    Harry Harding is planning to
leave Bellefonte on March 17. Hav-
ing reached his sixty-sixth year and
being a confirmed bachelor he says
“there is no social life here for me
so I am going to Ft. Laramie, Wyom-
ing, to have a good time on the ranch
of a friend for ten years. Then I'll
be so old I won't care what happens.”
Thus we are to lose the colored Beau
Brummell of the town.

SNOW SHOE AS IT USED TO BE.
Commenting on the bag of fur-
bearing animals caught last month in
the Snow Shoe region by trapper
Reese Rhodes, of Altoona, Henry W.
Shoemaker, in the Altoona Tribune,
says:
Two specimens on exhibition were
obtained in the vicinity of Snow
Shoe, Centre county, on that vast
bleak upland that sends the shivers
through winter travelers who are
forced to travel that way when the
“Canadian breeze” blows out of the
north. Less than three score years
ago the Snow Shoe region was one of
the great primeval wildernesses of
Central Pensylvania. It was shortly
after that, about 1862, that the
“switchback’ railroad was built from
Bellefonte to bring out the coal and
open up the great pineries.
It was then that John Uzzle, a
Welshman and Civil war veteran, op-
ened his hotel at Snow Shoe, which
for nearly a half century was the
favorite headquarters for lumbermen,
trout fishermen, prospectors, hunters
and trappers. Aaron Hall, of Union-
ville, Centre county, ' known in his
earlier days as “the lion hunter of
Juniata,” was much in evidence
there, bringing to the hotel the car-
casses of many panthers, just as
trapper Rhodes displayed his wild-
cats. John Gunsallus, hardy descend-
ant of the Spanish pioneers, was also
Snow Shoe region, his specialty be-
ing wolves. John Askey was prob-
ably the greatest nimrod of them all,
if the number of panthers and wolves
which he captured is the standard.
Today it is refreshing to weary
city dwellers to feel that there is a
“delectable mountain,” near at hand,
where wild life lingers, and in the
snow may be seen the tracks of fox,
wildcat and other interesting eco-
nomically and commercially valuable
creatures.
Aircraft Radio Progressing.
In his annual report submitted to
the Department of Commerce Clar-
ence M. Young director of aero-
nautics, states that ‘radio communi-
cation for aircraft along the trans-
continental route is to be installed ‘in
the near future at a number of fields
across the country, which will in-
clude Bellefonte. This service has
already been partially available at
Hadley field, N. J., and at the Bu-
reau of Standards experimental sta-
tion at Bellefonte for several months,
and air-transport companies are in-
stalling equipment on their planes to
| receive direct weather reports, land-
| ing instructions and other informa-
| tion.’
—— Clarence W. Zerby and Russell
| A. Sweetwood, both of Spring Mills,
| were arrested on Monday, by county |
| detective Leo Boden, on the charge |
| of ‘committing a number. of petty rob-
| beries throughout lower Pennsvalley.
