Letter to John Hlllls,
IitynnUhviUe, Pa.
Dear Sir: James Ackley's house in
Cairo (Catsklll Mountains), N. Y., aeon
splcuous one In the midst of tho vlllago,
was painted 14 years ago with DeVoe;
has not been painted since: and the
paint Is In good condition to-day. He
Is going to paint; but there's really no
necessity of it.
Devoe has been sold in Cairo 18 years.
Our agent is Gaston Wynkoop. House
owners there want DeVoe, and painters
there paint Devoe. It would be a hard
job to persuade a Cairo man to paint
lead and oil of coursu a painter paints
whatever a customer wants, even if It's
buttermilk.
Marian VanHoesen, a Cairo painter,
has painted DeVou for 15 years. There
are two or three others: all for Devoe
we are told don't know their names.
It's the same wherever Dovoe gets
into a town: it stays there and owns
the whole business.
Yours truly,
18 F. W. Devok & Co.

One of the many good points Im
pressed upon the large and appreciative
audience that greeted Dr. Waters
Tuesday evening, and ono that may be
advantsgeously utilized by tit, Is that
in regard to th acquiring of views
which shall direct our course In life.
We should recognise tho fact that soon
we will be taking our plane In the great
body politic, and that wn shall be fac
tors In the sol vlng oftboao great ques
tions which a future certainly holds In
store for the generation in which our
lot Is cast. For no matter to what pro
fession In lifo wo may aspire, there will
bo duties resting tion us which wo
must meet and discharge.
Principally, among these, are tho du
ties of citizenship duties we owe not
only to ourselves or to those who have
preceded us Into tho mansions of rest,
but morn especially to thosa who will
como after us.
Wo have hero a government founded
ttxin righteousness, and whose corner
stone was luld by our Revolutionary
forefathers, who offered their lives upon
the altar of their country's devotion.
We hnvit hero a government guarantee
ing equal rights to nil and whoso prin
ciples have been defended by our man
hood for over a century. But there
have now arisen questions of Bitch para
mount Importance, as to threaten tho
future destiny of that government
questions which must be met and
settled In the near future. Hence,
we should take thd time to milk our
selves acquainted with these problems,
and when tho time comes at which we
shail be culled upon to exercise our cit
izenship, we shall ho able to do so with
that wisdom and foresight which char
acterized our forefathers.
Ono of the limit Interesting programs
renderod this year was the mock session
of tho Pennsylvania Legislature Friday
afternoon. Tho main action of the
session was tho election of a U. S. Sona
ator, and it was only after four ballots
were taken that tho event was accom
plished. Tho leaders of the opposing
forces hud their stalwarts well mar
shalled, and they stood firm for the
principles of their respective parties.
The names of M. S. Quay and Geo. A.
Jonks were presented In a flow of elo
quence, and tho ballotting commence!',
On the first threo ballots the votes were
scattered, but on the fourth the apos
tles of Bryan succeeded In getting the
upper hand and Mr. Junks was elected
by a vote of 140 to 80 for Quay.
The Senior class porfected an organ
ization Friday afternoon by electing
the following officers: President, Clem
ent Flynn; Vice Pres., Frances King;
Sec, Eftlu Milliren; Tress., Maud Hoon.
A feeling of gloom was cast over the
High School Monday morning by the
announcement that our old friend
and elocutionary Instructor, Prof. Alton
C. Llndsey, Is seriously 111. It Is our
fervent hope' that Mr. Llndsey will
spoedlly recover and that it will be our
privilege to have him with us again
