He said that the action of the instructors was taken after due deliberation and legal inquiry. He admitted the facts, but declared that he and the other defendants were entitled to the money charged, inasmuch as the work was done outside of school hours. He claimed that no man may be asked to perform a service without remuneration. Mr. Hierly "declared that the act of 1909 repealed the act of 1901, in respect to the 25 cent fee.

This, the attorney denied, claiming there was no inconsistency in this respect. Mr. Bierly; pointed out that he and the other instructors were under contract with the school boards to devote certain hours of their time to the interests of the districts and could not, under the contract, give their time to issuing certificates. He furthermore declared that he had been threatened with trouble if he should issue certificates during the hours which are given to school work. He held that the services rendered in issuing certificates outside of school hours entitled him to the remuneration and that it was not excessive.

With tho duties imposed by the State sn one hand and their contracts on the other, he said that he and his co defendants had done what seemed justifiable and was not a violation of the law. He asked for a discharge. The arguments and repartee between the attorney and the principals became quite heated and the attorney scored the school boafls for not giving their principals time to devote to this work. The justice reserved his decision until Wednesday morning. Mainwaring's Statement.

Rossor Mainwarlng, deputy factory inspector for Columbia, Montour and Luzerne counties, made a frank statement of the situation. He said that charges for certificates were not intended by the law and could not be allowed. He stated that the minor judiciary, when the members issued the certificates, had abused the right an.i that it was well placed with the instructors. Should they however, be not well qualified, but elevated to their positions through political influence, caring not for the interests of the people, a great harm might be worked if fees could be icharged. He wanted this practice stopped immediately.

He stated that other principals, issuing many certificates where the defendants issued few, had not made charges. In a later statement to the Gazette Mr. Mainwaring committed himself to an opinion that the act had probably intended to have the school districts provide for the interest of the principals, if not by a remuneration, at least by directing them to devote certain hours to this work. He said that the law would thus work benefit to the people in the end and was a fair and just act. Woman's Home Companion.

One day while Periet was waiting philosophically in his bath for an embonpoint which never came he heard a conversation in the next room, from which his own was divided by only a thin partition and which was occupied by an enormous woman, fat as the Hottentot Venus. "Doctor," said she, "I am getting tired of this." "Why?" asked the Aesculapius. "I have been here two months." "Well?" "Well, 1 am as enormous as I was when I came." "A little patience, madame," urged the doctor.
