December Term of Court.
The regular term of December
court convened on Monday morning,
with Judge Henry C. Quigley presid-
ing. John Crago, of Philipsburg, was
appointed foreman of the grand jury
and just here it might be stated that
this august body established a record.
Eight bills of indictment were given
to them. They passed upon all of
them, found a true bill in each case,
examined the public buildings, sub-
mitted their report and were discharg-
ed by three o’clock the same day. *
One of the true bills found was
against William D. Hall, the convict
who escaped from the penitentiary
two years ago and shot an Altoona
policeman before he was recaptured.
After hearing the Commonwealth’s
evidence in the case when Hall was
called for trial his attorney, Mr. Hen-
derson, of Altoona, made a motion to
quash the indictment as the statute of
limitation prevents action after the
expiration of two years.
After going over the list and noting
the cases not ready for trial the case
of the Commonwealth vs. C. A. Cauf-
fiel, charged with skipping a board
bill at the Potter house in Philips-
burg, was taken up. The allegation
of the Commonwealth was that the
defendant had engaged boarding for
himself and others and left after pay-
ing only ten dollars on account. The
defendant admitted that he had gone
away as above stated, but that he had
confessed he had no money but would
pay as soon as he got some, and had
left personal effects of greater value |
than the bill. He was later arrested
and when he got the money to pay the
bill the prosecutor refused to accept
it, and also to return his personal ef-
fects. The jury returned a verdict of ;
not guilty but pay the costs and the
defendant moved for a new trial
which was promptly granted.
On Tuesday afternoon the case of |
N. E. Shaughnessy vs. The P. R. R. |
Co., was taken up, being an action in !
trespass to recover for an alleged in-
jury in a train wreck at Dix on the
Bald Eagle Valley railroad. The case |
was on trial until yesterday morning
when it was given to the jury by the |
court with instructions to find a ver- |
dict for the defendant. Mr. Shaugh- |
nessy was represented in the trial of |
the case by Spangler & Walker, of ,
Bellefonte, and John T. Lanahan, of ,
Wilkes-Barre, while John Blanchard
represented the railroad company. |

Farm Bureau Annual Meeting.
Preparations have been made for a |
big farmer’s day at the court house |
on December 23rd. This will be the
third annual meeting of the Centre
county farm bureau and the report of
the year’s work wil: be of interest to
every farmer in Centre county. As
there is no membership in this coun-
ty, every farmer is a member of the
farm bureau and has the privilege of
voting for the officers at the annual
meeting.
If the bureau is to serve you effi-
ciently attend this meeting and give
your suggestions as to how it can be
made a better and more effective or-
ganization. The morning program
begins at 10 o’clock and will include
election of officers for 1921, and the
county agent’s report of the work ac-
complished during the past year, as
well as discussion of the probable
program of work next year.
In the afternoon E. L. Nixon, ex-
tension plant pathologist, will give a
talk on potato improvement in Centre
county. There will be one or two oth-
er short talks but the program has
been arranged so that farmers from
other sections of the county will be
able to get home in good time.
Don’t forget your exhibits for the
corn, potato and apple show on the
same day and place. At present it
looks like a big show with a great
many exhibits and keen competition
in all classes. Centre has the goods,
so should prove it by making this a
big show. :
Perhaps you and your neighbors
have both claimed to be the champion
corn or potato raiser in your commu-
nity. Here is your chance to see
which can select the better exhibit.
Remember the winning exhibits will
be sent to the State farm products
show at Harrisburg. A winning ex-
hibit at the State show is certainly
worth considerable effort on the part
of any one. Send or bring all ex-
hibits to the Farm Bureau office.

We have a rather attractive line of
embossed Christmas cards which we

cards with enclosing envelopes to

ALEXANDER.—Mrs. Lillian Alli- Rev. Love is now on
son Alexander, widow of the late Dr.
John F. Alexander, of Centre Hall,
passed away at twelve o’clock Friday
night at the home of her sister, Mrs.
| Frank McCoy, in this place, following
almost a year’s illness.
Mrs. Alexander was a descendant of
pioneer Scotch-Irish stock, dating
back to George McCormick, the first
settler of Spring Mills, and Robert
McNitt, one of the first pioneers in
the Kishacoquillas valley. They took
an active part in the defense of what
was at that early date the frontier and
fought during the Revolutionary war.
Her grandfather, Archibald Allison
Jr., was one of the first purchasers
of the Penn’s lands in what is now
Potter township, and which were part
of what was known as the Manor of
Succoth. Mrs. Alexander possessed
many of the sturdy characteristics of
i her forbears.
She was a daughter of William and
Sarah MecNitt Allison and was born
at Potters Mills on September 28th,
1860, hence was 60 years, 2 months
and 12 days old. She was educated in
the public schools of Potter township
and later graduated at Elmira Col-
lege, Elmira, N. Y. Returning to
Potters Mills she ably assisted in the
care of the family home there until
her marriage in 1898 to Dr. John
Francis Alexander, of Centre Hall,
the ceremony taking place at the Alli-
son home and being performed by the
late Rev. Dr. Laurie, of Bellefonte.
Dr. and Mrs. Alexander made their
home in Centre Hall and during the
years of her residence in that place
she endeared herself to a large circle
of friends by her gentle womanliness,
warm hearted hospitality and upright
christian character. In her girlhood
days she united with the Presbyterian
church but after her marriage she had
her membership transferred to the
Reformed church, of which her hus-
band was a member. Her husband
passed away in 1906 and she lived in
Centre Hall until 1916 when she clos-
ed her home there and went to Potters

ALEY.—Samuel Aley, the well
known shoemaker of Marion town-
ship, passed away at his home in
Jacksonville on Friday of last week
following a year’s illness with sarco-
ma. He was a son of Samuel and
Mary Huff Aley and was born on
February 10th, 1839, making his age
81 years and 9 months. He served
during the Civil war and was an hon-
ored member of the G. A. R. Sixty-
two years of his life were spent in the
house in which he died last Friday.
He was married to Miss Nannie
Johnson, of Jacksonville, who survives
with five children: Edward and Ira
Aley, of Jacksonville; William, of Ni-
agara Falls; Mrs. Edward Leathers,
Renovo, and Mrs. Edward Smith, of
Lock Haven. He was a life-long
member of the Presbyterian church
and Dr. W. K. McKinney, of Belle-
fonte, officiated at the funeral which
was held on Monday, burial being
made in the Jacksonville cemetery.

ness, aged 75 years, 4 months and 2
days. Her maiden name was Tabitha
Baughman and she was born in Clear-
field county. Practically her married
life was spent in the vicinity of Un-
ionvillee. Her husband died seven
years ago but surviving her are one

SMALLWOOD. — Mrs. Robert
Smallwood died at her home at Pauls-
boro, N. J., on Sunday, following an
extended illness. She was the eldest
daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Wilson P.
Ard, of Woodward, Pa., and a sister
. of Major George P. Ard, of St. Louis,

illness.
For three years she devoted :
herself to his care and comfort until
he finally passed away a year ago.’
Last March she came to Bellefonte
| for a much needed rest but almost at
stricken with the dis--
once was
ease that finally caused her death.
most nine months she was ever cheer-
ful and thoughtful of all those upon’
whose care she was dependent, and
her one regret was that she was una-
ble to go to Spring Mills to assist in
caring for her brother William, who
has not been in good health for some
months.
A member of a family which added
largely to the history of Pennsvaliley
her immediate survivors are her sis-
ter, Mrs. Frank McCoy, of Bellefonte,
and two brothers, Hon. William M.

in the private cemetery of the Allison
family. Her carriers were her four |
nephews, John McCoy, of Bellefonte;
Charles and Frank Allison, of Toron-'
to, Can., and William Allison, of New
York city, assisted by John D. Meyer,
of Altoona, and Henry S. Linn, of
Bellefonte.

ROBINSON.—Samuel Robinson, for
twenty-five years a resident of Belle-
fonte, died at the Altoona hospital at
noon on Sunday as the result of an at-
tack of pneumonia. He was taken to
the hospital two weeks previous for
treatment for cancer of the stomach
but pneumonia developed, causing his
death.
He was born in Lowden county, Va.,
forty-seven years ago, coming to
Bellefonte at the age of twenty-two
years. He was a good workman, so-
ber and industrious and eventually
was given employment by John P.
Harris, as man of all work around his
Linn street home. He worked for Mr.
Harris twelve years, or until the Har-
ris home was closed. Early last year
he went to Altoona and got a job in
Gable’s department store where he
had worked ever since.
Sixteen or more years ago he mar-
ried Louisa Dunlap who survives with
one daughter, Catharine. The re-
mains were brought to Bellefonte on
Monday morning and taken to his late
home back of Beaver street, where
funeral services were held at two
o'clock on Tuesday afternoon by the
pastor of the A. M. E. church, burial
being made in the Union cemetery.

Interesting Sunday School Conference.
A large and representative number
of delegates attended the mid-year
conference of Sunday school workers
in Centre county held in the Lutheran
church in this place last Friday. The

devotional service conducted by Rev.
Drumm, of Centre Hall. The county
president, E. R. Hancock, introduced
as the first speaker Miss Emma G.
Lemen, the State primary superin-
tendent, who told of the work being
done in her division.
The next speaker was Mr. John C.
Silsley, State administrative superin-
tendent, who used the topic “Admin-
istration Dynamics” as the basis of a
very interesting talk on Sunday school
work. Among the many good points
“he made were the following: “Enthu-
siasm is our biggest asset. The child-
hood of our country demands our best.
Right form work is much more im-
portant than reform work. Time is
the essence, delay is criminal; we
should be the tithers of our time as’
well as tithers of our money. We are
just as big as we think; ‘I can do all
things’ is the expression of a winning
faith. Only those who finish are ac-
claimed the victors. Courage, patience ,
and well directed, sustained energy
are virtues conquering the world.” ,
At the conclusion of Mr. Silsley’s
talk the conference members adjourn- |
ed to the basement of the church!
where an appetizing lunch was served
by the ladies of the congregation.
At one o'clock p. m. the county ex-,
ecutive committee held a brief session
and decided that the next annual con-
vention be held at Millheim on June
7th and 8th, 1921. On motion the as-
{ sociation treasurer was autherized to
execute a loan of $200 to enable him
to pay the first quarterly installment
of the State pledge as well as a few |
other bills.
When the general session opened at
1:35 Mrs. R. S. Brouse was introduced
and gave a brief outline of the world’s
Sunday school convention held in To- ,
kyo, Japan, in October. The remain-
der of the afternoon was taken up by
Mr. Silsley in concluding his talk be-
gun at the morning session. The fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, First, that the 18000 officers,
teachers and pupils of the Sunday School
association of Centre county, through its
executive officers, in the Lutheran church,
Bellefonte, December 10th, petition the
Honorable Court of Centre county to re-
fuse all applications for license to sell in-
toxicating liquors in the coming year.
Second, That recognizing the sacredness
of our constitution and the obligation rest- |
ing upon all citizens to abide by and en-
force every law on the statute books of
our country, -the 18th amendment of the
constitution and the Volstead act includ-
ed, we hereby call upon all citizens, es-
pecially those elected to office in town,
county and State, whole heartedly to stand
back of the constitution and the spirit of
true patriotism without fear or favor, and
see that these laws are everywhere en-
forced.
Turn on the Lights and Make Hens
Lay More Eggs.
With eggs bringing a return of a
dollar a dozen in some parts of the
State, poultrymen should make every
effort towards a higher winter produc-
tion. Lengthening the hen’s feeding
day by the use of artificial illumina-
tion is not a new experiment, but is
one that has proved practical through
experience. Specialists at The Penn-
sylvania State College recommended
a “feeding day” of from twelve to
fourteen hours through the use of
electric lights in the poultry houses.
Too long a day is likely to force a
spring moult. Morning light seems to
give the best results. Proper feeding
is essential.

Answers to Health School Questions.
Question 1—How is Rabies
tracted ?
Answer—By the saliva of a rabid
animal coming in contact with an
open wound, usually by the bite of a
rabid animal.
Question 2—How should a dog bite
be treated ?
Answer—The wound should be en-
larged, made to bleed freely, washed
out well and cauterized.
Question 3—What should be done
with a dog suspected of Rabies?
Answer—The dog should be killed,
his head should be packed in ice and
sent to the nearest diagnostic labor-
atory.
The next lesson is entitled “The
Leak.” The use of antitoxin for diph-
theria has very greatly reduced the
death rate from that disease. It is
possible to go still further and by the
use of “Toxin-Antitoxin” to eliminate
diphtheria entirely.

Penitentiary Inmates
ture.
State College, Pa., Dec. 15.—More
than three hundred prisoners at the
western penitentiary at Rockview,
only a few miles from the college, oc-
cupy some of their time in studying
scientific farming by correspondence
with the agricultural school at The
Pennsylvania State College.
According to John Francies, the
warden at the penitentiary, and Prof.
T. I. Mairs, who has charge of this ag-
ricultural instruction, the inmates
there have taken a greater interest in
the work in the last few months than
ever before. Over one hundred of the
men _ eagerly study one lesson after
another, and cases have been reported
where some of these upon their re-
lease have settled down on farms in
various parts of the country. This
co-operative instruction was started
only a few years ago and is now more
active than ever. Professor Mairs on
a recent visit to the penitentiary
spoke to many of the men on the ad-
vantages to be secured through such
study of agriculture, and enrolled an
additional number. The lessons are
supplied without expense to the pris-
oners or the State, as they are to any
one in Pennsylvania who desires tc
specialize on any agiicultural subject.

ORVISTON.
George Hahn is back once more. He
is still feeling the effects of his injury
and sports crutches. He was in the
Lock Haven hospital over three weeks.
Charles Lucas developed an acute
attack of appendicitis on Sunday and
was rushed to the Lock Haven hos-
pital for an operation. His condition
is considered serious. His foster
brother, Wilbur, is also quite ill in the
same hospital.
James Kephart, the baby son of Mr.
and Mrs. Mitchell Kephart, fell from
the table Sunday and cut his mouth
and tongue badly, also knocking out
a few of his teeth. He was taken by
auto to the Lock Haven hospital,
where several stitches were put in his
tongue. He is much better.
Francis Dullin is back from a visit
to Mrs. Dullin and the little daugh-
ters. Mrs. Dullin has been caring for
the children of a deceased sister, at
Westport, for some time, but is wait-
ing until the whooping cough abates
before bringing the Dullin children to
Orviston, and we are hoping it will be
soon, as she is a general favorite.
Whooping cough still hangs on well,
the latest victims being the two baby
Study Agricul-
! daughters of Hensyl Young, Dorothea
and Helen, and their little brother
Harvey. Mildred and Beatrice Croll
and Eva Estright are siill whooping
it up, but are on the mend, except lit-
tle Eva, is really very ill, suffering
with a slight hemorrhage Sunday.
Burdine Butler, who has been an
almost life-long resident of Centre
county, died December 12th, at the
residence of his son, James Butler, of
Romola. Deceased was about 87
years old, and is survived by the fol-
lowing children: Mrs. Alice Chap-
man, of Lock Haven; Mrs. Carrie
Krape, of Howard; John Butler, of
Lock Haven, and William, Samuel and
James, of Romola. Mr. Butler also
leaves a large number of grand-chil-
dren, some of whom reside in Orvis-
ton. The family has the heartfelt
sympathy of their many friends.

Artificial Wool.
The artificial wool which has been
under test at Leeds (Eng.) university
is produced from cotton waste, its
basis being cellulose acetate. It is
claimed that the product is an even
better insulator against heat and cold
fully, and that it will wear well. In
the experiments made, it has been sat-
isfactorily converted into fabrics.
Equal parts of artificial wool and
natural wool gave a cloth resembling
tweed, and the head of the university's
textile department has suggested that
this should be useful for men or wo-
men fancying homespun effects in
clothing. Cheapness and pqssible
wearing qualities constitute the special
appeal of the material. Its defects are
said to include inelasticity and lia-
bility to break, and these unfit it for
yarns of the worsted type, requiring a
combing length of two inches or more,
though it may serve well for yarn and
cloth where short fibers are suitable.
New Aircraft Rises Vertically.
Stimulated by recent offers of large
money prizes a number of French aero-
nautical engireers are busy with the
construction of vertically rising, heav-
jer-than-air machines. The largest of
these is a helicopter, characterized by
its unusually large size and substan-
tial construction, says Popular Me-
chanics Magazine. The wings resem-
ble in plain the leaves of a four-leaf
clover, and are carried on metal tubes
which radiate from a central upright.
This upright is mounted on the mid-
dle of the metal fuselage and is re-
volved by a nine-cylinder radial en-
gine.
Had a Home-Made Lock.
A few years ago we were enjoying a

vintage. This little car had been
built originally without a windshield;
later we had improvised one, using a
bent wood frame. One day while I
was waiting for my wife another mo-
torist walked up to me and said:

To John B. Derstine, Respondent above
named :
Please take notice that an application
for a divorce has been made in the above
cause, upon the allegation that you have
wilfully and maliciously and without rea-
sonable cause deserted the Libellant, and
absented yourself from her habitation for
and during the term or space of two years
and upwards. By reason of your default in
not entering an appearance and not filing an
answer the case has been referred to me as
Master. I have fixed Monday, the 10th day
of January, A. D. 1921, at ten o'clock A. M.
as the time and my offices in the Masonic
Temple Bldg., North ward, Bellefonte Bor-
ough, Centre county, Penna. as the place
for taking testimony in the cause, when
and where you may attend.
