1t is not the site of a town, but its
character that makes 1t a desirable place
to live. A live, prosperous town is a
desirable one TO live in, and town may
prosper and yet be small. Every citizen
in town should be interested in it's
prosperity. One of the best ways to help
a town is to speek we'll Oft. 1t is true
patriotism to stand by your own town,
and interests that effect the town should
effect every citizen.
Before and after taking: "Tionests

notwithstanding the repeated publi-
cation of the fish and game laws there is
still some misunderstanding as to the
time when the trouting season closes, and
for the benefit of those who are in doubt
on the question we will explain that the
season during which trout may be legally
taken in Pennsylvania ends with the last
day of July. For number of years it
was July 15, but in 1901 the legislature
changed the closing date to and including
the last day of the month, which is two
weeks from today.
