A splendid program has been ar-
ranged, including conferences of the
various departments of Sunday school |
work. These meetings have always
proved to be of special interest to the
workers and an inspiration to all
those interested in any way in the
Sunday schools of our county.
Two of the speakers who will be
heard at the convention are Miss
Esther I. Williams, assistant superin-
tendent of the young people’s division
of the State, and Prof. M. Haddon
Fisher, director of religious education.
This will probably be the last oppor-
tunity to hear Prof. Fisher in the Sun-
day school work as he has accepted
the chair in religious education in
Gettysburg University.
The sessions on Tuesday will be
held in the morning, afternoon and
evening, and on Wednesday in the
morning. :
Wednesday afternoon there will be
a special session for the district work-
ers. Try to arrange your affairs now
so that you can attend. A social fea-
ture of the convention will be a ban-

Two Slight Accidents at Whiterock
Quarries.
While working in the hydrating
building at Whiterock, on Saturday,
Charles Shreffler of Pleasant Gap
met with quite a painful though not.
serious accident. The hoist fell, some
of the chains striking him on the head
and shoulders causing lacerations and
bruises.
The same day Carl Zettle, a son of
Samuel Zettle, who has some horses
contracting at Whiterock, begged to”
be allowed to drive one of them for.
just a day. His wish was granted,
but the boy paid dearly for-it. He
got his foot under a car wheel and
his little toe was cut clean off and
the others on the foot badly mangled.
- Two weeks ago Whiterock installed
two Plymouth gasoline motors to re-
place the steam dinkeys destroyed in
the recent fire there. They were more
or less experimental, but have demon-
strated that they can haul thirty-five
loaded cars at a trip from the quar-
ries to the kilns and crushers and do
by the old equipment.

Musser—Ishler—A very quiet wed-
ding took place at the home of Mrs.
Mollie Ishler, at State College, at sev-
en o'clock on Wednesday evening,
when her daughter, Miss Nellie Ishler,
was united in marriage to Malcolm !
Musser, youngest son of the late Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Musser, of near Belie-
fonte. Only a few intimate friends
of the bride and the bridegroom’s
brother, George Musser, and wife, of
New York State, were present at the
ceremony. Following a short wedding
trip by automobile the young couple
will reside at the well known Musser
farm, just south of Bellefonte.

——A dispatch from Harrisburg
says “The Nittany Valley railroad
company has been cited into the Dau-
phin county court to show cause why
it should not be abolished. The cor-
poration has not operated its line in
Centre county for some time, accord-
ing to the Attorney General, who asks |
that its charter be annulled.” While
the authorities at Hairisburg may not
know it the Nittany Valley railroad
has been abolished for so many years
that it is among the realms of almost
forgotten industries. And so far as
the company is concerned about the
only person connected with it that we
can recall now is the general manager
and superintendent, Mitchell I. Gard-
ner, of Clearfield. And he is not likely
to make any protest against the an-
nulment of the charter by the Attor-
ney General or any one else.

an opinion of Attorney General Wood-

question as to the constitutionality of

Included among the vetoes was the
Alexander bill appropriating $40,000
for construction of a new reservoir at
Rockview. The veto was based on the
ground that while it would eventually
be necessary it was not essential this
next biennium and that it was not con-
templated by the budget submitted.
A bill appropriating $7,500 to the
Philipsburg State hospital for equip-
ment and repairs was disapproved be-
cause the item was not submitted to
the Department of Welfare as of the
institution’s budget.

Church Robbed at Penn Hall.
When the congregation of Salem
Reformed church below Penn Hall
gathered there for worship Sunday
morning they were astounded to dis-
cover that some one had broken into
the building and hauled away the car-
pet, three choir chairs, the radio lamp
used by the choir and the keys to the
Sunday school room.
The thief or thieves didn't stop to
remove the tacks, but ripped the car-
pet from the aisles, around the chan-
cel and tore it away from the spots
covered bythe stoves. It will require
more than 100 yards of new carpet to
replace it and as it costs $1.45 per
yard the loss to the church is a serious
one.

prize offerd for the division securing
the most members for its own Y. M.

College, on Monday night of last
week, auto burglars broke into a
clothing store in Juniata on Wednes-
day night of last week and carted
away two thousand dollars’ worth of
men’s clothing. Two automobiles
were used and a big hole was made in
the store’s stock of goods. A tenant
above the store saw the men but they
worked so openly that he thought it
was the proprietors. On Friday night
a men’s clothing store in Huntingdon
was robbed of $300 worth of goods.

High Relay Team Broke Interscholas.-
tic Record.
‘State College.
Hecla
at State. College.
Coach Stock’s relay team brought
more laurels to the local High school
last Saturday. They not only won the
Penn State scholastic relay race from
a large field of contestants but broke
the interscholastic record by 4 3-5
seconds. The old record was 3 min-
utes and 37 seconds and held by Dick-
inson Seminary, of Williamsport. The
Bellefonte High school boys ran the
mile last Saturday in 8 minutes and
32 % seconds. :
The team did not have to put forth
its best efforts to win as not one of
the four boys was pushed to win his:
quarter. Emil was timed at 51 %
for his quarter which is very fast
time for the high school runners.
Waite running second for Bellefonte
showed much improvement over his
former races this year. The same
can be said of McCullough and Shope.
Shope won second place in the 100
yard dash, proving that he was the
fastest High school boy in the meet,
as he was beaten by a Potomatic State:
Normal student. The 100 yards was
covered in 10 1-5 seconds.
The record made by the relay team
is likely to stand for some time ac-
cording to the statement made by
coach Cartmell, of State College.
Franklin & Marshall Academy
finished second, Juniata High school
third and Dickinson Seminary fourth.
The two big steam pumps
which for upward of half a century
have pumped the water from Belle-
fonte’s big spring into the water
mains and reservoir to supply the
town, have been scrapped, not because
they were worn out but for the reason
that they have been declared anti-
quated and out-of-date. The place:
they have so long occupied in the old
pump house will be reconstructed as:
a foundation for the new electric
centrifugal pump which has been
ordered to take the place of the old
| pumps.
——“The Philips,” the leading ho-
tel in Philipsburg, has been taken
over by the American Hotels compa-
ny, a subsidiary of the United Hotels:
company, the change taking place the
fore part of this week. The new man-
agement anticipates brightening up
the hotel in various ways and putting
it on a par with all the hotels under
its direction.
