PROGRAM FOR
DIRECTORS DAY

Directors Day at the coming Teach
ers Institute will involve a departure
from what has been customary in the
past. Instead of meeting with the
teachers and listening to an address
from some one of the more prominent
instructors the directors of the county
will convene In a room alone and
among themselves discuss whatever
subjects may have been selected.
A departure of some sort has been
under discussion for good while by
| Danyille directors. For years past
| they say they have been made the sub
! ject of abuse and ridiculo at teacher s
institutes by men who for all they
know would themselves have been
! failures As directors For the most
part the evils a-saiIrd do not exist in
the boroughs at all, but belong to back
woods localities where primitive
methods prevail. After all their
lamnooning our directors fail to see
.9herein they have been benefited and
they have decided hereafter to go it
alone, relying upon an interchange of
thought in an intelligently directed
discussion to benefit and to make them
more efficient as public officers.
The Executive Committee has ap-
pointed Thursday afternoon, Decem.

quired the bridge in much the same
way that Danville has fallen heir to
the bridges here and is in the same
way responsible for the keeping up of
repairs. 1t was the sense of the Trus-
tees that by taking the bridge over
with the force of men at their disposal
without any expense they could fill
up and grade the approaches to suit
their own ideas. The Trustees decid-
cd to take the matter up with the can
al company with a view of acquiring
the bridge as soon as possible. Nah
oning township will offer no objection
to getting the bridge off its hands and
has suggested the above action.

said:
"Where the prize is purchased with
money contributed by players. 1t is

their money and played for the pool.
When the prize is offered by some one
who takes no part in the game the
conditions are altered The players
put up nothing of value and IL they
lose are no worse off. The game, how
ever, contains many of the elements of
gamt ling. "
