Officer’s Club House Formally Opened
on Boal Estate.
The battle of the Marne, where
Pennsylvania’s soldiers got their bap-
tism of shot and shell on French soil,
and the campaign of the Argonne
were fought over in spirit, and the
friendships established in France re-
newed and intensified at Boalsburg
last Saturday when in the neighbor-
hood of two score well known officers
of the old Twenty-eighth division
gathered on the estate of Col. Theo-
dore Davis Boal at the formal open-
ing of the club house erected and ded-
icated to the officers of the 28th divis-
ion A. E. F.
Prominent among the officers pres-
ent were Major General William G.
Price Jr., Major General George C.
Rickards, General Shannon, General
Asher Miner, General Coulter and
Colonel David J. Davis.
The organization was first formed
in France, and its primary object is
to keep alive and perpetuate the
friendships formed by these officers
overseas. One year ago the club met
as the guests of Colonel Boal, and ar-
rangements were then made for per-
manent incorporation. Those heading
the club are: President, Major Gen-
eral W. G. Price Jr.; secretary-treas-
urer, Colonel Davis, who is also the
head of the American Legion of Penn-
sylvania. The honorary presidents are
General C. M. Clement, General C. H.
Muir and General W. H. Hay, these
three having been in command of the
division. The chiefs of staff of the di-
vision are the honorary vice presi-
dents.
The club house is situated on the
estate of Colonel Boal, and is his gift
to the men with whom he was asso-
ciated during the war. It is a beauti-
ful building, and is complete in every
respect; it is just like a typical coun-
try club, with sleeping accommoda-
tions, dining room, swimming pool,
and in the mountains near a rifle
range and spacious hunting grounds.
The building itself is also the reposi-
tory for the splendid collection of war
relics donated to the Twenty-eighth
division by the French government.
Activities in connection with the
opening of the building were contin-
ued on Sunday ending in the afternoon
with a concert by the Clearfield Amer-
ican Legion band. ’
OLD BOAL TROOPERS ORGANIZE.
A number of the members of the
original Boal troop who served in
France held a meeting recently and
decided to organize the Boal club.
Temporary officers were elected as
follows: President, J. Harris Holmes,
State College; vice president, B. M.
Jacobs, Clearfield; secretary, J. F.
Harvey, State College; treasurer, Har-
ry R. Mingle, State College; board of
directors, Chas. W. Reed, Milroy; Wil-
lard Barrett, Clearfield, and John Say-
lor, Bellefonte. It is the hope of the
members to erect a club house on the
Boal estate at Boalsburg, where they
have secured a life-time lease on
ground for the same.
Handsome New Home Ready for Ded-
ication.
The $100,000 addition to the Meth-
odist Home for the Aged at Tyrone
has been completed and will be dedi-
cated by Bishop W. F. McDowell on
Tuesday, June twenty-first. It will
provide accommodation for forty addi-
tional guests, and is so constructed
that further additions can be made at
any time at much less expense. The
new construction is fire proof and in-
cludes an infirmary, two sun-parlors,
heating plant, laundry, refrigerating
plant, cold storage, elevator and large
dining room.
The Methodist home is located in
the most desirable residential section
of Tyrone, fronting on two main
streets, has spacious grounds and
porches, and can be enlarged from
time to time as conditions warrant.
The new addition was made necessary
by the pressing demands for accommo-
dations for aged people from every
part of Central Pennsylvania, and
there is still a waiting list larger than
the present membership of the Home.
A superintendent, matron, and resi-
dent nurse, are employed regularly to
to look after every want of the guests,
and Methodism of the interior of the
State can be congratulated that anoth-
er forward step of such importance
has been undertaken.
LaFrance Pumper Exhibition.
The Bellefonte fire department has
been advised that a delegation of the
Hope Fire company of Philipsburg
will bring their LaFrance triple com-
bination pumper to Bellefonte tomor-
row (Saturday) for the purpose of
giving a demonstration of its work.
They are expected to arrive in Belle-
fonte some time between two and
three o'clock and the demonstration
will probably take place shortly after-
wards, probably on Water street.

FITZGERALD.—William Tennyson |
Fitzgerald, for many years a resident
of Bellefonte, passed away at five
o'clock last Saturday evening at the
home of his sister-in-law in Williams-
port. He had been a sufferer for some
years with an affection of the heart
and although he had been confined to
his room for several months his con-
dition last Saturday morning was no
worse than usual. He ate a hearty
dinner but was taken ill during the
afternoon and passed away at the hour
above mentioned.
Mr. Fitzgerald was a son of John
and Emily Tennyson Fitzgerald and
was born in New York city about sev-
enty-nine years ago. His boyhood was
spent in that piace but when he grew
to manhood he came to Pennsylvania
and located in Williamsport. There
he learned the trade of a blacksmith
and became quite expert in the hand-
ling of steel. While the exact date of
his coming to Bellefonte could not be
ascertained it was upwards of forty
years ago, the inducement being to ac-
cept a job at the old nail works which
at that time were in the height of
their success. When that plant was
shut down he remained here and for
years was blacksmith at the old
Bellefonte furnace.
Mr. Fitzgerald served during the
Civil war as a member of the valiant
45th regiment and had a record to
which any man could point with pride.
He was a member of Gregg Post, No.
95 G. A. R., of Bellefonte. In poli-
tics he was an ardent Republican but
was content to support his party with-
out seeking preferment for himself.
An interesting bit of personal his-
tory might be given of Mr. Fitzgerald
which is perhaps not generally known.
As noted above his middle name was
Tennyson, and he was directly con-
nected with the family of Lord Alfred
Tennyson, the poet laureate of Eng-
land, his mother being a sister of the
famous poet. It was doubtless
through this family lineage that Mr.
Fitzgerald inherited his poetic strain,
as he depicted very many phases of
life in poetical w¥itings, many of
which were published in the “Watch-
man.” :
Mr. Fitzgerald was twice married
his first wife dying when her little
son Harry was quite young. Later he
married Miss Isabella Kase, of Wil-
liamsport, and they had one child,
Miss Sallie, now living &a Williams-
port, while Harry makes his home in
Columbus, Ohio. The second Mrs.
Fitzgerald died in May, 1916, and just
a year ago Mr. Fitzgerald and daugh-
ter moved from Bellefonte to Wil-
liamsport.
The remains were brought to Belle-
fonte on the 3:10 p. m. train on Tues-
day afternoon and taken direct to the
Union cemetery for burial, the servic-
es at the grave being in charge of
Rev. M. DePue Maynard.

HASSINGER.—Alfred D. Hassing-
er, an old ‘soldier of the Civil war, died
at his home at Pleasant View last
Thursday morning of general debili-
ty. He was born at Washington Fur-
nace on July 15th, 1840, hence was al-
most eighty-one years old. The ear-
ly years of his life were spent at
Washington Furnace but when the
war broke out he enlisted in Company
B, Third Pennsylvania cavalry, serv-
ing throughout the war. Returning
home he went to work at the old
Washington furnace and worked there
until it closed down. He then moved
to this locality and for many years
had been employed at the American
Lime & Stone company plant.
Mrs. Hassinger died a number of
years ago but surviving him are the
following children: William, Harry
P., George, Charles and Robert, all of
Bellefonte; Herbert, of Harrisburg,
and Mrs. William Bloom, at home. He
also leaves one sister, Mrs. William
Ketten, of Bellwood, and two half-
brothers, Daniel Snyder, of Bellefonte,
and William Snyder, of Bellwood.
Funeral services were held at his
late home at two o’clock on Sunday
afternoon by Rev. R. O. Steely, of the
United Evangelical church. Burial in
the Union cemetery, Bellefonte, was
under the auspices of Gregg Post, G.
A. R., of which he was a member.

LIPTON.—Mrs., Lucy M. Lipton,
widow of the late J. H. Lipton, passed
away at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. W. H. Owens, in Columbus, Neb.,
on May 25th, of general debility. Her
maiden name was Lucy Moore David-
son and she was born in Bald Eagle
valley, Centre county, on July 13th,
1833, hence was almost eighty-eight
years old. She was married to J. H.
Lipton, of Howard township, in Feb-
ruary, 1852. For twenty-three years
they lived in Centre county but in
1875 moved to Abilene, Kan., where
they spent two years then located in
Osborne, that State, but after living
there five years moved to Downs,
Kan., and went into the hotel busi-
ness, conducting the Lipton House,
which was headquarters for railroad
men in that section. Mr. Lipton died
in 1912 but Mrs. Lipton continued to
make Downs her home until less than
a year ago. Her surviving children
are W. F. Lipton, of Hoxie, Kan.;
James and George, of Downs; Mrs.
Owens, of Columbus, Neb., and Mrs.
June Vallette, of Beloit, Kan. Burial
was made at Downs, Kan., on May
27th.

KUHN.—Miss Anna Kuhn, a native
of Centre county, died at her home
two miles south of Alexandria, Hunt-
ingdon county, last Friday, as the re-
sult of a stroke of paralysis sustained
the day previous. She was sixty-nine
years old and formerly lived at Shin-
gletown, this county. One brother
survives. Burial was made on Sun-
day afternoon at Shingletown.

JODON.—Foster V. Jodon, a brief
announcement of whose death appear-
ed in last week’s “Watchman,” passed
away at his residence on the old home-
stead farm south of Bellefonte at 4:30
o’clock last Thursday morning after a
lingering illness with sarcoma of the
stomach.
He was a son of Francis and Rebec-
ca Jodon and was born on the farm
January 4th, 1855, hence had reached
the age of 66 years, 4 months and 5
days. When he grew to manhood he
elected to follow in the footsteps of
his father and stick to the farm, and
in time succeeded to the old homestead
which he cultivated until seven years
ago when his son Andrew took the
burden of the work upon his shoulders
but the father and mother continued
to make their home on the farm.
He was a member of the Methodist
church at Pleasant Gap for thirty-
three years and always took an active
interest in the church, the Sunday
school and all their allied activities.
He was deeply interested in all tem-
perance movements and a devoted
friend of the public schools. He was
a member of the Bellefonte Lodge I.
ways a hard working; industrious far-
mer he nevertheless found time to de-
vote to any movement that was for
the good of the community in which
he lived or the uplift of humanity in
general. He was a conscientious
christian, an excellent neighbor and a
man whose death is deeply deplored
by a large circle of friends.
Forty-eight years ago he was unit-
ed in marriage to Miss Sarah Jane
Smith, who survives with the follow-
ing children : Thomas Jodon, of
Pleasant Gap; Clyde, of Bellefonte;
Robert, of Niagara Falls; Van, of
Bellefonte; Andrew, on the old home-
stead, and Harry, at home. He was
the last surviving member of his
father’s family.
Funeral services were held at his
late home at two o'clock on Saturday
afternoon by Rev. M. C. Piper, after
which burial was made in the Belle- |

Ard—Bullock.—Rev. Wilson Potter
Ard, pastor of the Bellefonte Lutheran
church, and Miss Mary A. Bullock, a
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Bul-
lock, of State College, were quietly
married at Selinsgrove at nine o’clock
yesterday morning by Dr. C. T. Ai-
kens, president of Susquehanna Uni-
versity. The bride was one of the
graduates at State College this week,
in the class of home economics. She
is a charming young lady and spent
some time in Bellefonte this spring as
a teacher of home economics in the
Bellefonte High school.
The bridegroom, Rev. Ard, is so well
known in Bellefonte and various por-
tions of Centre county that anything
the “Watchman” might say would not
add to his popularity. A native of
Ferguson township he came direct to
Bellefonte upon graduating at the
Susquehanna University, and during
' the years of his labor as pastor of the
Lutheran church he has not only en-
deared himself to his congregation
but acquired a large circle of friends
who will wish him and his bride all
happiness and success possible in their
journey through life. :
Rev. :and Mrs. Ard will attend the
annual commencement at Susquehan-
na University during the coming week -
and be attendants at the wedding of
Rev. Swoope next Wednesday, return-
ing to Bellefonte the latter part of the
week.

church. Guests at the wedding includ-
| ed Rev. Sparks and wife, Mrs. Mary

An Urgent Appeal for Clothing.
From the Near East comes an ap-
peal for clothing. Five years of desti-
tution “have reduced hundreds of
thousands of people there to a most
pitiable condition.
| Many thousands of Armenians driv- .
en from their homes during the war,
are still in exile. There has been no
way to secure clothing to replace what
little they wore when they were driv-
en forth. :
All industry is paralyzed. The peo-
ple, though willing, cannot earn a live-
lihood. Vast throngs wander from
place to place, clad only in bits of rags
and strips of burlap bags. :
The little children+are perhaps the
severest sufferers. A report from a
Near East Relief worker, Miss Maria
P. Jacobson, is typical of scores of
others. She writes: .
“Hundreds of little children in our
orphanage at Harpoot dragged them-
selves to us, suffering acute rheuma-
tism and pneumonia 2s a result of lack
of clothes.”
Individual bundles of old clothing
are wanted at once. Wrap them se-
curely, and send to Near East Relief
