FAIR NOTES.

The Wayne'tounty fair will be six
weeks earlier this year. Remember
the date, August IA to II inclusive.
Special rates have been secured
on the incoming trains to Honesdale,
which will insure a big crowd from
the LackaWanna valley.
Bring to the fair the best speci-
men of produce that you have. 1t
may take first prize.
The races promise to be the best
ever exhibited. The horses will
come to Honesdale before going on
other tracks. This will keep the
lovers of the equine beauty guessing
as to speed and class. A horse race
at the county fair this year will be
worth witnessing.
Have you decided to enter the
hitch race? If not, $40 can be earn
ed no easier than trying to take the
halter off of your horse, harness it,
hitch, mount buggy and drive the
horse once around the track. A
second prize of IS will also be award
ed.

HOLLAND DIES AFTER BEING
STRUCK BY TRAIN.

Lorenzo Hollands, aged SO years,
whose home was at Honesdale, died
at the Wellsboro station Thursday
afternoon at 1 o'clock, three quarters
of an hour after he had been struck
by a New York Central train. The
accident occurred near Stokesdale
Junction. Hollands, who had been
in Wellsboro for several days was on
his way to Slate Run. He was walk
ing to Stokesdale junction. Before
he reached there he laid down on
pile of ties to rest. When he heard
a passenger train whistle he arose
and started to walk across to look for
the north-bound train, stepping di-
rectly in front of the southbound pas
senger train. The wheels of the en-
gine, tender, and baggage car passed
over him, but in spite of these injur-
les he was still alive when picked up
and was rushed back to Wellsboro
in the hope that his life might be
saved. Hollands died, however, just
as the train reached the station.

New Use for Hospital
Fund Advanced
TO DEFRAY EXPENSES OF
CARRYING PATIENT IN AUTO
MOBILE TO SCRANTON.

understand that the idea of
having a hospital in Honesdale has
not been abandoned" said a veal
thy contributor to the hospital pro-
ject to a Citizen man several days
ago.
And yet l must confess 1 cannot
see the need for it. l know that
there are a good many others who
feel the same way about it.
There is absolutely no doubt
that the cost Of maintaining a hospi-
tai would be prohibitive. l have
seen the result of attempting to
have hospital in several places
where the population is many times
as great as in Honesdale and it has
always been disastrous. The money
has not been forthcoming.
So far as the need is concerned,
there are very few surgical cases in
Honesdale, and when hospital treat
ment is necessary, we can get to
Carbondale in an hour and Scranton
in about two hours, and be under
the care of experts. A friend of
mine, who is doctor, and thorough
ly understands the local situation,
suggested a capital plan for the use
of such a fund. He suggests that
when there is patient in need of
hospital attention, who has not the
means even to defray the expense
of getting to the hospital quickly,
that money be used from the fund
to pay for an automobile to get him
there"

EMPERANCE CAMP
At SEL|NSGROVE
Company E. 81 Strong,
Left Friday on D. & H.
HUNDREDS DOWN TO SEE THEM
OFF; 12 "ROOKIES" IN
THEIR MIDST.

" This is a temperance camp this
year." said Captain Carroll j. Kelly
to a Citizen man at the Union sta
tion Friday afternoon, shortly before
the 4:40 Delaware and Hudson pull
ed out, carrying a special car with
forty-nine privates and three officers
of Company Il, bound for the annual
encampment of the Thirteenth Infan-
try at Camp Ezra H. Ripple, Selins-
grove.
Hundreds of mothers, wives, sweet
hearts and friends gathered at the
depot to bid the militiamen good
bye.
The men wore the comfortable
light and sensible khaki uniforms
provided by the N. G. P. They car
ried their luncheon with them, but
no drinkables," which are strictly
forbidden.
Just before the train started one
of the company went the rounds with
a twelve-pound bag filled with to-
bacco, and gave each member a pack
of Dukes Mixture or Bull Dur
ham," and a pad of cigarette paper.
All but nine of the men accompan-
led the party, and they are expected
to follow next Wednesday.
Rockies" as the new recruits are
called, to the number of twelve, were
included among those who went to
Camp.
1t was expected that the company
would reach it's destination by IL
o'clock Friday night. They were
scheduled to take the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Bloom :"
division evening train at Scranton
for Selinsgrove.
Doctor w. H. Swift, who is an ex-
Chaplain of the Thirteenth Infan-
try, and who takes a great interest
in military matters, was at the sta
tion to see the men leave. Doctor
j. H. Odell, of the Second Presbyter-
iap church, Scranton, is the present
regimental chaplain.

GREAT INTEREST
IN MEMORIAL
Finance Committee Meets
and Discusses Ways
and Means
PROJECT TO ERECT STOUR-
BRIDGE LION MONUMENT
SURE OF SUCCESS.

A meeting of the finance commit
tee of the Stourbridge Lion associa-
ton was held on Monday evening of
this week at the office of Homer
Greene, president of the association.
All the members of the committee
were present, viz: John D. Weston,
Hon. e. B. Hardenbergh, S. ]. Dor
finger, Hon. A. T. Searle and Homer
Greene. Much enthusiasm was man
ifested by the members of the COM
mittee in the project for the erection
of memorial, and ways and means
were discussed and plans formulated
for interesting the railroads of the
country in the proposition, as well
as other corporations, organizations
and individuals. 1t was realized by
the committee that this is not the
work of a day and that in order to
carry out the project to successful
completion the basis for 1t must be
carefully, broadly and substantially
laid. The members of the commit
tee will take up the work at once
however, and carry it along as rap
idly as wise and conservative pol
icy will permit. AS one of the first
and necessary steps in the cam
paign the committee authorized the
publication of five hundred copies OF
booklet prepared by Homer
Greene, giving brief history of the
Stourbridge Lion and it's engineer
Horatio Allen, a description of the
trial trip of the locomotive at Homes
dale on August 8, 1929, and an out
line of the movement to erect a
memorial in commemoration of the
event. The committee is confident
that the plan suggested by the pres
ident of the association can be fully
and successfully carried out, and
that a countrywide interest in the
project, together with substantial
aid can and will be secured. The
movement is now we'll under way
and each succeeding day will add to
the certainty of its final and success
full consummation.

CAM SEEM To
BEAT TAYLOR
Home Team Beaten I. 5
But. Wait till Next Time
OUR BOYS MIGHT HAVE WON
BUT THEY DIDN'T; TWO Err
RORS RESPONSIBLE.

The County Seaters always seem
to get bad attack of stage fright
when they go up against Taylor, and
last Saturday afternoons seance at
the silk mill grounds proved to be
no exception to the general rule,
Leon Ross little boys going down
to defeat by the close score of Z to D.
The Honesdalers played good
game, and had it not been for two
bad plays on flies, both of which
netted the Taylorites two runs
apiece, might have won the game.
But then, the world is full of g might
have beens.' We might have been
President of these United States, if
we had been born lucky, but since
we weren't we have to work for
living like the rest of them.
Benjamin Franklin Hessling
couldn't get his drop" working
somehow or other last Saturday af-
ternoon. And that helped Taylor
too.
The Taylor aggregation contained
several " ringers" There was the
pitcher for instance, Yclept Stegner.
He comes from the Susquehanna
League, we are informed, and gets
his three square meals day at Ber-
wick.
Then there was sloppy" evident
ly a nom de guerre for some import
ed player. And Heating too. He
lives at Pittston, which is quite a
ways from the new asphalt streets of
Taylortown.
Oh yes, our boys got licked. They
took their third drubbing of the sea-
son from Taylor. But ye gods and
little fishes, we are going to beat
them next time or die in the at
tempt!
An error in judgment by Captain
Brader in sending out Kupfer for
ball that was really Dudley's result
ed in a collision and two runs for
Taylor. That was Bad Error No. 1.
Then Weaver who played center
field saw a fly coming out to him. 1t
wasn't very far for him to go to get
it, but he didn't seem to make any
effort to catch it, but just let it go.
Two runs for Taylor was the result.
Bad Error No. 2.
Nevertheless our boys played a
good game And they'd have won
it too,-if those two flies had been
caught!
Honesdale made five hits, Sander
cock leading with a two-bagger and
a three-bagger Mangan singled
twice, and so did Dudley. Five
runs on five hits isn't so bad after all
Taylor only connected safely nine
times with Hessling's curves. And
they were all singles too. Keating
had three, and Sloppy two. Stump,
Evans, Corbett, Stegner had one
apiece.

AGED MUSIC
TEACHER FOUND
Joseph Wagner Of White
Mills Was Lost in
the Woods
FOUND AFTER THREE-HOUR
SEARCH IN EXHAUSTED CON-
DITION.

Joseph Wagner, aged rs years, a
White Mills music teacher, whilst
out berrying Sunday afternoon, lost
his way in the underbrush and sec
ond growth timber, back over the
hillside.
The alarm was given about 8
o'clock in the evening by Adam
Yego and his son, who live on the
Long Ridge road, who claimed that
they heard someone hollering back
in the woods " I'm lost, I'm lost. :"
For some unaccountable reason they
hesitated about entering the woods
alone after nightfall.
Going down the road they met
William Blackney, Honesdale, who
was motoring homeward, and told
him of the weird cries they had
heard. Mr.. Blakney fastened to
White Mills, and gave a general
alarm. A posse of about twenty
men was speedily organized.
Lanterns in hand they searched
the mountainside for three hours,
before they finally found the lost
musician lying under a tree in an
old woods road, utterly exhausted
by his frantic efforts to escape from
his sorry plight.
An amusing feature of the excite
ment was the fact that the searching
party after they had located the
missing musician also lost their
way, and it was a tired, thirsty and
disgusted crowd that finally reach
ed White Mills long after midnight,
drenched to the skin by the heavy
downpour.

GIRLS ENJOYED
CAMPING OUT
Had a Great Time at
Camp KnOt-a-man on
Elk Lakes Shore
KILLED TWO BIG BLACKSNAKES
AND SHOOED AWAY AN UN-
WELCOME VISITOR.

Honesdale girls are not superstiti-
Gus. At least ten of them aren't, for
in company with three young Scran-
ton ladies they spent two weeks
camping on the shores of Elk Lake.
Just to be on the safe side, and
perhaps to counteract the fatal ef-
fects of the unlucky number in the
party, they took two brave guards
along with them from the Maple
City; by name, Dan. Monaghan and
August Williea
The thirteen girls who made merry
at " Camp Knotaman were the
Misses Margaret Donnelly, Marie
Bracey, Hortense McKenna, Lillian
Barberi, Frances McKenna, Bertha
Myers, Helen Oaks, Marie McDer-
mott, Elizabeth Barberi, Essie Kel-
ly, Honesdale; and Misses Vera Tu-
man, Mabel Goddard, Helen Myers,
Scranton.
According to the statement of one
of them, we went to bed so late,
we didn't know when to get up"
ohly JWO VI IllS pal IOOh d
watch along with them. One day
these two young ladies went to
Scranton, and the rest of the bevy
didn't know what time it was, or
whether they were eating breakfast,
dinner or supper. To be on the
safe side, they ate supper twice.
The girls had so much company
they didn't get time to get lone
some. More than hundred visitors
called at the camp.
The girls all took turns at cook
ing. Their meal schedule read
something like this: Breakfast at 8
to 10 a. M; dinner at about p. m.
and supper at obout p. m.
They killed two big blacksnakes
by throwing stones on them. They
passed the time by going in bath
ing, reading, and going out on the
lake for row. One night it thund-
cred and lightened something aw-
full, and another night a bold, bad
man tried to break into the cottage,
but the brave guards were awakened
and scared him away. Some of the
girls were scared stiff
Tired, sun-burned, but happy, the
last of the jolly crowd struggled
homeward Sunday night They said
that camping out was great" that
they were going out again next
year" One of the girls slept all day
Sunday, to make up for lost time.

CAN TEACHERS USE ToBACCo2

School teachers who have had leis-
ure during the first month of vaca-
tion to study the provisions of the
school code are now wondering
whether or not the tobacco-using
pedagogue will be eligible for cleo
ton when the new law goes into ef-
feet. The teachers who like an oc-
casional "nightcap" or cold bottle
now and then are also doing some
thinking.
The new school law has the fol-
lowing new section: No teachers
certificate shall be granted to any
person who has not submitted, upon
blank furnished by the superin-
tendent of public instruction, certi-
ficate from physician legally quail
fed to practice medicine in this COM
monwealth, setting forth that said
applicant is neither mentally nor
physically disqualified, by reason of
tuberculosis, or any other chronic
or acute defect, from successful per-
formance of the duties of teacher,
nor to any person who has not good
moral character, or, who is in the
habit of using opium or any other
narcotic drugs, In any form, or any
intoxicating drink as a beverage"
1t is likely that the expression,
narcotic drugs" may be applied to
tobacco users. Tobacco is surely a
narcotic, but whether 1t is narcotic
drug is to be settled along the same
line as pure food, or rather, adulter-
ations, are settled.

This is exceedingly good news for
travelling men and others in Wayne
county and is something to which
all will say amen.

they are unreadable.
