Two Years Ago Yesterday.
Two-years ago, yesterday, Belle-
fonte and every other community
throughout the United States and the
world was rejoicing over the declara-
tion of the armistice which ended the
at war. Thousands of Central
ennsylvania boys were in the fight-
ing line, giving the last hammer blows
to the Hun horde which had started
out in 1914 to conquer the world.
Herbert Bailey, an English writer,
who closely analyzed the part which
the American soldier played in the
suppression of the German menace,
more especially the Argonne Forest
drive .and he gave the American
troops.their proper place in history.
He said:
When the order came for fight-
ing to cease on November 11 all
the positions had been maintained
and the Fifth Division was knee-
deep in mud in the wilderness of
the Woevre forest. The Thirty-
second moved up to the right of
the Fifth Division on November
10, and advanced several kilome-
ters west of Brandeville that day
in a fog and was ready for a new
attack when the armistice was
signed.
The signing of the armistice
and the cessation of hostilities
came as a great surprise to the
American troops, despite all the
rumors of approaching peace.
The men in the line in many
place were more inclined to
think that the order to cease
firing at 11 in the morning of
November was a new form of
strategy.
Succeed they did after a
mighty struggle, reflecting noth-
ing but credit and glory on Amer-
ican arms, that lasted 47 days at
a total cost to the Americans
alone of 115,529, of whom 15,599
were killed. They had fought
607,212 Germans with a force of
631,405 Americans and 138,000
French; killed, wounded or taken
prisoners, 126,500 of the enemy,
penetrated forty-seven kilometers
into the German lines and liberat-
ed 1550 square kilometers of ter-
ritory for the French, with 150
villages and towns. In prisoners
they took 316 officers and 15,743
men, while 468 guns, 2864 ma-
chine guns and 177 trench mor-
tars fell into their hands.

MATTERN.—John F. Mattern, a
former well known merchant of War-'
riorsmark and who had a wide ac-':
quaintance throughout the western
end of Centre county, died on Sunday
evening at the home of his son, Lew- |
is Mattern, in Washington, D. C,, of a
complication of diseases following an
attack of pleurisy. He was a son of
Jacob and Susan Mattern and was
born at Franklinville on October 25th,
1841, hence was in his eightieth year.
His early life was spent on his fath-
er’s farm but when he grew to man-
hood he went into partnership with his
brother Jacob, in the mercantile busi-
ness at Warriorsmark where he re-
mained until his retirement about
twenty years ago. Since the death of
his wife thirteen years ago he has
lived with his only son, Lewis, profes-
sor in chemistry at the McKinley High
school in Washington. He also leaves
one brother and a sister, Jacob Mat-
tern, of Warriorsmark, and Mrs. Su-
san Gray, of State College. The re-
mains were taken to Warriorsmark
where funeral services were held in
the Methodist church, of which he was
a life-long member, after which bur-
ial was made in the Warriorsmark
cemetery.

HOSTERMAN.—Thomas William
Hosterman died at his home at Wood-
ward on November 3rd as the result
of a stroke of apoplexy sustained on
October 30th, aged 75 years, 9 months
and 18 days. His early life was spent
on the farm but thirty-four years ago
he moved to Coburn where he served as
postmaster for twenty years. Early
in 1919 he sold his properties at Co-
burn and moved to Woodward.
In September, 1863, he married Ra-
chael Vonada. The result of this un-
ion was sixteen children, nine of
whom preceded their father to the
grave. The widow and the following
sons and daughters survive: Mrs. Ida
Motz and Warren Hosterman, of
Woodward; Mrs. Edith Shaffer, of
Wolf’s Store; William, of Fiedler;
Mrs. Tome Krumrine, of Weikert;
Thomas, of Coburn, and Mrs. Mabel
Snyder, of Tower City. Funeral serv-
ices were conducted in the United
Evangelical church at Woodward on
Saturday afternoon by Rev. C. R. Sny-
der, after which burial was made at
Woodward.

LEGO.—William Thomas Lego died
at his home at Port Matilda on Octo-
ber 30th of pneumonia and blood poi-
soning following an illness of five
days. He was born at Bald Eagle and
was 56 years, 3 months and 18 days
old. He went to work for the Penn-
sylvania railroad company when a
young man and remained in its em-
ploy until his death, the past twenty-
two years being foreman on sub-divis-
ion No. 2. In 1891 he was united in
marriage to Mary L. Nearhoof, of
Discussing the positions of the | Fowler, who survives with two chil-
Americans when hostilities ceased,
Mr. Bailey points out that the Ger-
mang were in for a terrific walloping,
which they evidently appreciated,
when the curtain dropped two years
ago. He concludes with this state-
ment:
November 14 was the day se-
lected when the cream of the
American forces, in what would
have been the greatest drive of
the war, were to shatter the Ger-
mans in an attack through Lor-
raine and Alsace, and that day
would indeed have been a great
day in American history. Fight-
ing with a freshness that none
could equal, with an ardor that
only troops new to the warfare
know, with an intelligence that
is given to few, the Americans,
although their artillery, airplanes
and tanks were almost all French
and only the transport, equip-
ment, ammunition and rifles
were American, were the great
hopes of the Allies, the force
that was to swing the balance
against Germany. In saying
that that hope was more than ful-
filled, that the weight in the bal-
ance was indeed heavy and deci-
sive, we have expressed what
every impartial Englishman asso-
ciated with the American forces
in battle can emphatically affirm.
America did justice to her great-
ness. Her sons were the sons of
a virile and fruitful nation, and
those sons fought with a spirit, a
nerve and a power that saw the
end of the war and the defeat of
Germany.
So it is that Americans applaud
their splendid boys who rallied to the
colors in the cause of civilization and
paid tribute to them yesterday while
giving thanks to the God of battle for
showing America the way and direct-
ing the warriors of this country in
their final assault upon the entrench-
ed foe of liberty, righteousness and
. Justice. .

‘ Appropriate Marker Dedicated to
Memory of Solomon Dale.
| An interesting service was held in
! te Lutheran church at Boalsburg on
Sunday afternoon, November 7th.
The meeting was called to do honor te
the memory of Solomon Dale, who
was lost at the Battle of Spottsylva-
nia on the 12th of May, 1864, during
the Civil war, and to dedicate a mark-
er on the family plot, which had been
erected by the family of the young
soldier who had lost his life in the de-
fense of his country.
The program was in charge of
Clement Dale Esq., of Bellefonte, who
stated the object of the meeting and
gave a brief sketch of the life and
character of Solomon Dale. The
speaker read a letter which had been
written by his brother from the bat-
tlefield of Chancellorsville, dated May
4th, 1863, which letter had been care-
fully preserved during the long per-
iod which had intervened between the
time of that terrible conflict and the
present, a period of over fifty-seven
years. The letter gave an account of
the heavy losses sustained by the reg-
iment to which he belonged, the 148th
Pennsylvania volunteer infantry; of
the wounded, among whom were Col.
James A. Beaver and Lieut. Col.
George A. Fairlamb; of the killed,
among whom were Lieuts. Bible and
Stevenson. The reading of the letter
was listened to with the closest inter-
est, as many sentences were truly pa-
thetic in recounting the sorrowful
sights and the suffering during and
immediately following the first battle
in which the regiment was engaged.
Rev. W. P. Ard, pastor of the Luth-
eran church of Bellefonte; Rev. J. F.
Harkins, pastor of the Lutheran
church of State College; Rev. S. C.
Stover, pastor of the Reformed church
of Boalsburg, and Rev. George E.
Smith, pastor of the United Brethren
church of Bellefonte, each in turn de-
livered most excellent addresses. It
is impossible in this brief sketch of
the proceedings to give an account of
the many excellent things which were
said by the several speakers. All the
addresses breathed a spirit of patri-
otic devotion and loyalty to our coun-
try, and an appeal to the individual
American citizen of the present gen-
eration that they might live and so
conduct themselves as to emulate the
life and the conduct of the man whose
memory “We honor today.”
ent and from the beginning to the end
of the exercises rendered most excel-
lent music of a patriotic order. Mary
R. Dale sang a solo appropriate to the
occasion. At the conclusion of the ex-
ercises in the church, the audience ad-
journed to the cemetery immediately
adjoining the church where on the
Dale family plot they surrounded the
marker which was solemnly dedicated
to the memory of Solomon Dale. A.
A. Dale Esq., of Bellefonte, made the
dedicatory address, giving an account,
in brief, of the soldier’s life and the
‘ services he rendered to his country
and his country’s cause. Virginia
Dale placed a bouquet of beautiful
flowers at the face of the marker as
a tribute from one of the younger
generation, after which Rev. Stover
pronounced the benediction and the
audience dispersed feeling that it was
a profitable ‘meeting and a grateful
tribute to one who had led such a no-
ble life and paid such a sacrifice in the
service of his country. :
tian Dale and a member of this well-
known large family, who were born
and reared on the old Dale homestead
at Oak Hall. Four members of the
family enlisted as volunteers in the
service of their country during the
: Civil war, and Solomon Dale was
{ among the number. He was attending
i school at what is now known as the
Susquehanna University and had come
home for a short vacation. A call
came for 300,000 volunteers to fill up
the depleted ranks of the army and
on the 10th day of August, 1862, he
enlisted and left Boalsburg in a com-
pany consisting of 150 men, com-
manded by Capt. Robert McFarland,
which company afterwards became
Company G, of the 148th regiment, P.
V. I. He passed through the battles
of Chancellorsville, Gettysburg and
several other engagements in the lat-
ter part of 1863. When the Wilder-
ness campaign opened in 1864 he was
in a number of the severest battles of
that continuous struggle.
In the early morning of May 12th,
1864, a desperate charge was made
upon the enemy’s works.
battle was over Solomon Dale was
among the missing and all efforts to
find his body failed. He was doubtless
buried among the unknown, or was
burned in the fire which swept
through the woods, consuming so
ing upon the battlefield, wounded or
dead, and who could not get away,
and whose bodies could not be recov-
ered.
The marker erected in the Boals-
burg cemetery in honor of his memory
is of marble to conform with the other
stones on the Dale lot, and bears an
appropriate inscription.

the fact that he is well past the four

was twenty-five years ago, and we are
glad to say continues to enjoy good

Official Vote of Centre County.
Judge Henry C. Quigley, ex-pro-
thonotary D. R. Foreman and J.
Thomas Mitchell Esq., made the offi-
cial count of the vote cast at the elec-
tion on November 2nd in Centre coun-
ty last Thursday and the largest vote
was for President, a total of 13171.
This is just 4846 more votes than were
cast in 1916 when the total was 8325.
But the percentage was considerably
smaller, as the total registration in
1916 was less than eleven thousand
votes while for 1920 the registration
showed 10748 men and 10520 women,
or a total of 21268. Thus it will be
seen that 8097 voters remained away
from the polls, and the probability is
that the greatest number of these
were women. The official vote of the

CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE.
For the Prevention of Tuberculosis.
MERRY
CHRISTMAS
HY NEW YEA
»
HEALT
1920 CHRISTMAS SEAL.
Supreme efforts should be made to
prevent the killing of more than 10,-
000 persons by tuberculosis in Penn-
sylvania every year, in the opinion of
Governor Sproul and Gifford Pinchot,
who have accepted the chairmanships
of the State committee for the 1920
sale of Christmas seals and Health
bonds.
The Governor in accepting the place
as honorary chairman, wrote to the
Pennsylvania Tuberculosis society, a
citizen organization which conducts
the Seal sale annually, as follows:
“I have your favor of a few days
ago, inviting me to act as honorary
chairman of your State committee in
charge of the Christmas seal sale, and
hasten to advise you that I shall be
very glad indeed to serve you in that
or any other capacity that will aid in
your relentless battle against tuber-
culosis. No possible effort should be
spared in our efforts to stamp out a
disease of this character, so prevalent
7356 | among so many people.”
“Stop this flood of misery,” is the
ringing appeal of Mr. Pinchot, For-
estry Commissioner of Pennsylvania,
who, in accepting the place as State
seal chairman, wrote:
“The white plague is a terrible load
to carry. It kills at least 10,000 peo-
ple in Pennsylvania every year, and
for every death at least 10 people are
living broken and unhappy lives be-
cause of it. Like every other person
with a heart and a brain, I want to
help put a stop to this flood of mis-
ery. That is why I am more than
glad to help all I can to eliminate tu-
berculosis from our great State by
serving as chairman of the Christmas
seal State campaign committee.
“Every man, woman and child can
help in this great campaign against
the white plague by purchasing Christ-
mas seals and health bonds. I would
like to see the 1920 Christmas seal
sale the biggest kind of a success, be-
cause that is one of the best ways to
help stop the killing of our people by
this cruel, needless, and preventable
scourge.” 2
In our community the sale of Seals
should be unusually large this year as
seventy-five per cent. of the money
derived from the sale goes to the lo-
cal committee to be expended for edu-
cational purposes and for sufferers
from tuberculosis. The sum allowed
for educational purposes the past year
was expended in the health crusade
work in the public schools and that if
is an excellent aid in interesting chil-
dren in health-education has been rer-
ognized by both teachers and parents.
The scope of the crusade must be de-
termined by the amount of Seals sold
and since HEALTH is the best invest-
ment we can make for our children let:
us generously support this communi-
ty—welfare movement. .
The Tuberculosis committee of the
Woman’s club having the sale in
charge consists of Miss Helen Over-
ton, chairman; Mrs. John M. Shugert,
Misses Helene Williams, Kate Hoover,
Mary Linn and Elizabeth Meek. Seals
may be purchased for a cent apiece
and Health bonds for five, ten and
twenty dollars.

All preliminary arrangements have
been made by the Bellefonte Chapter
for the intensive drive for Red Cross
members on Sunday afternoon be-
tween the hours of two and four
o'clock. The town has been districted
and canvassers appointed for each dis-
trict, the districts having been made
small enough so that the work can
easily be done in two hours. It is
hoped that in this way the most of the
people in the town can be reached, and
those who cannot will be seen in the
future. The officers of the Bellefonte
Chapter are counting on the enroll-
ment this year to be sufficient to as-
sure the continuance of the service of
the community nurse, and to this end
they appeal for a generous response
to the canvassers. Endorsing the Red
Cross Edwin T. Meredith, Secretary
of Agriculture says:
“I have every confidence that the
American Red Cross in its approach-
ing annual membership roll call will
receive the hearty support of the
American people. Ey reason of its
splendid organization the Red Cross
has rendered services in the great
emergencies of both war and peace
without which suffering would have
multiplied incalculably. In its varied
activities, the generous spirit of the
nation has been translated into some
of the world’s noblest benefactions.
The need for the support of this great
organization has not passed. In these
days of readjustment, the calls for its
aid are more urgent than many real-
ize. We can manifest a true spirit of
helpfulness in no better way than by
responding to this annual membership
roll call.”
Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Red-
! ding, of Snow Shoe, have announced
| the engagement of their daughter,
Miss Mary, to Leo Henry Kelley, of
Snow Shoe.

—=Plans are being completed by
the War Department for preparing
the nation for instantaneous defense.
The first line will consist of the reg-
ular army of 300,000 troops; the sec-
ond line, of 435,000 officers and men
of the national guard. Most import-
ant of all is the appointment of 70,000
officers, and possibly 12,000 more, who
will command a vast reserve force
consisting of every eligible man of
draft age in the United States. The
country will be divided into nine mil-
itary districts, known as corps areas,
