NEWS ABOUT TOWN AND COUNTY.
More than half of the school
children’s summer vacation is over
and the school bells will be ringing
before they realize it.
The condition of Mr. Jared
Harper, who was taken to the Belle-
fonte hospital on Tuesday for an op-
eration, was reported as fairly com-
fortable yesterday.
—— Henry Noll’s aeroplane is prov-
ing quite a diversion for residents of
Pleasant Gap and vicinity, and every
evening can be seen sailing through
the air over the town.
——Leonard Hollabaugh, of Phil-
ipsburg, was brought to the Centre
county jail on Tuesday to answer to
the charge of desertion and non-sup-
port preferred by his wife.
; George Harpster is suffering
from a partially crushed foot, the re-
sult of dropping a large piece of iron
on it while at work Wednesday, at the
American Lime and Stone plant.
——The Albright Brotherhood of
the Evangelical church will hold a
festival and cake walk on the match
factory lawn, on Phoenix avenue, Fri-
day evening, July 27th. The public is
invited. Music by the Odd Fellows
band.
——Tryop B, of the 52nd Machine
gun squadron, will arrive home to-
morrow morning from its two week’s
camp at Mt. Gretna. While in camp
Herbert S. Miller was appointed cap-
tain of the troop and Harry E. Sager
first lieutenant.
——Joseph Katz, who several weeks
ago sustained a broker leg while play-
ing baseball, has so far recovered that
he left the hospital last week and is
able to entertain his young friends at
the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
W. S. Katz, on High street.
The next meeting of the Sus-
quehanna trap sheoters’ league will
be held at Northumberland on Wed-
nesday, July 25th. The State College
team, which won the championship in
1915 and 1916, is Centre county’s only
representative in the league.
The Odd Fellows band is in
great demand this summer for picnics
and festivals and every week has two
or more engagements to fill. Belle-
fonte people, however, miss their
weekly concerts which were so grati-
fying the past two or three years.
Centre county bank building became
quite active on Tuesday afternoon
and sent out its clamorous tones for
almost an hour. It is the only real ac-
tivity that has been manifest to the
public since that institution closed its
doors over fourteen months ago.
Next Wednesday afternoon the
Red Cross Well-Baby clinic will be for
children of the African M. E. church.
All the church denominations have
had an afternoon and, while the quo-
ta was far below what it should have
been, quite a number of new patients
were thus added to the regular list of
clinic patients.
The Spencer shows which held
forth on the old fair grounds all of
last week were not as well patronized
as the carnival held here a few weeks
ago under the auspices of the American
Legion, but it probably had the effect
of keeping out of the town the much
larger carnival company originally
scheduled to show here this week. The
Spencer shows left on Sunday for Re-
novo. > :
The members of the Woman’s
Auxiliary of the clerks and letter car-
rier’s union, of Bellefonte, entertain-
ed all the employees of the Bellefonte
postoffice at a chicken and waffle din-
ner at the G. E. Haupt place, last
Thursday evening. The honor guest
was postmaster John L. Knisely. The
dinner was a success in every particu-
lar and every one present had a most
enjoyable time. : 4
——Prof. J. Orvis Keller, head of
the department of industrial engineer-
ing at The Pennsylvania: State Col-
lege, is preparing to give a short
course in industrial organization and
administration at that institution
from August 27th to September 8th.
It is designed especially for executive
heads of industrial enterprises and
will be part of the usual summer
course training. " :
Bricklayers are now at work on
the walls for the new Heverly build-
ing on the northwest corner of the
Diamond, while a force of men are
still digging out the foundation for
the Dr. Parrish building. The work
on the entire block, however, is not
progressing very fast and unless
greater speed is made within the next
few months the snow flakes will fall
before the buildings are enclosed.
——The Hazel-Schaeffer reunion
The old burglar alarm on the !
will this year be held at Grange park, !
Centre Hall, on Thursday, August
23rd. The reunion was originally
scheduled to be held at Madisonburg
in June but on the date set it was im-
possible to get into the grove where
the gatherings have always been held,
consequently it had to be postponed,
and the committee of arrangements
has now decided to hold it at Grange.
park.
Wetzler’s band of Milesburg
is planning to hold a big festival
on Saturday, August 25th, at which
time they will give away a Ford tour-
ing car. The band is in need of addi-
tional equipment and has taken this
means of securing money with which
to get it.. A big ball game will be held
at Milesburg the same afternoon un-
der the auspices of the band, and in
the evening there will be a festival
and cake walk.
ANOTHER BIG REAL ESTATE
DEAL. :
Decker Bros. Buy Garman Property,
Corner High and Spring Streets.
The Decker Bros., agents for the
Chevrolet automobile, closed a deal on
Monday for the purchase of the Gar-
man property on High and Spring
streets, the sale price being $22,500.
They will be given possession on Au-
gust first and as soon thereafter as’
possible will start work on the erec-
tion of a two story fireproof garage,
on the vacant lot extending from
Spring street back to the rear of the
McClain block.
While only tentative plans for the
garage have been made it is impossi-
ble to give details of the building, but
it will be constructed of concrete and
brick and made as absolutely fireproof
as possible. The main entrance to the
garage will, of course, be on Spring
street, but a rear entrance will also
be provided in the rear of the Holz
property.
Inasmuch as the present tenants in
the Garman building hold yearly leas-
es the purchasers will not interfere
with their possession until next
spring. At that time the building will
be remodeled, the lower floor to be
converted into a show room and office
space while the second and third floors
will probably be continued as apart-
ments. A big elevator will be install-
ed in the garage proper and the sec-
ond story used for the storage of new
cars.
The Decker Bros. only a year ago
purchased their present garage on
south Water street but their business
has outgrown the capacity of that
building and they were compelled to
lock for another location. For a time
they had the Valentine property on
the northeast corner of High and
Spring streets in view but finally de-
cided on the Garman property as the
more advantageous and better suited
to their purposes.
They have sold many cars since lo-
cating in Bellefonte and on Monday
and Tuesday unloaded four carloads of
Chevrolet coupes and sedans which
‘will enable them to make delivery of
some of their orders which now total
between thirty and forty cars.
Potato Growers to Make Auto Tour
of Inspection.
Potato growers of Centre county
are planning to “strike” on Thursday,
July 26th, and join with the farmers
of ten other counties in an auto tour
and potato field day. The trip will in-
clude stops at representative fields of
spuds in Blair, Centre and Hunting-
don counties, a basket lunch in a sha-
dy nook, and will wind up with an in-
spection of the potato fields at The
Pennsylvania State College.
The delegation will gather at the
John B. Campbell farm, two miles
east of Tyrone, at nine o’clock. There
a potato and alfalfa rotation will be
viewed. Pleasant View farm is the
next. stop where the results of using |
acid phosphate fertilizer will be seen.
The famous “hog and potato” two
year rotation will claim the attention
of the group at the Milo Campbell
farm, near Baileyville. Mr. Campbell
uses the rotation scheme of ten acres
of “spuds,” followed by ten acres of
“porkers.”
LUNCH IN SHADY GROVE.
By noon the string of autos are ex-
pected to arrive at the farm of A. C.
Kepler, near Pine Grove Mills. Thir-
ty acres of potatoes, the largest acre-
age in Central Pennsylvania, will be
the attraction. Basket lunch, with
plenty of shade and spring water, will
halt the tourists for a short time in
the Kepler grove.
The tour will wind up at the Col-
lege farms where seed source tests,
variety tests and other experimental
work of interest to every potato grow-
er will be inspected and explained by
‘E. L. Nixon, the “potato wizard” of
Pennsylvania. Reports indicate that
large delegations will come from Mif-
flin, Union and Bedford counties, and
auto loads are expected from Fayette,
Jefferson and Clinton.
Every member of the Centre coun-
ty potato club is planning for this op-
portunity to learn something about
potato growing and to get better ac-
quainted with the boys.
Two Injured in Auto Wreck.
.‘On- Sunday afternoon Mr. and Mrs.
Sheldon Haines and two little children,
and Lee Burkland, of Ridgway, were
victims of an auto wreck near Pine
Grove Mills when their Ford coupe
skidded on the wet highway and col-
lided with another car. Mrs. Haines
had both collar bones broken and Mr.
Burkland was injured internally, while
Mr. Haines and two children escaped
injury.
Mr. Haines and Mr. Burkland are
agents for the Fuller Brush company
and had been in Altoona attending a
meeting of the district agents held
there the latter part of the week.
Leaving Altoona on Sunday it was
their intention to motor to Wilkes-
Barre and were on their way when
they met with the disastrous accident.
Their car was completely wrecked but
all were brought to Bellefonte and the
injured taken to the Bellefonte hospi-
tal. Mrs. Haines was able to leave
that institution on Tuesday and oc-
company Mr. Haines and their two
children to her home in Nanticoke.
Mr. Burkland’s injuries, however, are
of such a character that he is still un-
der treatment at the hospital, though
his condition is not regarded as crit-
ical.
The Haines family formerly lived in
Bellefonte, Mr. Haines being the man-
ager of the Western” Union tele-
graph office prior to accepting an
agency for the Fuller Brush company.

——One hundred and sixty school
teachers taking the summer course at
State College took a trip to Philips-
burg and Morrisdale, last Saturday, in
motor busses and cars. At the latter
place they went down the slope of the
Cunard coal mine and took first hand
lessons in mining. The party was
composed of young men and women,
and the latter showed no hesitation
in going down the mine slope.
——The next big gathering will be
the annual picnic of the Associated
Business Men of Bellefonte, which will
be held at Hecla park on Thursday,
August 16th. Ordinarily this is one
of the largest gatherings of the picnic
season and the committee in charge is
arranging a very attractive program
for the day, which will include base-
ball, swimming, boating and other
sports. Keep the date in mind and
help swell the crowd when the day ar-
rives.
——On Friday afternoon Louise
Peron, four year old daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Louis Peron, and Harry
Ganoe, six year old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Ganoe, both of Houtzdale,
were coasting down a hill in their lit-
tle express wagon. At a street cross-
ing they ran into an automobile and
the little girl died within an hour of
the injuries sustained while the boy
is in the Philipsburg hospital, serious-
ly, though not fatally, injured. The
driver of the car was held blameless
for the accident.
——Several weeks ago the “Watch-
man” told of an old bear and two cubs
that were frequently seen in the
neighborhood of Runville, but it seems
that these are not all the denizens of
the forest that are domiciled in that
locality. Within the past week or ten
days a huge bobcat was seen prowling
around in the edge of the forest while
rabbits are unusually plentiful and al-
most as tame as house cats. A good
sized flock of young wild turkeys has
also been seen and quite a number of
pheasants.

In these days when most young
people spend a large portion of their
time planning vacations, picnics and
about everything else but work it is
real refreshing to hear that there are
a few old-timers left who are not
afraid of work, and among this num-
ber ‘can be mentioned our life-long
friend, Capt. W. H. Fry, the “Watch-
man’s” loquacious Pine Grove Mills
i correspondent. The captain was 81
i years old on Wednesday and spent the
day in the wheat field helping to gar-
ner his crop of golden grain. More
; than that, he has made a full hand in
{ the haying every day and at night
| responded to calls for his services as
a veterinary. Of course, nine out of
ten people in Centre county know
Capt. Fry almost as well as we do, but
it. is worthy of more than passing
mention that at his age he is able to
make “a hand” in the harvest field and
at anything else that comes his way.

——The three seventeen ton trans-

poration have been safely landed on
their concrete foundations at the big
transforming station being erected
along the road between Bellefonte and
Roopsburg. Their transfer from the
railroad to their permanent location
was slow and laborious work, owing
to their extreme weight and unusual
size but was accomplished without an
accident or mishap of any kind. While
the transformers compose the inte-
gral part of the new station there is
an abundance of other attachments to
install before the wires can be con-
nected which will give Bellefonte and
outlying sections the additional ad-
vantage of a current supply direct
from the Warrior Ridge plant of the
Penn Central Electric company. When
this is accomplished, however, electric-
ity users will be safeguarded against
any accident at the Milesburg plant of

might result in the shutting off of the

Bellefonte Chautauqua Will Open Its
Sessions Tomorrow.
Chautauqua will open its regular
summer engagement in Bellefonte to-
morrow (Saturday) with the two
o'clock session, and a splendid pro-
gram of worth while events is in store
a great institution covering thousands
of cities and towns throughout the
of the most potent influences for civic
betterment and community improve-
ment existing today. The Bellefonte
engagement of five days should have
the support of every man, woman and
child who has the best interests of the
town and community at heart, and who
is vitally concerned in all agencies
that uplift and tend toward progress.
The program this season will bring
to our town some of the very best mu-
sical, dramatic, and platform talent in
the lyceum world. The entertainment
features will be bright and clean and
cheerful, while any one of the lec-
tures will be worth the price of the
whole season ticket. The show,
“Crossed Wires,” is billed as a dra-
matic triumph, and the parts will be
carried by seasoned players. In this
varied program the people of the town
and county will have the opportunity
of hearing and seeing talent that oth-
erwise they likely would never have
the privilege of enjoying.
The sale of season tickets will pos-
itively close at two o’clock Saturday,
and there will be no tickets sold at cut
prices. If you buy a season ticket
you will be helping meet the guaran-
tee, but if you do not and there is a
deficit then that amount will have to
be paid equally by the seventy-five
public spirited citizens who obligated
themselves for the whole amount of
qua possible in Bellefonte this year.
Single admissions paid at the gate do
some tickets. The little town of Pic-
ture Rocks, Lycoming county, has sup-
ported an $1800 Chautauqua for many
years, and the village has only 600 in-
habitants. Why can’t Bellefonte, the
town that boasts of its culture and
traditions, also support this same pro-
ject to the extent of $1300?
The following persons have been
canvassing the town and will be glad
to see that you are supplied with the
tickets you need: E. F. Young, J. D.

Good Football Material Assured for
Bellefonte Academy.
The athletic committee of the Belle-
fonte Academy will soon have the
football schedule for the coming sea-
son completed. The opening game
will be on Hughes field and will be
with either the Altoona Indians or the
Bellwood eleven.
Coach Carl G. Snavely has already
secured the bulk of his squad from
which the first team will be chosen.
The boys rank among the best athletes
in New York State, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania, among the number being Black-
burn, O’Neill, Breen, Mosko, O’Brien
and Archibald, veteran players who
will be the nucleus around which the
team will be built. The list of new
"boys will include some widely known
"High school athletes and young play-
"ers from several of the best independ-
ent teams in western Pennsylvania.
! The opening game will be plenty
hard enough to test the metal of the
new candidates and will determine the
"lineup for the second game which will
| be with the Penn Freshmen, at Phila-
delphia. The latter team has always
been considered as the hardest fresh-
men team in the country to beat. A
victory over them, which is a possibil-
ity, would mean a great deal for the
Bellefonte Academy, probably more
than any other game to be played.
