Phone 329R. The regular monthly meeting the Nittany valley Dairyman’s of League was held at the court house, | Bellefonte, last Saturday afternoon. ‘Only routine business was transacted. Both Bellefonte and Mill Hall are be- ing considered as the place to locate a shipping plant. ——J. Harvey McClure, James I. McClure, of this place, has had more honors thrust upon him out in Ohio. We have frequently com- ‘mented on Harve’s great business i achievement in having managed the successful rehabilitation of the Cin- <cinnati, Hamilton - and Dayton Rail- way. At a recent meeting of the Ohio ‘Electric Railway Association he was ‘unanimously chosen president of the organization. - - -- A five month’s old wildeat has ‘been added to the State game refuge, in Rush township. It was captured by workmen on the State highway be- ‘tween Lock Haven and Renovo and ‘taken to Philipsburg by Ed Hewitt. ‘The animal weighs some ten or twelve pounds andis assavage as its full grown ancestors are reputed to be. ‘Game keeper Elmer Pilling is going to experiment with the little animal in an effort to find out what really makes a wildcat wild. The Bellefonte curb market is gradually dwindling, only nine farmers and truck growers being lined up in front of the court house on Wednesday morning. This was Just about one-third the number who attended market during the height of the summer season. And strange as it may seem, they came to Bellefonte from all parts of Pennsvalley and lower ‘Nittany and Bald Eagle val- leys. And the reason was that they got better prices for produce here than they could get anywhere else. Mrs. Daisy B. Henderson and Mrs. Alberta M. Krader were host- esses at a six o'clock dinner to the members of the High school faculty, at the Brockerhoff house on Monday evening. The table was attractively dressed in the school colors—red and white, and the name cards designed and executed by Miss Margaret Bus- «er, of Altoona, added an unusual note of originality. Besides the entire teaching corps of the High school others present were, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur H. Sloop, Mrs. Harry C. Men- old and son, Harry Jr. . Last Friday morning a Holmes moving van, loaded with furniture, ‘Was on its way from Clearfield to State College. Just as it reached the parking space on south Water stre=t, Bellefonte, the driver discovered that his load was on fire, Pulling into the parking space the men with the van made quick work in unloading the furniture. In the meantime the fire companies had been summoned and what little fire there was was quick- ly extinguished with chemicals. How the fire originated is not definitely known, but the furniture, somewhat damaged, was finally delivered at State College. Bellefonte has at least one en- thusiastic woman voter who has no intention of missing her right of franchise this fall. On Tuesday morning about six o'clock policeman Thomas Howley discovered her sit- ting on the steps of a home on Bishop street, not far from the Undine fire house. Thinking it possible that she might be sick he accosted her and ask- ed if anything was wrong. “Oh, no, she replied; I'm just waiting for the polls td open so I can vote.” Police- man Howley told the woman that she was just one month too early, as the election was not until November. The associated business men of Bellefonte met in the court house Wednesday evening and after trans- action of the routine business devot- ed an hour to discussion of the pro- ‘posal to open a community loan ser- ‘vice in Bellefonte, Mr. Joseph Si- ‘mons, secretary of the Lock Haven ‘institution, was present and gave a ‘very illuminative talk on the service such an enterprise renders the mer- chants of a community. It is not a bank of deposit. Merely a bank for loaning amounts up to $300, to those who have bothersome small obliga- tions that they want to pay off. The process is practically this: You owe the doctor, the butcher, the grocer, ete. sundry amounts and want to as- semble them into one account that you «can pay on weekly. You get your creditors to endorse your note for the amounts due them then go to the loan bank with the notes. It discounts them, pays the creditors off and you pay the loan back on a 10 per cent. interest basis in weekly or monthly installments. The as$ociation voted to give $100 to the Y. M. C. A. for each of the years 1927 and 1928, call Elliott . son of : i BOTH FIRE COMPANIES | WANT MORE FIRE HOSE. | Fire Marshall Bower Explained the Need to Borough Council Monday Evening. Fire marshall John J. Bower ap- peared before borough council, on Monday evening, and explained to . that body just why both fire compa- i nies should have an additional supply “of fire hose. The last hose purchased by the borough was in 1923, and the’ hose now in use dates back to 1921. Some of it is showing the effects of its age as well as wear and is liable to go to pieces any time under heavy pressure. Mr. Bower cited the con- dition on Monday, September 24th, when the companies responded ‘o ; three alarms and were almost at the end of their hose. The matter was « referred to the Fire and Police com- mittee for investigation and report. { Mr. Bower further stated that in communication with the Auditor Gen- eral he has secured exemption certifi- cates from the payment of three cents gas tax by the borough, both on its fire apparatus and the borough truck, which will mean a saving of from five i to six dollars a month. Only six councilmen were present at the meeting, and as one of the ab- sentees was president Walker Mr. Emerick was chosen to preside. The Street committee reported re- pairs on various streets, putting them in shape for winter, and the collec. tion of $30 for a sewer permit. The Water committee reported the six inch line completed on west Lamb and Thomas streets ready to make connection at the Sheffield Farms company milk plant. The committee also reported the collection of $240 on the 1927 water duplicate and $17.00 for the repair of a meter. It was further recommended that the water rate for the current year shall be the same as for last year, ninety per cent. of the schedule. The Fire and Police committee again made complaint about the West Penn Power company paying no at- tention to notices of lights being out. Mr. Emerick stated that the police should make a written return to coun- cil of every light out and the length of time, and the loss of service be deducted from the company’s bill each month. Mr. Reynolds stated that quite a number of automobilists, mostly Bellefonters, are not regarding the “No U Turn” sign on the traffic signal at the intersection of Alle- gheny and Linn streets, and claimed that he had seen the police not far away when the turns were made and they never said a word. The Fire and Police committee were instructed to confer with the burgess regarding a more definite understanding as to the duties of the police and then see that they do the work. Mr. Emerick stated that the streets of the borough ought to be posted with the same kind of signs used on the State highwavs | then if automobilists did not regard | them arrest them and make them pay {a fine. He suggested that the Fire ‘and Police committee also consider | this matter until the next meeting of council. Mr. Reynolds, of the Village Im- ! provement committee, reported that | some person has started the construc- | tion of a garage on Reservoir hill | without securing a permit or submit- | ting plans to council and wanted to know what to do about it. He was in- | structed to consult the borough solic- (itor and also inspect the location of | the garage and plans and if they do not meet the borough requirements make the man change them. The Finance committee reported a balance in the hands of the borough treasurer of $553.27. Renewal was j requested of notes totaling $9630 and new notes for $2500 were authorized to meet current bills. The committee also reported receipt of a bill for $669.56 from the Auditor General for State tax on borough indebtedness. The bill was referred to the borough solicitor to check up on its accuracy. Mr. Cobb brought up the matter of insurance on the Gamble mill. When the borough made a bid for the prop- erty two months ago they took out a binder on the old policy for thirty days, at a cost of $275, then had it extended for another thirty days. Mr. Cobb stated that the extension ex- pired on October 3rd and it is a costly matter paying for extensions. But inasmuch as the borough has not vet obtained title to the property, be- cause the sale has never been con- firmed, it is impossible to place a pol- icy on the building for a year. The matter was finally referred to the committee and borough solicitor with Power, . The Water committee reported that school boys, some of them Higl. school students, had broken fully fifty panes of glass in the mill by throwing stones through them, and that they had broken into the mill and did oth- er damage. Most of the broken glass has been replaced and an appeal is to be made to supervising principal A, H. Sloop to caution the boys against doing further damage. The news- papers were also requested to warn the boys that any further acts of van- dalism will result in their prompt ar- rest and punishment. Mr. Cobb stated that he had con- sulted the borough solicitor regard- ing a building code and a zoning or- dinance required by the Underwriters Association as one of the necessities towards securing a reduction in in- surance rates, and the solicitor is of | the opinion that council should indi- cate the kind of an ordinance desired and he will then draw it. The com- mittee was instructed to work out a form and report same to council at the next meeting. The Water committee was instruct- ed to have a thorough inspection made of all fire hydrants before cold weather sets in. Bills totaling $2600 were approved for payment, after which council ad- journed. COMMON PLEAS CASES TRIED THIS WEEK. Court convened on Monday morn- ing at ten o’clock, and the first case was that of Viola Reed, who had brought a prosecution and failed te obey the subpoena to appear before the grand jury, giving no reason therefore. She was sentenced for contempt of court to pay the costs. The first case to be taken up was that of Andrew Thal and Bertha Thal, his wife, vs. J. V. Foster, be- ing an action in trespass. This case grows out of an automobile collision between the plaintiff and the defend- ant on the curve on State highway north of Potters Mills on June 15, 1924.

Mann, the regular tax collector by reason of illness re- signed his office in 1926. Orvis M. Fetzer was appointed collector for Curtin township by the county com- missioners in August, 1926, and sub- sequently qualified but no bond was filed with the school board until af- ter fifteen days from his appoint- ment. The school board on Septem- ber 20, 1926, appointed the defend- ant as collector of school taxes for the year 1926 and both persons col- lected taxes. The case was tried oun Tuesday and at the close of the tes- timony the court directed a verdict in favor of the plaintiff and the de- fendant made a motion for a judz- ment notwithstanding the verdict, which now raises the whole issue a question of law by the Court. aq a to be passed upon L G.
