The fact that many of them comment upon the splendid tone of the new pipe organ also shows that they have a discriminating ear for music. *7 the pictures shown at the Scenic good ones and it is only the regu- s who see them all. The “Watchman” is the only paper in Centre county to publish the complete returns of Tuesday’s elec- -tion, not only on the State and county tickets but for every one of the sixty- four districts in the county. This is in line with the “Watchman’s” policy at all times, to give the news when it is news, because the publishers realize that the voters in every district in the county are just as much interested in who their local officers will be as in who were elected to fill the county of- fices. ———The “oldest inhabitant” can scarcely remember a thirtieth of Oc- tober when snow fell from morning until night, as it did last Friday. Of scourse most of it in Bellefonte melted during the day so that at no time was ‘there more than two inches or there- abouts on the ground, but out on the mountains the snow was from four to five inches in depth. And that was the last Friday in the month and ac- cording to that old saw the weather «of that day will rule that of the fol- lowing month, but let us all hope that this will not be the case this time. Two deer were brought into Eckel’s meat market on Saturday, one a two point buck shot over in Georges valley and abandoned by the hunter, and a small doe which ran into a wire fence up near Port Matilda and broke its leg. Game wardens brought both carcasses to Bellefonte and after be- ing skinned and dressed the meat was sent to the Centre County hospital. On Monday another big two point buck was brought in from Dix Run. It was one of four deer that jumped from a high bank down onto the road, the buck falling and breaking its neck. ——FEdward Hepburn’s Chevrolet runabout was badly damaged, shortly after six o’clock last Friday night, when it was run into by a Ford tour- ing car driven by Edward King, of Valley View, on High street just above the bridge. Mr. Hepburn had driven up north Water street and was just making the turn to go up High street. He was watching a car on his right which was crossing the bridge and also headed up the street. King was on his way down High and at- tempted to run between Hepburn’s car and the one going up street with the result that he ran into the Hepburn car, tore off the right front wheel and mud guard, damaged the radiator, bent the radius rod, ete. “He was un- able to stop his car until it ran onto the bridge and bumped into another car. The only fortunate thing is that nobody was hurt. ELK’S HALLOW-EEN CARNIVAL MARRED BY WINTRY WEATHER. Parade Not Nearly as Big as in Former Years. streets, the result of an all day’s snow- fall, last Friday, had a depressing ef- fect on the Elk’s Hallow-een carnival held in Bellefonte that evening. In fact interest in the carnival was at no time on a par with that of former years. The Harvest Queen contest did not become really exciting until the last two or three days. Only three young ladies contested for the honor, Mary Thompson, Eloise Zimmerman and Christine Weaver. When the final vote was counted last Thursday even- ing it showed Miss Thompson a win- ner with almost fourteen thousand votes. The total vote cast was over forty thousand. As the winner of the contest: Miss Thompson was awarded a handsome diamond ring and had the honor of riding in the parade dressed as a queen is supposed to be. In the parade, on Friday evening were the Bellefonte lodge of Elks, Wetzler’s band, of Milesburg, the Harvest Queen, I. 0. O. F. band, the Mummers, Lemont band, the Logan fire company apparatus, etc. The Mummers were not nearly so plenti- ful this year as last, caused no doubt by the bad weather. Among the fea- tures were three dogs, one labelled Keller, one Walker and one Dale, while the owners carried a placard bearing the question, “Which do you want for Judge?” “King winter and his court” was portrayed by six young ladies, Mrs. Ogden B. Malin, as the king, Miss Mary Shelton, Miss Wini- fred Gates, Mrs. R. C. Blaney, Miss Nina Lamb, and Miss Anna Straub. Of course there were numerous other representations of interesting characters but it was impossible to get a line on all of them. While the carnival did not prove the money maker this year that it has in former years, it was not a loser for the Elks. In fact they anticipate clearing about three hundred dollars. Following is a complete list of the prizes and winners: LIST OF PRIZES. Best decorated float, $15.00, Elks Awarded to Logan Fire Co. Second best decorated float, $10.00, Elks club.

The woods and the fields were full of hunters on Monday, the opening day of the hunting season, and the big majority were disappointed with the luck that attended their efforts to bag a creditable showing of game. In fact the only kind of game that seemed plentiful was rabbits. Some hunters got their limit of five, but they were the exception. Others got two and three but the most of them returned home empty-handed. Squir- rel, pheasants and wild turkeys are either very scarce or kept well under cover as very few of either were kill- ed. Squirrel have not been plentiful in Centre county for a dozen years but it is only the past two or three years that the decline of the pheasant has been so pronounced, and hunters are naturally at a loss to account for it. Wild turkeys have never been very numerous, being found only in certain spots in the woodlands of the county, and they are a hard bird to shoot un- der any and all circumstances. Borough Dads Make Briefness. The borough dads established a rec- ord for briefness on Monday night. Six members were present at a regu- lar meeting and they were in session less than fifteen minutes. There were no verbal nor written communications. The Street committee had nothing of importance to report. The Water committee reported digging ditch for new pipe on Halfmoon hill, two new connections made, $464.50 collected on 1924 water duplicate, and that the im- provements at the big spring will probably be completed between the 10th and 20th of the month. The Fi- nance committee asked for the renew- al of two notes totaling $25,000, and there being no other business bills amounting to $4148.67 were approved for payment after which council ad- journed.

Miss Helen MacDonald, the dental hygienist employed in our schools for four months last year and who has just completed two months’ work here this year gives the following gratify- ing report: “The work of the dental hygienist began early in the school year with the pupils of the first and second grades in the Allegheny street school. The next patients to be treated were the pupils of the first, second, third and fourth grades at the Bishop street school, then third grade at the Alle- gheny street school. According to actual records kept by the hygienist, there is a marked im- provement in the general mouth health condition of the children that were given a prophylaxis last year, and came in again this year as patients; also a greater number of children re- sponded this year with mo timidity being shown by them at any time. This point may be verified by using the second grade of the Bishop street school as an example: Last year the enrollment of girls from this grade were 20, the patients totalling 6; this year the enrollment of girls is 14 and the patients numbered 14. There were 18 boys enrolled and all had a prophylaxis. Miss Mame Woods is the teacher in this grade and her co- operation was splendid. The improved condition of the chil- dren’s teeth may be shown by the pu- pils of the fourth grade, Bishop street school. Last year there were 28 pa- tients to be treated from that grade and only one had clean teeth; this year, with a total of 32 patients, 18 had clean teeth. Before the child is treated his mouth is thoroughly examined to find the condition of his teeth as to clean- liness, to note if fistulas are present, how often he brushes his teeth, num- ber of cavities, and condition of the gum tissue—healthy or otherwise. All this is checked off plainly on a chart and given the child to show his par- ents. In this way the parent becomes acquainted with the child’s dental de- ficiencies and may have them reme- died. The six year molar, when decayed, is always very plainly shown and the hygienist adds a few words to stress the vital importance of this tooth in order that the proper care and imme- diate visit to a dentist be assured. An added feature this year was tooth brush drills which were given to all the grades. This was necessary, as frequently the children insisted that they had brushed their teeth when, upon examination, their teeth looked otherwise. Therefore, to al- lay all suspicion the children were taught how to brush their teeth and responded very well. The number of children given a prophylaxis this year totals 231. Last year the patients from the same num- ber of grades totaled 190. The idea of having a dental clinic is being considered by the dentists and it would be a tremendous help. Miss MacDonald went to State Col- lege last Saturday to work two months under the tuberculosis com- mittee and expects to be in the schools of Lemont, Boalsburg and State Col- lege. She will return in the spring to fill out the remainder of the time allotted to Bellefonte. ——Mark Twain, Buffalo Bill and Brigham Young live again in “The Pony Express.” Scenic theatre, next Tuesday and Wednesday. 44-1% Alumni Homecoming and Football at State Tomorrow. Tomorrow will be the annual alum- ni homecoming day at State College and also the biggest football game of the season on Beaver field. From all indications a large number of the old grads will be back. Every available room in the hotels in Bellefonte has been engaged for the week-end, and hundreds will motor to the College to- morrow. State’s opponents on the gridiron will be the strong Notre Dame eleven, from South Bend, Ind. It is one of the best teams in the coun- try today and the scrap at the College tomorrow will be one worth seeing. To date State has suffered two de- feats, Georgia Tech winning by the score of 13 to 6 and Syracuse being the victor at Syracuse, N. Y., last Satur- day by the score of 7 to 0. While both were small scores they were de- feats, nevertheless, but coach Bezdek has been drilling his squad this week especially for tomorrow’s game, and while not over-confident the State team will play its best to win. ——— Several Injured in a Motor Accident at State College. On Friday morning one of Myers big motor busses and a Dodge car came together at the corner of Beaver and Atherton streets, State College, with the result that Charles Strouse, who was driving the Dodge, has a broken right arm and serious bruises and cuts. He was accompa- nied by a school girl, but she escaped with minor injuries. The Dodge is a total wreck and it is a miracle that either of its occupants escaped death or more serious injury. The impact of the machines was with such force that the heavy bus was damaged to the extent of $1000. r————— reese. ——The Bellefonte branch of the Needlework Guild of America will hold their annual collection and distri- bution day on Tuesday, November 10, at the home of the president, Mrs. W.

Ivan Walker Recommended as Re- ceiver for Centre County Bank. At a special session of court, held before Judge Dale last Saturday morning, attorneys N. B. Spangler and James C. Furst presented a peti- tion for the appointment of a receiver and two appraisers for the Centre County bank, adjudged a bankrupt, with powers to make an appraisement of all known property and assets of the company, convert the same into cash for distribution among the cred- itors of the banking company, and also to determine the legally respon- sible stockholders at the time the bank closed its doors and their individual responsibility for the bank’s liabilities. The attorneys recommended the ap- pointment of Ivan Walker as receiver and while they had no recommenda- tions to make for appraisers Mr. Furst suggested W. Frederick Reynolds as one of the appointees. The attorneys also suggested that the receiver's bond be placed at $200,000. Judge Dale asked for a schedule of the bank’s assets and liabilities as a foundation on which to base the amount of the bond to be required, and Mr. Spangler stated that as complete a schedule would be furnished as pos- sible. The court stated that he would have to have a little time to consider the appointments as he did not have in mind any one for appraisers, but would give it his attention at an early date. Up to this time no appoint- ments have been announced. eet eee tseee—— Bellefonte High School Red and Blue Drive. The latter part of this week will see the High school putting on its an- nual Red and Blue drive. This yearly event is most necessary, for without the money derived from this source it would be impossible for the High school to put such excellent athletic teams on the field. The people of Bellefonte have become accustomed to winning teams but they little realize the expense that such a team entails. During the past few years equipment has taken such a jump in price that it 1s impossible to outfit a football team at less than $30.00 per man. The school authorities insist that every ef- fort shall be made to protect the play- er and so the latest safety devices are obtained. Moreover they go to great expense in obtaining worthy oppo- nents so that good games are insur- ed. At only one game to date has the attendance been large enough to pay expenses. Every one knows that good High school teams are the best advertise- ment a town can have. The name of Bellefonte was made known through- out the State last spring through its famous relay team. The football team is spreading the town’s reputation far and wide. The boys play the game, not for themselves, but for their school, which is an integral part of the town. The towns-people should show their interest in their own school by contributing to the drive, thereby making certain the continuation of B. H. S. successes in athletics. Social Happenings. The employees of the Keystone Power Cor., and their wives, will hold a masquerade party tonight at the company’s lodge room in Milesburg, elaborate preparations having been made a good time is assured the guests.

The bridge meet between the women of Lock Haven and Bellefonte was held last week at the Lock Haven Country club, the Bellefonte women being the winners by a score of 800, giving the lead of 400 in the total score.
