CLARK.—Mrs. ‘Annie G.
widow of George Clark, passed away
on Friday morning at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Charles Hartsock, at
Matternville, as the result of general
debility, aged 92 years.
Her maiden name was Annie Osmer
and practically her entire life was
spent in Centre county, her girlhood
in College township and all her mar-
ried life in Buffalo Run valley. She
was a member of the United Brethren
church at Paradise and a devout chris-
tian woman. Her husband died fifteen
years ago but surviving her are ten

A Suggestion to Creditors of the Centre County Bank. -
On Monday, May 25th, nearly three. weeks ago, the Supreme .court
of the United States handed down its opinion in the Centre County
bank case.
The effect of the ruling, so far as hope to depositors of
getting any of their funds was concerned, was to place them in almost
the same position in which they found themselves when the institution
closed its doors May 13, 1922.
We are not advised as to what steps are to be taken now. The
committee selected by the creditors to represent them has not met, so
that it seems reasonable to infer
procedure at the moment.
that there are no definite plans of
To us the most striking phase of the misfortune that befell when
the Centre County bank closed has been the utter dearth of construc-
tive suggestion, either during the three years preceding the ruling or
during the three weeks that have elapsed since it was handed down.
It seems that some thought, some
plan, might have been offered that
would point the way to a more satisfactory settlement of the whole
affair than interminable, needless and costly litigation.
We believe
such a plan could and would have been forthcoming had not the pe-
culiar involvement of the situation deterred several whose interests

Their real interest lies not in recriminations for what has becn

The time

own personal interests and unbiased and uninfluenced by the interested
and timorous motives of others.

afternoon of this week at the Pres-

After one of the most successful
years in the history of the institution
the Bellefonte Academy closed its
school year last Friday, and the last

proved an incentive to the students in
their scholastic work. The prizes and
the winners are as follows:

fonte.
The Dr. W. J. Copeland prizes, consist-
ing of two prizes of $10 each for excellence

THE NOSE.
Let other bards their tribute pay
To blue eyes, gray eyes, hazel eyes, brown
eyes, black eyes,
And the love-light, lustre, gleam and fire in
them;
Or descant on rosy cheeks,
Juscious and cherry-ripe lips
And the perfect pearls in the mouth—
I sing the nose!
Mine be this delicate and forbidding theme
Shied at by other poets and poetasters.
Scorn not the nose!
By that foremost feature—
Gesichtsvorsprung the Germans call it—
Napoleon chose his generals,
For it is in truth a surer index of charac-
ter
Than the changing and deceptive eyes.
O the multitudinous noses
Adhering to the millions of faces on earth!
The varying shapes and hues—no two
alike:
Greek, Roman, Irish, Negro noses:
Straight, bridged, hooked, retrousse,
Bulbous, bibulous, squat and flat,
Some too large and some too small, °
And the inconsequential neutral nose
Which makes no impression on anybody.
But these are not my theme.
I know a nose
Different from any of them
And superior to them all.
You cannot classify it:
It is a type by itself—Sui generis.
Measure it—describe it—
Photograph it, if you will,
It transcends all your efforts
To do it justice.
A micrometer cannot detect the slightest
inconsistency;
A Michael Angelo would go into raptures
over it.
I have called it
A nixie, elfish, impish nose,
Saucily amiable,
Captivatingly audacious,
Enchantingly defiant,
Bewitchingly wilful,
Fascinatingly fearless—
And so on and so on
Through all the gamut of the lexicon;
But all the words in the language
Fail to exactly express the truth.
In fine, it is her nose,
And if any man or semblance of man
Casts any aspersions on it
Or denies that it is the most charming
And only perfect nose in the universe,
By the jumping Jehosaphat
I shall arise and slay him!

——The Curtis Publishing compa-
ny, of Philadelphia, having absorbed
the North American, is now reaching
out and cornering the paper supply.
For some time past they have been
heavy stock-holders in the Castanea
Paper Co., at Lock Haven, and the
New York and Pennsylvania company,
operating mills at Lock Haven and
Champlain, N. Y. Now they have ac-
quired a controlling interest in the pa-
per mills at Johnsonburg, and the
product of all the above mills will be
used by the Curtis people in the pub-
lication of their various periodicals,

engaged in the mercantile business
and for many years his store was the
leading cne in that thriving little vil-
lage. Some years ago he sold out to
the Stere brothers and when his
health became impaired went to Flor- |.
ida to make his home.
On April 21st, 1875, he married
Miss Martha C. Russell who survives
with one daughter, Mrs. Robert Lov-
ering Mudgett, of Coronado Beach,
Fla. The remains were brought north
and taken to Unionville on Tuesday
evening and funeral services held at
two o'clock yesterday afternoon by
Rev. Charles L. Baldwin. Burial was
made in the Unionville cemetery.

NEFF.—Miss May E. Neff died on
Tuesday morning at the home of her
mother, Mrs. James Neff, on east
Bishop street, as the result of tuber-
cular empyema of the left lung, her
death being hastened no doubt by in-
juries she sustained in an automobile
accident on the night of May 22nd. It
will be recalled that on the night in
question Paul Weaver, Roy Shaffer,
Miss Neff and Mitzi Bodenshoff mo-
tored to Hecla park to attend a dance.
Returning home Weaver, the driver
of the car, ran into a telephone pole
at, the intersection of the road from
the park with the state highway. The
four young people were ‘injured but
Miss Neff’s injuries were not believed
serious until the past ten days, and at
her request she was removed from the
Centre County hospital to her moth-
er’s home.
She was 20 years, 7 months and 2
days old. Her father is dead but her
mother survives. Burial was made at
Zion yesterday.

BRANNEN.—Mrs., Ella Brannen,
wife of William Brannen, died at her
home in Altoona on Tuesday, follow-
ing several month’s illness. Her
maiden name was Ella Pennington,
and she was born at State College on
February 14th, 1859, hence was in her
sixty-seventh year. Surviving her are
her husband and the following broth-
ers and sisters: Harry R. and James
E. Pennington, of Altoona; Clayton
E., of South Altoona; Mrs. Kate
Daugherty and Mrs. Sallie Beck, of
State College; Mrs. Eva Furst and
Miss Mary Pennington, of Buffalo
Run. Mrs. Brannen was a member of
Grace Methodist church, Altoona, and
her pastor will have charge of the fu-
neral services which will be held at
two o’clock this afternoon, burial to
be made in the Rose Hill cemetery,
Altoona.

BRILL.—Rev. William W. Brill, a
superannuated Methodist minister
who has lately been on the teaching
staff of the Bloomsburg State Nor-
mal school, died in the Bloomsburg
hospital, on Monday, following an ill-
ness of one week. He was seventy
years old and was quite well known
by a number of Bellefonte people. He
married a Miss McMurray, of Belle-
fonte, who survives with two sons and
one daughter. He also leaves two
brothers and one sister. The remains
were brought to Bellefonte on the
Lewisburg train yesterday morning
and taken direct to the Union ceme-
tery for burial.
—Contractor W. S. Williams is
sure making the dirt fly in his work
of demolishing the old Wilson prop-
erty and preparing the foundation for
the erection of the new Richelieu the-
atre on High street. A force of thir-
ty or more men are on the job and
this number will likely be increased,
as Mr. Williams’ contract calls for the
completion of the building within
three months and he is to get a bonus
of fifty dollars a day for every day
less than that time that he turns over
the structure completed.

one for their benefit and, at least,
It will be criticized, of course. It
will be laughed at by some. Others will say it can’t be done and still
others, from under cover, will douse it with cold water.
Each group
of doubters will have a motive and the motive is certainly not to the
best interest of the creditors of the Centre County bank.
The Centre County bank always was a useful institution in Belle-
fonte. It is doing it scarcely full justice to say that it did as much for
the industry and business of the town as any other financial institution
in it. Why not revive it?
The creditors, themselves, can. reopen its
doors, make it their depository, their trustee and in a very few years
put it well on the way of paying back to them every cent of the loss
that now is certain.
Of course there are those who will advise that it can’t be done.
They represent two types:
One, that doesn’t want it to be done and
another without enough constructive energy to undertake it.
We have before us the plans which George H. Earle Jr., used when
he revived the Real Estate Trust Co., of Philadelphia. When it failed
creditors were offered five cents on the dollar for their deposits.
Mr.
Earle stepped into the breach, pointed a way out and the creditors re-
organized the bank with his aid. We happened, later, to be made ex-
ecutor of one of them who had joined in the reorganization plan so that
we know that in seventeen years he not only recoured all of his losses,
but made a handsome profit beside.
The story of the Real Estate Trust Co., is not an exceptional one.
Many other banks in Pennsylvania have failed since then, re-opened
their doors and made good to those who stuck to them. :
The recuperative power of a banking institution is amazing. Of
course all of the creditors of the Centre County bank wouldn’t and
couldn’t go into it, but think of.what an institution several hundred of
them could make if they set themselves to the work of working a bit
for themselves by restoration of good will to the institution.
Why should not the Centre County bank be re-opened by its cred-
itors?
They could do it without liability for a cent more than they
have in it at present. Or if they don’t want to re-open it themselves it
is not beyond the range of possibility that others would do it for them,
give them the opportunity of going in or letting it alone and also of
becoming their trustee to work out the assets of the old institution to
the best advantage of all of them and at the least possible cost.
We have made this suggestion merely with the hope that it may
crystalize thought on some plan that will get the creditors some-
where, give them an opportunity to get in control of their funds as
soon as by any other method they may employ, and offer them the
hope of recouping the losses they
termine to work for themselves.

Trial Flights West Will Soon be
Made.
The new aviation field is now the
favorite night-time attraction for res-
idents of Bellefonte and the surround-
ing community. Hundreds of people
motor there almost every evening: to
see the planes come in and depart.
Practically all the pilots have made
the flights from New York to Belle-
fonte and return and none of them
have experienced any difficulty in fol-
lowing the trail or making night land-
ings. Within the next week or ten
days the beacon lights will be all up
between Bellefonte and Cleveland,
and the new field at the latter city
equipped with lighting arrangements
similar to the Bellefonte field, and
then test flights will be made between |
Bellefonte and Cleveland.
One of the pilots who flew to Belle-
fonte on Sunday night had a rather
thrilling experience on his return trip.
He was flying along in the vicinity of
Sunbury when a large dark object
suddenly loomed in view ahead of him.
Grabbing his controls he quickly veer-
ed to one side and then made the dis-
covery that the “big object” in the air
was the Los Angeles on its return trip
from Cleveland.
Work at the Hospital Making satis-
factory Progress.
The walls of the addition to the
Centre County hospital are completed
to the square and within a very short
time the structure will be under roof.
The work has progressed to the
point where plumbing and sewage 'in-
stallations ean be undertaken. At the
meeting Tuesday evening the contract
was made for a new electric elevator.
There is an opening for several
young ladies in the training school for
nurses at the hospital.

Curb Market to Open Tomorrow.
The curb market is to be opened at
7 o'clock tomorrow morning on the
Diamond. For years Bellefonte has
been without direct touch with the
growers of garden truck in this viein-
are certain to bear unless they de-
ity and the attempt to revive the old
curb market is largely experimental.
Of course it will take several weeks
to discover whether enough producers
will appear and, enough customers
also, to make it mutually desirable to !
continue the market.
! Valotta Granted Another Respite.
i Joseph Valotta, convicted and sen-
tenced to death in Allegheny county
for the murder of policemen Edward
C. Couch and Thomas Hopkins, has
: been granted another respite from the
. death chair, this time from the week
"of June 29th to that of January 11th,
1926. This is the ninth respite
granted Valotta and the length of the
stay was made necessary because his
case is now pending before the United
States Supreme court, which adjourn-
ed on Monday until October. Valotta
was brought to Rockview last sum-
mer but was saved from electrocution
only a few hours before he was to
have been taken to the death chair.
His case was carried to the federal
district court which decided in his fa-
vor on a question of constitutionality
of rights and from this decision the
State and county appealed to the
United States Supreme court.
Christian Endeavorers Hold Conven-
tion at State College.
The 28th annual convention of the

elected as follows: President, Frank
Andrew Nordbury, Philipsburg; cor-
responding secretary, Mrs. Nevin E.

delegates present at the convention,
and Centre Hall was selected as the
place for holding the 1926 convention.

every day large shipments of chicks

thousand chicks a week. As the sea-
son runs from ten to twelve weeks it
means upward of a million chicks a
season.

It might be interesting to note that
eight of the prize winners were mem-
bers of last fall’s football team, which
refutes the general impression that
football players are not good stu-
dents; and it was a prize winning
team, at that, as they did not lose a
game and were not scored on during
the entire season, their record being
456 points scored to nothing against
them. The baseball team this spring
won all of its twelve games played.
Patrons of the Academy will be
pleased to learn that all of the teach-
