Small School Buildings
There was "a line in Harrisburg, as
in lnany other Pennsylvania towns,
when either supposed nom or bad
judgment made it akin to a religious
outy TO place all school buildings in
alleys where land was cheapest; and
the narrower and dirtier the alley the
better. That time had passed in 1874.
But there were still many small build
lngs used for school purposes, some of
winch at least We're poorly ventilated
and not well equipped for school use.
three OF these in close proximity were
the Front street school, at the corner
of Front and Mary streets; the Chest
nut street building, at the corner OF
Chestnut and Dewberry, and the Ger
man building, on a portion of the pres
ent site of the Stevens building in
Chestnut street between Front and
Second. The two first mentioned have
long since ceased to be school prop
critics.
Inc tedcnerS IN the little Front
street building in 1874 were Misses
Jennie Robinson and Emma +,
nj Many, many years have
elapsed since weeping friends passed
before h coffin of Miss Hunter as
she lay in her last dreamless rest in
the audience room of Grace Methodist
Church. 1t has been but a few months
since Miss Robinson went to her re-
ward. Both were noble teachers of
whom it could be truly said:

1t was a rule of ethics in the olden
time Harrisburg to hold all elections in
schoolhouses If the election district
was so fortunate as to have one. The
Young America" of that day never
objected, for all schools, were closed
on election day and the youth who
was so fortunate as to be enrolled
as a scholar in a room used for polling
purposes got a double holiday, as the
next day was devoted by the janitor
to removing the tobacco guilds, cigar
butts and other evidences of enthusi-
asm and patriotism of the voters who
had saved the country the day before.
The building at Chestnut and Dew
berry was long the polling place of the
undivided Third Ward, and there l
have seen such staunch Democrats as
b. r. Meyers and Frank Boehmer put
up strenuous battle for their party
against S. S. Childs. Charles H. Berg

Farmers Exchange Annual

The sixth annual meeting of the
South Jersey farmers Exchange was
held Thursday afternoon, January Is, in
Woodstown, with quite a large attend
ance OF stockholders, which now number
737. The Exchange has had another
good year. tho not quite up to last year,
the net profits being SIS, O16. SO, as
against $l7, S0l.29 last year. The hot
spell of the weather the last oil July
caused a good many potatoes to rot in
transit.so that allowances had to be made
amounting to SO, $780, 9. However, Man
ager Davis said this was not altogether
caused by rotten potatoes, but in some
instances by the failure to properly grade
the stock. Mr.. Davis recommended
more care in the grading different sta
tions, so that when potatoes are sold for
the first grade they will be found to be
that when unloaded. He also recon-
mended that during the hot spells, that
farmers dig their potatoes late in the day
and get them out before the sun gets up
the next day, and to especially see that
they do not stand exposed to the sun.
The old Board of directors were elected
