Bellefonte, Pa., June 11, 1915. ADDITIONAL COUNTY CORRESPOND- ENCE. REBERSBURG. Strawberry short cake and ice cream next. : The professor loyally carried the ko- dak, commendably. Be always deferential to the aged and polite to your companions. Jerry Brungart has entertained a party of friends who arrived last week. Hackenbergs, too, use Jersey cream for their freezer and are content with re- sults. Mrs. George B. Haines visited her daughter Lizzie, at Altoona, the past week. “A merry heart doeth good like medi- cine but a broken spirit drieth up the bones.” : James P. Frank is paying his spring visit to his son, Prof. Orvis Frank, at Philipsburg. Millheim should send more avoirdu- pois with the ball in order to balance our piratical sluggers. U. S. mail carrier Stover thinks Spang- ler’s Gap about the coldest niche in the U. S. this side of Alaska! One man longs for strength to come to his limbs so he can go to ‘the Taber. nickel” and see his sweet-heart on the | way. Let none disdain to work. Those who loll in idleness are fit subjects of Satan, though clad in satin and bejeweled with saphires. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Fishburn and ‘Mr. and Mrs. Anita Hoy were Sunday visitors at Mr. and Mrs. Israel Hough's, at Smullton. The pictures of the “Flower Girls” are in demand. There is poetry in flowers. The tenderest emotions cling around buds and blossoms. Miss Mary Smull and her friend Mac of Millheim and another couple on Satur- day autoed to Williamsport and return- ed on Monday evening. The township, by trying to shut off the road to Cal. Mallory’s “Shady side,” has gotten itself in for 2 new bridge over Elk creek. So much for poor counsel! Jake Gephart and his sister, Martha Gramley, left on Monday for the golden west. Several fair ones will sadly miss “Jakey,” but it will not be a long time. There were so many stories current about the Pike shooting that they are all referred to the next court of Quarter Sessions at Bellefonte for final unravel- ing and judgment. Saturday evening, June 12th, at six o'clock the Rebersburg lodge of Odd Fellows will hold impressive Memorial services. The Aaronsburg band .will furnish the music. The township dirt scraper has been back and forth through town, but nota blade of grass has yet been touched. Our Barbara Fritchies are standing by their guns and flags! All the present incumbents of the county officers who are re-eligible, it is said, will submit their names for a vote of confidence. This includes our vigilant county auditor, Jerry Brungart. Mrs. Geo. B. Haines returned from Al- toona on Saturday. She also visited Bellwood where she greeted Mrs. Anna Weaver, Mrs. Scott Burd, Mrs. Henry Royer and other natives of this valley. W. J. Hackenberg made enough dur- ing two years of Wilson’s administration, selling shirts, overalls, etc., to afforda new touring car. On Sunday he took his mother and his family to visit a sick brother at Shamokin. The Reformed church people, follow- ing the natural trend of improvement, have papered and painted the Sunday school room and otherwise beautified their place of worship. Pastor Stauffer himself led the good work. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis M. Bierly are en- tertaining Mrs. W. N. Johnson and daugh- ter Lulu of Dents Run, Elk county, who expect soon to go to Portland, Oregon, where their son Sam’l is engaged in realty business, and establish their home there. Mr. Johnson was formerly P. M. at Dent’s Run. Supervisor Bajr has made some pike of the right kind on the highway to Smull- ton—such we should have through our burg. Since the scraper tore up the lawns and carried the ground on Main street it has become muddier than it has been known to be in the memory of the _ oldest inhabitant. There are wifely butter makers who can beat creamery butter—such as Mrs, Ira Brungart, Mrs. Reish, Mrs. Robt. Hackenberg, Mrs. Samuel Mowery, Mrs. Geo: ge Waite. Well, there are many others. To mention them all would fill -one page of the WATCHMAN. Their but- ter sells at a premium. There was a W. C. T. U. conference on Saturday evening prior to the W. S. meeting. Those who favor the proposition and will vote for the amendment foresee that by linking the bibulous budget with the vote vagary the latter is doomed to defeat. The only way to stop drinking it, is to guillotine the guzzlers. Mrs. J. H. Landis has been a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Krumrine the past week. Her husband, the Rev. Landis, once pastor of the Reformed church here, expired in the George Weaver home, whilst on a visit to his many friends. Mrs. Landis and her youngest son, August, reside at Altoona, where August is employed by the Penna. Railroad Co. An incident occurred at Memorial serv- ices at Madisonburg which should not be overlooked. The beautiful Union flag used there was the gift of Dr. Alfred Bierly, of Chicago, to his native village. It was designed by him with all the States in a circle of stars on a field of blue and a star within the circle. A resolution is pending on Congress to make this design the new national emblem. By the act of July 22, 1913, the public road running from Centre Hall eastward through Brush valley and the Long -Narrows and through Union county to an intersection one mile east of Mifflin- burg became a state highway June 1st and from that date must be constructed and maintained “at the sole expense of the Commonwealth.” If it is neglected henceforth, “grin and bear it.” On Saturday evening the High school room—not one-tenth big enough, was crowded to the stair-case by ladies and gentlemen to hear Mrs. and Dr. Beach, of Bellefonte, give their reasons why women should have the right to vote. Hon. C. L. Gramley introduced the'speak- ers with well chosen compliments and they elucidated the subject nearest their hearts to the entire satisfaction of the large audience which greeted them. On Saturday the ambitious burg of Tylersville “just over the mountain” held the greatest event of its history, three valleys participating. The occasion was P. O. S. of A. Memorial day. There were forty-two Odd Fellows from Rebers- burg lodge in parade and about two dozen Golden Eagles from Lamar. Many were accompanied by their ladies to the temperance village. The Green Burr band furnished the music. Eloquent ad- dresses were made by three preachers, who are not averse to fraternal orders. On Sunday, June 12th, of 1859, there was a white frost in Brush valley and all vegetation except the most hardy was killed to the earth. The date is fixed by the time of the death of Wm. B. Magee, which occurred at Stover’s inn at the northwest entrance to the Long Narrows on June 15th, 1859. The Sunday previous which was the 12th, his nearest friends were called to his bedside to visit him for the last time in this world. This spring is said to be almost a replica of that spring and June frosts are antici- pated, by old timers. If Pres. Wilson could hear from the plain people instead of the Anglo-Amer- ican pressand the blatherskites he would be more firm than ever in his policy of “watchful waiting.” We can adopt a policy of protest and non-intercourse without going to war. Germany cannot get at us if she would, neither can we get at Germany, if our scientists, profess- ors, school maam’s and laudedahs will stay at home and earn their salt. In making the British ship Lusitania an issue instead of the Gulflight and Neb.- raskan, we play directly into the hands of the war ninnies of Great Britain with her do-nothing navy and booby army. There is much foggy-mindedness about the right to carry fire-arms, since the State sportsmen have got legislation re- quiring a license. The constitutional right of a citizen (not an alien) to have and bear arms. in his own defense can- not be infringed. The license law only applies to the game which is pro- tected by law, as one judge has already pointed out. But the carrying of con- cealed weapons and fire arms with un- lawful and malicious intent is made a misdemeanor by act of March 18, 1875, P. L. 33, and the penalty is a fine not ex- ceeding $500, or imprisonment not ex- ceeding one year, or both. The carrying of revolvers by boys, make a noise and terrorize the neighbor- hood, is unlawful and malice will be im- plied, if in promiscuous firing, some per- son or animal is wounded. On Thursday a recherche affair tran- spired at the residence of Adam Wolf near Wolf’sstore. - Mrs. Wolf prepared an elaborate dinner for her sisters and chil- dren and invited some friends to share the excellent cuisine with them and heighten the enjoyment. She isa queen of culinary culture, as all who partook from her viands will testify. There were thirty plates set and the variety gave satiety. Among those honored to be pleased were Mrs. Ellery Herman and children of Jersey Shore, Mrs. Wm. Con- fer, Avis, Mrs. A. D. Mingle of Dunlo, daughter of Mr. Wolf, and two daughters, Mr. and Mrs. John Page and daughter Neta, Mrs. Charles Page and two daugh- tersand Mrs. M. C. Haines and son Ken- neth. The life of the party was stirred into jocularity by Mrs. Herman and Neta Page, who say there is no joy in rural life, besides the good living? Uncle Josiah: I see dat uncle Toby sez a tabber-nickle is dot blace vere dey runs a money makin maskeen vid hot airs! lbrong, uncle Toby. Dey may call it tabbernickle, or nickertabble or babble. tickle or any sing dey likes. A tabber- nickel is not a saw dust black. My Goot Book dells me dat it is a blace vere de Chews meet in most giviet communings mit Yarva. It was called in Hebrew, “Ohel moed,” dat iss, vere God and man meet and sinful man ' keeps him very still before God whose laws he has tram- pled all under his feet. He can not tear up de airs and yell himself hoarse like a locomotip. Die same Goot Book dells me dat “no man can see God and live.” Die early christian beeples had no tabber- nickels. Dey had alters and fires in oak groves, and men dey built churches dey put deir altars in de very inside blace and called it “Holy of Holies”--Die Die Roman Katolick briests kept deir goblet and silber dish vich contain die Encharist in dis blace. Uncle Toby can find dis in die Peoples’ Cyclopedia, if he iss not too lazy!” PLEASANT GAP PICKUPS. A large congregation attended Child- ren’s day services in the Methodist church on Sunday, where the following program was rendered. The Lutheran Sunday school was held in the High school building at 9.30 on Sunday morning. The Lutheran preach- Ing services at 2.30 in the afternoon were in the Methodist church. The Kern automobile accident here at ten oclock on Sunday morning caused considerable excitement in our village. Fortunately no one was hurt very badly and all were able to be taken back to Bellefonte shortly aferwards. Opening chorus by choir; assisted by orchestra Prayer by pastor, Rev.

Smith, of John Smith & Bro. left on Saturday last on a six weeks trip to California : J. C. Lee, station agent, who has been on a’‘two weeks vacation, will resume his position on Monday next. Ivy Bartges, who has been quite ill for the last ten days or two weeks, is up and about again, but says that he is not yet feeling first rate. About every family in town has mem- bers in the garden, finishing up the plant- ing business and putting things in order, and then for a rest until the early pota- toes need a hoe. C. C. Cummings has just received from Philadelphia three family portraits, his father, mother and his own, painted when he was a little peevish boy, togeth- er with a sister on same canvas. The former portraits were painted a century ago, and the latter about 60 years ago. Notwithstanding the age of the portraits they look as if painted only last year. They are certainly valuable prizes. The condensay located here, under the careful and able management of W. O. Gramley, has become decidedly an insti- tution of business. On Monday last they shipped over 24,000 Ibs. of milk to the Mill Hall plant, the average daily ship- ments being 20,000 lbs. The R. R. Co. has been obliged to furnish them with refrigerator cars of a greater capacity than used heretofore, owing to the large and increasing shipments. : The sudden death of Charles W. Fish- er, on Thursday last, was a shock to Penn Hall and also to this community. Mr. Fisher had not been very well for several days, but not seriously ill. He had been troubled more or less with neuralgia of late, and this finally reach- ed the heart and caused his death. Mr. Fisher with his twin brother, Frank, sons of the late J. B. Fisher, were in business at the old stand established by their father many years ago and were engaged in large business operations. was made in the Salem cemetery on Wednesday, Rev. Donat officiating. The funeral was very largely attended. A. W. Rokenbrod, the genial proprietor of the Spring Mills hotel, seems to be continually making improvements to the house. He has recently placed a new pump in front of the hotel, removed the old hitching post, and erected a new and imposing sign. He has fitted up a well lighted wash room, with porcelain basins, mirror and all the necessary re- quirements, and has just added to the handsomely furnished reading room and office a large and beautiful three quarters oak writing table for the use of his guests, Mr. Rokenbrod says that he has been doing an excellent business since he has had charge of the hotel. The fact is, for comfort, convenience and accomo- dation, the hotel now is second to none in this section of the county. WOODWARD. Mrs. Emma Nein is a Millheim visitor this week.

Hosterman and son Stewart, of Coburn, spent Saturday very pleasantly at the home of L. L. Weaver. An automobile party of the following ladies, Mrs. Earnest Printzhoff, Mrs. John Vonado, Mrs. John Charles and Miss Margaret Orwig called at the home of C. M. Fiedler, Saturday, on their way home to Hartleton from State College. Mr. Stewart Hosterman autoed Mrs. Lewis Orndorf, Mrs. C. M. Fiedler, Mrs. L. L. Weaver and daughter Maude to Millheim Sunday afternoon to attend the decoration of the Modern Woodmen; and also took in the services at the Tab- ernacle. EAST BRUSHVALLEY.

Mrs. Frank Weaver is at present suf- fering great pain resulting from a severe fall two weeks agp. There is no reason for hearing a word of complaint. Everything is in a fine growing condition. Every garner will be Saturday night.

Interment | Danger of Lockjaw in Felt. - That commercial gelatin, charcoal and other substances useful in medi- cine and surgery may contain the germs of lockjaw is well known. Quite recently it was found that felt 50 commonly used in orthopedic reten- tive dressings may also contain these germs in abundance. Two patients who had been treated at a German hospital lost their lives as a result of infection from the felt plates used to make a retention support.
