She Lived Too Far Away.

An old woman from the country
bought three boxes OF matches from
her grocer in town. It rained when
she was going home, and the matches
became so damp that not Of them
would strike. On the following Satur'
day she took the matches back to the
grocer and u%pbraided him for selling
such useless stuff. The grocer took
out one or two, and struck them quite
easily on the leg of his troucers, for
by this time the matches had become
perfecly dry. But the old m did
not think of this explanation, and ex-
claimed: "Tut, tut That's not good
enough for me. ! can't tramp six
miles to your trousers every time |
want to strike a match. Give me
three boxes of a kind car light It
home"

School Notes.

Last year the faculty comprised 81
teachers, including the superintendent.
This year the number is increased to
33 by the addition of one teacher in
the high school and one in the colored
school.
The Martinsburg high school now
possesses a complete commercial de-
partment for the first in local school
history, embracing all that is usually
taught in the best commercial schools.
Taking advantage of the opportunity
thus afforded a number of last years
high school graduates will take a post
graduate course this year in the COM
mercial department, at the same pur-
suing certain special studies.
With the notable improvements that
have recently been made to some Of
the school buildings, together with
some additional courses of study-es-
pecially in the high school-and the
exceptionally able corps of teachers,
| the prospects for progressive and sue
| cessful school work are exceedingly
! bright This condition must be very
| gratifying to the patrons OF our
schools and the public generally.
The total enrolment in the schools
last year., on the authority of Super
inlendent Brindle was 1929, with {
daily average attendance of 934. Will
the marked increase of the popula
ton in the past year the total enroll
ment ought to pass the 1900 mark this
wear.

In a number of schools Of the coun-
ty this year the teacher is beginning
her first term. We can imagine just
how you felt for we have gone the
same way. Were you not somewhat
confused. and did yon not for a few
minutes, after the bell had tapped,
think how young you we're? scarcely
older than your oldest girl and did you
not wish for some older teachers
presence to assure you? When you
tried to speak didn't your voice seem
strange? We believe You experienced
all these things. We did when we first
began teaching. W. want to applaud
a trustee or trustees who employs a
teacher for her first term. Some one
must give them a start and Why not
you. The older teachers VIII drop
out Of the ranks soon and we want
younger ones to take their places, and
nine cases out of ten, the teacher does
her best during her first term for there
she has her reputation as a teacher
establish, and she will try TO do
her very best. Remember, trustees, to
always encourage a young teacher.
Now, teachers, as vacation days are
over, let us get down to hard work.
Let us resolve to do something. Re-
member that every day you are mould
ing character. The boys and girls ua-
der your charge today will be the pill
lars of the nation tomorrow. Your in
will tell throughout eternity.
You are training a lot of minds that
will add luster or degradation to this
great nation. 1t is not the amount
Of scolding or whipping you do. IL

Is learning the most but it is the plain
little woman in stalling the plain truth
the youthful minds, day by day
is fulfilling the mission of teach
er the best. Do your best! Love your
work (and your pay and be proud
you are a teacher in the schools of

tell you how other teachers made a
success of teaching.

STANDARD ASKS A WRIT.
Attorneys for Company Move for su-
persedeas In Fine Recently As
sessed by Judge Lands.

Chicago, Sept. 1.-THE Standard
OIL company of Indiana Tuesday ap-
piled to the United States circuit
court for q writ Of supersedeas sus-
pending the operation Of the recent
sentence by Judge Lands in the
United States district court, In which
the penalty assessed against the COM
pany was fine Of $2S, 100000. Judge
Grosscup, before whom the applica-
ton was made, declined to take &C
ton until he had heard arguments
from tn attorneys on both sides. The
arguments consumed the greater part
Of the day. The attorneys for the
government insisted that the super
sedeas bond, II a writ Of error was
granted, should be as large as the fine
assessed against the company. The
attorneys for the company argued
for a bon, of 81 100000. Judge Gross
cup, while not specifying the amount
Of the bond, declared that he thought
II should be equal at least to the tota
value Of the Standard Oil company Of
Indiana.
Opposing counsel failing to agree
on any satisfactory arrangement as to
the bond, Judge Crosscup took the
matter under advisement, postponing
action until September II.
