Much enthusiasm has been aroused among both teachers end children in schools over the exhibition of pictures from March 26 to 28, the proceeds from which will go toward purchasing pictures for schools. Teachers and children have taken hold in an encouraging manner. If the people of the borough buy tickets freely, sufficient funds ought to be raised to enable a number good pictures to be bougut for the schools. A most attractive illustrated catalog exhibition will be obtainable at small price. It gives the titles of the pictures, classified according to schools and countries, describing some of the pictures and including biographical notes of the artists, and a great many of the pictures are reproduced in small cuts.

There will be some excellent examples of Italian, Flemish, modern, French, English, German and Spanish painting, as well as the art of the Renaissance. This collection, consisting in large part of carbons and photogravues made directly from the original masterpieces, selected by art experts and should attract large crowds of persons. A small admis: of sion which, will be after charged, deducting the the entire expense proceed: the exhibit, will be used in the purchase of pictures for wall decoration and divided between the library and the schools. The purpose of the exhibition is clearly two-fold First -To give people an opportunity to see a collection of the world's famous masterpieces of painting, sculpture and make it possible for the public to own a few of these pictures in the library and schools. Why should this exhibit interest you? Because, throughout the country, peoplo are awakening to the importance and value of good art as creative of a refining influence and inspiring atmosphere an just 80 surely as people become familiar with the best in art, just SO quickly will the crude in art be displaced through appreciation of something better.

It is, of course, idle to suppose that one shall become a competent judge of art simply througb studying for time photographs prints. Thursday and Friday 3.30 to 5 p. m. and 7 to 9. Saturday 1 to 5 and 7 to 9.30 m.

Patterns Amounting to Prob- ably $50,000 Destroyed. At 3:45 p. m. Wednesday fire discovered on the second story. the pattern shop of the Eagle Iron Works on South street, and although the employees of the works in remarkably short.

time had several streams playing on the flames, they continued to spread. The foundry whistle sounded the fire alarm lowed by the alarm at the Liberty Hose house, which brought out fire department, but owing to a stiff southeast wind prevailing at time, and the headway which fire had already gained, it was eviident that the building was doomed and the efforts of the firemen were directed toward saving the surrounding buildings the foundry and machine shop on the east, the Lykens Knitting Manfg. plant on the south and the lumber shed of J. 1. Delaney and the Lykens Mercantile property the west.

Two wagon loads of employees Short Mountain colliery, supplied with hose and fire extinguishers, were hurried to the scene and rendered valuable assistance. Supt. Auman, Outside Foreman Finton and Asst. Inside Foreman MaMahon were also present and did valuable work. Sparks from the burning building set the roofs of several houses the vicinity on fire but they were promptly extinguished by bucket brigades who were on the lookout.

The entire second floor of the pattern shop with its contents, an accumulation of patterns during the past 65 years and representing cost of from $40,000 to $50,000, was destroyed. Many of these patterns were for mine machinery and Il be hard to replace, The cause of the fire is attributed to a spark from the cupola of thefoundry falling on the roof. The foundry is owned and operated by Joseph Duncan. The lumber shed of J. I.

Delaney adjoining the pattern shop on the west, was damaged to the extent of about $500. Great credit is due our firemen for confining the fire to the pattern shop. Owing to the high wind the heat was almost unbearable but they stuck to their post until all danger was passed. PERSONAL MENTION. J.

Who can estimate value to the world of the mental training given in the public schools It is safe to say that if Lykens ceived its just share of the profits that capitalists acquire indirectly through the training of the boys educated in Lykens public schools there would be such an endowment to the borough that taxation would be unnecessary and teachers salaries would rise to the maximum of the nation, that is assuming, course, that the teachers would ceive their just compensation.

Some time ago I wrote to Rev. Steckel for certain information that I thought would be interesting to many readers of the Standard. received an interesting reply written by Miss Martha Stackel. few lines from this letter will doubtless interest the many friends the Steckel family in Lykens and vicinity. "Your letter has remained unanswered for the reason that a long anticipated visit from brother, his wife and little son, has been postponed from week to week.
