If this bill becomes a law and the
work is prosecuted the results will un-
doubtedly be of great value to many

those to whom the utilization of water

and municipalities which draw their
water supply from the streams of the
State.
The Bolivar Breeze very truly re-
marks that one good, everyday, plain
plug of man, who makes money and
invests it in the town he lives in-who
employs labor, keeps his buildings
painted, and who can be relied on to
help along any worthy public enter
prise, is of more value to his town than
thousand loafers who only exist for
the purpose of criticising the really
useful citizen.
Mr.. J. T. Rothrock, Forest Commits
sioner of Pennsylvania, has prepared q
bill for the present Pennsylvania State
Legislature to appropriate $1,000 to the
photographic Division of the United
States Geographical Survey for two
years, beginning June 1st, 1901, for the
purpose of gathering data and determ
ming the volume and commercial value
of the waters carried by the Delaware
Susquehanna and other important
streams in the State. Under the pro.
vision Of the bin the Geographical Sur,
vey is to do the work and pay half the
expenses of the investigation.
The man who gets so marrow and
cranky in his religious views that he
thinks every person is going straight to
hades who don't believe as he does, will
be surprised at the number of people he
will find in heaven, if he gets there
himself. The true christian man or
woman should be the happiest mortal
on this mundane sphere, and they
should enjoy life to it's fullest extent,
but some of them who think they are
so good, and almost every other person
so awfully bad, would deny a christian
many of the joys of this life and make
the religious life appear to be an entire,
ly, gloomy, selfdenying life. Some
men carry their eccentric views into
their own homes and force them on
their children until the children are
turned away from the religious path
instead of into it. Parents should try
to lead their children into paths OF
righteousness, but don't try to drive
them; tits better to win them by living
sweet christian life daily. Long
prayers at family worship and denial
ofinnocent privileges, have tendency
to drive from instead of drawing to-
wards the christian life.-Kane Repub-
