car was for L J. Dreese, of Lemont, who
came to Bellefonte on Wednesday and
drove the car home. The other two cars
are Flanders runabouts, 1912 model, with
underslung chassis and fully equipped.
One of these was for Dr. S. M. Nissley,
the veterinary surgeon, while Mr. Beezer
has several prospective purchasers for

favorably throughout the country dis-
tricts. There has been more or less im-
pression in Bellefonte that the proposed

nish light, heat and power, and the latter

{ uncertainty in the project being put
| through, and that work on the same

as the weather will permit; and before
the close of the year the company ex-
pects to be in a position to deal out elec-
tricity to all those desiring it.

: ceived sufficient encouragement to justify

Gregg Post rooms in the Harris block on
Saturday evening, February 24th, when
an organization will be made. All sons
of veterans of the Civil war, Spanish-
American war or any other war, as well

organization of the past and the Sons of
Veterans are expected to ina measure
take the place of the old soldiers in keep-
! ing alive the spirit of patriotism and tak-
! ing the lead in the solemn and impressive
| ceremonies on each annual Memorial

there is no reason why Bellefonte cannot
! have one.

——On Wednesday and Thursday even-
ings of next week the people of Belle-
fonte will have an opportunity to com- |
pare the every day picture show with Ed-
ward J. Hadley’s standard exhibition of
travel pictures. Mr. Hadley is well
known in Bellefonte, having shown his
pictures here on various occasions in the
past but he has not been here in several
vears. His exhibition this year covers a |
wide scope of country and are not only |
interesting but educational.
——On Tuesday John S. Walker, ac-
companied by Dr. John Sebring and H. S.
Ray, took his big Franklin car to Wil-
liamsport where he will have it thor-
oughly gone over at the Keeler establish-
ment. The machinery will not only be
thoroughly overhauled but the machine
will also be repainted and when it comes
out of the shop will look and be as good
men to use their influence towards hav.
ing them do so.
The discussion of the resolution was
loon league and this fact was objectiona-
ble to one or more of those present. The
latter believed that more could be gained
by exerting the influence of the Minis-
terium and keeping the Anti-Saloon
league in the back ground. However,
that is a question pertinent only with the
| ministers themselves. The real thing |
that concerns the public and prospective
candidates is that if they want the sup-
port of the ministers they will have to|;,
publicly avow that they are in favor of
prohibition. How many will do it re-
mains to be seen.

called the writer's attention several days

are scores and scores of people who fully
believe that the seeing of his shadow or
not by his hog-ship is a sure prognostica-
tion of the weather for the ensuing six
weeks. But whether he sees his shadow
or not there is consolation in the fact
that we cannot have any more wintry
weather in the future than we have had
in the past. Winter weather is all right
in winter time and we would prefer it to
soft, sloppy weather, but preserve us
from the thirty-degrees below zero kind.
——By a general order issued Febru-
ary first the office of general freight
agent of the Central Railroad of Pennsyl-
vania has been abolished, and in the fu-
ture the duties of that office will be as-
sumed by the president and general man-
ager, Wallace H. Gephart. The same or-
der appoints Mr. M. L. Altenderfer gen-
eral tariff agent, reporting to the presi-
dent. These changes have been made
following the death of Frank Warfield,
who filled the position of general freight
agent with the company ever since the
road was built.
~The first collection of old papers
for the car load to be shipped in April,
will be made during the coming week
and every one is asked to have them tied
in bundles ready for the wagons, which
have been so kindly donated for that pur-
pose. The room adjoining Miss Snyder's
on Bishop street having been secured for
the storing of the paper, we would svg-
gest that the people of that locality carry
their paper there, in order to lighten the
work of those collecting. ' Any donations
to this from the county will be most
graciously accepted.

——Ex-Prothonotary Arthur B. Kim.
port two weeks ago purchased the Bar-
tholomew property near the railroad sta-
tion at Centre Hall for thre: thousand
dollars. The property includes about one
acre of ground upon which are a large
store room and dwelling and a barn big
enough for a farm barn. The store and
dwelling are now occupied by register
J. Frank Smith, but his store is now for
sale and he will vacate the dwelling
has had almost one month of good sleigh-
ing and the number of parties who went
out for an evening can be counted on the
fingers of one hand. True, there was one
week of very cold weather but twenty
and thirty years ago the youngsters scof-
fed at the weather when a sledding party
was in view. There are many people of
course who do not have automobiles but
for some reason they prefer paying for
that means of transportation. They may
net be quite as comfortable but one is
taken to his destination in much less
time; then there is an exhilerating mo-
tion to an automobile that cannot be felt
in a bob-sled or any other vehicle. So
that verily it does look as if the good old
days of the sleighing party are to be
numbered among the things past and
gone.

——William Burnside is just at present
one of the most satisfied men in Centre
county and all because he has been given
positive assurance that the chestnut tree
blight has not struck that fine grove of
chestnut trees he owns on Muncy moun-
tain. When Mr. Burnside learned that
one or more cases of the blight had been
discovered up in that section he became
somewhat worried but also got busy. He
got into communication with W. G.
Knapper, who has been in this county
this winter in an effort to locate the dis-
ease and eradicate it, if any cases are
found, and that gentleman made a
thorough examination of the Burnside
tract and failed to find one affected tree.
And this is the reason Mr. Burnside is
now happy and satisfied.
