Included in the business transacted was a conference author- | ization for the sale of three unused churches—those at Sugar Valley, Millmont and Centre Hall Included in the conference pas- torate changes was the transfer of Rev. Reed O. Steely from Bellefonte to Milton. He will go to a congre- gation of nearly six hundred mem- bers. At the present time they are in the midst of a large building program involving an expenditure of about $150,000, which he will have to carry through to completion. Succeeding Rev. Steely at the Belle- fonte church will be Rev. S. S. Mum- ey, who was transferred here from Northumberland. He will come here with the ripe experience of thirty- five years’ service in the ministry. For a number of years he was a mem- ber of the Oregon conference, where he also filled the position of presiding elder. Some years age he went to the Evangelical home, at Lewisburg, as superintendent of the orphanage. where he remained until four years ago when he was assigned to the Nor- thumberland church. The Bellefonte congregation has been signally hon- ored in being assigned a man of this type. The former Nittany charge was split up and a portion of it was as- signed to the Howard charge with the balance placed under the Lock Haven circuit. The Centre Hall and Spring Mills charges were also merged and will be served by Rev. W. E. Smith. Rev. T. R. Hussler was moved from Howard to Lock Haven, while Rev. W. E. Yingling was transferred from the Lock Haven circuit to Howard. Rev. W. E. Grove was moved from Clintondale to Williamsport and Rev. C. E. Hewitt continued at State Col- lege.

U. room, with a membership of 41 mothers, and one honorary member, Miss Cross, the lo- cal community nurse. Mrs. Alma F. Caskey, national organizer, presided. A three year study course is pro- vided whereby the modern mothers can prepare themselves to better cope with the daily problems which confront them. It is a recognized fact today that motherhood is the great- est profession in the world, and moth- ers should be better trained in order to impart to the children those things which will make them better citizens of tomorrow. This league attempts to do this, through its study course and the exchange of experiences, ' The following officers were elected to serve one year: President, Mrs. Robert Thena; vice president, Mrs. Russel Stein; secretary, Mrs. Earle Hoffer; treasurer, Mrs. James Craig; press reporter, Mrs, Leif Olsen; di- rector for bureau exchange, Mrs. Mil- lard Hartswick.

The first step they urge in this direction is to consult your doctor if you have the faintest symptoms of the disease. If taken in time tuberculosis is not an incurable disease, by any means. —The people of Milesburg and vi- cinity were accorded an evening of rare pleasure recently when Mrs. Bess Stroupe McClure, of Indiana, Pa., gave an entertainment in the Pres- byterian church at that place.
