School Book Prices.

The recent investigation by a
Legislative committee of prices
paid in Virginia for school books.
In comparison with prices paid in
other States, will doubtless. taken
IN connection with another impor-
tant fact, lead TO the adoption of
the single book list i'm this State
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton Egleston, who has shown him
self to be the right man in the
right place." was elected really
upon this issue. and by such a
majority as amounts practically to
an instruction from the people to
the State School Board to adopt
the single list system.
Its adoption will make all school
books equally available in any part
of the State, in cases where a family
moves from one part of the State to
another. When county boards had
the selection there was lack of
uniformity and the charge has been
made that IN some counties the
selection was not based so much
upon the merit of the books as
upon inducement offered to indi-
vidual members of the boards hy
representatives of rival lubliShing
houses. The adoption of the single
list would abolish ali opportunity
for graft and secure equally good
books at much lower cost. Let us
have no more school book scandals
in Virginia, and let us give due
consideration to Southern authors
who are worthy of it.-Roanole

direct from its phenomenal run of
eight months at the New York
Casino, is the offering at the Audi
torium. Winchester. Va, Tuesday,

"a musical cocktail, which seems
"a be6tting description. The en-
tertainment is bright, snappy.

calculated to dispel the blues.
The story of "Pif Paff Pour

fore his four daughters have found
husbands. As the gay widowcr

affinity. Immediately they begin
laying plans To marry off the four

up To a number of other amusing
and excruciatingly funny complie
cations.
StanislauS Stange is responsible
for the book, and VIM. jerome and

If novelty of plot. ingenuity of
treatment, and an acting. singing

favOrieeS count for anything in the
makeup of a succeSsfolproduction.
it is no wonder Poi Paff Pouf"
has been such a popular favorite.

THE BORROWED ROSEBUD.

In loving remembrance of Elizabeth
cunningham, aged two years and one
month, who died December Il, 1906.
One day a fragrant flower
Was placed upon my breast;
kissed the sacred treasure
And laid il down 10 rest:
n tender blooming rosebud,
Still moist with morning dew;
An angel gave il, saying,
81 lend this bud to you.
I dearly loved the flower
And pressed it to my heart;
We never wished to sever.
We would not live apart;
watched it without ceasing,
saw the bud unfold,
And blossom into beauty
With charms that ne'er grew old
My love for it grew stronger
AS months and years went past:
We spent the time together,
l thought that it would last;
But, To- one winter morning
y messenger drew near.
To take away the flower
That long had blossomed here.
l asked, "Who claims my treasure,
The object of my love?"
The Gardener" was the answer,
THE Husbandman above;
M.
The Father sent me for it,
Fear not the parting sting,
weave il in a garland
For our beloved King"
Il take this precious treasure,
Remove it from your care;
And flee away to Jesus,
To place it gently there,
Among the choicest flowers
That lie upon his breast,
That he may share the sweetness
That makes his mem'ry blest"
"My heart will break with sorrow,
Without my treasure near;
Why take this loved one from me,
And leave me lonely heres"
Just why, cannot tell you,
The Gardener only knows;
'Iis well, Pm very certain,
SO spare Him this sweet rose"
said, Farewell, my darling"
Then kissed the precious one;
And whispered in my sorrow,
Dear Lord. Thy will be done;
Some time I'll know the reason.
If il is right to know;
So. Father. take the flower
That | have cherished So"

Bernie Gallagher. probably the
premier amateur pitcher of Wash
ingtOn, whose work in The Wash
ingtOn Posts series was quite a
feature of the games, has signed
to pitch for the Winchester inde-
pendent team next season. Gal
lagher'S status as an amateur will
hardly be affected, as the precedent
established in the Macdonald case
practically gives Washington anna

catcher; Big Cy" Macdonald. the

during the meeting, and an ex-
tremely interesting session re-
suited.
The committee appointed to con
fer with the property owner. iook-
inc to a purchase of the strip of
land needed for street to the site
Of the new depot, made a report.
The price set upon the rorper'y
was considered.too high, and the
Town Attorney, +. b. Whiting.
w,s instructed to begin cohdemna-
ton proceedings looking Ia the
securing of the land.
The matter of securing electric
lights for the town was brought
up. and Mr.. Moore, representing
the electric company, submitted a
proposition covering both arc and
incandescent lights.
The matter was laid on the table
until a report could be had from
Messrs. Lewis and Baker, who
we're appointed committee to
submit plan for the location of
lights and to consider the PROPOSE
ton of the electric company, could
make a report to the Council.
1t is probable that the condem-
nation proceedings will not come
before the Circuit Court until jan
uary 2s, at which time the regular
January term of the Court will
convene here.
The steps necessary will be the
application for commission to
visit the property and make a re-
port to the Court upon the value
of the same for the purposes re-
quired.
In the event thst the commits
sion is applied for ut the first day
of the term, a report will probably
be made while the Court is in ses-
sion, and work on the new depot
can be commenced at once.
The citizens of the community
want the new depot as soon as
possible, and everyone hopes for a
speedy settlement of the contro-
versy as to the value of the land,
and an Immediate start upon the
construction of the new station.
