‘tle Miss is Mr. and Mrs. Montgom-
«ery’s second daughter and fourth
«child.
—On Monday morning thermome-
‘ters in Bellefonte fell to twenty de-
£rees abeve zero. Fortunately the cola
‘weather all through March and the
«arly part of April has so retarded
“the fruit buds that it is hardly likely
any damage was done.
—At the annual meeting of the
Pennsylvania club of Colorado, held in
Denver last week, the Rev. Wilson P.
Ard was chosen a member of the
“board of directors. The Hon. Freder-
ick A. Godcharles, librarian of Penn-

‘tion Army hall, in the Schlow build-

~_ —A son was born to Mr. and Mrs.
-James Klump, of Philadelphia, and is
‘no doubt a particularly welcome
‘guest, being the first grandchild and
‘only boy in the William S. Furst fam-
ily. The child is a great-grandson of
Mrs. Austin O. Furst, of west Linn
-street, and his mother is well known
‘in Bellefonte, through her many vis-

‘teresting features will be announced
in due time.
—Manager Hall, of the Western
Union Telegraph company, has
emerged from darkness into light.
‘The Bellefonte office is located in the
Bush house block and the only light
for years was from a small bay win-
«dow and a light in the upper half of
the door. In fact it was so dark in
the rear part of the room that it was
necessary to work by artificial light
all the time. But last week W. J.
‘Emerick, owner of the property, had
‘the bay window removed and the
: space almost doubled in size, and now
with a big plate glass window there
- "is ample light.
—As it looks now politics is back of
* the failure to date in making the ap-
pointment of vocational director of
{ Centre county to fill the vacancy
«caused by the resignation of John B.
.Payne two months ago. There were
:at that time three applicants for the
‘position, two of whom live in Centre
county and the other in the western
part of the State. The State Board
of Education suggested to county su-
perintendent F. Glenn Rogers a prep-
osition that the board submit to him
#wo names and permit him to select
«one of the two to which he agreed.
‘But when the proposition came to him
‘in ‘writing it contained two names all
‘right, but’ strongly intimated which
one he would have to select to win
the board’s approval. As this left
the county superintendent no choice
‘in the matter he has so far declined
#0 make a recommendation.
One Sunday Train to be Taken Off Borough Council Holds Brief Session Freezing Weather Badly Handicapped
Bald Eagle Valley.
In the new schedule which the
Pennsylvania Railroad company is ar-
ranging for the summer season, and
28th, the morning train from Tyrone
to Lock Haven, at 9.40 o’clock and !
the afternoon train west at 3.20
o’clock will ba dropped. The morning
train west, the Lehigh, both east and
west and the night train east will be
continued in service. The above
trains will be cancelled on Sunday,
only, and will run on week days as
usual.
The Philadelphia and New York
newspapers, as well as the eastern
mail, now brought to Bellefonte on
the 9.40 train will be shifted to the
P. and E. at Harrisburg and will
reach Bellefonte on the train from
Lock Haven, arriving here at 9.08, or
half an hour earlier than at present.
The Pittsburgh Sunday papers and
western mail will not reach Bellefonte
until the arrival of the Lehigh ex-
press at 1.20 p. m. :
Up to the present time there has
been no ruling against the Pennsy’s
proposition to take off one train on
the Lewisburg branch—the one that
leaves Bellefonte at 6 o’clock in the
morning and returning arrives here !
at 4.20 in the afternoon. If the aban-
donment of this train is permitted by
the Public Service Commission pas-
senger, express and mail service on
the Lewisburg branch will be restrict-
ed to one train a day each way, the
one now arriving in Bellefonte at
9.15, and which will leave here on the
return trip shortly after ten o’clock
a. m., in order to pick up the milk
cars along the road and get them to
the main line about four hours earlier
than they do now.
Anticipating that the Pennsy will
be permitted to drop this train the
Postoffice Department has already
taken steps to take care of the mail
facilities to and from State College.
The department is now advertising
for a carrier on a star route between
Bellefonte and State College for two
round trips a day. As proposed the
carrier is to leave Bellefonte at 5.45
o'clock a. m. with the mail which
comes to Bellefonte on the night train
and sent to Lemont on the early train
on its way to the College. At the
College the carrier will receive the
mail for Bellefonte brought to that
place by the carrier from Tyrone,
The second trip will be made after
the arrival in Bellefonte of the Le-
high express at 1.20, taking up the
mail brought here for the College on
that train. This will give the College
about as good mail facilities as it has
at present.
Pennsvalley, however, wil not be so
fortunate, as residents there will be
limited to one mail a day each way,
unless the Postoffice Department steps
in and starts a star route through
that valley.
If one train is taken off the Lewis-
burg it will also mean the curtail-
ment of the clerical force at some of
the stations along the line.
es
Railroad Hearing to be Resumed in
Bellefonte Next Monday.
~ The railroad hearing which was ad-
journed on April 5th, after being in
session here two days; will be re-
sumed at the court house, Bellefonte,
at 9.30 o’clock next Monday morning,
before Public Service Commissioner
Charles Young and with all the law-
vers and experts in attendance.
An effort had been made by some-
body to have the adjourned hearing
held in Harrisburg, and Monday of
this week had been set as the time,
but through an order from the Inter-
state Commerce Commission the date
was changed to next Monday and the
place Bellefonte.
When the meeting adjourned on
April 5th it was stated that there
were still a list of ten or more wit-
nesses to hear in the interest of the
Bellefonte Central Railroad company,
after which the Pennsylvania will be
heard. After that the Bellefonte Cen-
tral will have the right to present
testimony in rebuttal, if it so desires.

Baseball Season in Bellefonte Will
Open Tomorrow.
The Bellefonte Academy will open
the baseball season in Bellefonte with
a game on Hughes field tomorrow
(Saturday) at 2.30 p. m., with the
strong Juniata Y, M. C. A. nine.
Most of the visiting team are players
of several years’ reputation and put
up a splendid game. Because of this
fact tomorrow’s contest will be worth
seeing. The Academy boys have been
practicing for several weeks and are
in good shape. Vavra and Susce
compose a strong battery and will be
in the box for the Academy. Go out
and see the opener.

Joseph Thomas Buys Robert Roan
Candy and Cigar Store.
The deal was closed, on Tuesday
evening, whereby Joseph Thomas be-
came the purchaser of Robert Roan’s
candy and cigar store, over the race
near the railroad. Mr. Roan was
compelled to sell because the business
had become so exacting that his
health was near the breaking point.
For a time, at least, he will devote
his time to his taxi business. The
sale became effective Wednesday
morning.

| regular meeting of borough council on
i Monday evening. Secretary W. T.
| of the State Association of Boroughs
stating that the annual convention,
this year will be held at Hanover,
June 10th to 12th, inclusive.
The Street committee reported min-
or repairs on various streets and the
collection of $30 for a sewer permit.
The Water committee reported a
few repairs and the collection of $26.-
25 on the 1926 water tax duplicate
and $648.75 on the 1927.
The Finance committee reported a
the renewal of a note for $1000,
which was authorized.
The committee recommended that
the tax millage for 1928 be fixed at
the same rate as last year—10 mills
for street purposes, 10 for borough
and 5 for interest.
Frederick Reynolds, of the Town
Improvement committee, recommend-
ed that a permit be granted the H. A.
Rossman garage for the erection of
the corner of Allegheny and Howard
streets; the proposed new portion to
face on Howard street and to be as
near fireproof as possible. The com-
mittee also recommended that a per-
mit be granted James McCullough
for the erection of a house on Half-
moon Hill, at a cost of approximately
$2000, and both recommendations
were approved by council.
Chairman Brouse, of the Street
committee, stated to council that in-
asmuch as no top dressing had been
town last summer, quite a number of
them are badly in need of an oil
dressing, and he read a list of those
the committee recommended for re-
pairs. To do the work right will
probably require three tanks of oil
and the work should be done as early
in May as possible. The matter was
referred to the committee with power.
As there has been a vacancy on the
board of trustees for the Pruner or-
phanage since the death of the late
Claude Cook, president Walker ap-
pointed Hard P. Harris a member of
the board, and the appointment was
approved by council.
The Finance committee reported
that the sinking fund in the hands of
ex-borough treasurer E. J. Gehret,
amounting to a little over $70,000; had
been checked up by the borough au-
ditors and turned over to treasurer
J. L. Carpeneto, and recommended
that the former treasurer be relieved
of his bond, and council so voted.
Bills approximating $2300 were ap-
proved for payment after which coun-
cil adjourned.
Farmers’ Mutual Forging Ahead.
The Farmers’ Mutual Fire Insur-
ance Co., of Centre county, recently
held what in insurance parlance is
called the largest meeting it has ever
held.
In the minds of the directors who
guide this carefully managed local
insurance company a meeting is
guaged by the amount of insurance
that has been written for the preced-
ing interim.
At the last meeting, held in the
court house here, one half million
new business was offered for approv-
al. That means that since the first
of January the Farmers’ Mutual has
increased its business by five hundred
thouzand dollars.
Safe and sound procedure will make
a success of any undertaking and that
is why those who can get in are plac-
ing their business with the Farmers’
Mutual. It doesn’t solicit risks and it’s
hard to get the company to take them,
but that’s the reason -it has been so
successful. (
“Touring Europe by Bicycle,” and
Then to Hublersburg.
Prof. J. Harold Engle, of Juniata
college, will present his illustrated
travellogue of France, Germany, It-
aly, and Belgium, entitled, “Touring
Europe by Bicycle,” in the Walker
township community hall, at Hublers-
burg, Tuesday evening, April 24th, at
8 p. m. Prof. Engle was overseas
during the World war and attended
the American Legion convention at
Paris last summer. Thus he will
speak chiefly from his own experi-
ences. School children will find the
lecture helpful in the European his.
tory and study of geography, The
school orchestra, directed by Prof.
Cyrus Hoy, under whose auspices the
travellogue is being given, will ren-
der several musical selections,
Seed Oats.
Farmers who are desirous of hav-
ing tested seed oats of a variety that
yields abundantly are advised that C.
Y. Wagncr and Co. have just received
a car load of Ohio seed oats which
they are selling at 85 cents a bushel.
Those not sure of the healthiness
of their seed and those who feel that
it is desirable to make a change in
their variety are advised that this
seed is of a very high quality.
—Mr. and Mrs. William Schrimer,
of Cleveland, Ohio, have announced
the marriage of their daughter, Ag-
nes Cecilia, to Mr. Joseph J. Lose.
The wedding was solemnized in the
Our Lady of Peace church, in Cleve-
land, on Wednesday morning, April
18. The groom is the only son of the
late Joseph and Bridget Curry
Lose, formerly of Bellefonte, and a
grandson of Mrs. Mary Lose, of Bish-
op street.
Seven members were present at the '
balance of $6888.53 in the hands of
the borough treasurer and asked for |
an addition to the present building on
applied to any of the streets in the .
the Opening of Fishing Season.
With the thermometer standing at
twenty degrees above zero, on Mon-
day. morning, overcoats and mittens
“| which will become effective A pril|Kelly read a notice from the secretary were in demand by those brave
enough to venture out at a try for the
speckled beauties on the first morn-
_ing of the trout fishing season. Aside
i from the cold weather conditions were
not at all favorable. The recent hard
rains left the water in all the streams
high and murky, so that fly-casting
was impossible on any save the
! mountain streams.
The increase in the cost of fisher-
men’s licenses probably had some ef-
| fect on the crowd, as only 1525 li-
censes were granted by county treas-
urer Lyman L. Smith up to Monday
morning, which was only about half
| as many as were issued last year by
{ the opening of the season.
But whatever the cause, not half
the usual number of fishermen were
in evidence on either Logan’s branch
or Spring creek. And the number of
trout caught was far below the aver-
age. Benjamin Bradley, fishing in
‘Spring creek, north of Bellefonte
landed five nice-sized ones. Charles
Brachbill got three and had to work
hard to land those, but many others
did not get any. :
The best catch made on Logan's
branch was by Frank Gross, who land-
ed 20. Policeman Harry Dukeman
got 18 on the same stream and Harry
Monsell 5; Patsy Bathurst caught 14
on Spring creek and a Millheim man
claimed to have caught 10 on the
‘same stream. An unknown fisherman
caught a 20-inch brown trout on
Spring creek, which was the largest
fish taken during the day.
Willis Shuey and son, who know
every trout hole in Spring creek,
caught 22, Dr. J. J. Kilpatrick, one of
the luckiest fishermen in Bellefonte,
landed 20. Joe Thal brought home 15
and Charles Anderson 14. Paul Haag
caught 12 during the snow storm on
Tuesday morning and Vincent Bauer
3. Clarence G. Harper came here
from Lynn, Mass., for a little fishing
and the first two days landed 9, two
of them measuring 17 inches each. ;
Down on Fishing creek J. M. Cun-
ningham enticed eight into his basket
through the bait route, and a number
of other fishermen caught two and
three each, on bait, but so far as
could be learned not a trout was
caught on fly. And practically all the
trout caught on bait were taken be-
fore eight o’clock in the morning.
For a week or more prior to the
opening of the season the Potter-Hoy
Hardware company had on display in
their store window a creel and a rod
and line, the creel to be given as a
prize to the fisherman who reported
the largest catch, by weight, Monday
evening, and the rod and line a prize
to the fisherman who reported the
biggest trout. Not a man reported to
claim either prize, which would ap-
pear to indicate that no one made a
catch big enough to brag about. As
the prizes were not claimed up to the
+ time the store closed on Monday even-
ing they were withdrawn.
Morton Smith Wins Troop B Trip to
France.
O. P. Morton Smith, assistant post-
master of Bellefonte, and sergeant in
Troop B, mounted machine gun Bat.,
was selected by vote of the troop of-
ficers, on Sunday, as the troop’s rep-
resentative in the escort of honor to
attend the dedication of the Pennsyl-
vania monuments on the battlefields
of France on May 29th and 30th.
A recent act of the Legislature
created the Pennsylvaniaa Memorial
association and made an appropria-
tion sufficient for the erection of suit-
able monumets on the battlefields in
France on which Pennsylvania sol-
diers played an active part. These
monuments will be completed by the
latter part of May, when they will be
properly dedicated. Naturally the
War Memorial association will go in
a body and the State authorized the
selection of one man from each unit
in the National Guard to accompany
the members of the association as a
guard of honer.
Each soldier will be equipped with
two tailor-made uniforms, one of
woolen and the other of cotton, as
well as all other necessary clothing,
and all his expenses will be paid from
the time he leaves his home unit until
he returns. While overseas the men
will also be taken on a trip to all
the important battlefields, with visits
to Paris, London, Rome, Monte Carlo
and Brussels. :
Sergeant Smith, who by the way is
the father of Ralph T. Smith, present
captain of the troop, has served sev-
en years as a member of the organi-
zation and is credited with a one
hundred per cent attendance. He won
the trip to France for having enlisted
the largest number of men in the
troop.
According to the present schedule
the sergeant will leave Bellefonte on
May 13th for Philadelphia where the
escort of honor will spend a week in
intensive training before proceeding
to New York for embarkation on the
U. S. ship George Washington which
will sail on the 19th for France. Ac-
cording to the present program they
are scheduled to land in the United
States on their return trip on June
16th.

en weeks during the winter with illness
and, although he has not entirely recov-

enjoyed the change. He has just sold his
last farm and in the future will not be
worried about looking after it, as he has
been for several years past because of his
inability to get a regular tenant.
