loosen a flood of recollections that may be of considerable - historical value.


Inscriptions in stone sometimes weather so quickly as to be difficult ot read. Familiarity with local sur- names will make it easier to. deci- pher names. Your greatest difficuity will be with figures, for every digit from 0 to 9 has at some time been mistaken for one or more other dig- its. The figures 3, 5 and 8 are often confused; so also are 4 and 1, 4 and 7, 5 and 6, 7'and 2, and 6, 9 and 0. · Spring and autumn are the best tlmies to copy inscriptions and the


best hours of the day are those when the face of the stone Is a littie in the shade. Rubbings can some- times be made of difficult. stones.


This is done by laying a large piece of thick paper flat against the surface to be copied. Then use the flat side of a large colored crayon to rub over the iettering. If you re- sire to photograph a monument for inclusion in your book, it is advisa- bie to go over the letters with chaik to make them more readable.


If your community is less than a century old, you may be surprised that you cannot find the names and stones of persons you know to have been the pioneers. This Is not hard to explain. Ome of several things happened. They may have died be- grocer. fore stone cutters migrated to the community, so no stone was ever erected. A wooden marker may have been used and never replaced when it rotted away. An unsuitable, badly inscribed native rock may have been used and iater removed. The pioneers may be buried in some forgotten private cemetery. · Again they may have been interred in a burial ground . in an older villagc town nearby.


It is possible that the inscription: in your cemetery may already hav: been printed in a book or magazine articie. This has often happened in cases where the graveyards are his- torlc or contain prominent nationa) figures. A central western county collected and mimeographed ali the inscriptions in the publica and pri- vate graveyards within its bunds. Printed records of inscriptions, i; they exist, will probably be found in the local and state historical s: ciety libraries.


ant. One hundred and eight pupils were 'registered, which left the big new union school building with' only a few pupils.


This caused the "First Families" to see their foolish actions in a new iight, and they were glad to incor- porate the academy into the publlc school system, under the Regents of the University.


So at last Dolgeville had her first Free Public School, where pupils could be prepared for college and one of the first high schools in Herkimer county. Under the skillful guidance of such well-educated teachers Prof. Eggenberger, the scholarship

principal was consumed in teaching classes, when he should be visiting class rooms. They were paying him the wages of an executive, and yet he was teaching classes that should be taught by regular teachers. The principal should do no teaching, ex- cept when he was demonstrating teaching methods.


I could see that "His Majesty" was not taking kindly to my suggestions. Then I sald plainly that the selection of teachers should be left to the principal. I pointed out that a achool board knows absolutely nothing about the necessary qualifications of a teacher for a certain room or a mortoin grade:

How the Ambitions of Alfred Dolge Created an Industrial Dolgeville on Lone Site of a Covered Bridge


(Continued from last week.) King Had His Collar All Het Up I told them it was eminently unfair and disastrous to the school for the Board to select a teacher to please an influential office holder or poli- tician, and then hoid the principal responsible for such a teacher's work. I cited that only this last year four new teachers were engaged. Three of them were selected by the board and every on was an absolute failure while the fourth one, selected by the principal, was proving herself one of our strongest teachers.


,"By that time the boss of the board was so angry that he jumped to his feet and with clenched fists pound- ing the table, exclaimed, "That makes me hot under collar." He took the attitude that It was highly pre- posterous for a Manhelm farmer's erstwhile hired boy to have the gali to tell that august board of education

Dolge's dream of a free course in music for every musically inclined pupil had come to pass.

The following au- tograph letter, a flt and illuminat- ing chapter of this chronicle, written forty-five years ago, to a journalist of the Mohawk valley, in heart-felt him, is more eloquent of the real Al- appreciation of a kindness shown fred Dolge, the consuming ambition, the keen heart-beats, of this beloved and unbeatable man, than anything the writer can add in emphasis hereof :


Auditorium Hotel Chicago, Ili., March 4, 1899 My dear sir:


Permit me to thank you for the kind words in your paper. My good wife, who has suffered more in this terribie ordeal, has sent it to me, stating in her letter that your words have almost restored her faith in mankind, which she had lost because of the great crime committed by so- called friends, men who stand high in the community, against the vil- iage of Dolgeville and myself.

Menge became the kind and under- the one main street of Brockett's altogether standing chairman of the board of Bridge and Jack Stewart wielded the education, and I won my first two points, at lesst in part.


For some years I tried to create an interest in school music on the part of the board. At iast it was de- cided that both vocal and instru- mental courses should be introduced. Then it was discovered that the bud- get was already $2,500 over that of the previous year. So a member of the board who was one of the Breck- woldt foremen, voted "no" and that ended the first chapter.

Accident Hazards in Home


Playing with matches and build- ing bonfires, carelessness with the handling of electrical appliances, overturning scalding liquids and hot grease, and open fires are among the chief causes of accident- al burns of children and some of them contribute to accidents to old- er people as well. To prevent such accidents, remove all fire hazards possible.


When cooking, turn boiler and fry- ing pan handles tward the back of the stove so they will not accidental- ly overturn. In serving hoti soup or coffee be sure it is far enough from the edge of the table not to overturn.


Do not leave a child alone with electric or gas appliances. Do not permit children to play with any sort of heating devices. Above all, never permit children of the home nor visiting children to handle matches. Protect open fins with fenders or metal shields to prevent children from falling into fires and to prevent clothes from catch- ing fire. Treating clothes to make them fire resistant is an added safe. guard.


For complete directions on spot and stain removal in the home, New York residents may sed nfor a free copy of Cornell bulletin F-356 to the: Mailing Room, Roberts Hall, Ithaca, N. Y.


Of all bottled and packaged foods kept in kitchen cupboards 95 per* cent can be put in a single row om shelves no deeper than 412 inches where they can be seen at a glance: and reached without moving other: items.
