LIBERTY BONDS SOLD WELL.
Over One Million Dollars’ Worth
Taken in Centre County.
Charles M. McCurdy, chairman of
the Centre county Liberty Loan com-
mittee makes the following report of
bonds sold within the county:
Centre county subscribed over one
million dollars to the second Liberty
loan, as follows:
Subscriptions within the territory
forming the Centre county dis-
trict were $453,950
Philipsburg reports subserip-
tions of 572,350
Making total for county, 1,026,300
Of this amount
Bellefonte subscribed $265,850
State College 67,500
Snow Shoe 36,800
Centre Hall 23,150
Howard 20,000
Millheim through Far-
mers’ National Bank 16,000
Subscriptions received through other
sources aggregating $24,650 make the
total as above.
CHARLES M. McCURDY,
Chairman.
Of the above amount credited to
Bellefonte $35,200 were sold by the
committee appointed by the Burgess
and the Board of Trade in the big
drive made on Liberty Day, October
24th. This budget is probably the most
gratifying of any because it repre-
sents the results of the work of a
large corps of workers who made a
house to house canvas in Bellefonte
during all the storm and rain of last
Wednesday; and furthermore is the
contribution of the common people,
as the entire amount is made up al-
most entirely of $50 and $100 bonds.
And it is because of these facts that
both the solicitors and purchasers
cannot be too strongly commended
for their patriotism.
Notwithstanding the fact that Cen-
tre county outside of Philipsburg had
been apportioned $600,000, it must be
confessed that although that mark
was not reached the district did very
well indeed. In fact this very liber-
al purchase of Liberty Bonds shows
that Centre county has the patriotism
to give her sons to fight for their
country and give the money to keep
them properly while they are doing it.
Little Bellefonte Girl Found Near
Bellwood.
If the story of little Katherine
Farley is to be believed an attempt
may have been made last week to
kidnap the child when she was induc-
ed to accompany a strange woman on
a trip from Bellefonte. In connec-
tion with the incident Monday’s Al-
toona Mirror contained the following
story of the finding of the little girl:
While patroling his beat near Bell-
wood at 6:15 last evening railroad
officer John Gartland, of this city,
found an 8-year-old girl on the rail-
road tracks, just as a fast passenger
train was due at that point.
After getting her off the tracks he
questioned her and she said her name
was Katherine Farley, that she lived
in Bellefonte and that she had come
to Bellwoood, to hunt some relatives,
claiming that a strange woman had
met her in Bellefonte and had paid
her way to Bellwood, giving her $1.25
in addition to her railroad fare.
Gartland took the child to H. F.
Reese, express agent at Bellwood, who
gave her supper and cared for her un-
til her relatives there were located.
_ She was sent to them for the night
and a telephone message to Belle-
fonte developed the fact that her
mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Farley, was
nearly frantic, not knowing what had
become of her. She was sent back
home this morning.
Small
Scarce, Deer Quite
Plentiful.
Centre county hunters have not en-
joyed a profitable season sO far, as
small game such as squirrel and
pheasant, seems unusually scarce.
The rabbit season opened yesterday
and as these frisky little animals are
reported quite plentiful they may af-
ford sport for the hunters until the
opening of the wild turkey season on
November 15th.
But the big bulk of hunters are
looking forward to the opening of the
deer hunting season on December first
for the real sport. According to re-
ports from the Seven mountains deer
are unusually plentiful. Pennsvalley-
ians who live at the foot of the moun-
tain frequently see deer feeding in

ported very scarce.
Roy Swartz, of Logan Mills, and
Mrs. Henry Mowery and daughter, of
Aaronsburg, Sundayed at the home of
Samuel Mowery. °
Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Wert, their son
Ralph and daughter, Mrs. Burrell, of
Penn Hall, spent last Saturday very
pleasantly at the home of O. F. Sto-
ver.
Last Friday was the most disa-
greeable day of the season. But des-
pite all the rain the Stover threshing
crew cleaned out an eight hundred
bushel job.
Do bad dreams always accompany
a guilty conscience? If so, how
about that thief, (as we may say)
who was seen by Mr. and Mrs. O. F.
Stover, leaving their barn with a bag
which was stolen from their granary
on Monday afternoon? Run! He
surely did when he saw who his spec-
tators were. Another instance of do-
ing your best for people when they
will turn down the wheel of right and
justice to follow out what seemingly
looks good, but in the end tastes very
bitter. “Ouid erat facciendum.”

He, with another German, was dis-

What bothers us is what we are

we must eat less bread; the next pa-

are so high that a short person can’t
reach them anyway, so what in thun-

question.

Men of Pennsylvania to Renew Their
Youth.
If the program, for fathers, in the
observance of Father and Son day,
Thursday, November 15th, is carried
out as suggested, many staid business
men will plunge, at least for the day,
into the fountain of eternal youth.
Following are some of the things
suggested for fathers to work out
with their sons. Take a hike; get out
on back lot and help kick the football
around; join in with several other
fathers and their sons for an “over-
night” camp; go with boy to see a
football game; have a frank friendly
talk with the boy on matters of sex
hygiene; get on a friendly, chummy
basis with boy.
The purpose of Father and Son day
is to challenge fathers throughout the
entire State to give special thought to
their real relationship to their sons.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
The FORD is called ‘“The Universal Car”
because it is so largely used along
every line of human activity; by physicians, traveling salesmen, architects, con-
tractors, manufacturers, wholesale and retail merchants, tradesmen, municipali-
ties, colleges, missionary institutions, hospitals, governmental departments, public
and private corporations, farmers, and it is giving a most wide individual service—
including the pleasures of social life in the widest sense. The one standard chas-
sis with several designs in bodies, from the neat Runabout to the handsome
home of William Patterson.

the fields, two, three, and as many as
seven in a herd. And they are not all
does, either, as quite a number of
bucks have been seen, some of which
were crowned with” wide-spreading
antlers.
But the Seven mountains is not the
only district in the county in which
deer are reported plentiful. They
have been seen in the Barrens, en the
Sugar valley mountains and on the
Alleghenies, so that deer hunters may
anticipate some good sport during
the two weeks of the hunting season.

To Inspect Fertilizer Experiments at
Snow Shoe.
During the past two years the
School of Agriculture at The Penn-
sylvania State College has been con-
ducting fertilizer experiments on
abandoned farm land near Snow Shoe
to see if it is possible to reclaim such
‘land to such a degree that will make
it worthwhile cultivating. The first
experiment was made last year and
another one has been made this year.
In order to see just what has been
done the college officials have invited
state officials, members of the Board
of Trustees, press representatives and
prominent citizens to accompany them
on a trip of inspection to the experi-
mental plats on Friday of next week,
November 9th. Autos will be provid-
ed to convey the visitors and the par-
ty will leave Bellefonte immediately
after the arrival of the morning
trains.
