SMULLTON.
The Winkleblech saw mill was clos- :
ed down over hay making time.
Rebersburg now has a doctor, and
what this town needs is a lawyer.
Howard Orndorf and wife, of
Woodward, were over Sunday guests
a the home of W. M. Bierly.
Mrs. P. D. Winters was in State
College over Sunday to help attend
her son Edwin, who has been sick for
some time.
Hay making in this section is in full
bloom. We know that years ago no
one ever thought of cutting grass un-
til about the Saturday before the 4th
of July. It seems that seasons are
shorter, or the people get in more of
a hurry in this work.
Edgar A. Davis, a confessed boot-
legger, was appointed a prohibition
agent and said officials knew it when
he was appointed. The “Record”
states that he was recommended by a
minister of the gospel. The federal
government, it is said, will not inter-
fere in this appointment. We will not
comment, but let the reader judge for
himself.
The extended article appearing in
several papers under the heading of
Smullton, last week, was the talk of
the neighborhood and met with the
approval of people who know that the
conditions really exist as explained.
It goes against our grain to thus por-
tray the condition of things in our
town, but we quit lying several years
ago and will not get back into the old
rut again under any consideration.

Mrs. Harry Grove and family, of
Bellefonte, spent Sunday at the home
o Mrs. John Herman, mother of Mrs.
rove.
The children’s festival of the Meth-
odist church held last Saturday night
in Noll’s grove, was very liberally pa-
tronized. The total receipts aggregat-
ed $222.90. The same will be applied
to the renovating of the old cemetery,

funny fellow amounts to almost a ca-
lamity. Everybody laughs at him;
not in derision, of course, but at his
remarks. His smile sets a parlor full
of young folks to giggling, and a
glance from his eye will cause the av-
erage seminary girl to just die a-
laughing.
Berries grow and ripen on thorny
bushes, which people avoid except at

that the fruit is not of a merchantable

The sermon delivered by one of the
Chautauqua men on Sunday evening,
at Rebersburg, was very well render- |
ed and instructive.
“Great Men, or How to Become
Great.” Some people think they are |
great when they wear better clothes |
than others. Some because they have |
plenty of money. Some because they |
hold good positions. But the sermon |
of the evening was to the effect that
greatness consists of serving and not |
being served. This example was man- |
ifest in the washing of the disciples |
feet by our Lord and Master. He has |
commanded us to do likewise. The |
speaker of the evening emphasized .
the necessity of taking care of the |
children and we think in this matter |
so many people take pride. Children |
are looked upon with pride and as |
they grow older in years less atten- |!
tion is paid them and about the time |
they come to the point in their lives |
where they look for their hopes and |
ambitions to bear fruit and bring
them the joy that they need, some dir- |
ty, low-lived scoundrel will bring his
satanic majesty into play and blight |
and darken their path. Jesus said |
that “it were better that a millstone
were hanged about his neck and he |
had been drowned in the midst of the
sea.” How many homes are made
cheerless, and unhappy because of
some of these conditions. Henry Ford
on commenting on this subject is said
to have made the following statement:
“Many a person has become an out-
law and a criminal because he was
given no chance in life.” He further
stated that “if he were given the men
in Sing Sing prison, he would take
them into his factory, treat them
right, show them that he was inter-
ested in them and he would make men
out of them.”
His subject was, |
about by thorns.
America is great and grand, but the
The name or reputation of being a |
youthful of all creation is tender in
tissue and immature in judgment—fa-
natical and inflational. While she
partook of the matured intellect of the
Mother country, she was sober, stead-
fast and reliable, but her recent pro-
geny evidently lack the firmness and
wisdom that adorned their ancient
progenitors. The aged oak and the
tender sapling can both endure the
storm, but the permanence of the one
is far more inviting as a refuge than
the yielding vibration of the other.
