CENTRE COUNTY BANKERS
HOLD ANNUAL BANQUET
Every Bank in County Represented in
118 Guests Present.
the Centre County Bankers’ asso- |
ciation was held at the Bush house, |
last Thursday evening, at 6 o'clock.
Every one of the fifteen banks in the '
county was represented by members ‘Th
of its board of directors, officers and |
employees, the total number present !
being 118. The officers for the ensu-
ing year are as follows:
President, Earl S. Orr, assistant
treasurer of the Bellefonte Trust
company; first vice president, George
Barnes, cashier of the First
National bank, of Philipsburg,
second vice President, Willard K.
McDowell, cashier of the First
National bank of Howard; secretary,
Lloyd WwW. Stover, cashier of the
Farmers Nationa] bank and Trust
company, of Millheim; treasurer, The-
odore C, Jackson, cashier of the Mo-
shannon National bank, Philipsburg.
A sumptuous turkey dinner was
served by Mine Host W, J. Emerick
which was thoroughly enjoyed by all
present. Cecil Walker was in charge
of the music while special vocal se-
lections were rendered by the Kiwan-
is quartette. Other musical features
were a soprano solo by Mrs. Egil
Risan and two solos by Miss Florence
Barr, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, A,
Miles Barr. Miss Freda Edmiston
presided at the piano.
Nelson E. Robb, treasurer of the
Bellefonte Trust company and retir-
ing president of the association, pre-
sided as toastmaster and introduced
as the first speaker O. Howard Wolfe,
cashier of the Philadelphia National
bank, who spoke on “Service Charge.”
Mr. Wolfe stated that a bank’s check-
ing deposits of less than $100 month-
ly balance, averages 60% of its total
number of depositors and equals only
2% of the total deposits. The service
charge means that the bank should
charge a monthly fee to any checking
depositor whose balance for that
month would not average $100 or
more. This charge, as it has been
universally adopted, is $1.00 per
month, It costs the bank an average
of $15.42 per year to carry a check-
ing account, Banks do not want to
impose this charge but prefer that
the depositors whose accounts do not
average $100 per month increase their
balance in their checking accounts to
$100. Mr. Wolfe referred only to
checking accounts, If this service
charge of $1.00 per month were put
into effect it does not mean that those
depositors who could not increase
their balance to $100 per month
would be compelled to discontinue
doing business with the bank. They
could open a savings account with
$1.00 or more, receive 39% interest
Der annum, and when in need of mon-
ey could come into the bank and with-
draw it, Savings accounts are not
subject to check. Mr. Wolfe further
stated that there are other ways in
which the service charge should he
applied. On past due notes, overdrawn
accounts and a minimum interest
charge. The First National bank of
State College is applying a service
charge on notes carried beyond ma-
turity. If the maker of the note does
not arrange for it at maturity he is
charged 50 cents for the first day the
note is overdue and 25 cents for each
day thereafter until the note has been
arranged for. Not only is the maker
of the note obliged to pay this penal-
ty for his laxness but his credit at
the bank is greatly impaired through
his own negligence regardless of how
substantial his name may be. Banks
are required by law to have all notes
arranged for when due, and for that
reason the penalty charge is just and
fair,
A minimum interest charge of 50
cents for each note discounted is made
because an analysis of the handling
of a note shows that it costs the bank
almost that much to take care of it.
The speaker also declared that a
small charge should be made for all
checks presented at the bank when
there are insufficient funds on deposit
to pay the check. The speaker an-
swered many questions relative to the
service charge and the bankers were
impressed with his talk and intimated
that consideration of the project
would be given.
Professor Fred J. Weaver, head oz.
the agricultural economics depart-
ment of the Pennsylvania State Col-
lege, was next introduced. He gave a
very interesting and instructive talk
on “The Farmers Relations to the
Banks.” He used a chart giving in-
teresting statistics to the bankers
showing necessity for credit to the
farmers. Prof, Weaver pointed out
that farmers generally made pur-
chases on the installment plan and
thereby were compelled to pay as
high as 19% interest on their mon-
ey. He proposed that the farmer go
to his bank and explain his financial
condition. The banker would then
be very willing to make the farmer
a loan at 6%, thereby saving about
13%, and pay cash for whatever he
buys. Banks are only too willing to
assist the farmer whenever possible
if the farmer will go to his banker
and tell him just what he would like
to do. Farmers need credit and this
credit should be secured at a bank and
not ‘through any installment house
if farmers want to save money,
A rising vote of thanks was given
the speakers and the members went
home feeling that the meeting was
not only interesting but educational.

AGED BELLEFONTE MAN
INJURED WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
re-
tired electrician, of Bishop street, is
the Centre County hospital, in a pre-
carious condition, as a result of be- !
ing knocked down by an automobile
early Wednesday evening.
The accident * happened at a few
minutes after seven o’clock Wednes-
day evening. Robert Spicer, of
omas street, Bellefonte, was driv-
ing west on High street and had
reached the center of the bridge over
Spring creek, where he intended to
park, when Mr. Showers stepped out
from between two cars evidently with
the intent of crossing to the south
side of the street. He was in front
of the car before either he or its driv-
er realized it. As there was no es-
cape he threw his arms over the rad-
iator with the
ing himself. At the same time Spic-
er threw his brakes with all the pow-
er at his command. The car didn’
move three feet further, but that lit-
tle bit of movement was sufficient to
throw the eighty-year old gentleman
backward with such froce that J, IM.
Cunningham and Geo. T. Bush, who
were standing on the bridge near this
office, were startled by the thud of his
head striking on the brick paving:
They ran to him at once and tried
to pick him up, but he was uncon-
scious and a hasty examination reveal-
ed that he was seriously injured. The
fact that he was lying in front of the
car and its wheels were not on any
part of him was evidence that its
driver must have been driving very
slowly and stopped it as quickly as
was humanly possible.
As soon as another car could he
be commandeered Mr. Showers was
taken to the hospital where it was
found that he had suffered lacera-
tions of the back of his head, the ser-
iousness of which could not be de-
termined until an X-ray is taken.
He regained only partial conscious-
ness during the night and at 9 yester-
day morning was still in a semi-coma,

Infantile Paralysis Causes Death of
Bellefonte Boy.
Olaf Stanley Risan Jr., ten year
old son of Mr, and Mrs, 0. S. Risan,
died at the family home, on west
Beaver street, Bellefonte, at 9:55
o’clock on Sunday morning, follow-
ing one week’s illness with an attack
of acute infantile paralysis. “Jup-
ior,” as he was familiarly known, be-
came ill on November 18th but his
ailment was not considered of a ser-
ious nature until Tuesday when the
family physician was summoned. At
that time it was impossble to tell the
nature of the disease and a day or
two later blood cultures were taken
and an analysis showed the ailment
*—————
to be malignant infantile paralysis. N.
Everything possible was done but
without avail,
Junior was born at Charleroi, but
the family have lived in Bellefonte
Six or more years, In addition to the
parents one sister, Charlotte Lilian,
survives. Funeral services were held
at four o’clock on Monday afternoon
by Rev. C. E. Arnold, of the Luth-
eran church, burial being made in
the Union cemetery.
This is the third case of infantile
paralysis in Bellefonte this fall but
the only fatality. :

Showing the best form displayed
this year the Bellefonte High school
defeated Juniata High, on Hughes
field, last Friday afternoon, by the
score of 26 to 7. The lone touch-
down made by the visitors was by
halfback Wogan, on a fake play,
when he slipped through the entire
Bellefonte team and ran 75 yards.
Bellefonte then woke up and scored
three more touchdowns,
On Saturday afternoon the Belle-

The score does not tell the story of
the game by any means, or the rela-

Academy coach used about every man
he had in the entire squad just to
give them a chance in the last sched-
uled game of the year.
The Academy’s Post-season game

Two Mail Pilots Killed in Storm.
Lawrence W. Garretson, air mail
pilot for the National Air Transport
company, flying between New York
and Cleveland, was burned to death,
on Sunday evening, when his plane
crashed during a blinding snow storm,
near Bristolville, Ohio. Garretson

over and bursting into flames, Two
men, who saw the crash, hurried to
the spot but the plane had been re-
duced to ashes and Garretson’s body
was burned beyond recognition,
The other pilot who met death was
Tilden (Pete) Johnson, flying from
Cleveland to Cincinnati, who was also
forced down by the snow storm, near

‘MANY FARMERS ATTEND
; THE ANNUAL MEETING.
Interesting Sessions of Agricultural
: Extension Association.
| —
The annual meeting of the Centre
county Agricultural Extension Asso-
ciation, held in Bellefonte last Satur-
day, was the most successful and in-
teresting since the work was inaug-
‘urated eleven years ago. About two
hundred farmers and farmer’s wives
were in attendance.
{ The meeting was called to order at
! ten o’clock by the President, J. Foster
Musser, of State College, who outlin-
ed the program for the day. He also
appointed as a committee on the nom-
(ination of officers for the ensuing
!year J. G. Miller, J. J. Markle and
i Mrs. Arthur Peters.
Miss Mary Reynolds, home eco-
i nomic representative, was introduced
'as the first speaker of the morning.
She gave a general outline report of
the work done during the year which
included clothing work conducted with
| different groups of women and also
{the junior work conducted with the
i girls. Ten Centre county 4H club
| girls, all dressed in white with green
‘and white standard 4H -
| gave a demonstration of the camp fire
| which was conducted at the girls’
camp during the summer, It proved
very interesting and showed the high
type of educational work being done
through the aid of the girls’ clubs.
Following Miss Reynolds,
farm representative R. C. Blaney sub-
| mitted a very interesting report of
| the work done during the year. The
report showed an increase of 1536
farm contacts this year over those of
1, when the bresent system
i keeping records was established. An
! organized program was developed in
‘each of the thirteen communities in
{the county. This brogram was ar-
{ ranged by local committees and car-
ried to a successful conclusion with
the assistance of the county agent.
Mr. Blaney discussed at some length
results on various lines of work, with
certain crops and farm dairying tak-
ing the lead in accomplishments this
year. One of the big features of the
work as a whole was that dene by the
boys and girls in their various clubs,
During 1928 a total of sixty girls and
boys have been’ actively engaged in
agricultural clubs work in Centre
county.
The reports of both Miss Reynolds
and Mr. Blaney called forth many
expressions of appreciation and by
a unanimous vote were ordered ac-
cepted and filed of record.
ed the following officers for the en-
suing year, all of whom were duly
elected: President, J. Foster Musser,
State College; vice president, Clar-
ence Peters, Stormstown; Secretary,
ewton I. Wilson, Warriorsmark;
treasurer, W. C. Smeltzer, Bellefonte,
At 12:30 o'clock 126 men and wo-
men gathered at the Y. M. C. A.
where they were served a delicious
dinner by the Woman’s Auxiliary.
During the repast Cecil Walker led
community singing while Dr. H. H.
Havner, of State College, gave a brief
but interesting talk on agricultural
extension work.
In the afternoon there were two
group meetings, the women gathering
in the library and the men in the
main court room, Miss Harmony
Hutchinson, of the home economics
department at State College, talked
to the women and gave a demonstra-
tion on home furnishings. Miss Rey-
nolds, who presided, discussed the
1929 program. She stated that due
to a change in organization her work
don and Centre counties, instead of
Clearfield, Centre and Clinton, as here-
tofore. This change was made neces-
sary due to the increased demand for
more home economics work among
the women, and will enable her to de-
vote more of her time in Centre coun-
ty.
The men’s meeting was addressed
by Dr. E. 1. Nixon, the potato wiz-
ard of State College and now an ex-
perimental farmer in Ferguson town-
ship. He stated that one of the big
problems facing the farmer is that of
securing lime at a price that the
farmer can afford to Pay. He made
the assertion that Pennsylvania farm-
ers are compelled to pay a higher
freight rate on lime than those of any
other adjoining State. Dr. Nixon
stated that the problem confronting
the Centre county farmer is the
breaking down of a lot of old stand-
ard ideas of agriculture and apply-
ing more scientific methods,
pressed the belief that Centre county
farmers gre just beginning to appre-
ciate their possibilities, both econom-
ical and educational. Located right
at the front door of the greatest
agricultural extension experiment sta-
tions in the country,
Tag first-hand information on any

formation, applied in the proper way,
should mean great satisfaction and
