BELLEFONTE’S BURGESS
WANTS A DOG CATCHER.
Miscellaneous Business Transacted by
Borough Council.
Just five members of borough coun-
were present at the regular meeting
on Monday evening.
Burgess Harris was present and re-
ported that he had received a com-
munication from the secretary of the
Association of Boroughs calling his
attention to the fact that the bor-
ough’s dues for 1927 had not yet been
paid. The burgess also made a plea
for an official dog catcher. He de-
clared that dogs of both sexes are
permitted to run the streets at will,
damage yards and gardens, and are
a general nuisance. He suggested as
the only lawful remedy the appoint-
ment of an official dog catcher, legally
authorized to enforce the law against
dogs running at large. President
Walker told the burgess to suggest
some boy whom he thought would be
competent and council would then
consider it.
Burgess Harris also entered a pro-
test against the placing of gasoline
tanks and pumps on Allegheny street,
in front of the Rossman garage. He
stated that not only was he opposed .
to the placing of any additional
pumps on the streets anywhere, but !
favored the removal of those now on.
He stated that in Lewistown there is
a tax of $60 a pump on every one
placed on the streets.
Mr. Harris stated that the county
commissioners are considering the
construction of a driveway in the
rear of the court house leading from
south to north east High street and
would like to have the borough co-
operate to the extent of furnishing
the road roller. The matter was re-
ferred to the Street committee.
A communication was received
from the Logan fire company recom-
mending the appointment of James
| C. Bower as a driver for the Logan
pumper to take the place of G. Max
Gamble, who is leaving Bellefonte.
Referred to the Fire and Police com-
mittee.
A communication was received from
fire marshall John J. Bower stating
that the conditions at the State high-
way barn, on Wilson street, are not
such as to constitute a fire hazard.
He admitted, however, that some of
the stuff piled there is rather un-
sightly.
Secretary Kelly read a permit is-
sued by the State bureau of fire pro-
tection to Harry A. Rossman for put-
ting down two tanks and installing
two pumps in front of his garage, on
Allegheny street; subject, of course,
to the borough’s approval. No action
was taken.
The Street committee reported pro-
gress in oiling the ‘streets and also
the receipt of $30 for a sewer permit.
The Water committee reported re-
pairing a tap at the Y. M. C. A,
cleaning the big spring and the col-
lection of $10 on the 1926 water du-
plicate and $240 on the 1927.
Mr. Cunningham called attention to
to’ the woefully inadequate condition
of the water service on north Alle-
gheny street, and outside of the bor-
ough in that section, because of the
fact that only a one inch line runs
from Curtin street north, and sug-
gested the laying of a four-inch main
pipe as far as the borough line and
also the installation of a fire plug.
It would require 700 feet of pipe and
the approximate cost would be $550.
The matter was referred to the com-
mittee to get definite bids on pipe,
ete.
The Finance committee reported a
balance in the hands of the borough
treasurer of $2469.12, and asked the
renewal of a note for $2000 and new
notes for $1000 and $800, which were
authorized.
The Sanitary committee reported
that the nuisance complained of at
the Walter Scull home has been
abated. :
Regarding the bill-board, on east
Bishop street, no person has yet been
found who admits authority for its
erection.
Bills aggregating $3400 were ap-
proved for payment after which coun-
cil adjourned.
Kindersymphony Concert Delightful
Musical Treat.
The concert given by Mrs. Louis
Schad’s Kindersymphony orchestra, in
the Episcopal parish house last
Thursday evening, was a delightful
musical treat for those who attended.
The orchestra is composed of children
seven to thirteen years of age and
that they have been trained to play
selections from some of the master
compositions speaks volumes for the
patience and persistence of their di-
rector as well as the application of
the young musicians.
While the entire program was well
rendered special mention might be
made of a waltz violin solo by Don-
ald Kerstetter, who is only seven
years old, and a piano solo by Helen
Garbrick. Twenty boys and girls
compose the orchestra, the complete
personnel being as follows:
Violin I—Herman McClure, Samuel Noll,
Isabel Jodon, Betty Casebeer, Terry Noll.
Violin II—Wilbur Badger, Clark Hile.

lin Alters, Richard Robb.

et Beaver.

NEW CASHIER FOR
FARMERS NATIONAL BANK.
Next Friday, June 1, Hayes W.
Mattern, Jr., will asume his duties as
cashier of the Farmers National Bank
of Bellefonte. H. G. Work, who has
eil, the required number for a guoram i been the cashier since the opening of
’ ’
the institution on October 1, last, will
retire to resume his connection with
the large lumber interests in Georgia
with which he has been identified for
some years.
The change in officials is merely
the completion of plans made at the
time of the organization of the new
bank when Mr. Work consented to act
as cashier for six months only, as his
other interests were such as would in-
volve too much of a sacrifice on his
part were he to give them up per-
manently.
He has served the bank through the
very arduous period of organization
and contributed largely through his
experience and innate courtesy toward
getting it into the splendid position
it is today, after little more than six
months of operation. Mr. Work will
remain in Bellefonte until July 1st,
when he will locate in the most ad-
vantageous city for the handling of
his lumber operations.
The new cashier, Mr. Mattern,
comes to the Farmers National with
the highest recommendations from
several of the foremost bankers of
Central Pennsylvania and valuable
banking experience. He is a gradu-
ate of the Pennsylvania State Col-
lege and after completion of his
course there entered the First Na-
tional Bank of that place where he
acquired a general banking knowl-
edge. Two years ago he was ap-
pointed to a position in the State De-
partment of Banking and up to the
time of his resignation to accept this
new position was one of the Pennsyl-
vania corps of bank examiners.
Mr. Mattern has rented one of the
Burnside apartments on Spring street
and will move there just as soon as
it is ready for occupancy.

Severe Rain Storm Sweeps Over
Lower Pennsvalley.
A severe rain storm swept over
lower Nittany and Pennsvalleys, on
Tuesday afternoon, spending its force
over in the Seven mountains where
reports say hail fell to a depth of
several inches. Hail also fell down
little Nittany valley, which accounts
for the cool wave of the past few
days.
The most destructive part of the
storm, however, was in lower Penns-
valley, in the locality. of Penn Hall.
There fences were blown down, ger-
dens and newly ploughed fields bad-
ly washed. On the Roland Zettle
farm a chicken coop with three hun-
dred chickens was washed away, a
hog was drowned in its pen and a
bridge over Penn’s creek was swept
off.
An automobile parked in front of
the home of Charles Shook was
washed along the road for a quarter
of a mile until it lodged against the
barn of Prof. Hosterman. At the
Charles Ulrich farm the water was
said to be four feet deep on the State
road and all the outbildings were
washed away. The total damage done
in that section will aggregate thous-
ands of dollars.
Three Prisoners Sentenced.
At a special session of court, yes-
terday morning, Charles Weber and
W. A. Springer, convicted on Monday
of attempting to break into J. C. Jo-
don’s store, were each sentenced to
pay one dollar fine, costs of prosecu-
tion and imprisonment in the western
penitentiary for not less than two nor
more than four years.
John Franklin Hall, of Hublers-
burg, adjudged guilty of making
threats, was ordered to pay the costs
and give a bond of $2000 to keep the
peace, to stand committed until the
sentence is complied with. The court
suggested that if he get a one way
ticket and leave the county, he would
consider releasing him from the fine
and costs.

—The State theatre will offer as an
attraction, next Thursday night, Jo-
seph Armstrong, of State College,
who is said to have acquired consid-
erable of a reputation as a hypnotist.
In fact he is reputed to be able to
hypnotize by telephone and also with-
out even looking at the subject. Any-
one at all interested should go to the
State next Thursday evening and see
just what Mr. Armstrong’s ability is
as a hypnotist.
—Decoration day, next week. Get a
new suit at Sim’s. New straw hats,
shirts, sox, and other dress up things,

—The Logan fire company held a
special meeting, on Monday evening,
to start the ball rolling for their big
annual picnic to be held at Hecla
park on July 4th. While Bellefonte
has no regularly organized ball team
this year the committee on sports will
endeavor to schedule a game between
two good amateur teams. "A good or-
chestra will be secured for dancing
during the afternoon and evening.
“THE MIKADO” MAKES ITS
BOW ON JUNE 4th.
Glee Club Show is a Sure Fire Hit.
The Bellefonte High school glee
club, on Monday, June 4, will present
“The Mikado,” a Japanese operetta
by Gilbert and Sullivan. Although
this is a type of musical production
never before attempted by the glee
club, all who saw “M’lle Modiste” will
agree that their organization is well
qualified to produce a play of this
type.
Gorgeous, humorous, tender, this
play has been a classic operetta for
forty years, and it is still a revela-
tion of sprightly comedy and appeal-
ing romance. It is packed with sus-
pense, beauty, and thrills—all against
the gorgeous background of a Japan-
ese palace. The play is utterly dif-
ferent from any other Japanese mus-
ical comedy and it contains no tea-
houses, chop-sticks, or rick-shaws.
The story is a tender, whimsical
romance, abounding in delicate hu-
mor and riotous comedy, skillfully
blended to keep you constantly laugh-
ing all the while you love, fear, and
sympathize with the distraught hero
and heroine.
The production is magnificent; the
settings and costumes carry you to
story-book Japan with its breath-tak-
ing beauty. Intricate dances, lovely
girls, lusty choruses, and expert prin-
cipals all combine to make this a com-
pletely delightful evening in the thea-
tre.
“M’lle Modiste” was a big success
and the club has a high mark to at-
tain. if it surpasses that, but the
cast is confident that they have a bet-
ter all-around show than its prede-
cessor. For one thing, the music
plays a more important part in this
production. The solo parts are well
sung and the large chorus which is on
stage for every number gives a vol-
ume that was entirely missing in the
“M’lle Modiste.”
The cast is largely made up of
Seniors who will make this their last
appearance, a high mark for next
vear’s players to surpass. Each part
is taken with skill by the members of
the club. Louise Tanner, Peter Meek,
William Brachbill, Louise Meyer,
Paul Crust, Dorothy Wilkinson, Don-
ald Conrad, Kathryn Bullock, Virgin-
ia Kern, Henrietta Hunter, and Wil-
liam Markley surpass any of their
previous performances and that is
saying a lot.
All in all, “The Mikado” is one of
the most delightful productions ever
to be seen in Bellefonte and it should
not be missed. It will be presented at
a matinee and an evening perform-
ance on Monday, June 4. Further
announcements will be made in this
paper next week.
