Harrisburg, March 20.—Under the provisions of the Jones Senate bill, signed by Gov. Brumbaugh today, the State Highway Department will be able to use for improvement of state highways, to be constructed in the same manner as state-aid highways money appropriated for either state highways or state-aid roads. The Department was held up last summer by decisions that it could not employ state-aid money except for that object. The enactment of the law will release some cash now, and will be of advantage in future opera- tions. The decisions referred to above were given by Deputy Attorney Gen- eral William H. Keller and it result- ed in halting the plans for the build- ing of south Water street, Bellefonte, into a state highway. No® that the above bill has been passed and sign- ed it removes the obstacle prevailing last spring and there is every reason to believe that the street will be re- built this spring. *oe — What's the use of paying six eents a cake for your soap, when you can buy it at Cohen & Co. for four and a half cents. 62-12 Kline—Hali.—Guy A.

The citizens committee that has been operating the steam heating plant since the first of the year are no doubt breathing easier now. The first of April is almost here and they have successfully gone through the severe cold weather. Since they have had charge the average daily expense has been about $140, which makes al- most $4,500 a month. During Febru- ary and March the receipts were only a little over $10,000, so that the com- mittee has less than two thousand dollars to go on the balance of the season. Of course this will not be enough and a charge will have to be made for the heat for April but it will only be about on a par with what was charged for the month of January, and it is believed that that amount will run to the first of June, the end of the heating season. ——Ladies, you surely can get a bargain in shoes, if you can wear any- where from a size two and a half to a four.
