so literally upon them. Graduation

Illustrations OF that curious trait OF the
human mind which esteems more
highly that which comes from afar
than that which Is manufactured at
home. The settlements trade In Lo.
gan, Logan goes to Salt Lake, Salt
Lake sends to Chicago, and Chicago to
New York and Paris. This has always
been contrary to the spirit OF the
state and harmful to home merchants.
Anyone who sends away for what can
be bought just as well at home does a
permanent injury to his home town.
If the money earned In the town does
not stay there how is the town to
grow rich and prosperous? How many
women In Logan are wearing hats and
gowns bought In Salt Lake or Chicago
which could have been procured just
as well here in Logan? How many

vestment! We are far from being a
self.sufficing community and what our
merchants have TO offer isn't always
what we want as regards quality or
style, but before going to Salt Lake or
sending to Montgomery Ward we owe
it to our home merchants and to our
own purses to see whether we cannot
purchase as cheaply and as well with
them as with anyone else. 1t was the
absentee landlords who helped ruin
France before the revolution and who
are running Ireland today, and it is
just the same principle which can
bring about the mercantile ruins OF q
town with US, II the money which is
made In the town Is not for the most
part spent there. II the money does
not pass from farmer 10 merchant and
from merchant 10 farmer, then there
is a steady stream OF wealth passing
out OF the town which must sooner or
later weaken its economic strength, II
1t does not destroy 1t entirely.

FAREWELL STUDENTS.

Within the course of few days a
large number Of persons who have ad-
ded materially to the life and enthu-
siasm existing In Logan society during
the past winter will have left our city,
This condition Is brought about by
the closing OF our educational institu.
lions. A large percentage OF the stu.
dents that attend school In Logan
during the winter months are students
from outside settlements In this valley
and from our neighboring states, and
are now taking their departure. We
are glad to welcome these persons TO
our town and are proud of the fact
that we have educational institutions
OF such a character that they will
draw to US the class OF persons who
make their homes here during the
greater part Of a period OF from four
to seven years, many Of whom find 1t
desirable and convenient to stay per.
manently. While 1t is with degree
OF regret that they take their depart
ure, yet 1t is a source OF satisfaction
to know that many OF them will re.
turn this fall and take up their work
where 1t has been laid aside for sea-
son. The absence OF these students Is
being felt already. They will be
missed during the summer months.
They will be missed In the city
churches, as they form a very substan-
tial part of the congregation In many
OF the ecclesiastical gatherings. They
will be missed In social circles. Gath.
erings OF q social nature will be less
frequent until The dawn OF another
school season. 1t Is noticeable fact
that the students that have
been In the city during the past school
season reflect credit, not only on their
parents but also eli the community
from which they come We are
proud that our community presents
an atmosphere and environment OF
such a nature that these students can
return to their parents as clean moral.
ly as they were when they came to US.
Much credit is due the permanent
residents OF Logan for the stand stu.
dents take while here at school, for
nearly every family has under its jur-
isdiction from one to a half-dozen
boarders, and all seem to take pride
In exerting a parents care over
those students who abide under their
roof. We will be able next season to
furnish as good aid possibly better
educational advantages than we have
this season and the citizens are only
to glad to extend every courtesy to
any and all who care to come here for
educational purposes
The REPUBLICAN wishes one and
all a pleasant summer vacation and
trusts that they will find II profitable
to return In September TO again re-.
sumo their studies,

year after the battle, visited the bat

there the remains of many of the
Union soldiers (perhaps several hun
dred) lying unburied.
They were lying there, their skeletons
dismembered and scattered by dogs and
the vandal hands of rebel visitors to the
field. I was told by a young lady liv-
ing in the neighborhood that 1t had
been, up to the time of the fall of Rich

ties to visit the field, many of them

of the skeleton of a dead Yankee"

Editor National Tribune: Will you
kindly inform me what kind of coating
could put on the picture of Anderson,
vile. so I could wash 1t Off. A
Riedy, Sandusky, o.
There are a number of recipes for q
varnish for pictures, of which the fol,
lowing are the best:
1. A piece of plate glass is heated
and while yet warm little wax rubbed
over it; water is then poured over the
plate, and the moistened picture laid
thereon and pressed closely down by
means of a piece Of filtering paper
When dry, the picture is removed, and
will be found to possess a surface Of
great brilliancy, which is not injured
by the process of mounting.
q Boil Chic turpentine till brittle
powder and dissolve in oil of turpen'
tine.
8. Canada balsam and clear white
resin, of each six ounces; oil of turpe n
tine, one quart; dissolve.
4. Digest gum sandarac, 20 parts
gum mastic, eight parts; camphor, one
part; with alcohol, 48 parts. The maj
or engraving must previously receive
one or two coats of gelatine.
1t must be remembered that thi!
work requires great delicacy and skill
and the success depends upon the care
and dexterity with which the work II
done.-Editor National Tribune.

cents on all letters going out of the
State which could be paid by the
sender or the receiver; postage stamps
were unknown. The papers that came
to our home were the New York Week
ly Tribune, the Methodist Christian Ad-
vocate. and the Binghamton Democrat.
The two prominent political parties in
those days were the Democrats and
Wings. 1 quite distinctly remember the
Presidential campaigns of 1899 and
1910. William Henry Harrison of the
Wing party and Martin VanBuren of
the Democratic party were opposing
candidates. My father was a Demo-
erat,' and of course I was a very ardent
four-year-old supporter of his party,
The Presidential campaign four years
later is as vivid in my mind as tho
it was yesterday. Polk and Dallas
of the Democratic party, and Clay and
Frelinghuysen of the Wing party were
pitted against each other. Some of the
political songs are very fresh in my
memory yet.
There is so much of the long ago that
I could write about of interest to the
