Directors of American Lime and Stone
Company Meet.
The board of directors of the Amer-
ican Lime and Stone company met in
the general offices of the company, in
this place on Tuesday.
The board is composed of Hon. A.
G. Morris, chairman, C. A. Morris and
Irving Warner, of Bellefonte; J. King
McLanahan Jr., of Hollidaysburg;
Messrs. Steele, Montgomery; Parsley
and Dahll, of Philadelphia, and Chas.
Warner, Alfred Warner and C. C.
Bye, of Wilmington.
The Philadelphia members arrived
by motor from Lock Haven and after
breakfast at the Bush house an inspec-
tion trip was made over the various
operations of the company including
the mine, which is progressing rapid-
ly.
At the meeting later the only busi-
ness of interest to the community that
was transacted was the appointment
of Mr. W. R. Phillips as general man-
ager to succeed Mr. Irving Warner,
resigned. Mr. Phillips was formerly
general manager of the National Lime
Co., with headquarters in Washington,
D. C., and in this position has gained
a keen insight into the problems af-
fecting the lime industry.
After adjournment the board motor-
ed to the Spruce Creek Rod and Gun
club for luncheon and then journeyed
on to inspect the company’s large
crushed stone operation at Union Fur-
nace.
Mr. Irving Warner and his family
will not remove from Bellefonte until
about October 1st. His resignation
does not mean that he has severed all
connection with the American, for he
still remains as one of the directors
and vice president of the company and
will devote his time to the engineering
and production matters of the indus-
fry.
There will be general regret, in both
social and business circles, at the de-
parture of the Warner family from
Bellefonte. Though their residence
here has been one of only a year they
have so enthusiastically and helpfully
entered into all of the community ac-
tivities that, in a manner of speaking,
they never were “strangers in town”
and always will be most pleasantly re-
membered.

Fighting on a Motor Bus.
J. J. Johnson, of Philadelphia,
one of the men who came here with
the Tarvia tank road oiler, is being
held for a hearing before a Lock Ha-
ven justice for disturbing the peace
by fighting on one of the Emerick mo-
tor busses on Monday night, while of-
ficers are looking for R. V. Donnelly,
his companion, who made good his es-
cape. The two men, alleged to have
been intoxicated, got on the evening
bus at Lock Haven to come to Belle-
fonte. Quite a number of young wom-
en were on the bus and the two men
started in to making indecent remarks
to the women. Glenn A. Miller, .a pas-
senger on the car, intervened and the
men at once proceeded to pick a fight
with him. The driver of the bus,
Charles Saxion, then took a hand and
a free for all fight ensued before the
men were finally ejected from the bus.
When Mr. Saxion brought his bus to
Bellefonte he promptly swore out war-
rants for the arrest of the two offend-
ers.

Willard—Badger.—While such a
happy event had been looked for the
marriage of Robert Thompson Willard
and Eleanor Ruthe Badger, which took
place in the Reformed church Wed-'
nesday morning at eight o’clock, came
as a surprise to their many friends.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. Dr. Ambrose Schmidt in the pres-
ence of only the members of the fami-
lies of the happy young couple. Gil-
bert Nolan and Anna Badger, a sister
of the bride, were their attendants.
Immediately after the ceremony, or,
rather, as soon as they could get
away from a party of daylight cali-
thumpians, they departed for a motor
trip which will cover most of the State
since they intend visiting both Phila-
delphia and Pittsburgh. Upon their
return they will occupy apartments in
the home of Mr. Willard’s mother on
north Thomas street.
The groom is a son of the late D. I.
Willard and is now successfully car-
rying on the clothing and haberdash-
ery store founded by his father. His
bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Harry Badger, of Bishop street, and
for several years has been an account-
ant in the First National bank.
Deer Apparently Numerous.
While in town on Wednesday Will
Carson, who farms Harter Bros. “Val-
ley View” farm below Coburn, told us
that deer are seen in that section
every day by farmers whose fields run
up to the edge of the mountain. One
morning last week there were eight in
his ensilage corn at one time and
among them a pure white doe with a
fawn at her side.
Over in High valley it is reported
that they are running over the farms
like sheep. In one flock, that was
seen on the Snyder Bros. farm, there
were twenty-two.

Cherry Stones Lure Trout.
The open season for trout came to
an end on Tuesday and while the usual
number of piscatorialists are now ex-
pressing their disappointment over
the luck which attended their efforts
to land the wily trout, others seem
perfectly satisfied with results. No
extraordinarly large catches were
made on any of the streams in Centre
county during the season, but the ex-
pert fisherman seemed to be able to go
out most any day to some favorite
stream and bring home a mess. In
fact, he was always content with a
“mess,” making no effort to catch
more.
Naturally some good fish stories are
coming to light as the result of the
season’s sport but one of the best has
reference to a man using cherry
stones as bait. He was discovered one
day last week sitting on the banks of
Fishing creek, smoking his pipe and
with a look of peace and utter content
upon his face.
“How’s the luck,” asked a Belle-
fonte fisherman.
“Oh, I'm not catching any, but I’ve
had more fun today than I ever had,”
the stranger replied.
He then exhibited his line and
showed that he was using a cherry
stone as bait. He said that he had all
manner of flies but couldn’t entice the
trout to jump at any of them, but
they would take the cherry stone as
soon as it hit the water. He then ex-
plained by stating that on a trip to
Roaring Spring, in Blair county, he
had seen some boys throw cherries
to the three trout in the spring. The
trout would not take the cherries but
one hoy was eating the cherries and
throwing the seeds into the water and
the trout took every one.
This gave him an idea and he got a
dozen or more seeds, drilled holes
through them and used a silk thread
for tying them to his hook. To dem-
onstrate the efficiency of the cherry
seed as bait he made several casts and
every time the seed was taken by a
trout but the fish would disgorge it
before it could be hooked, and the man
declared that he had thoroughly en-
joyed the sport of trying to catch
trout with a cherry seed, even if he
didn’t land one.

New Building Boom Inaugurated at
State College.
More applications for admission to |
State College have been received up
to this time than ever before in the '
history of the institution. The rapid !
growth of State College, with its large
number of beautiful and magnificent
homes, has not been able to keep pace
with the steady growth of the college.
This fact is known by all who are fa-
miliar with conditions there.
In the central part of the town!
prices have increased very rapidly as |
the demand for business locations
have grown. Many residences have
been sold and business buildings erect-
ed. This, together with the number
of beautiful homes being built in and
near State College, has made the ques-
tion of obtaining desirable home site
property within reasonable distance
from the center of the town and the
college a serious one. However, a
number of enterprising business men
have practically solved this problem.
The firm known as the State Realty |
company, of State College, is offering '
for sale beautiful home sites on the
J. D. Keller farm, which was formerly
known as the Markle farm. This
property is located within the borough
limits, adjoining College avenue, and
with Beaver and Foster avenues, two
of the finest residential streets of the
town, extending through the property.
The State Realty is developing this |
property into a high class residential |
section. A corps of engineers have
been at work plotting and planning
the property into large and attractive '
home sites, which is highly restricted
for a residential section. This proper-
ty is destined to become the blue rib-
bon residential section of State Col- .
lege. |
It will be known as Beaver Lawn, |
and will be offered for sale at reason- |
able prices and on easy terms. |
Beaver Lawn will add a great deal
to the growth of State College, since
many of the residents of the town and :
vicinity have watched steadily and pa-
tiently for the opportunity to secure '
desirable home sites in that location.
It is a known fact that real estate |
in State College and vicinity is a good :
investment, and for twenty years past |
has proven to be a good money-mak-
ing proposition. Persons have doubled,
trebled and quadrupled their invest- |
ments in real estate in the past ten
years. |
It is the purpose of the State Real- |
ty company to buy, sell, rent and han-
dle real estate in every form. Per-
sons having real estate for sale,
whether developed or undeveloped, or |
for rent, will find it profitable to con- |
sult this firm, which for the present
is located at 224 E. College avenue.
Announcements of this development
of Beaver Lawn—this new residential
property—will be made from time to
time in the “Watchmédn:” Tt is the
plan of the organization to offer choice
home sites at very interesting prices, !
and then gradually increase them, but '
those desiring choice locations and in-
teresting prices should arrange im-:
mediately for an appointment to be
shown Beaver Lawn by calling State
College, Bell ‘phone 256. |
Getting Ready for the Big Picnic.
|
|
In preparation for the encampment
and fair at Grange Park, Centre |
Hall—September 1 to 7—now just!
one month away, necessary repairs to |
buildings and grounds are being made. i
Demanded by the growth of the camp, !
the lighting system will be extended. |
A new garbage pit has been opened. |
At the main entrance to the
park, a new gateway will replace the
old one of many years’ standing, and
to the casual visitor this should at
once.indicate that the encampment
and fair is each year growing bigger
and better in every way.
Tent erection - will not begin for
another week. Tenters whose loca-
tions will be changed, due to placing
of some play-ground equipment, will
be notified. This equipment has been
already ordered.
The Encampment and Fair commit-
tee met on Saturday afternoon and
will continue to meet every two weeks
until the encampment opens.
A meeting in the interest of the pa-
geant was held with Logan Grange
last Friday evening and enthusiastic
support promised. Mr. Gordon, who
has the pageant in charge, will, from
August 1st, give his entire time to its
development. Already in Grange cir-
cles State-wide interest has been ex-
pressed. And when actual preparation
begins, those who are willing to take
part in a big thing will be urged to
work with enthusiasm.

Little Girl Dies of Tetanus.
Elizabeth Corl, ten year old daugh-
ter of Otis and Ellen Corl, of Fergu-
son township, died last Friday of tet-
anus, the result of running a splinter
into her big toe. The accident happened
ten days previous and the splinter was
promptly extracted and for several
days the child felt no pain from the
puncture. Early last week the injur-
ed toe became sore and a physician
was summoned. He found the little
girl suffering with tetanus (lockjaw)
and though everything possible was
done the disease could not be over-
come and she passed away at the time
above stated.
Elizabeth was an especially bright
and attractive girl and a great favor-
ite in her home locality. She was
well advanced in her school studies for
one of her years and a regular attend-
ant at Sunday school. In addition to
her parents she is survived by six
brothers and three sisters. Rev. S. C.
Stover had charge of the funeral serv-
ices which were held at two o’clock
on Monday afternoon, burial being
made in the Pine Hall cemetery.
——Bellefonte friends of Henry
Keller Jr., will be glad to know that
he is now head of the department of
agricultural economics at the New
Jersey State College, located at New
Brunswick. When he went there a
year ago he took the position of as-
sistant professor and was promoted to
the head of the department upon the
resignation of Dr. Frank App. Since
living in New Brunswick Mr. Keller
has organized a conference for rural
religious workers which has just com-
pleted its meetings at the theological
seminary. The conference has devel-
oped into a school for rural pastors,
and will meet each summer in New
Brunswick.

Having the Confidence of the Public
is Better Than a Bank Roll.
And the confidence is what we are
striving to attain. Perhaps you have
been reading the ads placed in this
paper every week. If so, you are in-
terested and some time you will need
spectacles or eye glasses. This is
only the natural course of events.
When the time arrives I would like
to have an opportunity to prove that
I am in a position to give unsurpassed
service.
Let me demonstrate the advantage
of Made-to-order glasses.
