THERE is good reason to believe that
at the next meeting of the Millersvillc

school anybody and everybody connected

township will be called upon to enforce
the resolution.
Also, that Secretary FrantZ will move
for the prompt dismissal from the faculty
of several members of it who continue to
maintain friendly relations with the In
TELLIGENCER office, notwithstanding
the secretary's sproclamation- 'hypothet-
ically speaking that this Office is the
place where congregate the disaifected,
the incendiary- rebels, nihilists, law
breakers, infractors of rules and regula-
tions,"" those who make this Office their

Some Good Ideas.
Philadelphia Chronicle-Herald.

PDIIlucIphla CnrOn1cIC-Hcralu.
Some of Mr.. Hensel's ideas for the re-
vision of the rules governing the Demo-
cratic party of this state are exceedingly
good. Chief among these are that the
state committee shall no longer be chosen
amid the excitement and confusion of a
convention, but that it shall he made up
of the chairmen of the various county
committees and that it shall arrange the
temporary organization of the annual con-
vention. There can be no doubt that this
will. be an improvement on the present
methods. Tho plan will be submitted to
the Williamsport convention.

quest to furnish an account of the origin
of tho 'Sweet By-and. By" rather than
have you compile anything from the ex.
traordinarily inaccurate statements of the

grined at the account of an interview
reported for the Chicago Daily Meacs in
which the writer not only made singular
Eisstatements rs to the conversation really
held, but reported much that was never
spoken.

A marked Increase in foreign students

attendance, not alone to prevent the
mere record of tardiness as a matter of

of the strong elements in the education

tions were adopted:
In view Of the illness Of our Secretary, Miss
Anna Adams, and whereas in consequence of said
illness she has rendered to her resignation be it
RESOLVED First, That we deeply deplore our loss
Of an officer who from the organization Of this So
ciety six and half years ago, has had no superior
If an equal, as an untiring, jealous worker; and
that in reviewing her workan comparing it with
our own, we feel condemned before the Master,
whose cause the work Is.
RESOLVED. Second, That we express to her
our regret at the severance Of ties which have
bound US, and far words can, our appreciation
Of what she has been and done; and that we also
this day pledge to her and to the Master greater
faithfulness and better work in the future than
have ever done in the past; Knowing that to her
it will bring greater joy than any words of praise.

The State Of Trade.

In spite of repeated croakings from
over the Atlantic, the indications are
that the allied trades we represent will
enjoy prosperous fall and winter. This
will prove welcome tidings, and will be
hailed with joy on all sides. This coun-
try, recently under business depression,
made rapid strides in the past two years
to redeem herself from that dark thral-
dom, and has since been sailing upon
the flood tide of prosperity. 1t is not too
much to say that of all the trades under
the iron heel of depression, that of print
ing was perhaps the nearest the dust, but
now thanks to generous business COM
munity, ours has been one of the first to
leap upon its feet, and show a vigorous
activity. This has been the picture for
the past two years, and the coming year
promises picture no less pleasing. All
our industries are fairly aliVe and prom
Use well for the future. 1t is true we
shall have short crops from some sections
of the country, caused by the drouth,
and while we shall not be able to COM
pCJC 81 ldESC1l wv 1Ado AOCAihS buo
habitants of other lands, we shall have
more than enough for home consump-
ton, and our mechanical industries
must aid us to support our farmers who
come short of their yearly living. ALI
seems to be harmonious between capital
and labor. Now and then we hear of a
slight ripple on the surface, but strikes
have, at this time, nearly all been ad-
justed, and masters and men are living
in harmony, and the business world is
at peace.
Is the picture overdrawn? We think
not; and thus thinking, we believe that
the summer of 1882 will show that we
have enjoyed a business prosperity un-
equaled in the Nations history. Let
US "put our shoulder to the wheel" and
make it prosperous beyond our highest
expectation.-American Newspaper Re-
porter.
