— The regular session of Decem-
ber term of court will be held next
week. No very important cases are
up for trial and the sessions will hard-
ly last the week through.
— A blind man’s eye is naturally
supposed to be a bad eye, but by read-
ing the new serial to be started in this
paper next week, “The Blind Man's
Eye,” you will probably learn more
about it.
— Former postmaster S. W.
Smith, of Centre Hall, has been
awarded the contract for carrying the

postoffice in that town, making his
first trips on Wednesday.
— According to manager Elliott
Lane the “Watchman” was misin-
formed last week as to the cause of
the fire at the Imperial gas tanks on
Tuesday, which he says was not caus-
ed by a cigarette stump but by a spark
from the electric pump.
-——Don’t forget to attend the sale

At a recent meeting of the Cen-
tre county Farm Bureau executive
committee a resolution was adopted

— Penn State went down in de-
feat at the hands of the Pitt panthers
on Thanksgiving day by the score of
14 to 0. The State warriors held Pitt
during the first half but were unable
to keep up the good work and the
Pittsburgh kickers scored in both the
third and fourth periods. State’s
team will now begin work for its trip
to the Pacific coast.
——The brick work on J. O. Hev-
erly’s new building on Allegheny
street has been completed and every
effort will be made to get it under
roof before snow falls. With that ac-
complished and heat installed the in-
terior can be completed during the
winter. The foundations for the Har-
ter building adjoining the Heverly
building have been completed but the
brick work will not be done until next
spring.
Only fourteen more shopping
days until Christmas but that is no
reason why you shouldn’t spend your
evenings at the Scenic watching the
motion pictures. Two hours enter-
taining relaxation every evening will
relieve your mind of the vexatious
worries of holiday buying and you can
start out with renewed energy and |
fresh for another day in the shops.
Remember every evening’s program
is worth seeing.
——Special gift boxes of food,
clothing, candy, toys, dry goods, books,
etc., will be shipped Thursday, De-
cember 14th, by St. John’s Lutheran

others who wish to contribute any-
thing to this splendid piece of holiday
work may leave their gifts in the
church basement Monday, Tuesday or
Wednesday of next week.
One of the largest legal papers
ever entered for record in Centre
county is a mortgage for four million
dollars executed by the General Re-
fractories company in favor of the
Commercial Trust company, of Phila-
delphia, to secure bonds for that
amount issued by the company in tak-
ing over the various brick plants in
this and other counties. The mort-
gage fills over one hundred and fifty
typewritten pages in the docket. It
has been entered for record in Centre,
«Clinton, Clearfield, Blair and Hunt-
“J/ingdon counties, as well as in counties
iin Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois and
* Wisconsin. The total of the recording
; i5es will run into thousands of dol-
‘lars.
~—The painters have almost fin-
ished their work on the interior of the
First National bank of Bellefonte
then all that will remain to do will be
a thorough cleaning out and placing
«of the new furniture, From all ap-
pearances the remodeled bank will be
_in shape to take over before Christ-
“mas and it goes without saying that
«every member of the force will be glad
$0 get back. The marked changes
which have been made in the interior
arrangement almost doubles the work-
ing space behind the counters as well }
as the lobby of the bank for the ac-
commodation of its numerous patrons.
Practically all the interior finishing is
in marble and bronze, while the floor
in the working portion of the bank is
of cork. Every equipment will be the
most modern obtainable so that the
bank will compare favorably with any
institution in the central part of the
State.
MANY BUCKS SLAUGHTERED.
Biggest Kill of Deer Ever Recorded
in First Week of Season.
Twenty-five or thirty years ago, be-
fore the days of the drastic game laws
| for the protection of deer, the old
Gentzel hunting club would come in
with a wagon load of deer, the spoils
of several week’s hunt in the Green
woods. This year a dozen hunting
parties got their limit of six deer the
first few days of the season hunting in
the Seven mountains and the total
slaughter is perhaps greater than in
any season two decades ago. Of
course in those days anything in the
shape of a deer was fodder for the
hunter’s gun, but with bucks the only
legal deer to kill the does are pre-
served for propagation purposes, and
that is the big reason why the kill of
bucks is so large.
And it is almost impossible for a buck
to escape. In Centre county alone al-
most 5,500 hunter’s licenses have been
granted and, while not every man who
took out a license is out after deer, it
is a safe guess that the big majority
of them will be on the trail at least a
portion of the time during the season.
In addition, hunting parties from al-
most every section of the State from
Philadelphia to Pittsgurgh are scat-
tered over Centre county mountains,
and it is a wily buck, indeed, that is
able to evade the horde of hunters and
live through the fifteen days of the
season.
| Of course, with such an army of
| hunters in the woods some does are
| sure to fall prey to the over-anxious
| hunter, and the number so far this
i year is in excess of any former years.
In fact so many does have been killed
| in one way or another that the Belle-
{ fonte hospital is overstocked and on
{ Monday three deer were sent from
i Bellefonte to Philipsburg for use at
| the Cottage State hospital. Up to
i last Saturday three does had been re-
| ceived in Bellefonte consigned to the
hospital, and on Saturday five more
i and two bucks with invisible spikes
| were brought in. Monday added four
i more, one of which was a buck, the
seventh killed by a hunting party in
' mistake. While the party was not li-
| able for the fine they were compelled
under the law to surrender the deer.
; Two of the does brought in had brok-
en necks the result of becoming en-
| tangled in wire fences while fleeing
| from the hunters. Most of the ille-
| gally killed deer were from the Seven
mountain section, although two or
"three came from the Alleghenies.
i All the deer brought in for the hos-
pital were sent to Gettig’s meat mar-
ket to be skinned and dressed and it
i might be of interest to the public to
know that every deer skin, head, etc,
must be sent to the Game Commission
in Harrisburg with the tag attached
telling where they were found and by
, whom. If the butcher wishes any of
the skins for tanning or any other
purpose he can buy them from the
Game Commission for $1.50 apiece.
At this writing it is impossible to
give an accurate count or even esti-
mate of the number of deer that
have been killed, but the following
will show the success of some of the
hunting parties:
| The Bradford hunting party, of
, Centre Hall, got their limit on Mon-
' day and returned home Tuesday.
The Sweetwood party, of Georges
valley, also got their limit on Mon-
! day.
The Decker valley hunters encamp-
ied at the John Decker farm, got their
limit on Monday. ]
| The Coburn crowd, hunting on the
lower end of the Seven mountains, got
their limit the first day of the season.
The Woodward Rod and Gun club
hunted all day on Friday, and while
| they saw many deer did not get one.
| On Saturday they bagged three. Ed-
{itor T. H. Harter, of Bellefonte, was
| with the club on its first two day’s
hunt.
The Roaring Run club camped on
the mountain south of Pine Grove
Mills, had their limit by Saturday
noon. Two of their deer were four
pronged bucks, two three pronged, one
two pronged and one a spike buck.
The Charter Oak crowd and a party
from Hollidaysburg each had two on
Saturday evening.
Among the lucky hunters on the oth-
er side of the mountain was Lester
Sheffer, of Milroy, who got a fine buck
on the opening day.
A party of Blair county hunters got
three the first two days hunting in
the neighborhood of Pennsylvania
Furnace.
Controller Ray Smith and Dr. Fred
Robinson, of State College, joined Al
Grazier and party of Tyrone friends,
twenty-four hunters in all, in a day
hunt near the Grazier place in Hunt-
ingdon county. They got three before
noon on Friday and one in the after-
noon.
But one of the best stories of all
has to do with a half dozen State Col-
lege students. When the reports
came in on Friday regarding the
good luck the hunters were having
many of the students decided to get
some venison for themselves. Se bor-
rowing guns they trudged over to the
Seven mountains on Saturday and by
noon six of them were back at the Col-
lege each with a buck.
L. H. Gettig and party returned
from the Seven mountains on Tuesday
afternoon with their limit of six
bucks. During the first two days of
the season they got only one but on
Monday they bagged four and on the
first drive Tuesday morning got the
other one.
The Slack party, of Centre Hall,
came out of the woods on Tuesday
with six deer, having shot two the first
day, two on Saturday and two on
Monday. They were located at Stone
mountain.
Day hunters from Centre Hall and
vicinity to the number of eighteen
have so far brought in three deer, one
of which was shot by Charles Arney.
The Modock club, of Boalsburg,
bagged seven deer in the first eigh-
teen hours of the hunt. The extra
deer was shot by mistake on the last
drive and was promptly reported and
turned over to a game warden for de-
livery to the Bellefonte hospital. With
his usual luck Samuel M. Hess
brought down the biggest buck, one
with ten points. Two of the others
had eight points and two six.
Up in the western end of the coun-
ty James Kline has the honor of
bringing in the first deer on the open-
ing day, a six pronged buck by 8:30
o’clock in the morning.
The Woodrow Wilson club, mostly
from Pine Grove Mills, got their lim-
it and were home by Saturday night.
The Pine Grove Rod and Gun club
have 3.
y The Grazier crowd in Kail Hollow,
The Roosevelt Juniors at the Me-
Cormick springs 6.
Shamokin hunters on Stone moun-
tain, 2 deer and a bear.
The Lightner crowd at Old Monroe
furnace 5.
2 The Holmes party, of State College,
The State College Rod and Gun
club 3.
The Pine Hall crowd 2.
The Scotia crowd 1.
The Gearhart party 1.
Bellwood hunters 2.
The Fleetfoot club 3 deer and a wild
cat. This club entertained a large
crowd at a chicken and duck dinner on
Sunday at their camp south of Shin-
gletown.
The Riley crowd,
have 5.
The Raymond crowd 6.
The Zeigler party 6.
The Cadman group 1.
The Fillmore party 6.
Day hunters who got their deer in-
clude Ed Isenburg and Mr. Manning,
who both shot their buck on the Ham-
ill Goheen farm near Baileyville on
Saturday morning. Guy and Fred
Rossman each got one.
The best story of the season comes
from Potters Mills. A party of hunt-
ers stopped at the hotel there and on
the opening day went about a mile in-
to the mountain and shot a buck.
They carried it back to the hotel and
while they were dressing it another
buck came down off the mountain and
got caught in a wire fence. One of
the men in the party shot it and it
was carried in. About ten minutes
later another buck came down on the
other side of the town and it also got
caught in a wire fence. Another
member of the party shot it, so that
the crowd got three without any hard
work.
While it is impossible to give the
correct number of deer killed during
the first week Forester McKinney re-
ports in his district alone, in the Sev-
en mountains, 113 bucks and 9 does
have been brought to earth.
Harry Peters, a Ferguson township
youth, shot a buck on Tuesday near
the Glades school house.
The Sunday—Rossman crowd came
in on Tuesday with their limit of six.
The Waddle hunting club came in
from the Bear Meadows with six.
The total deer killed in the Coburn
district is given as 25; in the Wood-
ward district 17 and in the Brush
mountain district 22.
There is hardly any question but
that the Seven mountains are today
the best deer territory in Pennsylva-
nia. Years ago the Alleghenies were
the favorite hunting grounds but
hunters don’t meet with the success
there that those do who go to the Sev-
en mountains. As an example, the
Redding party hunting on Pine Run
have only 1.
The Chambers—Uzzle party 2.
The Houser party 1.
The McCloskey gang 3.
Viehdorfer party at Pine Glenn 2.
The Yarnell—McMullen party in
Sugar valley have 1.
The Weaver crew, of Hublersburg,
came home from the Bear Meadows
on Wednesday with 6.
Yesterday a resident of Pine Grove
Mills whose name could not be learn-
ed telephoned to the Bellefonte hos-
pital and asked if they would take a
wild turkey. He stated that there
was a big gobbler in his back yard
and if they could use it he would kill
it and send it down. Just how the
gobbler got there is unknown at this
writing but if it reaches the hospital
according to the man’s promise it will
be refrigerated and kept for the
Christmas dinner at that institution.

“Orphans of the Storm.”
The lavishness and splendors among
the aristocracy of the French Revo-
lutionary period are historically por-
trayed in “Orphans of the - Storm,”
the new D. W. Griffith picture sensa-
tion adaptation of “The Two Or-
phans.”
Glittering courts, splendid dream-
like fetes in silvered gardens, foun-
tains of wine, cathedral doors and
far away spires, corot-like forest
vistas, squalid underground vaults,
great public squares maddened
hordes dancing the Carmagnole in the
lawless streets of Paris, silk clad
grand-dames with monumental white
wigs, barricade battles between hun-
gering mobs and bayonet-bristling
lines of infantry, frenzied dashes of
cavalry through narrow lanes; and
peaceful countrysides. Of all these,
“Orphans of the Storm” is a marvel-
ous panorama—take it on the word
of already convinced reviewers.

Elk’s Memorial Services.
The Bellefonte Lodge of Elks was
organized about fifteen years ago and
since that time thirty-three members
have passed away. In accordance
with the usual custom memorial serv-
ices were held for the deceased mem-
bers, in Petrikin hall on Sunday after-
noon at three o'clock. Grand exalted
ruler G. Oscar Gray presided and mu-
sic appropriate to the occasion was
furnished by a selected choir. The ad-
dress was delivered by Rev. David ER.
Evans, pastor of the Presbyterian
church. In his talk he eulogized the
order in general for its charitable and
benevolent character and spoke par-
ticularly of the good work done by the
local lodge year after year. He also
spoke of the contemplated drive for
the Bellefonte hospital and suggested
that it would be a great help if the
Bellefonte lodge would assist in the
drive.

C., and her sister, Mrs. H. M. Crossman,
of Norristown, are expected in Bellefonte
within a few days, for a visit with their
mother, Mrs. J. Y. Dale, who is ill at the
home of her son, Dr. David Dale. It was
hoped that Liuet. Col. Frederick A. Dale,
of Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., could join the
family party, but his transfer to Ontario
makes his coming doubtful. Mrs. Cross-
man arrived in Bellefonte last night.
: When you are thinking what to
give Him, think of Fauble’s and then
forget it until you get here. We will
make it easy for you. 48-1t

Centre County Man buys Airplane
for $500.
Henry Noll, proprietor of Noli’s
garage at Pleasant Gap, has invested
in an airplane and is the first man in
Centre county to own a flying ma-
chine, The main reason for his buy-
ing the same was most likely the fact
that he got it dirt cheap, paying just
$500 for it. It is a Curtiss plane man-
ufactured in Canada and more gener-
ally known as “Canuck” or “Canadian
Jenny.” The machine was purchased
from a Mr. Fleming, at Brookville,
who had used it for exhibition pur-
poses.
Mr. Noll secured the services of
aviator Slim Lewis to bring the plane
to its new home and they both went
to Brookville on Sunday. Lewis gave
the machine a pretty thorough exam-
ination and finally decided it would fly
to Bellefonte, but he refused to allow
Noll to come along as a passenger. He
left Brookville shortly after three
o’clock on Monday afternoon and it
was a quarter after five o’clock in the
evening when he landed on the avia-
tion field. He came through without
any mishap but averred he could al-
most have pulled the machine as fast
as it flew. The machine is in fair
shape but the motor has done about
one hundred hour’s service and needs
overhauling. It-is still at the avia-
tion field as the new owner will prob-
ably want to take some lessons in fly-
ing before he tries it out.
