W. T. GOOCH

In the standing of our contestants
on the first page, the type makes us
say that W. L. Bridenstine has 52,-
250 votes, when it should read 25,-
250 votes. It is just a transposition
of the 2 and the 5, but it makes a
wnole lot of difference.
The city council last Wednesday

A GREAT TELEGRAPH SCHOOL.
That Parsons has one of the best
Telegraph Schools in the country is
evidenced by the fact that Railroad
Companies are seeking its gradu-
ates. During the past week this
school had ben more calls for opera-
tors than it was able to fill at sala-
ries ranging from $40 to S100 per
month. The demand made upon
this school is caused partly by the
shortage of operators and partly be-
cause the students from the Parsons
School of Telegraphy are qualified
to hold positions as operators, and
are trained for regular railroad
work.
Young people, if you wish to bet-
ter your conditions it will pay ycu
to correspond with this school and
consider a course in Telegraphy. It
will pay large dividends on the in-
vestment. For full pa: ticulars ad-

I'pon a rock-strewn shore,
Where the kllldee pipes on his mournful
lute
And the woods are rich in lore*
1 know a bay near the fragrant wood,
Along the water's rim.
Where the Jack-snipes skip on the shelv-

And the jocund curlews skim!
I know a spot on the pulsing wave,
* leside the moss-green weeds.
Where the hooked hatrachian fears
swim
And the leaden sinker leads!
I know’ a place where the red bird calls
To her warbling courtier gay
Where the blue-jay shrieks and ths
thrush throat throbs
With a matin roundelay!

Where the bar slopes sheer from a shal-

And the minnows dart and leap'
