THE HOUSELS OF ALTOONA
SURPRISE MRS. RICHARD LUTZ.
Mrs. Richard Lutz, of East Howard
St., was most pleasantly surprised,
on Sunday, by a birthday dinner
which was arranged, and carried out
by Mrs. Lutz's brother, Mr. Uriah H.
Housel, and family, of Altoona. Mrs.
Lutz advanced in years was very
much composed and joined in the oc-
casion by showing her appreciation
and expressing her many thanks to
those who so cunningly arranged the
surprise which will long be remem-
bered by those who were present in-
cluding:
Mrs. Richard Lutz, daughter, Mar
ion, and grand-daughter, Virginia
Elizabeth Coll, Mr. and Mrs. Roy
Uhl, of Bellefonte; Mr. and Mrs.
Uriah Housel, Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm

Effective June 1st the Tyrone
division of the Pennsylvania railroad
will be discontinued as a separate
operating unit, the branches now
making up the division to be placed
under charge of the Williamsport
and Middle divisions. Superintendent
J. K. Johnston, of the Tyrone divi-
sion has been made assistant general
superintendent of the Eastern divi-
sion with headquarters at Harrisburg.
The Bald Eagle Valley branch will be
operated from Williamsport. All oth-
er branches of the Tyrone division
will be operated by the Middle divi-
sion from Altoona. This change has
been in contemplation for some time
and is in line with the general policy
of consolidation of operating centers.
It will mean a very serious loss to
Tyrone.
— The Queen Esther and the Stand-
ard Bearers Societies, assisted by the
junior choir of the Bellefonte Meth-
odist church will give an entertain-
ment in Pleasant Gap Methodist
church this evening at 8 o'clock. The

sionary play entitled “With, or With-
out,” and a sacred drama, “The Chal-
lenge of the Cross.” A solo, “I Come
to the Garden Alone,” by little Betty
Jean Haupt and a duet, “What Does
It Mean to You?” by Mrs. James
Driver and Mrs. Glenn Johnston will
follow. Mrs. Forrest Tanner will be
the accompanist.

vention of the Sunday schools of

quite a thrilling experience with a
deer, on Saturday night. They were
on their way to the Edgar Hess home
when Gearhart espied a deer frollick-
ing around in the lane. He throttled
his car down to slow speed so the
children could get a good look at the
animal. When the car got fairly
close the deer, evidently blinded by
the lights, made a leap right at the
car, landing on the hood and smiash-
ing the windshield. Mr. Gearhart
was able to stop the car almost In its
tracks. He sustained a number of
cuts on the face by flying glass from
the windshield, but the children were
uninjured. The deer had one leg in-
jured but was able to run around and
remained in that neighborhood over
Sunday.
