No. 1259879, Company M, 10th infant-
ry, killed in France during the world
war in 1918, will arrive in Brooklyn
about December 5th (tomorrow.) The
fact will be recalled that the grave of
Sergt. Lingle was only recently dis-
covered which accounts of the delay
in sending the body home. The re-
mains will be sent direct from Brook-
lyn to Bellefonte but just when they
will arrive is not yet definitely known.
The young soldier’s mother, Mrs. J.
Howard Lingle, and his sister, Mrs.
Stacey Hay, both of DuBois, as well
as his brother, Harold B. Lingle, of
Syracuse, will come to Bellefonte for
the funeral services which will be held
in St. John’s Episcopal church by the
Episcopal rector of DuBois. Burial in
the Lingle plot in the Union cemetery
will likely be made with the honors of
war.
——Longevity evidently runs in the
Eberhart family as Mr. Daniel W. Eb-
erhart, the dean of the cult in this
section of the State, was just ninety-
two years old on Sunday, within eight
years of one hundred years. Not
wishing to celebrate the event on the
Sabbath day his children and others
gave him a delightful surprise on Sat-
urday. Those who contributed to the
delightful event were his three daugh-
ters, Mrs. Harry Badger, Mrs. Joseph
Abt, and Miss Mary Eberhart, of
Bellefonte; a brother, James Eberhart,
of Lewisburg, and his three children,
Mrs. Frank Barber, Mrs. Samuel Rea-
mer, and Calvin Eberhart; his sister,
Mrs. S. D. Burris, of Centre Hall, and
her son, L. J. Burris, and Mrs. Wil-
liam Walker, also of Centre Hall.
They all came laden with an abund-
ance of good things to eat which fur-
nished one of the delightful features
of the gathering. Of course Mr. Eb-
erhart received many very useful and
worthwhile presents and all the good
wishes possible to bestow. Mr. Eber-
hart, by the way, is one of the few re-
ally aged men in Bellefonte, and still
enjoys remarkably good health,
MANY DEER SLAIN
IN SEVEN MOUNTAINS.
Decker Rod and Gun Club Gets Limit
in Two Days.
The “Watchman” told you last week
that every indication pointed to a
good kill of deer during the opening
days of the hunting season, and ear-
ly returns show that our prediction
was justified. In fact from reports
received it seems as if the hunters
must have been making a slaughter
house out of the Seven mountain dis-
trict. The prize-taking hunting par-
ty heard of up to date was the Decker
Rod and Gun club, hunting in Decker
valley. They got five bucks on Tues-
day, the first day of the season and
another on Wednesday. As this was
their limit they broke camp and re-
turned home on Wednesday afternoon.
One of their bucks had a rack of four
prongs, two of them had three prongs
and three of them two prongs.
A Johnstown hunting party quar-
tered at the Old Potters Mills hotel
got a four pronged buck for their first
day’s hunt.
Another party from further west in
the State bagged a six pronged buck
deeper in the mountains above Pot-
ters Mills.
Motoring parties coming over the
Seven mountains from Lewistown re-
ported the main highway lined with
hunters, but only a few bucks were
strung up within sight of the road.
But other hunters who did not go
to the Seven mountains fared fairly
well on the opening day. Pleasant
Gap hunters bagged a nice buck in
Greenvalley on Tuesday morning.
Reubin and Jim Hilliard, of Cple-
ville; J. A. Harter and Wayne Hile, of
Bellefonte, went up into the Barrens,
near Scotia, bagged a nice four point
buck and were home by the midde of
the ‘afternoon.
Up in the western end of the coun-
ty there are a dozen or more hunting
parties from State College, Pine
Grove Mills and vicinity, all of whom
are out in their regular camps on Old
Tussey, but so far no detailed reports
have been received from them.
Of course, with several thousand
hunters in the woods, and all anxious
to get a deer, there is sure to be a
number of illegal kills, hence it is
nothing extraordinary that four of
this kind of deer were brought to for-
ester McKinney’s home in the Seven
mountains up to three o’clock on
Tuesday afternoon. Whether the
hunters who shot them were appre-
hended or not, could not be learned.
A nice two pronged buck was shot
by some hunter on the mountain above
Boalsburg late Saturday or early Sun-
day morning. It was found by a game
warden and sent to Bellefonte on Sun-
day afternoon by Toner Aikey, and
later turned over to the hospital.
All his lie John L. Nighthart, of
Bellefonte, has had dreams of killing
a deer, or at least being a member of
a party lucky enough to bag one, and
in the latter respect his dream was re-
alized on Tuesday. Eearly that morn-
ing he and Hugh Daley, of Philadel-
phia, motored over to Potters Mills
where they met several other Belle-
fonte hunters and with a native of
that section as a guide went up on the
mountain and killed a fine three point
buck. The animal was brought to
earth by Mr. Daley. They returned
home on Wednesday morning.
D. B. Mattern, of Altoona, came to
Centre county for the opening of the
season and went out in the Barrens
in Halfmoon valley, killing a four
prong buck before noon.
Down at Aaronsburg William Bow-
er and son-in-law, Harold Hazel, went
out onto Big mountain, got a four
pronger and was back home by nine
o'clock. The E.L. Stover hunting
party, of that place, also got a four
pronged buck.
Over in the Seven mountain section
the Lamar hunting club have two deer
at last reports.
The Brown party hunting at Kra-
ders have one.
The Williams party one.
A hunting party on the old Dippery
place two.
The Gentzel party of Shamokin one.
The Charles B. Neff party one.
The Detwiler crew one.
Frank Cobler, of Linden Hall, killed
his deer on Nittany mountain on the
opening day.
The Hecla hunters got a two point
buck the first day.
Down in the Colyer section the Un-
ion hunting club have four bucks.
The Schuylkill party got four but
one of them was a spike buck not of
legal age.
The Pleasant Gap hunters have
four.
The Meiss hunting party one.
Frank Lingle and William Nevel,
day hunters, each shot one.
Returning from the mountain on
the opening day without having shot
a deer, Floyd Jordon, of Colyer, was
surprised to see a big bear meander-
ing through a field near the foot of
the mountain, evidently having sought
open country to get away from the
hunters on the mountain. He was
successful in bringing the bear to
earth and it proved to be a monster,
dressing 384 pounds.
Centre Hall day hunters got a nice
buck on Wednesday over in the Seven
mountains, shot by Rev. Corman, of
Sunbury, son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs.
Frank M. Fisher.
Deer are evidently quite plentiful
on Old Tussey, from Boalsburg to
Pine Grove Mills, as up to yesterday
morning the Riley hunting club had
bagged five.
The Ramer crowd have four.
The Fisher party four,
The Sunday-Rossman crowd two.
The Kepler hunting party three.
Day hunters working in that sec-
i
| tion can account for twelve deer and
two bears.
Down in the Paddy mountain sec-
tion eighteen deer have been reported
killed so far, while out on the Alleghe-
nies eight is the total up to this time.
All told probably one hundred and fif-
ty bucks have been slain in the first
three days of the season.
Bell Telephone Company Working on
Consolidation. :
The Bell Telephone company of
Pennsylvania has quite a force of men
at work taking over the rural lines
and small exchanges of the Penn State
Telephone company, and they expect
to complete this work by the first of
the year when the consolidation of the
two companies will become effective.
The next step will be the consolida-
tion of the two exchanges at State
College and last of all will be the in-
stallation of additional equipment in
the Bellefonte exchange to enable the
Bell people to handle the additional
subscribers which will come to them
in taking over the Penn State com-
pany.
Of course in the consolidation the
Bell company will not have to pro-
vide facilities to handle the entire list
of Penn State subscribers, as many
business places and some private res-
idences now have both phones, but
when the consolidation takes place
only the one phone will be needed.
One additional section of switchboard
and probably two additional operators
will take care of the increased service
that will accrue to the Bell company
by reason of the consolidation. Bell
officials figure that it will be six
months, at least, before the work of
consolidating the two Bellefonte ex-
changes is completed but it will be
done without loss of service to any of
the subscribers of either company.
The present equipment of the Penn
State company will all be discarded
and Bell equipment and instruments
will be substituted for all instruments
of the Penn State company now in use
in business places or residences.
Of late numerous rumors have been
afloat regarding a proposed increase
in rates and limitation of service as
soon as the consolidation becomes ef-
fective. Manager F. L. Richards, of
the Bellefonte district, stated on Mon-
day that the only change to become
effective will be a charge of ten cents
per call to State College, Boalsburg
and Howard. There will be a charge
of 15 cents for calls to Beech Creek.
Toll charges to other exchanges will
remain as at present. There will be
no extra charge for calls from Belle-
fonte to the Zion or Centre Hall ex-
changes as they are within a short dis-
tance of Bellefonte. Those charges
will become effective January first.
and will apply to both Penn State and
Bell subscribers. There will not: be
any increase in the monthly rates now
established for either business places
or private residences, and the rumor
that subscribers will be limited to a
certain number of calls per day is also
unfounded. The service will be as un-
limited as it is at present and will be
governed by the same rules and regu-
lations now in force.
Bellefonte Elks Will Hold Memorial
Services Sunday Afternoon.
The Bellefonte Lodge of Elks will
hold their annual memorial services
(Lodge of Sorrow) in Petrikin hall, at
three o’clock on Sunday afternoon,
December 6th, and they desire it be
generally known that the public is cor-
dially invited to attend. The memor-
ial address this year will be delivered

while the services will be featured by
a special program of music. Five
members of the Bellefonte lodge pass-
ed away during the year, namely:

gram of services will be as follows:

A Rare Investment Opportunity at
State College.
The First National Bank at State
College recently authorized an in-
crease of its capital stock so as to
bring the amount up to $200,000.00.
This made it possible for the institu-
tion to offer to investors in the com-
munity which it serves an opportuni-
to to buy into one of the soundest and
most rapidly growing financial insti-
tutions in Central Pennsylvania.
Sale of the new stock was begun
only on Tuesday and up to yesterday
morning over half of it had already
been subscribed for. It is being offer-
ed at $230.00 a share, the price being
fixed by the fact that when the issue is
disposed nf the bank will have a fully
paid capital of $200,000.00, surplus of
$200,000.00 and undivided profits of
$50,000.00.
Opportunity to buy the stock is lim-
ited to persons in the territory served
by the bank and for those looking for
an investment that is certain to yield
handsome profits it is a rare one.

JUDGE DALE APPOINTS
NEWS PURELY PERSONAL.
THREE BANK RECEIVERS. —Miss Margaret Mignot was a week-end
, Who will Proceed at Once to Liqui-
date Affairs of Centre County
Banking Company.
Judge Arthur C. Dal. on Monday
appointed John S. Ginter, of Tyrone;
John S. Dale, of State College, and
Rev. Reed O. Steely, of Bellefonte, re-
ceivers for the Centre County Bank-
ing company, and Daniel A. Grove and
Lewis Schad, of Bellefonte, apprais-
ers. Bond for the receivers was fixed
at $250,000.
On November 11th a petition was
presented to the court by N. B. Spang-
ler, attorney for the creditors’ com-
mittee, and James C. Furst, attorney
of record in the equity proceedings,
asking for the immediate appointment
of a single receiver, and recommend-
ing the appointment of Ivan Walker,
who has been acting as temporary re-
ceiver ever since his appointment by
the late federal judge Charles B. Wit-
mer shortly after the bank closed in
1922. At the same time a petition
signed by the names of twenty-six de-
positors was presented asking for the
appointment of three receivers; one
of the reasons given being that Mr.
Walker is already the trustee of the
bankrupt estates of John M. Shugert
and Mrs. Mary A. Harris, and his ap-
pointment as sole receiver would be
placing him in a dual position.
Judge Dale’s appointments on Mon-
day were made without comment of
any kind. As soon as the new receiv-
ers file their bond they will be in a
position to take over all of the bank’s
affairs and the first thing that will be
done will be an appraisement of the
property, which will consist of all the
assets of the bank, cash, bonds, notes
or anything in hand, real estate and
the property of confessed voluntary
bankrupts. Mr. Walker,
receiver, will file with the court a com-
plete statement of everything in his
possession which he will in due time
turn over to the new receivers and
they in turn will probably arrange to
convert everything possible into cash
and make a percentage distribution
among the depositors at as early a
date as can be without sacrificing any
of the bank’s assets.
Lewis Schad having declined to ac-
cept the appointment as an appraiser
the court on Monday named Mr.
Claude Cook for the vacancy.
The bond for the three receivers
will be just the same and cost the
same as it would have for one. We
understand that their compensation
will be no more than one would have
been legally entitled to charge and
that even that is subject to revision
by the court should it seem excessive.
We also understand that the receiv-
ers expect to follow an “open-door”
policy. It is rumored that they will
conduct their business from the old
banking rooms and announce certain
times when creditors will be welcomed
and given every opportunity to know
how the settlement of their affairs is
progressing.
The receivers held a preliminary
meeting in Bellefonte yesterday af-
ternoon and made arrangements for
securing the necessary bond and also
in a way mapped out plans for pro-
ceeding as quickly as possible with
the liquidation of the bank’s affairs.
How Tuberculosis Christmas Seal Sale
Money is Used.
In Pennsylvania, twenty persons
succumb every day to tuberculosis.
Among the average hundred citizens
75 to 90 per cent. have tuberculous in-
fection or the seed of the disease. Dr.
Devitt, of Devitt camp, says every
case of tuberculosis can be cured if di-
agnosed in time; therefore, in Belle-
fonte, the money derived from the sale
of Christmas seals is used to pay rent
of room and janitor service for State
chest clinic held every Tuesday after-
noon, in Petrikin hall, with Dr. David
Dale in charge, assisted by Miss Ethel
Campbell, State nurse, where any one
in this county may go and have a free
chest examination. In the past year
there were 78 observation cases, 12
active cases, 10 cases sent to Cresson
for sanatorium care.
In Milesburg, the money from the
last Seal sale was used to employ our
former Red Cross nurse, Mrs. Merrill
Hagan, to do follow-up work from the
medical inspection records in the
schools of Milesburg and Central City.
As the latter is a centralized township
school, the follow-up work covered the
entire township of Boggs.
In Howard, the money was used to
employ the dental hygienist for one
week in the schools.
In Snow Shoe, the money was used
to employ the dental hygienist for two
weeks in the schools.

Bellefonte Academy Won Two Games
Last Week.

they played a picked team of players
from Thiel college and other schools,

naca is Hood’s home town and the trip
there was made for the sole purpose
of giving his home town friends an

Two More Robberies in Bald Eagle
Valley.
Between the hours of six and seven
o’clock last Friday evening, while the
agent in charge was at supper, some
person broke into the station at Port
Matilda and stole a sum of money,
though the exact amount has not been
made public. The same night the store
of James Davidson, at Snow Shoe In-
tersection, was burglarized. No money
of any consequence was gotten there
but clothing and various articles were
stolen. Mr. Davidson estimates his
loss at upwards of fifty dollars. No
trace of the robbers has been discov-
ered.

Closing Out Our Christmas Cards.
We have a number of Christmas
cards that we are anxious to close out
and are offering them below original
cost. They are all embossed but with-
out greeting and are especially adapt-
ed for those who prefer the less for-
mal and more intimate mode of writ-
ing their own greetings.
We will be glad to print greetings
on any cards you select and, of course,
have a splendid line of engraved cards
to choose from. It is getting late,
however, and those who expect to use
engraved cards should order them at
once.
