New Chaplain and Dean of Women at
Penn State.
With the opening of the sixty-ninth
year at The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege on Wednesday, the student body
of approximately 3000 learned of the
appointment of two new college offi-
cials with whom they will come in dai-
ly contact. President John M. Thom-
as announced at the opening exercises
that a college chaplain had been se-
cured, and that a new dean of women
was appointed.
The chaplain’s office at Penn State
has been vacant since the departurre
of the Rev. R. R. Reed eight years
ago. Dr. Frazer Metzger, a Congre-
gational minister from Randolph, Vt.,
has been selected for this work which
calls for a very close and intimate re-
lationship with the men students. He
has made a success of work with
young men and in community activ-
ities. In addition to acting as an ad-
visor to the young college men he will
conduct the daily chapel exercises.
Miss Charlotte E. Ray has been ap-
pointed dean of women to succeed
Miss Margaret A. Knight who resign-,
ed a few weeks ago after four years
of service. Dean Ray was the acting
dean’ of women during the latter part
of last year at Penn State, when she
became well known and liked by the
300 girl students at the college.

Plan Auto Tour to Auto Show.
Plans for an auto tour of dairy far-
mers and others connected with the
big dairy industry in this county to
the National dairy exposition on the
State fair grounds at Syracuse, N. Y.,
October 5-13, are being worked out
by county agent J. N. Robinson.
If everybody who intends to visit
the exposition will send their names
to the office Mr. Robinson: said he
would be able to completé “arrange-
ments and announce details of the
tour in plenty of time before it opens.
“Every dairy farmer in the county,
and every man connected in any wa
with the dairy industry, ought to vis-
it the exposition,” said Mr. Robinson.
“It is sure to furnish many ideas for
the progressive farmer who wants to
build up his dairy business, because it
assembles all the latest and best ideas
on dairy methods from all parts of
the country.
“In addition, the exposition brings!
together the finest cattle in the coun-
try and has many other features of
real value. This is the first time it
has been held in this part of the coun-
try and may be the last. At any rate,
it doesn’t come every year, and for
this reason every dairyman should
make an extra effort to see it. It is
well worth the cost of a few days’
trip.”
P. H. Gherrity Injured by Auto.
Former postmaster P. H. Gherrity
JUDGE.—Dominic Francis Judge,
for many years a well known figure
in Bellefonte, died at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. G. Oscar Gray, on
west High street, at one o'clock on
Tuesday morning. He had been ail-
ing for two years or longer with ar-
terio-sclerosis and about two months
ago developed pernicious anemia
which resulted in a rapid decline, al-
though he had been confined to bed
only two weeks. His death occurred
just thirteen years and one day from
the death of his wife, who prior to her
marriage was Miss Mary Smith, of
Philipsburg.
Mr. Judge was a son of James and
Mary Finegan Judge and was born at
Bald Eagle on June 11th, 1863, mak-
ing his age 70 years and 3 months.
From Bald Eagle his parents moved
to Birmingham but when Dominic
was six years old they located in Ty-
rone and it was there his boyhood life
was spent. He attended the public
schools until fifteen years of age when
he went to work for the Pennsylvania
Railroad company. He saved his mon-
ey and in the course of several years
matriculated as a student at St. Fran-
cis College. He did not complete the
course at that institution but quit
college to again enter the employ of
the P. R. R. In due course of time he
was promoted to a freight conductor,
which position he filled most accepta-
bly until he resigned thirty-five years
ago to come to Bellefonte as train-
master on the Buffalo Run railroad,
now the Bellefonte Central. His
death leaves W. Homer Crissman as
the sole survivor in this place of the
old operating force when the Collins
Brothers opened the road for traffic
through Buffalo Run Valley. For
thirty-three years he ably filled the
position to which he was appointed
over a third of a century ago, or un-
til his retirement almost two years
ago on account of ill health.
Mr. Judge was a Democrat in pol-
itics and although he never was es-
pecially keen after public offices he
was twice elected to Bellefonte bor-
ough council and was honored by that
body by being made its president for
two years, an unusual honor in a Re-
publican organization. . Needless to
say he made a very able presiding of-
ficer.
A quiet, uncstentatious man he was
faithful to every trust imposed in him.
In his dealings with his fellowmen
he was just as considerate of their
{interests as he was of his own.
Though of a retiring disposition he
was a good, wholesome companion,
and was esteemed by all who knew
him intimately. :
{ He was.a faithful member of the
| Catholic church all his life and always
, a regular attendant. He was also a
{ member of the Bellefonte Lodge of
Elks. He was the last of a family of
five children and his only immediate
i survivor is one daughter, Mrs. G. Os-
car Gray, of Bellefonte. :
Fung¥al services will be held in St.
‘John’s Catholic church at 9 o'clock
this (Friday) morning by Rev. Father
| Downes, after which the remains will
! be taken by auto hearse to Tyrone for
i burial in the Oak Grove cemetery.

| POTTER.—William Bigler Potter,
| the well known merchant of Karthaus,
{ died in the Clearfield hospital on Wed-
nesday of last week, being a victim of
, the typhoid fever epidemic that has
| prevailed at Karthaus and vicinity for
i some time past.
| He was a son of Dr. Johnson W.
; and Alamanda Hoffman Potter and
{was born at Karthaus on July 9th,
11863, hence was a little past sixty
-years of age. He was educated in the
| public schools of that locality and as
'a young man went to work as a clerk
+in his father’s mercantile store. Some
years later he purchased the store
| and continued in active charge up un-
itil his late illness. He was also a
i member of the coal mining company

some distance. As it was he was children, Bessie, Grace, Johnson W.,
badly bruised and sustained a num- | Dudley, Mary, George and Harry, all
ber of minor cuts, keeping him housed at home. He also leaves one brother,
up most of the week. Mr. Gherrity
accompanied other members of the
Undine fire company down to north
Water street where they tested out
their pumper. On the return he rode
on the pumper to the Undine house
on Bishop street, stepped off and
started across the street just as Mr.
Hill came along in his car. The lat-
ter was running slowly, otherwise Mr.
Gherrity might have been more ser-
iously injured. As it is he expects to
be out in a day or two.
One Killed, the Other Escaped.
On Saturday, September 1st, two
graduates of The Pennsylvania State
College, Donald D. Herr, ’02, and
Joseph S. Ruble, ’01, both of Cleve-
land, Ohio, were traveling along a
mountain road in Japan when they
came to the village of Miyanoskita
and stopped before a curio shop. Herr
went inside to make some purchases
and Ruble remained outside. Then
came the disastrous earthquake. The
curio shop and all it contained slid
into a deep gorge and Herr was kill-
ed. Ruble was pinned to the ground
by a falling telephone pole, which
probably saved him from sliding into
the gorge. He was only sligthly in-
jured. Both men were in Japan on
business connected with the firms
which they represented.
——Mrs. Harry C. Valentine last

UNDERCOFFER. — Mrs. Mary
North Undercoffer, widow of William
Undercoffer, died at four o'clock last
Thursday afternoon at the home of
her son, Joseph W. Undercoffer, as
the result of a general breakdown.
She was a daughter of Joseph and
Elizabeth Ashton North, who came to
Centre county from England, and was
born at Roopsburg in March, 1836,
hence was in her eighty-fourth year.
She married Mr. Undercoffer about
1859, and all her life was spent in
this vicinity. Her husband died many
years ago and she occupied her own
home just south of Bellefonte until
two months ago when her condition
became so feeble that she was taken
to the home of her son. She was the
last of her generation of the North
family and her only immediate sur-
vivor is her son, Joseph W. Under-
coffer.
She was a member of the Episcopal
church and Rev. M. DePui Maynard
had charge of the funeral services
which were held at ten o'clock on
Monday morning, burial being made
in the Union cemetery.
Among those from out of town here
for the funeral were William Under-
coffer, of Ambridge, Pa.; Mr. and Mrs.
Edward Moeslein and little daughter,
of New York city; Charles and
James Dinges, Mr. and Mrs. Morris
Moyer and Mrs. English, of Williams-
port, and Mrs. William Beck, of Nit-
tany.

KREAMER. — Mrs. Anna Mary
Kreamer, widow of William Kreamer,
a long-time resident of Centre county,
died last Thursday afternoon at the
home of her son-in-law, W. H. Klep-
per, in Lock Haven, of general debil-
ity.
A daughter of John and Elizabeth
Ruhl, she was born in Rebersburg on
July 14th, 1838, hence had reached the
age of 85 years, 1 month and 26 days.
In early life she married William
Kreamer and practically their entire
life together was spent in the vicinity
of Rebersburg. She was an active
member of the Lutheran church and
was unusually generous and charita-
ble in disposition. Coming of an old
line Democratic family she inherited
the party tradition and when the
women were given the ballot she was
very prompt in registering and just
as prompt in casting her ballot.
Her husband died in 1913 and her
only survivors include four grand-
children, one brother, Jonathan
Ruhl, of Tylersville, and one sister,
Mrs. Rose E. Blair, of Williamsport.
Funeral services were held at the
Klepper home in Lock Haven on Sun-
day afternoon by Rev. C. T. Stein, and
on Monday morning the remains were
taken to Millheim where final services
were held in the Lutheran church at
ten o’clock, burial being made in the
Fairview cemetery.

Football at the High School.
Quite a number of candidates for
the Bellefonte High school football
team have reported for practice and
are being coached by Harris Nicely,
a graduate of Gettysburg College,
class of ’21, and a four year varsity
man. Although the team lost a num-
ber of players through graduation last
year a large number of new candi-
dates are out so that there will be no
lack of material from which to select
a team. At least forty candidates are
now in training and the prospect is
for the best team in the history of the
school. The schedule so far arranged
includes the following games:
October 6.—Curwensville at home.
October 13.—Kylertown at home.
October 19.—Mt. Union at home.
October 27.—Milton at Milton.

people shared in the hundreds of dol-

| Big Enrollment at Bellefonte Acade-
my, and Strong Faculty.
The Bellefonte Academy is opening
this week with one of the largest en-
rollments in its history, and an unusu-
ally strong faculty. The present year,
therefore, promises to be a “red let-
ter” one for the “school upon the hill.”
We often wonder how many of our
good Centre countians realize how
| this historic Academy has not only
‘ put Bellefonte upon the map, but has
kept it there during the past one hun-
dred years. How many realize that
{it requires a great expenditure of
time, energy and money, amidst the
tremendous competition that prevails
among the hundreds of splendid
schools in the country, to secure the
fine lads who come here from several
of our leading States? How many
realize that this school is turning
thousands and thousands of dollars
into the business channels of this
county that would go to other school
towns of the country, but for the ef-
i forts of the Academy management?
Bear in mind always, too, that the
| Academy is a promoter of the best in-
i terests of the community, whether
. athletie, social, scholastic or religious.
| Students in the town or county whe
| would like to enjoy the advantages at
the Academy as day students will
please consult James R. Hughes.
The faculty for this year is as fol-
i lows:

Veterans Rejoice and are Thankful.
Following are the resolutions passed
i at the annual meeting of the Centre
county veteran club, held at Grange
park last Wednesday:
The Centre County Veteran association
in this, their fiftieth annual reunion, do
hereby place themselves on record as fol-
i lows:
Resolved first, that we rejoice in the
fact that so many of the surviving mem-
bers of the Grand Army of the Republic
have been permitted to gather in this,
| their annual reunion.
| Resolved second, that we regret the re-
! moval of so many of our late comrades by
the hand of death, who have answered the
last roll call, but our hope is that our
loss is their gain.
Resolved third, that we mourn with the
millions of people throughout this great
country of ours in the death of Warren G.
Harding, late President of the United
States, and that we sincerely sympathize
with the members of his bereaved family.
Resolved fourth, that our thanks are
due to the Grange Park association of
Centre county for the use of its hall for
this, our annual meeting.
Resolved fifth, that our thanks are due
| to the Citizens band of Ferguson town-
| ship, for the excellent music they have
| furnished us on this occasion.

Friday, the 13th, is Not Unlucky Un-
less You Think So.
President Wilson’s lucky number is
13. He has also said that Friday is
his lucky day. We all have our hob-
‘bies, so why shouldn’t we ride them
occasionally ?
i If you get drowsy after reading;
if the sunlight seems too Fright at
times; if the print is clearer if held
further away these are signs that your
eyes need attention.
Consult me some Friday
want it to be your lucky day.
