The Stover family reunion was
— | held, on Sunday, at the home of Mr.
and Mrs.. John Stover, at State Col-
The big dinner, to which all
Snow Shoe Reservoir Not Considered present contributed, was the principal
Dangerous.
Complaint was made to the Public
Service Commission, last week, that
the dam at the No. 1 reservoir of the
Snow Shoe Water company was leak-
ing and in a dangerous condition. The
complaint was made by the superin-
tendent of the company in connection
with the filing of a petition for an in-
crease in rates for water service. The
petition set forth that to make the
hecessary repairs will entail an ex-
pense of approximately $33,900, and
to meet the interest on this expendi-
ture will require an additional in-
come of $2,810.
On Saturday morning two engi-
neers of the State water power and
resources board, in company with
Thomas Caldwell, J. M. Cunningham
and O. J. Harm drove to Snow Shoe
to make an examination of the reser-
voir. The latter is located on the up-
per reaches of Beech Creek, about

two miles and a half from Snocw Shoe. |
‘The breast of the dam is some fifty |
or sixty feet long and about six feet |
in height. It is constructed of ma-
sonry and concrete and is five feet
thick. There was a small leak at one
end of the dam, but it was of minor
importance and, after making a thor-
ough examination, the engineers de-
cided that the dam is in no danger of
giving away.
The main trouble is that the town
is a little short of water protection.
An eight inch pipe runs from the
reservoir for a distance of about a
mile, where it connects with a six
inch pipe which runs to the town, a
distance of a mile and a half. As wa-
ter protection the town now has a
dozen or more fire hydrants, which
are not deemed sufficient, but they are
all the present supply of water will
justify. The citizens are clamoring
for better protection and the only
way to give it to them is to lay a new
pipe line. As the distance is two
miles and a half it will mean the ex-
penditure of a considerable sum of
money, and the company wants an in-
crease in rates to justify the expendi-
ture.

Two Centre Countians Get Degrees at
State College.
At the fifth annual summer session
commencement held at State College,
last Thursday, two Centre eountians
were among the 111 young men and
women to be awarded degrees. They
were:
Carl J. Gray, son of Oscar Gray
of west High street, Bellefonte, who
received his bachelor of science de-
gree in the curriculum in electrical en-
gineering of the School of Electrical
Engineering, was a member of the
college band and college orchestra
during his four years at Penn State.
Ralph H. Carter, son of Alvin M.
Carter, of State College, received a
degree in bachelor of science in the
agricultural biochemistry curriculum
in the School of Agriculture. He is
a member of the Liebig Chemical So-
ciety.

July, a Pittsburgh publication, de-
votes almost three pages to a story
of Bellefonte’s big spring and pump-
ing station. The article is illustrated
with pictures of James D. Seibert,
water commissioner, the big spring
and exterior and interior views of the
pumping station. The article was a

_ Stover Family Reunion Held at State NEW DEER LICENSES
READY ON SEPT. 1
As a result of the opinion recently
given the Game Commission by the
Attorney General’s Department to
the effect that it is necessary to have
a special deer licenses, costing $2, to
hunt for antlerless deer during the
season of 1928, the Game Commission
outlined its policy for the distribution
of these licenses.
Immediately upon receipt of the
Attorney General’s opinion, the Game
Commission stopped, temporarily, the
issuance of resident hunters’ licenses
in every county of the Comomnwealth.
This was done in order to be fair to
those hunters who had already secured
i their regular licenses, and who were,
up to that time, of the opinion that
such regular licenses would permit
them to kill a deer. Hunters who do
not desire to hunt deer this year un-
der present conditions may return
their regular licenses to the county
treasurer who issued it, and their
license fee will be returned. Such
licenses need not be returned in case
the owner desires to hunt only for
small game.
BEGIN RE-ISSUANCE.
Persons desiring to hunt deer this
year who have not as yet secured
their resident Xunter’s license may
now obtain it. No special deer li-
cense will be granted to anyone not
possessed of a regular resident hunt-
er’s license. Since the special deer
licenses and applications will not be
in the hands of the county treasur-
ers until about September 1, it will
be permissible to submit applications
for such licenses on plain paper, giv-
ing post office address, occupation,
age, height, color of hair, color of
eyes, resident hunter’s license num-
ber. Such applications will be filed in
the office of the county treasurer in
the order in which they are received
so as to give each hunter an equal
chance to secure a license.
Special deer licenses are good only
in the county in which they are is-
sued. Should a person, upon mak-
ing application to a county treas-
urer, find that the quota of licenses
for that district has been filled there
is nothing to prevent him from mak-
ing application in another county. Re-
gardless of the number of licenses
which one person may secure, he will
be permitted to kill only one antlerless
deer during the season. The matter
of the camp limit for deer will be
eliminated for the season of 1928,
each member being permitted to kill
one deer. Non-residents will not be
permitted to hunt deer in Pennsyl-
vania this year.
Persons who reside upon or culti-
vate lands within the Commonwealth
who wish to kill deer may hunt on
such lands free of charge. They will
be furnished with special free deer li-
censes upon application made direct to
game protector in the county in which
they reside.
Must Report All Accidents.
Motorists who injure or kill cows,
pigs, sheep or horses valued at $50 or
more will have to file accident re-
ports, according to an opinion given
the bureau of motor vehicles, Penn-
sylvania department of highways, by
William A. Reiter, the bureau attor-
ney. Mr. Reiter's ruling is as follows:
“Animals, such as cows, pigs, sheep
and horses are personal property and
come within the term property dam-
age. Consequently, accidents involv-
ing such animals where the damage
amounts to an apparent extent of $50
or more should be reported to this
bureau, as required by Section 1030.
This, however, does not apply in the
case of dogs.
“It is impossible to stipulate a gen-
eral rule where all cases involve ani-
mals, as each case will have to be de-
termined on its own merits.”

ALASKA AIR SERVICE
COVERS 300,000 MILES.
Three hundred thousand miles
of flying 1,000 passengers and
30,000 pounds of freight transport-
ed by air without loss or in-
jury. This record, which might be
notable if made on a regular run in a
temperate climate with full airport
and emergency landing racilities, was
reported recently by George E. King
Airplane corporation.
Fairbanks City in Alaska is near
the center of that supposedly frigid
territory; and it was in Alaska, with
its jagged mountains, white in winter,
its rivers of ice and its barren snow
blanketed tundra, that this human |
and mechanical accomplishment was
made, sometimes in a temperature of
50 degrees blow zero.

tion has been operating a flying serv-'

til now its equipment has been one
Fokker with a B. M. W. motor and
King or Crosson or Carl Eilson, fa-
mous Arctic flyer and chief pilot of
the company, will take him to his des-
tination in seven and one-half hours.
A remote prospector whose pay
claims may have a considerable quan-
tity of placer gold and none of the
things it will buy. An airplane takes
the gold to Fairbanks or Juneau and
birngs back supplies in exchange or
banks the gold. Business men who
' need to go from point to point now
and Joseph Crosson, of the Fairbanks |
go by plane. Trappers make use of
it not only to transport themselves
but their valuable mink and silver fox
pelts. During the months when fur
is being sent south for the Christmas
trade, air transport is of great value
to trappers. If they cannot deliver
their bags to market in time for the
busy season they lose money.
Elevated Speedway Cost $50,000,000.
A 50,000,000 double-decked steel
and concrete elevated roadway,
stretching between Atlantic City and
Philadelphia, will be under construc-
tion by the middle of August.
The roadway, it is reported, will
room for pilot and six passengers, one be built by the Pennsylvania Rail-
Hispano-Suiza Swallow for pilot and road and other interests, and will re-
two passengers, and J. N. 4 D. of the | place the electric lines now operating

of pilot and one passenger.
Seven months of the year the
planes are equipped with skis. The
rest of the year being mild, wheel
landing gear is used. Except for twe
weeks during the spring when the
snow is melting, flying is continuous.
Most of the year there is good visibil-
ily and little fog or sleet, two of the
greatest menaces to aviation. The
longest of the hops is about 600 miles.
So far no regular schedules have
been adhered to. King says that
users of air transportation in Alaska
calculated that journeys which by
other available means of transit
would take a week could be covered
in an hour by air. The rate has been
$1 a mile.
“It costs just about as much to
travel by dog sled,” King added, ‘af-
ter paying for dogs, supplies, the out-
fit and for the guide. The cost is the
same by air, but days or weeks of
time are saved.”
The commerce peculiar to the coun-
|
It is to be
70 feet wide and have three traffic
lanes on each of the two decks.
The first deck of the roadway will
be used by the railroad for a new
high-speed combined gas and electric
car. Ramps will be built to the deck
for these cars at Woodbury, Glass-
boro, Newfield, Mays Landing and
Pleasantville.
The upper deck will be used for
automobile traffic only. Private and
passenger automobiles will be charg-
ed toll, but will be granted the privi-
lege of using the company garage {o

said, will be the largest of its kind in
the world.
