Wells, in charge at Scranton, pinned
the highly prized decoration on Sergt.
McElwain’s breast. The presentation
was made at exercises held at the en-
trance to the federal building in Wil-
liamsport, before which a large crowd
of people gathered to witness the
event. Prior to the presentation a
very appropriate address was made
by Rev. Charles Noyes Tyndell.
Sergt. McElwain was honored by
the French government for volunteer-
ing to give first aid to five wounded
soldiers under heavy bombardment.
He enlisted for service at Gettysburg
in July, 1917, and after a course of
training spent one year and two
months overseas. He was in engage-
ments in the Marne sector, in Belleau
wood, at St. Mihiel and the Meuse-
Argonne sector. He had alreadf re-
ceived the United States distinguish-
ed service cross for extraordinary he-
roism in action in administering first
aid to comrades under heavy shell
fire.
Sandy Ridge Demonstration To-
MOrrow.
Sandy Ridge and Retort citizens
will have a big demonstration to mor-
row (Saturday) in honor of the for-
ty young men from that section who
served in the world war. They have
erected a very appropriate monu-
ment on the school house grounds at
Sandy Ridge and will unveil the same
tomorrow. The exercises will include
a big parade at 10 o’clock a. m., which
will be led by Our Girls band of
Milesburg. Following the parade the
unveiling ceremonies will take place
and at that time there will be speech-
es by Judge Henry C. Quigley, W.
Harrison Walker, Col. H. S. Taylor
and others. The afternoon will be
devoted to sports of various kinds.

Bellefone People Looked Good to Him.
Last week J. Frank Smith, of Belle-
fonte, received a letter from his son,
Calvin Smith, who is now located at
Casper, Wyoming, where he holds a
good position with the Mid-west Re-
fining company, in which he told of
seeing the Emerick family from this
place as they passed through Casper
on their homeward trip. Giving it in
his own words the young man wrote
as follows:
“Last week I came in from
works and much to my surprise I saw
a car from Bellefonte, and of course
I had to know if I knew them, so I
inquired their names and found them
to be Mr. Emerick and his family.
They were on their way east from a
trip to the Pacific coast and Yellow-
stone Park. I did not know them but
.they knew Swengel and you and John.
It did me a world of good to talk with
them as they were the first people from
Centre county I have talked with for
over two years. It was just like be-
ing back home. Miss Emerick was
very nice and told me all the news
about the kids and the young people
that I chanced to know. Their bus
was something new for the people of
the west and many people took the
opportunity to see it while they were
in town.”

——Returning from Lewistown on |
Tuesday aviator Gilbert B. Budwig
encountered some motor trouble while
sailing over : Pennsvalley and came
down at Centre Hall to make proper
adjustments. He spent a half hour
or so there then sailed over Nittany
mountain to Bellefonte, being accom-
panied on the entire trip by his mech-
anician, “Dizzy” Cruse. This week
the young aviator has been housed up
with a bad attack of hay fever and
Thomas Beaver and Hard P. Harris
have been endeavoring to make dates
for him to appear at various county
fairs. While no contracts have yet
been closed negotiations are now on
with fair managements at Hughes-
ville, Lewisburg and Milton.

ALLISON.—Edward Allison, a life |
long resident of Potter township,
passed away at his home at Potters
Mills at eight o’clock on Sunday
morning. He had been in poor health
the past three years and had been
confined to bed continuously since last
Christmas, the end being hastened
by a slight stroke sustained on Satur-
day. :
Mr. Allison was a son of William
and Sarah Allison and was born on
the old homestead farm at Potters
Mills where he spent his entire life on
August 2nd, 1855, hence was 64 years,
1 month and 12 days old. His boy-
hood days were spent on the farm
and in attending the public schools
and later he attended The Pennsylva-
nia State College. His father died in
1876 before he had completed his col-
lege course and he quit schoel and
went home to take charge of the
farm. The result was that he made
| farming his life-work and for forty-
three years tilled the acres of the
old homestead.
He never married but is survived by
two sisters and two brothers, namely:
Mrs. Frank McCoy, of Bellefonte;
Mrs. J. F. Alexander, of Centre Hall,
who spent the past two years help-
ing to care for her brother; Hon.
William M. Allison, of Spring Mills,
and Archibald Allison, of Bellefonte.
Funeral services were held at his
late home at 10:30 o’clock on Wednes- |
day morning by Dr. W. K. McKinney, !
of the Bellefonte Presbyterian church,
after which the remains were taken

——Many lot owners in the Belle-
fonte cemetery have wondered why
the new wire fence which has appar-
ently been on the ground since early
in the summer has not been put up.
The reason is that the fixtures that
hold the wire in place were not sent
with it, and it has been impossible to
put it up. But the fixtures were ship-
ped this week and should arrive any
day. Rhoads & Son have the contract
for the fence and as soon as the fix-
tures arrive will put it up, so that it
is certain to be up before cold weath-
er sets in.

Lieut. Perigard Killed.
Bellefonte and Centre county
people who heard Lieut. Paul Peri-
gard speak in Bellefonte early in the
year 1918 in behalf of war-ridden
France, will regret to learn that the
young priest was killed in an auto-
mobile accident at St. Paul. Minn., on
August 31st, according to a recent
news item. Of the number of men
who saw service in France and later
spoke in Bellefonte in behalf of that
country, none made a more favorable
impression upon the people of Belle-
fonte and Centre county than Lieut.
, Perigard, and it is a lamentable fact
that after braving all the horrors and
dangers of war for more than two
years he should meet up with fate in
an automobile accident.

Lloyd Stover, of Penn town-
ship, was the victim of a peculiar ail-
ment recently. While working in the
harvest field a beard from a head of
wheat lodged in his throat and he was
unable to cough it up. Ever since he
has been greatly annoyed by it and
recently his throat became ulcerated
as the result of the foreign substance
lodged therein. Last Thursday he
came to the Bellefonte hospital and
had the beard removed from his
throat and he was able to return home
on Friday and is now at work as usu-
al.
Over one hundred laborers on
the state road between Bellefonte and
Pleasant Gap went on a strike on
Monday for an increase in wages of
from four to five dollars a day. When
informed that four dollars was the
very limit that would be paid many
of them returned to work on Thurs-
day.
