A pre- liminary organization was perfected at a meeting held at the Republican office last Friday evening when the following officers were chosen: President—F. W. Crider. Secretary—Edward Robb. Treasurer—John Curtin. Vice Presidents—Charles M. Mec- Curdy, Dr. J. J. Kilpatrick, T. H. Har- ter, Edgar Burnside, George A. Bee- zer, Benjamin Bradley. Board of Governors—Judge H. C. Quigley, Robert F. Hunter, J. M. Cun- ningham, Geo. R. Meek, Toner Aikey, Willis Shuey, Chas. E. Dorworth. Legal Advisory Board—J. C. Furst, John J. Bower, N. B. Spangler, J. Kennedy Johnston, W. D. Zerby, Kline Woodring. The organization will be known as the “Centre county association for the conservation of fish and game,” and while the object was only tentatively expressed at the meeting last Friday evening, another meeting will be held this (Friday) evening in the grand jury room at the court house to fur- ther discuss the work of the associa- tion. As now outlined the member- ship fees will be but nominal and as there is opportunity of doing a great amount of good in securing closer co- operation between the State depart- ment of game and fisheries every sportsman in Centre county should rally to the support of the new organ- ization. Child Starts Fire in Barn, Building Burned. While playing with a match last Saturday morning Lynn Stover, the four year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ber- nard Stover, of Lyontown, set fire to the barn and the flames had made such progress by the time they were discovered that it was impossible to save the building and it was burned to the ground. In fact the little boy narrowly escaped with his life. Matches have always had an unusu- al attraction for the child and realiz- ing the possible danger in the boy playing with them the parents were very careful to keep them out of his reach. But on Saturday morning he managed to find a match in his fath- er’s coat pocket and then he quietly meandered off by himself. Going to the barn he found all the doors secure- ly fastened but he crawled inside through a hole made for the dog to get in and out. Of course it wasn’t long until he struck the match and started a fire. Then, boy-like, he climbed in an old buckboard wagon and watched the fire burn until it be- gan to get too hot for him when he scrambled out of the wagon and man- aged to make his way through the smoke to the hole through which he gained entrance to the barn and crawl- ed out. But it was a narrow escape, as the child’s hair was singed from close contact with the fire. While the destruction of the barn is a total loss to Mr. Stover, as he allow- ed his insurance to expire just recent- ly, there was little of value in the building owing to the fact that he is not engaged in farming at the pres- ent time. Farm Loan Association News. The “Watchman” last week told about the organization of the Nation- al Farm Loan association of Centre county. In connection with the offi- cers chosen at that time James C. Furst Esq., has been appointed attor- ney for the association. The twenty applications made by the charter members for loans aggregating $72,- 500 will be acted upon this week, after which three appraisers will be ap- pointed by the Board of directors of the association and an appraiser sent here by the Federal Land bank of Bal- timore who will visit the farm of each applicant, appraise his property and make a recommendation relative to the requested loan. If everything is found in a condition to justify the loan the necessary papers will be pre- pared forthwith and the money should be forthcoming within three or four weeks. In the future any person can make application for a loan and mem- bership in the association to Nelson E. Robb, the secretary and treasurer, at the Bellefonte Trust company. Seem a Huntingdon Presbytery to Meet in Bellefonte. The spring meeting of the Hunting- don Presbytery will be held in the Presbyterian church, Bellefonte, next Monday and Tuesday. While the Presbytery confines its semi-annual meetings to two-day sessions they are quite important epochs in the church history. In the Huntingdon Presby- tery, for instance, are eighty churches with seventy ministers and eighteen thousand communicant church mem- bers. Itis expected that not less than one hundred and twenty ministers and lay delegates will attend the meetings next week. Rev. R. D. Daubenspeck is modera- tor of the Presbytery and the pro- gram arranged includes a business session on Monday afternoon when the various reports will be received. i A public meeting will be held on Mon- day evening in the interest of foreign missions when the speaker will be Rev. John L. Eakin, D. D., for many years a missionary in Siam. Business meetings will also be held on Tuesday morning and in the after- noon. One of the important things of the Tuesday morning session will be the election of commissioners to the next general assembly of the church which will meet in St. Louis on May 15th. The Huntingdon Presbytery is entitled to elect as commissioners three ministers and three elders. Presbytery trustees will also be elect- ed at the same session. Final reports will be made on Tuesday afternoon and the appointment of the place for holding the next regular meeting of Presbytery. Eggs for Sale.—Barred Plymouth- rock eggs for hatching.—Miss G. M.

Other districts are expected to adopt the “butt:in” plan and get the jump on would-be hecklers. These speakers will present them- selves at all meetings and will discuss the Loan situation in a constructive way to dispel all criticism, hostility and heckling which might result when the selling drive opens if the public were not acquainted with facts in advance. The speaking campaign was outlined at a meeting of county representatives in the Union League, Philadelphia, presided over by Arthur Peek, chair- man of Group A, which includes the southeastern counties, Harold B. Beitler, who will direct the speaking activities in this distriet, declared that an appeal must be made to the sense of decency of the Ameri- can citizen to step up and pay the bills incurred. The nation, he said, needs a good reputation to figure as a respected member of the family of nations—a position which it cannot hold if it does anything toward repudi- ating honest debt.
