Feminine Fancies.
Our little home is not the same
AS once it used to be;
Belinda's using all the sheets
To make her lingerie;
The roller towel used to hang
Behind the kitchen door,
It's now a dress and hangs behlnd
Matilda and before;
Our tablecloth that covered once
Our table where we dine
Now covers Dorothea with
It's red and white design.
On using all these household things
For clothing, the girls are bugs;
/ only hope they stop before
They use the rarlor rugs.
School on a Hill.
"Why in the world anybody ever
wanted to locate a school house in a
place like this is more than can un-
derstand," remarked one Of the candi-
dates for county office who was at
Forest Hill the other day. Here you
see the school is located on the top of
a rough and rugged hill. There Is no
water here at the school house. My
idea of a model school location is
place where there is plenty of room
for a play ground and plenty of water
and neither are here. have been all
over York county and have visited
most of the schools at one time or the
other and the location of Forest Hill
school is certainly unique"
Why Forest Hill?
Views and Interviews asked q dozen
residents of the Forest Hill section at
the picnic at that place last Friday
why the school and community was
ever named Forest Hill" but no per-
son asked could give the information.
All of them pointed to the fact that
there was a considerable hill at the
school house and there was more or
less wood land around but whether
that had anything 10 do with naming
the place nobody could say. Nearby is
Nannie's mountain from which most of
the iron orr manufactured into cannon
during Revolutionary days at the iron
works of Col. William Hill is said to
have been secured.
No Buttonholing for Him.
roLx, NJ I,o,.l ,,ag;ctrafa of Rethel
township and a candidate for re-elec-
ton don't believe in catching voters by
the lapel of the coat and asking for
their support. Magistrate Ford was
talking of campaign methods up at
Forest Hill the other day. Il never
have asked a man point blank to vote
for me-not even my closest friends,
he said, "and 1 don't ever propose to
do it. l tell the folks up here in
Bethel that they know me and if they
want to vote for me, well and good. If
they do not then well and good. But
so far as getting q man off and getting
up in his face and asking for his vote
no, Stree, not me. I'll never Go it."
Plenty of Politicians.
How tkankless the lot Of the states
man.
How little the populace cares
If he burns midnight oil in hard, pains
taking toll
On sOul-racking public affairs.
Small honor accompanies office;
The salary almost is nil.
Won't they soon quit the race fol
such profitless place?
Well, no; it's not likely they will.
Give a thought to our members OF
congress:
At the imminent risk of their hcaitf
They gladly forsake golden chances tC
make
Uncounted and linnitless wealth.
Can such be expected forever
To labor like Trojans to plan
Always msInderstOOd-their constitu

They can, gentle reader they can!
Republics are always ungratcful?
They groan and complain and pro
