The Clearfield people now feel like
kicking themselves because they did
not ifet the large woolen mill, now
humming in Rcynoldsvillo, to locate
over there when thoy had an oppor
tunity to do so several years ago. The
Clearfield Spirit In its issue last week
mentioned the amount of work the
woolen mill has on hand for this year
and then added: "What a pity our
business mom didn't believe in this
Industry at the right time." No use
crying over "spilt milk." The people
of Reynoldsvllle are glad you didn't
believe In it "at the right time."
Don't lie to candidates. When a man
asks you for your support tell him the
straight facts about it. Then, whether
elected or defeated, he will give you
credit with being a candid man, and is
bound to respect you, even if he doe
not lore you. Many a candidate is lead
to spend a good deal of time and money
and energy that he might be spared if
people were frank and candid. When
a man's hopes are buoyed up by false
promises he naturally falls hard when
defeated and comes to tho conclusion
that all men are litun. Every man has
the right to vote as ho pleases, and no
sensible man can find fault with him
for it. Punxsutawncy Spirit. We cor
talnly agree with Rro. Smith. There
are too many men who, if they don't
deliberately lie, leave candidates under
tho impression that they are their
friends and encourage them to think
they will work and support them, when
they have no intentions of working for
them, and at tho same time are working
for some opponent.
James 6. Mitchell, of Hamilton, Jef
ferson county, present Senator from
the 37th Senatorial District, and candi
date for re-election, was in Uoynolds
villo several days ago. Senator Mltcholl
was a credit to his constituents in the
last Senate and should be re-nominated.
In its issue of December 1st, 18ft.", the
"Farmers Friend" contained tho follow
ing ooncernlng Senator Mitchell's work
in the Senate: "The Thirty-sovontb
Senatorial district, composed of the
counties of Indiana and Jefferson, has
boon very ably represented by the Hon.
J. G. Mitchell, of Jefforson county.
"Captain Jim," as he is familiarly called
Tjy his circle of Grand Army friends,
was ono of tho most oncrgetio, active
and capable Senators during his term
f office. He was always found ut his
post of duty and was nftablo, obliging
and considerate to bU persons buying
anything to do w ith him. Representing
an agricultural district, it was but
natural that he should espouse the
cause of the farmers. During his whole
term of offlca as Senator ho was active
and vigilant in cnuctlng legislation in
the interest of agriculture. During tho
last session of the Legislature be voted
for and supported the Tax Conference;
Revenue bill, which was In the In tores t
of farmers. It was largely through his
energetic efforts that the bill to pension
judges was defeated in the Senate.
He made a personal canvass among tBe
Senators against this bill and secured
the assistance of a sufficient number to
accomplish his purpose. He was an
important factor in securing bq Increase
of the appropriation for the Department
of Agriculture tor the purpose of en
forcing the antl-oleo and pure food
laws. Without this appropriation it
would have been almost impossible to
enforoe the laws relating to pure food
and dairy products. He stood like a
atone wall against the proposition,
advocated by so many, to 'reduce five
million dollars appropriation for the
benefit of the common school system.
This appropriation, more than any
other, reaches the mouses of the people
and is helpful to the rising generations.
Too much credit can not be given him
nd the other persons who o nobly
defended this appropriation and suc
ceeded in defeating its enemies. The
friend of agriculture oould always
count on the loyal support of Benator
liltchell fer ever position in the shape
f legislation presented In their
J-rest"
Geography Recreation.
A few days ago ono of Reynoldsvillo's
good housewives was out shopping.
Imagine the following to concern her,
and those whom she met.
She flint went to (bay of Mass.) meat
market; bought some steak, and ex
amined the sausage; but refused to buy
any of it because of tho (islands of tho
Pacific). Sho and the clerk hud an
argument about tho (islands).
They finally called the butcher and
asked him what (group of islands) was
In tho snusngn. He replied (river of
Mo.)! Tho butcher, not caring to have
her leave his shop angry, requested her
to remain a few minutes and see a (cape
of Newfoundland) between a (river of
Minn.) and a (river of Australia). After
that event sho walked out and met
(river of Australia), the Dr. Of course,
she told him what she had witnessed.
Doctor hud been out driving and felt
a little (country of S. A.): but Mid he,
"I saw something this morning that
bents that; while driving past a farm
houso I saw a b:y trying to make a dead
(country of Asia)." Just then a small
hoy eating a (Islands of the Pacific)
attempted to (desert of Chinese Empire).
The lady laughed so heartily that sho
dropied a nickle through a crack in tho
walk. Doctor asked tho boy to get It
for her. The boy being In a hurry to
go out to (mts. of Cal.) replied: "It
(Poninstinl of Asia) there for anything I
enre." Tho lady, remembering her
promise to her children, bought an
(river of Africa) for one, and a (ridge of
Pa.) for the other, and hurried home
where she found her (river of Australia)
boys trying to (Sea of Europe) their
faces, as they wished to look like a
(river of S. A.) whom they had seen
during thefburg of Blair Co.).
The doctor walked a few step down
street, when he heard someone say (capo
of N. C.)! and turning to the right he
saw a closed carriage drawn by two
(mts. of N. H.) horses; he topicd to lot
It pass; when Just before him tho carri
age gave a (city of Ark.) and doctor
saw the face of Ex-Governor (river of
Pa.) on his way to (islands in the Medi
terranean); doctor went to his offico and
found there a young man with a felon;
after warming up a little ho proceeded
to relieve the poor fellow and was Just
(city of Mich.) the felon when the young
man fainted. Doctor revived him; and,
as the sufferer had walked In from tho
country, doctor told him ho would take
him homo if he would wait a few
minutes. Tho young man waited, and
doctor oi-dored his horse and buggy,
and took his patient home. The young
man said to his sister: "You (cape of
U. S.) think this is (capo of the U. S.)
but doctor has done me a (luko of North
America) kindness. Doctor returned
homo convinced that the scarcity of
(mountains of Africa) mado (city of W.
Va.) better than Bleighing, except on
tho paved street.

has been arrnnged by A. J. Postlewait
with the hoK that it may Interest and
benefit the children of tho primary and
intermediate grades.

upon whose knowledgo of mnny persons
and affairs and tho varied' business
interests of tho community, his advice

Thut we hereby tender to tho widow

A Fallacy Exploded.

town last week, and Incidentally re
marked that ha was 80 years old on
January 1, 18IK1. Tho Times man also
said It was a tradition that persons born
on New Year's day were always saucy,
but this again is an exception in Mr.
MeCurdy' case. A more nmluhlo, even
tempered and upright man never lived.
