PATTON TOWNSHIP CASE
IN COURT ON MONDAY.
Patton township residents appear-
ed in full force before his Honor,
Judge Furst, in court on Monday,
witnesses pro and con in the celebrat-
ed case of the supervisors of that
baliwick against the auditors in an
action to compel them to approve a
bill of $610 for the erection of a
township building.
The supervisors are John Hartsock,
A. C. Thomas and J. W. Blair and the
auditors against whom action was
brought, Harry Carson and Frank
Hull.
The case dates back to early in
1925 when the supervisors decided to
erect a town: hip building. They pur-
chased a plot of ground at Waddle
and on it erected a one story frame
building, 14 by 16 feet in size, which
they averred could be used for storage
purposes for the township’s stone
crusher and other roadmaking im-
plements, and also as a place for
holding the township elections.
When the supervsors announced
their purpose of erecting the building
some of the tax-payers voiced a pro-
test and in order to give it legal
status the auditors circulated a peti-
tion of protest, securing thereto the
names of more than 180 taxpayers
and voters out of a total of 206. Ac-
cording to the evidence submitted at
the hearing on Monday, that notwith-
standing this petition, the supervisors
went ahead and erected the building
and it stands there today, though it
has never been used.
When the township auditors audit-
ed the accounts for 1925, they not
only surcharged to the supervisors
the bill of $610, the cost of the build-
ing, but refused to pass a bill for
$175 paid by the supervisors for
scraping township roads and covering
them with ashes. In court, on Mon-
day, the auditors testified that they
offered as a compromise to allow the
supervisors $100 on the bill of $175,
but they refused to accept a portion
of it, so they surcharged the entire
amount.
As stated above, the case was orig-
inally brought in 1925 and various
dates had been set to take testimony
but something always turned up and
the case was postponed from time to
time, so that Monday was the first
time it really got before the court.
Of course the supervisors, who are
represented by Spangler & Walker,
had a number of witnesses to prove
their justification in erecting the
building as well as fixing the town-
ship road with ashes, while the case
of the defendant auditors, represent-
ed by. W. D. Zerby, was also well sup-
ported by the testimony of quite a
number of taxpayers who were op-
posed to the erection of the township
building at that time, and who also
condemned the practice of using coal
ashes to make good roads.
But the matter is now up to Judge
Furst, who will in due time hand
down a deeision, one way or the other.
AR a AE
Grand Jury Returns Twenty-five True
Bills, Ignores Four. :
In accordance with Judge Furst’s
recent promulgation the grand jury
for the May sessions of court met on
Monday. Mrs. M. H. Brouse, of Belle-
fonte, was appointed foreman, and in
making the appointment the court
stated that she had the honor of be-
ing the first woman to act in that
capacity in the history of Centre
county, and that she had been select-
ed not only because she was qualified
to fill the position but as a recogni-
tion of the public service she has ren-
dered this community in many ways.
Thirty-one bills were presented the
jury for action, two of which were
withdrawn and four ignored. True
bills found included the following:
Julia Grove, assault and battery and
malicious mischief,
Henry Sents, Jr., involuntary man-
slaughter,
Henry Sents, Jr., operating a motor
vehicle while under the influence of
liquor.
Floyd Johnstonbaugh, adultery,
1 B. H. Savercool, violation of auto
aws.
John Kisinsky, violation of liquor
laws.
George McCloskey, assault and bat-
tery with intent to ravish,
Burton Towery, assault and bat-
tery.
William
auto laws.
Victor Devlin, F. and B.
Samuel Cartright, breaking, enter-
ing and larceny.
James Harris,
slaughter.
Benjamin Fink,
McClellan, violation of
involuntary man-
Harold Stanton,
John Shay, Mary Liner, Mrs. William
Watts, Daniel Straw, Marcella Beals
50d Howard Walk, violation of liquor
aws.
In its final report the grand jury |
criticised the uncleanliness of the
court house, recommended that the
exterior wood work of the jail be re-
painted, recommended that the living
room be divided and one part used as
an office while the present office be
converted into space for female pris-
oners, and suggested other repairs
and improvements. A thorough reno-
vation and cleaning of the court house
was also recommended.

BIG WELFARE LUNCHEON
HELD AT BUSH HOUSE.
All welfare organizations in Centre
county were represented at a big wel-
fare luncheon held at the Bush house,
at noon Monday, May 2nd, at which
the work in Centre county was out-
lined by various representatives of
the different societies, etc. The mee:-
ing was the culmination of an eight
weeks survey of conditions in the
county made by Miss C. T. Adams, of
Pittsburgh, a state worker for the
Children’s Aid society of the western
district of Pennsylvania.
Judge James C. Furst presided at
the luncheon and pledged his efforts
and support to the good work. Other
speakers were Mrs. John S. Walker,
representing the mothers’ assistance
work; Mrs. R. S. Brouse, the county
Children’s Aid society; Rev. R:ed O.
Steely, the juvenile court; Mrs. Ebon
B. Bower, the work of the Woman's
Auxiliary of the Centre County hos-
pital; Dr. J. L. Seibert, the State
board of health; W. Harrison Walker
Esq., the work that is being done for
the undeveloped child; Mrs. W. F.
standard of former years. The first
part will be the regular old fashioned
minstrels, with catchy music, clever '
jokes, artful dancing, and tuneful
ballads and, choruses. >
The second part will be a real Keith
vaudeville. Miss Thelma Williams, a
Centre county girl, who was selected
to enter the National beauty contest
last summer at Atlantic City, as
“Miss Pittsburgh”, has contracted
with Headmaster Hughes to appear
in her “beauty” stunt. She should
be greeted with a crowded house.
Other communities are giving her
worthy ovations. Kennedy, Runkle,
Farley and Fisher, stars of State Col-
lege Thespians, will give clever song
and dancing stunts. Herbert Beezer
and Joe DeLallo in wonderful exhibi-
tions of the terpsichorian art. Doc
O’Dea, of Scranton, a remarkable
whistler, has promised to entertain
the audience and that means much.
The opening scene representing the !
air plane crash and the dropping to
earth of the ends imported from New ,
Orleans will be a “hair raiser.” This :
will likely prove the most thrilling |
part of the program. It will be worth '
the price of admission.

store, Monday, May 16th, at 10 a.

street parade at 5.30 Thursday after-

Barrymore in ‘Don Juan’ at Cathaum,
State College.
What has been acclaimed by critics
everywhere as one of the most nota-
ble photoplays ever produced will be
shown at the Cathaum theatre, State
College, next Thursday and Friday,
May 19 and 20. It is “Don Juan,” in
which John Barrymore has the out-
standing role of his brilliant stage
and screen career.
In “Beau Brummel,” “The Sea
Beast,” “The Beloved Rogue,” and
other great pictures, Barrymore has
firmly established himself as the
screen’s greatest actor. The story of
“Don Juan” is founded upon the
legend of the greatest lover of all the
ages, and it has back of it a three-
hundred year tradition that has in-
spired poets, dramatists, musicians
and artists.
Barrymore fairly revels in the
silken fascinations of the role of the
greatest romatic lover. Amid scenes
that range from an old Moorish castle
in Spain to the glorious pageantry of
Rome, he finds the beautiful ladies of
his heart’s desire, and loves them ex-
quisitely. The picture is alive with
flashing action and one of the great- |
est casts ever assembled supports
Barrymore.
There will be a matinee on Thurs-
day, starting at two o’clock, and the
evening showings will begin at six.

“The Girl From Child's.”
Lots of laughs, lots of love, a bit
of drama and a tear now and then.
Add to this originality, a strong plot
that catches you the very first minute
and keeps you interested to the very
end, and you have some idea of the
reason why “The Girl From Child's”
has been a success from one end of
the country to the other.
This slashing, smashing comedy-
drama by Archie Colby is now being
presented at the Moose theatre, Belle-
fonte, by the Ella Kramer company.
This is one of the finest plays that
ever came off Broadway and is be-
ing given by this well known com-
pany at the low admission prices of
25 and 50 cents.
