New Courses TO BE ESTABLISHED IN BELLEFONTE HIGH SCHOOL—Ata meeting | of the Bellefonte school board on Mon- day evening it was decided to establish | four new courses for the next school | year. These will be a commercial course, , which will include stenography, type- | writing and general business methods. A course in manual training; a course in agriculture in which the most modern | methods of farming will be taught, though ! at present there will be no actual dem- | onstrations owing to the lack of experi- ' mental grounds; and in connection with the domestic science course a course in | household chemistry, by which the girls | will be taught how to analyze water, ; milk, foodstuffs, etc. Regarding the | commercial course it will be one of the compulsory studies of the High school curriculdm, as every student will be obliged to take at least one year of it. Manual training is a department that has | been advocated for a number of years | but never established because of the lack of room. The agricultural course is ‘one that is strongly advocated by the i new school code, while the girl's house- | hold chemistry course is also considered | a valuable one. | Monday night was.also the night for | the election of teachers for the ensuing | year and all the old staff of teachers | were elected with the exception of prin- | cipal Irvin O. Noli, who was not an ap- plicant, as he has a good offer to become { principal of a school in the eastern part | of the State. Earle C. Musser was elect- | ed principal in place of Mr. Noll, at the | same salary the latter received last year, In addition to his duties as principal Mr. | Musser will .continue to teach history. | Mr. Musser's promotion and the estab- lishment of new courses leaves two posi- tions in the High school faculty to be filled. They are commercial and mathe- matical instructors. There are a num- ber of applicants, each one of whom will be given due consideration before a se- lection is made by the board. As a mat- ter of interest and also as evidence that school teachers are not scarce in Centre county it can be stated that the school board had close to ninety applications from young men and women who want to teach in the Bellefonte schools, The only increase in salary was that of five dollars a month for Mr. Hinman. The board also passed a resolution in effect that every teacher in the Bellefonte schools must take a six weeks summer course at some college or advanced in- stitution of learning in the branches in which they teach, or general school work, and superintendent Jonas E. Wagner has already decided on a six week's term at Columbia University, New York. The board also decided to open the fall term of school on Monday, September 9th, and already the promotions and ap- plications for admission to the High school aggregate 240 students. This will be a large increase over last year’s en- rollment and will already crowd the new building. However some of the lower rooms that were not used last year wil) be utilized the coming year in caring for the increased student body and the es- tablishment of the new courses. MEMORIAL DAY AT CENTRE HALL—One of the most elaborate Memorial day serv- ices in the history of Centre Hall were those of last week. The patriotic spirit was displayed on every hand. The ad- dress delivered by Rev. R. Raymond Jones, of the Reformed church, was a scholary production. The noted Coleviile band furnished a number of their finest selections to the admiration of all present. While many families are under quarantine on account of measles the band, under the direction of Philip H. Meyer, visited all “Shut-ins” and gave them a musical treat, which was greatly appreciated by all. The day was one that will be kept in memory many years. The vocal se- lections were of a very appropriate char- acter and rendered by Mrs. J. H. Puff, Miss Helen Bartholomew, Mrs. L. L. Moore, Mrs. S. S. Kreamer, W. H. Bar- tholomew, Dr. I. V. Foster, Wm. Boozer and Philip H. Meyer. SILVER AVENUE.—Our greatly esteem- ed friend, Mr. James Wolfenden, of Lamar, just over the line in Clinton county, has been adding greatly to the comforts, conveniences and beauty of his very pretty residence the past month. He has sent us a photo of the improvements made thereon, and while he has always had one of the prettiest and most home- like residences in the Nittany valiey, we doubt if there is now a brighter looking, more convenient or attractive place in all of Clinton county than “Silver Avenue.” What Mr. Wolfenden does he always does well and we congratulate him, not only on the beauty of his home, its many con- veniences and comforts, but on the good judgment that induced him many years ago to locate in so healthful, and pretty a spot as he now can proudly point to as his home. Others may well envy, but there is ample room and opportunity for them all to emulate his example. AM ve esmme— HAZEL—SCHAEFFER REUNION-The tenth annual reunion of the Hazel—Schaeffer families will be held on Wednesday, June 19th, at Madisonburg. A most interest ing program has been arranged for the affair and it is expected to be one of the largest events of the kind that will be Siliegsod His your. There is no ques- as to the that the opportunity for a most enjoyable day will be afforded everyone who attends, Another big feature film will be exhibited at the Scenic in the near fu. ture. Watch for it. ——Among the graduates at the Dana’ STATE Taxes Over RoADs.— Dating Musical Institute, at Warren, Ohio, at the | from midnight last Friday night the State annual commencement on June 11th, will | took over eight thousand miles of public be Miss Marie C.

Gamble Rice drove the team and some time dur- ing the evening one of the horses had an attack of colic, which delayed their re- turn several hours, so that it was three o'clock Saturday morning before they ar- | rived home, a thoroughly tired out and sleepy bunch. ————— GI] + ot —— —In our report of the High school commencement last week, in announcing the prize winners, we stated that Dorothy K. Jenkins was awarded the Dr. and Mrs. Thomas R. Hayes “special merit” prize. This was a mistake as Miss Jenkins was awarded the prize because she had a grade of ninety or better, and this prize is open to every student who makes such a grade, be thereone or a dozen. It is given especially as an incentive to hard study and good records. ——When the evenings are hot and oppressive and you feel out of sorts with yourself and the world in general try the Scenic. The big suction fan keeps the atmosphere in the room pure and com- fortable and the pictures will make you forget all your ills and worries. Three thousand feet of film, a full hour's en- tertainment every evening, is what you get for a nickle. Can you buy that much pleasure and good entertainment any- where else for the same amount of mon- ey? Try it once and see. —Last Saturday P. L. Bratton, a Bradford traveling man, went to Philips- burg and decided to remain there over Sunday. He spent Saturday night in a house on Pine street and some time dur- ing the night, while he was asleep, his pockets were picked to the extent of $160. The next morning Delroy Casker, aged nineteen years, and Bruce Nelson, aged sixteen, were arrested and accused of the theft. They confessed and return- ed $100 of the money, without account- ing for the other $60. The young men were held under $300 bail each for trial at the next term of court. —— A em. ——Three weeks ago Miss Belle Weaver, stenographer in the office of Gettig,Bower & Zerby, went to Harrisburg to visit rel- atives and last week she spent in the home of her niece,Mrs. Emory Wolf, who prior to her marriage was Miss Mary Weaver, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Weaver. Mr. Wolf is employed on the Mt. Pleasant Press but for several days during the latter part of the week he remained at home because he was not feeling well. On Saturday he grew worse and a physician was summoned who at once diagnosed his ailment as a case of smallpox. The man was at once remov- ed to the sanitary hospital and the Wolf home, including Miss Weaver, quarantined. ———————— ——Last Thursday J. W. Stewart, of Philadelphia, who is here looking up the various water supplies throughout Centre county as well as the sewerage cf the different towns for the State Board of Health, drove to State College with a livery rig secured at Thomspon’s livery stable. Returning home he had just pass- ed through Lemont when the horse made a plunge and threw the buggy into a pass- ing vehicle, locking the wheels. Mr. Stewart was thrown out and received several cuts on his hands and one leg and 2 number of bad bruises, but fortu- nately sustained no broken bones. The plunging horse tore the shafts loose from the buggy and ran up the road a half mile or so where the shafts caught in a wire fence and the animal was caught by a passerby. Mr. Stewart at once notified Mr. Thompson as to what had occurred and then came home by train. The horse and broken buggy were brought home the same night, the only injury the horse sustained being a slight scratch. Ac- cording to report the animal has a habit of running off without any f i a fact Mr. Stewart did not know. sufficient men to do the work. The improved highways will be patrolled by men who will have stretches of from one to three miles of road to maintain. This position will be a good deal like the “white wing” job in the cities. The care. taker will be supplied with crushed stone and liquid asphalt. When a hole is found in the highway it will be his duty to make the necessary repairs. He will also have to keep the weeds cut down along the roadside and see that the culverts are kept open and in repair. The thousands of miles of dirt roads embraced in the state highways are to be kept in condition at the expense of the State. The superintendent of the dis- trict will be supplied with drags, scrapers and the necessary machinery to make these highways as smooth and durable as possible. The gutters are to be kept cleaned and the weeds and grass of the roadside are to be cut. Loose stone will not be allowed to collect in the roadways. It means that for a good portion of the year these thoroughfares are to be main- tained in much better condition than they are at present because the gangs will give their constant attention to the work, and the man who fails to make good will not last long under Commis- sioner Bigelow and Chief Engineer Sam- uel D. Foster. The work in Centre county will be under the direction of engineer J. T. Gep- hart, of Clearfield, and the direct super- vision of superintendent W. D. Myer, of Bellefonte. To enable the engineers to cover their districts with dispatch the State Highway Department has furnished each one a new 1912 Cadillac car. ————— WORK ON NITTANY VALLEY ROAD TO BE STARTED AT ONCE.—~Work on remod- eling the Nittany valley road from Belle- fonte to Cedar Springs will be started this week by the State Highway Depart- ment. On Wednesday morning the con- tract for all the crushed limestone which will be used on the job was awarded to the Chemical Lime and Stone company and the Whiterock Quarries, the latter only bidding on for from three to four miles at this end of the road. The esti- mate is for one thousand tons of stone to the mile ot road, which will mean 19,500 tons all told. The first shipment of stone was made from both plants on Wednes- day afternoon. The work will be started at the borough line, connecting with the State highway, and built from this end down the valley. A force of fifty men will be put to work, enough of them practical road builders to assure the job being properly done, and the balance of the crew will be engaged here. It is es- timated that three thousand feet of road can be built in a week, at which rate it will take all summer to do the work. It is possible, however, that the above force of men may be increased later so as to complete the job before cold weather in the fall. A steam roller for the work arrived here on Wednesday and is now standing at the borough line on Bishop street. BIG SUMMER SCHOOL FOR TEACHERS AT systems | STATE COLLEGE.—The summer school for teachers will open at State College on Monday, June 24th, and the present out- iook is for a very large attendance. Al- ready there are in the neighborhood of six hundred teachers entered for the six weeks course and this number is likely to be considerably increased, so that it would not be surprising if from seven to eight hundred teachers spent the mid- summer there. In fact the number al- ready is solarge that some of the teachers have applied to the different fraternities for the use of their houses and these will be turned over to them when they arrive at the College. a —— NEWS PURELY PERSONAL. =Mr. and Mrs. Frank Woomer spent last week in Williamsport, where the former's father, John Woomer, is quite ill. =Mrs. William Bell left Bellefonte Sunday of last week with her son, D .
