wheat would be down to a dollar a |
bushel, but that is just what the
Bellefonte dealers are now offering.
But there is no great rush of farmers

fact quite a number of farmers in the

on hand, having refused to seli last
fall when they could have had any-
where from two dollars down.

SMOKESTACK A NUISANCE.
Miscellaneous Business Transacted by
Borough Council.
Only five members were present at
the regular meeting of borough coun-
cil on Monday evening. Louis Hill
| appeared in person and requested per-
mission to place a gasoline tank ard
pump on the street in front of his
home on the corner of Bishop and
Wilson streets. One of the council
stated that he was under an impres-
sion that a law had been passed re-
cently forbidding the placing of gas-
oline tanks under the street or pave-
ment, but Mr. Hill stated that he had
received permission from the State
Highway Department in Harrisburg.
The matter was finally referred to the
borough manager and Street commit-
tee for investigation and with power.
A delegation of residents of Spring
street, with Walter Cohen as spokes-
man, was present and made complaint
smokestack on the Kern laundry,
which they declared was a persistent
nuisance. Mr. Cohen stated that the
smokestack is about on a level with
the lower rooms of the houses on
Spring street and the result is the
smoke and soot pollutes the rooms at
all times, being at its worst when
there is a high wind. He suggested
as a remedy the raising of the stack
about twenty feet which would clear
‘the tops of the houses. President
Walker asked him if he meant by that
that the smoke and soot would be car-
ried across the houses on the west
side of the street and passed on to the
residents on the east side. Mr. Co-
i hen stated that it would probably car-
‘ry it over all the houses, but in any
i event he asked council to declare the
present situation a nuisance and have
it abated. Council was undecided as
to what authority they might have in
| the matter so referred the question to
| the Nuisance committee for investi-
{ gation and report.
. A written communication was re-
i ceived from tax collector J. Kenne-
{ dy Johnston giving his reasons for de-
! siring an increase in his commission
i for collecting the borough taxes. One
| of the reasons cited was the fact that
| there are more than a thousand state-
ments on which the occupation valua-
i tion is $25, and the tax 88 cents. His
commission on these, he asserts, does
not pay the expense of sending out
notices, etc., let alone the work con-
nected with the collection of same. No
action was taken in the matter.
report of the borough manager, which
included the collection of $10.00 from
C. T. Gerberich for a sewer permit.
The Water committee presented the
report of the borough manager in re-
lation to the water department and
reported the collection of $56.00 on
the 1919 water duplicate. The com-
mittee also recommended ' that the
1920 water duplicate be accepted from
the State-Centre Electric company
and turned over to the borough man-
ager to clean up and the 1921 dupli-
cate be given to the State-Centre
company on or before November first,
which was ordered done.
Borough manager J. D. Seibert pre-
sented a report on the 1919 duplicate
with the statement that everything
collected had been gathered in. On
the general duplicate there is a bal-
ance of $124.25 which he termed un-
collectible. Errors in making out the
duplicate totalled $71.89, while on the ;
meter bills there is a balance on ac-
"count of errors and uncollectible bills
of $164.79, making a total of $360.93.
As an offset to this he had collected
$44.50 for water rental which did not
appear on the duplicates, and he ask-
, ed that exonerations be granted to the
above accounts in order to clean up
the duplicate, and the same were
' granted.
i The Fire and Police committee re-'
‘ported that there is insufficient ra-
{ diation in the large room of the Un-
| dine Fire company and in cold weath- :
er it is necessary to keep coal oil
stoves burning to keep the steamer
| from freezing up. An additional ra-
diator of sufficient size to give am-
| ple heat can be installed for $45.00,
and the committee was authorized to
‘have the same put in.
{ The Finance committee presented
the borough .treasurer’s request for
the renewal of notes for $1,000, $630
and $1,000, which was authorized.
Mr. John Blanchard’s request for a
reduction of the valuation on his prop-
erty on west Linn street for the year
1921, owing to the house having been
practically destroyed by fire, was
granted.
Bills totalling $4,700 were approv-
ed for payment and council then ad-
journed.
| Miner Drowned in Moshannon Creek.
{
Andrew Karnish, of Coaldale, a
Slavish miner employed in the mines
near Munson, was drowned in Mo-
shannon creek, near the latter place
some time Sunday night. He went to
Grass Flat on Saturday evening to
spend the night with friends, expect-
ing to return home Sunday evening.
At seven o’clock on Monday morning
Charles McKewn, on his way to work,
saw part of a man’s coat floating on
top of the water in Moshannon creek.
The attention of other men was call-
ed to the fact and they proceeded to
investigate. The result was the find-
inz of Karnish’s body. Money found
in his pockets removed all suspicion
of foul play. It is believed that Kar-
nish was returning home after dark
on a path close to the edge of the
stream and probably made a misstep
and fell in. The water is three feet
deep where the body was found. Kar-
nish was thirty-eight years old and
leaves a wife and eight children.

——Taxes mean better fire appa-
ratus, better schools, better streets,

and protection. For a better town,

| or three weeks longer the Spruks
company will complete the laying of
brick on the state road from Pleasant
Gap to the watering trough on the
mountain. The grouters having fol-
lowed pretty close on the heels of the
bricklayers it is just possible the road
will be entirely ®ompleted this fall;

thrown open to traffic.
——The regular meeting of the
* Woman’s club will be held on Monday,
October 24th, at 7:30 p. m., in the
High school building. Reports will :
be read of the inter-county meeting
held in Lemont on October 1st, and !
the Pennsylvania State Federation of
Women’s clubs in Pittsburgh, at the
Hotel Penn, October
fonte was represented there by Miss
Daise Keichline, who was the dele-
gate from the Woman’s club. Mem-
bers will please note the change in
the date of the meeting from the 31st
to the 24th, due to the Hallowe’en
celebration.
According to reports an at-
tempt was made to hold up a Belle-
fonte motorist last Friday night on!
the Nittany valley state highway at a
point about midway between the twe
roads leading in to the Nittany Coun-
try club The motorist was on his way
to Bellefonte and at the point refer- |
red to a man suddenly jumped out in-
to the road and threw up his hand
for the driver to stop. The latter
slowed down but when he got close
enough he saw that the man was an |
absolute stranger and his appearance
was anything but prepossessing, so
calling to him to get out of the way
or he’d run over him the driver step-
ped on the accelerator and the car
plunged forward. The man jumped
to the side of the road and ran.

——On Monday evening as Donald
Klinger, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward
Klinger, was on his way home out east
Howard street a man with a handker-
chief tied over the lower part of his
face jumped out from one of the va-
cant lots and ordering the boy to stop
demanded money. Donald was pret- |
ty badly frightened but not that bad
that he wasn’t able to take to his
heels and dig for home. The man ran
after him a short distance then gave !
up the pursuit. It is just possible the
bold highwayman may have been one :
of Donald’s companions playing a
trick on him, but it is likely to have
: been a real hold-up man. Such things
are happening all over the country
and it is well to keep an eye open for
suspicious characters in Bellefonte.

Big Moose Meeting Friday
October 28th.
Bellefonte Lodge No. 206, Loyal
Order of Moose, is planning to have
a grand celebration meeting at the
lodge rooms, McClain block, opposite
the Bush house, on the night of Fri-
day, October 28th. The lodge has in-
itiated a great membership drive
which closes November 24th, and the
proposed meeting is intended to give
the movement an impetus that will
i result in the enrollment of many new
members. There will be a number of
prominent speakers.
| Secretary of Labor, James A. Da-
vis, director general of Mooseheart,
‘and a nation-wide figure in Moose
circles is lending his personal inter-
est to make the membership drive a
; tremendous success. In appreciation
, of his wonderful service for the ben-
efit of the Moose the local lodge will
‘suspend a 30-foot banner, bearing his
! picture in front of the lodge rooms.
i The banner will be brilliantly lighted.

The New Schedule for the Red
Cross Nurse.
For a year and a half, the Belle-
fonte Chapter American Red Cross
has supported a nurse whose services
to the community have proven beyond
question the advisability of continu-
ing it as a permanent institution.
During these eighteen months, the
two nurses, Miss Mae Peterman, who
resigned last April to return to Phil-
adelphia, and Miss Mary Royer, who
! succeeded her, have made 2622 nurs-
ing visits. Although much of Miss
Peterman’s time was spent in follow-
up work of school children, she was
never able to arrange, as she hoped
to, for definite office hours in the
schools. The nursing activities com-
mittee of the Red Cross has now been
able to make such arrangements that
Miss Royer will devote most of her
time, for the next two months, to
schoo! work. Monday and Tuesday
at 9:30 a. m., she will have office
hours at the High school building;
Wednesday, at 9:30, at the Parochial
school, and Thursday and Friday at
9:30, at the High school building. She
will continue her regular 9 to 9:30 a.
m. office hour in Petrikin hall, and her
Well-Baby clinic from 2 to 3 on Wed-
nesday afternoon. It would be well
to bear this schedule in mind that the
services of the nurse may be secured
when needed, without unnecessary de-
lay.
