Railroaders in Whom You Might be
Interested.
The following items are from the
last issue of The Pennsylvania News,
the interesting railroad paper pub-
lished by rail-roaders at Tyrone:
James F. McCullum, formerly car
distributor at Osceola Mills, has been
promoted to a similar position at Phil-
adelphia.
Roy Strunk, formerly of Bellefonte,
now a freight brakeman on the Ty-
rone division, has recovered from a
very serious attack of typhoid pneu-
monia. :
F. W. Ingram has given up his po-
sition as a foreman on the Tyrone di-
vision and moved onto his own farm
near Unionville.
George W. Bullock has been trans-
ferred from Julian to Unionville
where he has succeeded W. B. Parsons,
retired, as station agent.
W. B. Parsons, for over thirty years
agent at Unionville, was placed on the
“Roll of Honor” on April 1st, with a
total record of forty years and seven
months of service. He was born at
Julian, Pa., January 20th, 1858, resid-
ing in that vicinity practically his en-
tire life. He worked in various capac-
ities on the Tyrone division prior to
January 18th, 1892, when he was made
the agent at Unionville, which posi-
tion he filled faithfully and well until
retirement. Mr. and Mrs. Parsons
will continue to make their home in
Unionville.
John Hilliard, pumpman at Pennsyl-
vania Furnace, Tyrone division, has
charge of a pump house reputed to be
one of the cleanest and most orderly
on the system. Mr. Hilliard takes a
“housewifely” interest in his pump
house, and it is as spic and span as
any nome on the division.
Five Million Miles Through the Air.
Five million miles through the air;
this is the sum total of the activities
of the air mail service of the Post-
office Department, since its inaugura-
tion May 15th, 1918, to December 31st,
1922. At the present time the air mail
service is flying on a schedule esti-
mated to require nearly 2,000,000
miles a year, as it is estimated that
the postal planes are rapidly winging
their way to the 6,000,000 mile mark.
The air mail service since its instal-
lation has cost, the report shows,
$4,295,967.69. Much of this expense
has been for permanent improvements
such as, repair shops, development of
landing fields, and the creation of a
reserve ship supply. In their flights
running into millions of miles the mail
pilots have carried 160,473,600 letters.
That this number will increase rapidly
is indicated by the fact that for last
year alone planes carried more than
60,000,000 of that total.
The air mail service has even com-
piled statistics which definitely estab-
lish the fact that a mail pilot's life is
not all sunshine. More than one-third
of the trips undertaken, 8,373, were
made in rain snow, hail or fog; 14,-
704 trips in five years’ operation were
made in clear weather. Although the
pilots were compelled to make 3,088
forced landings, the yearly total was
cut from 1,473 in 1921 to 573 in 1922.
For this record increased skill on the
part of pilots and a rigid inspection
system for planes, is entitled to credit.
High School Baseball League.
The Centre county High school base-
ball league opened the season last
Friday with several well contested
games. The league as organized in-
cluded in the western division Hub-
lersburg, Milesburg, Howard and
Blanchard. In the eastern division
Millheim, Spring Mills, Centre Hall
and State College. Spring Mills,
however, dropped out because no suit-
able ground could be secured for a
home field. In the opening games
Hublersburg defeated Milesburg by
the score of 9 to 7; Howard won from
Blanchard 6 to 4, and Millheim defeat-
ed State College 3 to 2.
John B. Payne, of Bellefonte, who
organized the league, has announced
that a pennant will be awarded the
winning teams in each division, while
George Graham, of State College, is
offering a beautiful silver trophy to
the team winning the county cham-
pionship.
——The Associated Business Men
of Bellefonte have named Thursday,
August 16th, as the date for their
third annual picnic at Hecla Park.
RUMBERGER.—Mrs, Margaret A.
Rumberger, wife of George W. Rum-
berger, died at her home at Unionville
at 4:30 oclock on Monday morning.
She had been seriously ill for several
weeks with a complication of diseases
due to her advanced age, so that her
passing away was not unexpected.
"A daughter of John and Anna Bev-
ett Armagast she was born at Fill-
more on July 15th, 1840, hence had
reached the advanced age of 82 years,
9 months and 8 days. Her marriage
to Mr. Rumberger took place on De-
cember 29th, 1859, in the parsonage
of the old Methodist church of Belle-
fonte, the Rev. A. B. Snyder being the
officiating minister. For more than
sixty-three years this well known
couple have trod the pathway of life,
side by side, most of the years being
spent at Unionville. They have had
their years of sunshine, with perhaps
their days of shadow and sorrow, but
the sorrows were mellowed through
the many years of wedded life, both
being spared to see their children be-
come leading men and women in the
communities in which they reside.
Mrs. Rumberger was a life-long mem-
ber of the Methodist church, living a
life consistent with her christian
faith.
In addition to her husband she is
survived by the following children:
Mrs. John E. Brugger, of Unionville;
John C., George F. and William H., of
DuBois; Mrs. E. M. Griest, of Philips-
burg; Harry D., of Scranton; Allen
G., of Tyrone; Mrs. A. F. Holderman,
of Huntingdon, and Miss Anna Laura,
at ‘home. She also leaves two broth-
ers, Henry and John T. Armagast,
both living near Hunter's park, as well
as twenty grand-children and eleven
great grand-children.
Funeral services were held at her
late home at two o’clock on Wednes-
day afternoon by the Methodist pas-
tor, Rev. F. W. Andreas, after which
burial wag made in the Unionville
cemetery. :

HARTSWICK. — Miss Henrietta
Hartswick, the last surviving member
of a family long identified with the
history of Stormstown, in Halfmoon
valley, died last Thursday night at
the home of her nieces, the Misses
Kate and Minnie Walker, in Williams-
port. Though she had been confined
to bed only two weeks her failing
health dates back to eighteen months
ago when she was injured in a fall.
She was born at Sormstown and
was almost ninety-six years old. For
many years she and her sister Hannah
kept a milinery shop at that place but
after the death of her sister, or in
1904, she went to Williamsport and
spent the winters with another sister,
Mrs. James Mansel, but every summer
she went back to Stormstown to spend
a few months in the old home, her
last trip, during 1921, being made by
automobile. Since the death of her
sister, Mrs. Mansel, she had made her
home with her two nieces mentioned
above. In addition to the Misses
Walker her immediate survivors in-
clude three nephews, Dr. C. C. Walk-
ler, of Williamsport; Dr. B. H. Mansel,
{of Detroit, Mich.,, and Harry Mansel,
of Waycross, Ga.
Miss Hartswick was a life-long
member of the Methodist church and
Rev. W. W. Banks had charge of the
funeral services which were held at
her late home on Sunday afternoon
and on Monday morning the remains
were taken to Stormstown for burial
in the family plot in the Stormstown
cemetery.

STRUBLE.—Calvin H. Struble, for
many years a well known farmer of
Ferguson township, died on Sunday
night at the home of his brother, A.
B. Struble, on west Beaver avenue,
State College, following an illness of
some months with a complication of
diseases.
He was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Con-
rad H. Struble and was born on the
old homestead near the present Stru-
ble station on June 3rd, 1849, making
his age 73 years, 10 months and 19
days. With the exception of two years
in Kansas his entire life was spent in
Centre county. He followed farming
up until about seven years ago when
he retired and moved to State College.
His health failing last summer he and
his wife went to the A. B. Struble
home for the winter and it was there
he passed away. He was a member of
the German Reformed church of Pine
Hall for many years and a good, clean,
honorable christian man.
About thirty-three years ago he
married Miss Maria Reisch who sur-
vives with two brothers, A. B. and
‘| John C. Struble, both of State College,
as well as one half-sister, Miss Mary
B. Struble, of Erie. Funeral services
were held in the Pine Hall Reformed
church at 2:30 o’clock on Wednesday
afterncon by Rev. S. C. Stover, assist-
ed by Rev. J. F. Harkins, of the Luth-
eran church, after which burial was
made in the Pine Hall cemetery.
il Il
DOWNES.—Michael J. Downes, a
well known broker of Altoona, and a
brother of Rev. Father William E.
Downes, rector of St. John’s Catholic
church of Bellefonte, died at the Mer-
cy hospital, Altoona, on Sunday after-
noon following a brief illness. He was
born in Lock Haven a little over fifty-
six years ago and had been a resident
of Altoona for twenty-five years. He
was a member of the Sacred Heart
Catholic church, of Altoona. Surviv-
ing him are his wife and two children,
as well as his mother, living in Ty-
rone, and the following brothers and
sisters:
Pittsburgh; Mrs. C. A. Butts, of Phil-
adelphia; Rev. Father William E,
Downes and Miss Catherine, of Belle-
fonte; John, Patrick and Elizabeth, of
Tyrone. Burial was made at Tyrone
on Wednesday morning.
Daniel and James Downes, of |
Harper died at the West Penn hos-
Wednesday morning following an ill-
breakdown about Christmas time. She
had partially recovered therefrom but
about the first of. April her condition
became such that her physician
thought it best to take her to the hos-
pital for special treatment. A stroke
of apoplexy on Tuesday night was the
immediate cause of her death.
Miss Harper was the secord daugh-
ter of Jonathan and Minnie Schreyer
Harper and was born in the Garman
house, Bellefonte, where her parents
at that time made their home. Liv-
ing most all her life in Bellefonte she
was educated in the public schools
here, finishing at Maplewood Institute
in Chester county, where she special-
ized in music for which she had an un-
usual talent, through both her voice
and piano work gaining more than or-
dinary recognition. Later most of her
time was devoted to the pipe organ,
this being continued until she left
Bellefonte thirteen years ago to make
her home in Scranton with her sister,
Mrs. Saxe. Later she went with the
family to Minersville, then to Xlis-
worth, Washington county, their pres-
ent home.
Miss Harper is survived by two sis-
ters and two brothers, Miss Maude,
Mrs. Archibald Saxe, the latter of
Ellsworth; Jerome G., of Bellefonte,
and Edward, of Cleveland, Ohio. The
body will be brought to Bellefonte on
the 1:27 p. m. train today and taken
to the home of her brother, on Bishop
street, where funeral services will be
held at three o'clock by Rev. Dr. A.
M. Schmidt, after which burial will be
made in the Harper lot in the Union
cemetery.

UNDERWOOD. — James Harrison
Underwood, only son of J. Irwin and
Mary Kinkead Underwood, died at the
family home at Erie on Saturday
morning. He was born at Renovo,
had on various occasions visited in
Bellefonte at the home of his grand-
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Under-
wood, on Spring street. Although not
physically strong he was possessed of
a cheerful and loving disposition
which attracted all who knew hin.
In addition to his parents he is sur-
vived by three sisters, Martha, Edith
and Jean Underwood. The remains
were brought to Bellefonte on Monday
afternoon and taken direct to the Un-
ion cemetery for burial, Rev. David R.
Evans, of the Presbyterian church, of-
ficiating.

mer home; Oscar, Stewart and Edwin
Kinkead, of Ebensburg; L. B. Scott, of
Reading, and Miss Mina Lewis, of
Pittsburgh.

brothers and a sister. Burial was
made in Oak Ridge, Altoona, on Mon-
day afternoon.

A Student’s Ideas on the Betterment
of Bellefonte,
Recently the students in the Fresh-
man class of the Bellefonte High
schoo were requested to submit
written civic themes on the betterment
of Bellefonte and the following was
adjudged the best of those submitted:
Although Bellefonte is a beautiful
town there are some improvements
which might be made. To safeguard
community health the alleys should
be cleaned and people should not be
allowed to throw their garbage arcund
the houses when at the cost of a few
cents it could be taken away. Some
houses on these alleys could be put in
a much better and safer condition. A
new and more extensive drainage sys-
tem would add greatly to the health
of the town. Without impairing the
town’s beauty we might keep the
streets in better repair and in some
places trees would be greatly appre-
ciated. The old steam heat and gas
works, which are in a rather dilapidat-
ed condition, are an eye-sore to many
people. One crying need is a public
park, which could be erected on the
land surrounding the spring. A pub-
lic library would be a fine thing for
Bellefonte. The Allegheny street
school building should be devoted en-
tirely to the grades and a new and
larger building for the High school
built. The play ground needs more
room and more equipment. Strangers
have to ask a citizen the way to their
destination in Bellefonte because of
a lack of street signs. Why not rem-
edy this? The street crossings are
dangerous in some places and those
crossings, a well as others, should be
better lighted. The Lamb street rail-
road crossing is dangerous, because
the mill shuts out the view of the rail-
road from the street and people must
be very careful or there would be
many accidents. Many of our streets
appear more narrow than they are on
account of the parking along the
curbs. This not only interferes with
traffic but also detracts from the beau-
ty of the street. Because of the lack
of fire escapes in many of the public
buildings, a serious disaster could oc-
cur in event of a fire.

: BUSH.
Bellefonte Trust Company Executor
and Trustee.
i
| I, Louise T. Bush, of the borough of
| Bellefonte, in the county of Centre
and State of Pennsylvania, being of
sound mind, memory and understand-
‘ing, do make and publish this my last
will and testament, hereby revoking
and making void all former wills by
me at any time heretofore made.-
I direct that my just debts and
funeral expenses be paid as soon as
may be by my executor hereinafter
named.
I give and bequeath two hundred
($200.00), dollars, to the Bellefonte
Cemetery Association, for the perpet-
ual ‘care of the cemetery lot belonging
to me in the Union cemetery of Belle-
fonte, and of the graves contained
and to be contained therein, and I di-
rect that this legacy be free of any
collateral or other estate tax, any tax
thereon to be paid out of my estate.
I direct that all indebtedness owing
to me by my son, George T. Bush, at
'the time of my death, shall remain as
an indebtedness by him to my estate,
and the payment of the principal
thereof shall not be enforced until
after his death.
I further direct that my daughter,
Elizabeth H. B. Callaway, and my son,
George T. Bush, shall be permitted to
occupy their respective apartments in
the “Bush Arcade” during their nat-
ural lives, or so long as they may de-
sire, without any charge therefor.
All the rest, residue and remainder
of my estate, and property, real, per-
sonal and mixed, and wheresoever sit-
uate or being, of which I shall die
seized or possessed, including all in-
debtedness due from and payable by
my son, George T. Bush, I give, devise
and bequeath unto the Bellefonte
Trust Company, of Bellefonte, Pa.,
upon the following trusts, viz:
I direct that after the payment of
all annual taxes, interest on mortgage
and all other necessary and legal ex-
penses, that the net income derived
from my property shall be paid semi-
annually to my daughter, Elizabeth H.
B. Callaway, and to my two sons,
George T. Bush and Harry P. Bush,
share and share alike during their life-
time, and to their survivors or survi-
vor of them during the lifetime of
such survivors or survivor;
I direct that my estate shall remain
in trust until the deaths of my daugh-
ter, Elizabeth H. B. Callaway, and my
two sons, George T. Bush and Harry
P. Bush;
I direct, however, that should the
above mentioned Trustee and subject
to the approval of my son George T.
Bush, and my grand-daughter, Magda-
lene C. Thompson, or either of them,
deem it to the best interest of my es-
tate to sell any of my real estate, I
hereby authorize my said Trustee to
make sale thereof and empower said
Trustee to give a good and sufficient
deed or deeds for the conveyance
thereof;
The foregoing Trusteeship of my es-
tate shall cease at the deaths of my
daughter, Elizabeth H. B. Callaway,
and my two sons, George T. Bush and
Harry P. Bush. I then direct that my
estate shall be settled and the balance
shall be divided equally between my
grand-children, Louise B. Garber, in-
ter-married with Harry L. Garber, and
Magdalene C. Thompson, intermarried
with George B. Thompson; in casc
however, of the death of the said Lou-
ise B. Garber, before the final settle-
ment of my estate, I direct that the
whole of my estate shall go to and vest
in the said Magdalene C. Thompson,
her heirs and assigns forever.
I hereby provide, nevertheless, that
if any of the beneficiaries named in
this will controvert, dispute or eall in
question the validity of this will, or
of the estate hereby granted, then in
such case, the estates, bequests and
devises herein made to such person or
persons so controverting or disputing
my said will, shall cease, determine
and become absolutely void, and
thenceforth all such estates, bequests
and devises shall go to and belong to
and be vested in the residuary benefi-
ciaries in equal shares, if more than
one, or in the surviving residuary
beneficiary, if only one.
I nominate, constitute and appoint
the Bellefonte Trust Company, Belle-
fonte, Pennsylvania, executor of this
my last will and testament.
In Witness Whereof, I, Louise T.
Bush, the testatrix, have to this my
last will and testament, set my hand
and seal his 17th day of September,
A. D. one thousand nine hundred and
twenty-one.
(Signed) LOUISE T. BUSH (SEAL).
Signed, sealed, published and de-
clared by the above named Louise T.
Bush, as for her last will and testa-
ment, in the presence of us, who have
hereunto subscribed our names at her
request as witnesses thereto, in the
presence of the said testatrix and of
each other.

(Signed) W. R. BRACF BILL.
The Trusts under the will are to
continue during the lives of the three
beneficiaries and to the survivors or
survivor. The remaining estate is to
go to her grand-children, Mrs. Garber
and Mrs. Thompson and her heirs. In
the event of the death of Mrs. Garber
before the final setlement of the es-
tate, then the whole of the estate is to
go to Mrs. Thompson and her children.
These Trusts may run at least from
twenty-five to thirty-five years. Un-
der the will the net income is distrib-
uted equally from time to time to
Mrs. Callaway, George and Harry
Bush. The money arising from the
sales of real estate must be invested

——
HARPER.—Miss Louise Garman WILL OF THE LATE LOUISE T. | principal, for the benefit of the grand-
children to be paid to them after the
death of the three beneficiaries. The
real estate fund will be treated as
trust funds and under the law, sub-
ject to the examination of the State
Banking Department.
The Bellefonte Trust Company must
invest separately in the name of Bush
estate and such trust funds are not
subject to the general creditors of the
Trust Company.
Mrs. Bush showed good business
judgment in the selection of the Trust
Company for her trustee and execu-
tor. Individual trustees, in a period
of thirty years, may die. Trust Com-
panies, being incorporations, never die.
This secures unity of management—
one trustee during the life of the
trusts. Other estates with trusts run-
ning thirty years or more will be sub-
ject to several sets of trustees and
every change will be a different man-
agement.
Should a Trust Company dissolve or
fail, the trust funds are untouched and
are secure in the beneficiaries. 67-17-1t
The Main Show Will be a Good One.
The Walter L. Main show, on its
44th annual tour, will exhibit here on
May 7th. Any circus bearing the
Main name is a drawing card in this
section for the story of the wreck of
the original Main circus near Gard-
ner station on the Clearfield division,
some thirty years ago, has been hand-
ed down from father to son until
everybody in Central Pennsylvania
feels that he or she has a personal in-
terest in this particular tented enter-
prise.
If our memory serves us right Wal-
ter L. Main died some years ago, but
his name like those of Barnum and
Bailey is still “Shibboleth” in the cir-
cus business and for that reason it is
capitalized by others who are carry-
ing on since he has departed to quibble
with Noah as to whether he really did
have a regular menagerie in the Ark.
All of the circuses in America, as
we told you some weeks ago, are un-
der the control of two syndicates:
One the Ringlings, the other the Mul-
ligan-Bowers interests. The Main en-
terprise is affiliated with the former
and that means that it must be clean
and good as a small circus can be.
That it is that we need but call your
attention to the following from the
Huntingdon, W. Va., Herald-Dispatch
of the 14th inst.
The show played Huntingdon on the
13th and the Dispatch confirms our
prediction that it will be worth seeing
here on May 7th.
The Walter L. Main circus which
exhibited here yesterday ran into rain
and a lot knee deep in mud. The cir-
cus put out a very creditable street
parade at noon dodging the showers
and gave a belated afternoon per-
formance to a fair crowd. The circus
people thoughtfully built a board-walk
from the entrance clear to the en-
trance to the reserved seats and al-
though the elephants floundered round
in the mud and the famous Wirth rid-
ing act was given in the ring that
was a veritable muck hole their per-
formance was not curtailed and it was
pronounced by many the greatest act
of its kind ever seen here. May Wirth
turned somersaults and Phil pulled off
his funny stunts to the delight of the
crowd. The trapeze performance by
the Codonas was another outstanding
i feature and was a sure enough thril-
ler. Downies’ elephants were also
very much in evidence and one of them
did a shimmie that would have sham-
ed the famous Gilda Gray. George
and Georgie presented a novelty on
the trampoline the latter turning fifty
somersaults in succession. After leav-
ing the ring Georgie slipped in the
mud on the way to the dressing room
and fractured his arm on a stake. The
circus lived up to its billing and gave
real satisfaction. It was clean and
not even an Oriental dance in the side
show; the first circus seen here in
years that did not have this attraction
for men only. The night performance
drew a good crowd despite the bad
weather and the show train left for
Parkersburg soon after midnight.
nm —— Ain —————
Last Saturday afternoon while
John Smay, of Huston township, with
his two children, Erma and Howard,
was on his way to Julian with a team
of colts hitched in a buckboard wag-
on, the animals frightened and ran
away. The little girl jumped and in
her fall sustained concussion of the
brain, cuts and bruises. Mr. Smay
grabbed his little son and also jumped
from the wagon but was thrown vio-
lently to the ground, the child sustain-
ing a fractured jaw, chest injuries and
cuts and bruises, while the father got
an ugly gash on the head. They were
brought to the Bellefonte hospital, but
Mr. Smay was able to go home after
his injuries were attended to. The
children are getting along fairly well.
Mrs. David Keller, of Philadel-
phia, was severely burned in a pecu-
lial manner one day last week. The
unfortunate woman is a daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Harper Rice, of Belle-
fonte, and came here the week pre-
vious to the burning of the Gamill
Rice house, in which her parents lived,
and in which most of her clothing were
ruined. Last week she was boiling
clothing in a gasoline preparation
when the clothing caught fire and in
an effort to save them she was badly
burned about the arms and face.
The “Eve” show, that appeared
at Garman’s Tuesday night, drew the
most money that has ever been taken
in at the box in Bellefonte. The house
grossed over a thousand dollars. The
house was packed and seats ran as
high at $2.27 which accounts for the
record breaking total. We have had
only about half a dozen shows during
the winter .and the audience gave
more real than pictures.

Signalling to Mars by Wireless May
Yet be Accomplished.
If Mars is peopled there is no doubt
that this wonderful feat may yet
be accomplished. Scientists claimed
certain conditions existed on Mars
until the Great Lick Telescope was
completed (1898), which proved oth-
erwise. Optometrists, by the com-
pounding of lenses, are working won-
ders as great. Thousands of people
have no idea how far they should see
or what a pair of properly fitted
glasses will do.
Consult me when in doubt.
Dr. Eva B. Roan, Optometrist. Li-
censed by the State Board.
