Mr. and Mrs. Eben Bower and two
lady friends, of Bellefonte, came
down to enjoy the commencement on
the 23rd.
Mrs. Bohn, of Tusseyville, came to
pay her parents, Mr. and Mrs. James
Wert, a visit; also to witness her son’s
graduation. The Messrs. Wert, of
Tusseyville, were also guests at the
Wert home.
Mr. and Mrs. Coxey and their
bright little daughter, of Altoona, are
visiting Mrs. Coxey’s mother, Mrs.
Koch. Mrs. Coxey was present to
witness the graduation of her niece,
Miss Katherine Koch.
Word has just been received of the
death of Prof. C. E. Edmunds, of
Akron, Ohio. Prof. Edmunds was
raised in this town but for many years
lived in Mazeppa, Pa., until a short
time since he went to Ohio.
The past week has been a very busy
one for the High school, as they made
splendid preparation for their com-
mencement on April 23rd, which come
off with glowing success. The exer-
cises were held in the Lutheran
church and notwithstanding the rain
the church was filled and everybody
seemed delighted with the program.
Following is the program as rendered
by the class:
Overture, Orchestra.
March, Orchestra.
Invocation, Rev. M. D. Geesey.
Salutatory, «phe Value of High School
Education,” J. Edward Bohn.
«The World State,” Helen Bower.
«rhe Power of Public Opinion,” John
Winkleblech.
Music, Orchestra.
“The Country of Tomorrow,’ Marian Ei-
senhauer.
“The Consolidated School,” Kathryn Koch.
valedictory, “Tonight We Launch, Where
Shall We Anchor?” Rhoda Bower.,
Music, Orchestra.
Commencement Address, Dr. Llewellyn
Phillips, of Bucknell University, Lewis-
burg.
Presentation of Diplomas by Director M.
I. Stover.
Music, Orchestra.
Dr. Phillips is a man of very pleas-
ing personality and a speaker whom
every one should have heard. He
brought so many good things that it
would be an impossibility to give. He
came out strongly on the very critic-
al situation we are in as a nation.
am sure there are many who would
again gladly sit under the sound of
his voice. We hope the occasion may
again present itself wherein we may
hear him speak on some such pleas-
ant occasion.
The class of 1917 has passed out
of school with honor, both to teacher
and themselves. The speaking
throughout the program was excel-
lent, each one nobly doing their part.
The scene on the platform will long
remain a ‘memory picture” in the
hearts of the many warm friends of
the class, who sat in the audience, and
while they were each speaking won-
dering too, “Where they would an-
chor;” hoping it might be to the
“Rock of Ages,” that thus they would
go through life a blessing and blessed.
So closed the school days of the
High school class of 1917, and we can
x wish them all a most successful
life.

The Kind You Have Always Bought.
The Extravagance of Buying Cheap
Tires.
(Caution by Arthur Brisbane, Noted Ed-
itor.) :
Mr. Geo. A. Beezer, of the Beezer
Garage, in this place, in speaking re-
cently on the subject of tire economy,
referred to a timely editorial by Ar-
thur Brisbane, that appeared last Sun-
day in all the Hearst newspapers.
Mr. Brisbane, who is probably the
highest paid editorial writer in the
world and who is himself an ardent
motorist, has strong convictions on
the tire question, and his views are
well worth reprinting for the infor-
mation of others who are desirous of
getting the most value possible when
they buy tires. The Brisbane editor-
ial says in part:
«Automobile extravagance is based
oftener on the buying of tires and
tubes without character than on any
other department of automobiling.
The making of tires is an absolute
science, to which engineers and man-
ufacturers have devoted years of
study and millions of dollars in ex-
periments. .
The well-made tire represents act-
ual cash invested. It has its fixed
value, and do not let anybody per-
suade you to the contrary.
Beware of a dealer who tells you
that he can sell you “this tire cheap-
er and just as good.” It has no
name on it that you ever heard of be-
fore. “But it is made by a big fac-
tory,” says the dealer, “and they sell
it to me cheaper.”
Such talk is misrepresentation and
cheating.
Study the tire question for your-
self; act in the purchase of tires as
you would in the purchase of mater-
ials for your business. Buy of relia-
ble concerns that have millions of dol-
lars, years of experience and a repu-
tation more valuable than their inves-
ted capital back of their product.
To buy cheap tires, cheap tubes,
wastes money and destroys pleasure.
This applies especially to the man
who ownes one of the lower priced
cars and drives it himself. To him
the bursting tire means money and
hard work.
The man driving his own car knows
that a well-made tire is one-half the
pleasure of automobiling.
Fortunately the makers of the best
tires devote especial attention to the
light cars. There is nothing more
extravagant’ than a cheap, poorly
made tire on one of the lower priced
automobiles. \
Dollar for dollar the good tire will
give more than double the mileage
and five times the pleasure.
Mr. Beezer, who is the local Miche-
lin dealer, says that his business this
Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
Four-Fold Benefit
From Two Grand Medicines in Spring.
You know that physicians often
give two prescriptions, perhaps more,
or medicines to be taken together, or
alternately or at different times.
One reason may be that the medi-
cines are “incompatible”—do not
agree when closely mixed in taking—
or that desired results cannot be se-
cured by one medicine alone.
The most successful combination
spring medicine treatment that we
know of—because perfectly “compat-
W. | ible” and productive of the best re-
sults—is in Hood’s Sarsaparilla and
Peptiron Pills. The former thorough-
ly searches out and expels impurities
from the blood, while Peptiron Pills
give the powerful tonic—they literally
“put iron into your blood.”
Hood’s Sarsaparilla should be taken
before meals and Peptiron Pills after
meals—patients taking them so report
the benefit is four-fold 62-17

He attributes a large.measure of his

SHOES FOR THE FAT LADY
I have taken the agency for AUNT POLLY’S OUT
SIZE Shoes for stout women.
This line of shoes is scientifically constructed to fit the
stout woman with short, fat feet and wide ankles.
The average woman who has a foot of this kind,
must get a shoe two or three sizes longer than her
foot in order to get the width, but with a pair of
AUNT POLLY shoes she can get the shoe just the
right length.
A pair of AUNT POLLY shoes number 7 will not look
any larger than a number 5 of the ordinary shoes.
I have all sizes from 3 to
