The public sale season is now in full swing and county treasurer L.

On Wednesday morning the thermometer was down to within eight degrees of zero. The Bellefonte Lodge of Odd Fellows enjoyed their annual banquet in their hall in Crider’s stone build- ing on Tuesday evening. The crowd in attendance was quite large and in- cluded a number of invited guests.

Henry Taylor celebrated his | eightieth birthday anniversary at his home on Spring street on Monday. | Mr. Taylor for years carried the mail | from the railroad to the postoffice but | gave it up a few years ago.

P. Blair & Son, several weeks ago, then forgot to take back the change, is now languishing in the Centre county jail ruminating upon his shortcomings. As stated in this paper at the time Baney ‘left Belle- fonte and went to Buffalo, N. Y., and while a warrant was sworn out for his arrest officers of the law decided that it was not worthwhile going to the expense of a trip to Buffalo for Baney, as they felt sure he would come back shortly. And he did. He returned to Bellefonte last Thursday night and Friday morning he was taken into custody and landed in jail. So far the only money recovered by F. P. Blair & Son are the five dollars gotten from Isaac Baney which Charles had paid him for a horse. Baney plead guilty in open court on Tuesday to appro- priating the money to his own use and was sentenced to the Huntingdon re- ASSOCIATED BUSINESS MEN'S BANQUET. | Members Eat Turkey and Hear Good | Speeches at Bush House Last Thursday Night. A brief item in the “Watchman” last week predicted that the Asso- ciated Business Men of Bellefonte would have a good time at their sec- ond annual banquet held at the Bush house last Thursday night, and in this case, at least, we proved a good prophet. But a large part of the credit is due Mine Host Lewis Dag- gett for the comfortable arrange- ments made, the beautiful and patriot- ic decorations and the elaborate menu. As the latter is always the main fea- ture at any banquet it is entitled to just recognition so we herewith give it in full: Chicken Consomme a la Royal Chilled, Celery Hearts Queen Olives Baked Lake Erie Pike, Parsley Sauce Potato Boulettes Business Men’s Punch Roast Young Turkey, with Filling Cranberry Sauce Whipped Potatoes Creamed Onions Cabbage Salad, French Dressing Maple Walnut Ice Cream Fancy Assorted Cakes After Dinner Mints Coffee Cigars and Cigarettes About two hundred invitations had been sent out and in the neighbor- hood of one hundred and forty men re- sponded. Wion’s orchestra furnished the music and the dining room pre- sented an inspiring sight as the guests marched in at 8:30 o’clock. Rev. Dr. Schmidt was present and invoked ‘the divine blessing and then everybody fell to and discussed the menu given above. When the tables were finally cleared and cigars and cigarettes lighted H. C. Yeager, president of the association, made a brief talk, direct- ed more to outsiders than to members, in which he told what had been ac- complished for Bellefonte in a busi- ness way since the organization of the association and that the members hoped to continue the good work. He then introduced as the main speaker of the evening Mr. George E. Foss, secretary of the State Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Foss gave a very interesting talk on the upbuilding of community work being done by the various Cham- bers of Commerce throughout the State, and outlined the many possi- bilities open to a good, live organiza- tion of business men in any communi- ty. He urged hearty co-operation up- on the part of all the citizens of the town. Mr. Foss was followed by W. C. Byers, chief of the State Bureau of Agriculture, who captured the atten- tion of his audience by repeating sev- eral clever little stories then told of how Chambers of Commerce in var- ious towns had succeeded in interest- ing the farmers and getting them into the association with the result that a better and more reciprocal feeling was engendered which proved of benefit to all. Mr. Byers offered to come to Bellefonte some time in April to ex- plain the matter more in detail, and his offer was promptly accepted. Advance notice of the date of his vis- it will be given in due time. Rev. M. DePui Maynard was called upon and spoke briefly of the good work the business men have done and urged a more hearty co-operation in the future on the part of every busi- ness man. George T. Bush, chairman of the publicity committee, cited the fact that “in union there is strength” and urged those who are not now members of the association to join and lend their aid to the upbuilding of Belle- fonte and community. He expressed the hope that the banquet would be followed by monthly noon luncheons of an informal character, where plans and purposes can be discussed. Mr. Bush brought up the fact that Belle- fonte is sadly in need of a recreational center and suggested the island in Spring creek as a most suitable place if it could be secured and fixed up for that purpose. Judge Quigley stated that his opin- ion of the Associated Business Men had been entirely revised. That he at first was under the impression that they had organized primarily for price control but having seen the material good they have done for the town and their aims for the future he thought that every man in Bellefonte, business or professional, should belong, and he promptly filed his application for membership. Other brief talks were made by Father Downes, James R. Hughes, Col. W. Fred Reynolds and G. Oscar Gray. Everybody present voted the banquet a great success and at midnight the gathering broke up with the singing of “The Star Span- gled Banner.” Apropos of the banquet it might be stated that one of the results of the gathering was the filing of about twen- ty-five applications for membership, which will give the Associated Busi- ness Men a membership of eighty or more. While this number is fairly representative of the business inter- ests of Bellefonte the association is anxious to enlist the co-operation of every man who has the interests of the town at heart. Hence, if you are not now a member, there will never be a better time than right now to be- come one. —— Any one who can make a good home for one or more destitute boys, ages from 9 to 13 years, will please communicate with Rev. M. DeP. May- nard, officer of the juvenile court, or Mrs. R. S. Brouse, president of the formatory by Judge Quigley.

Believing her to be guilty of in- fidelity Morano stabbed his wife sev- enteen times. The body was unclaim- ed and was buried in the penitentiary cemetery. Altoona Man Held for Another Hunter. Shooting At a hearing before justice of the’ peace S. Kline Woodring, last Thurs- day afternoon, Walter B. Gray, of Al- toona, was held in six hundred dollars bail for trial at the May term of Cen- tre county court on the charge of shooting Willis D. Woodring, of Port Matilda, while the two men were hunting small game in Halfmoon township on November 3rd. Wood- ring was the victim of a load of fine shot fired by Gray and while his inju- ries were not serious they were pain- ful. Thomas Mosier, game protector, made the information on which Gray was arrested, in accordance with an Act of Assembly approved May 22nd, 1921. Under the act, if found guilty, Gray could lose his hunting privileges for a period of five years and would also be subject to a fine and impris- onment, at the discretion of the court. This will be the first case of the kind brought in Centre county and the out- come will be of interest to hunters generally. Prize Winners in P. O. S. of A. Essay Contest. : As a means of creating a little his- torical rivalry among the school chil- dren of Bellefonte and vicinity Wash- ington Camp No. 887, P. O. S. of A,, of Bellefonte, recently offered prizes for the three best essays on George Washington submitted by pupils fif- teen years of age or under. All told forty-six essays were turned in and the judges, Miss Helen E. C. Overton, Rev. Wilson P. Ard and Rev. Reed O. Steely, had considerable of a job on their hands going over the list and se- lecting the most meritorious. They finally reached a decision and awarded the first prize of $5.00 to Miss Grace Cohen, of Bellefonte; sec- ond prize of $3.00 to Miss Louise Knisely, of Bellefonte, and third prize of $2.00 to Miss Vera Hile, of Pleas- ant Gap. Honorable mention wa% made of the essay submitted by Miss Estelle Roberts, of Bellefonte. The committee in charge ' hereby wishes to thank all those who took part in the contest, thus contributing to its success. : Near East Relief Contributions. The committee for Near East Relief is unable this week to give a definite statement of the amount contributed. Philipsburg and State College, begin- ning with their field days, February 12th and February 19th, respectively, are well on the way to the completion of their quotas. Reports from other communities, including Bellefonte, are coming in more slowly. At least it can be said that more than one-half of the 146 children “looking to Centre county” are by this time assured shelte” in an orphanage for another year. Every one is urged to contribute as generously as possible, either through an organization or individually, to the support of these children. Lieut. Connes, official interpreter of the New York Supreme court, formerly a mem- ber of the Russian commission of the American Red Cross, said in the court house February 18th, “It would be more cruel for America to cease her aid to Armenia, and other strick- en regions of the Near East now, than it would have been to refuse to begin these activities.” Former Centre Countian Killed on the Railroad. A telephone message from Blooms- burg on Wednesday morning an- nounced the sad fact that Luther Lansberry, a former resident of Spring township, this county, had been instantly killed that morning when a truck loaded with lumber, which he was driving was struck by a train on a railroad crossing. Mr. Lansbherry was a native of Clearfield county and was not quite fifty years old. About twenty years ago he came to Centre county and en- gaged in farming in Spring township, later starting a milk route in Belle- fonte which he conducted a number of years. Three years ago last fall he sold out and going to Columbia coun- ty purchased a farm near the once fa- mous ostrich farm close to Blooms- burg. Mr. Lansberry was in Belle- fonte early in the winter and was en- thusiastic over his new home and his success in that place. He was married to Miss Emma Gross who survives with the following children: Dayton, who is married and lives near Bloomsburg; Mrs. Snell, of Clearfield; Mrs. Rishel, of Wilkes- Barre; William, Lawrence, Thomas and Mary, at home. He also leaves his parents and several sisters. Ar- rangements for the funeral are mot known at this writing. ERS ORGANIZE. Will Hold Big Automobile Show in Bellefonte Armory March 14-18. Seventeen automobile dealers in — The Centre Electric company CENTRE COUNTY AUTO DEAL- i NEWS PURELY PERSONAL. —Mr. and Mrs. W. Harrison Walker left Bellefonte Monday, expecting to spend the greater part of the week in Philadelphia. —Mrs. James Nolan, who spent most of ' the winter with her sister, Mrs. Julia Con- Centre county enjoyed a special din- ner at the Bush house on Tuesday evening and organized the Centre County Automobile Dealer’s Associa- ' tion and decided to hold an automo- bile show in the Bellefonte armory | March 14th to 18th. The officers chos- en for the new association are George A. Beezer, of Bellefonte, president; C. E. Snyder, of State College, vice president, and Charles R. Beatty, Bellefonte, secretary and treasurer. The association will take the place of the old Bellefonte Motor club, and its object is the legitimate protection of trade, as regards both the dealers and owners of cars. All legitimate deal- ers in Centre county are urged to join the association, which will be affiliat- ed with both State and national or- ganizations. The decision to hold a big auto show in the armory the second week in March is evidence that the new as- sociation is to become active right at the start of its existence. The show held in Bellefonte a year ago drew a large crowd and resulted in quite a number of sales, and there is every reason to believe that a show this year will also prove beneficial. Manufac- turers, agencies and dealers all over the country will be invited to place exhibits and this will enable all those contemplating the purchase of cars to examine the different makes and form their own judgment of the car they prefer. Remember the date of the show, March 14th to 18th, and make it a point to be there. tees pees se. Report of Needlework Guild.
