Dr. Eloise Meek Describes Her Im-
pression of Seward, Seaport
Town of Alaska.
Anchorage, Alaska.
Sunday, November 5, 1922.
My dear Home Folk:
And now I think Ill tell you about
my trip to Seward for, as I intend to
take the boat from here when I leave
Alaska and know that the scenery be-
tween Anchorage and Seward is con-
sidered good, I readily agreed to Miss
Reat’s suggestion that we spend Sun-
day at Seward.
We got off at 12:30 p. m., on a very
beautiful day. The road-bed lies for
a way right along the water edge of
Cook Inlet and, in many places, the
high-tide water swishes through the
rocks under the track. The scenery
is truly all that has been claimed for
it. Immense boulders rise directly
from the water and the mountains
seem to be so near that one could
throw a stone across and it is here
that the tide is the second highest in
the world. A whale had been caught
and washed into this narrow inlet,
then left on the beach to die—great
monster of the deep powerless in the
clutch of that maddened water. And
then we came to the glaciers—ran
along the base of one, circling around,
first one side, then the other, for the
engineers have had a difficult time
with land slides and washouts. In one
place we circled around and over until
it was difficult to tell just which track
we had been on or over which we
would again travel. There was a gla-
cier each way you looked; some im-
mense, others like a small, frozen
creek high in the mountains, and, yet
only a few miles along, would come a
lake or chain of lakes, reflecting like
mirrors the snow capped peaks on
their banks.
This is the hunter’s own territory as
I was told that there were 20,000
moose estimated to be found on the
peninsula. The forests are of much
finer timber and there were several
small farms but the country is too
mountainous to allow very large acre-
age. And then we reached Seward.
I know of no seaport town that
made the curious impression upon me
that Seward did. It is only a small
handful of people—500, I think—with
houses mostly of the bungalow type;
however, it is not the man-part that
arrested my attention, but the harbor.
Almost land-locked—a deep green bay,
so deep that boats cannot safely anchor
if a wind is blowing; with mountains
rising, almost sheerly, on all but the
one small town side. Not hills but
snow capped, rugged peaks that seem
to be frowning on everything at their
feet. As I stood looking seaward, I
asked Miss Reat how the boats got out
from this seeming-mountain circle and
she pointed toward an island, that ap-
parently blocked a break in the circle
remarking, “I think they go to the left
of that island,” and, for all I know,
they do. It is a weird place and one
could think of “Witches Caldron” or
“Devil’s Bay,” or some such name as
more appropriate. Of course, it was
a dark, misty, grey day although not
cold and, perhaps, had the sun been
shining it would have been much finer
and less terrifying. The first impres-
sions will always remain with me and
I will think of Anchorage, with its
broad space, open sea and mountains,
miles away, as much more beautiful
than the seaport town of Seward.
The days have been growing short
so fast that now, at 4:30, I must light
the electric light and, in a short time,
it will be much earlier. Days shorten
and lengthen in leaps and bounds in
this North latitude; one almost no-
tices the difference in twenty-four
hours. This time last year I was on
the trail in the North where one no-
ticed the difference more as the days
were so short to travel our allotted
miles.

Will Talk to the Scouts.
Major Van DeBoe, executive of the
Harrisburg Boy Scouts, and formerly
of Williamsport, will address a meet-
ing of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts
of Bellefonte, at St. John’s parish
house, at 8 o'clock Friday evening,
December 22nd. Parents and friends
of the Scouts, as well as boys and
girls interested in scouting, are in-
vited to be present. The speaker had
an enviable war record and has achiev-
ed distinct success as a Scout leader.
If Bellefonte is interested in the wel-
fare of its young people, it will do all
it can to develop the Scout movement,
Several new troops should be formed
by institutions in the community for
both boys and girls.
A Message to the Farmers of Centre
County.
Are you willing to back up the faith
of the biggest men in the farming life
of the State and nation with your
membership
Farm Bureau?
Are you willing to see practically
every other industry in our national
life operating on an organized basis,
and let the great industry of farming
goon and on in its old haphazard
way?
Are you willing to invest a little
money now in the definite knowledge
that it will not only return to you
many fold, but to your children and
your children’s children one hundred
fold?
Are you willing to keep on taking
and giving the other man’s price?
Are you willing to produce at your
best and market at your worst?
Are you willing to keep on getting
37 per cent. of the consumer’s dollar
who buys your produce, while Den-
mark, intensively organized, gives the
farmer 90 cents of the consumer’s dol-
lar?
Are you willing to keep on taking
about 33 per cent. of what the con-
sumer pays for the milk you produce ?
Are you willing to keep on forever
paying taxes without having yourself
represented in Congress and the Leg-
islature where the taxes are imposed ?
We don’t believe you are. And for
that reason we believe you are going
to get back of the Farm Bureau move-
ment in Centre county.
Let’s render a verdict that will be a
challenge to State and nation. Let’s
show the real spirit of a conservative
county when it is aroused to action.
This is not a radical movement. It
is not based on visions and dreams.
It has its root in good, hard common
sense. It knows no politics, no creed.
It is simply an economic organization
of farmers, by farmers, for farmers
to improve our agriculture, better our
system of marketing, solve our trans-
portation problems, keep a watchful
eye on the commodities we buy, in
short to put farming on the same
plane with other business, and once it
is there, keep it there.
If you are in favor of bettering your
economic conditions come to Belle-
fonte to the annual meeting on De-
cember 23rd and put the Centre coun-
ty Farm Bureau on a paid membership
basis.

Longing for “Home.”
Blackfalds, Can., Dec. 3. 1922.
Dear “Watchman:”
I have been reading Dr. Meek’s let-
ters with great
known she was going out by way of
Fairbanks she would not have passed
a lonely day there. I have an old
friend there—eighty-three years
young, and active as a two-year-old.
He has been a resident of Alaska for
in the Centre county
NEARHOOD.—Mrs. Elizabeth C.
Nearhood, wife of Edwin C. Near-
hood died ather home at Sheraden,
near Pittsburgh, on Sunday, following
a three week’s illness with pneumonia.
She was a daughter of John J. and
Sarah C. Ocker and was born at Re-
bersburg, this county, fifty-five years
ago. During the early part of their
married life Mr. and Mrs. Nearhood
lived in Bellefonte for eight years dur-
ing which time Mr. Nearhood was em-
ployed in Yeager’s shoe store and also
as shipping clerk in the Potter-Hoy
hardware store. Seventeen years ago
they moved to Sheraden and that has
been their home ever since. Mrs.
Nearhood was a member of the Meth-
odist church and of Cyrus Chapter No.
78, Order of the Eastern Star.
In addition to her husband she is
survived by one son, Harry Near-
hood, of Pittsburgh, two sisters and
one brother, namely: Mrs. A. E.
Haugh, of Pittsburgh; Mrs. J. W.
Ruhl, of Mifflinburg, and Forrest J.
Ocker, of Bellefonte. Mr. and Mrs.
Ocker went to Sheraden on Monday
afternoon to attend the funeral serv-
ices which were held at eight o'clock
on Tuseday evening.

AMMERMAN.—Harvey B. Ammer-
man died at his home in Philipsburg '
at 7:15 o’clock on Sunday morning as
the result of a stroke of paralysis sus-
tained at noon on Saturday. He was
a son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew P. Am-
merman and was born at Martha Fur-
nace on July 28th, 1855, hence was in
his sixty-eighth year. As a young
man he located in Philipsburg and
went to work for the Pennsylvania
railroad company, having been retir-
ed in July after forty-four years of
continuous service. He was one of
the original members of the Hope fire
company, of Philipsburg, and a mem-
ber of the Loyal Order of Moose. His
wife died in 1910 but surviving him
are five sons and one daughter. Bur-
ial was made in the Philipsburg cem-
etery on Wednesday afternoon.
Il i
STOVER.—James Stover, a lifelong
resident of Bellefonte, died at the
Bellefonte hospital on Wednesday
night following an illness of several
weeks with a complication of diseases.
He was a son of Dainel H. and Kate
Huey Stover and was born in Buffalo
Run valley on Christmas day, 1877,
hence was almost forty-five years old.
He is survived by his mother, living
at Coleville, and the following broth-
ers and sisters: Harry, of Altoona;
Lloyd, of Bellefonte; Guy, in Cleve-
land, Ohio; Beryl and Elvin, at home; |
Paul, of Tarentum; Miles, of Buffalo,
N. Y., and Mrs. H. B. Mattern in the
twenty-two years, and is the senior!
member of the Sampson Hardware
company. He would gladly have
shown Dr. Meek the sights of the
town, and incidentally his new car at |
the same time.
I suppose the deer hunters are out |
in full force in old Centre county at
this time, and I wish I were watch-
ing a runway in the dear old moun-
tains. I sometimes think I will close
out here and go back to old Nittany
valley, but it is not so easy to let go
here; especially now that times are so
dull.
It seems strange to me that any one
should not have his own home land,
but some time ago I met a man who
claimed to have been born in Belle-
fonte, yet he sure hated the town and
everything and everybody in it. He
had an old, dirty, greasy manuscript
which he called a history of two well
known families of the town, and he
declared he was going to publish it as
soon as he got a little money ahead.
I tried to get it away from him bul
could not get my hands on it.
We are having a fine winter here,
no snow and the ground only slightly
frozen. We had the poorest crops the
past summer we have had here in
twenty-five years. Some of the wheat
yielded only six and seven bushels to
the acre. Cattle and horses are al-
most worthless owing to the short-
age of feed. Eggs, butter and cream
are a good price, and hogs also.
Times are hard and it is almost im-
possible to collect a debt. It would
be a fine time for any one with a little
money to spare to invest it here, as
land prices are very reasonable and
stock of all kinds cheap.
I wonder what has become of all my
friends in Walker, Marion and Gregg
townships. If I were to go back now
I suppose I would find very few of
them left. Some have doubtless mov-
ed away but more crossed over the
Great Divide. Sometimes I think I
just must pack up at once and go back
and hunt up the living, and look upon
the graves of those who have gone.

Y. Team Loses at Basket Ball.
In the opening game of the basket
ball season, at the Y on Monday night,
the Y team was defeated by the Al-
pha Delta Sigma team, of State Col-
lege, by the close score of 20 to 19.
A large crowd witnessed the contest,
which was fast and snappy from be-
ginning to end. The Frat boys took
the lead in the early part of the game
but it was not long until the Y’s were
ahead. Then it was a see-saw until
near the close when the score was 19-
to 18, with the Y’s leading. Almost
in the last minute of play, however,
the visitors threw a field goal, thus
winning the game.

Demand for Penn State Graduates in |
Egypt.
So great a reputation have grad-
uates of The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege made in foreign mission fields
that an additional call has just been '
received for four Seniors to serve as
teachers at the American University
of Cairo, Egypt. Secretary Frank
Olmstead of the student Y. M. C. A.
is now busy looking up candidates for
the Egyptian work. Penn State has
sent a number of graduates to the
University of Cairo, notably J. F.
Leete, who was graduated in 1921 and |
who is head of the department of
chemistry at that university. Other
Penn State graduates are located in
the Egyptian Sudan, Syria, India, Chi-
na, Korea and Brazil.
Those who wish to celebrate the
coming Christmas day in a religious
fashion, and who have no other place
to worship, are hereby reminded of the
beautiful midnight Mass which it is |
the custom to offer to Almighty God |
at the very beginning of the fast day
in St. John’s Episcopal church. The
service this year will begin promptly
at 11:30 p. m., Christmas eve, instead
of at 11:45 as formerly, and will be
characterized by the most beautiful
music which the parish choir is able
to produce. This service affords op-
portunity of worshipping at the Man-
ger of Bethlehem before the distrac-
tions of the holiday intervene, and of
worshipping, too, in the only way that
has behind it the direct command of
Christ for His continual remembrance.
——Joseph Thomas, colored of Al-
legheny county, was electrocuted at
the Rockview penitentiary on Monday
morning for the murder of Anna Kir-
ker, an aged woman living in Butter-
milk hollow, near Pittsburgh. This
will be the last electrocution this year,
as no convicted men are put to death
during the holiday season.
Miss Wagner, of the High
school, announces that the class in
home economics will have during the
balance of this week and all of next
salted peanuts for sale, at the High
school building. The price will be
40c. a pound and orders will be de-
livered if desired.
' Deer Hunting Season Will Close
Today.
At sunset this (Friday) evening
the deer hunting season for 1922 will
come to an end, and the reverberation
of firearms which rang through the
mountainous sections of the county
during the past two weeks will be
stilled until another year rolls around,
and the deer can wend their way in
peace and without fear and trembling.
There is no question but that the
season has been the best in many
years, at least from the standpoint of
deer killed. While it never has been,
and probably never will be, possible
to get an accurate count of the bucks
slaughtered, yet there is every reason
to believe that the number will exceed
two hundred and fifty and may reach
three hundred. From reports receiv-
ed at this office in the neighborhood
of thirty hunting parties, mostly en-
camped in the Seven mountains, got
their limit of six deer, while very few
parties failed to get one or more.
But there are still some bucks left
in the woods and the probablity is that
they will be just as plentiful next
year. Of course every deer season has
its stories and this one would indicate
that during the hunting season a man
ought to carry his gun with him at all
times. Last Friday Clayton Bressler,
i who lives on a farm near Millheim,
was out in the field plowing when five
“deer, two bucks and three does, came
lout of the woods and just trotted
! along in a field next to him with only
| the fence between them, paying no
| attention to either him or his team.
| He could have shot a buck easily, but
'he didn’t have a gun. Just a day or
{two before that Rev. W. J. Shultz
| was motoring over from Lamar to Re-
| bersburg and three bucks jumped out
in the road ahead of him. Of course
the pastor had no gun with him,
| either.
In our hunting report of last week
we told of the Fleetfoot club, of Fer-
| guson township, having bagged their
| limit and coming out of the woods on
| Tuesday. On Wednesday eleven mem-
bers of the club, namely, William
Leach and Edgar Hess, of Shingle-
i town; Samuel Tussey, of Hollidays-
| burg; William Markle, of Houserville;
John M. Hess, of Bellefonte; N. E.
. Hess, B. F. Homan, Harry Hoy, C. G.
| Aikens and Riley Hunter of State
| College, and Homer Walker, of State
College R. F. D., motored to Potter
. county to hunt for bear. On Thurs-
| day they got one wihch weighed 350
| pounds. It was shot by Edgar Hess,
and on Saturday they passed through
Bellefonte on their way home.
TREED BY A BEAR.
Out at Pine Run Larry Redding and
Supt. J. K. Johnston, of the Tyrone
Division, have been holding forth for
the entire season and it isn’t any won-
| der, for they have a wonderful camp
and John Holt to cook for them and
what more could hunters desire.
Up to Wednesday they had brought
down two deer and had a lot of exciting
chases, but all the excitement was not
caused by deer. John Viehdorfer, one
of the party, ran onto a whale of a
bear and after he had exhausted all
of his ammunition at it without other
results than to put it on the defen-
sive bruin turned on him and he had
to take to a tree where he stayed for
an hour and a half before others of the
party came to his rescue. At their
approach the bear trctted off.
Besides the hosts there were in the
party Tom Conaghan, of Tyrone, Lar-
ry Nugent and Tom Chapman, of
Munson; M. D. Kelley, of Altoona;
Francis and Paul Kelley, of Coalport;
John Viehdorfer, Joe Way, Tom Kerin
and Ollie Morgan, of Snow Shoe;
John Holt, of Fleming, and Henry
Thompson.
A party from Downingtown and
Williamsport, who are at the Spruce
Run camp have three deer.
The David Chambers party on Ster-
ling run had gotten three up to Wed-
' nesday.

Some Hunters.
A party of seventeen hunters from
the vicinity of Mt. Eagle left their
camp on Panther run, on Saturday,
and returned home disgusted. They
hadn’t a deer. They saw some but
didn’t get them. Just why we have
been unable to find out, but if a story
that reached this office the other day
is true their failure is explained.
After they had made their last
fruitless drive and were on the way
back to camp a group of seven of the
hunters met and forthwith a gen-
eral post-mortem and presentation of
alibis began. While each was telling
the other what he should have done
and all were railing at their luck one
of the party happend to look up and
there; almost leaping onto them was a
three pronged buck. It was coming
so fast and scented them when so close
that in the sudden stop it had to make
to keep from running right over them
its front legs sank into the marshy
ground knee deep. Not fifteen feet
from the seven luckless hunters was
the three pronged buck almost mired.
Every one of them had a gun, all but
two had a shot and all they got was a
glimpse of the big white flag of that
three pronged buck as he hurtled the
brush toward somebody that really
wanted a mess of venison.
Do you wonder that the Mt. Eaglers
came home disgusted.
——Included in the list of officers
recently elected by the Pomona
Grange of the students at State Col-
lege are F. L. Stump, of State College,
lecturer, and Sarah Irene Rishel, of
Centre Hall, secretary.
The mission of the Christmas seal
is to cure and prevent tuberculosis—
to protect against tuberculosis. It
teaches those who have the disease
how to take care of themselves and
not communicate the disease to others,
and teaches well people how to keep
well.
The fight against tuberculosis
meant the saving of 5,256 lives (chil-
dren, women and men) in Pennsylva-
nia last year. Many thousands more
were prevented from taking the dis-
ease.
You can help to continue this saving
of life and continue the reduction of
the death rate from tuberculosis by
furthering the mission of the little
Christmas seal. This little messenger
carries good cheer, better health and
longer life to many.
All of the Christmas seals placed
on sale in the United States on De-
cember first were produced in Penn-
sylvania, having been manufactured
by a concern in Scranton for the tu-
berculosis organizations. The seals
distributed in the country number one
billion, of which sixty-five million are
for Pennsylvania.
Except for the annual making of the
paper, the entire work of producing
the Christmas seals was done in
Scranton. In one plant the paper was
gummed, printed in three colors, cut
into sheets of 100 seals each, perfor-
ated, packed and sent to each State
in the country.
A Christmas seal is about one inch
square. The one billion, placed end
to end, would reach for a distance of
almost 16,000 miles.
The sale of seals was started in 1907
when about 300,000 altogether were
sold.

C. LaRue Munson Died
China.
in Peking,
C. LaRue Munson, a prominent at-
torney of Williamsport and widely
known throughout the State, died in
Peking, China, last Friday. He was
on a trip around the world with a par-
ty of tourists and contracted bron-
chial pneumonia shortly after reach-
ing Peking. He was promptly taken
to the Rockefeller hospital at Peking
but died in a few days. Mrs. Munson
was with him. The body will be
brought home on the next steamer
leaving China for the United States.
Mr. Munson, who was 68 years old,
was a member of the law firm of Can-
dor & Munson. He was chairman of
the Lycoming county branch of the
committee of national defense during
the world war. He was a regular lec-
turer on legal practice at the Yale law
school and was the author of books on
the practice of law. In 1902-03 he was
president of the Pennsylvania State
Bar Association.
In 1909, as the Democratic nominee
for justice of the State Supreme court,
he made a strong run against Robert
von Moschzisker. He withdrew his
name as candidate for the Democratic
nomination for Governor in 1910.
Mr. Munson, who was a cousin of
Mrs. H. C. Quigley and Mrs. John
Blanchard, of Bellefonte, frequently
visited here and was well known by
many Centre countians.

The Left Hind Foot of a Rabbit
Caught in the Dark of the Moon
Is claimed to have much influence
for good. If caught in a graveyard
its power against evil is unlimited.
If it had the power to restore over-
taxed eyes, which cause so many head-
aches, we would have them on sale,
but knowing it has no such power we
advise properly-fitted spectacles.
I will advise you honestly. Consult
me today. Prices moderate.
