Sick
Blood

Feed pale girls on SCOTS
Emulsion.
We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full Of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
SCOTS Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,
fullest in strength, least in

MAAOAuf a GoDs o. Aoous
To the Officers and Members of
the Directors Association Of the
County of Pike
GENTLEMEN We, the undersign-
ed committee appointed to draft
resolutions, respectfully submit the
following
Resolved, That we, the directors of
the schools Of Pike county, Pa, now
in session, approve and recommend
to our county superintendent, Lucian
Westbrook, a graded study course
for our county, and ask that he put
into operation such study course,
and further ask him to prepare II
uniform plan of examination ques-
tions, these to be used twice a year
in examinptions throughout the
county. We recommend to every
school district of the county and all
school directors that they make an
appropriation of twenty five cents a
year from the school funds to
defray the expense of printing and
mailing the examination questions
to every teacher in the county
teaching school. This we believe
will he proper step in advancing
our school system.
Besolred, That thanks be extended
to the county super ntendent, Lucian
Westbrook, for efforts in arrang
ing for this, the first meeting Of
school directors in Pike county, and
congratulate him on its success.
Also, That thanks be extended to
the program committee for the
excellent program prepared by them
also, That thanks be extended to
the able instructors present and
excellent advice and instructions
given by them.
Also, that thanks be extended 10
the county commissioners for the
use of the court room, and to the
people of Milford for the courtesy
extended to us.
We recommend that these resolu-
tions be published in the Milford
Dispatch and Pike County Press.

The school directors association
held here this week will no doubt
have beneficial results. The directors
mingling together and discussing
school matters receive new 'eas
and the progressive ones, those who
are really fitted for the position, will
no doubt be profited by the meeting.
Citizens in the several townships do
themselves injury, and inflict on
their children perhaps an enduring
injustice, by electing men who are
unfit for the position of school
director. The Office is without
emoluments. is oftentimes a thank
less one and imposes labor on the
occupant, but the good citizen who
earnestly desires the advancement
of the best interests of his township
and her progress in education should
sacrifice his leisure and give his
best efforts to the improvement Of
the schools in his community. The
time for electing directors is ap-
preaching and this matter deserves
the earnest thought of every right
minded voter.
