Country Correspondence
Items of Interest Dished Up for the
Delectation of “Watchman” Read-
ers by a Corps of Gifted
Correspondents.
PLEASANT GAP.
Miss Mary Hile spent the week-end
in Williamsport.
H. H. Lohman and family are vis-
iting old-time friends at Berwick.
Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Corman, of
Lock Haven, were over Sunday visit-
ors at the home of H. E. McClincy.
Miss Catherine Wion, of Bellefonte,
was a brief visitor recently at the
home of her sister, Mrs. Ward Show-
ers.
Miss Jean Noll, a nurse in training
in Philadelphia, came home for the
funeral of her uncle, the late Boyd A.
Noll.
Mr. and Mrs. Paul Keller, of Phil-
adelphia, were over Sunday visitors
here, coming for a last look at their
deceased uncle, the late Boyd A. Noll,
of Zion. Miss Emeline Noll also
came up from Philadelphia owing to
her uncle’s death.
While coasting, on Wednesday ev-
ening, John Barnes Jr., met with a
painful accident. In collision with
another sled he was thrown and sus-
tained a fractured jawbone. He is
receiving proper attention at the Cen-
tre County hospital.
Some of our progressive citizens
are awakening to the fact that it
would be a wonderful improvement
to have Main street from Noll’s store
to the cross roads illuminated with
electric lights. There is no doubt
but that it would be grand and add
materially to the comfort of our pe-
destrians as well as make the outside
world take notice of our progressive-
ness. When the state road was com-
pleted the improvement added, almost
instantaneously, an increase of twen-
five per cent. in real estate values.
The lighting process would no doubt
mean another increase, and particu-
larly since Whiterock is moving on
the upward grade and prospects for
an increase in activity at Rockview
penitentiary are very good. It is an
undeniable fact that more properties
were sold here during the past year
than has changed hands in a decade.
Keep the ball a rolling. From per-
sonal observations we find no objec-
tions to the lighting movement, and
the quicker the deal is consummated
the better it will be for all concerned.
Everybody about the Gap was
shocked to learn of the sudden death
of that genial friend, Boyd Allen Noll.
He was a man of sterling worth and
of him it can be safely said that he
had fewer enemies than any man in
Centre county. He was for many
years a consistent member of the Re-
formed church and died in the faith
he so well lived. Mr. Noll practiced
charity to a much greater extent than
generally known. He was modest and
unpretentious. It was a source of
gratification to the writer, and must
be to the reader, to know that he
always took sides with the oppressed.
He always stood with the weaker
side, that being nearest to God and
humanity. He never heard of a case
of human suffering without a deep
feeling of sympathy. He frequently
suffered personal inconvenience, sac-
rificed his ease and comfort to give
of his time and money to aid the
needy. If his good acts were not
always placed with the best of dis-
crimination, his errors were on the
side of charity. We have all lost a
good friend, hence it is that the Gap
is in mourning.
JACKSONVILLE
Miss Adella Garbrick is spending a
short time among friends here.
Ray Deitz, of Lock Haven, is home
on a short vacation, visiting among
friends here.
Miss Kathryn Swope was a caller
at the E. E. Vonada home on Sat-
urday evening.
Mr. and Mrs. John Beck, of Lock
Haven, were Sunday visitors at the
C. N. Yearick homee.
Sunday visitors at the Mrs. Elia
Deitz home were Mrs. William
Thompson, Ruth and Viola Thompson
and the twin babies.
The revival meeting in the Evan-
gelical church came to a close on
Thursday evening after a successful
two weeks campaign.
Many of our folks attended the ban-
quet given by the I. O. O. F. at How-
ard, last Wednesday eevening, and ali
report having had a fine time.
The Conrad Miller lime kiln was
put in full blast on Monday morning,

“When is a man or woman old?”
One man answers that question this
way: “You are old, whatever rour
age, when you automatically reject a
pew idea with ‘I don’t believe it!” You
are old when the happiness of others
no longer Interests or gives you
pleasure, when life looks gray, when
you lose confidence in human nature.”
Concrete is old when it is hard and
set, and it is the same with the brain

PENN STATE STATION
DEVELOPS NEW OATS.
Two new oats varieties, Keystone
and Patterson, promise to be the best
Pennsylvania grain growers have yet
had, if yields to date are any indica-
tions of their abilities. Both varieties
were developed at The Pennsylvania
State College expriment station
where they have averaged for the
past ten years nearly ten bushels per
acre more than Sixty-Day, an early
variety, according to C. F. Noll, ex-
perimental agronomist of the station.
These two varieties have been
known in the past as 53-11 and 63-11.
The former has now been named
Keystone for the State where it orig-
inated and the other is called Patter-
son in honor of the late William Pat-
terson, superintendent of the College
farms for many years.
In many other parts of the State
these varieties have been grown in
demonstration plots for several years
with very satisfactory yields. Approx-
imately eleven hundred acres of the
two varieties were grown last year, so
five or six thousand bushels of seed
will be available for distribution. The
demand was greater than the supply
last spring, Noll reports.
The two varieties are almost alike
in height, in type of grain and in
yielding capacity, but Keystone is
about two days earlier than Patter-
son. The grains are yellow and rath-
er small. They have a thin hull and
the percentage of kernel in the grain
is usually higher than in the larger
grained varieties.
“These oats are best adapted to
those sections of Pennsylvania where
early oats do best” says Noll. “There
they have proved much superior to
Sixty Day or Kherson, the most com-
monly grown variety.”

All Run Down?
This Bellefonte Resident Tells You
How to Get Well.
Tired all the time?
Lame, stiff and achy?
Tortured with nagging backache
Knife-like twinges when you stoop
or lift?
Miserable with headaches, dizzy
spells and bladder irregularities?
All are signs of kidney sickness!
Use Doan’s Pills—a stimulant diu-
retic to the kidneys.
Here’s Bellefonte testimony.
Mrs. E. E. Ardery, Reynolds Ave.,
says: “My kidneys were weak and
out of order and my back ached. I
became run down, too. Doan’s Pills
from Runkle’s drug store have always
relieved these attacks and strengthen-
ed my back and kidneys.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same that Mrs. Ar-
dery had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs.,
