The members of 1904 will re- une at Gettysburg next Tuesday and among them will be W. Cook Gramley, who has made a success in the cream- ery business at Spring Mills. ——1It is nothing novel these days to see autos of various shapes and de- signs but the most unique stunt that has been seen in Bellefonte in many a day arrived on Tuesday in a regular whale of a car, an exact reproduction of a package of Life Savers, “the can- dy mint with a hole.” Most every- body at one time or another has eat- en these little mints and the big car driven by A. D. Law as an advertis- ing medium through Pennsylvania naturally attracted considerable atten- tion. And when the fact is taken in- to consideration that it was only one of a fleet of seventy covering the United States and Canada, the magni- tude of the little Life Saver busines can be better appreciated. : : The house , in, SIXTY GRADUATE AT HIGH SCHOOL. Annual Commencement Exercises This Week Largely Attended. Sixty young men and women, five less than last year, graduated at the annual commencement exercises of the Bellefonte High school which began with the baccalaureate sermon on Sunday evening and closed with the alumni dance in the armory last night. The baccalaureate services were held in the Presbyterian church, which was crowded to the doors by friends of the young graduates. Rev. Malcolm De- Pui Maynard, rector of St. John’s Episcopal church, preached the ser- mon and chose for his text First Cor- they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize. So run, that ve may obtain.” With this as a set- ting the rector offered to his listeners a talk so straight-forward and con- vincing in its appeal that not only were the members of the class of 1924 given a goal toward which they might strive, but the older members in the audience have cause to review their own lives and estimate the value they have been to themselves and others. Mrs. M. R. Krader had charge of a mixed choir which rendered Mozart’s “Twelfth Mass” and “The Heavens are Telling.” The High school auditorium was filled to the doors on Monday even- ing on the occasion of the annual de- clamatory contest for the Col. W. F. Reynolds prizes. Music was furnish- ed by the High school orchestra and the following young men and women contested: William Harvey, Henry Stere, John Emel, Clyde Smith, Wil- Carpeneto, Mary Elizabeth Sloop, Betty Zerby and Gale Mitchell. At the conclusion of the program the judges awarded the prizes to John Emel and Mary Shoemaker, with hon- orable mention of Clyde Smith and Betty Zerby. program was the presentation of “Daddy Long Legs” in the Moose Temple theatre on Tuesday evening by the winners of the High school dramatic and glee club honors. A fair sized audience was present and the rendition proved a delightful di- version on the week’s program. While the main interest centered around the High school graduates many school patrons attended the closing exercises of the grade schools on Tuesday and Wednesday. The tertaining playlet in the High school auditorium on Tuesday morning and on Wednesday morning the Allegheny street grades gave a musical play in the auditorium. The usual school | science attracted the attention of every visitor to the High school build- ing. No newspaper description could ido justice to these exhibits, and the {only way to appreciate what the boys ‘and girls are being taught in these , two important lines of work is to view the result of their handiwork. We | venture the assertion that there are in Bellefonte many parents who have never have been inside the High school building, and it would be to their in- terest to go there at least during com- mencement week and see what their boys and girls are taught to do. The commencement exercises were held in the auditorium on Wednesday evening, at which time the address to the graduating class was delivered by Rev. Frazer Metzger, chaplain of The Pennsylvania State College. The High school orchestra furnished the music and Mr. Charles F. Cook, treas- urer of the Bellefonte school board, presented the diplomas to the young graduates and awarded the prizes, as follows: General Excellence, $10 given by Col. W. F.

Driver of Car Crashes Into Train on Way to Cemetery. | Last Thursday Mrs. Charles Price came to Bellefonte from Bitumen, Clinton county, for the purpose of placing flowers upon the graves of her two children who sleep beneath the sod in the Advent cemetery, but she failed in the performance of that lov- ing duty through an accident which caused her death in the Bellefonte ‘ } 1 1 morning. The Price family at one time lived in Bellefonte, down near the Sunnyside lime kilns, and it was while living there that two of their children died as the result of eating wild parsnips they had pulled out of the soft ground along Spring creek. At that time Mrs. Edith Knoff was one of their neighbors and it was to her home in Bush’s Addition that Mrs. Price went upon her arrival in Belle- fonte last Thursday. The result was Mrs. Knoff offered to drive her to the Advent cemetery on Friday morning in her Chevrolet coupe. With baskets and bouquets of flow- ers the two women left Bellefonte be- tween eight and nine o’clock and down the state highway and through Miles- burg. Passenger train west was a few minutes late and whether it was because of this fact or some other cause Mrs. Knoff failed to take due yard crossing with the result that she fast moving train. up as if it had been an egg shell and the main portion was carried along by the locomotive almost up to the Miles- burg depot before the train was { brought to a stop. | Both women were thrown out and , the horror-stricken passengers on the train expected to find them killed out- | right but such was not the case. They ' were brought to Bellefonte and taken to the hospital where it was found that the one side of Mrs. Price’s head had been crushed and she suffered a number of contusions and bruises. Mrs. Knoff had three ribs fractured, was burned and otherwise injured. Notwithstanding the seriousness of Mrs. Price’s injuries she lived until Sunday morning. crushed so that the brain was ex- posed. The unfortunate woman’s maiden name was Miss Eva Grubb, a daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Levi Grubb, and she was born near Bellefonte upwards of sixty years ago. She is survived by her husband and five children, Mrs. Malcolm Rine, of Bellefonte; Mada- line, Helen, Carson and John, at home. She also leaves a number of brothers and sisters. The remains were taken to Flemington where funeral services were held and burial made on Tues- day. Aged Man Frightened at Ku Klux Klan Lost Three days in the Mountains. The mysterious disappearance of William Mulbarger, a sixty year old bachelor, from the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Fortney, near Colyer, last Thursday night, caused a three days’ sensation in that portion of the South Side which ended late Sunday evening when the man, almost fam- ished with hunger and thirst and so weak he could scarcely walk, made his appearance at the William Klinefel- ter home in the gap above Colyer. For some time past, according to reports from that section, various per- sons had sport at Mr. Mulbarger’s ex- pense by telling him that the Ku Klux Klan were after him. Late last Thursday evening a car drove up and stopped not far from the Fortney home and seeing it Mr. Mulbarger jumped to the conclusion that it con- tained members of the Klan. out waiting to investigate he headed for the mountain and night coming on he became bewildered and lost his way. Searching parties hunted for him all day Friday and Saturday and finding no trace of his whereabouts a general alarm was sent out on Sun- day and members of the Boal troop and many State College students lit- erally combed the Bear Meadows dis- trict all that day. When the shades of evening began to fall the searchers returned home without having solved the mystery of Mulbarger’s disappearance but a short time after they left the mountains the almost worn-out man staggered in to the Klinefelter home and asked for something to eat. When his hunger was satisfied he told the story of his disappearance and recounted how he had become lost in the mountains and wandered around for three days and nights without a bite to eat and the only water he had to drink was wnat he could lap up out of the small moun- tain streams. Fortunately outside of his weakened condition he is none the | worse for his nightmare experience. A ——— A ———————— ——About half the trout fishing season is over and the number caught to date will not greatly deplete the supply in any stream in Centre coun- ty. In fact there have been very few days since the fifteenth of April when fishing conditions were at all good, and the result is that no large catch- es have been made. High and cloudy waters and unusually cool weather have done more this spring to pre- serve the trout than a dozen fish war- dens could have done. ——The Women’s Guild of St. John’s Episcopal church will give a card party in the parish house, Friday evening, June 6th, at 8 o'clock.
