BIO CBOWDS SEE THB SIGHTS- Santa Claus's Giant Christmas Tree Viewed Br Thousands. The holiday carnival was most successfully opened at Gable Co on Saturday and many thousands visited the big store and were delighted with the gorgeous spectacle presented to their view. The crowd was great in the afternoon, but the jam at night was something immense. The big Christmas tree loomed up beautifully at night and it glittered with pretty electric lights. Chief Clerk Curtis was complimented on all sides on the excellent taste and the originality displayed in the decoration of the big store.

After viewing the numerous sights on the first floor the visitors wended their way to the basement salesroom, which, during the holiday season, is mainly devoted to holiday goods. Here young and old reveled in the vast array of the novel and beautiful. The young folks were interested in the iron, tin and wood toys, dolls and games, while the older folks passed judgment on the pretty parlor lamps, the tine imported china and the bisque and china figures. The singing canary birds attracted a good deal of attention, and the decoration and illumination of the basement was so pleasing that people seemed to regret to leave the place. While the holiday stock is attracting so much attention no one should overlook the other and important departments of the Daylight store.

Men's underwear, for instance. Who won't think of underwear a cold morning like this? We've been doing a tremendous business in underwear more, perhaps, than any other two stores in the city. Our goods and the prices affixed to them accounts for the big trade in underwear. The people tell one another about our bargains; that's why the crowd comes this way.

The grip has apparently lost its hold in our section, as we find many reported cases convalescent and parading the streets and engaged in their regular chores. Methinks it resulted from slight colds, produced from indiscretions on the part of those who did not know their actual ailments, but surmised that a sriiflie was grip in its most violent form. A remedy: Quinine and a stim-ulent. The African Methodist Episcopal congregation, Rev.

All are-cordially invited to attend. Many, the past few days, have taken advantage of the skating on the dam at the Tyrone iron works east of town. On Saturday a serious catastrophe was happily averted by timely assistance. Several little folks, without accepting warning or heeding the danger signal, got onto the thin ice at the upper end of the dam, which gave way and plunged them into a cold bath. They were rescued and properly cared for without more serious results than wet clothes, and we are without the usual skating accident to elaborate upon.

Gas Was the Cause. G. W. Luther, an employe in the Juniata shops, living at 813 Seventh street, having been troubled with dyspepsia, took pleasure in giving the following facta when interviewed: "My stomach has been in a terrible condition for the past twelve months. Food would not digest properly, but lie in my stomach and ferment, forming gas which caused frequent belching and decided uneasiness.

The result of the first week's work of the fund for the employment of the needy and deserving poor of our town has been more than gratifying. Councilman Uharles Vo-winkle has received thirty-nine applications for work.

Of these, nineteen heads of families have been employed at the rate of 51 per day of ten hours. The men have shown their gratitude for an opportunity to earn bread for their families by hearty and enthusiastic application to their labors. Two hundred and eighteen tons of lime stone have already been placed on the streets. On last Saturday fifty-four tons of stone were quarried, hauled from Siiflier station, broken and spread upon the streets by nineteen men. The eight men employed in breaking the stone averaged nearly seven tons per man for their day's work.

This is a fair sample of an average day's work, and shows the qualify of the men em ployed. The contributions received by Mr Vow- inckle are as follows: Supreme Court Justice John Dean. .150 00 Charles Vowinckle 10 00 Councilman Charles H. Reed 5 00 T. H.

It was decided when the company was rganized that one-third of the net proceeds le retained by the company for loss of time and the minor expenses always connected with shows of this kind, therefore k3i 35 was divided between seventeen of hetweuty members.

Some of the mem- liers favored donating the entire proceeds io the poor fund, but the maionty favored the original plan and but $68 40 is left to urn over to the poor and it is now pro- iMjsed to purchase in bulk coal, potatoes or 'lour so that more than 68.40 in value may turned over to the needy. When the project was launched it was sixpected that the net profits would reach nore than $300 and that over t-uo couia De urned over to the poor. The result was herefore disappointing to the members of company who worked hard for the complete success of the affair.

M. (Bowman delivered a charge to the people. The congregation and committee of presbytery passed by a hearty vote of thanks to Mr. John K. Powell, manager of the Cres-son coal and coke company for two lots donated by him for the new church.

At present meetings are held in the chapel on i he Mountain house grounds, but it is expected that before many weeks they will nave a building of their own on the lots laentioned. The location is a little to the east of the Callen house and south of the r.iilroad junction a delightful situation.

Cresson has lately become an important railroad center, three branch roads, known as the Cambria and Clearfield division, now joining the main line of the Pennsylvania railroad at that point. This has brought a large number of very desirable residents into the community, the railroad company having erected several handsome residences north of the junction for the division superintend -mt and other employes.

AN AGED KESI DENT'S DEATH. Mrs Buartha McGlathery Passes Away at a Ripe Old Age. Saturday morning at ten minutes after 7 o'clock Mrs. Martha McGlathery, one of the oldest and most highly esteemed residents of this city, died of the accumulated infirmities incident to old age at her home, 1409 Eighth avenue. The deceased was born in Pleasant Vally, near the city, and was aged 82 years, 4 months and 26 days.

She afterward resided on the farm at what is now known as the East End of the city, until twenty years ago, when she removed with her husband to the home where all the remainder of her days were passed- Her maiden name was Hamilton and her marriage to Allan McGlathery, whose death occurred August 1. 1890, took place in this city December 23, 1834. To this union seven children were born, and six of these survive to mourn the loss of one who was always a kind and loving parent, a shining example of Christian living, one in whose death the beacon to the better life has only been transferred from time to eternity. The surviving children are: Samuel McGlathery, of Springfield, West Virginia; Annie, wife of G. T.

Hamilton; Fannie, wife of T. C. Parsons; Sallie, wife of John Black; Misses Senie and Belle V. McGlathery, the latter two at home and all but the one son, of this city. She also leaves two sisters, who reside in Pittsburgh.

Mrs. McGlathery was a life-long and consistent member of the Presbyterian church, having been connected with the congregation at Hollidaysburg before the First church was organized in this city. Her life was a continual living of the faith she professed and her death was a triumph. Funeral services will be conducted at the family home, 1409 Eighth avenue, this afternoon at 2.30 o'clock by Rev. J.

W. Bain, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, after which the interment will be made in Fairview cemetery. Eighth Ward L. B. Association.

Hughes. "The Voodoo," cr "A Luchy Charm." Several novel specialties are incidentally introduced in "The Voodoo," or "A Lucky Charm," the musical comedy which plays a one night engagement at the Eleventh Avenue opera house on Tuesday night, December 12 Managers Frank W. Sanger and Gus Bothner have given the public this time a farce comedy with a plot. The story hinges upon the attempts of a credulous woman to gain possession of a voodoo, or a lucky charm. She has been led to believe that by securing this she will become immensely rich.

From this incident the author, F. S. Gibbs, has envolved any number of comical situations told in a witty vein. A good company has been engaged to present the farce, headed by that droll Irish comedian, Thomas E. Murray, of "Our Irish Visitors" fame.

Mr. Murray is supported by Ada Bothner, the soubrette who achieved such a long success as "Teddy" in Hoyt's "A Bunch of Keys." Book News For December.

HELD IN HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING Several Interesting Topics Were Dis. cukard and Taken In Iia Entirety the was a Highly Interesting: One. SUPERINTENDENT WERTZ PRESIDED At half past 1 o'clock on Saturday afternoon last the Blair County Teachers' association met in regular session in the room of the Altoona high school, Fourth ward building.

The meeting was presided over by County Superintendent Henry S. Wertz, and that the association is meeting with success may be best illustrated when it is stated that fully 100- teachers were in attendance. The first subject taken up for discussion waa "How to Improve the Work of the Poor Teacher." It was opened by Professor W. H. Sheeder, who said in part: "I am reluctant to speak on this subject, being one of you.

The poor teacher, is with us in several characters. The lazy teacher is a fact sometimes existent. In Huntingdon at one time the chairs were removed; it were better to remove the teacher. The careless or indifferent teacher is out of his room while the scholars are assembling. Much dssturbance often arises in consequence of this absence.

The noisy teacher, by talk, by action, may create a noisy school. The fussy teacher is watched by his pupils and advantage is taken of his back being turned. The self-knowing teacher will not hear advice. The anxious teacher, willing to hear instruction, may be divided into classes: (1). The teacher can assiniulate and use suggestions profitably and, (2), the teacher anxious to learn but unable to apply the knowledge imparted.

The sel-satisfied teacher is on the way backward. Improvement, by direct supervision, by the principal or some one acting in the capacity of superintendent The superintendent should instruct in the presence of the young teacher. Fault finding is not sufficient. The principal must instruct. Good teachers avail themselves of all advantages as teachers' meetings, institutes, etc.

Teachers at institutes show by their criticisms what they desire, also whether they themselves are good teachers or bad teachers. The directors might deprive a teacher, who fails to attend educational meetings, of one day's pay. Educational meetings are indicative of good work on the part of teachers attending Poor teachers will not read educational works. The poor teacher may visit schools of reputation and learn new methods. Such an arrangement should be made that poor teachers may be allowed to visit Poor teachers will labor with a poorly arranged programme.

They can secure a well arranged programme from a reputable teacher. The most efficient remedy for a poor teacher is to cease to employ them. Why is a poor teacher employed? Friendship and policy regulate this. Superintendent Keith Poor teachers do not attend for the purpose of criticising, they attend for the pay involved. All else said by previous speaker is heartily indorsed.

The poor teacher fails because of lack of results; he will not attain proper results. The poor teacher, pursuing a superficial method, fails to reach educational results. Hold the teacher to results. Superintendent Cessna Am greatly interested in this topic. Ia it poor teacher or poor work of a teacher.

It is difficult to find a poor teacher. He illustrated by pertinent anecdotes. A poor teacher will not accept advice. A poor teacher sometimes does not want to be a good one. All devices fail to change him.

The reputation in the district is not reliable. Some poor teachers admit they are poor, but a visit to their schools may prove them to be very good ones. Poor work may be done by many teachers. Good government indicates good teaching. First class order indicates first-class work.

Management and tact should be attained. Visiting by a poor teacher will not always profit the poor teacher. The poor teacher is a result of the district and the patrons, and the directors. Professor Osburn Said Principals cannot always suggest to or direct primary teachers. Superintendent Wertz -Advanced salaries will improve the work of the teachers.

Good salaries will secure good teachers Principals and superintendents will not have time to train the poor teachers. Some teachers can never be improved because they are not fitted for the work. Poor teachers may do some kind of work in the upper grades and they will fail in the lower grades. Professor Sheeder In closing, the principal and superintendent can suggest from observation in other schools; maintained that principals and superintendents are responsible for the poor teacher's continued failure. The association united in singing "America" and then a discussion on the topic following: "In what ways can the study of history be made to develop patriotism?" Professor Hanawalt said in substance: Every person should be willing to offer services and life if necessary, for his country.

Iistoryjs the chief means ot developing patriotism. Knowledge ot laws and government are essential. History and current events are used for the same purpose. It is easier to teach than to tell how to teach. I like to review the earlier events of the government.

The recent civil war is a powerful lesson for teaching patriotism. Are Brazilians patriotic? Perhaps the government did not cost enough. Treason and traitors furnish a powerful aid in teaching patriotism. High examples of patriotism may be furnished elsewhere than on th battle field. On motion.tbe question, "How far should moral education be made to include courtesy and social etiquette," was continued until next meeting.

On motion, adjourned. WEBB NOT COMPELLED TO SI3N. What They Bid Waa Done of Their Own Free Will. The following appeared in the editorial column of the Mirror Friday evening: "Some one has prepared and published a card of thanks to the city officials for their assistance in organizing relief work, and the poor beneficiaries have been constrained to sign their names to the same. This parading of the names of those who through necessity have been obliged to accept public bounty is in execrable taste, There ought to be some less objectionable way of sat isfying the vanity ot our city officials.

We do not say that these officials started the paper referred to, but it is hard to believe that they did not know it was being circu lated in time to have prevented its pubiica tion, as they should have done, in view of the fact that such a vote of thanks is wholly uncalled for and the signing of it for news paper publication necessarily humiliating to any sensitive man under the circumstances. The men are under no obligations to return thanks for money for which they gave more than value received in hard labor." It is needless to state that the "poor beneficiaries" resent this effort to throw cold water on their expression of graditude to those who have devoted their time and money to providing work for the unem ployed. They fail to see wherein their ex pression of thanks becomes a matter for public criticism, and they object to the insinuation that the document was not prompted by their own grateful senti ments. In connection with this case the follow ing affidavit is made: "Biair county ss. Personally appeared before me, an alderman in and for the city of Altoona, James A.

McKay, time keeper tor the men employe under the rehet fund, 'who, being by me duly sworn according to law, deposes and says that he is personally responsible for the card of thanks tendered to the city officials by the men employed by the relief fund and that neither Mayor nor Ohiet ot Police Tillard nor J. F. Smith, street commissioner, had any knowl edge ot it. Me prepared the list at the re quest of the men employed. "JamksA.

In this age of schemes and fakes the unprincipled shopkeeper has arrived at his wits' end, having exhausted the different unsuccessful schemes by which he intended to draw on and rope in the unaware is raking his brain for what bright and fetching scheme he should springon an indulgent public next. What will it be? The public are not a lot of fools, as some merchants seem to think. There is but one way to make trade and keep it and that's the honorable way.
