Forty years ago Bellefonte and
especially the South ward, was pretty
liberally dotted with saloons and
drinking places, but all have disap-
peared. Today the gas pumps and

And nov, it is rumored, another com-

Bellefonte Hunters Get Nice Bag of
Birds.
Dr. David Dale, Willis Shuey and
John Curtin, of Bellefonte, and James
W. Herron, superintendent of the
Huntingdon reformatory, have the
record of bringing in the biggest bag
of birds brought down in Centre coun-
ty this year, thirty-eight in number.
They spent two weeks in camp over
back of Colyer and that is where they
got their birds. They also saw a
number of deer, but of course were
not hunting that kind of game.
Last Saturday four Bellefonte hunt-
ers went on a scouting expedition out
to the old McCloskey place back of Or-
They bagged three rabbits
and one pheasant, but chased up fif-
teen or twenty birds, most of them
beyond gunshot range. They also
saw a handsome big buck and a doe.
Up in the foothills of the Alleghe-
nies, back of Unionville, birds are re-
ported fairly plentiful, but gunners
who have tramped the territory from
end to end have had little success, as
the birds are wild and wily. The
small game season will close a week
from tomorrow, and so far not any
great amount has been bagged.
Our Pine Grove Mills correspondent
notes the fact that ten members of the
Shoemaker hunting party, of Fergu-
son township, motored to Potter coun-
ty on Monday on the hunt of bear, and
vesterday a telephone message to this
office announced the fact that they
had bagged one weighing 500 pounds.
While we don’t doubt the story of
, their getting the bear, the weight of
the animal seems to us like “consider-
! able of a ba’r story.”
Injured in Auto Wreck.
Theodore Seidel, aged 20 years, a
student at The Pennsylvania State
| College, is a patient in the Lewistown
hospital suffering wth a fractured col-
lar bone sustained when an automo-
‘bile in which he was riding turned
"turtle near Lewistown early on Sun-
day morning. Thompson Burtt,

of the head and face and was treated
rat the hospital before continuing his
. journey to State College. Both young
men were returning from Philadelphia
"where they attended the State—U. of
P. game on Saturday.
Quite a number of Bellefonte and
Centre county people motored to Phil-
adelphia for the game and among the
unfortunate ones was Malcolm Wetz-
ler, of Milesburg, who drove the car
| of his father, Frank L. Wetzler. A
few miles outside of the Quaker city
his car skidded on the icy road and

it to such an extent that he was una-
ble to drive it home. A number of
other drivers had narrow escapes be-
cause of the treacherous highway.

Hawk Run Woman Killed in Auto |
Accident. |
Mrs. Ann Wilson, of Hawk Run,
near Philipsburg, was killed in an au- |
to accident near State College about
11:30 o’clock last Thursday night. She |
was a member of a party who had
motored to the College to attend a
grand session of the State College
Lodge of Rebekahs, the others being
Mrs. John Morris, Mrs. Mary Mec-
Climent and Mrs. Thomas Dixon, with
Samuel Morris as driver of the car.
The meeting closed about eleven
o'clock and fifteen minutes later the
party started for home, intending to
go by way of Pennsylvania Furnace
and Warriorsmark. At the John
Strauss place, just west of the Col-
lege, Mr. Morris attempted to pass a
car going in the same direction and in
so doing the left front wheel hit a cul-
vert, throwing the car into a wire
fence. The top of the car came in
contact with a fence post and was torn
completely off. An iron rod struck
Mrs. Wilson on the head, rendering
her unconscious. Passing motorists
made a hurried trip to State College
with the injured woman but she died
before a doctor could be reached.
Mrs. John Morris was injured inter-
nally, but not seriously; Mrs. Me-
Climent was bruised and cut with
glass from the broken windshield,
while Mrs. Dixon and Mr. Morris suf-
fered from shock. All the injured
were taken home by George M.
Raines, of Philipsburg, who happened
along shortly after the accident. Mrs.
Wilson’s body was prepared for bur-
ial by undertaker Koch and sent to
her home at Hawk Run.

eight years old and was born in Eng-

Henry Manning, a naturalized Fin-
lander, committed suicide last Thurs-
day morning by shooting himself
through the heart while lying in bed
at his boarding house, near the old
office of the American Lime & Stone |
company, about 9:30 o’clock. The ex- |
act reason for the man’s rash act has
not developed but he had been melan- |
cholly for some weeks. He was 87
years and 4 months old and had beén
in this country long enough to beconie
a naturalized citizen. He worked at
the mine and roomed and boarded in
the general boarding house. So far
as known he had no immediate rela-
tives in this country but leaves a wife
and four children in Finland. The re-
mains were buried in the Treziyulny
cemetery on Sunday.
Bellefonte Kiwanis News.
At the last Tuesday noon luncheon |
of Bellefonte Kiwanis at the Bush
house forty-nine members signified
their intention of joining the drive
made to Tyrone last evening to at-
tend the anniversary meeting of the
Tyrone club. The women accompan-
ied the men.
Edward R. Owens, treasurer of the
Centre County hospital, appealed to
Kiwanis to continue their activities in
behalf of that institution and help in
making collection of the pledges made
in the big drive seven months ago, as
well as solicit additional funds for the
institution. Dr. Seibert talked on
health preservation and the attend-
ance prize was awarded to Rev. Ard.
Progress was reported in the mat-
ter of getting up a business show for
Bellefonte and arranging for a min-
strel show to be given in the future,
proceeds from which will be devoted
to the cause of the unprivileged child,
a work that has been taken up by Ki-
‘wanis all over the country.
Thousands of Bushels of Frost-Bitten
Potatoes.
From all parts of the county come
reports that potatoes have been either
nipped or actually frozen by the sud-
den drop of temperature on Sunday
night. nln
There is no way of securing a de-
pendable estimate on the number that
have been damaged by the freezing
weather, but it must be very large.
Many farmers haul their potatoes
onto their barn floors preparatory. to
sorting and screening, before placing
them in bins -for winter storage.
Rarely are they threatened with
freezing this early, consequently
the work of disposing of the potatoes
is usually left until all of the other
fall work is out of the way.
When the temperature dropped to
15 degrees on Monday and 8 degrees
on Tuesday morning barn floors were
not warm enough to save the potatoes
stored on them and the result has
been disastrous in many parts. We
talked to one farmer, on Monday
afternoon, who has no unfrozen pota-
toes left from his entire crop.

Join the American Red Cross Today.
Eight years have passed since the
wartime roll call of Americans to
the standard of their Red Cross.
They came by millions in the great-
est supporting movement the warring
legions of any nation ever witnessed.
What these millions have sacrificed
and accomplished is preserved in his-
tory.
Today, in the sixth year since the
Armistice, the call is still urgent and
the duty resting on all Americans to
back up their Red Cross in its work;
in assisting the rehabilitation of the
ex-service men and women; in meet-
ing the steadily increasing demands
caused by floods, fires, mine explo-
sions and other disasters; in public
health nursing in rural communities;
for humanitarian effort throughout
the United States and its insular pos-
sessions; and last but by no means
least in responding to international
demands upon the American Red Red
Cross throughout the world.
Join the American Red Cross; be a
participant in its noble work. It is
not merely a duty, but like our citi-
zenship is a privilege and a pleasure
to be a member of the one national
organization which is equipped and |
ready in an instant to answer the call |
of distressed humanity in every emer- |
gency.
Farm Products and Poultry.
Farmers of Centre county are look-
ing forward to the farm products and
poultry show to be held in the armory
in Bellefonte, December 5th and 6th.
Entries in farm crops are expected
to be larger this year in spite of the
short corn crop. There are a number
of fields in which show corn can be
selected but in most cases one man’s
field is as good as another’s where it
is matured. The show will be limited
to potatoes, corn, apples, wheat and
oats. The premiums in each class are
larger than last year and the effort in
bringing out exhibits will be justified.
There will be approximately $100.00
in prizes in the poultry and egg de-
partment. There are a great number
of good farm flocks in the county and
a lot of interest will be shown in this
department. :
Start to select your exhibits for the |
show now and you will stand just as
good a chance of winning prizes as |
the other fellow.
Jackson—Watson.—Abram D. Jack- |
son, son of Abram Jackson Sr., and
Miss Guinevere W. Watson, daughter
of Rev. and Mrs. William T. Watson,
both of Bellefonte, were married at
the A. M. E. church at noon on Tues-
day by the bride’s father, Rev. Wat-
son, pastor of the church. Before the
ceremony, Miss Collins, of Bradford,
sang “0, Promise Me.” Following
the ceremony a wedding dinner was
served at the bride’s home on east
Lamb street after which the young
couple left on the 1:20 p. m. train for
their home in Harrisburg, where the
bridegroom is employed.
Fire on the roof of the W.
Miles Walker residence, on east Linn
street, shortly after the noon hour on
Monday, called out the fire depart-
ment, but as the blaze had not made
much headway it was extinguished
with the chemical apparatus. The
damage was not great. A spark from a
burning flue is supposed to have been |
the origin. This was the third time in
recent years that the same house has
been on fire. Early Tuesday morning
the Undine company was called out by
a fire in a railroad freight car filled |
with ashes, on the siding at the Phoe-
nix mill. It was quickly extinguished.

Centre County Bank Case Will Not be
Reached This Week.
Although what is hoped will be the
final argument in the Centre County
bank case was listed for this week in
the Supreme court the court has been
so jammed with cases ahead of it that
the argument will probably not be
reached until some time next week.
The attorneys on both sides have
been in Washington since Sunday
waiting to be heard. The court con-
vened on Monday but all of that day's
session was taken up with reading
opinions handed down on cases dis-
posed of. When Tuesday’s session
opened it was found that there were
23 cases to be argued ahead of the
ones this community is interested in
and as sone of them were of extra-
importance they are consuming more
time than was expected.
