Pajins off a Debt of $5,370.04. and Having a Balance of Over $5,000 On Hand. There is always enough censnre of public officers for their short comings, but seldom "the just meed of praise for duties well done." But we feel that the present Biard of Infirmary Directors, Messrs. McConnell, Stewart and Young, have so faithfully filled their pos lions, under embarrassing circumstances, that t.iey deserve to have their good work laid before the public. They have so man aged the affairs of the Infirmary, that they have paid all running expenses' have paid an indebtedness that was left as a legacy to them Dy tne previous Board, of $5,370 04, and had over $5,000 on hand the first of December. The receipts of the Infirmary are from board for inmates from other countieB, from products of the farm, from the board of Inmates paid by friends, and from sundry sources. From these sources, the present soara nas ceriiuea into the treasury, in tiree years and three months, $3,192.93, as follows: From Sept, 1st, 1896 1897 1898 1898.

We heard nothing but expressions of pleasure after the first one of the series, in which the claesical composure was represented. This promises to be of still greater interest. The so called Romantic com posure will be represented on this pro gram, and we bliva it will appeal to the audience in a more general way.

The Superintendent and Matron, Mr. and Mrs. Black of the Infirmary have been efficient helpers, and have gladly assisted in all reforms inaugurated by the Board. We congratulate the Directors and Superintendent on their successful man agement and the public will be much gratified at their excellent work. Afternoon Luncheon. A large number of young ladies of this city, are invited to a luncheon at 1 o'clock this afternoon, given by Miss Marguriete L. Miller, in honor of her friend, Miss Krauss, of Columbus.

Popular music, so-called, is composed of the simplest harmonies. It requires no special learning, makes no lasting im pression and consequently tires, as it does not appeal to the intellect.

The attendance was large notwith standing the extremely cold weather, In tbe absence of the President, Vice- President Mr. T. C. McCrack n presid ed. - Prof. CaBsidy led the devotional ex ercises. Prof. Britton conducted the "Round Table." From many of the good things given in answer to the questions discussed, we quote the following: There was a lack of educational sen timent in some districts. The teachers should bring about a higher standard in the rural districts. Centralliation a good idea. It will be brought bbout by growth not by legislation, and prove an educa tional and financial success. Afternoon session. Prof. Jones, of West Liberty, presided. Prof. Whitworth led the opening songs. The Misses Mable Hamilton ' and Grace Ingalls rendered a beautiful piano duett, and the hearty applause which followed showed how much it was appreciated. An excellently written papsr on tbe subject "The Icfiuence of the Home, School and Church," was read by Prof. W. L. O. Sturm. The paper and the discussion which followed emphasized the thought that the home iLfluerce is the most influential of all. The influence of home is greatly due to religion. Each of these ufluenccs has a distinct work, but each is depend ent on the other'. Everything we hope for and live for, enters in the home. The Vocal Trio, which followed was an artistcaiiy rendered selection, and brought forth long continued applause. The earnest t.nd carefully prepared paper, "The Aim ot scnool , read by Mr. R B. Cur was favorably commented upon by all vho took part in the dis cussion which followed. Same of the excellent thoughts were: Tne true aim of education is to develops character. . To develop the moral and spiritual natures requires consecrated work and a character full of the love of Christ. Another beau iful vocal trio captivated the hearts of the audience. The difficult and beautiful selection, 'Ths Hightide on the Coast of Lincoln shire," delivered by Miss Martha Rose- hrook, was given with a delicacy and benuty of shading rarely attained by renders. The vocal solos by Mrs. Thornhill were pleasing features of the program. The fiae musical program throughcu1 the aiteincon eddtd grestly to the pleasure of the meeting. Mrs. Thornhill, musical director of the Bellefontaine public schools, kindly furnished the musical numbers. The address of the afternoon was given by R9V. Mr. Buckley, pastor of the Dis ciple church, Rushsylvania. Impressions of Westminster Abbey waa the subject of his address, and waa one which prov ed interestng to the teachers. He urged that the teachers should get the idea that the Abbey was a church and not meiely a tomb. The bnilding stands as a monument' to the architecture of the 13 century. Its foundations are laid in Bhape of a cross, being 513 feet long by 200 feet wide. In this building is found an immense audience room as well as the tombs of England's most noted men. Services ire held here, where we find the minister in monotones address his hearers. The music however ia grand. Mr. Buckley mentioned many of the interesting points about the building and its con tents and paid many a tribute to the sleeping seers. Of all the impressive parts, however, the poets'corner impressed him most for he seemed from his reading to be ac quainted with these. The following resolutions in memory of Mrs. Whitwsrth were read: IN MEMORY. Since the holding of our last bi mo ntnly meeting one of our members baa been called to suffer the heaviest of afflictions. We, as an association, hold in grate ful remembrance the memory of Mrs Whitworth, whose mnience will live in this town and community, though she has been called from among us to the "rest that remainath to the people of God" in Heaven. Mrs. Whitworth was a woman of lofty ideas, was unassuming and retiring in disposition, was pure minded and tender hearted, bo that all who came in con tact with her were made better and nobler from having known her. Ai an association we tender our most profound sympathy to Mr. Whitwor and family and commend them to . the gnntainiog and comforting grsce of Gad who alone can give unto them the Vanuert of prats: for the spirit h.,yatss." oyie Fai.kkr.
