MILLER and BAILEY took charge, had been only $61,321.02 our statement was ridiculed by the apologists of the Re- publican board that has just gone out of office. The WATCHMAN bas information now that warmots it in stating thas for the year 1905 THE EXPENSES OF CENTRE COUN- TY WERE NEARLY $120,000.00. Thiuk of it ! Nearly double the aver- age of fifteen years under Democratic rule and $20,000.00 higher than our prediction made last September. Messrs. MILLER and BAILEY got out just in time to save the county’s being wrecked entirely. As itis there ie very little ready money in the treasury and notes to the amount of $40,000.00 to be met in a short time. The forthcoming auditor’s statement will be full of appalling surprises and it be- hooves every taxpayer in the county to peruse it carefully, for in all probability the taxes will have to be raised and you should know the reason.

By the noon hour everybody had assembled anl to begin the day auspiciously dinner was down as the "| first thing on the program. And sucha dinner as it was ! Oae of the most elaborate that a farmer's good wife, such as Mrs. Dale is, can alone prepare. The table fair- ly creaked under its load of good things with which to “tickle the palate and satisfy the inner man,” or woman either, for that matter ; and, of course, all the guests did ample justice to the repast. Following the dinner Clement Dale Esq., of this place, read a very complete and in- teresting historical sketch of the Dale fam- ily after which an appropriate address was made by Rev. W. M. Rearick, of this place, who closed by presenting to Mr. Dale a handsome gold watch and to Mm. Dalea gold thimble, the gifts of the immediate mewbers of his family.

WILLIAM LAURIE D D., LL. D. [From a picture taken fourteen years ago.) DR. Laurie CLoses His CAREER as PASTOR OF THE BELLEFONTE PRESBY- TERIAN CHURCH.—After having served as pastor of the congregation of the Bellefonte Presbyterian church for twenty-vine years and five weeks Rev. William Laurie, D. D., LL. D., preached his last sermons last Sunday morning and evening, at the latter time declaring the pulpit vacant. The doctor made no pretense to preaching the babitual farewell sermon, the only refer: ence to the fact that thay was his last ap- pearance in the pulpit as the resident pas- tor being when he declared the pulpit vacant. Both his sermons on Sanday had been prepared with the same studious thought and detail that always character. ized his pulpit efforts and were delivered in the same calm and impassioned man: per. . Dr. Laurie's services as pastor of the Bellefonte church are now at an end and it is not the intention of the WATCHMAN to devote any space to the whys and wherefores. But the fact cannot help being admitted that during his pastorate he did a good work. Called here in 1876, when hebad been at active work in the min- istry but eleven years, be entered upon the work here November 220d, 1876, and was officially inetalled as pastor the fullowing month, December 26th. That he attained a reputation as a bard worker and pro- found theologian is evidenced by the fact that in 1886 Lafayette college conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Divinity; in 1897 he was elected moderator of the Synod of Pennsylvania and in 1898 he was honored with the degree of Doctor of Laws by the Western University of Pennsyl- vania. When Rev. Laurie began his pastorate of the Belletoute church it was with a debt of from five to six thousand dollars hang- ing over it. He went to work with a will and in doe time bad the satiefaction of seeing the debt <iped ont. At thas time the Sunday school was holding services in the old Wigwam on the southeast corner of the school house commons. That build- ing became insecure und in 1881 was torn down. [Iu 1883 a movement was started for the erection of a building for Sunday school purposes and in 1884 the handsome chapel north of the church was completed at a cost of $17,000 and dedicated in the fall of the same year. Since that time the parsonage has heen repaired at a cost of $3,500 while fiom{$16,000 to $17,000 were expended on remodeling and improving she church. In addition there was raised and contributed to the various mission ‘boards of the church the sum of $69,664 and to miscellaneous benevolences $22,128, Inclading all the above and for pastoral support and church expenses the amount contributed by the church during Dr. Lanrie’s pastorate aggregated the credita- ble sum of[§207,378, as against $142,312 in the previous three Guarters of a century. In addition to this vast sum of money he succeeded in raising for church purposes Dr. Laurie was instrumental in raising the sam of $6,000 for the remodeling of the Academy about filteen years ago. As to his other work here, during his pastorate he preached four thousand three hundred regular sermons and over five hundred funeral sermons; he performed two hundred and twenty-one marriage oere- monies, made morefthan seventeen thous. and pastoral visits and ooited to the oburch six hundred and ninety-one mem- bers. When he assumed charge the mem- bership was two handred and forty; now it aggregates three hundred and seventy- four with a Sunday school membership of two hundred aud twenty-eight. Having thus retired from the pastorate of the Bellefonte Presbyterian church Dr. Laurie has not reti from the active ministry, and until he setepis 4 regular Fire COMPANY OFFICERS.—Both the fire companies met on Tuesday evening and elected officers for the ensuing year.

On New Years day, as is the custom, new and bold resolutions were formed for the next twelve months, generally lasting about four minutes. To turn over a new clean leaf, to be real “goody,” but unfortunately—too frequently turn over cover and all, and con- sequently tumble again into the old channels and rats, but such is life. The beaux are beginning to think there will be little or no sleighing this winter and the little oyster suppers are so pleasant. But then there is plenty of time yet. January and February are cold, stormy months, and the adage has it, “When the days lengthen the cold strengthens,” so we may have bliz. zards and snows in store for us, more than we care -about—so be patient. The Holidays here passed off quite merrily and everybody seemed gay and happy. Presents were exchanged, big dinners served and the children made happy and lively with a profusion of candies and toys.

Our town and county was full of Christmas cheer and many homes had family gather. ings and turkey dioners. Probably one of the most pleasant was that at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank H. Clemson, who in. vited many to partake of their hospitality. At the home of W. E. Stover all of the fam- ily but one were home te enjoy a family reunion and share the presents and good viands prepared.
