Too many men are envious of their
neighbor's prosperity, and hence they
patronize foreign establishments for q
everything they need rather than buy
at home and thus help the town. Ar |

rarely better or cheaper than those
offered by home dealers. The short
of such persons does not Q
permit them to see that their interests
ire identified with those with whom
hey are continually coming in contact S

An Audenried correspondent to the
Plain Speaker says;
"A crazy man struck town Tuesday
morning. He had neither hat or shoes
and imagined himself Messiah appoint
by divine providence to redeem the
world. He could not have selected a
better field for operation than Auden-
ried. This fact lone led many to the
conclusion that there might be some
truth in the mans assertion. All
m morning he paraded the streets, fol
lowed by gang Of boys, preaching the
doctrine Of redemption. AS most of
the local clergy policemen are out OF
town no attempt was made TO capture
him"

From the Teachers Institute Souvenir
of Northampton county, issued in 1888
we republish the following relative t.
our new principal from the pen of Prof
w. P. Messenger:
Many men have won greater fame
than Joseph H. Werner, Superinten
dent of Northampton County. But
few have worked more faithfully, ol
have had the success of their work
more at heart.
He was born in Bushldll Township
this county, June %, 1s45. The early
part of his life was spent on his fathers
farm, whore he formed habits of in
dustry, temperance and economy,
which have materially contributed to
his after success. He attended the
common schools, and subsequently
taught his nrst term in his native
township. His success, especially in
discipline, and his enthusiasm, caused
him to conclude definitely to devote
his life to education. Not having the
financial means to better prepare him
self for the work, he heroioally resolved
to defray his school expenses by
alternately teaching a term and by
what he earned during vacations.
In the spring of 1870, Mr.. Werner
entered the Keystone State Normal
School and after alternately teaching
and attending he graduated with the
class Of 1876. While attending the
Normal, he taught in all one year in
the model school. Previous to enter
the Normal he attended the Freeland
Seminary for term of twelve weeks.
In 1873, Mr.. Werner was elected
principal Of the school at Chapmans-
vile, at which place he taught for a
period of eight years, and until elected
TO the superintendency of the schools
OF this county. In this capacity Mr..
Werner is serving his third consecutive
term, having received a higher num-
Der Of votes at his last election than at
either previous election. His admins
tration has been remarkable for the
many improvements in the rural dis. .
tPicts.
He came from among them and
knew their needs, and so shaped and
and bent his energy as to aid them
practically; he is not given to much
theorizing, but he is a practical,
earnest-working man, with common
sense and application enough to out
weigh a volume Of untried theory.
OF Mr., Werner 1t can be verify said
that he is the true friendof the teach ers.
Their hearty cooperation and
cordiality is evidence of this fact. His
obliging manner, readiness to assist,
and the lack of dignifed reserve which
often characterizes supervisors, has
won the hearts of all; pupils, teachers
and directors, and has removed the
barrier that often prevents young and
inexperienced teachers from asking
advice and direction. His kindly way
Of correcting the faults of his teachers,
and his sound advice and hearty com.
mendation of earnest work done,
whether by pupils, teachers or directors,
has been the means Of squirting many
Of the former to higher aims in life,
and who can say that it has not i'm
proved buildings, furniture and
apparatus through the directors.
Above all, Mr.. Werner is an earnest
christian, and in THAT word, beyond a
doubt, We have the keyword of his
success, and the quiet but powerful
and lasting influence he is exerting
throughout this county.
