Coasting on Sidewalk.

Notwithstanding the fact that there
is borough ordinance declaring 1t un-
lawful for any person to coast or skate
upon any sidewalks within the limits
of this borough, the boys and girls do
coast on the sidewalks, and they do not
confne that sport to the back streets OF
the town, but compel pedestrians along
some parts of Main street to get out Of
their way as they coast down the side
walk. Coasting is fine sport and we like
to see the boys and girls have a good
time, but coasting on sidewalks is not
only dangerous so far as coasting is con-
cerned but 1t makes the sidewalks slip
perry for pedestrians.

REopENrNo OF ASSEMBLY HALL
Large Crowd in Attendance Flag Pre-
scented to School by w. r. c.


The re-opening exercises Of the pub.
lie school Assembly hall last Thursday
evening was attended by large audi
ence. The hall was packed and some
people were compelled to return home
because they could not get seats. Some
Of the secret societies, Il. o. s. OF A.,
G. A. r., s. Of ", Improved Order Of
Red Men and B. =. .. +. attended the
exercises.
All the speakers who were advertised,
excepting Dr. w. II. Crawford, presi-
dent OF Allegheny College, we're pres
ent and the exercises passed off nicely
and were interesting. The first on pro-
gram was an overture by the public
school orchestra, which Is frst-class
musical organization, and the music
rendered during the evening was excel
lent. Invocation by Rev. A. J. Meek,
Phi. d., pastor of the Baptist church.
Prof. II. b. Teitrick, OF Brookville,
county superintendent Of public schools,
was the first speaker. His address con-
tanned good thought. DIR. J. w. Foust
on behalf of the school board, OF which
he Is an active member, made a state
ment Of the expense Of rebuilding the
school house, which amounts to 800, 900.
Doctor gave the people a statement Of
how the money was expended and some
of the difficulties and obstacles the
school board had to contend with in
getting the building ready for occu-
pancy as soon as they did.
After another overture by orchestra,
DR.. Isaac G. Keller, president OF Grove
City College, was introduced by Prof
Lenkerd, and for about 40 minutes
Doctor gave the attentive audience Il
plain and forcible Informal address.
Next on program was a selection by
orchestra and then Mrs. j. ID. Wood
ring, on behalf Of the John G. Conser
Womans Relief Corps Of Reynoldsville,
presented the public school with large
and fine flag. The presentation speech
was fine. 1t was neat and to the point.
The response was made by Rev. w.
Frank Reber, pastor Of the Presbyter-
ian church, and it is hardly necessary
TO add that the response was creditable
and well delivered.
The exercises closed with orchestra
playing "The Star Spangled Banner"
Our people were happily surprised
when they entered Assembly hall Thurs
day evening. 1t is we'll arranged and
is delightful room for entertainments.
Assembly hall Of to-day surpasses, by
far, Assembly hall before the fire. 1t Is
certainly a credit to our town.
As we gave write-up Of the new AS
sembly hall in recent issue, we will
not go into details at this time.

Shorthand, Penmanship, Etc.

Richard Hughes, who has had years
Of experience as an instructor in short
hand, bookkeeping, penmanship, etc,
will start class in Reynoldsville IL he
can get pupils enough to justify him to
take up the work. Several persons
nave already requested Mr.. Hughes to
give them lessons, and II there are any
others desiring to take up this line Of
study and will make the fact known to
Mr.. Hughes it is probable he will start
class. II he starts class in shorthand,
bookkeeping and penmanship he will
employ an assistant typewriter and will
give instructions on typewriter without
additional charges. That part would
be free. We believe Mr.. Hughes can
get up large class. The tuition will
be very reasonable. Mr.. Hughes was
an instructor in the West Sunbury
Academy few years. Persons want
ing to take lessons should hand their
names to him Immediately, as the start
ing of class will depend entirely on the
number OF pupils.

come if needed.
During the past a considerable
amount Of petty jealousy has existed
between towns in this locality. This
is all out of place and brings harm TO
all and benefit to m The malicious
representations sc often heard in this
connection should be frowned down

operation is all that is needed to hast

people have frequently heard OF the

come from that beautiful city. and it

two towns still more closely.
