friends, called at the Mac Fry home

Mr. and Mrs. Ed Mayes and five

The big storm of Saturday night
badly disarranged the telephone serv-
ice in this locality, so that we were
practically isolated from the rest of
the world. A large number of trees
were uprooted and blown down and
the rain descended in torrents, wash-
ing fields and roads. Quite a number
of little chickens drowned in the high
water. Many men worked on Sunday
cleaning up the debris and putting the
roads in passable condition.
Hon. J. Will Kepler and Dr. R. M.
Krebs drove down the pike in a car-
riage and single driver on Tuesday

tims of a collision between their rig
and an automobile with a woman at
the wheel. Their vehicle was upset,
both men were thrown out, the horse
knocked down, harness torn and car-
riage considerably damaged. Fortu-
nately the men were not seriously
hurt but were compelled to walk back
to town, leading the horse.
The Baileyville sportsmen’s club
held their second meeting last Thurs-
day evening. The principal object the

D. F. Capp, J. Laird Holmes and Phil.
D. Foster, of State College. The offi-
cers of the club are G. W. Rossman,
president; Randall Rossman, secre-
tary, and Cyrus Powley, treasurer.
The organization starts out with a
membership of thirty enthusiastic
sportsmen. Regular meetings will be
held on the third Thursday evening in
each month.
Several weeks ago we advised the
young people to keep an eye on the
list of marriage licenses but our ad-
vice came to naught for the young
couple we had in view, namely Willis
Weaver, son of Emanuel Weaver, of
Baileyville, and Miss Orpha Judy,
daughter of Mr. J. T. Judy, of Penn-
sylvania Furnace, evaded their friends
and on Monday, June 23rd, motored to
Cumberland, Md., where they were
united in marriage. They went to
West Virginia on a honeymoon trip.
The bride is one of the most popular
of the younger set in her home local-
ity while the bridegroom is proprietor
of a flourishing garage and well able
to provide “all the comforts of home.”
May happiness and prosperity be their
portion through life.

A path of wreckage marked the
progress of last Wednesday’s high
wind storm through this section of
the county. In fact it was more like
a tornado or huge whirlwind than the
customary eastern storm. The big
barn on the farm of W. E. Weight, a
mile and a half south of Jacksonville,
was completely wrecked, as well as all
the outbuildings, and a peculiar thing
about it is that each building was ap-
parently blown in a different direc-
tion. The barn was literally lifted
from its foundation, shoved toward
the east and settled down over the
stables, badly demolishing them. How
the horses escaped being killed is a
mystery though some of them were
hurt bad enough to require the serv-
ices of a veterinarian. The only
livestock lost were two pigs and a few
chickens. The poultry house was lift-
ed from its foundation and smashed
to the ground in splinters. The ga-
rage was overturned and a Buick
touring car was treated likewise,
while the Ford runabout was blown
backwards out of the garage. Neith-
er car was much damaged. The chim-
neys were blown from the roof of the
house and trees and fences were lev-
eled. Mrs. Weight was out in the
yard when the storm broke. Two of
the sons, George and Floyd, were in
the barn and the rest of the family in
the house. Mrs. Weight was com-
pelled to cling to a clothes line post
in order to keep on her feet while the
first thing the boys in the barn saw
was the chicken house being smashed.
Then they felt the barn give and tim-
bers began to fall all around them.
How they managed to get out of the
barn they were unable to say but they
finally got to the house, though
George got a bad bump on his head
and shoulder from falling timbers.
Mr. Weight estimates his loss at about
five thousand dollars. Contractor
Breon, of Bellefonte, is in charge of
reconstructing the buildings, work on
which was begun at once. The barn
on the Pifer farm was also more or
less damaged.
BOALSBURG.
Miss Mabel Young, of Altoona, was
a guest of Miss Anna Sweeney, re-
cently.
Misses Edwina and Mildred Wie-
land, of Linden Hall, were in town on
Monday evening.
Samuel Kaup, of Juniata, spent

Mrs. Joanna Kaup.
Rev. Romig, of State College, will
preach in the Reformed church Sun-
day evening, July 13th.

Mills, visited in town on Friday.

5,000,000 Pounds of Copper Used in
Radio.
A recent survey of the radio indus-
try disclosed that 5,000,000 pounds of
copper have been consumed in the
United States on the 2,500,000 radio
sets now in use.
The survey which was made by the
Copper and Brass Research Asso-
ciation, indicated that the number of
radio sets in use would rapidly in-
crease to equal the number of auto-
mobiles and telephones now in use.
This, it was said, was likely to occur
in the next five years. In such an
event 5,000,000 pounds of copper
would be used annually.

Work Wearing You Out?
Bellefonte Folks Find a Bad Back a
Heavy Handicap.
Is your work wearing you out?
Are you tortured with throbbing
backache—feel tired, weak and dis-
couraged? Then look to your kid-
neys! Many occupations tend to
weaken the kidneys. Constant back-
ache, headaches, dizziness and rheu-
matic pains are the result. You suf-
fer annoying bladder irregularities;
feel nervous, irritable and worn out.
Don’t wait! Use Doan’s Pills—a
stimulant diuretic to the kidneys.
Workers everywhere recommend
Doan’s. Here’s a Bellefonte case:
Mrs. Howard Shuey, S. Water St.,
says: “My back ached so I couldn’t
get a night’s rest. My work tired me
out and I often had to neglect it. I
was hardly ever free from headaches
and dizzy spells and my kidneys didn’t
act right, either. Doan’s Pills from
the Parrish drug store stopped the
backaches and other signs of kidney
trouble.”
