PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, the 8rd annual Elks Har-
low-een’ carnival and Mummers pa-
rade will take place in Bellefonte, Pa.,
on Tuesday evening, October 31st,
1922; and,
Whereas, it is the desire of all par-
ticipating to properly care for the
safety of the public and to make this
year’s carnival and parade a greater
sucess than that of a year ago; and,
pair silk hose, A. C. Mingle; 3rd, 5 one
Whereas, to insure absolute safety
not only to participants but to specta-
tors, it is necessary to limit for a
short time the traffic and parking
privileges upon and over certain por-
tions of our streets;
Now therefore, by virtue of and in
conformity with a certain ordinance of
our borough approved May 6th, 1914,
1 do hereby proclaim and direct that
the following portions of streets be
and they are hereby closed to traffic
and parking privileges October 31st,
1922, between the hours of 6 o’clock
and 10 o’clock p. m., viz.:
Bishop street from Ridge to Spring,
Spring street from High to Howard,
Howard street from Allegheny to
Spring, Allegheny from Linn to Lo-
gan, High street from Diamond to P.
R. R. crossing. :
Certain practices indulged in in pre-
vious years in the defacement of
property and destruction of same will
be considered disorderly conduct and
the police will be directed to arrest
any person whom they detect thus en-
gaged.
The celebration of Hallow-een’ is
intended to occur at the time and on
the date above stated. Marking of
buildings with chalk, smearing of win-
dows with soap, and removal of prop-
erty from porches will not be tolerat-
ed, and guilty parties will be arrested
if discovered by the police.
It is therefore respectfully suggest-
ed that all parties cheerfully conform
to the requests herein made and to the
provisions of this proclamation.
By your actions make it unnecessa-
ry for any one to complain of any in-
fractions in any way relating to traffic
and parking privileges or to the com-
mission of acts which will be regard-
ed as disorderly.
Given under my hand at Bellefonte,
Pa., this 24th day of October A. D.,

—— On his way home from school
at noon on Wednesday James Saxion,
eight year old son of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Saxion, was knocked down
and painfully injured on the head by
a delivery truck driven by Herman
Hazel. Officer Glenn witnessed the
accident and completely exonerates
the driver from all blame as the boy
ran from the pavement directly in
front of the truck. In this connection
parents should warn their children of
the necessity of observing greater
caution on their way to and from
school, as it is impossible for drivers
of cars to stop dead within a few feet.
Somewhere!
Somewhere within the travel
distance of the “Watchman” is a
lonely, middle-aged woman look-
ing for a home where services
will be appreciated and amply
rewarded. This is not a servant
girl proposition. A suitable com-
panion and helper in the home is
what we want and will pay for.
We are Pennsylvanians and the
woman acceptable to us will con-
sider this home her home and con-
form accordingly. Address

The Central Refractories Co. Merger
Has Gone Through.
The merger of the plants of the
Centre Brick and Clay Co., at Orvis-
ton, the Snow Shoe Fire Brick Co., at
Snow Shoe and the plants at Moxa-
hollow, New Lexington and Newark,
Ohio, has been effected to operate un-
der the name of The Central Refrac-
tories Co.
In effecting this combination all of
the common stock issued on the Centre
county plants has been wiped out and
holders of their preferred are to be
given one share of preferred 87% stock
and one-half share of common in the
new company for each share of pre-
ferred turned in. About 90% of the
stock of the Centre county companies
has already been deposited with the
Bellefonte Trust Co., in this place.
The general offices of the new com-
pany will be located in the Forest
building, Columbus, Ohio, and the new
officers are: C. B. Young, Columbus,
president; O. J. Harm, Snow Shoe,
vice president; Ives L. Harvey, Belle-
fonte, secretary; W. W. Connell, New-
ark, Ohio, treasurer.
Y. M. C. A. Membership Campaign.
The membership campaign of the
Bellefonte Y. M. C. A. launched last
Friday has so far resulted in enrolling
quite a number of new members but
not the maximum desired. Every man
in Bellefonte who has the interests of
the Association at heart should join
now.
The Y. M. C. A. last week demon-
strated that it is a worthwhile insti-
tution. Following the men’s banquet
on Thursday night, which was attend-
ed by over one hundred and fifty peo-
ple, the Y girls gave a playlet on Fri-
day evening that was largely attend-
ed and which netted the association
almost fifty dollars.
Saturday afternoon a large group
of boys and girls enjoyed a free movie
show in the gymnasium which includ-
ed “A Trip to the Moon,” Bobby
Bumps cartoon and Harold Lloyd in
«The Fortune Teller” and “The Isle of
Cuba.”
The members of the Senior class are
getting ready for the basket ball sea-
san and are whipping a team into
shape to play senior teams from other
Associations and schools.
Join the Y and get in on the many
good things it will offer during the
winter season.

Early Sunday Morning Fire at Centre
Hall.
Centre Hall had a costly fire on
Sunday morning when flames devour-
ed the wareroom in the rear of the
Charles M. Smith store, located in the
building owned by the Centre Hall
Lodge of Odd Fellows, and badly dam-
aged the main building and all its con-
tents. The building in question was
formerly the Harper & Kreamer
property, located on Main street, and
was occupied by the Smith general
store and John Coldren’s pool room,
while the residence in connection with
the building was occupied by Mr.
Smith and family. On the second
floor was a hall occupied jointly by
the Odd Fellows, the Rebekahs and the
Order of the Eastern Star. Mr. and
Mrs. Smith were in Chicago at the
time and their two children were at
the homes of friends in Centre Hall.
The store was in charge of John Web-
er and Thomas Moore while the
Smiths were away.
The fire started about two o’clock in
the morning and was discovered by
Will Smith and Mrs. Flora Bairfoot,
when they were on top of the moun-
tain on their way home from Belle-
fonte. They drove rapidly down the
mountain and as they entered Centre
Hall yelled “fire.” Miss Helen Bar-
tholomew was awakened by their
cries and hastily donning some cloth-
ing ran down stairs, got into her car
and drove through the town awaken-
ing the firemen.
The fire threatened the destruction
of the entire building and an appeal
was made to Bellefonte for help.
The Undines responded with their
pumper and hose truck, and about a
dozen men. When they arrived on the
scene they found the Centre Hall fire-
men hard at work with one stream of
water who had succeeded in keeping
the flames in check though they had
eaten into the walls of the building
and the Undines were compelled to
chop holes in the building to get at
the flames. They put two streams on
the building and materially assisted
the Centre Hall firemen in extinguish-
ing the flames.
Paul Haag, one of the Undine fire-
men, was injured by a burning rafter
falling on his head and was brought
to the Bellefonte hospital, but his con-
dition was not serious. A watch dog
owned by Mr. Smith and chained to a
counter in the store, smothered to
death with the dense smoke.
The loss on the building is estimat-
ed at $5,000, mostly covered with in-
surance. Mr. Smith’s loss is estimat-
ed at $20,000, partially covered. Mr.
Coldren had insurance to cover his
loss, as did the Odd Fellows and Or-
der of the Eastern Star but the Lodge
of Rebekahs had no insurance.
How the fire originated is of course
unknown. It started in the basement
of the warehouse and the fact that
there had been no fire near there leads
some people to suspect incendiarism,
but this is only a theory.
An Excellent Educational Program
Offered to the General Public by
the Woman’s Club.
The Woman’s club will offer a series
of lectures as the program for this
winter. These lectures have been
made possible through the courtesy of

Modern World,’—Professor Dunaway.

ties.””—Dr. Tanyer.

ject to be announced.

there will be an added attraction as
Sub-
Dr. C. J. Hollister, chief of the Dental
Division, State Department of Health,
will talk from 7:30 to 8 o’clock, when
Professor Dunaway is scheduled.
These lectures will be given in the
High school auditorium and are open
to the public. The business meetings
of the Club will be held at another
time that they may not interfere with
the educational program and it is
hoped that there will be a large at-
tendance throughout the course.
Win State Scholarships.
Winners of the McAllister scholar-
ships at The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege have been announced by Dean A.
R. Warnock, dean of men at that in-
stitution. This honor is given each

Child Killed at Philipsburg.
Frederick T. Long, eighteen months
old son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Long,
of Philipsburg, was run down by an
automobile driven by Mrs. Jack Wal-
lin, last Friday afternoon, and injur-
ed so badly that he died at the Cot-
tage State hospital without regain-
ing consciousness. The child had gone
out onto the street while its mother
had gone to feed her chickens and ran
in front of the automobile just as it
rounded a street corner. The funeral
was held on Monday afternoon.

——James B. Krape has up to date
sold two hundred tickets for the Belle-
fonte hospital card party, which cost
fifty cents each, netting a profit to the
hospital of $100.00. The money has
been turned in to Mrs. Brouse, and Mr.
Krape wishes to thank all who so gen-
erously responded. He still has some
tickets out that have not been turned
in, and with what have been promised
will make close to another hundred
tickets. This is a worthy cause, and
is deserving of the attention of the
public. Mr. Krape is seeing how much
he can raise for the hospital.
Bellefonte Tax Payers.
Remember that October 31st is the
last day to pay county and borough
taxes, in order to save five per cent.
I expect a better response from the
tenant and single list tax payers, as
the school duplicates show that they
forgot the payment of their school
tax. Remember all taxes will be col-
lected within the time limit.
