Doings at the “Y.”
The committee appointed at the last
meeting to nominate men for a per-
manent board of directors have post-
ed a list of names for directors and
trustees. The election will be held on
Monday, April 24th, from 2 to 9 p. m.
Members are requested to call and cast
their ballots at that time. Soon after
the election a meeting will be called
and officers chosen and committees ap-
pointed.
Baseball plans are now being made
for the boys and with prospect of a
place to play in sight considerable en-
thusiasm is already manifest. The
national game is always a popular
sport and some great times are in
store for the boys this summer. The
physical director is also making plans
for both baseball and track events
after the close of the gym classes this
month.
An exhibition of the physical activ-
ities will be held in the gymnasium
Friday evening, April 28th. Repre-
sentatives of all the classes will par-
ticipate and an interesting program is
being arranged.
Hiking is proving quite popular
among the boys, and from the way
they are already taking to it, it will
doubtless be one of the leading activ-
ities this summer. Trips have been
made to the Eagle’s Nest, Point Me-
Coy and the House of Lords.
The bowlers have chipped in and
purchased four new sets of pins for
the alleys and presented them to the
Y. They are adding greatly to the in-
terest and higher scores. Go and see!
the men enjoy the game.
Boalsburg Boy Scout News.
The Boalsbug Boy Scouts had a
good turnout at their meeting last
Wednesday evening. Eugene Charles,
Frank Roberts, Nevin Fisher and Ab-
ner Acker have completed their sec-
ond-class requirements. A few of the
boys have started their first class re- |
quirements, one of which is a fourteen
. mile hike. The trip last Thursday
evening was a success. The boys |
went up to the foot of the mountain
and took the last of the second-class
requirements, which consisted of
tracking and cooking. Scout master
Paul Coxey, with a scout assistant,
went into the woods and made a trail
by marking trees and bushes and pil-
ing stones. Ten minutes later the
troop started on the trail and had no
trouble finding them.
The cooking requirement consisted
of cooking meat and baking potatoes
over an open fire without the ordinary
utensils. Most of the boys succeeded
fairly well in doing this. A number
of new members have been added and
it will soon be necessary to organize
another patrol. The troop now con-
sists of three patrols, with the follow-
ing officers: Scoutmaster, Paul Cox-
ey, with Mr. Weller his assistant.
Richard Goheen, secretary, and Ken-
neth Ishler, treasurer. The patrol
leaders are Richard Goheen, Russell
Bohn and Charles Ream. An assist-
ant secretary will be elected at the
next meeting. Paul Roberts has been
chosen scout scribe.
Bellefonte Boy Scout News,
Our Troop, No. 1, of Bellefonte,
had no meeting last Friday night, but
expect to have an out-door meeting
‘tomorrow afternoon. A committee
was chosen to select a place to go.
The stag patrol, under the permission
of the scoutmaster, took a hike Satur-
day to the old Masonic camp near
Curtin, They had many misfortunes,
one boy falling into the creek, who
fortunately got out all right. We are
glad to know that the Troop recently
started in Boalsburg is writing for the
paper. Our Troop would like to play
them baseball. Do not forget about
jobs. If you have any call Bell 306,
or Mr. Maynard, at the Bush house.

KELLER.—The venerable Jacob
Keller, one of the best known and
most highly respected citizens of Fer-
guson township, passed away at his
home in Pine Grove Mills at ten
o'clock on Sunday evening as the re-
sult of arterio-sclerosis, with which he
had suffered for many months.
Squire Keller, as he was more fa-
miliarly known, was a son of Jacob
and Mary Bottorf Keller, early set-
tlers near old Monroe furnace, where
he was born on June 23rd, 1843, hence
was not quite seventy-nine years old.
His boyhood life was spent on the
farm but when he grew to manhood
he learned the carpenter’s trade, an
occupation he followed until 1900,
when he embarked in the coal busi-
ness at Pine Grove Mills. When his
health failed several years ago he
turned the business over to his son,
John Keller, and had since lived a re- |
tired life. He served three terms as a
justice of the peace in Ferguson town-
ship and was re-elected for the fourth
term but was compelled to resign on
account of failing health. He was a
life-long member of the Lutheran
church and served as a trustee for a
number of years. Politically he was
a Democrat of the true-blue type and
never missed an election. He was al-
ways among the first to identify him-
self with any movement that was in-
augurated for the betterment of the
community in which he lived.
On March 5th, 1868, he married
Miss S. Jane Irvin and for fifty-four
years they trod life’s pathway side by
side. Twelve children were born to
them seven of whom preceded their
father to the grave. Those surviving
are Irvin H., J. Milton and William
W. Keller, all of Pittsburgh; John, of
Pine Grove Mills, and Miss Etta, at
home with her mother. He also leaves
one sister, Mrs. Mary Stopping, of
Newark, N. J., as well as twenty-one
grand children and one great grand-
child.
Funeral services were held in the
Lutheran church at ten o’clock on Wed-
nesday morning by Rev. Wilson P.
Ard, of Bellefonte, after which burial
was made in the new cemetery.

Booth and was born at Pine Hall in
1859, hence was about 63 years old.

ian church at Graysville for forty
years and until her health failed was
always-a regular attendant. In 1882
she married J. Frank Gates, of Penn-
sylvania Furnace, and practically all
their married life was spent on a
farm in Ferguson township. Just last
month they quit the farm and moved
{to a comfortable home in Stormstown,
but Mrs. Gates did not survive long to
enjoy it.
In addition to her husband she is
survived by two children, William, of
near Bellefonte, and Mrs. Belle Bul-
lock, of Centre Line. She also leaves
