FORMAL DEDICATION OF BELLEFONTE'S New HiGH ScHooL BUILDING. — The formal dedication of Bellefonte’s magnif- icent new High school building, last Fri- day afternoon and evening, marked an epoch in the educational history of Belle- fonte never reached before. The build- ing had been a yearin course of construc- tion but when one views the commodious and substantial structure, and inspects the facilities now open to the boys and girls of the town in their pursuit of an educa- tion, it cannot be denied that the time was well spent; and very few there are if any, who begrudge the cost now that they see the results obtained. It was for a clese inspection and to witness the dedication of this building that large audiences gathered there both in the afternoon and evening of the above named day. The program as originally prepared by the committee of arrangements was carried out in detail with the exception that Dr. Edwin Erle Sparks, president of The Pennsylvania State College, was one of the speakers in the afternoon instead of in the evening, but this did not deteri- orate from the interest of the exercises. Dr. Melvin J. Locke, president of the school board, presided and introduced Dr. Sparks as the first speaker, who made a very pleasing address. He congratulated the board and the public at large on the completion of so substantial and beautiful a school build- ing, and urged the people to accommo- date themselves to the new conditions and circumstances by which they are sur- sounded, and to accept as new elements in education, the instruction in domestic science and industrial training. He used as an illustration the system of teaching and training in practice at the College and the great advantage it was to the young in their start in life. The doctor also expressed the hope that such instruc- tion would be adopted and carried out in our schools. Prof. C. D. Koch, inspector of High schools, delivered a very excellent address on High school work. By reason of his position as High school inspector he was able to make this talk both pointed and profitable. The Ladies Glee club sang “Annie Laurie” which was so much ap- preciated by the audience that the sing- ers were loudly encored. This was followed by remarks of Col D. F. Fortney. After expressing congrat- ulations over the completion of the build- ing and expressing gratification that the school children of the town would have better educational facilities than ever be- fore, he asked: “And what of the Ju- ture 2" As one of the new features of the school he advocated instruction in the useful arts in domestic life, and commended the Woman's Club for the interest manifested by them in this line of education. He also stated that he hoped to see a course in manual training established. That he expected the schools to now move for- ward, that the public had a right, with the facilities we now have, to insist on a forward movement. He appealed to the good people of the town, especially the Woman's Club, to help along this purpose. Many elements and agencies should be brought into this movement. A course of lectures or talks by such men as Gen- eral Beaver and Judge Orvis, and pro- fessors of State College, on travel, civics, literature and scientific subjects. And that for educational purposes, on what- ever line or form, the High school room shouid always be open. In conclusion he urged the need of keeping before the children high ideals and the teaching of sound morals. As an illustration he referred to a little monu- ment standing in a small park in the bor- ough of Wellsboro, erected to the memo- ry of John Magee, on which there was this inscription in which the story of a useful and honored life may be told : "His energy and diligence compelled success, “His ability and integrity won public confidence.” “His kindness and liberality drew to him the affectionate regard of the rich and thepoor.” What a story with which to urgeon the young to a higher and a better life. Mr. Fortney's address throughout was prac- tical. The evening exercise opened by the “Ladies and Gentlemen's Glee club” sing- ing the “Bridal Chorus” from “Rose Maid- en." Splendid it was and of course called forth an encore. The main address of the evening was by Dr. David Sned- din, commissioner of education of Massa- chusetts. The substance of the address may be summed up as follows : “In vocational education, the choice of materials and methods is primarily deter- mined by the necessities of some of the numerous callings, or groups of related callings, into which the workers of the world have divided themselves. That vo- cational education is specialized to the preparation of lawyers, physicians and teachers, which we call professional; that which is designed to train the book-keep- er, clerk, stenographer, or commercial traveler, including business leadership, we call commercial; that which is organized with reference to the bricklayer, the ma- chinist, the shoemaker, the metal-worker, the factory hand and higher manufactur- ing pursuits, we call industrial education; that which conveys skill and knowledge looking to the tillage of the soil and man- agement of domestic animals, we call agricultural, and that which teaches the girl dressmaking, cooking and manage- ment of the home, we call education in the household arts.” This statement of vocational education ; got there it was to find a somewhat cha- was elaborated in a most able and inter- esting address extending over an hour. The effect of his address on iil 1.07 train for her Pittsburg home. { Breese. at ge x : — — mind has caused much favorable comment and will doubtless produce good results. Judge Ellis L. Orvis and Hon. J. C. Meyer concluded the speech making. The Judge continued the lineof argument for industrial education in a brief but forceful speech. Mr. Meyer congratulated every- body on the completion of so substantial Suffice it to say that all that there has | and commodious a school building. The violin solo “Scenede Ballet,” Miss Dorothy Bible, was a great treat. It was a feature in a program that was afternoon Dietrick’s orchestra very ac- | ceptably rendered several pieces of choice music. The audience both afternoon and i evening was large, enthusiastic and at. tentive. Among those present were B. i L Meyers, superintendent of the Philips- | burg schools; Capt. C. T. Fryberger, retary; Frank Weber, treasurer, and Geo. F. Troutman, all members of the Philips- burg borough school board, who were present during the afternoon; and Prof. Fleck, superintendent of the Tyrone schools, and John D. Meyer formerly | supervising principal of the Bellefonte schools, both of whom were present dur- ing the afternoon and evening. coo ——We have catered to every taste in our line of coats and suits.—Aiken's. ——Mr. and Mrs. John C. Rowe had as their guests from Friday until Sunday Mrs. Rowe's brother, James F. Armstrong and bride. The latter was Miss Eva M.

Mr. Armstrong's home is in Philipsburg though he is employed as a civil engineer on the Pennsylvania rail- road. co on. QA rem——— ——One of the proudest boys in Belle- fonte just now is George Young, son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Young. He is one of the Bellefonte boys who sell the Satur- day Evening Post, and he has already re- ceived two premiums for the number of Posts sold in addition to his regular com- mission. When he sold 250 copies he was given a watch and fob and two weeks ago his number having reached 800 he was awarded a rubber coat. Now he is striv- ing for the 1,500 mark when he is prom- ised a pair of rubber hip boots. ——On Friday afternoon George A: Beezer and H. S. Ray went to Pittsburg where the former purchased a six cylinder Mitchell car. They left the Smoky city Sunday morning and drove as far as Johnstown when it began to rain. Mr. Ray came home by train the same even- ing while Mr. Beezer remained in the Flood city over night, driving the car to Bellefonte on Monday. It is a car de- signed for four passengers, high powered and as it is strongly built ought to stand up well on Centre county roads. ——Powe!l & Cohan’s musical play “The Yankee Doodle Boy,” is making its sec- ond triumphal tour of the country and will be seen at Garman’s, Saturday, Sep- tember 24th. Last season this attraction carried away the honors in the laughing and musical world and left behind it a trail of good humor and good will. Bright and clean as a new coin from the mint, “The Yankee Doodle Boy” affords de. lightful recreation for old and young. It is performed in an atmosphere of laugh- ter, but occasionally a tear springs to the eye—forced there by some sweetly pathe- tic scene. Bothmatinee and evening per- formance. ——The Bellefonte Academy opened last week and it is gratifying to note that the annual school year starts out under very auspicious circumstances. The out- of-town or boarding students this year number close to seventy, the largest num- ber ever in attendance, and they are a very intelligent, gentlemanly looking lot of young men. There is also a good at- tendance in the primary department and also in the advanced grades by resident students. The Academy faculty this year has been increased and affords one of the best all around corps of instructors to be found in any preparatory school in the State. All in all the Bellefonte Academy is an educational institution of which the people of Bellefonte and Centre county have good reason to feel proud. ——Monday morning Mrs. D. J. Meyer, of Centre Hall ; Mrs. C. H. Meyer, of Reedsville, and Mrs. C. D. Runkle, of Pittsburg, the latter two having been over at Centre Hall to attend the funeral of. the late Mrs. Boal, came to Bellefonte on the Lewisburg and Tyrone train, Mrs. Runkle immediately transferring to the train west on the Bald Eagle valley road on her journey home. When the con- ductor made his rounds she was dumb- founded to find that in some way her handbag had gotten exchanged and she was without ticket, money, or anything else. She told her story to the conductor who took her to Milesburg then sent her back to Bellefonte on the train east. In the meantime Mrs. D. J. Meyer had gone out to the home of Mrs. C. M. Bower and when she opened her handbag she dis- covered that it was not hers at all but Mrs. Runkle’s, in which was ticket, purse, etc. It is hard to tell which one of the ladies had the worst case of “nerves.” Mrs. Meyer hurried down to the depot to see what could be done and when she grined and thoroughly disappointed wom- an in the person of Mrs. Runkle sitting in the waiting room. Explanations fol- ————————— iz lowed and the latter woman left on the been very marked. It has ARE YOU FOR A GREAT ANNUAL GATH- | ERING.—Week after next the Great Cen- the closing of the season for out-of-door events in Centre county. We will not consume our time nor weary you with a rehash of the features that will be offer- | ed for your amusement and edification. tober 4th. The thought that comes to our mind enough. Have you ever stopped to think to bring people of every walk and of every part of the county together annu- ally. The old time political levees are a thing of the past. The daily and weekly | : | sec- | newspapers now carry the issues to the | | Sfeside whereas forty vous aa die men | Payne, a student at State College, were Sunday | of the county thought nothing of riding | Suests of Dr. and Mrs. J. E. Ward and family. or driving twenty-five miles, in any kind of weather, to hear a discussion or pre- sentation of the issues of state. It was their only means, then, of finding out. Railroads have put grain elevators, coal ; yards and relatively good stores in near- ly every village. Telephones transmit the market price of the products of the farm any minute of the day or night to the remotest quarter. Even the old time Sunday visiting in the country districts | has been materially lessened since tele- phones make it possible to converse with a relative or neighbor who has moved into another township to make his home. Circrses no longer attract the great crowds to the county seat that they once did, because it is too small for the great tented shows of today and the smaller ones carry so few new features that they do not attract outside of a radius of ten miles. To sum it all up progress has been so rapid in recent years that the is- olated country resident is as much in! touch with the outside world today as the townspeople and there is really noth- ing left to call him from his prosperous, happy home unless it be a duty of some sort. There is a duty and that is the very point we want to raise. There is not a resident in Centre county who should lose touch with his county seat. We are not writing for the Bellefonte merchants, because they should speak for themselves and some of them are doing it very much to your advantage. We are writing to urge upon the people of Centre county the necessity of keeping in touch with the seat of their local government, the advantage of keeping in touch with each other. The value of knowing what the other fellow is doing on his farm or in his shop is inestimable to you; especially if you can find out how he is doing it and adapt it to your own needs. The value of personally coming in contact with people of other walks of life than | your own may not impress itself on you consciously, but unconsciously it has a subtle effect that is broadening and up- lifting. No man is sufficient unto him- self and for that reason it is every man’s duty and it must be his pleasure to occa- sionally go abroad in contact with his fellows. Believing these things to be true; what better opportunity, what better place for such an annual gathering than at a Fair, the very inception of which was for the purpose of education, at the seat of the government of which you are a unit. The Fair is the one remaining induce- ment for such a county gathering and it is up to you to decide whether it will re- main. It is not a money making venture, but it must pay its way if it is to endure. The ascendency of agriculture has awak- ened a new interest, a proper conception of what a Fair is for and does in nearly every part of the country. Allentown, York, Bloomsburg, Indiana, Mansfield, have fairs that are really wonderful. Oth- er counties with far less interests than Centre have much more creditable gath- erings because their people seem to have come to the understanding that such an event is worth while. Let us hope that Centre county rouses herself before this last opportunity is abandoned as a fail- ure. It will be exactly what you make it and we feel absolutely certain that should it be allowed to fail it will be only a mat- ter of a few years until you realize that it's loss is more a matter of regret to you than to those who have been promoting it. ——Full line of Wooltex coats and suits on display at Aiken's. VANDALS IN THE CEMETERY.—Lately it has come to public attention that persons are despoiling the graves of the dead in the Union cemetery in this place. Acts of greater profanity than this are scarce- ly comprehensible. In fact one cannot understand into what condition of de- pravity a human being has fallen who would go into the cemetery and steal flowers from the graves of those who are resting there, yet it has been so frequent that the friends of those whose graves have thus been outraged have decided to put an end to it if possible. A court of justice would scarcely show any mercy to the guilty wretches and they will be before the bar before they are aware of it if the practice isnot stop- ped at once. —Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Baker, of Watsontown, are the happy parents of a fine baby boy, which was born in the Williamsport hospita! a few days ago.
