Miss Edie Holt, of Moshannon,
daughter of Mr. Harbison Holt, was
found dead in her bed on Friday
morning last. She was 16 years old
and had retired the night before in
apparently as good health as usual.
Rev. J. S. McMurray stopped at our |
sanctum window on Monday last and
related the fact that his latest
achievement in the fishing line was
about three dozen trout. The chick-
ens in Rev. McMurray's district are
always glad when the fishing season
comes around and for the time be-
ing venture to roost low.
R. M. Magee Esq., returned from
Atlantic City on Friday last. His
family still remain at that delightful
resort by the side of the sounding
sea.
Jack L. Spangler Esq.. was the
orator before one of the literary so-
cieties of Dickinson Seminary, at
Williamsport, and his address is high-
ly spoken of.’
George Hale Esq., of New York, is
in town spending a short season on
his native heath. The Hale mansion
is open once more and other mem-
bers of the family are at home. We
understand that George, who has
been in ill health, is going to Colo-
rado with the hope of effecting a re-
covery.
A picked nine from Bellefonte full
of conceit and, perhaps a little, just
a little, beer went up to the State
College on Wednesday last week with
the avowed purpose of walloping the
team at that place. But alas for the
fallacy of human hopes they were
licked so badly that we hear some of
them were ashamed to come home.
‘The score was 32 to 18.
A Bellefonte councilman who evi-

under peculiar circumstances last
Tuesday night. He had been shovel-
plowing corn in the Conrad Fry lot

er in the evening. It is believed to
have been a case of sunstroke.

| IRWIN.—Dr. William U. Irwin
‘who had had been confined to his
home in + Bellefonte for several
months, suffering with heart trouble,
{the result of a general breakdown,
‘suffered because of overwork dur-
ing the flu epidemic last fall,
passed away at 5:45 o'clock yester-
day morning.
! He was a son of Daniel and Kliza
G. Irwin and was born at West Tn-
icn, Iowa, on July 9th, 1863, hence
was not quite 66 years old. When
but two years old his parents re-
turned to Centre county and locat-
ed at Julian. The doctor was eau-
.cated in the public school of his
{home community and the Bellefonte
‘ Academy after which he entered Jef-
ferson Medical college, Philadelphia.
‘He graduated in 1890 and began the
‘practice of medicine in Union-

‘the start and his services were much
‘in demand. He was a member of the
Centre County Medical Society the
. State and national societies. He was

‘come into Bellefonte and met with
‘so prompt recognition of his ability
‘as was Dr. Irwin's lot upon locating
here. He was a splendid physician
and his knowledge of medicine was
supplemented by an unimpeachable
| character and that symapthetic per-
| sonality that often does more than
medicaments in a sick room.

not been completed when the Watch-
‘man went to press.

KIWANIANS MEET
FOR INTER-CLUB SERVICE
The past ten days have been varied
and interesting for Kiwanians. Last
Thursday evening the clubs of Lew-
istown and Bellefonte had a delight-
joint meeting and supper at “Camp
Clare,” in the Seven Mountains.
Games, good eats, short talks, peppy
music and genial fellowship furnish-
ed a truly pleasing program. Paul
Lehman, of Lewistown, was the mas-
ter of ceremonies. A rising vote of
thanks was given to Mr. and Mrs.
‘Clare, of Lewistown, for the use of
their cabin, and the delicious menu
they provided.
On Monday night of this week, at
the Centre Hills Country club, an
ideal rendezvous by the way, the
three Kiwanis clubs of State College,
Philipsburg and Bellefonte, had large
delegations assembled to observe the
“zero hour,” which is observed every
year by every club in the United
States and Canada, during the inter-
national convention week. There were
sixteen members present from the
. Philipsburg club, twenty nme from
the State College club and forty one
from the Bellefonte club. The meet-
ing was in charge of ex-president
“Bobby” Miller, of the State College
club. After the inner man had been
duly satisfied, Kiwanian James Mec-
Dowell welcomed, in a very appro-
priate address, the guests of the vis-
iting clubs, stressing the goals and
objectives of Kiwanis and emphasiz-
ing friendship as the corner stone of
the Kiwanis ideals.
Attendance prizes were awarded
to S. B. Evans, of Philipsburg, and
W. Harrison Walker, of Bellefonte.
Eugene Dambly, chairman of the
State College interclub committee,
assumed charge of the ‘zero hour”
program. Kiwanian George Reiter
made a few timely remarks, setting
forth the benefits to be derived from
interclub meetings.
Kiwanian Demi, chairman of the
interclub committee of the Philips-
burg club, introduced Kiwanian Kat-
on as the spokesman for his club.
Mr. Katon’s speech contained many
pertinent thoughts. “Annie Laurie”
by Mr. and Mrs. Wentzel, of State
College, proved the entertaining fea-
ture of the evening. Crairman Dam-
bly called upon James R. Hughes for
a few remarks. Mr. Hughes urged
that the Kiwanis clubs of the United
States sponsor and promote a move-
ment that will induce the govern-
ment at Washington to provide a po-
lice force large enough to cut down
the terrible crimes of kidnapping,
robbery and murders in this coun-
try, at least four-fifths. He said:
“The money saved in war prepara-
tions, together with the immense
surplus on hand every year could
provide such a force and many men
of the army and navy could be used
in such a service.”
President Harrison Walker, of the
Bellefonte club, read the address that
Mr. O. Samuel Cummings, the presi-
dent of Kiwanis International, was
delivering to the annual convention
at Milwaukee. After a few general
announcements the meeting closed in
the usual fashion.
"THE FOOD IT TAKES
TO FEED THE GUARD.
Officers and members of Troop B,
Bellefonte’s cavalry unit of the Na-
tional Guard, are hard at work drill-
ing and sprucing up generally in an-
ticipation of their two week’s annual
encampment next month. It will be
the first experience of most of them
as a purely cavalry contingent, and
as they will be lined up with old-time
organizations they naturally want to
make as good a record as possible.
| Appropos of the Guard encamp-
ment the feeding of the 12,000 men,
kéep of horses and maintenance of
motor vehicles runs into big money.
; According to Lieut. Col. L. A. Lut-
tringer, disbursing officer, who looks
after the purchase of such supplies,
the cost will be in excess of $75,000.
‘Here is most of the things, required:
| There will be forty-eight tons of
| beef and bread each and sixty-seven
tons of potatoes available for the
guardsmen. Others of the larger
items are: Bacon, 30,800 pounds; can-
ned string beans, 7,680 cans; dry
| beef, 8,500 pounds, butter, 4800
, pounds; cheese. 3130 pounds; coffee,
1 10,750 pounds; corn, 7680 cans; fresh
eggs, 10,200 dozen; flour, 6360
pounds; ham, 28,200 pounds; ice
cream, 505 gallons; jam, 7800 cans:
lard, 6140 pounds; maccaroni, 3130
pounds; rolled oats, 3130 cartons:
fresh onions, 19,200; evaporated
peaches, 4810 pounds; peas, 4180
cans; prunes, 14,450 pounds; rice,
7680 pounds; tea, 768 pounds; toma-
toes, 14,440 cans, and last, but not
least, 6360 cans of the dreaded “gold-
fish” in soldier lingo or really canned
salmon.
Facilities at the camps do not per-
mit the keeping of fresh milk so the
men will have to be satisfied with the
evaporated brand for their coffee and
breakfast cereal and 25,260 cans have
been ordered.
Provision has also been made to
afford plenty of flavoring and season-
ing. There will be 2040 bottles of
catsup, 538 tins of cinnamon; 1000
bottles of lemon and vanilla extract:
1530 tins of pepper; 6120 pounds of
salt; 10,200 cans of syrup; 30,704
pounds of sugar and 192 gallons of
vinegar. :

tion by Rev. Neilson, resident pastor.
A Friday morning watch meeting

intendent of the State association.
Later the convention divided into de-
partmental conferences, Mr. Myer
taking charge of the adult teacher
and missions division, and Rev. Ben-
sell the young people.
At noontime the visiting delegates
were served a most appetizing lurch
in the lecture room by the woman nf

At the close of the business ses-
sion the visiting delegates started on
a motor trip over the scenic drive to
Orviston but were caught in a hard
rain storm and only got as far as
Monument. When the storm abated
they returned to Blanchard and en-
joyed another bounteous meal served
by the church women.
At the closing session, Friday ev-
ening, the devotions were in charge
of Miss Elizabéth Markle, of "State
College, who has been in charge of
the young people’s work in the coun-
ty during the past year. The talk
of the evening was by Rev. Bonsell
on law enforcement and the peace
treaty.
"The convention was one of the
most interesting and inspirational
held in some years. A pleasing fea-
ture was the music, which was led
by Charles Smith, of Beech Creek,
while Rev. Neilson and the ladies of
the church are deserving of praise
for their untiring efforts in entertain-
ing the convention.
PHILIPSBURG WOMAN
KILLED IN AUTO WRECK.
Mrs. Ada Richards, wife of P. S.
Richards, of Philipsburg, was so bad-
ly injured in an auto wreck, near
Johnstown on Sunday afternoon, that
she died at the Memorial hospital,
Johnstown, fifteen minutes after be-
ing admitted.
Two carloads of Philipsburgers
were on their way to visit relatives
in Johnstown, Mrs. Richards being an
occupant of the car driven by her
husband. With them were Mrs. Earl
Kephart and daughter, Miss Dorothy,
of Gearhartville. Their car was a
Ford. The other car was a Pontiac,
driven by Thomas Richards.
P. S. Richards was trailing the
Pontiac and on a steep hill on the
Frankstown road, at Daisytown, the
brakes on the Ford car failed to hold
and the machine got away from the
driver. Mr. Richards attempted to
swing around the Pontiac but failed
to make a clearance and the light
Ford side-swiped the heavier
swerved to the right and overturned.
Mrs. Richards was crushed beneath
the car, sustaining a fractured arm
and internal injuries which caused
her death. All the other occupants
of the Ford escaped with minor in-
juries, while none of the seven pas-
: sengers in the Pontiac were hurt.
Mrs. Richards was a native of In-
diana county and was 62 years old,
but had lived in Philipsburg since
childhood. She was twice married,
her first husband having been David
‘Richards. Following his death five
years ago she married P. S. Richards.
In addition to her husband she is
| survived by two children, two broth- |
ers and two sisters.

late home in Philipsburg, on Wednes- |
i day afternoon, burial being made in
