est Il. B. HARTMAN
After changing the name of his pa
per for at least half dozen times, Mr..
kurtz at last returns to his first love
and again deslgnates his ''great and
good Reporter" by the appropriate,
time. honored title Scltmutzbtatt.' That's
the most sensible thing Freddy
did this long time. Hope he will stick
to it and be happy for once.
THE ORIENTAL CAsKET, full of
literary gems, is one of the best perioGi-
Gals out. l.. Lum smith, the publisher
makes it n point to employ only the
best and ablest editors and contribu-
tors and at the same time enables eve
rybody to>t2Ee his paper charging only
81. 90 per year. THE CAsKET is issued
monthly ut 9l2 Arch St., Philadelph:a
wnere it can be had by addressing the
editor, EMERSON BENNET.
The musical convention last week
nearly bI oke up Mr.. Morrison's school.
For several days only six to eight pu-
pills were present. We very much
doubt whether it is good policy for par
ents to permit their chiliren to miss 4
week school in order to attend mu-
sical convention. 1t may however be a
debatable question, and it would be
we'll for those concerned to consider the
matter.
The musical convention last week
was we'll patroniZed by our people and
we'll attended by singers from other
parts, although several big guns adver-
tised did not put in their appearance.
The results we understand are entirely
satisfactory TO the committee.
1t is to be hoped that the practice
and cultivation of vocal music will not
cease with the close cf the convention
season, but that the people composing
the choirS and singers of the several
churches will carry into practical use
what they have learned.
ENOUGH OF Tive have noticed
the following slanderouS little item in
several Union county papers and will
stand it no longer. Why men, we
have no Jacob Zuddering nor yet a
Clear Creek in ali Centre county, and
even our calves have more sense than
to get lost. We much suspect that the
notice was found posted up somewhere
near Lewisburg, say In the vicinity Of
the UnirerSity grounds
This is the way a Centre county man
advertised a lost calf Round away

Last weeks Reporter wa- so poor
ly printed that we could only partially
decipher the little article intended for
our benefit. Guess Freddy must have
used a poor quality of tar instead of
printers ink. However we did manage
to make out such words as ''old Wig
gins" "thrash," soap" "ten COM
mandments," and candy" What a
strange mixture Of terms. See If we
cannot get them into some sort of con-
nection. The soap he badly needs him
self. In fact it would boom the market
instantly if he would buy just the one
half he ought to use. Candy? No,
please excuse Jumbo. You will need
all the taty you cao get the next time
you run for IS emly-and even then you
may not have enough to make it reach.
Thrash-that word rather gets us.
Can't make out whether Freddy in
tends to use it in the active or passive
voice. Guess he don't know himself,
and we waive the tbrdShinQ in either
case. Ten commandments-we here
is something tangible. Right glad,
Freddy made up his mind to give that
some attention. 1t is rather a late day
for him to begin, but he no doubt
thinks "better late than never" Hope
he will not allow himself to become di-
verted by Jumbo, and ''you fellows over
the mountain" Old Wiggins-lIot i'll
the dictionary. Guess 1t must be the
name of some old style Swiss watch.
No-thank you. II you really wish to
do something nice for poor brother
editor, get up subscription for cbrO-
n0nleter watch, worth say about $500.
Then we will have a big time of 1t at
the Brockerh off, not forgetting to in.
vite brother Meek, brother Fury and
all them tell0aUS over there. You may
make the presentation speech, we the
reply-we have considerable practice in
speaking to each other you know. But
of course you must be little more lib
eral than you were on other subscrip-
tions. What next
