Some of our farmers near town
have been missing corn in quite large
amounts. The names of those who
have been filling their cribs from the
fields of Wilbur Bitner and Irvin Wat-
kins have become known and unless it
is immediately stopped the owners
may be compelled to place the affair
in the hands of the sheriff; and as the
case now stands there is evidence and
proof to convice the offenders of being
genuine thieves. We would therefore
advise the guilty parties to lay low to
aveid publicity and scandal, and per-
haps a nice fine or jail sentence.

Make a Try for the House, Anyway.
The school children of Centre coun-
ty are being given the opportunity to
take part in one of the most extensive
industrial educational contests ever
undertaken.
It is the Better Home Lighting con-
test, sponsored by the electrical in-
dustry of the United States and its al-
lied industries.
Prizes will be awarded winners in
Bellefonte by the local committee and
these winners will be entered in the
national competition. The winner of
the national contest will be given a
$15,000 model electrical home con-
structed on any site the lucky contest-
ant selects.
The contest is to be educational
with the object of teaching the on-
coming generations some of the rudi-
ments of proper illumination.
All school children attending the
schools in Centre county, public and
parochial, from the sixth grade up-
ward, are eligible. The local commit-
tee is now distributing the plan books
and necessary material for entrance
and competition has already begun.
A picture of the grand prize, the
$15,000 house appears in another col-
umn of this issue. The other prizes
are gold coin, running from $5 to $20
and all of them are for Centre county
school children exclusively,
Urge Feeding of Game in Winter.
Extensive preparations to feed wild
game during the winter months has
been started by the Game Commission.
A State-wide appeal to farmers and
sportsmen’s organizations has been
sent out.
In all sections of the State, accord-
ing to Seth Gordon, Commission sec-
retary, farmers have promised to pro-
vide an acre or more of standing
buckwheat or else to provide several
shocks of corn for the shelter and
feeding of small game when the snow
covers the ground.
Feeding will be carried on without
any expense to the game fund in most
cases, but provisions have been made
to purchase and distribute grain to
sportsmen’s organizations, Boy
Scouts and individuals.
The appeal cites the fact that one
bad winter would make scarce the
abundant supply of quail now in
Pennsylvania. There are about 40,000
birds in the State now.

Have You Uric Acid
Trouble?
Many Bellefonte Folks Are Learning
How to Avoid It.
Are you lame and achy; tortured
with backache, and rheumatic pains?
Feel nervous, depressed, and all-
played-out? Then look at your kid-
neys! When the kidneys weaken uric
acid accumulates, poisoning blood and
nerves, and many mysterious aches
and ills result. Help your kidneys
with a stimulant diuretic. Use Doan’s
Pills! Your friends and neighbors
recommend Doan’s.
Mrs. HA W. Raymond, Reynolds
Ave., Bellefonte, says: “My kidneys
were weak and I had a dull aching
and soreness across my back. I could
hardly sweep. I tired easily and had
nervous headaches. My kidneys act-
ed too often and annoyed me. I used
Doan’s Pills from Runkle’s drug store
and was relieved of the backache. My
kidneys were in good order, too.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same that Mrs. Ray-
mond had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs.,
