McQUISTION.—Miss Mary E. Mec-
Quistion passed away at the Clearfield
hospital, at 7 o’clock on Tuesday
evening, following an illness that
dates back for several months. She
spent the winter in California return-
ing home about the first of April. She
was so fatigued by the journey that
the day after her return she was sent
to the Centre County hospital to re-
cuperate. After spending several
weeks there she returned to her home
on west High street where she re-
mained until July 7th when she was
taken to the Clearfield hospital for
observation and a possible operation.
But she never gained sufficient
strength for the operation and her !
passing away so suddenly and unex-
| pectedly was due to pneumonia, super- ;
induced by toxic-poisoning.

Grove Mills, last Friday, as the re-
sult of a stroke of paralysis sustain-
ed two days previous.
She was a daughter of Charles and
Frederika Gummo and was born in
Buffalo Run valley on March 1st, 1857,
hence was in her seventy-first year.
Her girlhood life was spent on the
home farm but in 1876 she married
Mr. Dunlap and since then had lived
at Pine Grove Mills, where she was
loved and esteemed by all who knew
her. Her husband passed away in
1920 and since that time she had kept
the home fires burning and was noted
for her hospitality and liberality. She
was a lifelong member of the Metho-
dist church and a true christian wo-
man.
Surviving her are the following
delphia; Misses Catherine
Edythe, at home; Randall H., of
Cherry Tree; George and John C., of
Pine Grove Mills. Guy and Ralph

Preparations Under Way for the Big
Grange Encampment.
Unusual and interesting features
have been secured for the entire week
of the 1927 Grange encampment and
Centre county fair, from its beginning,
Saturday, August 27, to its close,
Thursday evening, September 1st.
The Boys’ band of Beavertown, thir-
ty four members, P. W. Freed, direct-
or, have been engaged for the week
and will render their first concert on
Grange Park, Saturday evening, Aug-
ust 27th, and the public is assured
plenty of good music, as a number of
concerts will be given daily and the
band is strongly recommended for its
{ well trained performers and ability to
entertain.

Crack Shots to be Engaged to Kill
Surplus Doe.
The State Game Commission, at a
meeting last Thursday, fell before the
avalanche of adverse public sentiment
and reversed its decision of a former
meeting declaring a week’s open sea-
son for doe deer beginning May 30th.
Hunters all over the State protested
against any general open season for
doe, as they were of the opinion that
it would not only interfere but great-
ly detract from the general hunting |
season.
The Commission, however, still
clings to the belief that there are far
too many does in the State and that
some of them ought to be killed. To
do this the Commission has decided
to enroll the services of a number of
crack shots and send them into the
districts where does are doing the
most damage with orders to thin them
| out.
Details of the plan are lacking.
How the Game Commission expects to
mobilize this volunteer force of ex-
pert deer hunters, and how to pay it
for its time and work, were not re-
vealed. The venison so shot is to be
turned over to the State, county and
municipal institutions, as heretofore,
so the venison will be no compensa-
tion for the volunteer service. Wheth- |
er a force adequate to relieve the crit-
ical situation in the central counties
. can be mobilized and manoeuvred, time
lonly will tell.
The bureaucratic trend of the new
Commission, as contrasted with the
‘democratic policy of their predeces-
sors in office, also was illustrated by
the fact that the board Thursday, by
proclamation, fixed the time limits of
the hunting seasons for next year.
Instead of from November 1 to
November 30, as the law allows, the
commission has fixed the season on
! ruffed grouse, wild turkeys, quail,
ringneck pheasants and woodcocks
at from November 1 to 15; instead of

juries as the result of being knocked
down and run over by a hit and run
driver, on the state highway in Penns-
valley, some time on Monday night.
The Gentzel family lives about mid-
‘way between Centre Hall and Spring
Mills and on Monday evening Nestor |
walked to Centre Hall, a distance of
about two miles. He was dressed in
his working clothes which would in-
dicate that he had not intended to
remain late away from home. But
he did not return that night and it
was something after eight o’clock on
Tuesday morning when he was found
{lying along the state road, about two
"hundred feet east of the lane leading
into his home, by W. Harrison Walker
Esq., who was motoring down the val-
ley on a business trip.
Mr. Walker assisted in getting a
physician and when the extent of the
young man’s injuries were ascertain-
ed he was sent to the hospital for
, surgical attention and treatment.
That he was undoubtedly struck by
an automobile was quite evident, but
how his body got so far beyond the
lane leading into his home is inex-
plicable. And how he came to lie
alongside the road until after eight
o'clock in the morning is also hard
to understand. The Pennsvalley road
is a much traveled thoroughfare and
it is only reasonable to suppose that
other cars would have passed there
before the arrival of Mr. Walker, but
if there were they failed to stop. All
evidence, however, indicated that the
accident had occurred hours before
the young man was found.

The Oldest Ford Car.
Among a list of questions and an-

“In what town and county is the
oldest Ford car?”
The answer is “Beliefonte, Centre

This evidently refers to the old red
Ford our good friend Isaac Under-
wood still trundles around town. It
is not much for looks, it hasn’t the
speed of an eight or twelve cylinder
but it gets there just the same and
Mr. Underwood would not exchange it

catches. The persistent fisherman has
i been able to make small catches from
| time to time, but the man who got the
limit in a day is a rarity. Naturally
there are trout in the streams but
they are hard to get. The average
fisherman comes home disgruntled
with his luck but long before the
opening of the season next year he
will be itching to be out and at it
again.

—Weeds must be annihilated with-
out mercy even if the weather is too
hot for comfort. If no weeds are per-
mitted to go to seed in the lawn or
garden, there will be fewer to fight
next year. The garden must be cul-
tivated thoroughly and often during
the hot, dry weather to conserve the
moisture. Cultivate after every rain
and once a week during the dry weath-
