Just address them to your correspondent or to The Dallas Post. Considerable local interest is being man- ifested in the coming legislative election. This section, which is a part of the new Seventh Legislative District, formerly in the last session, is solidly Republican now, ‘in the Back Mountain tradition. We have proved to be one of the few sections of the county that have not deserted the Re- publican fold in ‘past years and at the moment how much this has been apprec- fated? When jobs are given out, how the last election, when changes were made, they forgot all about us. This section should be given the next Representative post. at Harrisburg, and will demand more consideration in party favors. ; A Church Institute session will be held at Trucksyille'M. E. Church next Wed- nesday night, with services held at 7:15, class period at 8:15, lecture period. The speaker will be Rev. Russell May. new pastor of the Shavertown M. E. Church, who returned last December from South America, He will lecture on “Under the Southern Cross.” These institutes are very helpful and interesting and the peo- ple of the township are extended a very cordial invitation. —— George Smith and family of Harris Hill Road, Trucksville, have moved to Huntingdon. Mr. Smith is an employe of the Bell Telephone Co., and was transfer- red to Huntington. Best of success in your new position, Mr. Smith. —— The PTA card party held in the high school auditorium was a fine success. Funds for the purchase of milk for the underweight children in the township grade schools for the coming year were realized. i Sule Locations For New ew Building or Sites Considered For ~ Proposed Trucksville School Coats f / At 12:30 Monday morning six weeks ago the residents of Trucksville were a wakened by flaming skies and excited shouts which accompanied the burning of their grade school. In one and one-half _bhours all that remained was the brick chimney. Now the question is: When, ~ where and how is the new building going to be built? Weeks before the unfortunate fire the sclioct board, at the request of representar ~ tives of the insurance companies, made an inventory of the schools and as a result insurance on the building, supplies and equipment at Trucksville was “increased upon recommendation of the insurance underwriters. , An itemized record was made of each article in the building. When the fire occurred, the local board expected insur- ance without delay. The directors cannot understand the delay and have been in continued contact with the underwriters’ representatives in efforts for settlement of the claim, as they wish to start building soon. Where the new school will be built is a question of vital interest to parents, and the directors, who are anxious to build where it will be most convenient to all: have looked over several places. Will it be. built at the old site? Those opposed point to the small playground, the low and wet grounds. The Robbins ot has been inspected. It is a large lot, evel and centrallydocated, but those ob- fecting claim that it will be bad in wet weather, and that the proyimity of the _ailroad tracks and the high trestle over _-¢he Carverton road are against it. There i also the question of whether the own- ers. will sell. Others are in favor of building a new building on the high school plot, in the grove in the rear of the new addition, Sut separate from the high school build- ing. This course would not necessitate he purchase of more land, and the pub fic could then use the athletic field for ~ a playground. But this plan has critics, #00, who say the site would be too distant 4rom the homes of many children. "One plot lately discussed is that of Mr. - Merrill of Wilkes-Barre. Those who are friendly to this site point out that it is high and dry, with good roads on both sides and only a few steps from the old _ shoo! ground. “The school busses must pass this plot going to the high school. ' “There seems to be enough interest in this site to warrant. the board's serious consi- deration | before taking any action. “The board will meet shortly and it is hoped the claim will be finally settled. An architect will then be appointed’ and plans drawn so that the school can be built and ready for classes at the beginning of the Fall term. “Trucksville Woman Dies Sunday Night Mrs. Alice Carver, 37, resident of Trucksville for the last 12 years, died Sunday night at her home, 27 Carverton Road, of a heart attack. She lived for merly in Sugar Notch. Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at 2 from Homer Graham Funeral Home, 395 South Franklin Street, with interment in Maple Hill Cemetery. Survivors include her husband, Frank Carver, and five brothers, William, James and Elmore Clark of Al Jentown, Russell Clark of Hanover Green ‘and Ralph Clark of Forty Fort. T'o Enforce Rules Set By Milk Laws McCarthy Warns Violators Permits Will Be Taken Away bt: A warning to local dairymen who are violating requirements of Milk Act No. 210 was issued by the Bureau of Milk Sanitation of the Pennsylvania Depart- ment of Health, through its district in- vestigator, D. A. McCarthy, this week. Mr. McCarthy announced all require ments are being enforced strictly to guard milk supplies and said permit holders who fail to meet the provisions of the act will be cited for a hearing in Harrisburg and have their permits to sell milk revoked. He cited eight specific measures which milkmen must observe to the letter: 1. Farm inspections and veterinarian certificates must be on file at distributing plant and paid for by the permit holder. Some dealers have passed these expenses on to the producer. Violation of the practice will result in loss of permit. 2. Private water supplies of both raw and pasteurized milk where milk is bot- tled and prepared for market must be analyzed by a.competent laboratory. 3. Health certificates of all milk hand- lers in plants must be filed at the plant. 4. Plants where milk is pasteurized will filter or clarify milk prior to pasteuriza tion. 5. Proper receiving room ‘equipment which. includes weigh can and can wash- er must be installed. 6. Lavatory facilities must include lock- er room, wash bowl, toilet, individual towels and soap. 7. Bacteriological analysis of milk must be on file at the plant. 8. Proper sterilizing equipment will be required in every milk plant where milk is prepared or bottled. many ‘are selected from this section. After | Dallas Bank Adds 150 Safety Boxes Marvellous Precautions Are Taken To Guard Valuables Left In Bank One hundred and fifty new safety de- posit boxes have been purchased by First National Bank of Dallas, to be installed in its modern vault. ‘ The bank, which needed only twenty safety deposit boxes two decades ago, has had to add year by year until it now has more than 310. Mostly such boxes are used by persons who have articles to which they attach a sentimental value or bonds, records, jew- elty, etc., which might be stolen else’ where. The boxes are in the great vault | which is, in itself, a marvel of precau-| tion. No box holder can enter the vault with- out being accompanied by an employee of the bank. Each box has two keys, of dif- ferent pattern, and both keys are needed to open any box. When one of the keys is lost there is no alternate but to break the lock, an expensive and difficult job. Upon entering the vault, one is con- fronted by a large mirror which reflects the entire interior, making it impossible for anyone to hide. One feature which interests visitors is the dial on the wall and they are amused to see the' delicate hand tremble in accompaniment to their voice. The dial is only one of the burg- lar alarms which protect the valuables left with the bank. It registers even the very slibhtest noise, and when such noises at< tain a certain volume—such as might be caused by hammering or an explosion— the dial sets off a burglar alarm. The bank vault is so strongly construc ted and so many precautions have been taken to defeat any possible effort to gain access to it that, although it has never oc- curred at the local bank, there is some chance that an employe might find him- self locked in and compelled to wait un- til the great door could be opened. For- merly such incidents were extremely un- comfortable for the employee thus impris- oned, but the local bank vault not only has facilities for ventilating the vault but can pass in objects from outside. . Occasionally the valuables kept in the safe deposit vaults under such rigid pre- cautions bring about amusing incidents. One day a box holder rushed in nervously and asked to be escorted to her safety de- posit box. When it was opened she ex amined the contents hurriedly and an- nounced that her diamonds were gone. Bank officials assured her there was no possible way the diamonds could have dis appeared. After a more careful examina- tion, it was discovered that the diamonds were in the box, safe ‘and sound. It then developed that the woman, had dreamed her diamonds were gone and the dream had been so realistic she had convinced herself.
