PLEASANT GAP. Bert Fulton, of Harrisonville, mov- .ed to Bellefonte. Miss Pearl Irwin returned from her vacation at Punxsutawney. The bad as well as the good are .strengthened by organization. Mr. and Mrs. Patterson and son Robert, of Chester, are visiting at the Millward home. Miss Christine E. Weaver, after _spending a week at Lewistown, has re- turned to her home. Humanity will go farther to see a game of baseball played than to see innocent lambs play. A smile on the face is like the sun in the heavens—giveth life and light to all it shines upon. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Weaver spent the week-end with the Lee Brooks family, adjacent to Spring Mills. Miss Margaretta Keller is now a student at Pott’s Business College, at Williamsport. Margaretta is on busi- ness bent. ’ Mrs. Parker Washburn, of Nanty- Glo, and Ms. = i Saponte and daughter Mary, o resson, spent a ok Yoo, pleasantly at the Frank Barnes home. Incidentally, they took in a day at the Grange picnic, while here. The employees of Whiterock are elated since business is improving. Instead of laying off a day or two a week they are now required to work ten hours regular, with favorable prospects of a continuation of condi- tions for some time to come. The pay envelopes are fattening from time to time. Deep, thorough plowing, with a good point, is the initial act in the business of every farmer; and to make his vocation a success, this signal in- strument needs not only to run into ‘the soil of his field but must also be made to run through every area—so- ‘cial, political, financial and commer- .cial—that bears any relation to him. Harry Crissman, our first-class ton- .sorial artist, agrees to disagree with other barbers so far as pertains to raising the price for hair cuts,-shaves, ete. He thinks this -is not the time for an increase, so he will hammer away at the same old prices. Mr. Crissman conducted a first-class shop in the 31st ward, Pittsburgh; moved to Pleasant Gap and is succeeding ad- mirably well, and says he can exist without raising prices. His senti- ments are endorsed by his many pa- trons. When erecting a house it pays to build a good one. Doc. Stover is about finishing “his model residence down at the forks of the state road. Nothing but the best material obtain- able was used, and none but practical mechanics employed. Doc. and a brother did the carpenter work while the invincible Otto Hile did himself ‘proud doing the stone cutting. The handsome structure is a monument to Pleasant Gap. As a result Mr. Sto- ver has three substantial purchasers, and about fifteen would-be renters as applicants for the premises. Our public schools opened on Mon- day; our boys and girls were anxious- ly awaiting the happy occasion. The youngsters _will look back to their school day in after life, not as a place of penance. but as a scene of mental’ enjoyment, where the paths of learn- ing were strewn with flowers; and when memory recalls our school-days our hearts will warm up to a realiza- tion “That tall oaks from little acorns grow.” Years hence this multitude of school children will be mingling with the great world, helping forward, in one way and another, life’s good work. It is to be hoped that our youngster’s lives will be made a great success, and they may be admitted to a higher school in the life to come. Blessed are they who have good manners, even at home. Blessed are all considerate, thoughtful, obliging and agreeable people; blessed are they who have a sense of humor; for they shall inherit the earth. That is the true reading for a good wife; not the 1eekness of the folded hands and downeast eyes, but the meekness of a cheerful countenance and a ready wit. These are the meek souls who have already entered upon the inheritance of the fair earth and are rejoicing in it. When they go to heaven, they will HAMBONE’S MEDITATIONS WELL, DEY ONE MIGHTY PURTY THING BOUT DESE HAHD TIMES, ENNY-HOW == You DON' HATTER LISTEN AT SOME FoLKS BRAGGIN' BOUT HOW MUCH DEYS MAKIN'!! Copyright, 1921 by McClure Newspaoer Syndicate find themselves quite at home, their | epitaph will have no reference to dain- ing stockings; it will be in the words of the most touching obituary sen- tences: “She was so pleasant and agreeable.” : D. B. Allison, of Altoona, delivered a very forcible address at Noll’s hall last Sunday, at 2:30 p .m. Mr. Alli- son is a representative of the Inter- national Bible Students Association, who claim that “millions now living will never die.” They allege that the world’s war did not make democracy safe. That all nations are again pre- paring for war; that eivilization 1s now terribly shaken up by labor trou- bles, official lawlessness, profiteering, Bolshevism, revolution and anarchy. The cause of the world’s =istress and the answer to the above questions were very ably handled by the speak- er; the attendance was quite large, and much interest was mainfested by all present. The Divine plan was en- tered into in detail. Rev. M. C. Piper, of Milesburg, fill- ed the pulpit in the Methodist church, Sunday. He had a very creditable at- tendance. The Rev. has a great many friends here and no known enemies. He has fought the devil for almost a life time and although he is retired, he delights in aiding in the good work that he has been studiously engaged in for, you might say, a life time. Na- ture having endowed him with a strong mind in a strong body, he bears the burdens of toil that would crush smaller and weaker men. His tem- perament is happily combined, so that he has endurance associated with en- ergy, and his brain, while great in power, is fine in quality. The face shows courage, calmness, self-poise, firmness and force of will, over which plays the light of tenderness and be- nevolence. He seems to have been en- dowed with genius for analysis, and combative courage for decisive action. Notwithstanding Rev. Piper’s life long labor for righteousness, his satan’s majesty is apparently still in evidence or I would at least think se, from the actions of a few pretenders who pre- side in this vicinity. Care in choice of words is a great acquirement as we journey on the voyage of life and should attract the attention of all. Your first care in the choice of words should be that they shall express precisely your meaning. Words are used so loosely id society that the same word will often be found to convey half a dozen different ideas to as many auditors. Even where there is not a conflict of meanings in the same word, there is usually a choice of words with meaning suffi- ciently alike canbe used indiserimin- ately, without subjecting the user to a charge of positive error. But the cul- tivated taste is shown in the selection of such as express the most delicate shades of difference. Therefore, it is not enough to have abundance of words; you must learn the precise meaning of each word, and in what it differs from other words supposed to be synonymous; and then vou must select that which most exactly con- veys the thought you are seeking to embody. There is but one way to fill your mind with words; that is to read the best authors and acquire an accu- rate knowledge of the. precise mean- ing of their words. AARONSBURG.

Representative Hal Wimberly, who helped influence the Georgia Legisla- ture to defeat a bill intended to allow counties, school districts or muniei- palities to establish libraries, either y taxation or donation, told the House he was opposed to all libraries, that only three books in the world were worth reading. “Read the Bible. It teaches you how to act,” he said. “Read the hymn book, it contains the finest poetry ever written. Read the almanac; it shows you how to figure out what the weath- er will be.” PINE GROVE MENTIONS.

There’s nothing more convincing than the statement of some one you know and have confidence in. That's why this talk with Mr. Nighthart, of E. Bishop street, should be mighty helpful here in Bellefonte. Charles Nighthart, 331 E. Bishop St., says: “I became run down with kidney trouble and felt tired and worn out mornings. I could hardly get to work. There was a steady, dull ache across my back and when I stooped or lifted, sharp catches took me. I also had dizzy spells and my kidneys act- ed irregularly. I used Doan’s Pills from the Mott Drug Co. and they strengthened my back and kidneys.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr, Nighthart had. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. 69-36 EE —_— £ gealer granting the right oo fish on ul! ndays in this State. Other sports- men clubs throughout the State are being solicted by that club in an ef- fort to secure their co-operation in such a drive. > : But until the repealer is passed or g all sportsmen to observe the law and refrain from fishing on Sun- day. The club takes the view that Sun- Say fishing is no worse than Sunday golfing or motoring and that it is the oly day that thousands upon thous- ands of men can go fishing. A similar repealer was before the Legislature six years ago but failed. rm —— A —— BOALSBURG. _ Willard Rockey has secured a posi- tion in a garage at Petersburg, Harvest Home service wil be cele- brated in the Lu’heran church on Sunday, at 10:30 a. m. _ : Mrs. Pifer, of Pittsburgh, was an over Sunday visitor at the home of her sister, Mrs. W.
