At a community meeting of dairy-

daily, which will be left on the farm-
er’s hands unless another market can
be secured. The dairymen, however,
have about decided to send their milk
to Huntingdon on a two weeks trial,
the price to be 35 cents per hundred
pounds. The Sheffield Farms com-
pany is also a bidder for the milk for
their plant at Centre Hall.

his wife made during their almost |
four years of service here. Rev. J. O.
C. McCracken, of Juniata, made the
principal address while brief but com-
plimentary talks were made by a
number of others. Rev. Fleming re-
sponded, and thanked the members of
his congregations who had so cheer-
fully labored with him on this, his
first charge.

contribution toward fixing up the old
cemetery. In addition the finance !
committee has raised $630.00 which |
makes a total of $1081.54, enough to
put the cemetery in good condition. [
APPRECIATION AND THANKS
The ladies of Ferguson township
wish to thank the public in general for |
the support given their community
supper and bazaar last week.
They also gratefully acknowledge
all contributions by baking companies,
ice cream plants, wholesalers serving
this community, and the newspapers
of the county. |
That this attempt on the part of the
ladies was one of the most successful
affairs ever held in this vicinity is!
proven by the fact that they handed
over $453 to the treasurer of the Old
Cemetery committee with which to
clean up and beautify that bit of
God’s acres.

Politically the average voter at the
Gap is apparently not manifesting
much interest in the comig animated
contest. In the language of the late
President Lincoln, “there are too
many horses for the stalls.” The
voters are becoming disgusted, and
there will not be the cutting and
, slashing that was anticipated. Ex-
| isting conditions are of a bewildering
‘ character, and many of the voters al-
lege they will vote the straight party
ticket as heretofore. I suppose in the
larger cities there will be some sur-
prises, but in the outlying districts
little change from the ordinary is
looked for. All in all the longest pole
will knock the persimmons. Some of
the aspirants will be sadly disappoint-
ed. I could name some of them, but
time will tell.
—In Pennsylvania oat smut caused
a loss of more than two bushels per
acre last year. Pennsylvania State
College specialists say that seed
treatment, costing two cents an acre,
prevents smut and so actually in-
creases the yield by two bushels an
acre.
A Flying Circus for the Altoona Race
Meet.
. Recent announcements marking the
initial board track showing of the
new speed way racing motors at |f
Altoona Saturday, June 12th, has
given the popular bowl considerable
prestige since it forms their start
over the grand national circuit.
Determined to set a new attendance
record for out-door attractions in the
eastern U. S., the Altoona Speedway
Association will stage a circus. Addi-
tional thousands will be attracted,
but not to the tented, old time P. T.
Barnum style, elephants, hippos,
camels, curiosities from all parts of
the world or such array as all have
witnessed.
Instead of a canvas roof, the sky
will be the overhead limit, for this
event is the modern “Flying Circus”
performance, employing high powered
airplanes and noted pilots. The Al-
toona track management will present
a trio of performers as a half hour
added feature to the race.
Captain Lloyd Yost, U. S. Army
pilot of world war days, now a civil-
ian flyer, and a recognized authority
on aeronautics, will offer the specta-
tors a program of thrilling stunts.
Captain Ralph Haymes, formerly
with the British Royal air forces, and
now a crack civilian stunt performer,
will team with Captain Yost in pre-
senting the air program. His cita-
tions won for activities with 33 years
of war work are numerous, while his
name embodied in stories of extra-

My kidneys were weak, too and I had

THE FIRST TELEPHONES
The first commercial telephone line in Pennsylvania was run between
1111 Chestnut Street and the old Continental Hotel in Philadelphia not
long after
Two instruments, a few hundred feet apart, comprised the first Bell tele-
the Centennial.
phone service in the state.
Other cities quickly followed suit. By 1900 there were fifty thousand
users; by 1905, nearly two hundred thousand; by the end of 1915, five
hundred thousand. Today, the operations of this company cover close
to a million telephones.
So does the service grow; and so does this constant broadening increase
its value to every user.
As to quality of service, our objective is a continuously increasing
promptness and dependability—that each year shall show greater facility
in its usage, either cross-town or cross-country, and still further diminish-
ing of mechanical and human failure in its operation.
As to further expansion, we neither have nor can have an exact
except to match the extension of our service with the public need for it.
Ten years ago it seemed to some that Pennsylvania was * saturated ”’ with
telephones. Since then the System has about doubled.
