Richard as He Is.
Jane Brown, of Philadelphia, went
up to Harrisburg last week and took
a good look at the members of the
Legislature as they were assembled in
the legislative halls grinding out laws
for us common people to observe and
her few impressions of some of the
members appeared as the leading ar-
ticle in the magazine section of the
Philadelphia Record on Sunday. Some
how or other she missed the honorable
Member from Centre county but did
not overlook the representative from
Clinton county, Hon. Richard S.
Quigley, a brother of Judge Henry C.
Quigley, of Bellefonte, on whom she
had the following observations:
Over there in the end seat is a pro-
file that interests you. You are im-
pressed with the fact that the man
could think brilliantly if he took the
trouble. You wonder why D. W. Grif-
fith hasn’t seen the profile and engag-
ed it at some terrible figure a week.
Later the All Wise One, who still
sticks valiantly by your side, tells you
the profile belongs to Richard S. Quig-
ley, of Clinton county, “the only man
in the House with an outdoor tan.”
But, unique as it may be to have an
outdoor tan in the House of Represen-
tatives, there is something else which
puts Quigley on the personality list.
He is a commuter from Florida.
Three times this winter has he made
the trip from the land of palm trees
and scanty bathing suits to the capital
of Pennsylvania. Thus with Florida
in the back of his mind most of the
time he can be forgiven for looking a
trifle bored with Harrisburg.
“He’s O. K.,” you are told. “A nut
on Florida, motor cars and forestry.”
Later Quigley admits the charge of
being a “nut” on the three aforemen-
tioned articles. He is chairman of the
forestry committee of the House, is a
member of the Public Roads commit-
tee and of the Game committee, all of
which seems to prove that he carries
at least two of his hobbies up to the
Legislature with ‘him.
Under a veneer of lazy ease Quig-
ley gives the impression of great
strength of mind. He might be Gover-
nor some day—if he took the trouble
to want it enough. However, there’s
no use setting the type for the ballots
because he would probably consider
the whole thing too much of an effort
and would insist upon moving the cap-
itol, to Miami. .

Circus Day.
What is there about a circus that
thrills the blood of a healthy person?
What is it that makes you restless
and stand up on your toes when you
hear the band coming up the street
playing that music with a swing and
vigor only heard in a circus band?
You say that circuses are all alike and
when you have seen one you have seen
them all, but still you walk fast—or
even run—right in the heat of the day
in order not to miss one bit of the
fascinating street parade. Why do
you do it? Think it over. Then you
will go to the show “just to take the
children” or possibly because your girl
insisted on going and you did not wish
to displease her.
It’s all right to alibi yourself, al-
most everybody has done the same
time and time again. Let’s all be hu-
man when the Walter L. Main Fash-
ion Plate Shows are in Bellefonte and
have a good time. Good circuses do
not come often and they are not ex-!
pensive. So meet us in front of the
elephants when the Walter L. Main
shows are here on Monday, May 9th,
and we will throw trouble to the winds
and peanuts to the elephants.
Children’s Week in Bellefonte.
The fourth annual observance of

sociation, and promoted in this State

We have all heard the stories that
vandal tongues have told of the sac-
riligeous treatment of America’s im-
mortals in Europe. It seems that in
every phase of the war there were
those who found little time to help
but much to cause alarm and anguish
to those who did. The most heartless
tales were told of the hap-hazzard
manner with which our fallen boys
were buried on foreign soil, without
proper service or careful identifica-
tion.
We had faith in our government.
Faith to know that the right thing
would be done because right thinking '
men were at the helm and they always
know that another’s boy is just as
dear to that other as their own is to
them. Look at the picture of the
beautiful cemetery above where your
son may be sleeping with his fellow |
comrades today and then visualize
your home cemetery. They are in-
comparable today and a hundred years
from today yours may not be found

. one of the best known residents of Or-
viston, died quite suddenly on Thurs-
! day evening of last week. For some
time past he had been suffering with
I 'an affection of the heart which caused |
his family and friends some concern.
' Being of an industrious nature, how-
ever, he kept at work and on Thurs-
day morning hauled a load of coal to
a neighbor’s home. He then went
home and told his wife he was not
feeling well. She gave him some
medicine and he went outdoors. A
few minutes later his son Roy went
out and found his father unconscious.
He was carried into the house but
never rallied, passing away about
5:30 o’clock in the evening.
Deceased was born on April 4th,
1873, making his age 47 years, 11
months and 26 days. He was married
twice, the first Mrs. Lomison. dying
left four children; Paul, Earl, Marie
and Mrs. Arthur Strunk, the latter of
Howard. His second wife was Mrs.
' children, Roy, Emma, Dorothy
' Richard. He also leaves one grand-
' child and a step-daughter.

BURRIS.—Mrs. Sarah Stover Bur-
ris, widow of John Calvin Burris,
died at her home at Axe Mann last
Friday following several month’s ill-
ness with chronic nephritis. She was
a daughter of Uriah and Sara Houser
Stover and was born in Spring town-
ship on December 21st, 1858, making
her age 62 years, 3 months and 10
days. She had been a resident of
Axe Mann for riany years. Her hus-
band, who was a lineman in the em-
ploy of the Bell Telephone company
of Pennsylvania, was electrocuted
while making repairs at State College
on October 22nd, 1914, but surviving
her are nine children: Mrs. Arthur
Sunday, of Akron, Ohio; Samuel Bur-
ris, of Spring township; Mrs. William
Shutt, of Bellefonte; William, in Read-
ing; Mrs. George Kuhn and Mrs. Syl-
, vester Young, of Akron, Ohio; Harry,

charge of this government and that of
France.
So persistent and careful has our
country been in its search for all of its
heroes that the list of missing has
been materially reduced. Every
square foot of the battlefields: of
France are being turned up. Only re-
cently 178 new bodies have been un-
covered and of them 132 have been
positively identified. It is a stupen-
dous work, but it was going on and is
continuing all the while fools or
knaves on this side were prating of |
neglect.
Massachusetts sent a special com-
mission to France to view the activi-
ties of the Graves Registration Serv-
ice, and an excerpt from its report has
been made public by the Quartermas-
ter Corps, as follows:
“Our inquiry and investigation ap-
pear to justify the claims of the de-
partment that every effort has been
made ‘to do the business part accu-
rately, and after that to bestow the
honors due to the heroic dead. The
Commission, standing with devoted
American officers and civilians in
charge of the work, and in the pres-
ence of a thousand receptacles of the
dust that was the living wall against
which the Hun raged in vain, express-
ed their admiration of the devoted
work of the department, and their
perfect satisfaction of it.”
Louis J. Cohen, representative of
the Jewish Welfare Board in France
for the purpose of checking and pho-
tographing the graves of the Jewish
soldier dead in the American army,
has written a letter in which he says:
“I feel that the American public
has every reason to be proud of the
excellent care bestowed upon the rest-
ing place of their dead. Whether an
isolated grave, occupying a part of a
communal or military cemetery, or a
national American cemetery, the white
spotless grave markers stand out
most prominently, symbolic with the
flag that flies over them. It has also
been my privilege to meet a great
number of relatives of our dead, in
the cemeteries visited by me at that
time. Their expression on seeing the
continual care in which the cemetery
is kept, must be gratifying to those
entrusted with the care.”
Notice to Cemetery Lot Owners.
The board of managers of the Belle-
fonte Union cemetery have decided to
assume the responsibility of the care
of lots for the comig season and will
be responsible to the owners for the
proper care of all lots turned over to
| them. The work will be done under
direct supervision of the management
and lot owners are assured that their
| lots will be kept in proper condition.
The season this year is fully one
month earlier than usual and will con-
sequently require earlier and more
frequent cutting of grass. A special
effort is being made to beautify the
cemetery and put it in first class con-
dition and the board of managers
makes a special appeal to all lot own-
ers to arrange promptly for the sea-
son’s care of their lots.
The price for this season’s care of a
full lot is $4.00 and $2.50 for a half
lot. Please notify the secretary at
once if you desire your lot taken care
of by the association and enclose the
proper amount of money for the care
of your lot.

Snails and Screws.
Nearly all inventions have been sug-
gested by natural objects.
Fremont, of the French School nf
Mines, points out an interesting ex-
ample in the case of the screw, the
fundamental idea of which, he be-
lieves, was suggested to primitive
man by the spiral shape of the edible
snail.
It was not the shape of the shell
that suggested the screw, but the
spiral motion which it is necessary to
give to the body of the snail in order
to withdraw it from the shell.
at once showed that an object of a
screw shape embedded in a solid pow-
erfuly resisted attempts to withdraw
it by a straight pull.
The hint was enough, and the
screw became one of the earliest of
man’s inventions.
Home of Giant Creatures.
The giant rat of the Solomon islands
is a remarkable animal—a great, fierce
creature, much bigger than a rabbit,
and causing endless mischief to
plantations and stores. Another ani-
mal giant is a bull-frog, seldom
found less than two and a half to
three pounds in weight, and with a
croak as mighty in volume as size.
Another giant is an oyster, a tough
but still edible molluse, that covers
a large-size dinner plate. One is
quite enough for a meal, and it is
eaten with a knife and fork, like a
steak.
Animals are not plentiful, but fish
and birds abound in great varieties.
There are many kinds of pigeons, in-
ciuding one of great beauty of plumage |
with a long tail, and unknown in any
other part of the world.
Have Object in Thrift.
If you are thrifty you will thrive.
You will lose some friends you will
be better off without, and you will
gain a few that will help you play the
game. Make your ideals big enough
to make them worth striving for.
When they are big encugh to let oth-
ers know that you are after more than
the ordinary they will wag their heads,
and you will dig in and show them.
You are never up to your best until
you are going the limit. The very ne-
cessity of the case drives you to more
determined effort, and the effort calls
forth ability neither you nor your
friends ever dreamed you had. And
the best part of it all is that every
one can start the thing.—Grit,
