—— The hottest day in Bellefonte
in August, 1883, was the 20th. The
temperature was 92 degrees at noon
that day and on the 17th it was 67 de-
grees at noon. There were only two
days in that month when the temper-
ature here reached 90 degrees.
——C. F. Tate is building a combi-
nation house and garage at the rear

steam heat and all conveniences. The
building fronts on Pike alley, which
has become quite a thoroughfare.
——The second annual convention
of the P. O. S. of A., of Central Penn-

park, Altoona, tomorrow. The var-
ious camps of Centre county are in- |
cluded in the district. Included in the
present officers of the association are
three Bellefonte men, M. R. Johnson, |
the treasurer; Hiram Grove, conduc-
tor, and J. E. Stine, inspector.
——The evenings are gradually
growing considerably longer and
movie fans will naturally be. spending
more time watching their favorite
stars on the silver screen. Naturally
those who want. to see the latest and
best pictures will migrate to the Scen-
ic, the one place in Bellefonte where
all the up-to-date pictures are shown.
Bellefonte people have learned from
experience and strangers always fol-
low the crowd. The moral is, choose
the Scenic and you'll never go wrong.
——Eighteen members of the Ma-
sonic fraternity, of Bellefonte, have
enrolled as members of the new
Knights Templar band now being or-
ganized under the leadership of Sir
Knight Frank L. Wetzler, of Miles-
burg. Practice meetings are held
once a week and the members have
already acquired enough proficiency
that Bellefonte people who heard
them tootin’ their horns in the Mason-
ic Temple, on Monday night, thought
that an indoor concert was being
given.
That our farmers are gradually
discontinuing the practice of churn-
ing their own cream into butter has
been evident for some years. Many
farmers no longer churn even enough
for their own use. They sell all their
milk, either whole, or as cream, to the
receiving stations and either get their
butter there or, as in some cases we
know of, actually buy oleo for home
use. Statistics recently compiled re-
veal that in 1879 Centre county farm-
ers made 629,366 pounds of butter.
In 1899, the apparent peak of home
production, they made 1,072,623
pounds.
milk began and has increased steadily
until last year only 318,290 pounds of
butter were made by the farmers of
Centre county.
——Dr. J. R. Barlett was in Belle-
fonte on Monday on his first visit in
six weeks, during most of which time
he was confined to bed with a very
sore foot as the result of stepping on
a needle. In fact it is a little over
seven weeks since the accident hap- |
pened to the doctor. At the time he
eame to the Centre County hospital to
have the needle removed but without
success. Having a friend in Greens-
burg, who enjoys quite a reputation
as a surgeon, he got a man at Pleas-
ant Gap to drive him out. The trip
was successful so far as the needle be-
ing found and removed was concerned
but coming down Bald Eagle valley on
the way home the doctor collapsed
from the pain and the man who had
him in charge thought he was dead.
And he was pretty near it, at that, be-
eause it was almost a week before he
became entirely rational. For four
weeks he lay on his back and last
Thursday was the first day he was
able to use his foot in walking.

FARMERS TRIUMPH
OVER KIWANIANS.
Penns Valley Farmers and State Col-
lege Kiwanians Meet at Boal
Camp for Happy Day
Together.
The first event of its kind in the
State College community—the first
annual Farmer-Kiwanian outing—
held at the Boal Camp on Thurs-
day of last week, was attended by a
crowd estimated at over 500 peopie,
mostly farmers from the Nittany and
Penns valleys.
Aside from interest in the awarding
of two silver trophy cups and a pair
of pedigreed fowls in three of the
listed contests, both the farmers and
the State College Kiwanians were at-
tracted by the special horse pulling
contest scheduled for the occasion in
which one of the two dynamometers
operated by Pennsylvania State Col-
lege was used.
Farmers gathered early at the
camp, ready for a day of rest and
pleasure. Thirty-five people includ-
ing ten women, entered the dairy cat-
tle judging contest which was held un-
der the direction of Professor E. B.
Fitts, of the college extension staff,
and with cows donated for the occa-
sion from the Boal Estate herd. Pro-
fessor Fitts declared the contest one
of the closest he had seen for a long
while, and late in the afternoon it was
announced that Eugene Hoffeditz, of
| Lemont, was the winner of the contest
‘and he received a loving cup as a re-
ward. - ?
| Second judging honors went to John
Kline,. of Boalsburg, and third was a
tie between C. M. Ross, Linden Hall,
and Harold Dreibelbis, of Pennsylva-
nia Furnace. Fred Markle, of State
College, finished fourth and A. C.
Grove, Bellefonte R. D. 2, was fifth.
At noon the large tables erected for
the occasion were filled «with
i
State College,
“real | bank, Philipsburg;
nearest to the number of eggs laid by
each during the year. There was a
tie in each case, Ruth Colyer, of Cen-
tre Hall, and Mrs. Ford L. Stump, of
tying on hen E-1073,
and Mrs. C. L. Goodling, Mrs. J. D.
Dreibelbis, Ernesta Dreibelbis, all of
State College; Mrs. A. McGraffin,
Boalsburg, and Mrs. A. C. Grove, of
Bellefonte, on hen E-16. In the lot
drawing, Mrs. Stump won out on the
first hen, and Mrs. McGraffin on the
second. Mrs. A. C. Grove won first
in guessing as to the total laid by the
two hens, the prize being a feed
trough, donated by Keefer & Nolan.
The total number of eggs laid by the
hens was: E-1073, 171; E-16, 149.
Centre County Bankers Hold Meeting
in Bellefonte.
In compliance to a call of the pres-
ident the Centre county Bankers’ As-
sociation held a meeting in the court
house, Bellefonte, at two o’clock last
Saturday afternoon. Eight of the
twelve banks in the county were rep-
resented.
In his opening remarks Charles M.
McCurdy, president of the associa-
tion, spoke of the growing need of
closer co-operation in all lines of bus-
iness and the benefits to be derived
from organization of people interest-
ed in the same line of business. It
was considered good policy on the
part of all members present to urge
upon every bank in the county to look
well to the future and make no radic-
al departure from long-established
principles of banking without first
consulting the association as a whole,
or at least submitting the question. to
the executive council. 4
In order to complete the organiza-
tion president McCurdy appointed the
following: executive committee: John
E. Fryberger, cashier First National
David F. Kapp,
eats” from Centre county firms and | cashier First National bank, State
State College homes, and the emptied | College; S. Ward Gramley, trust offi-
baskets were soon joined by emptied
tables and there was a lull while the
cer Farmers National bank, Millheim;
'C. H. Gould, cashier Peoples National
big feed had a chance to settle. Pro-
fessor R. G. Bressler led community
singing at this time.
All gathered around the dynamom-
eter while Joe Vail explained how the
horse pulling contests
One team entered failed to appear on
time and the teams of W. E. Kline,
Boalsburg, driven by his son, John
Kline, and of Colonel Boal, driven by
W. H. Harris, tested their muscles
with loads of 1200 pounds each. That
was easy and Vail gradually increased
the load to 2000 pounds tractive pull,
or enough to pull a ton weight out of
a deep well. The Boal team could not
move the load and then Young Kline
set his horses against it. They start-
ed the load but it was too much for
the harness, one of the hame straps
breaking under the strain, after a dis-
tance of five feet had been covered.
So the Kline team was declared the
winner.
Then came the tug-of-war with the
rope used by the college students for |
their annual contest. It was laid
across the stream at a shallow point
and 25 farmer guests tugged against
an equal number of Kiwanis hosts.
At the signal the farmer team literal-
ly ran away with the business men,
many of whom had to dash through
the stream.
For the ball game the Kiwanis Club
agricultural committee had provided
a trophy cup for the winner. The
; rural delegation again proved that
! they could play ball as well as pull
ropes, and downed their hosts to the
tune of 14 to 1. The farmers are to
hold the cup for a year, and when it
“has been won for three consecutive
years by one team it retains posses-
sion. :
Youngsters under ten years of age
entered running races. The results:
i 25-yards for boys, won by Wm. Lucas,
Cyrus Wert and Bob Havner tie for
| second; for girls, won by Mary Me-
Quillan; second, Lois Lonebarger. 50-
| yards for boys over ten, won by Harry
Gingrich, second Wm. Gross; for girls,
won by Priscilla Wasson, second
{ Florence McClelland. The sack race
was won by Lynn Mothersbaugh,
second Bob Havner. Three-legged
race, won by Lynn Mothersbaugh and
Harry Gingrich; second, Frederick
Dale and Kenneth Bohn.
There was a special contest for the
women, who made guesses as to the
| number of eggs laid by each of two
! hens that were shown in a wire cage,
' the hens to go to the women guessing
re conducted.
bank, State College; T. C. Jackson,
cashier Moshannon National bank,
Philipsburg; D. K. Keller, cashier
Pennsvalley Banking company, Cen-
tre Hall. The above committee with
the president and secretary shall con-
stitute the council of administration.
Attention was called to the tour of
the county by the agricultural com-
mittee of the Pennsylvania Bankers’
Association on August 19th, and it
was urged that every bank have at
least one representative, or as many
as possible, accompany the committee
over the county.
On motion it was decided to meet
, with the said committee on Wednes-
day evening, August 18th, at the Cen-
tre Hills Country club, for conference
and final arrangements. All members
who intend being present are request-
ed to notify David F. Kapp, State Col-
: lege, not later than Monday, August
16th.
Wool Growers Dispose of Their
++ Fleeces.
Members of the Centre "county
Sheep and Wool Growers’ association
loaded their spring clip of fleeces at
Bellefonte on Friday and Saturday,
the total being 9,500 pounds, which
was about 2,000 pounds less than the
clip last year. Disposal of the wool
was later than usual this year owing
to low market conditions. The pur-
chasers were Hirsch Bros. of Cum-
berland, Md., who paid approximately
six cents a pound more than local
dealers offered. A marked improve-
ment was noticed in the clip this year.
Last year rejections totaled twenty
per cent., while this year they were
down to five per cent.

JOHN KLINE'S BIG TEAM PULLING AGAINST JOE VAIL’S DYNAMOMETER AT THE FARMER-KIWANIAN PICNIC
AT BOALSBURG LAST THURSDAY. (Note the steady way this team is laying into its collars.)
i Re)
ESCAPED CONVICT
ALSO STEALS AUTOMOBILE.
Caught at Stormstown While At-
tempting to Steal Another Car.
Clifford Guthrie, the Fayette coun-
ty prisoner who made his escape from
the Rockview penitentiary, last
Thursday morning, while at work on
the big impounding dam in McBride’s
gap, was captured at Stormstown on
Saturday night after he had stolen
one automobile and was making an at-
tempt to steal another car.
After making his escape Guthrie
kept under cover in the underbrush on
Nittany mountain until Thursday
night when he went down to Linden
Hall and stole the Chevrolet car of
Mrs. Ruth Gearhart. In the car he
traveled west through Pennsvalley
and on to Warriorsmark but his igno-
rance of direction led him to make the
wrong turn there and instead of con-
tinuing on to Tyrone he took the road
leading up to Halfmoon valley. Just
as he neared Stormstown he ran out
of gas and going to the barn on the
Way farm managed to find a ten gal-
lon can of gasoline which he stole and
emptied into the tank of his stolen
car. But try as he might he could not
get the car started, which was prob-
ably in his favor, for had he been able
to do so and continued his journey he
would have arrived in Bellefonte
about four o’clock Friday morning.
Guthrie kept under cover in the vi-
cinity of Stormstown until Saturday
night when he visited the garage own-
ed by George Harshberger and I. C.
Thomas and made an attempt to steal
a car there. Mr. Harshberger, how-
ever, heard a noise at the garage and |
going out caught Guthrie in the act
of trying to start a car. He promptly
took him in charge and believing him
to be the escaped prisoner telephoned
the penitentiary authorities and as-
sistant deputy C.' C. Rhoads went up !
to Stormstown and finding him to be
the right man brought him to Belle-
fonte and landed him in the Centre
county jail shortly after midnight.
ANOTHER ESCAPED CONVICT SEN-
TENCED.
John Snyder, the other convict who
escaped early last week and was cap-
tured on Thursday morning, was sen-
tenced the same afternoon to an ad-
ditional term of two to four years.
When called for sentence he told the
court that he was born in Florida, of
Pennsylvania parents. He tired of
the south and worked his way north
finally landing in Cameron county.
There he became sick and could not
work. Out of a job and out of money
he took the course of least resistance,
broke into a house and stole ten dol-
lars. He gave all the money to a doc-
tor for medicine but was finally
caught, convicted and given two to
four years. This was in August, 1925.
He was transferred to Rockview on
July first of this year and on August
3rd made his escape. He admitted
that he knew he was taking a long
chance and would draw a double sen-
tence if caught, but he hoped he
might get away and then he would go
to South America and reform. But
fate was against him and he would
take his medicine like a man.
Pioneers of Today.
The covered wagon has gone, the
oxen’s bones whiten on the prairies,
the flint lock is rusty, but the spirit
of the pioneer still lives in the heart
of boyhood.
The prairies may be surveyed, the
jungles may be pierced, the pole may
be won, but adventure still beckons.
Who would say that the spirit of
Boone, of Carson, of Roosevelt, of
Marconi or of Byrd is dying out?
Strong bodies, pliant supple mus-
cles, keen eyes, sturdy hearts, high
courage, dauntless daring, strength of
character, deep trust, buoyant hope,
steady plugging, all the qualities of
the finest pioneer—still are needed.
Almost a million boys, the world
over, are joining themselves together
in this new pioneering into life. They
find that the activities, the opportuni-
i ties, the fellowship, that the Young
Men’s Christian Association offers is
a true reflection of the pioneering
spirit. There is fun, excitement, ad-
venture. There is achievement, re-
! cognition, reward. There is growing
strength, truth, manhood, and loyal
citizenship ahead.
Perhaps you too—would go pioneer-
ling. If so, join the Y.
. with her brother Joseph
' their cottage on Lake Erie.

urally thought he had reached the end of
the trail without our having heard of it

—Miss Mary Gross, of Axe Mann, was
among the Saturday shoppers in Belle-
fonte and found time for a pleasant little
call at this office. In the course of the
chat with her we learned that Hdgefonte
is coming into general use as the name of
their village, and that reminds us that
years ago it was called “Boiling Springs”
because of the bubbling waters in the cor-
ner of the old Mann homestead there. Then
the Manns had a postoffice established
there and because there is another Boiling
Springs down in Cumberland county the
name could not be duplicated in the postal
records and that o? Axe Mann was chosen
for the postoffice. The axe works closed,
the postoffice was abandoned and the Ggr-
mans came into possession of the Mann
property. They converted it into a sum-
mer place for themselves and called it
Edgefonte with the result that the name
has been spreading until it will probably
not be long until Boiling Springs and Axe
Mann are entirely forgotten.

he is Walter Gherrity was in town, Satur

the Seven mountains. Walter is still fol-
lowing in the footsteps of his uncle Pat,
whe lived alone so many years on the farm
on the top of the mountain and while some
might have called him a recluse he was
not that, for no one loved company more
or showed greater hospitality to the
sportsman who went to his place to hunt
or fish. Walter told us that deer have be-
come so plentiful about his place that they
arouse no more of his interest than if they
were his flock of sheep.
