RAILROAD TALK.

With the spring time and the blue
birds and the wild geese flying
northward comes to us the periodical
talk of a railway up the valley. It
is now said that a party of Easton
gentlemen headed by DR.. ]. H. Shull
of Stroudsburg, has secured nearly
all the right of way to Bushkill for
a road to be operated by steam and
electricity, and that it will be built
the coming season. "Hope springs
eternal in the human breast" and
again the feeling comes over us that
there is a possibility that we. may
yet see the cars gliding through this
valley.

How many of our school children,
or for chat matter those of larger
growth, can repeat the National
hymn without stumbling. In olden
times one of the exercises in day
schools, and also in Sunday schools,
was to have pupils commit verses
from the Bible and also hymns In
this manner they became familiar
with the most well known and pop
ular hymns and many could repeat
a large number Of them, These
customs seem to have fallen to a
large extent into disase. The bene-
fit was not only to have children
familiar with the hymns most COM
monty sung but the practice also
greatly strengthened the memory
and aided in committing more read
lily.
