PLEASANT GAP.
Received too late for last week's issue.
William Bilger Jr., after a brief vis-
it to his parents here, has returned to
Pittsburgh.
Miss Mary Hile is visiting with her
friends, Mr. and Mrs. Milton Kunes,
of Blanchard.
Miss Edith Neerman is spending a
few weeks with her sister, Mrs.
Grove, at Tyrone.
H. H. Hoy has moved from the
Thomas Jodon farm to Pleasant Gap '
and is again working at Whiterock.
A kitchen shower was held Wed-
nesday evening fir Mrs. Lee Sampsel.
A most enjoyable time was the result.
The Misses Anna Corman and El-
la Wagner, of Oak Hall, spent the
week-end with Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Reish.
John T. Noll, our artistic painter,
left on Saturday last for Woodlawn,
to visit relatives, and incidentally,
look after some business interests.
S. M. Hutton has returned from |
Franklin, New Hampshire, and is bus- |
ily engaged in getting matters in
shape for the resumption of our knit- |
ting mills, the wheels of which are
expected to turn in a week hence.
Some of the Gap employees at the |
penitentiary, owing to the drifted |
roads, had to abandon their cars and |
are now walking to and from their
work. They say the experience is |
embarrassing, but they have to grin |
and bear it. : i
One of our bachelors says that he |
has the means necessary to keep a |
‘wife in good style, and is probably of |
as disagreeable a disposition as most
bachelors of his type are, yet he is
not sure that getting married would
not spoil his present comfort, besides
making some woman unhappy.
Mrs. Ida Houser took a run to
Bellefonte a week ago and while there
had the misfortune to fall on the icy
pavement and fracture two ribs. She
returned home on the first bus and has '
since been confined to her rooms, but
is convalescing nicely, and it is to be
hoped that she will be herself again
at an early date.
0. M. Loneberger, of the Loneber-
ger farm on the mountain, a short dis-
tance from the Gap, has a large shed
addition to his barn. The constant
fall of snow became too weighty for
the structure and a few days ago it
collapsed, causing considerable dam-
age. Mr. Loneberger’s new sleigh |
was completely demolished, and be- |
sides, considerable damage was done
» Jom implements stored in the
shed. :
The Noll Bros. have rented their
Pleasant Gap hotel to Mrs. John Mey-
ers. The new landlady will no doubt |
make a success of her new evnture,
since she is an excellent cook, and
well qualified to conduct a hotel suc-
cessfully. The new state road man-
agement who expect to begin opera-
tions as soon as the weather condi-
tions will permit, have booked fifteen
regular boarders for the new enter-
prise. This being the only hotel be-
tween Bellefonte and Centre Hall, it
will no doubt attract considerable
transient trade; sufficient to make this
a paying venture.
Our abandoned knitting mill will
again resume operations within ten |
or fifteen days. The new machinery |
was shipped from Philadelphia a week |
ago. The new firm is quite extensive-
ly engaged in the knitting industry, |
and have quite a number of mills in
successful operation throughout the |
country. This is not an experiment
but a substantial reality. Our former
knitting mill superintendent, Mr. Hut- |
ton, whose family still resides here, |
is expected here in a few days, hav- |
ing been re-employed as superintend-
ent. Ten girls will be employed as
soon as the machinery arrives and the |
mill is placed in operation. The new
firm expect to double the capacity in |
the near future. |
If you don’t want to marry, or have i
an attack of heart disease, keep clear |
of regular company. Go into socie- |
ty as much as you please, have all
the fun you can, but beware of en-
tangling alliances. An innocent flirta-
tion often leads to serious complica-
tions, and at very best it is unprofit-
able. It often happens that a young
man often finds his girl is in love
while he is only in fun. He regrets
that she is taking it so seriously, but
lacks the courage to talk with her
plainly on the subject, and in the fond
Tope that she may outgrow it, he al-
lows her to drift on and on until at
last he is compelled to abandon her
abruptly or marry her. If he is ten-
Ader hearted and does not want to
make her miserable for a time, he
marries her—and makes her misera-
ble for all time. When a cool-headed
woman sets herself to entrap a man
she is very apt to succeed, especially
if she is nearing that age when ladies
object to leaving the family record |
where every Tom, Dick and Harry can |
get at it. She may love him and she
may not. If she does not she will
probably tie him with her apron
string, and go on striving to catch
one who suits her better. You may
be sure she will not let her prisoner
loose until after she has entrapped
another man to her liking. She is not
to blame for trying to get a lover to
her taste, but it is not exactly right
for her to keep a poor fish on the
trot-line until it is starved and worn
cut, and then throw it back into the
stream again when she gets another.
These ambitious creatures are foxey
and require watching.

HUBLERSBURG.
Received too late for last week’s issue.
Miss Margaret Weaver made a bus-
iness trip to Tylersville one day last
week.
Not much doing in this community
at present but shoveling snow and at-
tending sales.
Mrs. William Clevenstine Sr, of
Zion, was the guest of Mrs. James
Larner recently.
Rev. Faust made a business trip to
Bellefonte last Thursday, while Mrs.
| Faust and little Charles Henry spent
the day at the home of Mrs. Jacob
Crow.
The public sales are being well at-
tended in this community, regardless
of cold weather.
Mrs. D. A. Deitrick, after spending
some time at Axe Mann, has return-
ed to her home in this place.
Snow, snow, and then comes the
blow. People living along the state
road between Bellefonte and Lock Ha-
ven will soon be accustomed to get-
ting along without mail or bus con-
veniences. It has almost been a week-
ly occurrence for some time to have a
little snow followed by a little blow,
which made it impossible for any one
to travel. But let us remember there
is no use finding fault with the weath-
er man. He understands his business
and knows just what he is doing.

N any well managed business,

Close up that end of the business.
Bell telephone operations in
Pennsylvania are yielding no

Certain units of the Bell Sys-
tem in other states have been
granted increases in rates which
make it possible for them to
meet their expenses.
Today, Pennsylvania is not in that
class and we in Pennsylvania cannot ask
other states to shoulder our responsibili-
ties. We must face our own problems.
In Pennsylvania right now, we are
not making ends meet.
We have our own bills, our own
payrolls, our own dividends to pay.
We can’t ask other states to pay them.
We must have increased rates in
Pennsylvania or the service cannot be
kept up.

To protect your loved ones.
To safeguard your estate.
By making a Will you can appoint the Bellefonte Trust
Company as your Executor or Trustee.
You can thus assure to your heirs the business manage-
ment and financial responsibility which this institution affords.
Your wishes can be observed in the distribution of your
property, for if you do not leave a Will the law may divide up
your possessions in a way that you might not desire.

him name the Bellefonte Trust Company to act as your Execu-
tor and Trustee.
