BETTER SIDEWALKS.
Old Sidewalks are Being Repaired as
Well as New Ones Built.

| During the past week The TRIBUNE
has received a communication from
a prominent citizen of Morris calling
attention to the fact that the side
walks in almost every part of town
are in many cases, in very bad state
of repair, and often positively dan
gerous. The communication would
gladly be printed in full, but for the
fact that the village authorities have
this, week. employed a man whose
duty it is to go over all walks in the
village and replace all defective
planks with good ones. This policy
is good one, for damage suit or
two would cost the village much
more than to put the walks in good
condition. Then too, we all have
enough pride in Morris 20 rejoice in
having the walks in as good condition
as possible,
In this connection, The TRIBUNE
offers the suggestion that anyone
knowing of particular defective
places in the walks Immediately
notify the proper authorities, and
continue to do so IN the future. All
who have suffered accidents know
that defects are not always visible,
and that they may easily escape the
attention of an inspector,
A good many new walks are being
laid this year and with the old walks
IN good repair they may become a
source of pride to the people of
Morris.

A Missing Link.

It will doubtless surprise many whG
lave never even heard Of the brute that
there still exists on the island of Java
an animal, or rather a reptile, which
seems to be the missing link between
the ichthyosauri of prehistoric days and
the well known saurians of modern
times.
This animal is known to the Javanese
as ''linguin. 1t fell to the luck of
Baron Alfonso Pereira, consul general
of Austria Hungary, to shoot one Of
these beasts some years ago. Its length
was between nine and ten feet, and it
looked a cross between a snake and
crocodile. Though the beast was cut
and wounded in its encounter with
Baron Pereira it did not bleed.

There are all kinds of mines in Penn

iron and coal mines, but few people
would guess that the next extensive
mining industry is the sand mines in

rarely underground, however, and many
of them are viewed with wonder by
passengers on the Pennsylvania, ap-

are being dug away, and the granular

Report Of School District No. A.

The following is report of district
number 40, for the school year com
anencing Sept. 18th and ending June
18th:
Number of scholars enrolled fol
the year IS, number entitled to state
aid Al, our average daily attendance
for the winter months 20, spring and
fall %, with an average for the year
of25.
Ellen Anderson, Ida Anderson, and
Anton Nelson attended $50 days or
the entire school year. Arthur An
derson lost two days with sickness
20 pupils covered the century mark,
4 of the number attended $50 days,
William Nelson and Agnes Anderson
practically speaking having com
pleted the common school branches,
ssse using part of their time on
Algebra and Civics.
The habit of punctualitY is one OF
the prime features of this school. A
child inherits the habits of their an
cestors be they good or bad. Good
habits better their natural surround
ings so that they are able to exist
more comfortably. Their is economy
in the formation of habits of the
right kline in a child's mind for it
leads to greater things. Every time
you open or shut a gait, it becomes
easier-thus it is with the youths
without their preceptive habits are
formed.
The external influence upon
young person is that of their associ-
ates. Here is where the responsible
ty of parents and teachers lies. Our
character in the future is that of our
habits today. Again the lofty aspir-
atious of the intellectual youths and
maidens should not be discounten-
anced by parents or those under
whose care they have been placed, but
should be encouraged, Man is born
with ancestral desire to accom-
plish great results, vigor, health of
body, strength in young life gives
them a tendency that way, but in
tine they go to work and center their
energies upon one thing until they
are able to accomplish the work with
>ut thinking of it. The intelligent
power in man need not be consulted,
it has become fixed habit. :
