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.

your new position, Mr. Smith.

The PTA card party held in the high

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

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.

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.
