became a direccor of the Carnegie
library. Some eleven or twelve years
ago he moved to Ann Arbor, Mich.,
where he lived until his death.
Dr. Leéte was a promotor and ar-
dent patron of all kinds of sports.

ferent societies and fraternities and

SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS
GET FIFTY YEAR MEDALS.
———— i
An interesting feature at the

The pumper was driven here from
Allentown, where it was manufac-
tured, by a representative of the

to make the trip, as the big:fire

various towns enroute. When mem-
bers of the Undine company learned

eral of the firemen got onto the wide
running board and road all the way
to Bellefonte on it.
On Monday afternoon the truck was
given a tryout on Spring creek, in
the rear of the Beatty garage, and
there is no question about it throw-
ing a powerful stream.
The purchase of the pumper was
authorized by borough council six
months ago, or to be exact, on April
15th. The cost price is $11,000, half
of which is to be paid by council and
half by the company. The acquisition
of the new pumper is supposed to
result in a lowering of the insurance
rates in Bellefonte.
In order to satisfy themselves that
the new apparatus is not too long to
be quickly handled in our streets and
alleys the Undines ran it through
them all. They experimented spe-
cially at all corners where streets are
narrow or turns are difficult from
other causes. They had no difficulty
any where. While the truck is 38
‘feet long the apparatus at State Col-
lege is exactly the same length and
firemen of that place say they have
no difficulty because of its length.
The Undines are exceedingly grate-
ful to all who helped them to pro-
cure this very modern fire fighting
machine.

PENN STATE STUDENT
FLIES TO COLLEGE.
Stephen J. Derry, of Universal,
near Pittsburgh. isa Sophomore at
State College, and being one of the
thrifty kind, decided to hitch-hike it
to the institution at the opening of
college several weeks ago. He wasa
little’ late in starting but pinning a
State pennant on his back he set
forth, hoping for the best. His first
lift on the road was a short one
but his second was with a stranger
in a snappy roadster to the airport
at Altoona.
~ “Let's take a ship from here,”
casually remarked the driver of the
roadster! “I'll drop you at the Belle-
fonte airmail field.” Derry scram.
bled into the cockpit of a two-seater
and almost before he realized it he
was deposited at the Bellefonte field.
Another lift in a car to State Col-
lege and he arrived just in time to
enter his registration. x
