EE ——— SE THINGS ABOUT TOWN AND COUNTY “It Pays to Advertise” at the opera house tonight. A little daughter, who has been named Jane, was born Monday to Mr. and Mrs. John Curtin. The Williamsport High school basketball five will be the Academy’s opponents in the last game of the sea- son on the Y. M. C. A. floor tomorrow (Saturday) evening, at 8:15 o’clock. As this will be your last opportunity turn out and show the Academy boys you appreciate their sport. The Undine fire company held their customary St. Patrick’s day ban- quet on Monday evening at their building on Bishop street. P. H. Gher- rity presided and made an interest- ing talk in introducing as the speak- er of the evening Col. H. S. Taylor. "The latter made a very patriotic and inspiring address. “Watchman” readers are re- reminded of the fact that tonight will be the occasion of the Penn State Thespian show at the opera house when they will give the mirth-produc- ing play, “It Pays to Advertise.” Real girls will appear in the cast and the college orchestra of fifteen pieces will furnish the music. Landlord H. S. Ray is making another improvement in the Brocker- hoff house by dividing No. 41, the large sample room on the second floor into two rooms and installing a pri- vate bath in each one. This will give him virtually seven rooms with bath, while most of the other rooms are equipped with hot and cold running water. Lorimer Bullock, a son of Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Bullock, of State Col- lege, has been visiting friends in this section the past week. He is now ‘with the Canadian flying corps, in training at Windsor, Can., and has al- most completed his course. In fact the reason he was given a brief fur- lough to visit home was because he expects to go across in the near fu- ture. ——Hon. John Noll has decided not to rebuild his laundry on south Water street. Notwithstanding the fact that he got a complete adjustment of his insurance he considers that it would not be good business to build at pres- ent. Of course this does not mean that he will not start in business again, as this is a thing he has not yet decided himself. But if he does he has the offer of several good and suitable buildings in which he can.lo- cate. ——The second war fund campaign of the American Red Cross will be conducted during the week of May 20th to 27th, and the amount asked for is one hundred million dollars. A like sum was raised a year ago but has been expended in the various kinds of relief work in this country and Europe, and in order to continue the splendid work we must all con- tribute according to our means. The amount the Bellefonte Chapter will be asked to raise will be announced later. The program at the Scenic this week will conclude with Mary Pick- ford tomorrow night in “The Little American,” and the regular semi- weekly Pathe news film. It is a fit- ting ending to a week of good pic- tures, but it is nothing more than can be expected at the Scenic. Man- ager Brown is giving his patrons the best that can be secured and the big attendance every evening is evidence that his efforts are appreciated. Therefore if you want to see good pictures the Scenic is the place to go. —The new Titan metal plant at the site of the old Nittany furnace will probably be tried out next week. - With the exception of the power the plant has been in shape to run for some days, but it was held up on ac- count of delay in receiving the wire to connect the big motors with the service line of the State-Centre Elec- tric company. The wire reached Bellefonte on Tuesday and a gang of men are now engaged in stringing it to the new plant, and it is likely that the work will be completed this week. Edward Hepburn had the mis- fortune on Tuesday to lose his pock- etbook containing $105.00. He lost it on Bishop street, in the neighborhood of the Baum home. Mrs. Henry Kline saw a young man pick up the pocket- book but did not recognize him. Mr. Hepburn not only reported his loss to the police but made a still hunt him- self most of Tuesday night without getting any definite trace of his lost property but .Wednesday it was re- turned to him intact, having been found by a Bellefonte Academy stu- ent. William D. Stitzinger, of New Castle, who as a student of che Belle- fonte Academy enlisted early in 1917 in the hospital corps of the First Pennsylvania cavalry and went to Camp Hancock when that organiza- tion left here on September 11th, has been discharged from service on ac- count of ill health and reached his home in New Castle about two weeks ago. When the First Pennsylvania cavalry was broken up about the Hol- idays Stitzinger was transferred to the 112th field hospital. On January 25th he underwent an operation in the base hospital which left his health in such a condition that he was-finally discharged. rT The Great Drive for Farm Labor is On in Centre : County. All Men and Boys Should Enroll in This Patriotic Move- ment. ‘Farm Labor to be Given Deferred Classifica- tion. Read Carefully the Instructions Below. The great drive for sufficient labor to man the farms of Centre county is on. America must produce the great- est crops in her history this season or be threatened with the invasion of her own soil by the Germans. If we do not raise enough to feed ourselves and our Allies the fight will be lost before we can get our full military strength to the other side to support the sol- diers of France and England who have been fighting since 1914. Those coun- tries have put so many of their men in the fighting line and into the muni- tion plants that they haven't enough left at home to till the soil and must depend on us for food. Men and boys of Centre county, this year will be what our great President said it was to be: The determining point of the war. Our government has told our Allies that we can be depended upon to pro- duce the food necessary and it is now up to us to make the promise good. Within the next two weeks we must enroll every man and boy who is ca- pable of doing any work on a farm, if he is not already working on a farm. There may not be any need for them but the emergency demands that a list of available men and boys be immedi- ately compiled so that if they should | be needed we will know where to find them at a moment’s notice. This week there are being mailed to all the ministers of the gospel, all the secret fraternal, patriotic and oth- er organizations, all the public school teachers and Sunday school superin- tendents in the county, full informa- tion as to how the enrollment is to be carried out. Let us appeal to every citizen of the county to enthusiastically co-operate in the work. It is absolutely necessa- ry to the welfare of our country. All men who are capable of going out in an emergency to help for a day or so, whether they are preachers, bankers, lawyers, merchants, mechan- ics or laborers should enroll. Every boy old enough to do the chores ‘or follow a harrow or drive a hay wag- on on a farm should enroll. Every clerk or mechanic or laborer who once lived on a farm and has had some farm experience should enroll. The cards will indicate whether the person enrolling can give only a few days during the season or whether he wants to spend the entire summer on the farm. Don’t let the thought of the wages to be earned deter you. That isn’t patriotism. Think of it like those men who hurried to help the flood strick- en city of Lock Haven thought of that. Our country is in need of relief today just like Lock Haven was and the call is more imperative because it makes its appeal to the patriotic in addition to the humanitarian impulse. THE FIRST MEETING HELD. On Monday at 2 o’clock a meeting was held in the arbitration room in the court house in Bellefonte to for- mulate the plans for the campaign. There were present fully two hundred farmers and others from all parts of the county, but, unfortunately, Mr. Geo. C. Signor, the represemtative of the Department of Civilian Service and Labor of the committee of Public Safety for Pennsylvania, who was scheduled to be here and speak missed his connections in Harrisburg and did not reach here in time for it. The meeting was called to order, however, and the purpose stated by Geo. R. Meek, executive secretary for Centre county. Then Dean R. L. Watts, of the school of Agriculture of The Pennsylvania State College; County Superintendent of public schools, D. O. Etters; Clement Dale Esq., chair- man of the Four Minute speakers; R. H. Olmstead, county farm agent; for- mer county treasurer G. G. Fink and Burdine Butler, of Howard, spoke. All of the gentlemen urged the utmost endeavor on the part of every one to get out the greatest acreage ever planted in Centre county. But all of them expressed the opinion that such a result can only be accomplished if the necessary labor is procurable. That is the problem now and the so- lution is up to us. Are we going to solve it? We can if each and every one of us does our part. THE SPEAKER ARRIVES. Mr. Signor arrived on a late after- noon train and a meeting was called for 7 o’clock in the evening in order that he might explain the plan of or- ganization to be effected in Centre county. Mr. Signor is himself a far- mer and is at present farming one thousand acres of the most fertile land in the Schuylkill valley; right at the doors of the great Bethlehem steel plants and surrounded by other indus- tries paying high wages. According- ly he was qualified to talk to the few farmers who remained in town for the evening meeting. He spoke to them in a sympathetic vein, but ser- iously impressed upon them the call that the world is making for food stuffs and the response that we as farmers must make to the call. He said that the farmers much more sub- jected to depletion of their help in districts surrounding the great indus- problem than we in comparatively is- olated Centre county have, yet they lare co-operating enthusiastically and hopefully to meet it. After the formal meeting was dis- missed Mr. Signor went into confer- ence with Mrs. J. Thomas Mitchell and Mrs. John Porter Lyon, repre- senting the Council of Home Defense; | Prof. Jonas E. Wagner, representing | the Boys Working Reserve and Geo. |R. Meek, the executive secretary. The i plans were laid out as above formu- | lated and provision was made to em- ploy a man at once who will do noth- ing but work on the farm labor prob- lem in Centre county until the crops are planted and harvested. This man will be selected this week and he will be under the direction of D. F. Kapp, of State College, chairman of the committee of Civilian Service and La- bor for Centre county, and will co-or- dinate his work with that of the coun- ty farm agent, Mr. Olmstead. PROCEDURE TO SECURE DEFERRED CLASSIFICATION IN THE DRAFT FOR FARM LABOR. It was hoped that at this time we would be able to announce finally and positively that all farm labor includ- ing graduates from agricultural courses of colleges, farmers’ boys who are actively working and will partially skilled in farming will be given deferred classification. Such legislation is now pending in Congress and in all probability will become ef- fective in a few days. But until it is passed we cannot make a positive statement as to how those concerned must proceed. However, the local exemption board has authorized us to publish the fol- lowing REGULATIONS FOR FILING CLAIMS FOR DEFERRED CLASSIFICATION. 1 Where registrant has made no claim— A statement should be prepared similar to Series XII of the Question- naire, accompanied by an affidavit of the claimant. Attached to this state- ment should be an affidavit by the owner of the farm and a second affi- davit by a near neighbor. 2 Where registrant has made claim which has been refused by the district board: In cases where such claims were le- gitimate, refusal was usually caused by carelessness or incorrectness in the make up of the Questionnaire. A careful statement should be pre- pared in accordance with Series XII, accompanied by the proper affidavits, together with such additional infor- mation as would tend to convince the district board of the necessity of re- opening the case in question. All statements and affidavits must be prepared on paper measuring 8% by 11 inches, and must be submitted to the local board in accordance with the Selective Service Regulations and not to the district board. The local board will in all cases im- mediately forward all proper papers to the district board with the recom- mendations provided by the Regula- tions. Inasmuch as the regulations soon to be passed will require procedure along and through the regular con- stituted authorities we would advise all to follow the above instructions and act at once. Any help that the secretary of the Centre county com- mittee can give will be cheerfully fur- nished. As to getting boys who are already in the service furloughed for farm work. It must be borne in mind that they can only get such furloughs in the event the above bill is passed and then only because they expect to and actually do work all of the time of their furlough on a farm. It would be well for any persons interested in securing help in this way to write to the boys at once and have them make the application at the camp—the only place it can be done—so if the law is passed their applications can be acted upon at once and no time lost. IMPORTANT. Since the above was put in type trials centres have a far more serious ! continue on the farms, and” laborers ‘orders have come to the Centre Coun- ty Draft Board directing it to defer | ‘all classes of farm labor, under stat- ‘ed conditions. This is the ruling | Secretary Meek announced at the ‘meeting would be forthcoming, but at 'that time it had not been actually re- ‘ceived. The Draft Board is now preparing a special application blank which Mr. Meek has volunteered to have printed and as a matter of accommodation will supply same to all persons desir- ling same, who apply either in person lor by writing. If you write be sure to enclose a stamped return envelope. When this application is filled out it should be filed at once with the lo- cal Draft Board in Bellefonte and a deferred classification will be granted. Must Report Fleur at Once. All persons who have failed to send in report of flour on hand .will do so at once on slip publish- ed in the papers. Signed, W. FRED REYNOLDS, Federal Food Administrator. eo HIKING IT IN GEORGIA. How the Soldier Boys at Camp Han- cock are Being Drilled. Camp Hancock, Ga., March 10. Dear We got back from our five day’s hike yesterday afternoon, none the worse for the trip. We left Camp Hancock about eight o'clock Monday morning, March 4th, and at 2:30 p. m. reached the 108th Field Artillery range. It is a distance of twelve miles, but the report is that we got on the wrong road and it made it about eighteen miles. About 10:30 it started to rain, and although we had our slickers in our pack which we car- ried on our back we didn’t stop to get them out but kept right on marching through the rain and mud. The pack which we carried contained a shelter half-pole, five pins, a slicker, blanket, towel, toilet and shaving articles, one suit of underwear, two pair of socks, mess kit, cup, and canteen filled with water, a bacon can with enough bacon for the five meals we had to cook our- selves; a cardamon can containing ground coffee, sugar, salt and pepper. The combat wagon brought our bar- rack bags out, containing two blan- kets and overcoats. As soon as we arrived we put up our pup tents and made camp. We did not have dinner until 3:30 and be- lieve me I was good and ready for it. I could have eaten a mule, I was so hungry. We had supper about 6:30 and after supper went right to bed. It was certainly a hard bed, as all that was between me and the ground was a blanket, and the ground was not very soft. We were pretty tired and were all ready to roll in, and even though we were sleeping on the ground, we slept good. The next morning we were up at reveille and had machine gun drill. We had the afternoon off, so we walk- ed over to the Y. M. C. A. for writing paper, and I wrote with my mess pan on my knee, so don’t be surprised at the writing, as it doesn’t make a very good desk. een We broke camp right after supper and left there about 6:30 for Sandy Creek. This was the longest hike we had during the whole five days. It was 2:30 in the morning when we reached our destination, which was a twenty-two mile walk. I was still holding out but about seventy men fell out of the whole outfit on this trip: Only one man out of our company fell out. We pitched our tents in the dark and rolled in. The next morning we were up at 8 o’clock for breakfast, but had the bal- ance of the day to rest up. The doc- tor was busy all day fixing up feet, but he didn’t need to fix mine. We went to bed early and at two o’clock in the morning got up and made ready to leave at three. We hiked till five o'clock, then stopped along the road and cooked our own breakfast. After breakfast we started on again, arriv- ing at a designated place at dinner time. There we pitched tents, cooked our dinner, rested all afternoon, and cooked supper. Then we had to go back to where we cooked breakfast to put out a big fire which had started by fellows not putting their fires com- pletely out. After we got back from there we rolled in. We left that camp at nine o’clock in the morning and walked until 12 o'clock, then stopped to cook dinner. After dinner we started on our last stretch, reaching camp about 2:30. After taking a good bath and changing clothes, I felt fine. It sure was a fine trip and a great experience, and I am glad I didn’t have to miss it. There is some rumor of a division hike next week but I don’t know how true it is. This morning we had a division review on the drill field. I am beginning to like this place pretty well, and it surely agrees with me, as I have gained 21 pounds since coming down and my muscles are hard as bone. Mrs. W. F. Reynolds was a welcome visitor to our camp and I didn’t miss the opportunity to call on her. It is good to see the mothers of the fel- lows when they come down from Bellefonte.” I have been informed that I have been recommended for a fur- lough, and I am hoping it will come soon.

Manna didn’t invite his neighbors to see the start off, prefer- ring evidently to be sure that he was going to be able to handle it before attempting a public demonstration. Local sales manager for the Interna- tional Co., J. M. Cunningham, and Manna got the critter fixed up and then went away into a back field where they would not be observed and went to it. The tractor performed beautifully throwing two clean regu- lar furrows and not making a single balk. Some rocks too big for two men to handle were turned up and several loosened that were so large that they will have to be blasted be- fore they can be gotten out. All this was done without apparently interfer- ing with either tractor or plows and a fourth of the big field was finished while they thought they had been do- ing nothing. Needless to say Mr. Kline is delighted and sees his spring plowing as a matter that is not going to give him any more concern than driving his Stude into town. Patriotic Mass Meeting. There will be a patriotic mass meeting for young women and girls in the court house, March 26th, at 8 p. m. Miss Anna Seaburg, of New York, national secretary of the Y. W. C. A., and Dean Thomas Blaisdell, of State College, will address the meet- ing. Music will begin at 7:30. It is hoped that every young wom- an in Bellefonte and many from out of town will be present. The general public is invited also. The aim is to mobilize our young women to help in every possible way our men who have gone to the front. Wilbur L. Malin on Tuesday re- ceived a telegram from his son, Og- den B. Malin, announcing the fact that he had been promoted to a second lieutenant and assigned to the Aber- deen, Md., proving grounds for in- struction. The promotion was unso- licited and came as a great surprise to the young man. Miss Sara Malin, who has for a number of years so successfully rep- resented W. J. Evenden Sons, leading florists of Williamsport, asks her pa- trons to place their Easter and spring orders at once, to insure a satisfacto- ry and early delivery. 63-12-1t For Rent.—Mrs. J. A.
