THOUSANDS GOING AFTER DEER |
Season Will Open Next Thursday and
Hunters Anticipate Lots of
| Good Sport.
Upwards of six thousand hunters
licenses have been issued by county
treasurer L. Frank Mayes, by far the
largest number ever taken out in Cen-
tre county. Of course every holder of
a license will not go out for the open-
ing of the deer season, which will be
on Thursday of next week, but it is
likely the majority of them will. And
in addition, hundreds of hunters from
all over the State come to Centre
county every fall for deer, so there is
hardly any question but that thous-
ands will be on the trail with the
break of day on the morning of De-
cember first.
Taking into consideration the fact
| that by far the larger portion of the
deer killed in Centre county last year
were in the Seven mountains, it is
only natural to conclude that this will
be the choice hunting ground this
year.

State Tied with Pitt,
The great Thanksgiving football
classic between State and Pitt at
Pittsburgh yesterday resulted in a
draw, 0-0.
On paper and season’s showing
State should have won by two or
three touchdowns, but, as last year
when the teams tied also, State prob-
‘ably had gone stale after her hard
: schedule and did not play at top form.
i It rained hard all Wednesday night
'in Pittsburgh, so that Forbes field was
‘a quagmire and made footing so bad |
| that the great blue and white backs :
| were unable to get off any effective
‘open field work.
| Practically all of the play was in
, Pitt territory. In the first half State
worked the ball down to Pitt’s four-
| teen yard line and seemed going for
| the goal when a fumble lost the ball
| and halted the march. In the second
{half Pitt carried the ball 40 yards to
| State’s 25-yard line and there tried a
‘forward pass which State intercepted.
| Those were the only times either goal
: was threatened.
The game here between the Amer-
can Legion and Yeagertown teams re-
sulted in a victory for the home boys
by a score of 13 to 0.
War Savings Security News.
It . may interest readers: of the
“Watchman” to learn that from Jan-

eight $1,000 savings certificates, and
“the holders of these securities are the
| patrons of the following postoffices:

fonte 5; Zion 3; Fleming 3; Boals-
burg 2; Rebersburg 1, and Spring

———Several weeks age Nelson E.
Robb, administrator of the estate of
the late Harriet L. Kurtz, paid over
to the trustees of the Bellefonte Pres-
byterian church the sum of $1065 on
a $2,000 bequest made to that
church in the interest of missionary
work. Last week a five hundred dol-
lar bond was found in the First Na-
tionl bank at State College, which be-
longs to the estate, and it will also be
turned over to the Presbyterian
church to add to the bequest.
——The home of Harry S. Miller,
about three and a half miles north-
east of Port Matilda, was totally de-
stroyed by fire last Wednesday morn-
ing. The family were awakened by
the smoke about two o’clock in the
morning and barely escaped with
their lives, losing not only their home
but all their household goods and
$135.00 in money. Miller is employed
as a flagman on the Bald Eagle Val-
ley railroad and had only recently
purchased the little farm on which his
home was located.
——S. Morton, of New York city,
will speak in Garman’s opera
house Thursday evening, December
1st, at 8 o’clock, on the subject, “Mil-
lions Now Living will Never Die.”
Everybody is invited to attend and
hear the good tidings, what Christ has
in store for mankind when he comes
to establish His righteousness on
earth; when the knowledge of God
will cover the land as the water cov-
ers the great deep. No collection,
seats free. Afternoon meeting at
three o'clock. All welcome.
———At the regular meeting of the
Board of Pardons last week the sen-
tence of Sydney Rhyne, alias “Whitey
Morris,” was commuted from the
death penalty to life imprisonment.
Rhyne is from Delaware county and
was brought to the death house at
Rockview on June 26th for electrocu-
tion the following Monday. He is a
hopeless paralytic and had to be car-
ried on a cot. This fact was used in
securing a respite from the Governor
and also answered in getting a com-
muation of his sentence. He will now
be taken back to the hospital of the
eastern penitentiary.

Mid-Year
Conference of Sunday
School Workers.
The regular mid-year conference of
Sunday school workers will be held
in the United Brethren church, Belle-
fonte, on Saturday, December 3rd.
There will be two sessions, in the
morning at 9:30 o'clock, and at 1:30
in the afternoon. Lunch will be serv-
ed at the church. State secretary W.
G. Landes and State children’s divis-
ion superintendent, Miss Emma G.
Lemen, both of whom are well known
in Centre county, will be among the
speakers. Tune organization officials
are very anxious to have every coun-
ty officer, every district officer, every
pastor and every Sunday school su-
perintendent present, as these confer-
ences are always very helpful.
bear their congratulations to Dr. and |
Mrs. Schmidt, as well as to the con- |
| tive committee it was decided to hold
the annual meeting of the Centre
county Farm Bureau in the court
house at Bellefonte on Saturday, De-
| cember 24th, 1921.
At the annual meeting a complete
report of the past year’s work will be
given and plans made for the coming
year. In the afternoon short talks
will be given on interesting agricul-
tural subjects. Every farmer in Cen-
tre county is just as much a member
of the Farm Bureau as the members
of the executive committee, and hence
should attend the annual meeting and
give his assistance in making this
work more effective throughout the
| county.
FARM PRODUCTS SHOW.
As in the past two years the Centre
county farm products show will be
held on the day of the annual meet-
ing of the Farm Bureau, December
| 24th, at the court house. The fair at
Centre Hall comes too early for a
good farm products exhibit, so this is
j really the only farm products show
iin Centre county, and promises this
year to be a real show.
The exhibits this year will include
corn, potatoes and apples, same as
last year, and in addition wheat and
oats have been included. Several
times last year’s amount of premium
money has been secured and the pre.
miums this year will be especially at-
tractive. Centre county is one of the
most productive counties of the State
and should have one of the best farm
products shows. Start now to collect
your exhibits. A premium list will
be published at a later date in this
paper.
— Have you noticed the adver- PAROLED CONVICT STOLE HORS-
| tisement of The Basket Shop in this :
: ES AND WAGON.
! Arrested in York County Last Week.
Owner Recovers Team, Wagon
and All
On the night of October 30th some
person stole a team of horses, spring
. wagon, harness, some corn and pota-
‘toes from John White, up near the
| penitentiary. The thief was trailed
to Selinsgrove where all trace of him
{ was lost. While the identity of the
‘man was uncertain suspicion pointed |
to a paroled convict of the western
i .
' penitentiary, one “Doc” Powers, and |
‘the penitentiary authorities were ap-
_pealed to to assist in the search for’
‘the man, and he was finally located
‘on a farm in York county, about three
| miles from York, with the team,
{ wagon and all still in his possession.
| Powers, who was one of the short
‘ term men brought to Rockview from
| the eastern penitentiary, had been
{his home in York county. But the
week before he stole Mr. White's
horses and wagon he was seen in the
“neighborhood of the penitentiary with
~a double barreled shot gun and had
i told some one that he had come up
‘here to hunt. Two nights before he
‘ stole White’s stuff he was seen
| prowling around the barn of Mr. Rice,
| up in that locality, and that gentle-
! man got after him with a pitchfork,
jit is alleged, and chased him away.
‘ The fact that he was not seen after
| the horses and wagon were stolen led
{ to the belief that he was the thief.
| As soon as the authorities located
him in York county sheriff Harry
| Dukeman was notified and last Fri-
! day he, accompanied by Mr. White,
. went down to get the man. He offer-
ed no resistance and the
| brought him back on Saturday and
placed him in the Centre county jail.
The team, wagon and harness were
home. Powers is said to be a man of
limited intelligence and hardly capa-
ble ofcomprehending the gravity of
his crime.
Today and Tomorrow.
If you contemplate making a dona-
tion to the Bellefonte hospital and
live in Bellefonte your gift will be
called for today or tomorrow. The
ambulance will be run over all the
streets of the town and with it will be
several nurses and ladies of the hos-
pital auxiliary who will gladly re-
ceive anything you may have to do-
nate; whether it be cash, linens, mus-
lin, groceries, vegetables or any oth-
er article that could be used in the
institution.
The hospital needs no praise from
us. You know the splendid service
it renders as well as we do. It must
be supported more generously by this
community than ever before because
the State has reduced its aid by
$2000.00 and as the institution was
just about making ends meet before
that blow fell we will all have to pull
together to make up the loss.
So be generous. Watch for the
ambulance today or tomorrow and
make this Thanksgiving donation
commensurate with your means.

High School Athletic Notes.
The High school basket ball team
will begin to prepare for its winter
contests this week, practicing in the
armory. It is unfortunate that the
Y. M. C. A. continues to lie idle and
that the skating rink will occupy the
armory evenings, until Christmas.
The boys will practice afternoons for
a while, and as they will have an ear-
lier start than usual they hope to get
away with a good deal at the opening
of the season.
That interest in football has reviv-
ed in the High school was clearly
demonstrated by the enthusiasm
shown over an interclass game last
week between the Juniors and Soph-
omores. The former came out on the
long end of a 12 to 0 score.

of men and women students attending
The Pennsylvania State College this

A Woman Sawed in Half.
What is purported to be one of the
greatest mysteries of the age will be
the feature at the opera house Mon-
day and Tuesday evenings, November
28th and 29th. It is called “Sawing
a Woman in Half.” On a brilliantly
lighted stage the operation is per-
formed with a crosscut saw in full
view of the audience and a special
committee who will be invited from
the audience to occupy the stage.
In addition there will also be shown
a good six reel picture, “Heading
Home,” with Babe Ruth, the world’s
home run king. A picture for the
young, middle-aged and old folks.
Prices, 28 cents for the balcony, 56
cents for the first floor.
