The voice of the cricket is heard IL
the land. This within itself is a warn
ing that in the near future we mus
expect the chilling frosts of October
and back of that the cold winds from
the Arctic North.
This behooves us to prepare for th'
coming winter by having our coal bin:
well filled and our wood piles piled higf
with green and seasoned stuff.
Those who prepare for the SHOWS thai
are sure to come. will feel much better
than the fellow who is too lazy to gel
his fuel ready for future use, and i:
compelled in all kinds of weather to cut
simply enough for present use and
many times the wife and children have
to suffer for the want Of coal or wood tC
keen them warm. Any one who is Q
man will not allow this, but will so fan
as he is able, prepare his fuel in ad-
vance sc that both the family and him.
self may enjoy the warmth coming
from a well heated home.
The writer has seen women in deli
cate health, compelled to cut the wood
or gather the kindling, while the hus-
band is wasting his time engaged in
gossip in the store or spending his
money for useless things, while his
family is suffering for want of food OF
sufficient clothing to keep them warm.
The grounds surrounding the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Station have been given
a thorough cleaning.
The weeds and grass have been now
ed and the hedge trimmed. making
things look like old times when the
company took so much pride in keep
ing things clean.
If the owners of the Gull ties piled
along the side track would remove them
it would enhance the beauty Of the
whole scene.
Archers Cannery situated at this
point will be open for the reception Of
tomatoes in a few days.
We understand that this large factory
will be run at it's full capacity if toma-
toes are available to warrant it.
The tomato patches around Ellendalt
are looking good. If the prices should be
high, as it now looks, it should be quite
a revenue coming to the farmers of thi:
vicinity.
The hunting for squirrels will be per-
mitted after Monday, September 2.
Reports coming from parties who
ought to know, say that there is more
squirrels IilS SSeI SAelAA es~Ae'i' 80
will be good news to those hunters whC
love the sport.

school building. 1t is very imposing anC
adds much to the beauty of our town.
