Philipsburg Woman Celebrates 102nd '
Birthday Anniversary.
On Sunday Mrs. Mary Howe Me-
Clellan, widow of Ellis McClellan, of
Philipsburg, was 102 years old and
the momentous event was celebrated !
on Saturday with a family dinner at
the home of her daughter, Mrs. Lydia
Arnot, which also included a few in-
timate friends. Mrs. McClellan was
born at Binghamton, N. Y., but the
greater part of her life has been spent
in Philipsburg and vicinity.
When Mrs. McClellan was born
James Monroe was President of the
United States, so that she has lived
during the administration of twenty-
five Presidents. At the time of her
birth on February 13th, 1825, there
were no railroads, no telegraphs, tele-
phones or any of the present day con-
veniences. Four times she has seen
her countrymen march forth to war,
first with Mexico, then the great Civil
war, the war with Spain and lastly the
world war and each time they return-
ed home conquerers.
Mrs. McClellan has five daughters
living, Mrs. Harry Bell, of Tyrone;
Mrs. David Sowers, Mrs. Esther
Ebock, Mrs. Henrietta Freeman and
Mrs. Julia Arnot, all of Philipsburg.
That remarkable woman, Mrs. Jona-
than Bilger, of Pleasant Gap, was 96
vears old last Friday, and, as has been
her custom for a dozen years or more,
had open house for the members of her
family and friends. Seventy-five
guests gathered at her home during
the afternoon and evening, most of
whom partook of the bountiful dinner
which was a feature of the gathering.
Still enjoying remarkably good
health, despite her advanced age, Mrs.
Bilger entered into the enjoyment of
the occasion and remained with her
guests until the evening was well
spent when she retired to her room.
February must be a good month in
which to be born because just as we
finished writing the above item an-
other nonogenarian invaded our office
in the person of Thaddeus R. Hamil-
ton, of Bellefonte. In fact his 91st
anniversary will occur on February
17th, but it is hard to believe it from
his looks and actions. Mr. Hamilton,
by the way, was one of the first white
men to climb Pike’s peak, which he did
as a young man while on a gold pros-
pecting trip through the west. This
was over three score years ago and
he is the only man living who made the
trip at that time. Anent his anniver-
sary on the seventeenth he is looking
forward to having with him on that
day his daughter, Mrs. Broderick, of
State College, with her two children.
“Jimmy” Waddle, the veteran re-
tired railroader, of Lock Haven, cele-
brated his 93rd birthday anniversary
last Friday. He is still in good health
and going almost as strong as when
he made his regular runs up and down
Bald Eagle valley. And writing of
birthdays our good friend, Jerry Don-
avan, of Axe Mann, celebrated his
85th anniversary on February 1st, and
David Barlett, another retired rail-
roader of Bellefonte, recently celebrat-
ed his 81st anniversary.

Bankers Hold Interesting Meeting in
Altoona.
All the banks in Centre county
were represented at the thirty-second
annual meeting of Group Six, Pennsyl-
vania Bankers’ Association, held at
the Elks home, in Altoona, on Sat-
urday, with luncheon at the Penn Alto
hotel. Following the scheduled ad-
dresses by M. A. Kendall, of Pitts-
burgh, and G. A. O'Reilly, of New
York, T. C. Jackson, of the Moshan-
non National Bank, Philipsburg, gave
a report of the meeting of the federal
reserve board relations committee, of
which he is a member.
R. C. Wilson, cashier of the First
National bank, of Altoona, was elect-
ed president of the association for the
ensuing year, and John D. Meyer, of
Tyrone, was re-elected secretary and
treasurer, which will make his four-
teenth consecutive year in that office.
The roll call showed three less banks
in the group this year than last,
caused by the Beaverdale First Na-
tional taking over the People’s Deposit
bank; the United States Savings and
Trust company, of Conemaugh, tak-
ing over the Conemaugh Deposit bank,
and the First National bank, of Mill
heim, taking over the Millheim Bank-
ing company.
Wild Life Pictures to be Shown at
Moose Theatre.
A motion picture film of wild life
in Pennsylvania, taken under the di-
rection of the State Game Commis-
sion, will be shown at the Moose
Temple theatre on Friday evening,
February 25th, under the auspices of
Camp No. 176 United Sportsmen of
Pennsylvania, of Pleasant Gap. A
representative of the State Game
Commission will be present and give
an explanatory talk during the show-
ing of the picture, which will start at
10.30 p. m. .
The Pleasant Gap camp is composed
of sportsmen who have the interest of
wild game at heart. They are conserva-
tionists in every sense of the word, pro-
tecting the game during the summer
season and feeding it when the snow
lies deep on the ground in winter
time. It is because of this interest
that they have secured this remark-
able picture for one showing a{ the
Moose theatre. Everybody is invited,
and as manager Brown is giving the
theatre free there will not be any
Sports Events at State College.
The principal events in athletics
at State College for the remainder of
February will be.

urday afternoon, Feb. 26, at 2:15 and

same afternoon at 3:45 o’clock.

Did You Find Wesley’s Sample Case?
Wesley Spangler lost his sample
case last Friday and is very anxious
to recover it. It is a black box, about
one foot square containing samples of
shirting and pants fabrics. He thinks
it got away from him some where be-
tween the P. R. R. watch box on High
street and the Gazette office and if
you know where it is will you please
advise either Wesley or this office.

P. O. S. of A. Memorial Services.
Washington Camp No. 887, P. O. S.
of A., will attend the Episcopal church,
on Sunday, February 20th, at 10.45. a.
m. Rev. Kilpatrick, the pastor, will
deliver a sermon on the commemora-
tion of Washington’s birthday, the
founder of the organization. All mem-
bers are urged to convene at the G.
A. R. hall at 10.15 and march to the
church. Since this is one of the
Camp’s memorial services set forth by
the State executive committee it is
the duty of every member of the P. O.
S. of A. to arrange to attend.
a
Baseball Fans Beginning to Plan for
Summer Sport.
A few Bellefonte baseball fans held
a preliminary meeting, last Saturday
evening, and discussed plans for an-
other ball team this year. Advance
reports indicate that two organiza-
tions that had teams in the Susque-
hanna league last year will not be in
this year—Renovo and the Kew-Bees,
of Williamsport. Should this prove
to be the case it would leave only four
teams, the P. R. R., of Williamsport,
Jersey Shore, Mill Hall and Bellefonte.
An effort, however, may be made to
induce Philipsburg and Lewistown to
come in, in order to make a six team
league. There has always been con-
siderable rivalry between Philipsburg
and Bellefonte in all athletic sports
and both that town and Lewistown
would add both strength and interest
to any league that may be formed.
Isaac Walton League Wants Radical
Changes in Game Laws.
Senator Harry B. Scott has a big
job ahead of him if he undertakes to
put through the Legislature at Harris-
burg the radical changes demanded in
the fish and game laws by the DuBois
branch of the Izaak Walton league.
First, they advocate an increase in
the license for fish and small game
to $2.50 for residents and $5.00 for
non-residents; and for big game, such
as elk, deer and bear, $2.50 for resi-
dents and $25.00 for non-residents.
They also want all license fees, fines,
penalties etc., placed in a separate
fund to be used only for fish and game
propagation, and for the liquidation of
claims for damage caused by wild
game,
They also want a county game com-
mission and township boards of ap-
praisers whose duty it will be to ap-
praise all damages done by wild game
and see that the loser is properly re-
munerated.
There are various other provisions in
their demands but the very first, that
for an increase in the license fees, is
likely to kill any other good points
the bill may have. The rank and file
of the fishermen at present kick on
paying a dollar for a license and they
certainly would put up a howl if the
price were increased to $2.50.
Call for 1927 Ton Litters Sounding.
Farmers of Centre county who plan
to grow ton litters during 1927 are
now entering their nominations with
county agent R. C. Blaney. The ton
litter season opened Feb. 1. Last year
Centre county grew four of the 114
ton litters which won for Pennsylvania
supremecy among the States. Those
who grew the heavy porker families
were the Pennsylvania State College,
Claude Hoy, Bellefonte; John Thomas,
Port Matilda, and A. C. Hartle, Belle-
fonte. :
Every ton litter in Pennsylvania
during the past three years has been
produced at a profit, according to L.
C. Madison, swine extension special-
ist at State College. Last year the
average profit per litter was $198.99,
With such figures as convincing proof
and the corn-hog ratio still favorable
to pork production, many are expected
to enter nominations for ton litters
within the next few months.
Increase in the hog population of
the United States is expected soon.
There have been several seasons of
low hog production, and stockmen for-
cast an increase soon. The wise farm-
er, therefore, will take advantage of
the good prices. Ton litter produc-
tion, which has as a goal a ton of pork
per litter in 180 days, stimulates ef-
ficient feeding and marketing.
—-—Because it was her birthday an-
niversary a party of twelve of her
women friends dropped in to surprise
Mrs. Frank Galbraith, of Bishop St.
on Saturday evening. Mrs. D. Paul
Fortney arranged the affair and a very
enjoyable one it proved to be. They

Bellefonte High Defeated Houtzdale in
a Thrilling Climax.
While Philipsburg High, league
leaders, were suffering their first de-
feat of the season at the hands of Hol-
lidaysburg, Bellefonte High tossers
bettered their position in the pennant
race by virtue of a thrilling triumph
over Houtzdale. The runners-up came
to Bellefonte with a secure grip on
second place but their hold on it was
rather weak when they departed.
Coach Riden’s boys succeeded in
winning the first half by a score of |
16-15, but since it is only the final tally
that counts, they came back determin-
ed to retain the lead. The visiting
warriors had a different notion and
this slight disagreement together with
the splendid officiating of P. E. Turik,
of Carlisle, provided one of the most
exciting cage contests ever witnessed
by local fandom.
The final outcome of the battle was
not determined until the last moment.
Houtzdale was ahead much of the
second ‘half and when only a few
seconds remained it looked like a re-
verse for Bellefonte. Fortunately, ‘Les’
Shultz, who replaced Heverly when the
latter was removed on personals,
dropped through the net a spectacular
goal of the long range variety, thus
converting what looked like a 30-29 de-
feat into a.glorious 31-80 victory.
TYRONE HIGH HERE TONIGHT.
Tyrone High will be the attraction
here this (Friday) night. If the people
of Bellefonte have not realized that
they have a high school quinfet of
championship calibre, it is about time
they do. Philipsburg High, whch had ;
been at the top of the list and unde-
feated, lost last Friday to Hollidays-
burg. If the local team can maintain
its present speed there will be occasion
for another bonfire on the square. Let’s
be on deck this evening at 8 o’clock
and cheer B. H. S. to another victory.
The standing of the teams to date
is as follows:
Won Lost Persent
Philipsburg 8 1:7 "883
Houtzdale 7 2 77
Bellefonte 6 2 750
Hollidaysburg 5 3 714
Tyrone 4 4 300
Lewistown 4 5 333
