Rumsey, who was super- ntendent of the Low Grade Division of V. R'y up until August 1st, serving thirteen years In that capacity, was given a very pleasant surprise last Thursday evening by the employes of the Low Grade Division. An effort was made to get Mr. Rumsey away from homo for a short time In the even ing, but that failed and the next boat thing to do was to have the paymaster, who was in town that evening, and sev- ral employes call on Mr. Rumsey, get him into the library and have some music, while 25 or 30 other employes of the road went into the dining room at side ontranco, carrying a handsome and cosily rolled top, quartered oak writing desk with them. Mr. Rumsey was requested to step Into the dining room on some pretext and the surprise was as complete as if he had gone up town. Assistant Trainmaster D. M. Duns- more, In behalf of the employes of the road, presented the writing desk to Mr. Rumsey. Mr. Rtimsoy thanked the employe! for the handsome gift and the hearty and fraternal spirit in which it was given. Mrs. Rumsey, who bad been taken nto confidence several days before the present was given, was enjoying the surprise on her husband immensely, when W. S. Stone said he had a few remarks to make and when he got through with his presentation speech, Mrs. Rumsey was as much surprised as her husband had been, for she was pre sented with a rone and chrysanthemum style cut glass water set and silver tray, with her name Inscribed on tray and when presented by employes of Low Grade Division. There was a silver plate on the writ- ng desk on which was engraved the following: "Presented to S. B. Rumsey by employes of the Allegheny Valley, Low Grade Division." Most all, if not all, tho employes of the Low Grade contributed towards getting the presents, no one subscrip tion amounted to over 91.00. Mr. and Mrs. Rumsey have tholr household goods packed and will move to Wllkinsburg the first of September. During their stay In Reynoldsvllle they have made many warm friends who are sorry to Bee them move away. Idleness Not Necessary. A notice in the postofflce yesterday morning to the effect that there was an opening at the silk mill for an exper ienced weaver and several learners, brought to our mind the fact that the silk mill has proven to be a good Indus try for Reynoldsvllle. It is truo that most of tho employes are young people, yet the mill has given employment, at good wages, to many boys, girls and young women who could not be earning money were it not for the silk mill. Over three hundred are now employed at the mill and yet there 1b room for more, There is no excuse for young people to be idle in Reynoldsvillo and vicinity If they want to work. Tho wagos aro not large for beginners, on account of the loss tho firm susUins In the destruction of material while learning, but many of those who have thoroughly learned the work are now making good wages. It is much more honorable for young people to earn their own living than it is to depend uxn the parents. If you are out of employment and want to earn money, make application at the silk mill and there Is no doubt but that you will secure a position. Try it. Long Life Ended.
