The Christmas Turkey.

Up in the apple trees, near the back door,
with the sky for a roof and the boughs for a
floor, or perched on the ridge of the barn or
the shed, the turkeys all nestle with head up
to head, and doze through the night till the
first streak of morn calls them down from their
roost for their ration of corn. And then,
when Thanksgiving or Christmas has come,
and the family all gathered within the old
home, ON the long dining table that's spread
in the room, nicely garnished with many a
savory crumb, head off his shoulders and
wings skewered down, legs neatly trussed and
breast roasted brown, there lies the big COB
Ter in state ON the platter, while over him rings
the loud family chatter. The christmastide
feast would be no great affair except his plump
carcass were prominent there; then on each
Christmas day may we all be so lucky as to
crown the full board with well-roasted tur-
kew

Christmas has come and gone. The last
toddy has been swallowed; the last Christmas
fight been fout, and the last Christmas fire.
cracker has been cracked. The people take
a rest now, and good many ofthem need it.
Of course we all had good time.
Our stores sold more Christmas goods than
at any time ever known before. The enter
prising proprietor of our drug and brio al rack
store offered three different prizes to custo-
mers buying the largest amount of Christmas
goods Mr.. Uriah Englar, one of our most
successful farmers, was the happy recipient of
first prize, ten dollar gold piece, he having
bought fifty-two dollars worth of goods.
The people of this vicinity have all filled
their ice houses.
On Tuesday evening our esteemed friends,
Judge and Mrs. Slingluff, had a large social
gathering of young people at their house, in
honor of the birthday of his son Isaac, he
having attained his twenty-6rst year on the
26th. The evening was spent in social games,
music and dancing, and the guests were en-
tertained in true Maryland style.
On Thursday evening Mr.. Harry Carter, of
Frederick county, was married to Miss Jane
Hibberd, of this place. Good luck to the hap
Ply pair.

western MaryIand RAILROAD.

The Baltimore Sun, of Wednesday, says:-
The Western Maryland Raiload shows large
increase in its business for the year, Novem-
Der giving $40, 900 more than the same month
of 1881. Fifteen hundred tons of steel rails
were laid, and an order for 500 tons for use
in 1883 has been placed at $40 ton; With
the aid from the city new engines and rolling
stock will soon be supplied, iron bridges will
replace the wooden structures, and the road
will be ready at all times to handle the south
ern traffic received from the Shenandoah
Valley Road and its East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia connection. But the Western
Maryland managers believe their road is to
achieve its future success through Mr.. Van
derbilt's Southern Pennsylvania Railroad, ex-
tending from Pittsburg to Harrisburg. This
road is to be built in two years or less, and
the Western Maryland will strike it near
Chambersburg of Shippensburg, in the Cum
berland Valley, and will become its Baltimore
connection for east and west business. It is
promised that work on the new Vanderbilt
road will be commenced at once.

Removal of the Taylor Works.

In the transfer of the Taylor Works from
Westminster to Chambersburg, Pa, we lose
some of our valued citizens and a very i'm
portant industry. The president of the COM
pany, Mr.. j. E. Taylor, is most active and
energetic business man, we'll calculated to push
the enterprise with success. Mr.. K. M. Beck,
superintendent, is invaluable as the practical
head of such an establishment. He is a man
of sterling worth, and an acquisition to any
community Mr.. Samuel Downs is another
attache of the company, who has won the
lasting respect and esteem of those who have
known him here most intimately. Mr.. Eph-
rain Fowler is a trusty, faithful and skillful
workman in the wood department. while our
young friend, Mr.. Frank w. Shriver, book
keeper, is gentleman of fine business attain
ments and strict integrity, whose absence from
our community will be regretted by an ex-
tended circle of admiring friends. There are
a number of others eminently worthy of hon
orable mention, among whom we name Messrs.
Halter, Cole, Quinn, Ensor, Nichols, Burns,
Mtten, Black, Diffendall and others equally
meritorious. Mr.. George A. Taylor, brother
of the President of the company, long con-
nected with it, will go to North Carolina to
take charge of the business of the North Car
DINA Milestone Company, and also to engage
in agriculture. Our best wishes attend him.
The average number of hands employed dur.
ing the year has been 200, and the payroll
$4,000 weekly; monthly freight bill, $500 /;
monthly expressage, 500, and an average OF
500 per month expended for supplies pur-
chased in this city. They expect to COM
mence operations in Chambersburg next week.

An Ola Landmark

The reverend old oak whose majestical
form was ne er withered by the lightning nor
bent by the Storm" has been shorn of its
giant arms and sylvan beauty by the hand of
man, and only its trunk stands there now in
Court street, where it has stood as land
mark perhaps for centuries. 1t may "bour-
geon and blow" again when the vernal season
returns, and renew its youth like the eagle.
1t was probably part of the primitive forest.
and has survived all its contemporaries, unless
the ash and maple trees in and near Centre
street belong to the same period. These giants
of the forest are links between the present
and the past They stood there ere West
minister was founded, ere the foot of the white
man pressed the sod of these hills and val
legs, and the red man may have pitched his
wigwam there and stretched his weary limbs
beneath their outrageous shade after the IA
tigues of the chase. They have seen the gen
erations of men here come and go-the first
settlers in their log cabins, their more pre-
tentious successors in weather boarded tene-
ments, and finally the more stately domicils
of brick and mortar of the present day. They
will stand there for generations to come, it
undisturbed by the ceaseless pulsations of
change, until the children's children of the
present generation have faded away from the
memory of the living, their names and their
history forgotten, as we have forgotten the
crude forefathers of the hamlet where we
now dwell.
