"The Latest and Best Achievement

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 10, 1910.
Editor Nelvs and Citizen:
The knowledge coming by way of the
home paper that Morristown is on
the very eve of having a fitting memo.
rial to the boys of '61-'65, who went to
the front from that section Of Lamoile
county, is a matter that touches quickly
a responsive sentiment with the writer
who rejoices that this Soldiers Monu,,
ment reality in his native town. Not
on the stage of action in season to be a
participant in the trying events of those
days and years, yet the surviving verter-
an soldier has had no more loyal friend,
and the silent army of heroes gone, no
greater admirer from childhood up A
monument to suitably commemorate the
deeds and lives OF Merristo own's quota
of defenders it seems has been a dream
for years and the citizens are to be heart
lily congratulated that the realization of
such worthy undert aking is at hand
am SO very glad that such is the case,
but along with the satisfaction comes a
bit of sadness that it has been DELAYED
beyond the lifetime OF SO many OF the sur
yIving veterans TO whom it would have
meant So much could they have wit
messed the erection of such monument
such men as Col. g. w. Doty, Major
Darius Stafford, Lieut.. Harrison George,
Col. Amasa Gates, Albert Burke aud
scores of of others, in memory of whom
and all of whom together with those Who
died IN battle or of their wounds, sleeping
in known and unknown graves, | would
place a wreath of freshest green on Nor

Up Goes the Post Office Box Rent

An advance of % per cent on the post
office boxes in this place is announced
That it is an outrage is expressing it
mildly. 1t is decidedly unfair. Rural
Free Delivery carries the mail to the door
and all you have to do is to put box
out to receive it. The box is yours after
you once pay for it, and it can be almost
any old thing, so long as it will hold the
mail. How different here in the village.
The rates run from 81 40 to $500 a
year and the pay must be in advance
and unless you pay, you get no box.
There is one thing that can be done,
however, and that is you are not obliged
to hire box-the postmaster and clerks
can hand out your mail. Nobody blames
the postmaster it is an order from
headquarters and is the rate for all post
Offices of this class. Because the office
pays a good revenue, up must go the
box rents.
While it is true that other places have
protested in vain, that is no reason why
this office should not protest. We do
not know as it would do any good, and
yet it might, should a good sized petit
ton demonstrating against the outrage
be sent to Congressman Foster. 1t
would let those in authority know that
this jacking up box rents does not meet
with favor up this way.

The high school girls are "tickled to death" oyer the piano lately pur- chased for the school. A prelmi- nary practice for the commence mept chorus was held on Tuesday after school Mrs. Gay, who will direct the chorus, and whose enthusi- asm inspires the greatest laggard, rode down from Coronado to be at this meeting Mrs. Wayland has kindly consented to play for them. Both Mrs. Gay and Mrs. Wayland ex- pressed their satisfaction with the piano. the musical selections and the school girls and all went well at this first rehearsal.
 Mrs. Gay wants as many as forty voices for these choruses. There are scarcely more than half that number of girls in school. The senior girls and Miss uolmesley promised to do their best for her and will give as many girls and women personal invitation as they can reach. But distance in Clifton is long and time is feeting and they may not get around to everyone, so if those who sing will come to the high school
 building Saturday evening at
 o'clock they will receive a hearty welcome.
