Dare FaMiLy REUNION. —This is the season of the year for the holding of family reanions and they have been quite numer- ous in Centre onunty the past few weeks, but of all those held none proved more in. teresting than thas of the Dale family, near the old family homestead at Oak Hall, last Saturday. It was very largely attended and when 10 o'clock arrived, the bour for calling the association to order, representa- tives of the Dale family were present from all parts of the county while scores of friends joined with them in the bappy re- union, George Dale, president of the association, presided at the meeting and an interesting incident to him was the fact that it was the seventy-seventh anniversary of his birth. Prayer was offered hy Rev. W, H. Dale, E«q., of Pittsburg, while A. A. Dale, E-q., of this place, made av impromptu talk extendiog a hearty welcome to all. The address of welcome was responded to by Hon. Leonard Rhone, of Centre Hall, who paid a glowing tribute to the Dale family for the part they bad in making the history of Centre county. Clement Dale, E«q., the historian of the association, read an interesting paper be- ginning with the landing of Christian Dale, the first in America io 1749, tracing the different member« of the Dale family throogh the first, second and third gener- ations, all of whom have passed away. He closed his address by referring to the schools, churches and customs of the peo- ple in early days, asgathered from the re- cords and traditions. After the reading of this paper the din- ner bour was announced and the gathering repaired to a grove near-by where a most samptuous repast was prepared, aud rela- tives, neighbors and friends partook of the many good things that had been prepared for the ocoasion. Almost two hours were passed in thus replenishing the inner man aud in social intercourse, after whioh the gathering reconvened in the commodions grange hall where all the sessions were held.

They were Dr. J. Y. Dale, of Lemont; Mrs. Helena M. Dale, wife of Geo. Dale, of Dales Summit, and Hannah J. Dale, wife of Geo. Dale, of | Lansing, Mich.

A committee on reso- lations was appointed which reported throngh its chairman a sketch of the lives of those who had died. Dr. W. A. Buck. ont, of the State College, a warm pereonal friend of Dr. Dale, sent a beautiful tribute Mr. and Mrs. D. L. White, of Michigan, sent a sketch of the life of Hannah J. Dale, of Lansing, that State, and a sketch of the life of Helena Dale was prepared by the committee. Ap- propriate resolutions were adopted, alter which Rev. J. I.
