Items of Interest Dished Up for the
Delectation of “Watchman” Read-
ers by a Corps of Gifted
Correspondents.
PLEASANT GAP.
Mrs. John Uhl is visiting with her
sister, Mrs. William Sampsel, in Pitts-
burgh.
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Evey, of Hol-
lidaysburg, spent the week-end at the
hospitable home of Harry Griffith and
wife.
Mr. and Mrs. Paul Keller, accom-
panied by their daughter Betty, are
visiting with numerous friends at the
Gap and vicinity.
Miss Henrietta Gettig has accepted
2 position in Kalin’s shoe store, Belle-
fonte. From what we know of Henri-
etta we are satisfied she will make a
decided success in her new position.
Mr. William Rossman, one of our
most highly respected citizens, was
seriously ill with heart trouble the
past week. He is gradually improv-
ing, which is gratifying to his many
friends here.
Our progressive cattle buyer, T. E.
Jodon, will ship another car load of
fresh cows to the Philadelphia stock
yards in a few days; they are a very
attractive bunch, mostly blooded stock,
the kind that appeals to the eastern
buyers.
Mr. Searson, teacher of our inter-
mediate school, with his half a hun-
dred scholars, held an Hallow-een’
masquerade a few evenings ago. The
occasion was a very enjoyable one and
was admirably handled and highly ap-
preciated by all participants.
The W. C. T. U. of the Methodist
congregation here, held a numerously
attended masquerade party at the M..
FE. parsonage last week. It proved a
very interesting entertainment. The
object was to increase their member-
ship, and from current reports they
succeeded admirably in their ambi-
tions.
Our Sportsmen’s club is forging
ahead; they now number over seventy
members, and new applications com-
ing in weekly. And, best of all, the
aggregation consists of the better
class of our community. In fact they
don’t admit irresponsible parties, in
other words, they object to admit
every Tom and Harry, with a view of
increasing their membership.
The Ladies Aid society of the Meth-
odist church will hold a social in
Noll’s hall tomorrow evening. All are
cordially invited to attend. Our sis-
ters of the Ladies Aid are wide-awake
and up to date, self-relying and inde-
pendent. The multitude who will pa-
tronize them on this pleasant occasion
will make no mistake. A most agree-
able time is a foregone conclusion.
Our young Methodist minister, Rev.
Kepler, is taking a course in State
College. He is making good as min-
ister of our M. E. church. Glad to say
that he is beloved by his entire con-
gregation and the community at large.
He is endowed with great energy,
strong, practical, common sense, un:
common powers of observation, and
strong affection. Kind hearted, devo-
tional, and in every way a thorough
go-ahead personage. Such a person
will paddle his own canoe, and prove a
good and devoted public servant.
For some reason there seems to be
no enthusiasm in the coming guber-
natorial contest, and the indications
are that an unusually light vote will
be polled here. Not one candidate has
visited the Gap up to this time. On
former occasions candidates galore
were scouring the country, with a view
of winning the prize. With the tem-
perance men they were usually jubi-
lant in the praise of water, and he
would be willing to invoke the aid of
a flood to overwhelm and destroy all
who will not vote for his ticket. With
‘the wine and beer drinker, he could
drink and leave all his comrades un-
der the table. He is so familiar with
‘bad spirits, they spare him—I may
‘say, preserve him; he was sure of the
vote that bore the odor of alcohol.
‘Should he halt at the house of a pi-
ous family, he asked a blessing at the
table, read the scriptures and took the
lead in family devotions, watching his
.d—s for fear they might betray him
and cost him a constituency of christ-
‘jans. Such are the conditions. May
‘the time soon come when truth shall
‘thunder-all around the horizon and the
lighting of law strike and paralyze
the profane hand that touches with
fraud that ark of the covenant, the
“ballot box. Politics is a funny game.

This is a very familiar sentence to
many of us. However, many of our
neighbors are probably not aware of
the fact that we have in our communi-
ty a poor family that were without
bread for the weary space of two long
days. It seems distressingly hard that
suffering should be allowed to exist in
our community when a just God has
given us such a bounteous supply to
draw upon. A sweet faced little girl
called upon a young and charitably
disposed young lady and in sympathet-
ic tone made an appeal for bread. The
young lady in question was just get-
ting ready to go to the unveiling of
the soldier’s monument at Milesburg,
but, after hesitating, abandoned the
trip and invested her bus fare money
for bread to alleviate the sufferings
of the family that were driven to
want. The suffering family resides
within a quarter of a mile of one of
our overseers of the poor, but the
mother could not bear to ask the town-
ship for aid. Our overseer has a rep-
utation for being economical when it
comes to spending money too lavishly,
but it must be said to his credit that
he never allows any one to go to bed
hungry. On more than one occasion
has he been known to put his hand in
his pocket and aid deserving and needy
suffering humanity, and the township
was not: called upon to help to liqui-
date. This I call true charity. No
doubt as soon as our christian, the
philanthropist, and those who may be
favored with a bounteous store of the
goods of this earth, learn of this suf-
fering from want and poverty, relief
will be forthcoming. Church mem-
bers and christians should remember
the poor; the thought of their wants
and sufferings should lead them to the
observance of benevolent duties en-
joined upon them by the Savior they
profess to serve and worship, and by
the religion they profess to practice.
This is an opportune time for the
christian to show by his words that he
is not merely a professor, but an ex-
ampler of the doctrines inculcated by
the Savior. They should show their
love to suffering humanity, they
should extend a helping hand to their
less fortunate and less prosperous
neighbors. Christians are laborers to-
gether with God. Remember that the
benevolent man is the truly happy
man,
Great credit is due to the young la-
dy who deprived herself of a trip to
Milesburg and gave the money neces-
sary for the trip to these poor, needy
ones. It was a truly charitable and
commendable change of heart, and is
being highly appreciated by the good
people of the community.

Mrs. Howard Shuey, S. Water St.,
Bellefonte, says: “I had a severe at-

ached and pained so I could not get a

and I often had to neglect it. There
was a steady, dull aching over my
kidneys and I was hardly ever free
from headaches and dizzy spells. My
kidneys didn’t act right. I used
Doan’s Kidney Pills from the Parrish

away by stopping the backaches and

“Now boys,” said the schoolmaster,
“when I ask you a question you must
not be afraid to speak out and ans-
wer me. When you look around and
see all the fine houses, farms and
do you ever stop and think
who owns them now? Your fathers
own them do they not?”
“Yes, sir,” shouted the boys.
“Well, where will your fathers be
in thirty years from now?” asked the
teacher.
“Dead,” shouted the boys.
