the hands before eating were univer s-
al, the toll of many diseases would be
lessened.

A LIST OF ACCIDENTS.
| State College Student Killed in Auto
Accident.
i Edward E. Owens, who would have
! been a Senior next year at The Penn-
| sylvania State College, was instantly
killed last Friday afternoon when the
| auto which he was driving was struck
| by a locomotive on a grade crossing
lin York county, and Dr. H. H. Havner,
. of the department of anima! husband-
ry at the College, who was with him,
was seriously injured.
Owens, who was regarded one of
| the brightest students in the agricul-
| tural course at the College, was
| spending his summer vacation as an
| assistant in the York county farm
| bureau, and with Dr. Havner had
! been out in the country inspecting a
! drove of hogs on the farm of a mem-
ber of the Bruetz Creek Hog Breed-
ers’ association. They were return-
ing to York and failed to observe the
approach of an engine running light
with the result that the auto was
struck and Owens was hurled a dis-
tance of thirty feet, being dead when
picked up. Dr. Havner was thrown
about fifteen feet and sustained a
broken leg and other injuries, which
though serious, are not regarded as
| fatal. He was taken to the Hallam
hospital for treatment.
Edward E. Owens, the young man
who lost his life, lived with his moth-
er and family at State College. He
was a veteran of the world war, in
which he served as a lieutenant. In
addition to his mother he is survived
by three sisters and two brothers.
The remains were taken to State Col-
lege and from there to Tyrone where
burial was made on Tuesday.
DR. VAN VALIN HURT IN ACCIDENT
Dr. C. A. VanValin, of Unionville
and Bellefonte, was hurt in an auto
accident last Wednesday afternoon
while motoring to Eagles Mere with
his son. According to the doctor’s
story they were motoring along quite
a narrow stretch of roadway along
the lower side of which was a stone
wall some three or four feet in
height, with no guard rail. The road
was up grade and the doctor had his
foot on the accelerator and thinks
that in some way his coat sleeve
caught the spark lever and pulled it
up a little with the result that the car,
a five passenger Nash, shot suddenly
forward and a little to the left and
fearing they would run into the bank
the doctor’s son grabbed the wheel
and swung it to the right and quick
as a flash the car shot across the road,
between two trees and down over the
stone wall. It then rolled down an
| embankment some forty feet from
| where it left the road.
* The doctor had one of the bones in
his left hand broken and sustained a
i laceration on the head. His son sus-
| tained a cut and a few bruises but
| nothing serious. The left rear wheel
of the car was completely wrecked,
the radiator badly damaged, fenders
bent, windshield broken and top more
or less damaged, but the body of the
car had hardly a seratch on it.
MINOR ACCIDENTS
John M. Shugert and partv “cured
in an accident on Sunday evening in
which, fortunately, nobody was badly
| Injured but the two cars were badly
! damaged. Mr. Shugert with his son
| George and daughter Molly, and John
i Curtin, were down at the Country
club. They left there about 8:30
| o'clock and coming out to the main
| road they saw a car coming down the
| road at a fast clip. George Shugert
was at the wheel and he gave all the
warning he could to the automeobilists
but they didn’t slacken speed. The
| highway and slowed down, and when
| almost upon them the driver of the
| speeding car saw the Shugert car. He
‘ promptly put on both brakes in an
effort to stop but the momentum of
{the car was such that it promptly
| began to zigzag and as it was passing
the Shugert car it bumped into the
left side of it, crushing the running
| board and bending the fenders down
| onto the wheels.
The Shugert car was stopped and
| looking backward to see what had be-
| come of the other party Mr. Shugert
, saw the car turned upside down along-
| side the road. He and his party
| jumped out of their car and ran back
| to the wrecked one and by that time
{ the occupants were crawling out from
| beneath the ruins. There were two
young men and two young women,
“and the only one injured was one of
! the young women who had a cut on
| her wrist, sustained from flying glass
from the broken windshield.
| It was a State College party and the
: young men gave their names as Poor-
‘ man and Krebs. The driver admitted
te Mr. Shugert that the accident was
all his fault, that he had been talking
‘and not watching the road and when
"he saw his car so near he simply lost
| his head. He offered to do anything
‘he could to make amends, but Mr.
Shugert is disposed to let the men off
without paying him for the damage
to his car. Not only that, but he
brought the entire party to Bellefonte,
took the injured girl to a doctor and
thus did his part toward getting them
back to the College that night.
Paul King, of Valley View, met
with an accident on Sunday in which
he badly damaged his Ford car and
he ard another young man with him
sustained some bruises and a good
shaking up. While driving along
near Valley View he lost control of
the steering wheel with the result
that the car was not only ditched but
turned upside down. It was hauled
in to the Beatty garage for repairs.

| ——Wonder what has become of
| some of the big trout that inhabited
Spring creek between the bridge and
the falls all summer. The most no-
{table decrease in number is apparent
| right below the falls, and peculiar as
it may seem, they all happened to
migrate (if they did migrate) one
night last week. At least a large
number was in evidence below the
falls one day and the next they were
very scarce. Of course, Belle ontc
don’t have any fishermen who would
go in there at night and scoop out
the trout, so they must have migrated.
——The Wion Garage, of this place,
has just delivered to Joseph Diehl, of
Howard, a handsome Nash Sedan. The
car was driven through from Buffalo
on Tuesday with Mr. Wion, himself,
as pilot. He left Buffalo at eleven
o'clock and arrived in Howard at 4 a.
|m., Wednesday morning, having made
the run with less fatigue than any
long trip he had taken previously,
| which speaks volumes for the riding
| quality of the Nash. The car is both
| handsome and commodious. It is
| painted a cobalt blue and the perfect-
ly plain upholstering is in toupe
plush.
—The early huckleberry crop is
very small on most of the mountains
in Centre county this year. Down in
the eastern end of the county, where
bushels of them were gathered and
shipped in past years, comparatively
few have been offered for shipment
this year. On Bald Eagle mountain
they are so scarce that pickers hav
given up in despair. Whether “he
late berries will provide a better crop
remains to be seen. One reason for
| the scarcity is the few mountain fires
of the past few years, and the conse-
quent increase in the density of the
undergrowth.
Over one hundred members of
the Bellefonte Presbyterian churcen
this week received modestly printed
brochures containing a story of the
life work of Mrs. Eva McKean Hawes
wife of Dr. George Edward Hawes,
pastor of the Market square Presbyter-
ian church, Harrisburg, who passed
away on January 23rd, 1920. The
little booklet, which was printed and
distributed by the Market Square
church, contains a good picture of
the late Mrs. Hawes and in addition
to a brief history of her church activ-
ities, includes the various memoriams
adopted by the different societies with
which she had bean affiliated at vari-
ous periods of her life.
— The Philadelphia North Ameri-
can, that rabid prohibition organ
gave space to a long special from
Washington on Monday which con-
tained the candid admission that the
Eighteenth amendment was a farce.
The article in question admitted that
any man who had the cash could get
all the liquor he wanted at any time
and in most any place, even in hide-
bound District of Columbia. And the
national enforcement officer blames it
{all on the fact that he was given only
$4,500,000 with which to enforce the
Volstead act. While we are not con-
versant with conditions generally
throughout the country recent indica-
(tions show that there’s some of it
| floating around in this section of the
State, too; as evidenced by the num-
ber of old-timers seen within the
past week who evidently had gotten
"a snoutfull somewhere.

— The writer has always been
just a little bit skeptical as to the
potato wart disease and all the vari-
| ous other diseases and blights that
| scientists are unearthing from time
| to time, but we are now convinced re-
| garding the potato wart, at least, be-
cause of the fact that A. B. Steele,
. of Bellefonte, brought to this office
on Monday a good sized tuber which
! was literally covered with warts. The
potato came from his own garden and
"was one of two he found there. An
' examination of the potato through a
magnifying glass makes the warty
surface look like the hide of an ele-
phant, while some of the warts look
like festered sores. While the potato
inside looks not unlike any other po-
tato, for eating purposes we would
much prefer them without the warts,
the disease should receive the hearti-
est encouragement from the farmers
generally.
ee
— Just now, when harness making
is not so much in demand as it used
to be before the advent of the auto-
mobile, there are few calls for horse
equipment other than heavy work har-
ness for farm animals. Therefore,
the Hon. James Schofield cannot be
blamed for manifesting some surprise
a few weeks ago when Steve Mattis,
the Austrian, of Verona Hill, appear-
ed at his shop and ordered a fifty dol-
lar set of double driving harness for
that little team of Texas burros he
drives around the town. Of course
the Hon. Jim accepted the order then
assistant, to execute. The greatest
trouble they experienced was in se-
curing collars and hames small
enou h for the little animals, but they
finally got them and last Saturday
Mr. Mattis lifted his harness, as proud
in their possession as if he had gotten
an automobile. He recently secured
a small buggy, and with his new
buggy, new harness and Tex-
an burros he can drive around the
countryside like a man of easy money.

and anything that the State Depart- |
ment of Agriculture can do to combat
turned it over to Harry Ward, his |
Convict Gets Check for $11,000.
There is at present in the western
penitentiary at Rockview a prisoner
whose time will be up in September,
and naturally he has been looking for-
ward to his release with a great deal
of anticipation, but he was hardly
prepared for the surprise he received
last week when a letter reached him
containing a check for $11,000. The
check was his share of a legacy of
$33,000 left to the prisoner and his
two sisters by the will of a deceased
uncle.
The sisters live in Chicago and that
city was the boyhood home of the
prisoner and also the home of the de-
ceased uncle. The present inmate of
the penitentiary left home some years
ago and drifted into the western part
of Pennsylvania. There he commit-
ted the crime which landed him in the
penitentiary two years ago for an in-
determinate sentence of from two to
three years. He is well educated and
has been a model prisoner, so that he
will be discharged at the expiration of
his minimum sentence, which is next
month.
The one thing that is worrying the
prisoner now is how to keep from his
sisters in the future that he has serv-
ed time in the penitentiary. So far
he has reason to believe, according to
the story reaching the writer, that
they have no knowledge of his exact
whereabouts. They know he is in
Pennsylvania and have his old ad-
dress, but so far as known they do not
know that he strayed from the
straight and narrow path and is now
paying the penalty therefor. And it
is understood that he has declared his
intention of keeping the fact from
them, if possible.
The check for $11,000 will be held
by the prison authorities until the
man receives his discharge when it
will be turned over to him.
Bright Outlook for Italian Band.
The NuoVa Italia Banda will be
“the name of the band being organized
and vicinity. The name is taken from
the NuoVa Italia society, of which
Joe Carpeneto is president, and also of
which the band will really be an ad-
junct. Up to the present time thirty-
five members have been enrolled but
active practice will not begin until the
latter part of September or the first
of October.
The band has secured the services
of Prof. S. Reggio, who is now in
‘charge of the Renovo band, but he
| cannot come here permanently until
the expiration of his contract at Re-
i novo, which will be the latter part of
| September. Prof. Reggio came to
{ Bellefonte last Saturday and signed
the contract as leader and director of
the new NuoVa Italia Banda. Ac-
I cording to his fellow countrymen he
| held a prominent position as a musi-
cian: in his home country, being lead-
| er and director of the Third regiment
| militaire band. Since coming to this
country he has had charge of bands at
Olean, Brooklyn, and Rochester, N.
Y., and at Kane and Renovo, in this
' State.
Miss Mary Kline Showered by Pa-
triotic League.
The annual meeting of the Patriot-
ic League, held at the home of Mrs.
Robert Mills Beach, on Tuesday even-
ing, proved more of a social event
than a business meeting. Of course
the thirty-five members present got
rid of the little business they had to
transact first, which included the elec-
tion of officers for the ensuing year,
| as follows: President, Miss Eleanor
Weston; vice president, Miss Winifred
M. Gates; secretary,
Yeager; treasurer, Miss Nina Lamb.
After the business had been dispos-
led of Mrs. Beach had the girls all as-
semble in one room then called Miss
Mary Kline to come forward and as
she did so two of the girls carried into
the room a clothes basket filled to
overflowing with a miscellaneous col-
lection of useful gifts which were pre-
sented to Miss Kline in anticipation of
her marriage in the near future to
Dr. Jones, of Philadelphia. Natural-
ly the young lady was as pleased as
she was surprised and was profuse in
thanks to her co-workers in the
League for their kind remembrances.
A
