The board of education of Shepherds
town district at meeting few days
ago reappointed all the teachers for the
ensuing year except Principal Kirkland
Mckee, who has accepted position in
a school near Clarksburg, w. Va. We
believe that il would be acceptable to
our people if the board of education
would make an especial effort to get a
good, strong, experienced man for prin-
II would require a large increase in
salary. A first-class man as principal
would be able to settle most Of our
school troubles.
We had an interesting letter few
days ago from our friend G. N. Moler,
formerly of this county, who is now
living in Washington. He says that
he is getting along fine, but We sort O.
suspicion that he bankers a bit for
good old Jefferson. He is employed by
the firm of Chaplin & Sacks, and he
says that they are turning out $4,000
gallons of icecream a day during this
hot weather. Mr. Moler adds: Don't

Joy II very much. love to read about
the soldier boys-those that are over
there and those who are going. Re-

Quality of Knowledge Counts.

What is needed to elevate the sou Is, not that a man should know ak that has beep thought and written In regard to the spiritual nature-not that a man should become an e.)cy' clopedia; tut that the great idea, in which all discoveries term,nAte, which sum up all sciences, which the phllos' opher extracts from infinite details, may be comprehended and felt, quotes William Ellery Charming. It Is not the quantity, but the quality of knowl edge, which determines the minds dig. nity. A great mind Is formed by few great ideas not by an infn' ity of loose details. 1 have kncwp very learned men, who seemed to n,e very poor in intellect, tecause they had no grand thoughts. The illumin' ation of an age does not consist in the amount of its knowledge, but In the broad and noble principles of which that knowledge Is the foundation ana lnspirer.

sons may be old.
Women and all their enterprises,
whether sentimental or otherwise,
are subject to the most fortunate
guidance during this configuration.
While the sway that increases ro-
nance continues strong and will con-
tinue so during the summer months.
there is sign warning that 1t Is
easy to be deceived when Uranus
frowns
Suspicion and unrest are believed
TO be encouraged when Uranus is in
evil place and this in the commercial
world may cause a slump in stocks
All the prognostications emphasize
the need OF cultivation OF optimistic
state of-nind. Uranus reminds oc-
eulists that thoughts are things
that may prove mischievous in
time of war.
Astrologers predict that there Will
be need of severe and inexorable PEN
alties for disloyalty or even lack OF
patriotism before midsummer.
Warning is given by the seers that
economy in public as we'll as private
expenditures is important
dangers for the king Of England

Theatrical affairs have the best
possible leading under this rule OF

Persons whose birthdate II IL
