No town will become a good business oonter so long as its business -men rely on a few merchants to make the effort to bring trade to town. Too often the men In few lines of trade are about the only ones that reach out after customers. Other merchants wait until thes6 men induce the people to come to town and content themselves with tbe trade that naturally drifts to their place. A pub lic spirited man should ask himself If he Is doing his part to attract people to come to town to trade In helping tho entire business community, and no town Is a success unless all lines are working to extend the trade as far as possible and trying to bring a large territory in the circle In which tbe town Is the business center.

One day last week Prof C. J. Scott, superintendent of the publlo schools of this borough, In conversation with a representative of The Star about tho schools, said: "It Is very urgent that tbe parents co-operate with teachers In at least three things. "First: In giving careful attention to monthly reports. Every pupil of our schools receives a carefully made out report of his or her preceding month's work. These reports are the result of several days of oousclentlous work on the part of tbe teachers and merit more than a cursory glance by the parent. If the monthly average Is less than 80 per cent or any one study is given a grade of 65 per cent or less, this report Is unsatisfactory to us. The parent should also note carefully the grade given for conduct or application. Eyery pupil was given his report book on Friday, Nov 9th, for bis second month's work. Second: Parents should co-operate with teachers In securing some borne study evenings. Every pupil above the primary schools should do some studying at home, especially so with the grammar schools and high schools. Tbe cause of failure In many Instances In the higher grades Is due to lack of home study. 'Third: Another very Important thing for parents' consideration Is punctuality and regularity of attend ance. No pupil can succeed in his work if irregular In attendance. Many a pupils' school life and, hence, his future life, Is an utter failure from this cause. Pupils are often permitted and even asked, to remain away from Fchool on trivial excuses. The pupil gets be hind bis class, falls, becomes discour aged and leaveB school or at his best remains and derives but little benefit from his work. Every parent is urged to see that bis boy or glr: Is rarely or never tardy or absent." Prof, do you know that a number of puplls'aro on the streets at nlcbt? "Yes, and parents are urged to guard their boys and girls against the de structive Influences of street associa tions, and to realize that if a boy uses tobacco his school work will suffer." Every parent sbou.d have a talk with the teacher and principal about their boy's or girl's school work, especially so If there Is tbe least dissatisfaction. Visited Punxs'y Aid Society. Tbe parlors of the First Baptist church were the tcene last evening of an extremely Interesting and pleasant gathering, tbe occasion being the entertainment of the members of the Ladles' Aid Society of tbe Reynoldsville Baptist church by the Ladles' Aid Soolet.y of the local church.

George C. Brown, assisted by the pastor's wife, Mrs. C. H. Fltzwllliam, and were at once welcomed to tbe beautiful cburch home. After the routine business of the evening had been concluded, the en tertainment committee, of which Mrs. Anna Young is the chairman, served a sumptuous lunch, which was voted "splendid" by all present. The vUltlng friends were then es escorted by the pastor, Rev. Charles H.
