Ham certainly knows a snollygostcr when be sees one, and his description was go vivid that every man in the audlenoe will know him also. As a story-teller Mr. Ham has no equal, and we but repeat the verdict of the whole audience when we say that ho is the best humorous lecturer evor beard In Clearfield. Clearfield (Pa.) Public Spirit.

E. church have decided that tho largo heaters, more especially for burning coal than gas, consume too much gas by tho meter nnd will have tho gas taken out of tho church for heating purpose nnd go back to the former way of heating with coal. Need a "Curfew Bell." It would bo a good idea to uso the fire alarm bell for a "curfew bell," which should ring at a certain tirau In the evening, and after tho ringing of the bell till children under a certain ago should be compelled to get off tho streets. Too many boys of tender years run tho streets long nfter the timo that they should bo tucked into bed. Entertainment Next Week. Joseph P.

Ham's lecture were all that the audience had been led to anticipate, the undercurrent of solid argument for the uplifting of the plane of American citizenship and fostering a patriotic sentiment that will drive out of politics the self-seeking, unprincipled place hunter the snollygosters who are feeding on the publlo and degrading tho institutions of tho land, made tho thoughtful ponder on his words, and encouraged all to hope for and work for a butter and purer administration of our public affairs. Sumter (S. C.) Daily Item. Col. Hum will speak in Assembly hall, publlo school building, Friday night, Deo. 11th. Try it Here. Two tramps who wore arrested by Chiuf-of-pollco McFurland at midnight were put to work with a ball and chain attachment this afternoon. Exchanges please copy. Ridgway Stur. It tramps were treated in all towns as they are in Ridgway there would not be so many strong, healthy, dirty hobos on tho road as there are to-day. About a year ago It was mentioned in this paper that tramps who loitered around Roynoldsvillo any longth ot time would be put to work on tho streets. Tramps have either made their stay short in town or somothlng else has happened, for we buve never heard of a tramp being put to work on our streets. A few such examples will go a long way in settling the tramp nuisance In Reyn oldsvllle or any other town, for these wandorlng Willies would about as soon wash as work, and It don't take them long to "spot" the towns where thoro la danger of bolng put to work, Attendance Officer Appointed. At the meeting of the school board Monday evening Jacob Hennlnger was appointed nttenilnnco officer, whose duty it shall bo to look after, apprehend and plnco in such schools as tho person In parental relation may dinlgtiuto, truants and others who fnll to attend school in accordance with tho provisions of tho compulsory educational laws. On account ot tho number of pupils who play "hookey" tho board found It nec essary to appoint the at tendance officer. Tho school board proposes to enforce tho compulsory law. , Tho law says that every parent, guardian or other person In this Com monwealth, having control or charge of a child or children between tho nges of eight und thirteen years, shall be re quired to send such child or children to a school In which tho common English blanches nro taught, and such child or children shall attend such school during at least sixteen weeks of each year in which schools In their respect I vo dis tricts shall b in session, unless they are excused from such attendance by the board ot the school district as pro vided for by this law. For every neglect of duty imposed by this act, the person in parental relation offending shall be guilty of n misdemeanor, and shall, upon conviction thereof before a justice of the peace or alderman, forfeit a fine not exceeding two dollars on first conviction, nnd a flno not exceeding five dollars for each subsequent conviction. Tlio law also provides that, tho board of directors or controllers may set apart school rooms In publlo school buildings for children who are hnbitual truants, or who are Insubordinate or disorderly during their attendance upon instruc tion In public schools.

Sixth Whereas, tho legislature hns passed an tictprnvlding for the establish ment of district high schools und the appropriation clause therefore hns failed to lioeomo a law, bo It resolved, That we ask tho legislature to appro priate sufficient funds to make the pro ject, possible. w liereus, the American people exhibit an apparent lack of frugality; and whereas wo bellevo a training to tlio proper use of money during child hood would bo of much benefit In establishing an Independent citizenship; no It resolved, That we petition tho leglslaturo to make provision for the establishment of a system of school savings banks.

Boys and girls, your "uncle" wants to talk with you a little this week on mat ters pertaining to punctuality, und promptness In tho work of your literary societies. Wo nro afraid that mr.ny of you nro losing Interest In literary work and becoming lazy, as It wero. Don't do this. You can't expect, your society to be a success if you each ono do not take hold and help to push It along. You cannot expect two or throe who aro Interested to shoulder all tho work nnd provide entertainment for tho rest of you week after week. That would be very unreasonable, to say tho least. Tnko tho parts assigned you cheerfully and when your name is called respond and have something to soy, no matter how little. Show your willingness and you will be surprised In a short time to find how easy it is to get up and Bay something, and then to think of how much more pleasant and entertaining your exercises will be to everybody. Try this, don't be a drone. Tho great est orators, statesmen, jurists and actors of the day hud to muko the same beginning. Fame is not reached at a single bound.

Don't allow the anticipation of tho good tlrao you expect to have at Christmas time to drive from your minds tho fact that examination time is coming on. Bo punctual. In tho great clock of timo there Is but ono word, and that Is "now." "Now" is tho watchword of tho wise, "now" is the banner of tho pru dent. Lot us always keep this little word uppermost in our minds, and whenever wo have any work to do, bo it raentul or physical, let us do it with all our might, remembering that "now" is the only timo with which we have to deal. You will find thHt "putting It off till to-morrow". Is a hard way of get ting through the world. "Now" is ours: "then' may nevor come. Bo punctual, putient and persevering. Look on the bright side; it Is the best. Hard times may come, but it will not mako them easier by wearing a sad coun tenance. It is sunshine that makes the flower. Don't forgot that tho sky Is blue ten times where It is black onco, and there Is always something around us which should cheer us.
