ScHoon Boarp ProMoTes WAGNER. —
At a special meeting of the Bsllefonte
sohool hoard held last Friday evening Jo-
nas E. Waguer, principal of the High
school, was elected sapervisiug principal
of the Bellefonte schools to succeed John
D. Meyer, resigned. Mr. Wagner's elec.
tion was to complete this school term, bat
the probabilities are that he will be select:
ed to complete the entire term to which
Mr. Meyer was elected, which will be un-
til Joue, 1911. Mr. Wagoer is a gradaate
of State College and has been a teacher in
the Bellefonte schools the pass ten or
twelve years, having been principal of the
High School a little over three years. His
work in the Bellefonte schools bas always
heen of a commendable character and there
is every reason to believe that he will make
an efficient vapervisiog principal.
Mr. Wagner's election as supervising
principal necessitated the election of a
principal of the High school and after
careful consideration the hoard voted to
offer the position to A. Reiss Rutt, of Bryn
Mawr. Mr. Ratt was a former teacher in
the Bellefonte schools, consequently bis
ability as an instructor is well known. He
was at once notified of his selection for the
position bus alter considering she offer
veveral days he, on Wednesday, tele-
graphed his refusal to accept is. This, of
course, still leaves a vacanoy iu the High
school, which is being filled by Mr. Wag-
ver antil his sucoessor can be secured.

Business Praces, OLD AND NEW.—
The Manufactarers Outlet Clothing com-
pany, whose store has been located in the
Bush Arcade the pass year, have decided so
remain in Bellefonte and have leased the
room in Crider’s Exchange occupied by
The Racket, where they will move on
April firsts. Mr. Irwin, proprietor of The
Racket, has nos yet secared a new room
but undoubtedly will be able to secure an
advantageous location in due time and ex-
pects to continue in business in Bellefonte
in the futare as he has in the past.
Mitchell I. Gardner bae decided to con-
struct a store room out of the eastern side
of the Jenkins property, on High strees,
recently purchased by bim, and the same
