Some nimble fingered gentleman lifted a nice roll of the long green from the home of W. E. McWilliams, at Rock Springs, last Friday, while the family was away from home. En- trance was made through a rear door that had been forced. John Meek, a hustling young far- mer of Waddle, is the owner of a fine drove of hogs, about one hundred in all.

There is a case of diphtheria in Brushvalley, about two and one-half miles southeast of Rebersburg. Many hunting stories are now be- ing told by our expert nimrods, but so far little game has been brought in. George Winters, who is in the Wil- liamsport hospital where he under- went an operation for the removal of a cancerous growth on his face, has about recovered and is expected home in the near future. Mr. H. H. Stover, of Smullton, isin the good graces of the people of this valley by furnishing them with coal when they can get it no where else, and for a cheaper price than other dealers ask, when they have it. All the churches took up subscrip- tions for Y. M. C. A. work in the ar- my last Sunday and the result was as follows: Lutheran church, $60.00; Reformed, $80.00; United Evangelical, $8.25; Evangelical, $5.00, a total of $153.25. The question of a town hall for Re- bersburg has again been revived and is being frely discussed. At present the town has no place outside of the churches for holding any kind of a public gathering and a town hall of adequate size to accommodate the people of the town and vicinity would be a very creditable addition to Re- bersubrg. Robert Meyer, a son of Hon. Henry Meyer, and a graduate of The Penn- sylvania State College, has been ap- pointed by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture as farm help spe- cialist for Pennsylvania. He will work in conjunction with the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the Public Safety Committee of Pennsyl- vania and will make a survey of the labor conditions throughout the State, both as to labor employed and men unemployed who can be drafted into service on the farm or elsewhere. Mr. Meyer, who will make his headquar- ters in Philadelphia, is an energetic and wide-awake gentleman and will without doubt prove a good man for the work assigned him. A public meeting was held in the High school room on Monday evening to consider the question of electric light for Rebersburg. Mr. Miller, of State College, representing the State- Centre Electric company, explained the proposition. C. L. Gramley was made chairman of the meeting and he appointed Orvis Walker, A. N. Corman, Wallace Kreider, T. A. Au- man, C. H. Smull and C. L. Gramley a committee to canvass the town and see how many prospective customers can be obtained as well as the senti- ment in favor of street lighting. Res- idents of Madisonburg are also con- sidering the proposition this week and sentiment seems to be strongly in fa- vor of electricity, so it is highly probable that the State-Centre peo- ple will extend their line through Brushvalley in the near future. One of the chief topics of conver- sation in our stores is quite natural- ly the war. It is in these stores that many wrong ideas are being caught by those who do not read either a daily or county weekly paper, and great care should be taken by those who express their opinions on some feature of the war, inasmuch as there are always some who believe and say what others say. We have some per- sons in our stores who read hardly more than the headlines of the daily papers and who have only a very su- perficial knowledge of the war, and especially of war conditions and fight- ing in Europe; and it is those people who do most of the talking and think they know more than those who are well informed and have made Euro- pean conditions a matter of special study for years. Everybody wants to know about the progress of the war but good, common sense should be used in believing only what is known to be correct. Some people become very much worked up over such war gas, especially when they have sons in the army. The sequel: Do not discuss a thing unless you really know something about it.

The Kaiser is a friendly man, As you will all admit; And when it comes to fighting, He bucks up and does his bit. He sends his sons all to the front— This is his family war To show the German soldiers What it is they're fighting for. All other German father’s sons Must charge and fight like mad; The Kaiser's sons keep out of it, Play safe, and fight like dad. Pleasant Gap has quite a number of women who are ardent supporters of the suffrage cause. Some are out- spoken in their advocacy of the cause so near and dear to them; but it must be said to their credit that they don’t approve of undoing the proposition like the frivolous bunch of women suffragists at Washington, who are making themselves ridiculous over the suffrage question. The fools, like the poor, we have always with us. But the loyal women who are proving the case of suffrage by their sane and ef- ficient co-operation in every great movement for strengthening the gov- ernment, ought not to have their cause jeopardized by these irrespon- sible fanatic creatures. If they would only show a little—just a little com- mon sense. The Patriotic Sons of America had a most successful as well as enjoya- ble meeting at their hall last Tues- day evening. Speakers from Belle- fonte, State College and home talent made some eloquent and appropriate addresses suitable to the occasion, all of which were highly appreciated by the large audience present. The pro- jected Ladies auxiliary was duly in- stituted, the same already numbering nearly forty members. When you start in to make a new venture a suc- cess about the Gap all that is neces- sary is to unite and cooperate with the women and girls of our community, and success is assured. The free luncheon was elaborate and most highly enjoyed and relished by the well filled hall of participants. that the women have a look-in the Washington Camp P. O.

Why suffer from a bad back, from shooting twinges, headaches, dizzi- ness and kidney and bladder ills? Bellefonte people recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Could you ask for stronger proof of merit? Mrs. C. Young, Potter St., Belle- fonte, says: “For more than a year I suffered from a dull ache in the small of my back. My back was sore and lame and when I bent over I could hardly get up again. I never felt able to do any housework. I had a languid feeling all the time and mornings I didn't feel like getting at my work. I was troubled a lot by dizzy spells. Doan’s Kidney Pills had helped so many people around here with the same trouble, I began taking them. I got my supply at Green’s Pharmacy Co. The first box cured me. It has been three years now since I have had any trouble from my back or kidneys.” Price 60 cents at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that cured Mrs. Young. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.
