PEACE MEETING IN PETRIKIN HALL.—
In compliance with a call by Mrs. George,
state president of the W. C. T.U, a
meeting was held last Sunday afternoon
in Petrikin hall to pray for a speedy end-
ing of the European war. Rev. Dr.
Schmidt presided, Rev. Dr. Glanding and
Rev. Shuey taking active part. Unavoid-
able circumstances prevented the other
ministers from attending. Quite a num-
ber of people were present and a very
earnest, inspiring meeting resulted—the
first of the kind to be held in Bellefonte.
——If you always want to have the
best take the WATCHMAN and you'll

.=——Have your Job Work done here,
morning by Rev. W. W.. Hartman, after |
tail end, narrowly missing the flag. “La. t
“dy Bess,” G. B. Welliver’slittle bay-mare, ' hypocrite.”
L of the people should control this ques-
on William H. Patterson, Candidate for State Senator.
As a candidate for the office of State
Senator in this District, Mr. Patterson
stands for the enactment of Equitable
Labor Compensation Laws and Child La-
bor Laws. He will urge sufficient appro-
priation for State College to afford the
young men and women of the district,
and of the Commonwealth, engaged in
agriculture, mechanical, mining and in-
dustrial pursuits to obtain free of cost a
collegiate or technical education. He is
in favor of a change in the manner of
obtaining State aid in support of the hos-
pitals and believes that the State should
create and appropriate a Budget for this
purpose, the Budget to be appropriatod
and divided pro rata among the hospitals
of the State according to the number of
free patients receiving treatment the
year previous. This would take the hos-
pitals out of politics, and each hospital
would receive the amount of State aid to
which it is entitled.
Mr. Patterson also stands for a repeal
of the present State Highway laws and
advocates the division of the highways
into sections containing a number of
miles each, and the election of supervis- |
ors from the community in which the
section is located, whose duty it shall be
to employ the workmen, purchase the’
materials, build, and keep in repair, un-
der the supervision of a county engi-
neer, the said sections of road in con-
formity with certain specifications, the
whole to be under the supervision of a
Highway Department. This would mod-
el the Highway Department along the
lines of the common schools of the Com-
monwealth as at present constituted, and
the money appropriated by the State
would be expended upon the roads and
not go into the pockets of favored and
political contractors and State employees.
Mr. Patterson. also stands for county
wide Local Option laws being submitted
to the people. . He believes that the elec-
tors. of this State-and.Senaterial--District
should have the privilege of voting upon
this question and that the majority vote
tion.
Mr. Patterson has always been a Dem-
ocrat in politics. He, however, has never
aspired to holding office for the emolu-
ments thereof, has never been a candidate
for a State or county office, but has been
serving the people as school director and
in office drawing no compensation.” For
some years he served as ‘a member of
the Houtzdale school board and for nine
years was the president of the school
board at Clearfield. While a member of
the Clearfield school board he succeeded
in introducing into the school the Depart-
ment method of instruction, and in con-
nection therewith manual training, do-
mestic science, physical culture, vocal
and instrumental music, and a depart-
ment of elementary chemistry. 3
He is now serving his third term as a
Trustee of The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege, to which institution he has. given
much of his time and energies, but with
the satisfaction of assisting and affording
the young men and women of this Com-
monwealth, engaged in the agriculture,
mechanical, mining and industrial pur-
suits, the opportunity of obtaining an ed-
ucation free of cost. It has been his
pleasure to have assisted young men from
this Senatorial District through college,
who are now occupying responsible posi-
tions of trust in many of - the largest!
tutions in the United States. Mr. Patter-
son is also preaident of the Shade Tree |
Commission of Clearfield, the object of !
which is to furnish and beautify the al- |
ready attractive city. He is also engaged
in the business of mining and shipping
bituminous coal and it speaks well for
him that he and his partners have never
experienced any labor troubles or dis-
putes with their employees. Mr. Patter-
son has also been a director in the Clear. |
field National Bank for the past twenty
years and is one of the Governors of the
Chamber of Commerce of Clearfield, an
institution that has made Clearfield one
of the most thriving and progressive
towns in the State. He has been a mem-
ber of the Presbyterian church for the
past thirty years and is actively engaged
in’ Y. M. C. A work.
To many of. the citizens of Centre
county, William H. Patterson, candidate
for State Senate, is a comparative stran-
ger. His grandfather, Captain James
Patterson, several generations removed,
who settled at Conestoga Manor, in Lan-
cancaster county, Pa., in 1715, was also
the grandfather of the descendants of
Gen. James Potter, Hon. Andrew Gregg
Curtin, and Gov. Curtin. His grandfath-
er, Capt. John Harris, of Mifflintown, Pa.,
also several generations removed, was
also the grandfather of the descendants
of James Harris, who with Col. James
Dunlop laid out the town of Bellefonte in !
1795. He also has the proud distinction |
of being the nephew of William Calvin |
Patterson, late Superintendent of the |
experimental farms at State College, who |
served. that institution efficiently and |
faithfully for more than thirty-seven
Years... uj Ea \
Thus, while a stranger to most of our |
citizens, Mr. Patterson comes from the |
same forebears who have done so much |
to advance the material interests of Cen- |
tre county. Aisa ows sperinedd
Mr. ‘Patterson was born ona farm at
Warriorsmark, Huntingdon county, Pa.
His father was John Irwin Patterson,
who served over four years as a member |
of Company I, 5th Pennsylvania Reserves,
and was quartermaster of his regiment. !
His mother was Sarah Hutchison, a near :
relative of the Grays and Matterns of
Centre county. His youth was spent up-
ona farm, his education being obtained |
in the common schools, at Millersville |
State Normal, and at State College. To |
obtain this education he taught school in
the winter and attended school and
studied law in the summer. He read law |

Mr. Patterson proposes and promises,
if elected, to advocate and work for the!

CENTRE COUNTY FAIR A SUCCESS.—The
big Centre county fair closed last Friday
and it proved a success in every particu:
lar. The attendance for the week about
equalled that of last year. Wednesday's
crowd of paid admissions was slightly
under that of last year, Thursday's was
also a few less but there were between
three and four hundred more paid ad-
missions on Friday than on Friday of
last year.
As stated in last week’s report the
races were the best ever seen at the fair,
because most of the horses were new to |
Centre county people and there were |
enough of them that every race was hot-
ly contested. Thursday’s races were the
slowest of the week and while both
events were won in straight heats they
were interesting enough to hold the
crowd until the finish. The summaries
are as follows:
2:18 trot and pace, purse $250—

. The big free-for-all on Friday was the
exciting event of the week. J. C. Pack-
er's “Waverley” won the first two heats
and the crowd thought the big gelding
had a cinch on the race but in the third
heat he broke badly and came in at the

The only unfortunate occurrence of |
the week was the fall of aviator W.:
Leonard Bonney. While the accident
gave the large crowd a thriller they will |
never forget it was unfortunate because |
it prevented Mr. Bonney’s ascent on
Friday and resulted in the almost total
destruction of his machine. The fortu-
nate side of the accident was the few in-'
juries sustained by the daring aviator.
Though shaken up and bruised he was
able to leave the Bellefonte hospital on
Friday evening and Saturday evening he
and his mechanician left for New York
city. Mr. Bonney avers that this was
the fourth accident he has had, and the
fall the highest of any. His greatest re-
gret is the wreck of his machine, which
represented practically all he had.

PHILIPSBURG HAD SUCCESSFUL CELE-
| BRATION.—Philipsburg had” a big three
day’s celebration in the early part of the
week and no doubt a good part of it was |
due to the indefatigable work of the ar-
rangement committee's press-agent, Ellis
Freeman. He simply compelled the peo- |
ple of Centre and adjoining counties to
believe that the crowd would he enor
mous and they (couldn’t_ stay ‘away. . At
any rate Philipsburg had about as many
guests as she could comfortably accom- |
modate during the three days.
The industrial parade and band contest
were the chief events on Monday, The
parade was the largest and best gotten
upever seen in Philipsburg and the band
contest was between eight well known
bands in Central Pennsylvania. Five
prizes were awarded and Our Boys band,
of Milesburg, took the third prize of
$50.00. ru
The big event scheduled for Tuesday
was a head-on collision between two rail-
road trains on the Allepopper . railroad.
