STATE ORDERS NEW
SCHOOL BUILDING
Franklintown Board Receives No
tice That Old Structure Does
Not Meet Requirements

Dillsburg, Pa, April 7.-Recently an
inspector from the State Board of
Education visited the public school
building in Franklintown, and after
a close inspection; taking careful
measurements, some photographs OF
the building and questioned the prin-
cipal as to the financial condition OF
the town left. Several days ago the
secretary of the local school board re-
ceived notice for the State superin-
tendent. stating that a new school
building must be built before the next
school term opens. The present build
ing is a two-story two-room brick
building, but is too small and does not
meet with the requirements of the
new school code as TO light and sanl-
tation.

Course ! want lookin' forward to any
treat amt so strong for this recital
stuff as rule; but was anxious to size
up the young lady who'd thrown the har-
poon into Mr.. Robert so hard. Same way
with Wee. So we edges through to front
seat and waits expectant.
And, say what fin'lly glides out on the
stage and bows offhand to the soft pat
ter of kid gloves is only an average locker.
She's simple dressed and simple actin.
No frils about Miss Hampton at all. Why,
you might easy mistake her for one of the
girl ushcrs!
"Pooh!' says Wee.
"Also pooh for me, says |.
More or less easy and graceful in her
motions Miss Hampton is, though, got
to admit, as she stands there chattin' with
the accompanst and lettin them big blue
eyes of hers rove careless over the crowd
in front. They amt the starry, baby blue
kind, you know. China blue describes
em best, guess; and they're the calm,
steady kind that it's sort of restful and
fascinatin' to watch.
Almost before we know it she's stepped
to the front and started in on the pro-
gram. Italian folk songs is what is down
on the card, and she leads off with that
swingin' rollickin' piece, "Santa Lucia"
You've heard it, eh? That's some song,
amt it?
But, say, never knew how much snap
and go there was to it until heard Miss
Hampton trill it out. Why, she just
tosses up that perky chin of hers and turns
loose the catchy melody until you felt the
warm waves splashin' and saw the moon
light dancin across the bay! don't know
where or what this Santa Lucia thing is,
but she most made me homesick to go
back there. Honest And if you think a
set of odd-shaded blue eyes can't light up
and sparkle with diff'rent expressions, you
should have seen hers. When she finishes
and springs that folksy, chummy sort of
smile-well, take it from me- the hand she
gets amt any polite, halfway, for-char-
ity's-sake applause. They just went to
it strong, gloves or no gloves.
"Isn't she bully?" whispers Wee.

"Uh-huh!" says l. 1--WE take back the
pooh-poohs, eh?"
The next number was diff rent. but Just

nudge from Wee.
"Go on, Torchy," she whispers. "Do
it now!"
WE hadn't been sure first off that we'd
have the nerve to carry the thing
that far; but we'd come all primed. So
yanks the tissue paper off a dozen long
stemmed American beauts that Id snug
ged in under my coat, Wee ties on the card,
and tosses the bunch so accurate it lands
almost on Miss IIampton's toes.
Course any paid performer would have
been tickled to death to have crowd
break loose like that; but Miss Hampton
acts bit dazed by it all. For a second or
so she stands there gain sort of puzzled,
bitin her upper lip. Then she springs
that quirky, good-natured smile of hers,
bows couple of times, and proceeds to
help the accompanist gather up the
flowers and stack 'em on the piano.
When she comes to our big bunch she
swoops it up graceful, and is about to pile
it with the rest when her eyes must have
caught the card. Just as easy and natu-
raj as if she'd been at home, she turns it
over and reads the name
And, say for minute there thought
we had bust up the show. Talk about
goin pink! Why, you could see the
strawb'rry tint spread over her cheeks and
up into her ears! Blamed if her eyes don't
moisten up too, and she sweeps over the
audience with quick nervous glance, like
she was tryin' to single someone out She
don t seem to know what to do next. Once
she turns as if she meant to beat it into
the wings; but as the applause SINNERS

gait again and sings the last verse better
than she had before. Then comes an in
termisson, and when Miss Hampton ap-
pears again she's wearin' that whole dozen
roses pinned over her heart. Wee nudges
me excited when she spots it.
"See, Torchy?" says she.
"Guess we've started something, ch?"
says |.
