Punxs'y High School Too Busy.
What arrangements, may we ask,
have been made for holding the an
nual literary contest between pupils
of the High School departments
of Punxsutawney, Reynoldsville and
Brookville? Punxsutawney Spirit.
Prof. C. J. Scott, superintendent of
Reynoldsville bcdooIs, made a special
effort to get Prof. Hammers, of Punx
Butawney, and Prof. Downs, of Brook
ville, Interested in an lnterscholastlc
contest, but they would not get inter
ested. Their reasons (?) for not get
ting into the contest was that it re
quired so much time and labor and that
they are busy.
Falling In getting the contest Prof.
Scott tried to get up debating teamB
from Brookville, Punxsutawney, Reyn
oldsville and DuBois high schools but
failed in that and gave it up. That Is
what arrangements Reynoldsville at
tempted to make for a contest.

istrations, drew out a good sized audi

matched and kept the audience guess
ing at the outcome until the "learned

ed in their declsiou in favor of Dr.
Henneigh, champion of Lincoln for
first honors and Dr. Raine, who pre
sented Jefferson's cause, second best.
Re-roofing Silk Mill.

nesia cement roofing. We understand
this is a very durable composition and
probably stands next to slate for dura
bility and fireproof. It is used for some
of the largest buildings in the world
Every one interested in and about
Reynoldsville will be pleased to learn
of these repairs being made on the silk
mill, as k is a pretty sure sign that It
will soon be humming.

Yes It Would.
The following anonymous communi
cation was received last week, and
while it Is customary to consign such
communications to the waste basket,
yet on account of tbe nature of this one
we publish it:
"If there Is any possibility of a monu
ment being erected in Reynoldsville in
honor of the dead soldiers, as men
tioned in The Star last week, would It
not be wise to consider where this mon
ument should be erected? If a conspic
uous place on one of our main streets
could be procured for this purpose,
would it not add an attractive spot to
our town as well as remind us more
frequently of their endurance and hard
ships, than If erected in the suburbs of
our town In the cemetery?"
If we had a public square or park or
suitable place in the town for such a
monument, The Star would advocate
the erection of tbe monument thereon.
Will tbe author of the anonymous com
munication pleaBe suggest a suitable
place for a monument ? Please sign
name if you have any more articles for
publication. It Is not necessary that
name should oe published but we must
know author of communication.

APPOINTED TO STATE POSITION.
County Supt. R. B. Teitrick to be Deputy '
state superintendent.
Twelve years ago a young man named
R. B. Teitrick, who was then principal
of the Brockway ville schools, concluded
be would like to be superintendent o(
the schools of Jefferson county and he '
got after the office and was elected. At
the time of his first candidacy the edl- ': ...
tnr nf Tmj STAR u favnrahlv Im
pressed with him and stated then that
. :. j I . I . U . .. I A
no mistake in electing Prof. Teitrick to
the county superintendency, as be 1
seemed to possess the snap and ability '
to make a progressive man for the of
fice he was seeking. Since his first
election we have never had any reason
to think we advised tbe directors
wrongly in that election. The advance
ment in tbe school work in Jefferson
county during his superintendency of
eleven years, is proof positive that be
was the right man for the position, and
now his appointment to the state
position is not only a recognition of
Prof. Teltrlck's capabilities, but it is a
compliment for add endorsement of the
good judgment of the school directors
of Jefferson county in electing and re-.,
talcing Prof Teitrick in the office of;
county superintendent. ,
On Monday of next week Prof. Teit-.
rick will go to Hp.rrlsbUrg to assume ,
bis duties as deputy state superintend-.,
ent of publlo Instruction on the 7th in-,
stant in place of Hon. Henry Houck,
who was elected last fall as Secretary
of Internal Affairs, and who assumes,
bis duties in that office on 7th Inst.
State Superintendent Scba'fTer will
appoint some one to serve as superin
tendent of tbe schools of this county
unti the election in May of 190S. There
are five aspirants for the appointment
for oounty superintendent. The ap
pointment will probably be made this
week.
