AllliOll DAY.
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

children cannot secure the bulbs for
these at home, they may may be had
or a very small price from the Flower
Mission, Cleveland, Ohio. Write for a
circular.
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

' 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.

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.
