ANY WOOD CHOPPERS
AT WOOD CHOPPING BEE.
Spelling bees and corn husking
3s were very much in vogue forty
fifty years ago and always proved
ite interesting. It is so rare that
> hears of such things in this day
i age that when something is done
it recalls the past it seems likea
f out of an old-time book.
Last Thursday evening about
enty-five wood choppers gathered
the home of Paul Stover, who lives
the Joseph Eckley farm in Bush
low, and sawed and chopped
ugh of stove wood to last the
nily through the winter. Mr.
yver is a younger brother of Lloyd
Stover, recorder of Centre county,
i for a year or two lived out near
tsburgh. His health became im-
red while living there and last
ing he moved back to Centre
mty and located on the Eckley
'm where he is strugeline to make
iving and regain his health. It was
help him out with his winter's
wlv of fuel that the chopping bee
« held.
ost of the wood chovopers. manv
whom were relatives and friends
Mr. Stover from Coleville, were
vompanied bv their wives and
iehters who took alone well filled
ikets and a big sunver was also a
ture of the chopping bee.

SESQUIPLANE “SUN GOD”
FLEW OVER BELLEFONTE.
The sesquiplane “Sun God,” in
which Nick Mamer and Art Walker
set out to make a non-stop flight
from Spokane, Wash., to New York
and return, by refueling in the air,
had to turn tail, on Sunday night,
after flying over Bellefonte to keep
from being caught in a hard rain
storm while crossing the Alleghenies.
The fliers reached New York short-
ly before five o'clock, Sunday after-
noon, and after circling over the city
and being refueled over Long Island
left about seven o'clock on the west-
ern flight. The pilots decided to fol-
low the course of the airmail to
Chicago and passed over Bellefonte
about nine o'clock Sunday evening.
They had not flown many miles when
they were confronted by an on-com-
ing storm and turning around they
flew back over Bellefonte and on east.
Just where they went is not known
but they returned to Bellefonte about
three o'clock Monday morning and
for two hours circled around here un-
til it became light enough for them
to see the mountains when they
headed west and disappeared on the
continuation of their trip.
MOTOR CLUB'S PICNIC
LARGELY ATTENDED.
The annual picnic of the Centre
County Motor club, held at Hecla
park, last Thursday, was largely at-
tended and the program was varied
enough to keep everybody in a regu-
lar picnic humor. The league ball
game between Bellefonte and Phil-
ipsburg was interesting for Belle-
fonters up to the eighth inning, as
the home team had the advantage of
a 7 to 2 score, but in the eighth
Philipsburg scored five runs and won
the game in the tenth.

MAIN STREET IS
THING OF PAST.
Main street, like the town pump,
has passed from American life.
Villages and small towns are re-
placing the traditional “main drag”
with boulevards equipped to handle
floods of traffic efficiently.
Any man who hasn't been back
to the old home since the war
wouldn't recognize it.
9
All over America the revolution is |
taking place. Old awnings, hitching
posts, livery stables, basement barber
shops, dingy pool halls and shabby
second hand stores have been reno-
vated, snappy new store fronts put
in, store equipment modernized and
beautified and many new and up-to-:
date structures erected. Whatever
paved roads have gone the change
is especially to be noticed.
The result is in journeying to the
up-to-date village, town or city you
find it built around a most modern
business street. The styles they
handle are the latest, so the little
town girl in her finery can step out
on the city’s boulevards and feel at
home.”
The chasm between the city and
the country is rapidly vanishing.
The country cousin is just as chic
and self-confident as the city maiden,
and the independent retail merchant
in town and city is modernizing his
stock salesmanship, advertising and
service and is now more than hold-
ing his own against the chain store
invasion.
TROTTERS TO DO
NIGHT RACING.
Following the example set by of-
ficials of the Grand Circuit at Toledo,
Ohio, the first night horse-racing
program ever to be staged in New
England will take place at the
eighteenth = annual Houlton Fair
August 27, 28 and 29, according to
announcement by the Houlton Agri-
cultural Society. Workmen have
already begun the setting up of the
necessary poles and the laying of
| electric lines.
|
Horse racing at night was first
staged at Toledo merely as an ex-
shoot, fifty targets to the man. There periment to stimulate interest in rac-
were five men on each
team and ing.
It proved to be so successful
Philipsburg won with a total of 204 that lovers of horse racing began to
out of a possible 250; Bellefonte was request it as a permanent feature.
second with a score of 192, Pleasant
Hill 191, and State College 159. R.
T. Terry, of Bellefonte, and Slagle,
of State College, made the best in-
dividual records, each one breaking
45 targets.
SATE COLLEGE TO WADDLE
ROAD TO BE COMPLETED
Under
tion of $375,088.55 for surfacing
earth roads in the State the Centre
County Commissioners have decided
that part of the money that comes
to this county shall be used on the
route from State College to Waddle.
Accordingly work will be started
very soon. Completion of this
stretch, most of which is now im-
proved between Potters Mills on traffic
route No. 53 and State College, will
afford a new outlet for the College to
points along the Bald Eagle moun-
tain and a shorter route to Tyrone.
The new road will make State Col-
lege the center of four roads follow-
ing virtually the four points of the
compass. Residents of Waddle and
other Patton township people will
have a direct connection with the
Lakes-to-Sea Highway eastward and
virtually an air-line route to the State
Capitol, in contrast to the present
round-about f#rail via Bellefonte or
Warriors Mark and Water Street.
KEEP ROADS OPEN AT ALL
TIMES IS WARNING.
Creation of many new airports in
Pennsylvania, the majority of which
adjoining one or more state highway
routes, has increased the hazards of
travel along these thoroughfares, be-
cause operators of motor vehicles
disobey provisions of the law for-
bidding interference with traffic.
Captain Wilson G. Price, superin-
tendent of the State highway patrol,
this week cautioned drivers who
park not only near airports, but on
the State highway generally.
The law provides, he said, that
the roads must be kept open for the
orderly passage of two way traffic.
It is not permissible that machines
be parked on each side of a highway
so as to force lines of traffic to rub
hubs and scrape fenders. The road
must be kept open. Owners of land-
ing fields, ball parks, recreation
grounds, picnicking places, eating
stands, gasoline filling stations and
other magnets for travelers, should
bear in mind that fact. It would not
be to their advantage were officers
stationed along the road to keep
traffic moving.
THE MENACE OF TAXATION.
No person can escape being affect-
ed by the cost of government. It is
reflected in employment conditions,
the purchasing power of wages. in-
dustry, activity, and perhaps most
important, the cost of the necessities
and luxuries of life. :
When the individual is over-taxed
the whole community suffers. And
when a business is over-taxed, the
cost must be passed on to the ulti-
mate consumer, who pays all over-
head.
There are localities in the United
States where vast acreage of land
has been returned to the State or
county, seized for non-payment of
taxes. Industries are driven away.
The unemployment probiem appears.
The inevitable result is stagnation.
At the present time the small
town is offered an unrivaled oppor-
tunity to progress and prosper, be-
cause of the trend of manufacturers
away from the great centers of pop-
ulation. And the industrial cities of
the future will be those which, along
with the natural rural advantages,
have a reasonable tax rate and eco-
nomical government.

Plans formulated at the Toledo
track will be followed there. It will
be necessary to erect 52 poles on the
inside of the track. These poles will
be 25 feet in height and each will be
surmounted by a large reflector be-
hind a 1000-watt light. The poles will
be so arranged that the circles of
light from each bulb will overlap to
eliminate shadows.
Maine and New Brunswick rac-
ing stables have evinced much in-
terest in the experiment and it is
expected that there will be a regu-
lar card of racing on each night of
the three days fair.

CAR INSPECTION
CHARGE UNKNOWN.
Whether charge may be made for
inspecting motor vehicles and their
equipment during the compulsory
inspection period recently announced
by Governor John S. Fisher is a mat-
ter for the individual inspector to
decide, according to Commissioner
Benjamin G. Eynon of the Motor Ve-
hicle Bureau.
“The provisions in the Motor Code
authorizing these inspections,” Ey-
non said, “contains nothing whatever
concerning such a fee, but rather
in confined to the statement that
upon proclamation by the Governor
it shall be the duty of this depart-
ment to compel every resident own-
er of a motor vehicle being operated
in this Commonwealth to submit the
vehicle to such inspection of its mech-
anism and equipment as may be
designated by the department.
“Therefore we are not in a posi-
tion definitely to recommend to of-
fical inspection stations that a fee
should be charged although we are
of the impression that the average
motorists would not object to paying
a reasonable fee in order to ascer-
tain whether or not his car is in
safe conidtion. On the other hand,
some portion of the motoring public
may feel that the compulsory fea-
ture of the inspection is being used
as a means to require them to pay
his fee. Certainly no one expects to
reecive much for nothing these days,
and effective work is worth its price,
i but because the law makes no men-
tion of this particular feature we
must of necessity leave the matter
to the discretion of the official in-
specting station.”
The period beginning Oct. 1 and
ending Nov. 15 has been fixed as the
time for inspection. Nearly 2,000,000
motor cars and trucks are to be ex-
amined in forty working days, or
50,000 per day.

PLAN ROAD REPAIRS.
Centre County Commissioners have
begun negotiations with the State
| highway department to enable the
county to make use of a part of its
allocation of $19,000 in State-aid
funds. They plan to rebuild the
| Boalsburg Pike. This road begins at
Axemann, extends over Rishell’s Hill
and ends at Shiloh Church, where it
intersects the State highway between
| Pleasant Gap and State College.

STATE FORESTRY SCHOOLS
ARE FINALLY MERGED.
Announcement is made of definite
plans for the use of the new Penn-
sylvania State Forest school which
has resulted from the merging by
legislative action of the Mont Alto and
State College forestry instructional
facilities. Freshman foresters are to
spend the first year and summer in
camp at Mont Alto and then com-
plete their course at State College
where they will be given opportun-
ity to specialize as professional for-
esters, as lumber industry or wood
utilization specialists, or for private
forestry work. 5
A two year course for forest rang-
ers and forest guards, to be given at
Mont Alto, is provided for those not
prepared to enter the four year
course. Senior foresters will spend
their last two months at Mont Alto
developing a working plan of the
State forests in that section.
