Explosion at the Furnace

Last Friday morning our people were
startled by a terrific explosion at the
Emporium furnace, thinking the plant
had been blown to pieces, but it was
soon learned that it was not as bad as
was at first surmised. The explosion
was ccused by the iron breaking
through the bottom, and coming in
contact with the water on the outside
The men were working within ten feet
of where the explosion occurred, en-
deavoring to get the furnace open to
obviate the serious results of an ex.
plosion when the accident happened,
but fortunately no one was injured,
the force of the concussion going in
the opposite direction, tearing the
roof off the cast house, windows out of
the engine room and throwing bricks
and pieces of iron in every direction,
and as result the plant will be under
repairs for some weeks.
The entire force were at once put to
work, both day and night, tearing out
Ghe inside to have the necessary repairs
made as soon as possible, and at this
writing the work is progressing rapid
ly. The day previous to the explosion
the furnace made the best run of iron
in its history and the accident is big
loss to Mr.. Brady.

Concerning MiSfits,

Boys deserve what they themselves
call square deal. Do you know that
the percentage of boys who drop out
of school is decidedly on the increase?
Do you know why? You must grant
that it is a bad thing. We ALREADY have
too many misfits in the people of a
community, men and women who are
out of work are in the wrong work.
They cannot adapt themselves to their
sorroundidgs. And why? Simply be-
cause they are untraind. They have
the power, but they caunot direct it.
Unless we can keep our boys ia school
the number of misits will increase.
and we cannot afford to nave that
happen. We must 80 adapt our school
work as TO retain our boye in school
We cannot keep them tne.A without
giving them something worth while,
and We can we'll afford to give them
that though it cost us something at
the time.-Clarion Republican.
