SEPTEMBER TERM OF COURT CON-
TINUED.
The following decree was filed by
Judge Quigley on Wednesday:
Whereas, the farmers of Centre
county are at this time engaged in
the heaviest work of the season and
because of the large number of young
men ordinarily engaged on the farms
being now in army service and the
consequent shortage of labor on the
farms, as well as in all other occupa-
tions; :
And Whereas, the registration un-
der the draft law, the filing of the.
questionnaires, and the fourth Liber-
ty Loan campaign will require a great
deal of time and attention on the part
of the members of the Centre county
bar, which will interfere with prepa-
ration for the trial of cases at the
September term of court;
And Whereas, it is our desire to do
all things possible to assist in any
way in the prosecution and speedy
termination of the war, the Court is
moved to continue generally the Sep-
tember term of court.
And Now, September 9th, 1918, for
the reasons above stated, it is order-
ed and decreed that the regular term
of court fixed for tHe fourth Monday
of September, 1918, is hereby con-
tinued generally and the Sheriff of
Centre county is directed to notify all
jurors summoned not to appear.
Court will open to hear motions and
petitions, receive accounts for confir-
mation, ete., at the usual time.
By the Court,

Service Co., of Philipsburg, entered a
bill in equity against a number of
coal operators in Centre and Clear-

polluting the waters of Cold Stream
with sulphur water and refuse from
their mines, and now the plaintiff filed
an amended bill asking for a continu-
ance of the injunction of restraint
until the matter is finally decided by
the court.

The Bead House Man
Company branch house won't run itself, and
that it is up to the branch house man to
run it properly.
Any branch house man who doesn’t
see his work in this light is transferred to
some other place with Swift & Company to
which he is better adapted.
They are picked men, these branch
house men. Every time you sit down toa
steak or chop, or cut of roast, you can give a
grateful thought to the whole crew of them.
And remember, in a general way, that
everything that makes life smoother and
more convenient for you,is the result of the
thoughtfulness and effort of a lot of people
of whom you have never heard.
This is one of the Swift & Company
Branch House Men.
They are all pretty much alike in the
way they feel toward their work—and that
is what this ad is about.
They know that most people couldn’t
get sueh good meat promptly and in good
condition if it weren't for the branch houses
of which they are in charge.
They know that the branch house is
one of the most important links in the chain
of preparing and distributing meat for a
nation.
They know that Swift & Company must
have its branch houses run at the highest
notch of usefulness; that even a Swift &

The Master Mind of Modern Pictures
D. W. GRIFFITH
Presents his Newest Triumph, the
Supreme Photo-Play of the War
“THE GREAT LOVE’
After four years of absence from the feature-play field, four years devoted to the mak-
ing of these world-famous super-pictures, “The Birth of a Nation,” “Intolerance,” “"Hearts
of the World,” D. W.Griffith returns to the theatre audiences of America with a lordly gift,
He now presents the D. W. Griffith conception of a great war feature-picture, a great
war-time romance. ,
He shows Love against a background of Hate.
He shows the splendid part Woman has played in the War,
love as expressed by arduous service.
“The Great Love” is rich in European color. You see London and Paris as they are now,
Zeppelins in the very act of bombing, bombs in the very act of exploding, soldiers in the
very act of fighting, attacking, rescuing, suffering.
Through it all you follow the fortunes of one young American soldier who enlisted in the
Canadian forces, and you see his expression of “The Great Love” both in his own tragic
courtship and still more in the terrible blow he suffers as his best pal dies on the battlefield
in his arms.
“The Great Love” will lift you out of yourself and make you proud of the stuff hamanity
is made of.
MATINEE—Starting at 2 P. M.
EVENING—Starting at 6 P. M.
ADMISSION—Adults 13 cents; Children 9 cents. Plus War Tax.
