Hardness in High School
Reduced by Student Board

Camp Hill. Pa, April 2.-Tardi-
ness in the Camp Hill High School
has been reduced to the lowest pos
sible minimum. This has been ac-
complished through the Student
Board of Hardness, a committee
made up of two seniors, one junior,
one sophomore and one freshman.
This board meets every Friday aft
ernoon and considers all cases of
hardness which have occurred dur
ing the week
Pupils feeling that their tardiness
was unavoidable may file claims for
exemption with the tardy board.
There are six grounds upon which
claims may be based These are
late cars, drifted roads, late papers
for the boys which carry them each
morning. grocer boys who are un-
avoidably late because of the talk
ing of orders, bad weather condi-
tions for out-of-town pupils, and
urgent duties the execution of which
could not possibly have been done
before or after school,
The tardy board considers each
and every claim coming before it.
If a claim needs additional eXplana-
ton, members of the board call the
pupil before them for Interrogation.
Every tardiness not exempted
takes two per cent. from each and
every subject the pupil carries in de-
terminins whether the pupil takes
the examinations at the end of the
term.

hand of Huntingdon county has been
arrested and taken to the Hunting
don Jail. charged with robbing Miss
Clara Miller, a well-known young
woman of Lewistown Junction, who
is employed as night signal operator
by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany at Alexandria. The holdup and
robbery occurred a couple nights
ago, as Miss Miller was going from
the station at Barree to-. the signal
tower. She was followed by the
man, who gives his name as e. e.
Rudy, and he lay in wait at a lonely
spot where he snatched her purse
and wrenched a revolver from her
hand before she had time to use it..
She put up stiff fight and her calls
for help frightened the scoundrel
away. 4
In the moonlight she got a SDad
look at the man and Rudy was ideii-
titled by her. After the man ran
away Miss Miller went to the tower
from where she notified Railroad Of
ficers Frank Ernest and w. II. john
ston, of Huntingdon. The officers
soon secured evidence pointing to the
guilt of Rudy and made the arrest.

TO REPAIR LEMoYNE STREETS

ICIhOyhc, Ia, April 2.-COunciI
will meet in monthly session to-
night. One of the important matters
to come up before the body will be
a plan to repair streets this sum-
mer. The Welfare League of the
borough has taken steps to oil the
streets and members of Council plan
to make repairs before the oiling is
done. Last year Council could not
give any financial assistance to this
work. but this year it is likely to be
different. An increase of two-and-
one-half mills in the tax rate will
bring more than a thousand dollars
into the treasury OF the borough.
Some of this money could be de-
voted to repairing the streets, a
councilman said this morning.
