WARRIORSMARK CHURCH
BURNED TO GROUND.
Just half an hour after the con-
gregation had been dismissed and
gone to their homes, at noon on Sun-
day, fire was discovered in the War-
riorsmark Methodist Episcopal
church, and with no adequate fire
{fighting apparatus the edifice was
{ burned to the ground. The estimat-
, ed loss is $40,000, only partially cov-
fered by insurance. As soon as the
j fire was discovered a call for assist-
fiance was sent to Tyrone and two
companies of firemen responded. But
(by the time they arrived on the
ground the church was doomed, and
| with only a limited supply of water
{available the firemen devoted their
| efforts to saving adjoining properties.
| At one time the home of George G
| Hutchinson, which adjoins the church
| property, was seriously threatened
but the efforts of the firemen saved
| it.
| The Warriorsmark church was one
‘of the oldest buildings in the town,
having been built in 1813. It was of
!frame and in 1843 was remodeled.
{ Since then various repairs have been
( made at stated periods but nothing
done to materially change the edi-
/fice. The fire which destroyed the
“building evidently originated from an
overheated furnace and defective
"flue.
Rev. L. L. Owens is the pastor in
i charge and he had announced at the
‘morning service the beginning of a
' series of revival meetings on Monday
night. Owing to the burning of the
church the hieetings ‘are “being H
in another church in the town.
‘church will be rebuilt along modern
lines as soon as the church board can
arrange to begin work.

The boxing match in the armory
here last Friday night between the
Academy squad and the mitt-men of
Coal township High school, Shamo-
{ kin, was an interesting sports event.

it came when Alexander Morris, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Morris of this
| place, stepped out in the 115-pound
| class and put his doughty rival from
| Shamokin so sound asleep that he
| never woke up until long after the
{referee had tolled off “10.” It was
{the only knock-out of the meet in
which the Academy won five to two,
as follows:
115-pound class—Morris, Bellefonte, de-
feated Krebs, Coal Township, three

Safety, silence and
simplieity are features
of the new Ford
ONE of the first things you
will notice when you drive
the new Ford is the quick,
effective, silent action of its
six-brake system.
This system gives you the
highest degree of safety and
reliability because ihe four-
wheel service brakes und the
separate emergency or park.
ing brakes are all of the
mechanical, internal ex-
panding type, with braking
surfaces fully enclosed for
proiecticn against mud,
walter, sand, etc.
The many advantages of
this type of braking system
have long heen recognized.
They are brought to you in
the new Yord ihirough a
series of mechanical ime
provements embodying
much that is new in design
and manufacture. A particu-
larly unique feature is the
simple way by which a spe-
cial drum has been con-
structed to permit the use of
iwo seis of internal brakes
on the rear wheels,
A further improvement
in braking performance is
effected by the self-center-
ing feature of the four-
wheel Drakes — an
exclusive Pord de-
velopment. Through
wo
~... FORD MOTOR COMPANY. ..
six-brake system
this construction, the entire
surface of the shoe is
brought in steady, uniform
contact with th: drum the
instant you press your foot
on the brake pedal. This
prevenis screeching and
1owling and makes the Ford
rakes unusually silent in
operation.
Another feature of the
Ford brakes is the ease of
adjustment.
The four-wheel brakes
are adjusted by turning a
screw conveniently located
on the outside of each brake
plate. This screw is so
notched that all four brakes
can be set alike simply by
listening to the “clicks.”
The emergency or park-
ing brakes on the new Ford
require little attention. How-
ever, should they need ad-
justment at any time, con-
sult your Ford dealer for
prompt, courteous, and eco-
nomical service. He works
under close factory super-
vision and he has been spe-
cially trained and equipped
to help you get the greatest
possible use from your car
over the longest period
of time at a mini-
mum of trouble and
expense,

TWO CARGOES OF BEER
SEIZED IN BELLEFONTE.
Greg
...Millheim
Two truck loads of beer, totaling
thirty-one half barrels, were captur-
ed on the streets of Bellefonte about
noon last Saturday and, according
to report, was high-powered stuff.
According to report the two trucks
were trailed to Bellefonte from Lock
Haven by State highway patrolmen
who were out on the hunt of chicken '
thieves. On their arrival in Belle-
fonte the patrolmen notified county
detective Leo Boden and together
they rounded up the two trucks. One
of them was taken in charge almost
‘directly in front of the court house
and the other was found on Logan
street.
One truck contained fifteen half
barrels of beer and was in charge of
. Ralph T. Eyer. The other truck was
loaded with sixteen half barrels and
was in charge of W. J. Parker, both
. Bellefonte men. One of the trucks
was registered in the name of W. W.
Bicketts and the other Josepn Ca-
pani.
The beer and trucks were convoy-
ed to the Centre county jail and stor-
ed in the jail yard, but on Tuesday
| morning the trucks wer2 released
‘when bond in the sum of $600 for
'each truck was posted by W. W.
Bicketts.
Eyer and Parker were given a
hearing before ’Squire Keichline and
contended that the heer was only
‘near-beer. However, they were each
held in $500 bail for a court trial.

The residents of our town were -
very much alarmed when the report
came out, Sunday afternoon, that
two children of Mr. and Mrs. John -
Saxton, had scarlet fever. One was
sick while in school on Friday. The
health officers got busy on Monday -
morning, disinfecting, etc., and clos-
ing’ both schools until Wednesday.
Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Everett and
Miss Martha Hoover, of Bellefonte,
were visitors at the home of Mrs. .
Amanda Comley, last Thursday. Mrs.
Comley is the only aunt living of
Mrs. Everett and she came up and
spent the day with her, Mr. Everett
and Miss Hoover joining them at
the evening meal and for the even-
ing.
Last Friday evening Union Grange
had the pleasure of having with them
a number of the members of Logan
Grange. The installation of officers -
was the principal business of the
meeting, which was very ably done
by L. E. Biddle and his well-trained
helpers. During the social hour, re-
freshments were served and a cordial
invitation was extended Logan
Grange to come again.
On Saturday evening at 8 o'clock
there will be a meeting in the M. E.
