To Raise Funds to Beautlfy School
Grounds.

Last Wednesday afternoon repre-
gentatiYes OF the Woman.s Civic
League of Westminster held a confer
ence with the teachers of the High
School for the purpose OF planning TO
raise funds 10 begin the work Of
beautifyIng the school grounds.
According to the estimate of Prof.
Anspen. who made the plans. about
$500 vii be needed To provide for the
cost Of grading and preparing the
front part of the grounds, laying ont
the lawns and walks. and planting the
ornamental trees and shrubbery. Of
this amount the League has agreed
to pay half and the teachers of the
High School have assumed the task Of
raising the remainder. 1t Is expected
that the School Commissioners will
contribute toward the movement, but
the teachers hope To raise at least
800 to supplement the amount prom
ised BY the Civic League. The cam
paign for raising the money Will be
begun Immediately. Every pupil Of
the school viii be given an oppor-
tnnity 10 share in the splendid work
of making the High School grounds
one OF the most beautiful spots in the
town. He may do this either By
making a contribution himself. or BY
soliciting contributions from others.
In order that this may be completed
this fall. the work Of grading and
planting should be begun at once. Il
Is hoped that the people OF the town
will cooperate promptly and gener-
onsly in this movement which has for
its ultimate object the making Of
Westminster into real "City BeautI-

With two=thirds Of his peach crop
picked. Irwin Chaplin. the Huntington
Valley grower estimates his crop at
from $4,000 to 25.000 baskets. Twenty
six piekers have been busy for weeks,
while six wagons hive been taking the
fruit over the section between Dan
Vile and Wilkes Barre. With the price
averaging considerably In excess Of 81
a basket, 1t can easily be seen Chaplin
has made peach raising profitable.
With 225 acres of peach orchards, half
the trees are not bearing, being either
too young or because OF having been
frozen during the cold weather of last
May. Strangely, all the trees on one
Of his farms were frozen. while his
present crop is al being harvested
from farm not mile and half
