified to know that the Alumni was
growing in numbers and that the en
thusiasm was also greajter.
John D. Storm, principal of tho
Ariel High school, was next intro
