Rally Day in United Evangelical
Church.
Rev. Reed O. Steely, pastor of the
United Evangelical church, reports
that the financial rally day observed
in their church on Sunday, October
29th, was a complete success in every
way. On Saturday evening previous
a banquet was held in the Sunday
school room which was attended by
more than one hundred members. S.
D. Gettig Esq., one of the trustees,
presided over the meeting. The male
quartette from the First church, Wil-
liamsport, composed of R. C. Sebring,
E. O. Wolfe, James F. Orwig and
Charles Maneval, with Ralph Seibert,
pianist, arrived in time for the ban-
quet, having been brought here by
John H. Wetzel in his Studebaker.
They were present all day Sunday and
rendered excellent service. Rev. G.
W. Currin, a retired minister located
at Williamsport, was the special
speaker of the day. Sterling K.
Crumbling and wife also accompanied
the above mentioned people and spent
the week-end in Bellefonte. The goal
of $1800.00, which had been set by
the minister, was quickly reached and
the giving still continued until the
amount pledged was $2100.00. The
pastor and people are greatly pleased
over the success and are already
planning for a greater occasion next
year.
Community Sale and Dollar Day.
In the excitement of the election
next week don’t overlook the fact that
the second big community sale and
dollar day will be held in Bellefonte
on Wednesday, November 29th. A
fair crowd attended the first commu-
nity sale held some weeks ago and
most of the stuff offered brought very
good prices. The fact that the mer-
chants of Bellefonte have decided to
co-operate with the sale management
and offer dollar day bargains should
result in bringing to Bellefonte a rec-
ord crowd. A big crowd will naturally
mean many more bidders at the sale
and this should be an inducement to
everybody who has anything they
wish to dispose of to bring it in.
At the last sale six automobiles
were offered and two sold. Most of
the stock was disposed of at satisfac-
tory prices while all the furniture sold
readily. From this it can be seen that
stock and furniture are the leaders at
a community sale. Remember the
date of the sale is less than a month
away and it is none too early to be-
gin getting your things in shape.
Tablet Unveiled at Centre Furnace
Site.
The building of the first iron fur-
nace in Centre county was commem-
orated on Monday afternoon when, be-
tablet on the old furnace at Thompson
spring was unveiled by officials of the
Pennsylvania State College and the
Pennsylvania Historical Commission.
The tablet was presented to The
Pennsylvania State College by George
P. Donehoo, secretary of the commis-
sion, and was received on behalf of
Sparks and Dr. A. E. Martin, head of
the department of history.
The following inscription on the
tablet gives a brief history of the fur-
nace:
“This stack is part of the plant of
the Centre Iron Company, erected in
1792 by Colonel John Patton and Col-
onel Samuel Miles, officers of the war
of the Revolution. It’s product was
the first iron smelted in Centre Coun-
ty and was carried on mule-back to
Pittsburgh. The furnace was operated
from 1825 to 18538.

mission and the Department of History

the side of the road running from
State College to Lemont and are
about a mile from the former. The
tablet placed upon it is the first to be
placed on an industrial landmark by
the Historical Commission, according
to Mr. Donehoo. who stated that up to
now the practice had been to mark the
scenes of massacres and the burial
places of famous soldiers.
The principal paper at the ceremo-
ny was that of Colonel Henry W.
Shoemaker, of McElhattan, a member
of the State Forestry Commission. He
was unable to be present, and his ad-
dress was read by Dean R. L. Watts,
of the College, who is president of
the Pennsylvania State Conservation
Council.
Hundreds of persons from surround-
ing towns and counties interested in
historic spots attended the ceremony.
Among those present was Mrs. James
Thompson, great, great, grand-niece
of Colonel Patton, builder of the fur-
nace. Mrs. Thompson lives in a
house not far from the furnace and in
a field behind the house under a pear
tree are buried the remains of Colonel
Patton, who was a member of Wash-
ington’s bodyguard and grandfather
of the late Congressman John Patton,
of Curwensville.
Mr. Thompson, who was also pres-
ent, stated that he remembered the
closing of the furnace in 1858. He
said that the iron from it was taken
by mule to Pittsburgh at a cost of $75
a ton or by canal boat out of Belle-
fonte. Much of the iron used in the
Pennsylvania railroad west of Harris-
burg came from the old furnace. In
Mr. Thompsan stated, this furnace
ties produced more iron than all other
districts of the United States com-
bined.
Little Game Killed on Wednesday.
The opening of the hunting season
on Wednesday was not prolific of good
results to the many hunters who ven-
tured forth to try their luck. Wild
turkeys are so scarce that none were
killed in this section so far as the
writer could ascertain and not a single
pheasant was bagged by Bellefonte
hunters. A few rabbits were secured
and a small number of squirrels were
brought down in various sections of
the county, but the number was lim-
ited.
Pleasant Gap hunters centered their
attention on rabbits, and with such
success that they bagged 38 up to
eleven o’clock in the morning.
The first bag of game we have
heard reported was that of Attorney
General Geo. E. Alter, Ammon Ker-
stetter and James Herron. They were
hunting on Nittany mountain, above
Peru and shot two wild turkeys and
four grey squirrel. The General and
Mr. Kerstetter each brought down a
gobbler and Mr. Herron had a splen-
did chance for a third but missed it.
Lester Musser, Dick and Joe Beezer,
of this place, and a companion from
Fillmore bagged fourteen rabbits be-
fore 10 o’clock and came home.
The woodlands were very dry and
this condition is unfavorable for bird
hunting, as it is almost impossible to
get within shooting distance of them.
Pine Grove Mills hunters went to
the woods on Wednesday for the open-
ing of the hunting season. The only
turkey killed was by Raymond Davis,
who got a fine gobbler. George Elder
and George Burwell each got their
limit of five squirrel. The Corl crowd
got 25 rabbits, the Dr. Krebs crowd
15 and the Sunday gang 8.
Fine Cast Coming in “Trovatore.”
“Tyrovatore” will be presented by
the Metropolitan Operatic association
at the opera house, Bellefonte, on
Monday night, November 6th. In a
laudable effort to realize fully this
most glorious of all of Verdi's operas,
its sponsors have nrade every effort to
assemble a cast that will measure up
to all the requirements. Judged by
the reviews that have been given the
performance in cities in which it has
been presented it would appear that
the desired result has been splendidly
obtained. The cast is headed by Mine.
Nelli Gardini, who is credited with be-
ing the best Leonora since Lillian
Nordica. The necessity for reliable
orchestral support is met by the or-
ganization carrying its own orchestra,
which is under the direction of the
distinguished French conductor Mau-
rice Poure.

CRUSE.—Mrs. Loda S. Cruse, wife
of Temp G. Cruse, passed away at her
home in Pittsburgh at nine o’clock on
Monday evening following a prolong-
ed illness. About a year ago she sub-
mitted to an operation as a means of
relief which, however, proved but tem-
| porary, and her death was the inevita-
ble result.
She was the only daughter of Wil-
liam S. and Annie Harter Musser and
was born at Millheim on March 10th,
1879, hence was in her forty-fourth
year. Her girlhood days were spent
at Millheim where she was educated
in the public schools. In September,
1897, she married Temp G. Cruse, of
Bellefonte, and the first ten years of
their married life were spent in this
place. Fifteen years ago they moved
to Pittsburgh where Mr. Cruse became
an employee in the Pitsburgh post-
office and is now superintendent of
mails in that city. Mrs. Cruse had
been a member of the Episcopal
church for a number of years. She
was a woman of pleasing personality
and had many sincere friends who
deeply regret her death.
Surviving her are her husband and
two children, Andrew W., who gradu-
| ated at the Annapolis Naval Acade-
{my in July and is now an ensign on
‘ the battleship Wyoming, and Virgin-
ia, at home. She also leaves her
father and step-mother, living at Mill-
heim, and two step-sisters, Mrs. Ada
Bowman, of New York city, and Mrs.
Henry White, of Millheim.
Funeral services were held in her
home church in Pitsburgh on Wednes-
day afternoon and yesterday the re-
mains were brought to Bellefonte on
the Pennsylvania-Lehigh train and
taken to the Episcopal church where
services were held by Rev. M. DePui
Maynard, after which burial was made
in the Cruse lot in the Union ceme-
tery.

Vegetable Display for Farmer’s Week.
Vegetable growers of Centre coun-
ty, who will attend winter farmer’s
week at The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege, on December 19th, will be inter-
ested in a display that is now being
gathered by the vegetable gardening
division of the department of horticul-
ture.
Cabbage plants grown on fifteen or
twenty different soils secured from
commercial plant growers out in the
State are to be exhibited along with
plants grown in soils containing vary-
ing amounts of sand. In this way, the
growers will have a chance to compare
their product with that which has been
grown in a soil of known composition.
The last winter farmer’s meeting at
State College was held in February,
1919, when it was decided to change
the time of meeting to June, at which
time a larger attendance’could be ac-
commodated at the college. Now,
however, there is room for two such
sessions a year, in summer and in win-
ter. The week this year opens with a
meeting on Monday evening, Decem-
ber 18th, and closes at noon the
Thursday following. Centre county
farmers who are unable to spend
more than one day at the College dur-
ing Farmer's week will find even such
a limited visit well worth the time
given it.

William I. Betts for Efficiency, Economy and Reform
The people have made real sacrifices for their government and
they will not be controlled any longer by a set of political bosses.
This political campaign is a battle for the freedom of the government
away from the control by political rings.
The old erder has passed
away and now they are going to exercise their free and untrammeled
rights guaranteed to them under the constitution. The issues at stake
are clean cut and the voters will decide for themselves the kind of
government they desire to live under, and not the kind of government
that the political boss has been giving the people of Pennsylvania.
Economy, Efficiency, Reform and Welfare Legislation is what the peo-
ple are demanding and to rid themselves of a political system which
has grown up in this State, utterly disregarding the rights and welfare
of all the people.
Public opinion is looking for the greatest possible
service from all departments of our government and to see our Com-
monwealth returned to the control of the people.
The people want a
government that will really serve in the highest sense of the word.
The people of Pennsylvania desire a clean government and clean poli-
tics.
They are opposed to political trickery and underhand methods.
They believe politics should be as clean as their churches, their homes
and the kindred organizations to which they belong.
Political Adv.

Modocs Celebrate 50th Anniversary.
The hunting season is now on and
anything pertaining thereto is timely
and interesting. It was probably be-
cause of this fact that the Modoc
hunting club, of Boalsburg, celebrated
the fiftieth anniversary of its organ-
ization last Saturday evening when
the Ladies Civic club of that town
furnished the members, their wives
and guests with a delicious banquet,
chicken having the place of honor on
the menu. A pleasant feature of the!
gathering was the presence of the two
surviving charter members,
Meyers, of Boalsburg, aged 73 years,
and George Martz, of Lemont, aged
80. Both gentlemen detailed reminis-
cences of the early days of the club
and each of the veterans was present-
ed with a handsome woolen sweater to
wear on this year’s hunt, as both ex-
pect to take the trail December first.
The guests present included Mr. and
Mrs. J. B. Krebs, of Northumberland;
Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Lauver, of Altoo-
na; Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Bailey and
Robert Bailey and wife, of Boalsburg;
Samuel Hess and wife, of State Col-
lege; Frank Bailey and J. B. Mayes,
of Milton; John Mokle, of Howard; W.
J. Bloom and wife, of Northumber-
land; John Hess, of Altoona; Mr. and
Mrs. C. Ellis Thompson and Mr. and
Mrs. W. A. Wagner, of Juniata. Oth-
er guests were Miss Beulah Fortney
and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Faxon, of
Boalsburg; Mrs. Henry Krebs, of
Pine Grove Mills; Alfred Lyle and
Mrs. Harry Lonebarger, both of State
College; Miss Grace Jenkins, of Mil-
ton; William Lauver, Frank Lind, Mrs.
J. P. Wagner and Miss Marjory Sla-
gle, all of Altoona.
On Sunday the entire rarty, with
the exception of Mr. and Mrs. Wag-
ner, visited the combortable Modoc
hunting lodge on Stone creek, Hunt-
ingdon county, taking dinner there
and enjoying a fine autumn day in the
open.
The club will assemble for its fif-
tieth annual hunt on December 1st,
with a personnel of the sixteen mem-
bers and with Charles Faxon, of
Boalsburg; G. W. Shaffer, of Altoona,
and a Mr. Hoofnagle, of Milton, as
guests.

burgh, the strongest Freshman team
in the history of the University, will
clash with the strong Academy eleven.
It will be a game worth coming miles
to see. The visitors are coached by a
former Academy athletic star, Dr.
Cliff Carlson, who played four years
on “Pitts” champion varsity team, and
captained it in his senior year. The
Academy will play their hardest to
defeat this team, and that means that
the crowd will be treated to a battle
royal. Remember the date, Friday,

was done. The committee on place of
meeting reported in favor of Philips-

Mrs. George W. Zeigler, of Philips-
burg, gave an interesting report of
the bi-ennial conference at Chautau-
