Great Bible Expositors to Attend
Moody Institute at Eagle’s Mere.
An impressive array of speakers is
announced for the annual Bible con-
ference to be held at the hotel Ray-
mond, Eagles Mere, Pa., August 25th
to September 2nd. For many years
the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago
has been conducting this conference
and has presented on its programs 2a
long list of distinguished teachers and
preachers from this and other lands.
The many friends of the Rev. D. H.
Dolman, D. D., of Wandsbek, Ger-
many, will be gratified that he has
been secured as one of the principal
speakers. His visits in recent years
to American Bible conferences have
endeared “Pastor” Dolman to a host
of people who have only to know that
he will appear to insure eager visits to
hear him. Dr. Dolman is a Holland-
er, a minister of the Church of Eng-
land engaged for many years in its
mission among the Jews of Germany,
editor of “Israel’s Hoffnung” and a
valued speaker at the great Keswick
conferences in England.
The Rev. Leander S. Keyser D. D.,
the noted professor of the Lutheran
Divinity school at Springfield, Ohio,
is another most welcome conference
speaker who will be at Eagles Mere.
To the discussion of present day per-
plexing Bible questions Dr. Keyser
brings a clarifying convincing mes-
sage.
Rev. S. Edward Lon, D. D., of
Chicago, an outstanding Bible ex-
positor possessing marked mental and
spiritual gifts, has been added to the
staff of field lecturers of the Institute
and will deliver a series of studies
and addresses at the Eagles Mere
conference.
Alaskan Reindeer Meat Rich in Pro-
tein.
To determine the value of Alas-
kan reindeer meat for food, samples
have been officially tested recently
for chemical composition and nutri-
tive value. It was found to possess
high protein, low fat, and compara-
tively low moisture. The test is val-
uable in connection with the com-
mercial introduction into the United
States of reindeer as an article of
food, as well as for the information
of Alaskan natives, for whom rein-
deer meat provides a staple article
of food.
Two departments of the Govern-
ment are cooperating in the study,
and the analyses and experiments fol-
lowed a meeting in Washington be-
tween representatives of several bu-
reaus of the Department of Agricul-
ture and a representative of the De-
partment of the Interior, Bureau of
Education, the governmental agency
charged with the promotion of the
reindeer industry in connection with
the educational work among Alaskan
natives. Further experiments will be
conducted and the results of the com-
pleted study will be incorporated in
a popular bulletin on the cooking of
reindeer meat, similar to bulletins on
the cooking of beef and lamb.
35,006 Graduated from State Schools.
Thirty-five thousand and six young
men and women were graduated
in the June classes of the 800
four-year, junior and junior-senior
public high schools in Pennsyl-
vania, according to statistics just
compiled by the department of public
instruction. Of this number 17,832,
or 51 per cent. completed the academ-
ic curriculum; 8482, or 24 per cent.,
commercial curriculum, and 1759, or
6933, or 20 per cent., completed the
commerical curriculum, and 1759, or
5 per cent., completed vocational cur-
riculums, including vocational agri-
culture and vocational home eco-
nomics.
Approximately 5000 graduates re-
ceived diplomas at the February com-
mencement, making a total of 40,000
from public high schools for the school
year 1927-28. In addition to this num-
ber, 5000 were graduated from accred-
ited private and parochial secondary
schols, bringing the total number
completing all secondary schools in
Pennsylvania during the school year
1927-28 to 45,000. This establishes a
new high-water mark for Pennsyl-
vania high school graduates.
There has been a decided change in
the past few years in the type of
commencement exercises given in the
high school, department officials point
out. Where the commencement pro-
gram previously consisted of maay
orations and essays, there is now a
definite trend toward the development
of a program which aims to inform
the people of the community regard-
ing the service performed by the pub-
lic schools. Many commencement
programs are accompanied by demon-
strations showing the actual daily
work which is carried on in the
schools. This type of commencement
is not only better suited to the abili-
ties of secondary school pupils, but it
also aids materially in keeping the
public in touch with the aims and
purposes of the public school system,
officials believe.

Game Commission Makes Changes in
Doe Season—Special Season
Voted.
At a meeting of the State game
commission last week the rulings on
the coming deer season were clarified
and some changes made to cenform
with interpretations handed down by
the State’s attorney general. The
season will be a special season and
hunters will require a special license,
effective only in the county in which
it is issued.
The license fee for the special li-
cense will cost $2, the regular hunt-
ing license costing the same. Both
must be obtained.
In order to meet objections from
counties in which deer are said to be
not overabundant, the commission al-
so ruled that counties may only is-
sue eight special licenses for each
buck killed in the respective coun-
ties the past season. Therefore, in a
county where only five bucks were
killed, only forty licenses to hunt does
could be granted this fall.
Hunters can, however, secure li-
censes in as many counties as they
wish, providing the quota has not
been exhausted. The season will re-
main from December 1 to December
15, but will be closed for bucks.
Each licensed hunter may kill one
doe, without visible antlers and
weighing not less than 50 pounds, in
the season. Hunting parties are per-
mitted to kill one doe for each mem-
ber. A fine of $100 will be imposed
for violation of the visible antlers
regulation.
The rabbit season has been changed
to open November 1, instead of Oc-
tober 15. Hunters are allowed to kill
five a day on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday of each week until Decem-
ber 1, when they may be shot six days
a week until December 15.
The Dog Law.
The word “Owner” when applied to
the proprietorship of a dog, shall in-
clude every person having a right of
property in such dog, and every per-
son who keeps or harbors such dog
or has it in his care, and every per-
son who permits such dog to remain
on or about any premises occupied by
im.
It is unlawful for any person to
own or keep any dog six months old
or over unless such dog is licensed,
and unless such dog at all times
wear the collar and tag.
License and tag can be procured di-
rect from the County Treasurer or
through a Justice of the Peace, Al-
derman, Magistrate or Notary Public.
License fee—Male dog, one dollar;
spayed female dog when certificate of
veterinarian or affidavit of owner 1s
produced, one dollar; all other female
dogs two dollars. County Treasurer
allowed 10 cents additional. Justice
of the Peace, Alderman, Magistrate
and Notary Public allowed 15 cents
in addition to license and county
treasurer fee.
It is unlawful for any person to
place any dog button or any poison
of any description in any place, on his
own premises or elsewhere, where it
may be easily found and eaten by
dogs.
It is the duty of police officers to
kill any dog which is found running
at large not bearing proper license
tag.
It is the duty of police officers to
take up and impound licensed dogs
found running at large unaccompa-
nied.
Police officers mean any local po-
lice or constable.
Any person violating or failing or
refusing to comply with any of the
provisions of the Dog Law is liable
to fine of not less than $5.00 nor
more than $100.00 or 30 days in jail,
or both.
Centre County Sheep Men Plan Ram |
Sale.
The Centre County Sheep and Wool
Growers Association held their first
annual purebred ram sale in the stock
judging pavilion at State College, on
Wednesday afternoon, August 15th,
at two o’clock.
The committee on arrangement was
P. H. Lose, Centre Hall; C. T. Sellers,
Waddle; I. O. Campbell, Penna. Fur-
nace; J. K. Alexander, Unionville;
R. P. Campbell, Centre Hall, and P.
C. McKinzie, State College.
The committee had located twelve
purebred Hampshires, including three
ram lambs and the remainder older
rams, also eight Shropshires, of which
there was one ram lamb and seven
older rams. These rams have all been
carefully selected as to type and
breeding by W. B:. Connell, of the
sheep extension department, State
College, and R. C. Blaney, county
agent.
This was the first time a sale cof
this type has been held in the central
part of the State.
This sale is a part of the sheep de-
velopment work of the Centre county
sheep men and along with the wool
pool and lamb feeding club makes
three main projects in their sheep im-
provement program.
3000 Girls Finish Economics Course.
More than 3000 girls in the voca-
tional home economics classes in day
schools completed home projects this
year, according to reports made to
the department of public instruction.
Each project was a normal unit of
home work requiring from thirty to
sixty hours of time spent under the
combined guidance and direction of
the mother and the teacher of home
economics.
Reports of the projects indicate
that the activities centered around
meal planning—preparation and serv-
ice; child care and training, keeping
household accounts, family baking,
planning and making garments, house
care and home management.

School Merger is Gaining Impetus.
Records compiled
ment of Public Instruction show that
the consolidation of rural schools in |
Pennsylvania continues to make rapid |
progress. There are now 508 approv-
ed consolidated schools for which
reimbursement for transportation is’
made to the districts by the State.
During the school year, for which
figures are available, 286 consolidated
schools increased their general equip-
ment and 16,177 books were added to
the libraries of the consolidated
schools of the State. Many of these
schools enlarged and improved their
school grounds and provided better
transportation vehicles. New maps
were purchased for sixty-two schools
and sixty-three purchased flags and
flagstaffs.
The curricula in many consolidated
schools have been enriched by the ad-
dition of music and art supervision
and the organizing of orchestras and
bands. Physical education is receiv-
ing much attention. Many parent-
teacher associations have been organ-
ized in connection with these schools.
The report further shows that ap-
proximately 1500 one-teacher schools
have been closed and the children are
now being transported to consolidated
schools. The records also show that
during the past year 23,000 children
were transported to consolidated
schools for which the districts main- |
taining them will receive reimburse-
ment for transportation from the |
State. :
From July 1, 1927, to July 1, 1928,
forty-seven sites were approved by
the State Council of Education for
new consolidated schools. :
The following factors were cited dy |
officials as having done much to ac-
celerate the consolidation of rural
schools in Pennsylvania: Reimburse- |
ment for transportation by the State; |
bonus of $200 per year for each clos- |
ed school; the State’s assistance in.
maintenance of transportation vehic-
les owned by the school districts; the |
state road building program and mod-
ern means of transportation by mo-
tor vehicles.
Plan for Payments to School Districts.
The department of public instruc- |
tion announced today that the annual
allotment of State appropriation for
the school year 1927-28 to school dis-
tricts with a population of less than
5000 amounts to $11,712,782.82.
One-half of this amount, less de-
ductions, is due these districts next
month. The amount due next month

and for closed schools $268,400. The

superintendents is $40,507.82, for one-
fourth of the cost of tuition and main-
tenance of pupils in schools for the
blind or deaf $51,676.23, for tuition
of pupils in orphanages attending
school in other districts $3285.35, for
