These Beautiful Flowers now in full Bloom.

A walk through J. L. Dillon S
green houses just now discloses to
the lover of flowers a scene that
cannot be surpassed for beauty.
Chrysanthemums, white, yellow,
and pink, by the thousands, are
now in full bloom. Two houses
are devoted to their culture, and
the beds combined are over 500
feet in length. There are numer-
Gus varieties of chrysanthemums,
among the largest and latest being
the Timothy Eaton. This flower
measures seven inches across. The
Wanaulaker is also a large variety.
Prices rauge from $3.50 to s. 90 a
dozen according to size. Shipments
are made from the Dillon Green
houses all over the country, and
during this month the demand for
them is very great.
Notwithstanding the big trade
in chrysanthemums, this flower is
only a small part of the output of
Mr.. Dillon's plant. Many thous-
and feet of glass houses are devot-
ed to carnations, geraniums, can.
mas, roses, and almost every con-
ceivable plant that has beauty or
fragrance. The Dillon houses are
classed among the largest in the
country, and their reputation is
national. The growth of the busi-
ness has been the result OF Mr.. Dill
Ions energy and his intelligent
management. From a little hot
bed of twenty-seven years ago, have
grown his two great nests of build
ings and Dillon's Greenhouses are
among the things that have made
Bloomsbury famous.

TIE SCHOOL JOURNAL.

In establishing the Columbia County
.SchOOL Journal Superintendent VIM.
w. Evans has undertaken work that
must prove of inestimable value to
teachers, directors, and patrons OF the
public schools. 1t puts the Superin-
tendent in close touch with them all,
and puts teachers, directors and pupils
in close touch with each other. If
the Superintendent's venture can be
supp ted, the Journal will be one
of the most important steps ever taken
by any county superintendent. There
are helpful talks to all concerned, use
full hints and suggestions to teachers,
valuable selections on educational
topics, and much else that is interest
ing. The teacher who needs no help
from such publications as the ./oHrnaL
is a finished product and ought not TO
be teaching country school. He
ought to be looking out for job as
city or state superintendent. Either
this, or else he takes no interest in his
profession, and is teaching only with
an eye on the monthly payday. He
has no desire to improve, and is not
willing to expend the small sum neces-
sary to provide himself with school
helps.
Every teacher, and every family with
children in the public schools, should
have the Columbia C0unN School
Journal Not merely for the sake OF
helping it along, but for the purpose
of helping themselves. The Superln-
tendent has undertaken the work
alone, and is responsible for all ex-
penses. He does not expect to make
any profit on it, neither does he expect
to expend good portion of his salary
not any too large, for the benefit o.
the schools, if those who are intended
to be benefited will not appreciate
his efforts.
The price of the Journal is only SC
cents year, and is edtel and owned
by w. w. Evans, Boomsburg, Pa

More Changes at the Lackawanna Station

There was more shifting at the
Iackawanna station on Saturday
afternoon. William Reninger who
came here to take E. S. FORWARDS
place in the ticket Office was trans
terred to the freight department,
and John L. Shoemaker going from
the latter department into the ticket
Office. Mr.. Reninger was previous
ly stationed at Northumberland
where he was in charge of the freight
department. He was unfamiliar
with the work of the ticket office,
and requested that he be changed
to the above position. He has been
with the company for a number OF
years, and comes here very highly
recommended.

Forty coils of wire consigned to
the Irondale Electric Light, Heat &
Power Company, arrived on Tues
day, and were stored in the rear of
E. w. Ivey's grocery store. The
store room as soon as Mr.. Ivey can
dispose of his stock and vacate, will
be used by the new corporation.
The arrival of the wire, together
with other preparations that are be-
ing made, would seem to indicate
that the company proposes to get
the plant in operation at the earliest
possible moment.

Features of the Close of the Anniver.
sary Services at the Green Ridge
Baptist Church.

The special services in connection
with the celebration of the tenth ami
versary of the Green Ridge Baptist
church were brought to a close yester-
day. Despite the fact that it rained all
| most continuously throughout the day,
the congregations attending both the
| morning and evening services taxed the
| seating capacity of the church
| AT the morning service letters en-
pressing hearty good will from Rev. DIR.
| Warren G. Partridge, of Cincinnati, o.;
Rev. w. G. Ford, of jamestown. n. Y,
and Rev. j. c. Brookins, of Auburn, n.
Y, were read. DR.. Partridge was pas
tor of the Penn Avenue Baptist church
when the Green Ridge church was Or
ganiZed: Rev. Mr.. BroOkins was in
charge for the first three months, and
Rev. Mr.. Ford was the pastor for nine
years.
Rev. Henry Sterling Potter the new
pastor, preached u short sermon on
"RetrOspect," at the morning service,
tracing the history of the work accom-
plished by the church in it's ten years

was addressed by the pastor and the

violin solo with exquisite feeling. The
pastor chose for his theme, Prospect" ;"
and delivered brief sermon, in which
he pointed out the great work and re-
SpOnsiblity which lies at the door of
every member OF the church. The text
was Matthew, 14:16-17. Among other
things. he said:
You all know that the crying need of
this city today is a moral revival which
shall shake it's very foundations, and
yet you shirk the task of contributing
your little quota to movement which
would bring about such revival You
say that your talents are not sufficient
| and you seem to be waiting for an
angel from heaven to begin the work
| with trumpet tone.
Put your talents and your gifts in
Gods hands, consecrate your lives to
His service and let Him do with them
as He will. The world Is saying, Give
us the bread of life and the Master Is
| calling to us, Give them to eat
1--WE may have but five loaves and
! two fishes, but you should remember
that the best work for the kingdom is
sometimes done by the humblest church
and the poorest preacher. In the COM
ing months let each of us try to do his
or her part, do something. for the cause
of Jesus Christ and not hide our tai
ents as in napkin, because of fear
that they are not sufficient to accom-
plish anything"
Rev. w. b. Grow, of Carbondale, the
Oldest clergyman in the Abingdon asso-
citation, was present at both the morn
ing and evening services, and delivered
the benediction on both occasions.

Wedding Bells.

Wednesday evening, at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. John l. Hensley,
Miss Mercy NJ. Hayes and Mr..
Orvill T. Myer were united as hus-
band and wife in the sacred bonds
of wedlock, Rev. W. w. Hartsough,
of the Extra Congregational church,
performing the impressive, sol
emn and sacred ceremony that
unites through life the destinies of
each to each.
The invited relatives, friends and
guests assembled in the spacious
home at the appointed hour. Every
thing bore evidence of harmony,
the soft flights blended harmonious
lily with the beautiful floral decora
tons and betokened happy yet
eventful occasion.
Amid the soft strains of the we'd
ding march, as they hoated out
upon the fragrant air, scented by
the budding roses, the young coup
lie, buoyant with hope and promise
| and crowned with the eternal conf
dence and blessings of love, march
ed with firm, elastic step and stood
beneath the wedding archway, over
hung with wedding bells of flowers
where, in the presence OF those
assembled, they made their public
vows that through life, for veal or
woe, sunshine or shadow, they
would ever strive to love, cherish
and protect each other.
| Mr.. Meyer comes from Iowa Falls
and while he is a stranger to many
of our people yet everyone knows
by his manly, frank and open con-
duct that the bride has chosen we'll
her life companion and defender.
He is a young man cool, collected
pleasing address and possesses
are always indicative of our true
worth and stamp indelibly on our
| features the higher, nobler and
| truer motives that spring from high
purposes, noble desires and lofty
| ambition.
Miss Hay es is young lady ofrare
traits and true refinement, impress
ing everyone with her purity of
thought and purpose and her sweet
ness of disposition. She is the
genial and happy possessor of those
elements of love, sympathy and
kindness that marks her pathway
through life bright, cheerful and
happy, strewing through life peace,
| happiness and contentment by her
deeds, and words and acts. She is
one of those girls of real worth that
words cannot express the goodness
that lies within her.
After the wedding ceremony and
the expressions of good will, best
wishes and fondest hopes for thei1
future, sumptuous feast was par
taken of with relish that indicated
the fact that it was one of the rarest
and best that the skill of the culti-
nary art could possibly produce.
The evening was pleasantly pass
ed, everyone fully approaching the
freedom and open handed hospital
ity of Mr.. and Mrs. Hensley.
Mr.. and Mrs. Meyer depart for
Iowa Falls, tonight, and after a
short stay will go to their future
home in North Dakota accompanied
by the best wishes of their many
friends who trust that through the
tide of years to come they may end
the journey of life reposing the
same confidence and love they now
enjoy.
