Every Continent Sends Students to
Penn State.
Every continent in the world is rep-
resented by one or more students at
The Pennsylvania State College, ac-
cording to an announcement by A. H.
Espenshade the registrar. Seven na-
tionalities in addition to the over-
whelming majority of Pennsylvania
nativity make up the 3000 student
body, the most diversified ever enroll-
ed at the college. Europe is repre-
sented by one nch girl, Asia by
four Chinese boys, Africa by one Li-
berian, South America by a native of
Venezuela, North America by one Ca-
nadian and 2980 children of Uncle
Sam. Six from Porto Rico and one
from the Philippine Islands complete
the college enrollment.
The United States is represented
from Maine to California, and Alaba-
ma to Minnesota, by 130 students
from twenty-one States outside of
Pennsylvania, most of them coming
great distances to pursue courses of
study for which the college is noted.
This world-wide representation is
found entirely among students of the
upper classes, as only the children of
Pennsylvania taxpayers compose the
newer classes. Crowded conditions
made it necessary to refuse admit-
tance this year to all applicants not
residing in Pennsylvania.
750,000 Farmers Belong to Grange.
Membership in the National Grange
stands at approximately 750,000, S.
J. Lowell, of Fredonia, N. Y., Master
of the Grange, reports. “The first
Grange was organized on April 15th,
1868, in Fredonia, N. Y.,” says the
report.
“It is a secret order, similar to all
secret orders in many respects, with
a ritual surpassed by none. It is non-
sectarian and non-political and is de-
voted wholly to agriculture and agri-
cultural pursuits.
“The Grange is now organized in
thirty-three States, which are chiefly
in the north, as many of the southern
States have no Granges. The largest
Grange State is New York, which has
a membership of 128,000.
“A great deal of co-operative work
is done. Insurance of farmers’ build-
ings is probably the greatest financial
enterprise. The amount carried in the
insurance department runs into the
hundreds of millions.”

Winter Precautions About Autos.
Motorists need not be quick about
putting their cars in storage this
year; in fact, they will get plenty of
use from them if they don’t store them
away, for there are many indications
that the approaching winter will be a
short and mild one.
In noting these facts, the United
States Tire company points out that
one nice thing about motoring in win-
ter is that wear on tires is less in cold
weather than in the hot summer
HOODS SARSAPARILLA.
Bad Blood

Great Majority of People. t
Whether in scrofula, sores, boils,
and eruptions; or as rheumatism with
agonizing pains and aches in limbs, |
joints or muscles; as catarrh with its |
disagreeable inflammation and dis-
charge; in disturbed digestion, or
dragging down debility and tired feel-
ing,—it is corrected b
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, that most eco-
nomical and reliable blood remedy and
building-up tonic. Thousands use this
medicine and praise it for wonderful
relief. Made from the most valuable
remedies that physicians know, and
unparalleled in character,

months. Heat is the worst enemy of
rubber. If eold weather lasted all the
year round, tire mileage records would
increase amazingly.
If you are going to put your car
away, in spite of the prospect of con-
siderable opportunity for its use, here
are some things to do with regard to
the tires if you want to find them in
good shape next spring:
1. Wash the tires carefully on out-
side to remove oil and grease.
2. Remove tires from the wheels
and wrap them up in paper or cloth.
3. Store in a cold, dry place, away
from daylight. *
4, If tires are left on the car, jack
up the car, deflate the tires and wrap
them in covers.
5. Don’t let car stand on tires all
winter—to do so means a new set of
tires in the spring.

Act Quickly

Act quickly in time of danger.
In time of kidney danger, Doan’s
Kidney Pills are most effective.
Plenty of Bellefonte evidence of
their worth.
Mrs. Elmer Yerger, 306 N. Beaver
St., Bellefonte, says: “About ten
years ago I had kidney trouble in its
worst form. My back was so weak
I could hardly get around. My kid-
neys acted very irregularly and I was
in constant misery. Dropsical swell-
ings set in. I tried different remedies,
but received no benefit. Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills were recommended to me
and I at once began their use. In a
few days, the trouble was relieved and
I continued their use for about three
months. They entirely removed the
distressing kidney disorders. My back
was strengthened and I had no fur-
ther trouble with my kidneys. I think
Doan’s is the best kidney medicine to
be had.” (Statement given April 22,
1914).
On October 18, 1918, Mrs. Yerger
said: “It is a pleasure and a great
privilege for me to again speak a good
word for Doan’s Kidney Pills. Oth-
ers in the family have since had the
same good results from Doan’s as I
had. I confirm all I said in my for-
mer statement.”

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
During all the years the Ford Model T One Ton Truck has been on the market,
"we have never had one complaint of rear axle trouble. We have had no complaints
of motor trouble. As the motor and the rear axle are the vital fundamentals in a
motor truck, we have the right to conclude that the Ford One Ton Truck has not only
met the demands of business, but has done so in a satisfactory and economic way.
There is no other evidence so convincing as that which comes from long practical ex-
perience. Ford One Ton Trucks are serving along all industrial and commercial
lines. You will find them everywhere, If these statements were not facts, the demand
for the Ford One Ton Truck would not be as large as it is, because people are not
buying trucks which do not give service. Coupled with the dependability of the Ford
