REPORT OF COMMITTEES ON NOR
MAI. DEPARTMENT.
BoARD OF VISITORS.
Gentlemen:
The Committee on the Normal Depart
ment, 90 which was referred that por-
ton of the Presidents report relating to
the sale OF Intoxicating liquors in the
city of Williamsburg. and other matters
connected Herewith, respectfully reports
that 1t heartily approves and COM
mends the observations made by Presi-
dent Tyler of the evil effects of saloons
accessible TO students; and the commit
tee also approves and commeuds the
earnest and persistent efforts of the
president and faculty TO deieat in the
court the granting OF license TO sell in
toxioating liquors in the vicinity OF the
college. and deeply regrets that the court
has failed 20 grant relief The committee
expresses its qualification that a move
ment on behalf OF the people. heartily
favored BY the president and faculty. by
an appeal 10 the local option law has
resulted in success. Il appears that the
election against the sale OF Intoxicating
liquors was carried by n decided major
i,s. and il had the support of many OF
lue best citizens of the city. 1t appears
from the facts reported TO your commit
tee thar all the mandatory provisions OF
,he law were strictly complied with, and
that the election was valid and cannot
be Tighifully disturbed. Yet 1t further
appears that an effort Is TO be made TO
induce the court 20 grant license 10 sell
liquors, or to contest the validity of the
aforesaid election. In view OF the inn
portance Of this matter your committee
recommends that the president OF the
college be authorized 20 employ counsel
10 contest any such action. The COM
uittee Is of the opinion that il Is advisa-
bic that ;he friends of the college should
act in concert with the people of the city
\ IN taking such further measures that may
be deemed proper to protect the college
against the sale of intoxicating liquors.
Respectfully submitted.

Changes in Col. Chambers Duties.

At the annual meeting OF the Postal

Feb. 20, the old board of directors was re-
elected, with one addition, to take the
place of member deceased.
The bylaws OF the company were
amended so as to provide for the Office OF

Albert B. Chandler, who has served as
president OF the company from its organ
ization, was.eleeted to that position. John
W. Mackay was elected president.
Says the Teleqraph-Age, anent the
change ave are glad to learn that Mr..
Chandler is to retain his rooms in the
Postal Telegraph building, and that al
though his we'll known and long-cherish-
ed desire Of retiring from the burden OF
business, which he has continuously car
ried for more than forty years, is now ac-
complished, in modified sense, he is still
to be prominently and intimately connect
ed with the extensive properties which he
has done so much TO build up, and that
this is done in such a manner as to be
most agreeable to his associates and him
self. We are also glad to learn that his
health is SO far restored that he has been
at his desk since October last, almost as
constantly as formerly, and with good
prospects OF complete recovery

Death ofAn Old Teache,

Unexpected news was received from
burlington last Friday night that Miss
Ella latham was al the point of death. As
has been announced in earlier reports she
was in the hospital for treatment for a
serious trouble of the head and fears were
entertained that ii might prove fatal. The
surgeon in charge did not express any
fear OF immediate danger, however. She
had been subjected TO three operations for
removing portions of the bone near the
left ear, two of them recently, and altho'
weak, was doing fairly well until the first
OF last week when pneumonia set in, but
with this complication, until Friday
night, no report of immediate danger had
been received here. She passed away at II
O'Clock Friday night, the immediate cause
OF death being heart failure. Her remains
arrived here Saturday evening in charge of
Miss Minnie Metealf Of this village, who
was with her during the last few days of
her sickness. Her funeral was held Sun
day in the Congl church and with the
largest attendance of any in recent years.
Miss Latham was As years of age and had
been teacher in this village for the past
II years and had taught the primary de-
partment of the graded school since its in
corporation in 1892, and for which she was
most admirably adapted. A large part of
her life work had been teaching, having
taught over so terms and with marked
success. Her skill and tact in the care
and teaching of young pupils could not be
excelled. In all the years of her instruc-
tion OF children here, never a word of
complaint from them of unkindness, harsh
treatment or ill-temper has been heard, al
ways love and affection, and this express
sion was silently manifested at her funer-
al, not only by her pupils but by her 7sso-
ciate teachers and pupils of other depart
ments, who had formerly been hers. The
community mourns the loss of valuable
citizen and benefactor Her funeral was
conducted by Rev. w f. Mann and in
charge of NJ. S. Adams. The pail bearers
were DIR. ID. l.. Burnett, @. p. Tarbell, w.
V. Soper and W. L. Webster. She was
the daughter OF BENZ. and Carson Durkee
Latham and sister of Leon ID. Latham, an
attorney at law in Milton, who have the
deep sympathy of the citizens of the town.

Dear Sirs: You are makers, so are we.
You know what you make; you know all
about it. We know our paint as you
know your goods.
We know what il is, how il acts, what il
does, how it lives, and how long-the con-
ditions being favorable or unfavorable.
1t is fair that we take the risk of il every
way; but we ought not to risk any use or
abuse of it.
Can't draw the line. We are dealing
with strangers. We are strangers to them
as they are strangers to us.
We want to be trusted by them. We
trust them first; that's the way TO get
trusted. We trust them To paint with a
fair degree of common paint knowledge
and care. We expect to be trusted to
furnish paint as good as paint can be, and
to last as long as paint can.
II YOU do your business that way, you
are a fellow with US and one OF thousand.
few mean men i'm the course Of a year
