Isaak Waltoners Have Talk Fest But
No Meeting.
Because there were not enough
present to constitute a quorum the
Isaac Walton League of Bellefonte
failed to hold a regular meeting two
weeks ago. Those who did gather in
the court house remained for several
hours to discuss problems of forest
and stream informally. In fact, it
was our idea that the meeting was
quite as beneficial as if it had been in
regular session.
The most interesting contribution
to the many thoughts under discus-
sion was one presented by James
Uzzle, of Snow Shoe, who is of the
opinion that aliens, because they are
not permitted to have a gun or hunt,
are snaring both small and large
game with devices very unusual to
this country. It is his thought that
they capture pheasents, wild turkeys,
rabbits and some larger game in far
greater quantity than anyone knows.
To emphasize the point, he had with
him two snares, part of forty-two re-
cently found in the woods about Snow
Shoe, that were so unique in con-
struction and operation as to excite
considerable interest. They were
very simple little devices, easily trans-
ported and set up and from which a
pheasant or turkey once enmeshed
couldn’t possibly escape. They had
all the ear marks of those acquainted
with poaching methods in foreign
countries and were undoubtedly the de-
vices of some of the foreign popula-
tion in the Snow Shoe district.
State College Bulletin Gives Home
Heating Hints.
Valuable suggestions for the oper-
ation of house heating plants and the
economical use of coal are contained
in a bulletin just issued by the engine-
ering experiment station of the Penn-
sylvania State College. The publi-
cation gives the results of several
years study of fuels conducted by F.
G. Hechler, professor of engineering
research at the college, and it is of
particular value to the householder
whose heating troubles have been in-
creased by the coal strike and the
frigid weather.
Less than a quarter of an inch of
soot on the heating surface of the
boiler will reduce the efficiency of that
surface by seventy per cent., the bul-
letin points out. Cleanliness of flues
and heating surfaces is outstanding
in Professor Hechler’s suggestions
for fuel saving. A second factor
which he rates almost as important
is the covering of all heat pipes in the
cellar. A square foot of uncovered
heat pipe in the cellar is capable of
costing the house owner a loss of 150
pounds of fuel in one heating season,
results show. The savings from such
covering will pay for it in one or two
seasons, the bulletin points out.
Copies of the bulletin may be ob-
tained from the engineering experi-
ment station, Pennsylvania State Col-
lege, State College, Pa. They are
free to residents of Pennsylvania.

9,495 Aliens Deported by Authorities
in 1925.
Washington.—Secretary of Labor
James J. Davis, reports that the im-
migration service during the fiscal
year 1925 arrested and deported a
total of 9,495 aliens; the largest num-
ber in the history of the service. He
makes the following comment on the
situation:
“With the tide of immigration sud-
denly and materially stemmed by the
adoption of restrictive immigration
measures, leaving millions of aliens
who were unable to gain admission
through lawful channels, it is quite
natural that their eyes should turn to
other channels which afford a means
of gaining entry.
“Stimulated by conditions existing
in their own countries and encouraged
by unscrupulous persons, who sought
to reap financial reward from their
undertakings, they were easily influ-
enced to adopt the “back door,” which
to them presented a ready albeit an
expensive, means of effecting entry
to the land of their ambitions.
- “Of a total of 9,495 deportations
under warrant for the fiscal year, the
largest number in the history of the
immigration service, 1,169, were upon
the ground of entry without inspec-
tion. Deportations to Canada num-
bered 1,921 and to Mexico, 1,826. The
remainder, minus a small percentage
of South Americans, Asiatics, and
Africans, were deported to European
countries.” :
—The Jonses had been through the
trying ordeal of a fire.
All the neighbors gallantly turned
out and gave every assistance that
lay in their power, finally putting up
the Jonses themselves for the night.
However, things weren’t so bad as
they looked and the following day the
Jonses found that they could return
to their home.
Accordingly they did so, and having
settled down, they wondered what
could be done to show their appre-
ciation of their neighbors’ kindness.
At last they hit upon a brilliant idea
and inserted an advertisement in the
local paper: It read thus:
“Mr. and Mrs. Jones wish to ex-
press thanks to their many friends
and neighbors who so kindly assisted
at the burning of their residence.”

How Coffee Stimulates.
Coffee is more of a stimulant than
alcohol. The latter makes a man stu-
pid. It is depressing and paralyzes
all proper fear and restraint. While
those under its influence can do more:
work, they do not do it well. On the
other hand coffee is stimulating, en-
abling the user to work beyond nor-
mal strength, although he must pay
the penalty later in loss of sleep.
These statements were made recently
by Dean Henry H. Rushby of the Co-
lumbia College of Pharmacy in New
York city, says Popular Science
Monthly.
Hard to Account for
Hobbies of Collectors
You can understand a person collect-
ing china or coins or stamps or snuff
boxes. These are objects of beauty, or
at any rate of interest. Birds’ eggs,
butterflies, or beetles form interesting
collections and teach natural history,
while such objects as playing cards,
fans, mezzotints, or enamels have af
least historic interest.
But of late years many people have
abandoned the more ordinary forms of
collecting in favor of gathering to-
gether all sorts of freakish objects
which do not appear to have either
beauty or intrinsic value, and the gath-
ering of which at much expense both
of time and money looks like sheer
waste of both these commodities
For instance, in a daily paper cer-
tain individuals have been boasting
of their collections of match boxes,
one correspondent declaring that he
has over 300 different specimens.
No doubt the collection gives him
a certain amount of pleasure, but
what will his heirs think of it? Would
any museum say “thank you” for it?
But the collector of match boxes
shows more discrimination than the
man who has spent half a lifetime
and goodness knows how much money
in traveling all over the world and
collecting water from each river he
comes across.
Out of each stream he takes a sam-
ple in a small bottle, which is then
sealed and labeled. He has already
hundreds of these bottles, and the
number constantly grows.
A hobby that Is worse than useless
is the collection of title pages. This
is a form of curio hunting of consid-
erable antiquity, and is the reason why
so many early printed books lack their
title pages. Thousands of the rarest
books have been mutilated in this way,
the classical authors suffering more
than others for the reason that their
title pages were so often fine steel
plates.
Helium for Longevity
Helium, the sun element, is now a
commercial product in relation to lon-
gevity.
aerated table water. Claimed to be
the intrinsic factor of most of the
health springs, helium in this impreg-
nated water, is said to prevent the
clogging of the vascular glands nor-
mally responsible for the nutrition of
the body. If they become debilitated
or functionless there is senility and
the phenomena characteristic of cer-
tain chronic complaints. Vital sta-
tistics gathered in the vicinity of
some of these springs are very inter-
esting—accounting in one instance for
no fewer than 20 octogenarians in a
population of 523. The difficulty of
obtaining a supply of helium at an
economic price has held back its ther-
apeutic applications. It is now avail-
able at a figure which permits its sale
in England in aerated water at about
10s 6d per dozen bottles.—London
Times. ns :
Kings Made Sea Popular
Do you know why you go to the sea
shore to spend your summer vaca-
tion? It is because the sea shore was
made fashionable by royalty.
There was a time when no one ever
thought of spending a holiday by the
sea. Such a thing was unheard of.
The country and inland watering
places were then in favor. Then came
a change.
George III of England became ill
and, according to Tit-Bits, was ad-
vised by his physicians to go to Way-
mouth-by-the-sea. Instantly the town
came into favor. Later George IV
patronized Brighton, and the resort be-
came famous, And from then on sea-
side vacations became increasingly
popular.
Protestants Vist Pope
Among the hundreds of thousands
who, during the year of pilgrimage,
sought audience with the pope, have
been many Protestants, whose requests
have been received quite as hospit-
ably and granted quite as quickly as
these of Catholics. Especially notable,
in this respect, were two Scandinavian
pilgrimages. The first contained 400
Catholics and 40 Protestants; the sec-
ond, 30 Catholics and 180 Protestants.
The Protestants, among them several
pastors, were regularly inscribed as
Pilgrims and were given a special wel-
come by the pope in his informal ad-
dress.
Wise Child
The attitude of so many foreigners
across the seas toward Americans
demonstrates the truth of the proverb
about fair-weather friends, and re-
minds one of little Billy.
Billy’s uncle paid him a visit. When
he was leaving, Bflly was playing out
in front of his home with a group of
boys, so his uncle gave him a dime,
saying: “You have lots of playmates,
Billy; are they all your friends?”
“I was just playing with them,” he
replied, putting the dime in his pock-
et, “but they'll all want to be my
friends now.”
Escaped Russian Prison
After 11 years’ imprisonment in Rus-
sla, during which he made several un-
successful attempts to escape, Paul
Cons, sculptor, recently reached Bonn.
During the Russian campaign of the
German army in August, 1914, Cons
was wounded and taken prisoner.
When he recovered, he says, he was
assigned to a Russian working squad
and put at hard labor. His repeated
attempts to escape were frustrated un-
til this year, when Cons and three com-
paniona gucceeded in crossing ihe bor-
| der.
