Bellefonte, Pa., September 17, 1920.
Borough Expenses Seventy Years Ago
In these days when it costs in the
neighborhood of fifty thousand dol-
lars a year to conduct the affairs of
Bellefonte borough it is really inter-
esting to know that there was a time
when the entire cost was only fifteen
hundred dollars. But that was just
seventy years ago, and Bellefonte then
was rather insignificant in every way
to what it is now.
The auditors statement for the
borough of Bellefonte for the year
1920, as printed, occupied the space
of one full page of the “Watchman”
which is a remarkable contrast to the
statement published to the year 1849-
’50, which was copied from an old
copy of “The Democratic Whig,” pub-
lished in Bellefonte at that time by
J. K. Shoemaker, and sent to us this
week by Mr. George W. Rumberger,
of Unionville. Many of the names
contained in the statement are well
known among the older people of
Bellefonte. The statement follows:
AN ACCOUNT.

the

SMULLTON ITEMS.
Herbert Stover motored to Mill
Hall and Lock Haven a few days ago.
Quite a number of our citizens at-
tended Grange picnic Thursday of last
wee
Mr. and Mrs. George Smull enter-
tainkd an auto party Friday of last
week.
The threshers have been making it
lively in this neck-o’-the-woods for the
past week.
S. A. Walizer and father went to
Bellefonte Tuesday of last week on
legal business.
Harry Fehl, of Blair county, spent
several days at the home of his par-
ents in this place, last week.
Shem Hackenburg had the misfor-
tune of breaking the front spring of
his automobile on the way to the pic-
nic last week.
C. F. Winters is wearing high shoes
and smoking 5c. cigars since the ar-
rival of a boy boarder at his home
several days ago.
W. R. Bierly has proven his ability
as a photographer by the specimens
of his work; especially is this true of
his interior views.
S. N. Stover and family attended a
birthday party Saturday evening, giv-
en in honor of Mr. Stover’s sister,
Mrs. Clyde Waite, of Wolf’s Store.
It is a pity no newspaper is pub-
lished in this town, as there would be
plenty of news reporters. Some even
talk of things they know nothing
about.
What a surprise it would be to the
people of Centre county, and the resi-
dents of this town, if the real reason
were known by them why the Smull-
ton postoffice was ordered discontin-
ued. It would prove what a set of dir-
ty politicians can do.
C. L. Beck and family lately enter-
tained their daughter, Maude, and
children, and their son John and fam-
ily, all of Wilkes-Barre, at their home.
A regular family reunion was held at

Those present were Henry Beck and
family, Tylersville; Fred Slifer and
family, of Illinois; Mrs. Maude Leach
and children, J. M. Beck and family,
of Wilkes-Barre; James Harbaugh
and wife, Rebersburg; Mrs. William
Breon and children, of Millheim, and
Herbert H. Stover and family, of
Smullton. After partaking of a boun-
tiful repast, prepared by Miss Carrie
Beck, artist Stover took a picture of
the group. Whether such a gathering
‘can ever be held again is a question
hard to answer, because of the frailty
of man.
It must have been sheer luck
with Lloyd George during the war,
for every time he opens his mouth
now he puts his foot in it.

other municipality or incorporated dis-
trict, except as provided herein, and in

an amount sufficient to provide for, and
may include the amount of, the interest
and sinking-fund charges accruing and

pletion of the work for which said in-
debtedness shall have been incurred; and
