ane
Former German Kaiser's Sons Work-
ing in Offices.
A personal item in last week’s
“Watchman” told of the recent re-
turn of Mrs. John A. Waite and her
mother, Mrs.-Minnie Nagel, of Johns-
town, from a trip to Germany. Mrs.
Waite, since her marriage about a
year ago, has frequently visited in
Bellefonte with her husband, at the
home of the latter’s mother, Mrs.
George H. Waite, and her description
of the late royalty of Germany is
quite interesting.
She and her: mother spent two
months and a half in the “Vaderland,”
sailing from New York on the North
German Lloyd liner “Bremen” on May
29th and arriving in this country on
September 6th on the American liner
Finland. Their travels through Ger-
many included many interesting and
historical towns and cities.
In Berlin they were guests of Miss
Elsie Peters, who makes her home
with two Countesses who live at the
residence of the physician at the
Bethanian hospital. This hospital
was built by the dethroned Kaiser’s
brother and has a capacity of eight
hundred beds, with its own church,
green-houses, ete.
Mrs. Waite and her mother visited
the Kaiser’s palace at Berlin and the
palace at Charlottenburg as well as
the mausoleum where the old German
Emperor and the Kaiserin are buried.
Miss Peters and one of the Countesses
above referred to accompanied them
on a trip to Potsdam where they met
another Countess, the one who accom-
panied the Kaiserin on her ignoble
flight with her husband to Holland,
and at her death had charge of the
body on its trip back to Potsdam for
burial. This Countess now lives in
Potsdam, in one of the houses which
stands in the court of the former
Crown Prince’s palace.
The Kaiser and Crown Prince, of
necessity, continue to reside in Hol-
land, but the Kaiser’s other sons are
living in Potsdam and working in of-
fices like any commoner of the land.
The Kaiserin had four Countesses as
social secretaries, all of whom were
necessarily ladies of high title.
An interesting visit was that to the
palace of the Crown Prince at Pots-
dam, where both the Kaiser and the
Crown Prince were born. The kitch-
en where the food was prepared for
the Prince, his family and his lordly
guests, stands some distance away
from the palace so that none of the
odors of cooking food would permeate
the palatial surroundings or offend
the nostrils of kingly royalty. A
long super-heated tunnel runs from
the kitchen to the palatial dining hall
so that the food could be transported
to the table without becoming chilled.
The new palace of the Kaiserin at
Potsdam was also visited. This pal-
ace contains a private theatre with a
seating capacity of four hundred.
At Baden-Baden the visitors took a
trip on the incline which goes up sev-
en hundred metres, or ‘about 2800
feet. Trips were also made to Muen-
chen, through the large palace at
Chiemsee, near Muenchen, Konstanz,
Linden, Heidelberg, Darmstadt, the
capital of the province of Hessen-
Darmstadt, Cassel, Giessen, Naenheim
and Frankfort, but the Statue of Lib-
erty in New York harbor was the
most welcome sight of all when they
returned home a month ago.
——A big Hallow-een dance will be
given in the Bush Arcade, Friday
evening, October 19th. There will be
good music and everybody is invited.
P. R. R. Announces Prize Essay
Contest.
Announcement was made Wednes-
day that the Pennsylvania Railroad
system is offering approximately $1,-
000 in prizes in an essay contest, open
to all employees, on the subject of
“The benefits of employee ownership
of stock and securities of the Penn-
sylvania railroad through the Em-
ployes’ Provident and Loan associa-
tion.”
In each of the four operating re-
gions, at Altoona works, and in the
general offices, three prizes are being
offered for the best essays written by
the employees. The first prize will be
two shares of stock in the Pennsylva-
nia Railroad company, the second
prize one share of stock, and the third
prize a credit on the books of the
Provident and Loan association
amounting to half the cost of one
share of stock. In all, eighteen
shares of Pennsylvania Railroad cap-
ital stock will be awarded outright
and half payment on six other shares
will be credited to the winners. The
essays are limited to 500 words and
the contest throughout the System is
being conducted under the auspices of
The Pennsylvania News, the regional
newspaper for employees.
-.The Pennsylvania railroad em-
ployees’ Provident and Loan associa-
tion, the “security purchase” feature
of which will be dealt with in this es-
say contest, was established in July
of this year, with the approval of the
board of directors of the company, to
provide a new means by which the of-
flcers and employees might save mon-
ey, increase their pensions, invest in
homes and in the company’s securi-
ties, and obtain emergency loans on
their personal credit. e association
came in response to many requests
from employees in recent years for
additional opportunities for saving
and investing their wages or salaries.
It is purely co-operative, organized by
the officers and employees for their
benefit and at their own risk. Any
employee who has been in the service
of the company for one year is eligi-
ble to membership. Participation is
entirely voluntary.
The Pennsylvania Railroad compa-
ny encourages and assists the work of
the association by providing for the
safe keeping of its funds, paying its
ordinary operating expenses and sup-
plying the necessary facilities for
conducting its business.

The President of the Centre Hall Bor-
ough Council Replies to the
Reporter.
To The Democratic ‘Watchman, :
Bellefonte, Pa.
Gentlemen:
Permit me to use the columns of
your paper to voice the sentiment
very generally held in this communi-
ty that the senior editor of the Cen-
tre Hall Reporter has been very much
peeved since our council passed the
traffic ordinance on July 6th last.
He certainly has lambasted council
good for the last few months. But as
the Scotch proverb runs: “You can’t
lick a man by fighting him.” We are
not licked yet, and are very much
alive.
We fancy that he is sore because
he was not consulted in the matter,
but that was because our principles
and ideas do not run
channels.
All we have to say is that our ac-
tion has proven a public benefit. The
cost of our police service has been met
by fines collected or in process of col-
lection for violations of the Highway
laws and Borough Ordinances and
our citizens and the children, espe-
cially, are safer in crossing the
streets when the bluecoat is in sight.

Bakers Drop Lotus Leaves.
Shanghai bakers used to wrap their
bread and cakes in nice green lotus
leaves. But the days of this roman-
tic practice are gone forever. Ac-
cording to the new regulations cover-
ing bakery products, bread and other
products must be suitably wrapped in
grease-proof or similar papers. The
clause in the regulation covering this
particular requirement quoted by As-
| sistant Trade Commissioner A. V.
i Smith in a report to the Department
of Commerce, reads as follows:
“That bread and bakery products
, shall, upon sale or when carried or
i handled for sale, or delivered in bas-
| kets, vehicles or otherwise, be suita-
| bly wrapped in grease-proof paper or
| other cleanly covering, in such man-
| ner as to completely protect the
{bread from dirt, dust and flies, or
from harmful contact in handling.”
