him. Nameless he comes and name
less he goes, making no apology for
his appearance, asking no favors, un-
obtrusive, yet affable and kind. No
doubt but he has a besetting sin,
but why has he? The Christian
would say he needs conversion, the
mental scientist would say ne must
strengthen his will while theosophy
declares he is following the star of
his destiny. and can rise only
through rebirth. Who is right?
Religion has not solved the problem
or lessened crime. The greatest
crimes. carefully planned, cold
blooded murders, are committed
among the clergy and highly educat-
ed, therefore education will not re-
move penal institutions or poverty,
so the only thing that remains is for
the man to study himself and learn
the why of his own nature and
learning, his future will take care OF
itself"

MOTHER FORGETS RABIES.

Wilkes-Barre.- e.-Mrs. Mary Auvic
is the champion absent minded wom-
an of the state. She was enroute
from New York to Mauch Chunk last
Thursday with her two babies, one
two and a half years old and the
other eight months. When the train
reached Mauch Chunk Mrs. Auvic
calmly gathered her bundles togeth-
er and alighted, leaving the babies
behind.
Before she remembered about the
children they were on their way to
this city, and when the flyer reached
here Conductor w. S. Campbell re-
ceiyed a message asking that the
youngsters be shipped back. So
frantic was the forgetful mother that
special train was made up and the
kiddies taken back to Mauch Chunk

Chief Stone has been quoted as
saying that it is time to teach the
public the lesson that freight rates
should be advanced in order to per-
nit the payment of higher wages
The public, however, by which is
meant the great mass of our work
ing population, is very poorly paid
as compared with engineers, and is
in no position to make further con-
tributions to the latter through the
payment of higher freight rates.
Moreover, the enginemen are en-
plOyes and not partners, and what
they should be paid has nothing to
do with either freight rates or net
earnings, and is purely question of
what they are worth. Indeed, were
they to base their argument upon net
earnings, they would apply for a re-
duction of pay, since the railroads
are now earning only about 4.5S %
on their capitalization, as compared
with 5,54 in 1907 and $3.50 in
1902.
Unless both railroads and the pub
lie wish to be exploited by him that
hath, they should now present a
united front of opposition to the de-
mands of the enginemen.-Wall

Mantua School Troubles

Mantua Township people thought
they were dealing literally with
their school proposition when they
provided for two new stone school
houses at Sewell and Barnsboro, and
to expend $4,000 in adding two rooms
to the Mantua house making it s
rooms. Now they find that the law
prevents six room houses being of
frame-they must be Of stone oand
at best a repair bill of $4500> at Man
tua would be allowed to stand for
only two years and one year will be
allowed to build new six-room stone
building. That's the reason there is
agitation at Mantua which will likely
end in the selection of a new lot of
ample size and right location and the
erection within the year of a new six
room stone building.
On Thursday night last the Board
of Education awarded the contract
to build the two new school houses
to Frank c. Ware, of Glassboro, for
s11 1926.
