On Wednesday evening at the Pre- byter.
ian Mansc, when about to hold prayer
meeting, the church people were surprised
by crowd Of boys escorting Mr.. George W..
Bucklew Of Rodamer's, and Miss Ida Re-
becca Fitche't Of Ambersburg, to the min
is,ers. The crowd that rushed into the
house were ordered out as quickly as they
came in, and the minister was about TO treat
the couple in the same way, as has occurred
with others, as they were evidently some
what under the influence of liquor Upon
inquiry, however, tAe Rev. Mr.. Ramsey
learned that the interests Of society would be-
better protected aid decency guarded in this
case, and the good names OF the parties
shielded by prompt contract of marriage
This he did forthwith and as soon as the
night was passed and sober senses came to
them, he sent them their marriage lines,
returned them the marriage fee and gave
them his blessing
moral :--'Thcy who come to Knrwood
to be married beware Of the bottle" The
parties married are very much respected and
the occurrence will bring keen regret to
many of their friends, but drink has no
mercy and they who indulge in itmly -,
for disgrace, be they ever so honorable.

TARDY TEACHERS.
Report or the Institute HELD mt Reeds
willie, March 10, 1902.

Specially reported for The Argus
The Institute was called to order by J. -.
Clarkson at p. m. and was elected chair
man by the people present. The subjects
of the program were ably discussed by the
teachers snd the patrons Of the Reedsylle
school.
The evening session was so interesting
that it was necessary to adjourn before the
program was fully carried out and the sub
ject, $40 what extent do you favor the use
of kindergarten work in our common free
schools" was taken up by Miss Persis
lIagans at the night session and very ably
discussed giving some very excellent thought
along the line of kindergarten work. After
this the program for the night session was
taken up and the people in the vicinity Of
Reedsville showed their appreciation and
interest taken in educational affairs 10y com
ing out to hear the different subjects dis
cussed by the moulders Of the characters of
of the youth of Preston county.
The program rendered was both Instruc-
tive and entertaining but the people were
very much disappointed due to the absence
of the teachers, there being only three pre-
sent; II ID. Carroll, J. b. Clarkson and
Miss Persis fagans. The eleven that were
absent are as follows: Misses Lney Orr,
Laura Stone, Myrtle Manear. Mollie Manear,
Julia iuddleson, Mary Huddleson and
Belle Meneat; and Messrs. w Il. Shaffer,
f. .. Shaffcr, Phillip Martin and J. o.
jenkins. Some of these teachers were in
hearing distance of the school bell and
some were visiting in this sub-disirict the
day the Institute was in session. This
looks like it is high time that the County
superintendent, the Boards of Education
and the trustees of Preston county we're
awakening 10 the sense Of their duty and
looking after the teachers who are taking an
interest in the advancement of education
ana trying TO keep in touch with the times.
And if they, as the gardeners OF education
Of Preston county, see that this garden is
being filled up with plants that will not
grow and develope in educational soil, weed
them gu, and give room for better class of
plants. And as we are nearing the time to
choose a County Superintendent for the
next four years, the people of Valley dis
trict are greatly in favor of man that has
the nerve to raise the standard Of education
and we think there isn't any doubt but
what he would receive a unanimous vote i'm
Valley district aud should in every district
in the county.
