From a Pittsfield, Mass., paper
we learn that Philip Barnhart, son of
Mr. and Mrs. James K. Barnhart, of
Bellefonte, is achieving quite a repu-
tation as a basket ball player. He is
a member of the Elm Five, of Pitts-
field, which recently defeated the
Berkshire Industrial school team at
Canaan, N. Y., by the score of 29 to
21, and Barnhart made seven floor
baskets for the winners.

been in good health for some time
and recently his aliment was diagnos-
ed as cancer of the stomach. As it

care and treatment in the county jail
he was removed to the hospital.

ma was brought to Bellefonte by the
sheriff of Lackawanna county on the
8:10 train Saturday afternoon and
taken by automobile to the peniten-
tiary. He went to the death chair
protesting his innocence of the crime
of which he was convicted, maintain-
ing that the deed was done by two of
his fellow countrymen.
Clinton, |
and about half-way between Pennsyl-
vania Furnace and Pine Grove he saw
a large buck with a magnificent pair |
of antlers out on the state road. The '
deer, of course, had been chased off !
the mountain, but after wandering
around through the fields in that sec- |
tion finally made for the mountain |
again. !
While it was impossible yesterday
to get any accurate report of the num- !
i ber of deer killed owing to the fact
| that there is no way of communicat- |
some of which are miles deep in the
mountain fastnesses, it is quite prob-
able that many deer were Killed. |
{ From Colyer came word that day |
hunters from that place got one buck |
early in the morning and one was |
killed by the Potters Mills crowd of |
day hunters.
A new hunting party from Pitts-
burgh, captained by Paul Ward, a for-
mer Centre countian, is in camp at the
old McCormick gap and have visions
of getting their share of venison.
A number of Bellefonters, not hunt-
ers, will probably visit some of the
hunting camps over Sunday, Col. W.
Fred Reynolds expecting to go to the
camp of the Woodward Rod and Gun
club, in the Woodward Narrows, of
which editor Thomas H. Harter is a
member.
Small Game Season Closed, Deer Sea-
son Open.
The legal season for small game,
such as pheasants, wild turkey and
squirrel, closed on Wednesday and
yesterday the deer season opened. Of
course it is still legal to kill rabbits
and bear up to December 15th, and
raccoon are in season up to and in-
cluding January 31st, 1922. So far
as the small game season was con-
cerned, the kill in this section was
nothing to brag about. While game
seemed to be fairly plentiful the
weather was bad for hunting through
most of November and very few hunt-
ers had the temerity to brave the ele-
ments with only a slim chance of bag-
ging any game. At that, quite a num-
ber of wild turkeys were killed in
Centre county, but no hunters report-
ed any great luck with pheasants,
while squirrel have become so scarce
that hunting them isn’t any sport at
all. The scarcity of squirrel is di-
rectly ascribable to the wholesale de-
struction of nut bearing trees, and
woodsmen are now advocating the
planting of groves of hickory nut and
walnut trees. They will not only fur-
nish food for squirrels but in future
years will afford a valuable timber
crop.
Anent the opening of the deer cea-
son, hunting parties from other sec-
tions of the State began to drift into
Centre county last week, but the big-
gest inrush was on Sunday. Some
five or six hunting parties came in on
the Pennsylvania-Lehigh train from
the western part of the State on Sun-
day afternoon and lost no time in get-
ting away in automobiles for their
respective hunting camps. While
Bellefonte does not now have a reg-
ularly organized hunting club quite a
number of residents of the town are
members of clubs in various parts of
the county and they are all out for
their annual hunt.

Tip Top Merry Makers
Again,
Orth and Coleman’s Tip Top Merry
Makers which played here on Thanks-
giving day are billed for a return en-
gagement at the Garman theatre for
three nights, beginning next Monday.
This company made such a hit here
last week that Manager Toner has ar-
ranged to bring them back. They will
present three new musical comedies
during their engagement, a change of
play each evening. There are twenty-
five people in the company, including
some of the best comedians, singers
and dancers now appearing in musical
comedy. A car load of special scene-
ry is used in mounting the plays and
the wardrobe ranks with the best pro-
ductions. All of the plays are clean
and wholesome and the big American
Beauty chorus is one of the feature
attractions. The opening bill will be
“Aladdin from Broadway,” a delight-
ful musical comedy in two acts and
seven scenes in which there are twen-
ty-two catchy musical numbers.

——The Ladies Aid society of the
Milesburg Presbyterian church will

— Special attention is again call-
ed to the regular mid-year conference
of Sunday school workers which will
. be held in the United Brethren church,
‘ Bellefonte, to morrow (Saturday).
Sessions will be held at 9:30 in the
morning and 1:30 in the afternoon.
Lunch will be served at the church.
Among the speakers will be State sec-.
retary W. G. Landes and Miss Emma
G. Lemen, State children’s division
superintendent. .Every county officer,
district officer, pastor and Sunday
school superintendent in the county

——State College is a long ways
from Seattle, Wash., but that fact
holds no terrors for the student body
when it comes to following the for-
tunes of its victorious football team;
consequently arrangements have been
‘made to receive tomorrow’s game with
the University of Washington by tel-
egraph, just as the plays are made.
A special wire will be run to the ar--
mory where the report will be receiv-
ed. Owing to the difference in time
it will probably be five o’clock before
the report will begin. But the hour
will make little difference to the stu-
dents and others who will be on hand
to hear the report of the game.
Who Cashed the Checks?
On September 22nd, Willis Bath-
gate, a driver of one of the trucks de-
livering milk to the Western Mary-
land Dairy in Bellefonte, lost two
checks, one for $48.46 made out to
W. N. Fishburn, and one for $36.00
made out to John Reish, both Benner
township farmers, and as no trace of
the checks could be obtained the West-
cin Maryland Dairy was notified
{and they in turn notified their bank
in Baltimore and stopped payment cn
the checks.
Last week both checks were cashed
at Tyrone banks, probably by the man
who found them. At one bank he rep-
resented himself as Mr. Fishburn and
at the other Mr. Reish. Though de-
tectives have been working upon the
case they have not found any trace of
the man who secured the money.
African Student Wins Scholarship at
State.
A native of Liberia, a country on
the west coast of Africa, has been
given the first award of the foreign
student scholarship at The Pennsyl-
vania State College. He is K. W. G.
Donma, a member of the Junior class
in the school of agriculture. The col-
lege trustees only recently authorized
the giving of a foreign scholarship
each year to some needy student
drawn to Penn State from overseas.
It carries a valuation equivalent to
$175 a year for the recipient. :
Among the 3100 students at Penn
State this year, fourteen come from
outside the United States. They in-
clude one from Japan, three from Chi-
na, one from Africa, one from Cana-
da, one from the Philippine Islands
and seven from Porto Rico. Twenty
States representing all sections of the
country from Maine to California, are
also represented in the student body.
Dedication of Moose Hall Postponed.
Members of the Loyal Order of the
Moose No. 1565, of Clarence, prepar-
ed an elaborate program for the dedi-
cation of their new hall last Saturday.
A big parade was to take place at one
o’clock which was to include the Moose
Lodge, the Moose Jr., the Moose Le-
gion, the Narodne, the Yednota, the
Amerikansky Russky and several
bands of music, but the hard down-
pour of rain all day so discouraged
the committee in charge that they
postponed not only the parade but the
entire program of the dedication un-
til some date after New Year’s.
In this connection it might be add-
ed that quite a number of members
of the Bellefonte Lodge of Moose went
out to Clarence in two big busses and
various private cars to take part in
the program and because of the steady
rain, which continued during Satur-
day night the drivers of the various
busses and cars felt apprehensive
about coming over the mountain dur-
ing the night, hence they all remained
at Clarence and Snow Shoe until day-
light Sunday morning, when they
came home without a mishap.

Health Week December 5th to 11th.
In connection with the 1921
Christmas seal sale, and in line with
the suggestion of the National
Health Council, the week of Decem-
ber 5th to 11th, inclusive, will be ob-
served as Health week throughout the
State, with special emphasis on Fri-
day, December 9th, as tuberculosis
day in the schools and Sunday, De-
cember 11th, as tuberculosis day in
the churches.
There will be presented health talks
anc stories by the teachers and health
plays by children in the schools. Pas-
tors have been asked to speak on the
menace of tuberculosis and there will
also be health talks by Sunday school
superintendents and teachers on De-
cember 11th.
As the health-education work of the
Tuberculosis committee of Bellefonte
continues through the school year no
special program has been arranged
for next week. Height and weight
charts have been completed for all
grade pupils; tooth brushes have been
supplied to children needing them and
Fun Loo, the new health clown, will
give a second performance next week
in the High school building. The lit-
tle pamphlet “To the Children of
America,” will be used as a reading
lesson in all grades on Tuberculosis
day.
The Bear Meadows to be Preserved
to Posterity.
About six weeks ago the Pennsyl-
vania State Forestry Commission ap-
pointed a committee of fourteen peo-
ple to investigate the Bear Meadows
tract in the Seven mountains and re-
port upon the question of preserving
it in its present condition as a State
preserve. On Tuesday Dr. Edwin E.
Sparks and Prof Frank D. Kern, of
State College; Col. J. L. Spangler,
Miss Mary Gray Meek, Mrs. John
| Porter Lyon and James R. Hughes,
of Bellefonte, all members of the
committee, with Dr. Joseph T. Roth-
rock, of West Chester, a member of
the State Forestry Commission, and
Forester Roy Morton, of Petersburg,
met at the hotel in Boalsburg to de-
cide the future of the Bear Meadows.
It had been the intention of the com-
mittee to go into the mountains and
view this wonderful natural tract of
land but an eight inch snow fall in the
mountains on Monday night rendered
the trip inadvisable if not impossi-
ble.
One of the questions up to the com-
mittee to decide was whether the tract
in question was the “Bare” Meadows
or “Bear” Meadows .and Dr. Rothrock
set all doubts at rest when he stated
to his certain knowledge they were
“Bear” and not “Bare.” He gave as
the derivation of the name the fact
that the mountains in that section
were at one time well populated with
bear and the meadows composed a
favorite feeding ground as well as a
place where the bear gathered to wal-
low in the marshy peols of water. In
fact he stated that he personally had
seen bear wallowing in the pools.
This settled the question and the com-
mittee decided that the six hundred
acre tract should be henceforth called
the “Bear” Meadows, but gave it the
additional name of “Nature Plant
Preserve,” by which it will hence-
forth be known. The committee de-
cided to recommend that the tract be
preserved as it is now to all posteri-
ty, and that it be placed under the
joint supervision of the Pennsylvania
Department of Forestry and the bo-
tanical department of The Pennsylva-
nia State College.
The chief reason for the preserva-
tion of this tract of ground is because
of its wonderful botanical display of
flowers, plants, ete., the like of which
cannot be found anywhere else in the
State, and probably not in the United
States. It is the only place known
where huckleberries grow on trees,
not bushes, but trees more than twen-
ty feet in height.
The State Forestry Department is
now constructing durable highways
into the Meadows from Centre, Mifflin
and Huntingdon counties, the one
from Centre county entering through
Galbraith’s Gap. Comparatively little
small game is to be found in the tract,
but there are some deer and occasion-
ally bear seen there. The report and
recommendation of the committee
will be presented to the Forestry
Commission at its next meeting when
it is expected that definite action will
be taken in regard to the preservation
of the Bear Meadows.
Telephone Lineman Injured.
William Crawshaw, a telephone
lineman in the employ of the Com-
mercial Telephone company, was tak-
en to the Bellefonte hospital on Wed-
nesday evening for treatment for in-
juries sustained when a pole on which
he was working broke and fell to the
ground, landing on top of him. Craw-
shaw had gone up a pole opposite the
Chemical Lime company’s plant in
Buffalo Run valley to make some mi-
nor repairs just before quitting time
Wednesday evening. He fastened his
belt around the pole and was just in
the act of starting work on the line
when the pole broke off at the ground
and fell down. Crawshaw was una-
ble to get his belt loose and therefore
could not jump and save himself, and
the result was the pole fell across the
fleshy part of his right leg.
He was brought to Bellefonte and
taken to his lodgings over Twitmire’s
store and a physician summoned. The
latter was unable to discover any
broken bones but as Crawshaw was
suffering considerable pain it was
deemed advisable to remove him to
the hospital.
Statement of Elks Hallowe’en Carni-
val Expenses.

{ Furst—Foster.—The home of Mr.
and Mrs. Philip D. Foster, at State
College, was the scene of a beautiful
i wedding at noon last Friday when
| their youngest daughter, Miss Helen
' M. E. Foster, was united in marriage
| to Stanley Scott Furst, of Connells-
‘ville. The interior of the Foster
home was rich in floral decorations
'and about fifty guests were present
| to witness the ceremony, which was
‘ performed by Rev. Samuel Martin, of
| the Presbyterian church. The bride
looked lovely in a gown of blue panne
velvet with a hat to match and a bou-
quet of orchids, roses and lillies of
the valley. She was attended by Miss
Juliet Grazier, who wore a gown of
blue charmeuse and carried a bou-
quet of orchids, pink roses and lillies
of the valley. The best man was the
bridegroom’s brother, Robert S. Furst.
Immediately following the ceremo-
| ny a delicious wedding breakfast was
served and later in the day Mr. and
Mrs. Furst left for their home in Con-
nellsville. The bride is a graduate of
the 1920 class at Penn State in the do-
mestic science course. The bride-
| groom graduated the same year in the
electrical engineering course. He is
‘at present engaged in teaching histo-
ry and civics in the Connellsville
High school. Among the guests at
| the wedding were the bride’s brother
and sister, Harold Foster, of Chicago,
and Mrs. J. S. Crandall, of New York.
Flynn—Morgan.—A very pretty
wedding was solemnized at Snow Shoe
on Tuesday of last week when Vin-

——Last Friday afternoon as Mrs.
Abner Rider, Mrs. Warren Minnemy-
er and Mrs. Roy Keeler, all of Cole-
ville, were driving south on Thomas
street to attend the funeral of the late
Franklin Lockard their horse fright-
ened at the train and ran away. Mrs.
Minnemyer and Mrs. Keeler jumped
and in doing so threw down the robe
so that when Mrs. Rider attempted to
jump her feet caught in the robe and
she fell over the dash board in the
rear of the horse. The wheels of the
buggy passed over her, painfully
bruising her face and body. She was
carried into a house on Thomas street
and a physician summoned. An ex-
amination disclosed the fact that no
bones were broken and that her inju-
ries were not serious, and she was
conveyed to her home in Coleville.

——Johnny Mignot dropped in here
Wednesday evening and told -us that
he had seen a five-pronged buck last
Friday afternoon, up at the Briarly
operation of the American Lime and
Stone company, where he is working.
He said the buck came right down to
the opening, never paying any atten-
tion to the noise of the air compres-
sor or anything else. He is going to
take out a license now so if you hear
of deer meat up at Mignot’s you may
guess where it came from. It is our
opinion, however, that Johnny might
just as well go hunting that buck with
a salt shaker as a gun and it don’t
cost any license fee to hunt with salt
shakers.
