SUSQUEHANNA UNIVERSITY

THURSDAY morning, while at Selinsgrove,
4 the writer had the pleasure of being con-
Quoted through the Ladies' Hall of Susquehanna
University, by the Financial Secretary, Rev. A.
N. Warner. The commodious dining room is
elegantly furnished, and the private apartments
are as handsomely fitted up as the more preten-
tous Of the high-prced institutions of this kind.
Not only do the young ladies board there, but
the young men from the college, also thus form
ing congenial family circle.
Rev. Warner has given literally of his private
purse to create this new department in this splen-
did institution of learning, whose every feature
bears the unmistakabe stamp of healthy growth
and hearty development, since those happy days
when the Posr's editor conned his Caesar and his
Virgil within the shades of her classic walls.
DIR. Heisler, the President, is ever alert, active
keen and quick to grasp ideas tending toward
advancement.
The Posi- is pleased to note the rapid strides
made by the Susquehanna Universty-founded,
reared and erected, as it was, and cherished, ap-
preciated and venerated as it is by the good peo-
Of Old Snyder county. The Ladies' Hall is ap
important feature and decisive step in the drec-
ton OF progress credit to its promoters, and, it
is trusted, may prove one material factor in se-
curing for "Old Susquehanna" National recog-
milton in the galaxy Of erudition, and National
patronage, as well. Ad astra per aspera.

A NEW DEPARTURE

TURING the past month the office of the
IL Posi- has received large invoices of new
and fashionable types, rules, borders and other
necessary adjuncts for turning out books, book
lets, and commercial printing equal, if not supe-
rior, to the best equipped city offices.
Hereafter we will make speciality of booklet
and magazine work, and all other printed matter
used by Schools, Colleges and Universities.
This will embrace Catalog, Circular, and all
classes of College Literature and Stationery, in.
Guiding Half Tone, Photogravure, Enclosing
and Chromatic Printing, of every kind and des-
cription, and the finest that can be done.
Halt Tone and other Engravings for all class
es of printing will be made and furnished every
patron of the Posi- Printing Establishment at ac-
tual cost to us, and this means great saving as
our large orders secure considerable reductions
in prices, and the best class of work.
There are many reasons why frst-class print
can be done for less money in small towns than
in large cities (more satisfactorily, too,) among
which are these:
l. Rents are lower.
2. Insurance is lighter.
3. Skilled labor is cheaper.
4. The cost of living is less
5. Eaw material costs no more.
All these facts have been satisfactorily demon
strated in the operation of the shoe factory, the
shirt factory, the knitting mill, and other impor-
tant industries, which have gradually crept away
from the great commercial centres, within the
last decade and found homes in the rural dis
tricts. Progress is the shibboeth, perfection is
the aim, and usufruct is the guerdon of modern
methods, and the Posi- proposes to get out of the
old ruts and grooves, forestall the wooden mould
board of its ancestors abandon primitive methods
to the owls and the bats of antiquity, and protect
itself against dry rot and disntegratior.
The Posi- solicits bids on all the finest produc-
tions of typograpic art and etter-press printing,
and guarantees satisfaction in product and price.
Send a sample of what you desire, or what ap-
proximates toward it, and if the type founder
and engraver can produce the requisite material,
your order will be filled promptly and satisfac-
torily. New types, new presses, new machinery
new methods, and new patrons will constitute
our "New Departure" Behold, create all
things new."

LET BILL GO IN AGAIN
BY JAMES ROWE

BY JAMES ROWE
IT was noon hour in the workshop;
The emptied pals were closed,
And thele toiler smoked pipe,
And here a toiler dozed.
Thus spake the workshop scholar
Unto his comrades: "Men,
We've had good times since Bills been in !:
Let Bill 60 in again.
"This Bryan is scholar
And heavy in his jaw,
And every word he let's us hear
Is just as clear as law;
But though, he has our sympathy,
Well run no chances, men:
We've had good times since Bill's been in
Let Bill 60 in again.
"We've taters in our cellar,
And in our ice box meat:
-Four years ago we scarcely had
Enough Of bread to eat.
We're working now, and growing fat,
Have lager now and then;
We've had good times since Bills been in;
Let Bill go in again" N. Y Sun.

A HOPELESS CASE

He was just common sinner,
But he'd buy tramp dinner,
And he sort o. try to put him on his feet
An feer might be needy.
An his raiment torn and seedy,
Yet he'd stop an visit with him in the street.
He made do about it
Would MT brsg round shout II,
Yet he did q heap to help his fellow men;
When he'd find fallen brother,
In some easy way other,
He would make him organize himself again.
He had money, an he spentit,
Er he gave away er lentit,
Seemed ez II the more he lost the more he got,
Made all sorts OF big donations,
Helped support his poor relations,
An he bought orphan school house and lot
Never heard O. him o.shoutn,'
Nor settin' round a-spoutin
Bout the everlsstin' wickedness things,
But he jest went OH afndin
Deeds to do and never mindin'
Much about crown, er harp with golden strings
Yet the Deacon's folks (ito very
Hard to say it) they merry
When at last Death came and caught him in the lurch
Fer they knowed the Devil got him
An It served him right, dod drot him,
Fer he never had united with the Church.
