Bellefonte Young Woman Discards
Braces After Nine Years Use.
Nine years ago, while working at
the Bellefonte Telephone exchange,
Miss Ruth Howley, daughter of po-
liceman and Mrs. Thomas Howley,
contracted a bad attack of rheumatism
which settled in her limbs. In fact
both limbs were drawn up so much
that the knee joints were partially
drawn from the sockets. She was
taken to the University of Pennsylva-
nia hospital where an operation was
performed and she was fitted with
steel braces extending from her hips
to her feet and equipped with large
knee pads. : :
In this way she was able to get
around and after returning home went
to work for the old Commercial Tele-
phone company. She worked there
until that company was taken over by
the Bell pegple when she went back
to the Bell excharige.” With nine years:
years wear her braces and pads were:
about worn out and last week her
mother accorrpanied her to specialists
in Altoona with the result that on
Monday she returned to Bellefonte
carrying her braces and wearing noth-
ing but supporting knee pads. In fact
the specialists informed her that the
braces should have been discarded
years ago. Miss Howley is now able
to walk almost as free and easy as she
did before she suffered her attack of
rheumatism. i
John T. McCormick Surprised and
'' Delighted. :
The Hon. and Mrs. John T. McCor-
mick, of State College, were enjoya-
bly surprised, last Saturday when a
family reunion was held at the home
of their son-in-law and daughter, Mr.
and Mrs. J. Frank Krumrine, of State
College.
. All of Mr. McCormick’s children
were there and it was a symposium of
McCormick family memories, hopes
and expectations.
At the gathering were Mr. and Mrs.
J. Frank McCormick and family, of
Lock Haven; Mr. and Mrs. Walter
McCormick and family, with Mrs.
Arthur Wood, Mrs. McCormick’s sis-
ter, all of Waynesburg; Mr. and Mrs.
Clarence E. McCormick and family, of
Collegeville; and Mr. P. M. Corl and
family, of State College.
Not sated with Saturday’s get-to-
gether the whole clan swarmed again
at their father’s home, at State Col-
lege, on Monday and there was anoth-
er day of delightful family fellowship.
It is needless to say that these af-
fairs brought much joy to the paren-
tal heart. Those who know Mr. Mec-
Cormick know his love of congenial
company and his pride in and devo-
tion to his family, so that this must
have been a very happy occasion for
him,
Centre County Bank Building Sold.
The Centre County bank building
was sold at public sale, on Saturday
afternoon, to John P. Eckel for $20,-
000. There were only three bidders,
G. Oscar Gray, Daniel A. Grove and
Mr. Eckel. The sale of the bank
furniture, which was advertised to
take place at the same time as the
bank building, was continued indefi-
nitely, owing to “certain contingen-
cies that had arisen following the sale
of the building,” according to the an-
nouncement of L. Frank Mayes, auc-
tioneer.

GETTIG.—The very sudden death
of L. H. Gettig, at his home on north
Thomas street, early last Saturday
morning, was a distinct shock to his
many friends and business associates
in Bellefonte. He was at his place of
business as usual all day on Friday,
apparently the very picture of health.
About four o’clock on Saturday morn-
ing he was stricken with a. heart at-
tack and passed away within half an
hour.
Lewis Hahn Gettig was a son of
Samuel and Sarah Hahn Gettig and
was born near Booneville, Clinton
county, on March 31st, 1856, hence
had reached the age of 70 years, 4
months and 21 days. The Gettig fam-
ily came to Centre county while Lew-
is was yet a boy and when he grew to
manhood he embarked in the butcher-
ing business. His first venture was
at Pleasant Gap and during subse-
quent years he followed that vocation
in various places, spending several
years in Nebraska where he and Clyde
Wetzel conducted a meat market. Re-
turning east he located in Philipsburg
where he and Mr. Mock opened a shop
which today is the Philipsburg meat
market. He finally sold out his inter-
est in that place and came to Pleas-
ant Gap where he was in business a
short time and in 1892 came to Belle-
fonte -and purchased the Sechler meat
market, continuing in business here
ever since. Conscientious and upright
in all his business dealings he was a
splendid type of citizen and his sud-
den death is cause for deep regret.
On September 2nd, 1890, he mar-
ried Miss Alice Keturah Ulrich, who
passed away on July 2nd of this year,
but surviving him are two children,
Mrs. R. Wynn Davis, of Washington,
Pa., and Donald, of Clarksburg, Pa.
He also leaves four brothers and four
sisters, Frank, George and Clayton
Gettig, of Pleasant Gap; Irvin, of
Hublersburg; Mrs. Frank Weaver, of
Bellefonte; Mrs. John Uhl, of Pleas-
ant Gap; Mrs. Harvey Hoy, of Hub-
lersburg, and Mrs. William Sampsel,
of Braddock.
He was a member of the Lutheran
church and the funeral services, at
two o’clock on Tuesday afternoon,
were in charge of Rev. C. E. Arnold,
assisted by Rev. Reed O. Steely, bur-
ial being made in the Union cemetery,

. She was a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. J. S. Hoy and was born at Jack-
sonville on December 29th, 1861,
hence was in her sixty-fifth year.
She married Mr. McClintock in Janu-
ary 3rd, 1884, and all their married
life had been spent in Nittany val-

GARNER.—William E. Garner, for
years a well known resident of Tad-
pole, was found dead in bed at the
home of his brother-in-law, David
Wertz, at Gatesburg, last Friday
morning, a heart attack evidently be-
ing the cause.
He wags a son of Henry and Mary
Bloom Garner and was born at Tad-
pole on March 24th, 1851, hence was
in his 76th year. He was a blacksmith
by occupation and all his life was
spent at the old home until a few
months ago, following the death of
his brother Jeremiah, when he closed
the home and went to live with his sis-
ter, Mrs. Wertz, who is his only sur-
vivor. Funeral services were held at

Rev. Joseph Rigley, after which bur-
ial was made in the Meek’s church

the result of a sudden collapse. She
was a daughter of the late Henry and

fonte 45 years ago. She is survived

Woodward Cave Proving a
Money Maker.
Big
Taking big money from a hole in
the ground is the present occupation
of Luther L. Weaver and O. M. Hos-
terman, proprietors of the Woodward
cave. Since the cave was ovpened on
May 1st something over eleven thous-
and visitors have taken a personally
conducted tour through the under-
ground cavern. The charge for a trip
through the cave is 75 cents per,
which means that in a little over three
months the owners have taken in
$8,250. Of course it is not all yelvet,
as there is some expense connected
with it, but enough of it is pure prof-
it to add a tidy sum each month to the
individual bank account of Messrs.
Weaver and Hosterman. In fact it is
no mean business for a cave located
in the mountains far from any big
town, and if the Sesqui managers at
Philadelphia had one or two like it as
attractions at their Centennial they
i might be on the paying side instead of
i the losing.
Since the opening up of the cave
many stories have been circulated in
connection therewith, one of which by
the versatile Henry W. Shoemaker
being that it was at one time the hid-
ing place of Lewis, the robber.
time improbable,
five years ago. The man is G. R.
Spigelmyer, who, as a young man fre-
quently passed the cave. One day he
decided to investigate it and taking a
ball of twine and another young man
as a companion, he went to what
looked like a big hole in the ground.
The cave is located along Pine creek
and the opening was partially filled
with driftwood and dirt washed in by
high water from the creek when it
overran its banks. Tying one end of
the twine to a small tree Mr. Spigel-
myer and his companion entered the
cave, using tallow candles as light.
They were compelled to creep in many
places where the inwash of debris had
clogged the openings but finally
reached the main chamber where they
viewed with wonder the various for-
mations created by the dripping wa-
ter from the limestone rocks. The
two men traveled until their ball of
twine was entirely unrolled, then
afraid to venture further followed the
string back to the opening, and this is
the. first exploration of the cave defi-
nitely known.
Of course when Mr. Weaver and Mr.
Hosterman, less than a year ago, de-
cided to open up the cave as a natural
attraction they changed the course of
Pine creek to prevent any possible
flooding in the future, and spent
thousands of dollars in cleaning out
the rubbish and fixing up the cave to
make it attractive. Having done: so
their efforts.
Deer Poachers Busy in Seven Moun-
tains, is Report. :
John D. Decker, the veteran mem-
ber of the board of jury commission-
ers, was in Bellefonte on Friday and
Saturday helping to draw the jury for
| the September term of court. When
asked what the prospects are for a
' good deer season over in Decker val-
i ley he said it would be pretty good if
! the deer poachers would stay out of
the mountain and quit killing deer il-
legally. : :
Mr. Decker avers that the killing is
being done -at night by the aid of
strong flashlights, and is not the work
| of people living in that locality. He
[ declares that the pot hunters come in
{ after dark in automobiles, make their
i killing and get away under cover of
{ darkness. The bright rays from a
| strong flashlight so blinds the deer
| that a man ‘can walk almost close
; enough to bat them on the head. In
any event their killing under such cir-
| cumstances is an easy matter and can
| be done without enough of noise to at-
| tract attention.
Every traveler through the Seven
{ mountains knows that deer in that
| section are unusually plentiful. Does
‘and fauns, with a good sprinkling of
| bucks, can be seen most any day, and
Pete quite tame. But if Mr. Decker is
correct in his assertion that many
deer are being killed at night by ille-
gal hunters the Seven mountains
would be a good field for night work
on the part of the game wardens.
Port Matilda Residents Arrested in
Altoona,
William Matt and Gordon Walk,
two residents of Port Matilda, created
considerable excitement in Altoona,
last Friday, by driving up Washing-
ton avenue at a speed said to be from
45 to 50 miles an hour in a Jewett
coupe. Near Eighteenth avenue their
car crashed into a Ford touring car,
wrecking it, then careened from the
wreckage of the Ford and ran into the
porch of the home of Mrs. Lewis
Stahl, almost completely demolishing
it. The Jewett coupe was reduced to
a pile of junk. Both men were said
to have been under the influence of
liquor, and a broken bottle was found
on the Stahl porch.
The two men were arrested, Matt,
the owner and driver of the car, being
held for court on the charge of oper-
ating a motor vehicle while under the
influence of liquor, while Walk was
fined for being drunk and disorderly
conduct. Matt suffered several frac-
tured ribs while Walk escaped with a
few slight cuts and body bruises.

Big Sales of Household Furniture.
Two of the biggest sales of house-
hold furniture held in Bellefonte in
some years were those of L. H. Mus-
ser, on Thursday of last week, and
Miss Rachel Marshall on Saturday.
The Musser sale ran from 10:30
o’clock in the morning until almost
six o’clock in the evening and amount-
ed to a little over nine hundred dol-
lars.
The Miss Marshall sale amounted
to $671,00, and was interesting prin-
cipally because of the antique bidders
present. They came from New York
State, Philadelphia, Williamsport,
Lock Haven, Charleroi and other
places. Most of the furniture, crock-
ery ware, dishes, etc., were quite old,
having been in the family for several
generations. A walnut secretary, said
to be over one hundred years old
brought $50. Old mirrors went for
$10 and $14. A copy of Linn’s his-
| tory brought $12, and was bought by
a Bellefonte young woman. A set of
| six kitchen chairs, solid wood, sold for
$5.75 apiece and a set of dining room
chairs $6.75 each. Most everything
else went at proportionate prices, sim-
ply because they were classed as an-
_tique.
The Marshall property was sold to
| Mr. Moore, the purchaser, has not
today a man who went into it fifty- | made any plans, as yet, regarding the
property aside from the fact that he
| was impressed with the location as an
ideal place for a nice home and ex-
pects to improve the property so that
it will compare favorably with other
properties on that street.
| But the Marshall sale was not in it
with one held in Lewistown last week.
It was the household goods of Mary
Turner McCullough, who died several
weeks ago at the age of 93, leaving
her estate to the Lewistown hospital,
Y. M. C. A,, Presbyterian church and
Presbyterian home at Hollidaysburg.
At her sale two old davenports sold
for $100 each; a bread plate $12, a
round table $180, two ordinary parlor
chairs $50 each, a mantle mirrior $70
and a mantle clock $24. The sale to-
taled $2300.

New Dads’ Day Date at State College.
Announcement was made this week
at The Pennsylvania State College
that the annual Fathers’ day observ-
ance in the future will be held each
October instead of May, as has been
the custom since the event was estab-
lished in 1921. The change is at the
request of both students and fathers;
for most of the Dads wish to assem-
ble at a time when a football game
will be one of the attractions.
Saturday, October 9, when Mariet-
ta College is Penn State’s opponent
on the gridiron, has been selected as
Fathers’ day this fall.
