Borough Teachers Elected.

At a meeting of the school
board Monday evening the fol-
lowing teachers were elected for
the ensuing year: Supervising
Principal, j. Harper Bar t o n;
Grammar, Miss jeanne Morton;
intermediate, Miss Grace Lodge;
Primary, Miss Minnie Reisner.
With the exception of the super
vising principal, who gets a sala-
ry of seventy5five dollars a month,
the other teachers each receive
a salary Of fifty dollars. The
term was left at eight months,
and Monday, September 9TH nam
ed as the day for the opening of
the school term.
Owing to the fact that there is
a bonded debt of six thousand,
two hundred dollars resting upon
McConnellsburg school district,
and as it has not been found pos
sible to reduce the debt with the
old rate of eight mills, the board
raised the tax rate to ten mills,
with a view to reducing the in
debtedness as fast as possible.

A Whale of A Trout.

On last Friday, while Charlie
Grouse, was fishing in the Mar
rows, near Big Cove Tannery,
he caught a trout that meas
ured twenty-three inches in
length, and weighed four pounds
Charlie carefully removed the
skin with the head, and after
feasting on the flesh Saturday
morning, brought the skin to
town where it will be mounted
by Leslie w. Seylar. Local
sports are puzzled as to what
species it is. The spots are not
round, but star-shaped, others
are irregular shaped. 1t is proba-
bly, a rainbow species. We ven
ture to say that few, if any, lar
ger trout will be reported from
the waters of the State this sea-
son. Mr.. Grouse was fishing for
suckers, in a very small stream,
using a sycamore stick for fish
ing rod.

Learned Valuable Lesson.

Miss Margaret Reese, of Burnt
Cabins, thinks now that banks
are not such bad institutions, af-
ter all. Like many others, Miss
Reese, felt that if she took care
of her money herself, she would
know where to find it when
she wanted it. But after having
made a trip to McConnellsburg
last week, Miss Reese looked for
her money, and it was gone.
For a time she was pretty badly
scared; but, like some other things
that are lost, they turn up when
you are not looking for them, and
this was the case with the mon
ey. Now, Miss Reese sees just
how easy it would be to lose mon
ey kept about the house, or a.
bout her person, and she ha S
placed her money in bank where
it will not only be earning some in
terest, but she will know where
to find it the first time she looks
for it, and she will sleep all the
more soundly by being relieved
from the care.

THE HOUSE IN SUMNER TINE.
Little Talks on Health and Hygiene by
Samuel G. Dixon, NJ. D., IL. D.,
Commissioner OF Health.

When our remote forefathers
lived in caves an d trees their
household goods were limited to
a favorite club, a stone AK, and a
few skins.
The question of cleanliness was
a matter of as little considera-
tion as the question of ventiIa-
ton. Both of these took care of
themselves.
In the thousands of years that
have interviewed, with increasing
intelligence has come added ac-
cumulation of household goods.
Nowadays the poorest individual
among us would find it difficult to
load his belongings on his back
and move when the fancy struck
him.
At this particular season of the
year the stufiiness and over-fur-
nished feeling Of our places of
abode is a reminder of some of
the good points in our prehistoric
mode Of life.
For the sake of comfort, cool
ness and cleanliness, dispose of
your heavy curtains, thick car
pets and other unreasonable fur
nishings. During the summer
season the windows are open and
more or less dust sure to enter
the house.
To eliminate unnecessary fur
niture from over-crowded rooms
gives an agreeable feeling o f
space, makes the house easier to
keep clean, and is more sanitary
and comfortable during the heat
ed term.
A porch is one of the most use
full and enjoyable additions pos
sible to a house in summer. AS
a safe playroom for the baby,
cool and comfortable rest or work
room for the housewife, or a
sleeping room at night, it adds
to the health and comfort of the
entire family.

Dryers Recommended.

Engineer Francis M. Taylor,
whose duties bring him in touch
with localities where soil charac-
teristics are noted in his work,
complimented the News on its
recent articles on the evapora-
ton of fruit as one of the indus
tries that could be proftably de-
veloped in this county. Mr.. Tay
lor related stories of visitors to
the County VINO wondered at the
waste of apples in our orchards
because of the lack of market
for green fruit and vegetables.
He corroborated our statement
that a ton of apples could be re-
duced by evaporation to a small
fractional part of the original
weight, and that a four-horse
team could easily haul the evapo-
rated product of what would
have required many days to haul
to the railroad in the form of
green fruit.
The simple machinery neces-
sary to handle twenty-five to fifty
bushels of apples daily, costs less
than 500, and, by evaporation,
it reduces them to small bulk and
weight, ready for safe shipment
to city markets, at times when
convenient to do so, instead of
having tprush fresh goods out of
the County before decay sets in.
Every store in the County han
dies evaporated apples, peaches
and other dried fruits. Where
do they get them? Certainly not
from home dryers and Gamers.
Instead, they buy them through
channels in which several sta
tions took toll in the way of prof
fits, and freight to the jobber
and again to this place was paid
and all added to the consumers,
cost.
Great oaks from little acorns
grow" and nowhere is the sem
timent in that little quotation
better illustrated than when we
see how nearly every one of our
big industries originated in some
obscure little shop where the
owner began by making some
article needed by the masses, and
adding to his facilities as his
trade grew. What is more in de
to-day than dried and otherwise
preserved fruit? And where is
there a county better adapted to
producing dried fruits cheaply,
than right here in our own Lit
tie Fulton.

TIE SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.
One Of the Very Best Ever Held in the
County. Splendid Spirit
Of Union.

Judging by the reports of the
people Fulton County had one Of
its best conventions last week.
The weather, the program, the
speakers, the music, and the peo-
ple-all presented a high stand
ard for Sunday School work. Mr..
Reel toned up the County For
ward movement to a high pitch
in having the delegates decide to
adopt the Front line Standard at
once in their respective schools.
Jesus Christ from Heaven was
there and impressed himselfmar-
velously with his wonderful spir-
it Of harmony, unity, and love.
Among the other many things
worthy to be noted are the fol-
lowing:
/. No decisive invitation for a
place to hold the Convention next
year was presented.
2. Resolutions were passed to
the effect that all the S. Schools
of the County endorse the actions
Of the Convention in teaching
and demanding of its members
that Temperance be taught and
practiced and that our represen-
tatives in state and national Gov
ernments be informed by the
Secretary of the request to vote
for temperance bills and that the
voters at the coming General
Election vote only for the Can
didates who are pledged for
Temperance legislation.
3. The Special Fund for larger
work which the district Conven-
tions started last year be renewed
and operated again this year.
The renewal pledges will be re-
ceived at once. Contributions
from the schools are not large
enough to meet the necessary
expenses, not even the State
pledge OF $65. 90.
The officers elected are: Pres
ident, S. w. Kirk; Vice Presi-
dents, Jno. Snyder, Scott Bot

FLIGHTS AT FAIR
Glenn L. Martin, Famous Aviator,
Mas Been Secured for Four
Days Flying.

A contract has been signed by
the management of the Richland
County Fair where Glenn L. Mar
tin, world famous aviator, will
make aeroplane flights every at
ternoon of the fair, Sept. 1925
26-27.
Martin is said to be one of the
most daring aviators that have
ever taken up this most danger
Gus business. He is young man
but he has made a record forhiln-
self in the past seven years that
surpasses that of any other Pa
cific coast aviator. The follow
ing clippings taken from news
papers in cities where Martin
has made flights gives an idea OF
what may be expected at Wahpe-
ton:

tin today occupies a position, in
the esteem of the citizens of Sas-
katoon, which is an enviable one.
The wonderful demonstration of
flying given by him yesterday in
his trip across the city and in a
later flight at the exhibition
grounds was marvellous. Martin

terday and steered his plane di-
rectly for the Phoenix office. In
the vicinity of the Phoenix build
ing the streets were densely pack
ed with people watching for the
birdman and all the business
blocks bore large crowds on their
roofs. When he was first seen,
low in the southern sky, a cry went
up that was carried for several
blocks.
At first but a small speck could
be seen. In a few minutes the out
line of the aeroplane could be dis
tinguished with the tiny speck al
the front, where Martin was sit
ing at the guiding wheel.
Travelling swiftly at height of
about three thousand feet, Mar
tin went north as far as the C. P
r. diamond, where he turned and
