- Demo ican. { { Bellefonte, Pa., a THINGS ABOUT TOWN AND COUNTY — Only a little over two weeks ! until the opening of the Bellefonte public schools. The Milton Sportsmen’s asso- ciation will hold a registered shoot on Labor day, September 2nd, begin- ning at ten o’clock. The lc. sale at Green’s Phar- macy opened with a rush yesterday. Quite a few people were in line before the doors opened and there was a stream all day picking up the bar- | gains that a penny will buy. The members of the Nittany Country club are going to pull off a corn roast in the grove in front of the club house tomorrow evening at six o’clock. The roast will be exclu- sively for members., no guests being | invited. Don’t forget the concert by the | Loysville Orphans’ band in front of | the High school building at 7:30 o'clock on Sunday evening. In case of rain the concert will be held in the building. The concert will be | free but an offering will be lifted to ; go coward the support of the home- less boys and girls in the orphanage. A patriotic service will be held | in the Lutheran church at Pine Grove | Mills at 10:30 o'clock Sunday morn- ing when the Stars and Stripes and a service flag will be dedicated and placed in the church. The services will be in charge of the pastor, Rev. L. N. Fleck, while the principal ad- dress will be made by David F. Kapp, | of State College. Announcements have been re- | ceived in Bellefonte of the marriage ! of Frances Bailey Elmore, a daugh- | ter of Mrs. Mary E. Elmore, to Mr. | Montford Burns, in New York city on July first. They will be at home in Washington, Pa., on and after Sep- tember 15th. The Elmores formerly lived in Bellefonte and the bride is well and favorably known here. Benjamin Bradley has secured the contract for remodeling the Lyr- ic theatre and has begun work on the same. One of the most important | changes will be the lowering of the! floor to give a street-level entrance. It is expected that the work will be ! completed by the middle of Septem- ber, and until that time the Lyric will be closed to all entertainments. The Titan-Metal company this week received a request from the government to enclose their entire plant with a high board fence, as a matter of protection against inquisi- tive and unlawful people. The com- pany is also arranging to enlarge their plant so as to practically double its capacity in order to meet the de- mand for their product for war emer- gencies. ——John Cherry, who has been foreman in Hugh N. Crider’s sucker stick factory ever since it was start- ed, resigned his job recently and on Monday went to Mill Hall to take a job in the milk condensary there. The result of Mr. Cherry’s leaving is that the sucker stick factory has been closed this week and probably will be until a new man is secured or some other arrangements made. A bus party composed of twenty members of the Patriotic League, drove to the Harvey bunga- low on Marsh creek, Tuesday even- ing in the Johnson truck wagon. The ideal condition of the weather and the hospitality of their hostesses, who were a party of friends from the Y. W. C. A, in camp there, added one more to the delightful summer enter- tainments of the Patriotic League. ‘When time hangs heavy on your hands and you don’t know what to do of an evening, try the Scenic. No other motion picture show in this section gives such an execcllent pro- gram of motion pictures. Even stran- gers in the town aver that the pic- tures shown there are of a higher class and more up-to-date than they find in most places. If you don’t want tc miss some of the best pic- tures become a regular patron. The State division of the Amer- ican Red Cross has contributed $4,000 towards the relief of the Loganton fire sufferers. The most of those who lost their homes and household goods had some insurance but not near enough to cover their loss. Some of the residents had no insurance at all. A committee of Loganton citizens the Sunday after the fire collected $600 from sightseers at the ruins, and this amount has been increased by volun- tary contributions, but the sum is not yet sufficient to meet the needs of the burned out people. For this reason a committee of responsible citizens has been appointed and an effort will be made to collect more money in the towns throughout the central part of the State. ——The Red Cross baseball league is nearing a close. On the regular schedule there are but three more games, with two postponed games ad- ditional. Last Friday's game be- tween the North and West wards was won by the North by the score of 5 to 3, and Tuesday’s game between the Nerth and South wards proved a reg- ular fiasco, the score being 12 to 2i.. favor of the South ward when the game was called on account of dark- ness at the end of the first half of the fourth inning. The game later was given to the South ward and the re- sult is that the North and South are just about neck and neck in the race for the pennant. This evening the North and West wards will play and it will be worth double the price of admittance to see the game.

The local exemption board has summoned sixty-nine more young men of Centre county to appear here at: (Saturday) for special or limited military serv- ice. Another call will be made for men to go early in September but Centre county’s quota or the date has not yet been announced. From the number to be furnished by the State at that time Centre county will like- ly be called upon for a good sized quota. During the past week an order re- ceived from the War Department di- rected the local board to call all reg- istrants of 1917 before the 1918 class is taken. The local board for Cen- tre county made a special plea on be- half of the deferred calls for farm labor, but in return has received the following telegram: Local Board for Centre County, Au- gust 19, 1918, Replying to letter August 19, qual- ified registrants of 1917 class must be exhausted before involuntarily in- ducting registrants of 1918 class. If you can secure volunteers from 1918 class they may be substituted for reg- istrants of 1917 class who have been deferred. MURDOCK.

Young men of Centre county who have attained the age of 21 since June 5th, 1918, must regis- ter tomorrow (Saturday) at the sheriff’s office, Bellefonte. Fail- ure on the part of any one to so register will make them amena- ble to the federal laws governing the selective service system. The hours for registering are between 7 a.m. and 9 p. m. ; The Central Railroad of Pennsylvania | to Cease Operations on Sept. 28th. | True to the “Watchman’s” predic- i tion that the Central Railroad of { Pennsylvania would not discontinue | service until ample time had elapsed : : to clear up freight in transit, to with- { draw joint rates and serve such other | notices as are necessary when a com- ! mon carrier ceases to operate; trains, | both freight and passenger, will con- i tinue to run over the line until Sep- tember 28th. The hearing on the application for { the dissolution of the charter of the i road was held in Philadelphia on Mon- | day. There were no protests or pe- | titions against the application. In { fact there was nothing presented in i court to indicate that Nittany Val- ! ley, Bellefonte or Lock Haven has | any use for the railroad. That being the case the legal process was con- cluded with the result that the com- pany has posted notices in all of its stations and notified all other roads with which it has had joint traffic rates that it will cease to operate any trains whatever on and after Septem- ber 28th next. Supt. J. K. Johnson, of the Tyrone division of the P. R. R., was in town on Tuesday and went over the Cen- tral line as far out as the Howard : street crossing. This would indicate that the Pennsy might be interested in taking care of the Armor’s Gap plants of the American Lime and Stone Co., as well as the business of the Empire Lime Co., further east. Toner A. Hugg Captured Escaped Prisoner. Toner A. Hugg, of Milesburg, sin- gle-handed captured the prisoner last Saturday morning who. escaped from the penitentiary on Friday morning. The prisoner was Frank Mentz, who was sent up from Allegheny county for from one year and three months to two years and six monthsy Fol- lowing his escape on Friday morning tracks showed that he had gone in the direction of the peach orchard. The police here were notified and a watch kept for him but no one was fortunate enough to get a sight, of him. Saturday morning Toner Hugg was on his way to work and near the rail- road depot at Central City he came across a man on the road whom he at once took for the escaped prisoner, as he had seen a picture of him Fri- day evening. Walking up to the man and placing his hand on his shoulder he asked, “What’s your number?” Without thinking the man gave the number. Toner then told him to go with him, and he did without making any fuss about it. Toner took him to the hotel, ordered his breakfast, and telephoned the penitentiary. Guards were sent down who brought him to the county jail. On Monday Mentz was taken be- fore Judge Quigley who gave him the usual sentence prescribed by law for escaped prisoners. Big Musical Event at Milesburg Tomorrow. The Loysville Orphans’ Home band, forty pieces strong, will be at Miles- burg tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon and will give a concert on the green at two o'clock. The band will be the guests of Our Girls band, of Miles- burg, and during the concert the two bands will mass and play some of the popular war time melodies. Our Girls band will entertain the Loys- ville band at luncheon tomorrow noon. This will be an opportunity to hear something fine in the musical line. The Loysville band of forty pices and a like number in Our Girls band will give a volume of eighty in- struments. The public is invited to attend this concert and enjoy the de- lightful music. On Sunday evening the Loysville band will give a sacred concert in front of the High school building, Bellefonte, in connection with a union religious meeting. The band will be the guests of the Lutheran church, and Rev. W. P. Ard, who will be in charge of the services, has invited the other churches to join in a union meeting and they willingly consented to do so. The public is invited to at- tend both the religious services and the concert. Centre County Farmers Buying Sheep. Harry Harter and J. O. Heverley last week had shipped to Centre coun- ty a carload of choice Merino sheep which they purchased in Greene coun- ty. The car contained 125 fine sheep. Mr. Harter will keep his portion of the sheep on his farm in Spring town- ship while Mr. Heverley has arrang- ed to put his share of the flock out among several farmers. This is a move that might well be followed by other farmers in Centre county. With the price of wool higher than it has been in years, mutton and lambs costing more than ever before the growing of sheep can be made one of the most profitable items on the farm. And especially because of the fact that they can be kept at a mini- mum cost for feed, ete. Is Centre County Facing a Sugar : Scandal. : | Reports from the office of federal i food controller Reynolds are to the | effect that individuals and merchants i all over Centre county are clamoring for sugar and there is no sugar to be | released. i At first glance it might appear that i we are on the verge of a sugar fam- ine, but such is not the case for to- day there must be in the homes of Centre county ample sugar supplies. The truth is that the merchants have withdrawn and the people have bought all of the allotment for the: months of July, August and one-third | of September. For Centre county 3 lbs. of sugar | per person was the allotment in July. { During that month alone 7 lbs. per person was withdrawn by the mer- chants of the county and if the sup- ply is now exhausted it is solely be- cause families have been permitted to buy more than they are entitled to. The allotment does not include the 25 lbs. extra allowed for canning and preserving and all of the canning requisitions for that purpose have been in addition to the regular allow- ance. There must be hoarding or wasteful use of sugar. The shortage can be accounted for in no other way. That there is hoarding seems to be estab- lished by the stories that are afloat as to the means persons have resort- ed to to procure more than their fair share of sugar. ered to have been unmarried and liv- ing in a boarding house, signed up for 25 pounds of sugar for canning and preserving. He probably gave that sugar to some person who had al- ready signed up and withdrawn a similar amount. In another case a woman bought 2 pounds of sugar at a local store, signing a card for it; then immedi- ately went to another store and made a similar purchase. Later she found out that her signed cards would event- ually trip her up and she returned the first purchase. The situation is just this: The county has been allotted plenty of su- gar and if you are short it is either because you have used more than pa- triotism warrants or that some one else has your share hoarded. What we want to do now is to ferret out the hoarders and the person who isn’t trying to get along with his or her reasonable allowance. If you are out of sugar and have clean skirts as to your own use of it and know some- one who has more than his allowance report him. It is your patriotic du- ty to do so. Don't be afraid to tell what you know. It isn’t fair that you should have no sugar and someone else plen- ty of it when there is enough for all, unless you have wasted yours. ; Let the federal food administrator know or report to the office of the Council of National Defense and Committee of Public Safety in Belle- fonte. It will investigate the matter and make any hoarder you report dis- gorge and suffer the penalty. It is not a sugar famine that Cen- tre county is facing. It is a sugar scandal. ——— The Community Sing. The “community sing’ has come to stay, as was evidenced last Thursday evening. The large number of sing- ers and the spirit in which they all sang aroused more enthusiasm than at any previous meeting. There are still hundreds of men and women capable of contributing to- wards a greater success, who either do not come near the Diamond at all or who stand on the border line. If the crowd grows big enough to reach out to the edge well and good, but the Patriotic League invites them to the “firing line” and thus make room for those who hesitate to do a “bit and best” along this sympathetic line. The Harmonic club and Mr. Smith give their services gratis and the words of the songs are provided, so no expense is attached to the under- taking. The purpose is one of the many to keep in close touch with the brave boys “over seas and over here.” Private Peat says, “We need your money, but we need your prayers, thoughts and smiles,” and no doubt he would be glad to add “your songs.” You will find no distinction between race, color or creed at the community singing and all are urged to attend. A Few Movings. Dr. W. U. Irwin has rented -the Episcopal rectory on Lamb street and will move his family there from Unionville at once. Sim Baum will move into the old home on Bishop street from Spring street.

Mrs. Alexander Risk, who recently sold her property near the old glass works, is arranging to take her fami- ly to South Altoona, where she hopes to find work for some of her children.

You remember Frank was one of the big fellows who always marched way up in front when the Logans turned out for parade as well as one of the busiest when they were called out to a fire. Physically he seemed trained to the minute and that is probably accounted for because he says there is so much work to be done in his department in the shops in Altoona that he has been at it every hour he can get in.
