State SuporlntonJont BehaelTor In urging that Arbor Day bo generally observed this full says: "The observ ance of Abor Day has created a patri otic Interest in the planting and preser vation of trees. It ban convinced the publio of the importance of preventing and stopping forest fires1, of the need of reforesting the vast mountain areas from which the forests have been cut, and of the necessity of conserving the forests at the sources of our streams thereby regulating the flow of water and lossonliig tho floods and freshets which rob the land of its soil and fer tility. Moreover it is now generally admitted tbut Arbor Day should be observed when all . schools are In session. For this purpose Friday, Oc tober 2(t, 1010 is designated as Autumn Arbor Day." Dr. Bchaeffor further urges all schools, public and private, to obsorve this day by suitable litorary exercises, and by ridding up tho lawns and planting trees and flowers. During the past two yoars consider able work has been done in connection with tho schools along the line of out door art; nearly every effort has shown good results: In a few cases tho efforts have apparently been for nothing. But this has resulted from a lack of knowledge of the process of planting For goods results In transplanting the root must be well preserved, the hole m ust be large and deep, rich soil must be placed under and around the roots, the soil must be packed firmly to with in A fa Or tnnhott nt i.ha BniraA anA tha branches must not be too numerous or large for the roots. On most school grounds It will be necessary to bring In some rich fine soil. The plan for planting should be carefully worked out. A bulletin, which may be had free from the Seoretary of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, "Tree Planting on Rural School Grounds," not only shows how to make a planting plan but tells how and when to plant. Every teacher is urged to secure this and study it with the pupils. The lessons learned from It will be as valuable as any that will be learned In any of the branches. A few hyacinthB, lilies, tulips, nar cissi, etc., should be planted now for am.l BAnlnff VilrtAtnl wi a.

In conclusion T wish to say that It - is not of great Importance for you to have a literary programme; but that It is very important for you to do the studying ana planning, the ridding up and planting. If possible interest tbe patrons and get their help, make a day of It by having a picnlo or some other means. I have photographs showing some of the work already done; these pictures will In all probability be ex hibited at the county Institute by means of the stereoptioon lantern.

Do something to beautify the home and school groutads on Autumn Arbor Df Very truly, L. Maynk Jones, County Supt. ' Those who believe Reynoldsvllle has had luck during the last few years in having a few closed factories, and mills, should visit a certain town not over fifteen miles distant and note the 'desolation that reigns in almost a do2en old structures that were once saw mills, planing mills and kindred wood working establishments. Reynolds ville's mills closed only for a time and in a few more months will all be In operation, but the town that depended altogether on a lumber industry which has passed away forever, Is in tough luck Indeed. John Goodwill, who left Rtynoldsvlllo last Saturday to make his future home In XVIlton, North Dakota, was a notad personage In Rojnoldaville in his day and had witnessed Its development from a omall vlllatre to Its present prosperous condition. Be first came to liuynoldsvlllo as superintendent of the old Diamond mine, the first bank opened near HeynuldHVllle from which coal was mined for shipment to other points. And In connection with bis coal mining days there is a tale told of more thnn punalng Interest of his miraculous escape from death when a lad employed In a Scotland colliery. The story Is related In the follow ing quaint old ballad, which Is reproduced a- it was originally printed In Scotland almost three-quarters of a century ago. THE TWO.

Reader, kind and sympathizing, for a moment lend an ear, -i To a tale that's agonizing, and in pity drop a tear.; Two strangers from the English nation left their dear and native shore; Ah! who can paint their situation, to think sweet home to see no more. 1 Three days and nights those youths wore burled In tbe bowels of the earth, Fall after fall upon them hurled; but God was pleased to bring them forth. Youth and health and strength together they applied their lives to save; Ur- Hand ln.hand they wrought together to save thorn from a fatal grave. SJmTon their knees In sad distraction, to heaven they did loudly call, And God relieved them from affliction when their hopes were very small. When In this dark and lonely dungeon a strength they built kept sure, Or they In water would been plunging; Oh, Christians, what did thoy endure. Throe days and nights had passed togothor, and no relief was drawing near, The youngest said unto the other, our end's approaching, brother dear: We'll never now behold to-morrow: we'll never see the morning sun, Our days were few, tbey erd in sorrow; our race, alas, will soon be run, 35 .Tuoy laid them down In other's armB, and sleep the comforter of rest, ' Dad hushed to slumber all alarms, for heavy WB9 their heart opprest; But just like soldier going to battle, both men and master did repair; . Both Scotch and Irish tried their metal, to save theBO youth's from sad doBpalr, Masters stript unto the symct, they demerit great aoplause, At working they have learned the p am met; this was but a natural cause. Every one seemed agitated, till tbey found those youths alive; "Every breast, was animated when they saw they did survive. These two young men were both found sleeping, on Saturday at break of day; Their kindred now may cease their weeping, they're restored to liberty. Their mother now goes home contented, to her dear and native shore; Her fate would greatly been lamented, had her children been no more. Thanks to that Divine protector that In mercy did them spare. Oh! Where's the friend or benefactor, could their loss to her repair! GLANCE INTO SOCIALISM. A movement which ban grown so rapidly as Socialism during the last few years Is worthy deep study by every citizen, whether he be In sym pathy with or opposed to Its teachings. For this reason we give below a resume of the address of John W. Slayton, the Socialist candidate for governor, made In Centennial hall last week. Mr. Taft In his Jackson, Miss., speech, said that the American people must haye to soon decide whether or not the Republican party . should be continued to be Intrusted with the solution of the problems that now con front them, or whether they should be turned over to what he said was or might be called Socialism, "which Is an attack on tbe institution of private property." Tbe Socialists do not attack the private property, but they do attack and will continue to attack the private ownership of public property. The Socialists contend that tbe private or corporate ownership of publio property is tbe most dangerous power that any nation did or can tolerate. Tbe Socialists declare that in every ftga or generation there are Problems thai the people Ot rP! generation can alone solve, and .they can only do so by forming a new organisation, free from the entangling alliances of the powers that be at the times In question. The almsn object, principles and philosophy of the new party must be broad and revolutionary enough to strike at the root of the grievances Complained of. . Such a party must not talk of redres sing grievances, hut it must teaoh that the cause ot them must be removed. The Socialist party teaches that homes should be gowned by those who live in them, and while the jobs that the workers must have in order to live are owned by a few, home ownership by the workers will grow less and less. The Socialist party teaches that each worker should receive the full social equivalent of all services rendered or labor performed, and that in order that that state of society may obtain, there must be social ownership of the means of production and distribution. Owner ship carries with It tbe right to govern and control. Under corporate owner ship we, therefore, have tbe many con trolled by the few. Under social owner ship there would be social control. lustead then, of the Socialists being opposed to tbe private ownershin of private property, we want to make that kind of ownership secure, so that each family will own a home. Capitalism is destroying the home ownership on tbe part of tbe workers. The Socialists insist Uat corporate ownership of the jobs must be destroyed and social ownership take its place. TENER WELL RECEIVED. The visit of the Honorable John K. Tener and other candidates on the Republican State ticket to this section of tbe state last week attracted much interest and If there i any apathy among the Republican voters it was not manifested at the meetings in Punxsutawnev or Indiana. In Punxsu tawney the big Jefferson Theatre was packed and at Punxsutawney there was an even more entbuslastio demonstra tion. John K.L'ener is not an orator and makes little effort to hypnotize the audience by a flow of language, but as a "mixer" In the receptions he is supreme and would win the heart of Berry himself if he could only shake hands with him and talk a few minutes In his gentle and kindly way. Tener stands six feet five inches high and looks every inch a man. Tener was followed on the platform bv Hon. J. M Roynolds, Hon. J. N. Langham, Hon. rerry a. b&aner and Senator Langfitt, all of whom were rapid fire orators and worked up enthusiasm among the people. Monday night the iruhnr- natorial party held a reception in uuuois, which was well attended. Methodist Church.
