bility of having the entire battalion

PRIZES OFFERED.
Stage All Set for Elk’s Big Carnival
This Evening.
The stage is all set for the big Hal-
low-een carnival of the Bellefonte
Lodge of Elks this evening, and the
only thing remaining is for the weath-
er man to smile instead of weep. Since
last week a number of additional priz-
es have been offered, as follows:
Five one-pound boxes of candy, Dono-
van & Bressler, Williamsport.
Toy truck, toy tractor, toy touring car
and toy coupe, Beatty Motor company.
Hat rack with double plate glass mir-
ror, W. R. Brachbiil.
Pair bed room slippers, Max Kalin.
Aluminum percolator, Potter-Hoy Hard-
ware company.
Prize, Lauderbach-Griest Co.
No special characters have been
designated for the above prizes but
they will be awarded for unusual fea-
tures in the parade that appeal to the
judges as worthy and deserving.
The committee announces that it is
very important that all persons going
in the parade as Mummers try to im-
itate the characters as much as possi-
ble for which advertised prizes are of-
fered, and then when they take place
in line of parade, to try to get with
others of the same character in the
line. In so doing they will assist them-
selves as well as the judges in award-
ing the prizes.
No person will be awarded more
than one prize, and no tickets for
prizes awarded will be genuine unless
they are signed by the chairman of
the judges, W. Harrison Walker.
Only tickets presented to those in line
will admit them to the Elk’s club after
the parade to receive and exchange
for the ticket directing them where to
secure the prize they have won.
As stated last week, the parade will
form on Bishop and south Allegheny
streets at 7:30 o’clock, so that all per-
sons intending to take part should be
on the ground at least ten minutes be-
fore that time so they can be placed
properly. The parade will move
promptly at 8 o’clock and will in-
clude the I. O. O. F. band, Wetzler’s
band of Milesburg, and the Lemont
band.
Owing to the fact that the closing
of the Harvest Queen contest was ex-
tended from Wednesday evening until
10 o’clock last night we are unable to
give the names of the winners, as the
“Watchman” went to press before
that hour. But the lucky one of the
four young ladies in the contest will
carry her part in keeping with the
character is self-evident, as all of
them were entirely worthy of the
honor. The Harvest Queen costuine,
by the way, is now on exhibition in
the window of Katz's store.
Don’t forget the big charity ball at
the armory after the parade, and re-
mémber that the good Penn Centre
Eight orchestra is going to make you
jazz dance until you can go home and
say what a good time you had for the
small price of admission that will be i
charged.
Persons driving into town to wit-
ness the parade, or take part therein,
are requested not to park in the cen-
ter of the town, or on the streets as
notified by proclamation issued by the
burgess through the weekly papers
and by circular distributed between
the hours stated.
Hunting Season for Small Game Will
Open Tomorrow.
Tomorrow, November 1st, will mark
the opening of the hunting season for
squirrel, rabbits, ring-necked pheas-
ants, ruffed grouse (the ordinary
pheasant) wild turkey and bear, in:
‘fact for all kinds of game except elk
and deer. With fair weather tomor-
row every piece of woods in Centre
county will be filled with hunters if
half the men who have taken out li-
censes go out for the opening day,
but the important thing will be to find
the game.
According to general reports pheas-
ants will not be very plentiful. The
cold, wet weather during the nesting
season in the spring was unusually
hard on the young birds, not only of
pheasants, but wild turkeys as well,
and the consequence is they are re-
ported as quite scarce. Of course
there are some birds in the woods if
the hunter is fortunate in chasing
them up.
Squirrels have not been very plen-
tiful in Centre county for some years,
owing almost entirely to the cutting
down of the hickory trees, the nuts of
which = are their favorite food. A
sprinkling of the frisky little animals
can still be found along the foot of
the mountain ranges, but they are not
plentiful enough to make hunting
them good sport. Rabbits, however,
are reported quite plentiful but the
weather is
them with any degree of satisfaction.
So it will be mostly a matter of guess
work as to what to hunt or where to
go to find the most game tomorrow.

——Thousands of trout are now be-

| Bellefonte fish hatchery at Pleasant
. Gap for planting in the various trout
streams in the central part of the
State. The trout are from three to
- seven inches in length and at least fif-
"ty per cent. of them should survive
the change from the fish dams to the
‘open streams and furnish sport for
the hundreds of fishermen who next
spring will attempt to catch them
with rod and line.
——The patients at the Centre
County hospital feasted on raccoon
last week, the gift of W. S. Williams,
of Bellefonte. Mr. Williams, who re-
cently moved to Bellefonte from Cen-
tre Hall, is an adept at hunting and
capturing coons, having a record of
one hundred or more of the striped
animals during his hunting experience?
The two he captured last week weigh-
ed 21 and 19 pounds and they were
both nicely dressed when he took
them to the hospital.

——All drivers of motor cars are
specially urged to conform with the
traffic rules and regulations promul-
gated for this evening during the big
Hallow-een celebration. Don’t at-
tempt to park on the streets reserved
for the parade or the formation of
same, and don’t attempt to drive
through the crowd. The latter is es-
pecially important as it has to do with
the safety of the hundreds of women
and children on the streets and will
obviate all danger of accidents.
“Flashes of the Great White Way.”
The brightest spots of Broadway
hits and’ bits of the big musical com-
edy successes, the catchiest songs, the
fastest stepping chorus and a glimpse
of New York’s hectic night life is of-
fered in “Flashes of the Great White
Way,” the charming musical revue
that will be the offering at the Moose
Temple theatre on Thursday, Novem-
ber 6th. Theatre goers may view the
widely heralded night court and en-
joy the snappiest numbers and fea-
tures of Broadway’s leading features
in the specialty numbers as offered
by Miss Kathlyn McConnell, Miss
Mona Mura and Miss Mildred King.

Big Homecoming Crowd Witnessed
State’s Defeat by Syracuse.
One of the biggest homecoming
crowds in the history of State Col-
lege saw the Nittany Lions go down
in defeat, last Saturday afternoon, at
the hands of the sturdy Syracuse Uni-
versity eleven, not because the New
Yorkers played the better game but
because the breaks were in their favor.
A fumbled ball caused the catastro-
phe. The score was 10 to 6 in favor
of the visitors. It is estimated that
twenty thousand people witnessed the
titanic struggle, hundreds of loyal
supporters from Syracuse having mo-
tored to the College to see the game.
A big mass meeting was held on
Friday evening with Judge H. Walton
Mitchell, president John M. Thomas
and Hugo Bezdek as the principal
speakers. It was followed by a smok-
er in the armory and the consumption
of a considerable quantity of fresh
cider and pretzels.

“Sundown”
i ested in the stupendous motion piec-
ture, “Sundown,” which will be shown
at the Moose Temple theatre, next
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings. It dramatizes the great
virile west in its primeval days and
also picturizes the passing of the cat-
tle kings who for years reigned su-
preme on the broad plains of the mid-
dle west. The picture was six months
in the making and 100,000 cattle
are shown in one scene. “Sundown”
takes rank with such pictures as “The
Birth of a Nation,” “The Four Horse-
men,” “Intolerance” and “The Cov-
ered Wagon.” It is filled with ro-
mance from beginning to end and has
a very appealing little love story wov-
en through the mazes of its vast fab-
ric. This is one of the really big
First National productions that every-
body ought to see.
Potato Seed Source Tests.
The potato seed source tests con-
near Pine Grove Mills, in co-operation
with the Farm Bureau, verified the
opinion of our best potato growers
that it pays to buy new seed from
some good source every year. First
year Michigan Russetts yielded 197.37
bushels more per acre than second
year seed. Along with the Russetts
three sources of Cobblers seed were
used, North Dakota, Maryland and
Maine. ‘The Cobblers from Maine
gave an increase above the other two
sources of 25.9 bushels per acre. Fol-
lowing is the result of the tests:
Somerset Rawlieghs, 417.88 bu. per acre
Potter Co. Russetts, 258.62 bu. per acre
- Michigan Russetts, 522.69 bu. per acre
Kepler Russetts, - 325.32 bu. per acre
North Dakota Cobblers, 142.92 bu.
lers, 213. 7 bu.
Maryland Cobblers, 187. 8 bu.
Mr. Kepler also achieved the honor
of being the first grower of the county
to become 2 member of the 400 bushel

! Open House at Local Y Drew Big
Crowds.
Open house at the local Y. M. C. A.
last week, in celebration of the 55th
anniversary of the organization, drew
big crowds every day and evening;
especially as institute week permitted
all the children to attend. The phys-
ical department was the main attrac-
tion, especially the indoor baseball
games between the grade pupils of
the Bellefonte schools. :
The game on Monday morning was
between the 5th grades of the Alle-
gheny and Bishop street scheols, the
former winning by the score of 60 to
38. In the afternoon the sixth grades
played, Bishop street being the vic-
tors by a score of 34 to 10. Monday
evening the first games in the bowl-
ing league series were played, and as
evidence of the interest already man-
ifsted in this sport twelve teams have
reported.
On Tuesday morning physical direc-
tor Pandel took the younger boys on
a hike down to the old ore mines
where they had a weiner roast. On
Wednesday morning the Bishop street
seventh grade defeated the Allegheny
street seventh at indoor baseball by the
score of 36 to 13. By that time the
girls became interested in the sport
and two teams were organized with
the assistance of Miss Ash. They
played on Thursday afternoon and
Bishop street won by the score of 45
to 36. It was the most exciting game
of the week.
Thursday evening the gym class for
young ladies had its first meeting,
about twenty being present. They
were under the supervision of Mrs.
Robert Walker.
Sickness prevented the playing of
the semi-finals in the baseball series
on Friday and to fill in the program
the seventh and eighth grades of the
Bishop St. school played, the former
winning by the score of 24 to 12. On
Saturday morning the juniors were
out in force for their gym class, clos-
ing a busy and happy week. Satur-
day evening the bowling team defeat-
ed Renovo by a decisive score.
Physical director Pandel has issued
a call for basket ball practice on Mon-
day evening next, as he would like to
get the league started by November
15th.
Three Young Men Arrested for Caus-
ing Death of Dewey Stratton.
Three young men of Philipsburg,
Jay Price, Joseph Parsons and Wil-
liam Fry, were arrested by state po-
lice on Thursday of last week on the
charge of being implicated in causing
the fire which, on the night of Octo-
ber 1st burned a shanty at the coal
mine of Stephen Rusnak, in Rush
township, resulting in the death of
Dewey Stratton. The shanty in ques-
tion was divided into two parts, Mr.
Stratton occupying one and the mine
mule being housed in the other.
The day following the fire Price and
Fry were questioned in regard to any
knowledge they might have in regard
to it, and admitted that they had been
at the place the evening previous, but
maintained that everything was all
right when they left, and that Strat-
ton stood in the doorway and waved
good-bye to them. Later it was learn-
ed that Joseph Parsons was with the
crowd and following investigations by
state police the three young men were
arrested.
At a hearing before justice of the
peace Byron they were each held in
$1000 bail for trial at court, and in
default of same were brought to the
Centre county jail on Saturday after-
noon. It is also alleged that a war-
rant is out for the arrest of Lawrence
Smith, but he has left Philipsburg and
is reported to be in Pittsburgh.
Nation to Observe Annual Apple
Week.
The week of October 31st to No-
vember 6th has been designated na-
tional Apple week, according to infor-
mation received by county agent R. C.
Blaney. Apple week was first start-
ed in 1913, and since that time the im-
portance of the movement and the
scope of observance has steadily in-
creased. :
Recently the officers of the Interna-
tional Apple Shippers association
formed and incorporated the National
Apple Week assaciation incorporation.
W. L. Minick, of Chambersburg, is
one of the officers in the group back-
‘ing the new association.
Wholesalers, retail grocers, retail
merchants, jobbers, railroads, steam-
ship lines, civie organizations, boards
of education, hotels and restaurants
will participate in making Apple Week
a success all ever the country this
year.
The object of this week is to secure
a wider use of the apple, held as one
| of the most useful of fruits. It is ex-
pected that Centre county folks will
| join in the observance of Apple Week,
i and thus assist in moving Pennsylva-
nia’s big apple crop by getting their
supply of the delicious fruit quickly.
A Call to Prayer.
In accordance with a request from
the national W. C. T. U. for a prayer

ed 3 o'clock p. m. Monday, November
| 3rd, as the time for such meeting in
Bellefonte, and the place the W. C. T.
U. room in Petrikin hall. This elec-
