Wilson's Attitude Toward Smith.
Governor WILSON might easily have
closed his eyes to the spectacle represent-
ed to the country in the candidacy of
JAMES SMITH Jr., for the office of Senator
in Congress. The election of Mr. SMITH
would be a long step backward, but the
Governor might have plausibly pleaded
that as a candidate for President it would
be safer for him to remain quiet and let
things take their course. No doubt Mr.
SMITH would have greatly appreciated
such an attitude upon the part of the
Governor. But Wooprow WILSON isn't
built that way. He is under moral obli-
gations to champion the cause of the peo.
ple against political machines and the
fact that the SMITH machine carries a
Democratic label makes no difference.
JAMES SMITH Jr., was a Senator in Con-
gress when the WILSON tariff bill was
under consideration and injected into
that measure such provisions in the in-
terest of monopoly that GROVER CLEVE"
LAND was compelled to withhold his ap-
proval from it. President CLEVELAND
permitted it to become a law, it is true,
for the reason that bad as it was in some
respects it was better than the law in
force at the time of its passage. But for
SMITH and a few others, however, a real
tariff reform would have been enacted
Woodrow Wilson Club Or-
ganized.
The Presidential Boom Launched at An
Enthusiastic Meeting Monday Even-
ing.
At an enthusiastic meeting held in the
grand jury room at the court house Mon-
day evening, the Woodrow Wilson club
of Centre county was organized and the
first gun fired in the presidential cam-
paign in this county. The meeting was
+ | called to order by county chairman A. B.
Kimport, and on motion Hammon Sech-
ler was elected temporary chairman and
W. D. Zerby temporary secretary. The
following names were subscribed to the
roll of membership, all of whom were
present except Amos Garbrick and David
Foreman:
D. Paul Fortney, A. B. Kimport, Amos Gar.
brick, Arthur B. Lee, M. I. Gardner, David R.
Foreman, J. Frank Smith, W. Francis Speers
Earle S. Orr, W. D. Zerby, J. D. Miller, H. N.
Meyer, D. F. Fortney, Hammon Sechler, J. M.
Keichline, W. C. Heinle, H. S. Taylor, Edward
Brown, W. C. Rowe, Maurice Yeager, Sidney
Krumrine, P. H. Gherrity, J. Mac Heinle, N. B.
Spangler, S. Kline Whodring. Ellis S. Shaffer,
Charles{R. Kurtz, John McSuley and J. Kennedy
Johnston.
A permanent organization was com-
pleted by the election of the following of-
ficers: President, D. Paul Fortney; vice
president, P. H. Gherrity; secretary, W.
D. Zerby; treasurer, Hammon Sechler
On motion of S. Kline Woodring the con-
stitution as approved by the Woodrow
Wilson jLeague of Pennsylvania was
adopted.
The following gentlemen were named
as an executive committee: M. I. Gard-
ner, H. S. Taylor, Maurice Yeager, H. N.
Meyer and J. Frank Smith. A finance
committee was also selected as follows:
Hammon Sechler, chairman; Sidney
Krumrine and J. D. Miller.
Another meeting was to have been held
on Wednesday evening to hear the re-
ports of the committees and decide on
the selection of permanent quarters, etc.,
but owing to the fact that a number of
members went to Williamsport to attend
the convention of the State Federation of
Democratic clubs no meeting was held.
While the Woodrow Wilson club of
Bellefonte has been organized by Demo-
crats, naturally, it is not the purpose to
make it distinctly a Democratic organi-
zation. Every voter in Bellefonte and
Centre county who believes in good gov-
ernment, is in favor of the principles
enunciated in the platform adopted at
the Baltimore convention, and more es-
pecially in favor of Woodrow Wilson for
President and Thomas R. Marshall for
Vice President, are urged to join. Their
past political preference will be no bar to
their membership,
The cause espoused by Wilson and
Marshall has to do with the reduction of
tariff on the real necessaries of life, the
lessening of the expenses of conducting
our national government, and everything
that the common people advocate and
for that reason the people atlarge should
rally to their support. One way to do
this is to join the Woodrow Wilson club
and boom his cause. There is no mem-
bership fee. All the expenses will be
met by voluntary contributions looked
after by the finance committee, so that
the lack of money need keep no one from
becoming a member.

PoNTiUs.—~After an illness that extend-
ed over a period of two years or more,
duringwwhich time he suffered one or two
strokes of paralysis, Harry B. Pontius
died at his home on Curtin street on
Tuesday evening.
Deceased was born at Laurelton, Union
county, on January 14th, 1840, hence was
aged 72 years, 8 months and 6 days. He
was educated atthe Aaronsburg academy
and the Jacksonville seminary and when
the Civil war broke out he enlisted in
Company E, 142nd regiment in August,
1862, and served until the close of the
war, making a splendid record as a sol-
dier. He came to Bellefonte in 1867, and
being an expert book-keeper, worked for
various firms in that capacity, For a
number of years prior to his illness he was
engaged in selling nursery stock. He was
a Republican in politics and for twelve
years was one of the county auditors and
was also a borough auditor for a number
of years. He was a member of the Belle-
fonte Lodge No. 153, I. O. O. F., for forty
four years and was secretary of the orga-
nization for many years. He was also a
member of Gregg Post No. 95, G. A. R,,
and for a number of years the post quar-
ter master. He was a member of the Re-
formed church since early manhood and
a man who had the respect and esteem of
all who knew him.
Before coming to Bellefonte he was
united in marriage to Miss Anna E. Al’
bert, of Lewisburg, who survives with one
daughter, Miss Jennie. Dr. Ambrose M.
Schmidt will officiate at the funeral which
will be held at ten o'clock this (Friday)
morning, burial to be made in the Union
cemetery.

HOUSEMAN.—'Squire John S. House:
man, a well-known resident of Potter |
township, died at his home near Colyer |
on Tuesday morning. He had been ail
ing all summer, but his condition had not |
been considered serious until he was
stricken with paralysis a short time be- |
fore his death. Deceased was born in
Pennsvalley and was 67 years, 5 months |
and 9 days old. He was a farmer by oc-
cupation most all his life and a progres-
sive, up-to-date citizen. For fifteen years
or longer he served as justice of the peace
of Potter township. He was a man of
considerable intellectual ability and his
career as a justice was untarnished. He
was a member of the Evangelical church
and an exemplary, christian gentleman.
He is survived by his wife, who prior to
her marriage was Miss Susan Royer, and
one daughter, Mrs. Thomas Hosterman,
of Centre Hill. The funeral was held yes-
terday morning, burial being made in the
Evangelical cemetery at Colyer.

HEVERLEY. — Leo Heverley, the bright
little son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Hever-
ley, died in the Bellefonte hospital about
three o'clock last Thursday afternoon.
He was taken sick the night previous
with appendicitis and that morning taken
to the hospital for an operation but the
disease had made such rapid headway
that the physicians pronounced the case
hopeless at the time the operation was
performed. He was between three and

He is the only voter in the Twenty-
first Congressional district among the Re-
publicans and Bull Moosers who stands in
a position so weak and contemptible that
he dare not publicly and in the presence
of voters, voice his sentiments, his con-
victions as either being against or for
Taft or Teddy. He wants the red cor-
puscled voters of this district to select
him as their representative in Congress
in face of a mediocre record at Wash-
ington and upon a declaration of neu-
trality upon burning issues of the hour
that are splitting the Republican party
from stem to stern. But, anyway, there
is no neutrality in this fight. Neutrality
as between Taft and Teddy is a two-
edged sword that cuts away the support
of both the real Taftites and the sincere
Bull Moosers.
ONE WHO ADMIRES MANLINESS,
happy nuptials.
Following the ceremony a reception
was held at the home of the bride's par-
ents on Howard street, where the deco-
rations of golden rod and chrysanthe-
mums were most lavish, the work of in-
timate friends and neighbors, and a wed-
ding breakfast served to about forty guests
and later Mr. and Mrs. Broderic were
driven te Milesburg in an automobile
leaving on the 1.25 train for a brief
wedding trip to eastern cities.
The bride is the only daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Thaddeus R. Hamilton, of east
Howard street, and is a pleasing and ac
complished young lady. Her gifts, which
were many, included silver, glass, china,
and mahogony. Mr. Broderic during the
engineering department at The Pennsyl-
vania State College and it is at that place
the couple will make their home. The
WATCHMAN extends to Mr. and Mrs.
Broderic sincerest congratulations and
Work of the Woman’s Club.
The sewing school, the direct outcome
of the efforts of the Woman's Club, has
come to stay. The board of school di-
rectors and the superintendent of the
schools, recognizing the merits, gave
their hearty co-operation and furnished
tables, chairs and a sewing machine to
further the work.
Those fortunate people who, at the
close of the schools last May, visited the
exhibit of 500 pieces made by the chil
dren, were greatly surprised to see the
progress of one year. The parents and
friends owe a special expression of ap-
preciation to Mrs. John Porter Lyon,
chairman of the educational department
of the Woman's Club; to Miss Ida
Green, for her successful instruction and
to the faithful teachers, all of whom
cheerfully gave their time, interest and
attention to this splendid work. The
hour spent in sewing Monday afternoon
was not the only time given to the girls
as one instance will suffice to show. A
music teacher told the chairman that
after the sewing school was organized she
always found her pupils busily engaged
in sewing while awaiting the arrival of
the teacher.
The following course in sewing in the
public schools for 1912-’13 will show the
scope of work to be covered:
Grade 5.—Ability to thread needle.
Habitual use of thimble and energy, and

HUMMELL—WILLIAMS.—A wedding an-
nouncement that came as quite a sur-
prise to the people of Bellefonte was that
of Miss Lucretia G. Williams, youngest
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Wil
liams, of this place, and V. Lorne Hum-
mell, of Harrisburg, which took place at
ment of the engagement of Mr. Hum-
mell and Miss Williams had been made
recently and the wedding was to have
taken place in October. Miss Williams
went to Harrisburg last week to visit rel-
atives and Mr. Hummell having a busi-
ness trip to Niagara Falls Miss Williams
consented to accompany him and be mar-
ried there.
The bride is quite well known in Belle-
fonte and is popular among the younger
set. Mr. Hummell is a former student
of the Bellefonte Academy, after which
he took a year in the University of Penn-
sylvania and is now in business in Har.
risburg where the young couple will re-
side.
McGOWAN—LOSE.—A quiet little wed-
ding took place at the Catholic parson-
age, at 7.30 o'clock on Wednesday even-

by Rev. Father McArdle. Miss Eliza-
EDITOR DEMOCRATIC WATCHMAN : —
I am asked “What do you think about
; | hiring singers and paying them money
for the services of song in the house of
the Lord ?”
Such questions I always bring for final
appeal to the Holy Scriptures.” What
saith the Scriptures ?
I find no case on record in the Bible
where men-singers or women-singers re-
ceived any monetary compensation for
doing song service in the public worship
of God.
The Scriptures, in my view of them,
plainly teach that the exercise of praising
the Lord should be a heartfelt, joyous ex-
pression of gratitude to the One
“From Whom all blessings flow"
The Levites were specially appointed
“To stand every morning to thank and
praise the Lord, and likewise at even.”
1 Chron. 23:30, For this service they re-
ceived a support sufficient for a needed
livelihood without wages or salary.
Coming to the New Testament, under
the christian dispensation, this subject is
placed on the clearest light.
See 1 Cor. 14:26; Eph. 5:9; Col. 3:16; 1 Thess,
5:11; James 5:12.
In these sacred oracles there will be
found no reference to a paid service in
the public worship of the Lord. In a
long lifetime I have witnessed what I pre-
fer not to express particulary publicly in
the case of too many who were paid for
their part in divine worship, with no ap-
parent uplift or spiritual benefit flowing
from such a course in the conduct of re-
ligi i M EF
Tre CoMeT.—In going through some
old papers recently postmaster Harry
Valegtine found a copy of The Comet, a
little four page paper that made its de-
but in Bellefonte on June 13th, 1857. It
was published monthly by Levi D. Read
and James B. Cook and the object seems
to have been merely to give its publishers
a vehicle through which to work off their
surplus facetiousness.
It was probably called The Comet be-
cause that was the year in which one of
those flying, fiery orbs illumined the skies
every night and struck terror to the tim.
id heart lest its course might meet up
with that of old Mother Earth, with dis-
astrous results to the latter.
Just to give you an idea of what was
regarded as funny stuff for a newspaper
in those days we refer to one of its sto-
ries about a young couple who had just
been married in Bellefonte. The groom
was rather egotistical and self important
and spoke continually of everything about
the new home as “my” this and “my”
that, The bride rather resented this con-
stant reference to everything as his only
and suggested that he speak of their pos-
sessions as “ours.” An altercation en-
sued in which the bride showed how han-
dy she was with the poker, with the re-
sult that the groom was beaten into such
a condition of humility that on the fol-
lowing Sunday morning he ventured to
ask his wife if “we might wear our clean
linen breeches to church this morning.”
Hoop-skirts were in vogue then. The
Comet called them circumbendibus insti-
tutions and had much to say about them,
as well as tight breeches, because they
both impeded locomotion. What the
Comet editors would have had to say
about the twenty-two inch hobble skirt
ot today can only be conjectured.
About the only reference to anything
of a local nature we find in the old paper
is mention of the fact that excavation
was being made in front of the court
house with a view to surrounding the
yard with an iron fence. That fence is
probably the one that is now enclosing
the Big Spring. It also commented most
unfavorably on the architecture of a
house that Samuel Linn Esq. was then
having erected “near the turnpike lead-
ing from this place to Milesburg.” Asa
matter of fact it was the first house on
Linn street and stood on the western half
of the grounds that now surround the
home of Col. W. F. Reynolds. It was
later the Milliken home and was torn
down when the Reynolds home was built.
beth McGowan, a sister of the bride-
groom, officiated as bridesmaid and
Arthur Beezer acted as best man. Mr.
and Mrs. McGowan left on the evening
train for a brief wedding trip to Wil-
liamsport and other places. The WATCH-

BIG BARN BURNED.—During Saturday's
hard storm, between twelve and one

penitentiary farms at Rockview was

exorbitant tariff taxation would have end-
ed then and forever. Such a law would
have achieved results for good that must
have been felt instantly.
Since that former Senator SMITH has
been serving the trusts in various ways,
We do not believe now and have never
believed that he was perfidious to his
party ticket at any time, but it is practic-
ally certain that he has invariably been
on the side of monopoly and a man so
aligned can't be trusted as a representa-
tive of Democracy. For these reasons
Governor WiLsON, Democratic candidate
for President, is right in declaring him-
self against the election of SMITH as a
Democrat to the Senate. It may cost
him some votes, for SMITH is resentful,
but it will fulfill his public obligations
and satisfy his conscience and that will
be recompense for any loss to a self-re-
specting man.

we notice that no Democrats in Vermont
were fooled by such oratorical rubbish.
