On Tuesday the Sharpsville branch will hold a meeting, and on Thursday there will be an lecture and moving picture exhibition under the auspices of the Tarentum branch, at which the league collection of slides will be shown by James B. Samson, and lr. W. H. Kirk will show his moving pictures of "A Newfoundland Caribou Hunt." Also, that same afternoon, there will be an exhibition of lantern slides for the Boy Scouts and school children of Tarentum, with Charles (Grizzly) Smith as the (speaker.

"Other favorite lurking places for trout are under fallen logs or the roots of overhanging trees, or in pools formed by the turnings of the streams, and in shady-looking places around rocks or boulders in the streams.

We would not feel so badly about this outrage had he not taken up all of the spare time of Frank Lefever recently, having this competent gunsmith almost remodel his old gun.

Why he failed to avail himself of the opportunity to try it out is beyond us. the only solution being the sins of old age. It is to be hoped he will redeem himself in the near future. Mistakes happen and we may have made one when we dubbed R. F.

Luxoln "Abe." Since we have eeome more familiar with tactics ha-5 recently been discovered he has a weakness for sweet things and bears no resemblance whatever to the rugged old patriarch.
