Extra Session Almost Certain.
One of the newspaper correspond-
ents accompanying Governor Pinchot
on his tour of inspection writes confi-
dently that an extra session of the
Legislature will be called. “State-
wide sentiment has had its influence
upon a sympathetically inclined Gov-
ernor,” he states, “and Pennsylvania's
law makers will be on Capitol Hill
next January.” The subjects to be
considered, according to the writer,
are the giant power legislation, which
failed in the last session; banking and
building and loan legislation, ballot
reform legislation and prohibition en-
forcement legislation, : in the order
named. This would indicate a rever-
sal of the Governor’s former policy
which put prohibition enforcement
first.
The banking legislation is urged by
the victims of the Bell bank failures
in Pittsburgh and the Building and
Loan association crooks in Philadel-
phia. Ballot reform legislation is
made necessary by the recent expos-
ures of ballot frauds in Philadelphia
and the other subjects are urged upon
the Governor’s mir.d by political am-
bitions. If he enters the contest for
the Republican nomination for Presi-
dent in 1928 it will be on the basis of
his record on the electoral power ques-
tion and prohibition. Both of these
subjects make large appeal to the
popular mind, and he may justly
claim that he is a valiant advocate if
not an actual pioneer in both causes.
The correspondent in question
states that the “organization poli-
ticians do not want a special session.”
Of course not. A special session
means nothing but harm to them
while it may bring a vast harvest of
advantage to Mr. Pinchot. Previous
to the recent developments the Gover-
nor was also opposed to a special ses-
sion. He had full knowledge of the
need of ballot reform legislation the
day he was inaugurated and resisted
the importunities of honest voters
during two sessions of the Legislature
to urge reforms. He knew of the
weakness of the banking laws but
gave the matter no attention until it
became plain that “taking notice”
might promote hig political ambitions.
A special session of the Legislature
will cost considerable. It is estimated
that the expense would be something
like half a million dollars. But if it
_agcomplished the needed reforms in
the banking and election laws it would
be worth the price. If it is to serve
no purpose other than promote the po-
litical interests of the Governor one-
tenth of that amount would be exor-
bitant. It might result in legislation
that would secure an honest vote at
both the primary and the general elec-
tion next year, and an honest vote
might relegate Gifford Pinchot to the
political scrap heap. But it is a cur-
ious coincidence that the Governor
became “sympathetic” only when he
imagined an honest vote would help
him.
——It would be an awful disap-
pointment to the Philadelphia machine
if General Butler were allowed to re-
main there another year.

dates running in various sections of

ty lines.

A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, The sixth annual Hallow-
een carnival and Mummer’s parade of
the Bellefonte lodge of Elks will take
place on Friday evening, October 30th,
1925; and,
Whereas, It is the desire of all par-
ticipants to properly care for the safe-
ty of the public and to make this
year’s celebration as great a success
as possible; and, : :
Whereas, To insure absolute safety
not only to participants but also to
spectators, it is necessary to limit for
a short time the movement of all cars
and the parking of same upon and
over portions of certain streets;
And therefore, by virtue of and in
conformity with the provisions of an
ordinance of the Borough of Belle-
fonte, I do hereby direct and proclaim
that the following parts of streets are
hereby declared closed to all traffic
and parking privileges on Friday, Oc-
tober 80th, 1925, between the hours of
6 and 10 o'clock, viz.: Bishop street
from Ridge to Spring; Spring street
from High to Howard; Howard street
from Spring to Allegheny; Allegheny
street from Linn to Logan, and High
street from the Diamond to the Penn-
sylvania railroad.
The parts of the streets above des-
ignated must be kept clear in order
that all people may have uninterrupt-
ed enjoyment and the children’s safe-
ty guaranteed.

Sarah Hazel and was born at Madi-
sonburg a little over fifty years ago.
She was twice married, her first hus-
band having been Luther Hosterman,
who died in Brush valley twenty-nine
years ago. Two children survive as
the result of this union, Mrs. Lulu
Hosterman, of Coburn, and Miss Es-
tella, of Centre Hall. Following the
death of her first husband she mar-
ried Robert W. Smith, of Centre Hall,
who survives with the following chil-
dren: Sarah, Marie, Gladys and Ro-
berta. She also leaves her mother

Kling, of State College; William, of
Bellevue, Ohio; Byron W. and Edwin
J., of Youngstown, Ohio; Mrs. Sarah

HARRIS Fedak Harris, a well
known resident of Halfmoon township,
was found dead in bed on Tuesday
morning, a heart attack evidently be-

63 years of age and is survived by his
wife, who before her marriage was a
Miss Switzer, and three children, Or-
vis, Stella and Agnes, all at home.
The funeral will be held today.

Bellefonte Council Passes License Or-
dinance Over Burgess’ Veto.
After being before Bellefonte bor-
ough council for six months and buf-
feted back and forth between the bur-
gess and borough solicitor the ordi-
nance framed and introduced last
April providing for the payment of a
license by all theatres, movie shows,
carnivals, circuses, street vendors,
etc., save those conducted for educa-
tional, religious or charitable purpos-
es, was passed finally over the bur-
gess’ veto on Monday evening. Six
members of council were present and
all voted aye. The ordinance was
originally passed last May and was
vetoed by burgess W. Harrison Walk-
er. It was then referred to borough
solicitor N. B. Spangler who took
exception to the reasons given
by the burgess for his veto,
stating they were without foun-
dation, but because of his objection to
one section it was more fully exempli-
fied by the insertion of the word “ed-
ucational.” The ordinance was then
repassed by council and submitted to
burgess Walker who again vetoed it, '
and the result was the passing of it
over the second veto on Monday, even-
ing. The ordinance ‘will become ef-
fective as soon as itis: published and

The present “African Methodist
Episcopal Church” in Bellefonte grew ,
out of a controversy that two groups
of colored people had away back in
1853. One society was known as
“Wesleyan,” the other “Bethelites.”
. They had been worshipping together
in a building located on east Logan
street and couldn’t agree as to form,

i ~ With this in mind we want to call
your attention to a series of short ar-
ticles which is begun in this issue.
They have been written for the
“Watchman” by Mary A. Willcox, Ph.
D., professor emeritus of Wellesley
College, and to our mind constitute
the most concise and informative
statement of a subject in which every
one should be interested, that we have
read.
i Walter Bagehot, the English essay-
ist, used to talk of the many things
“we know when we aren’t asked about
“them. The World Court is for most of
us one of those things. We all know
“its name but most of us know little
more.
President Coolidge like President
Harding urges the United States to
‘ join the Court with the Hughes reser-
vations. The question will be discus-
sed in the Senate next December.
, Everybody wants to know what the
Court is, what is the need for it, what
are the Hughes reservations and what
are the objections, if any, to our join-
ing it.

that the borough manager had collect-
ed $55.53 on the 1928 water duplicate
and $747.02 on the 1924 duplicate.
The committee reported progress in
the matter of putting down new water

“Old Ironsides” Week.
The national organization of the
Benevolent Protective Order of Elks
has inaugurated a movement, to raise
a fund for the reclaiming of “Old.
Ironsides,” the old continental ship’
which has been allowed to rot at her’
ways. The idea is to have the school
children contribute a penny each, and
adults as much as they feel like doing,
toward the fund. The local lodge of
Elks has designated next week as
“Old Ironsides” week and they are
anxious for as liberal a response as
possible.

bedrooms can be fixed up to be used

Robert R. Voris is Dead.
Though he had been gone from
Bellefonte for many years we are sure
that there are a number of residents
who remember and will share in our
regret at the announcement that
“Bob” Voris died at his home in
Bloomsburg on September 25th.
He had been eastern sales manager
for the American Horse Shoe Co., and
in that capacity visited Bellefonte
once or twice a year, more, we often
thought for the pleasure of getting
back to familiar scenes than for actu-
al business.
In the nineties Mr. Voris was the
blacksmith who conducted what is fa-
miliarly known as the Mallory shop in
this place. He was one of the town’s
best known and most liked men and
the possessor of a great, rich bass
voice that just wasn’t content unless it
could be expressing in song the soul
of one who was surging with life and
good will, always.

Contractor Benjamin Bradley Off for
Florida Today.
Contractor Benjamin Bradley, of
Bellefonte, will leave today for Flori-
da where he will likely spend the win-
ter and possibly stay there indefinite-
ly. He is going at the solicitation of
a number of business and professional
men of Bradford, who own twenty-
seven lots at Winter Haven, two hun-
dred miles north of Miami. They are
going down today to consider the
question of a big building program
and are taking Mr. Bradley along as
the contractor in charge of the work
they decide to do. The latter will be
assisted by his brother, Robert Brad-
ley, who is also going down today.
Winter Haven is not one of the
mushroom towns of that State, as it
is already a good-sized city and has a
regular clientelle of northern people
who crowd it every winter. In fact it
is the demand for more houses that
has induced the Bradford land-owners
to consider a building proposition at
this time. The extent of their under-
taking will likely have something to
do with the length of Mr. Bradley’s
stay in the south.
