MANY TURKEYS KILLED - IN CENTRE COUNTY * The wild turkey and squirrel sea- jon came to an end, last Friday, and wccording to an estimate of game srotector Thomas G. Mosier, it was 3 very good season for both kinds sf game. While he has no definite jgure as to the number killed he ex- pressed the belief that in the neigh- yorhood of four hundred wild tur- zeys had been bagged in the county. [f this estimate is any ways near sorrect it will undoubtedly mean ‘hat turkeys are becoming more plentiful every year. —One of Penn State’s promising soccer players for next season was killed in an auto acident recently. The student, Raymond Everberg, of Drexel Hill, was killed when an au- to in which he was riding ran into 2» street car in Steelton. He had been counted on to fill a regular po- sition at k on next year’s team and had played in several games this ieason. : 1500 MINERS IN COLLEGE CLASSES Fifteen hundred coal mine em- ployees have enrolled in the night mining schools now being set up throughout the State by the School of Mines and Metallurgy of the Pennsylvania State College. These schools will operate in seven cities in the anthracite regions and are the result of the cooperation of five coal companies in an extensive employee training program through the de- partment of engineering extension of the college. : College officials, who expected on- ly one thousand students, now an- nounce that a staff of thirty instruc- tors will be maintained, assisted by lecturers from eachof the compa- pies. The training is to be conducted on a three year plan, classes meet- ing twice a week for twenty weeks each year. Elementary, advanced and special phases of mining will be taught by the college instructors, this work being supplemented by talks on practical mining subjects by company officials. Night mine schools in Pottsville, Shenandoah, Mt. Carmel and Tower City are being sponsored by the Phil- adelphia & Reading Coal & Iron company, Maderia, Hill and com- pany, Susquehanna Collieries com- panies and Lehigh Valley Coal com- pany, and those in Scranton, Wilkes- Barre and Carbondale, by the Hud- son Coal company. Company and college officials hope that this practical training will lead to more efficient mining and increas- ed productivity, and thus bring about improved conditions in the coal fields. The Penn State engineering exten- sion department, which is cooperat- ing with this work, has announced that 600 students have enrolled in five night branch schools conducted on the same plan for employees of other industries in Allentown, Read- ing, Erie, Scranton and Wilkes- Barre. Thirty-five class centers are being organized for other education- al service by this department. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. George J. Gregory, et ux, to Peter J. Gregory, tract in State College; $1.

PLAN ANOTHER BUILDING FOR PENN STATE GIRLS Plans to remodel the present min- ing building at the Pennsylvania State College into laboratories and class rooms for the home economics department have been approved by the college trustees. The complet- ed plans call for the remodeling of the existing central unit and the addition of two wings. Home economics instruction at Penn State has been sponsored for almost 30 years by women’s clubs of the State.” They were responsible fot obtaining the first legislative ap- propriation for this branch, and al- ways have held an interest in its progress. Miss Edith P. Chase, head of the department, says that over 200 of the 600 girl students at the college are majoring in home eco- nomics this year. The new building will be on the east campus not far from the recently erected Grange Memorial Dormitory for Girls.

THE FIRST THANKSGIVING ‘The haze of a November morning set a softiness upon the hills and mellowed the bright colors of the falling leaves as it called every man ald Voitian 3 Yu) om out into their ooryar e joy of li hi within them. oy igs. * ge Most of the Colonists, having been farmers in the north of England, now betook themselves to the custom of that section of the country in cele- brating the bringing in of the last harvest sheaf. First a wicker bas- ket was carried into the common house, and festooned with many col- ored ribbons, as gay in its festival array as the people who gathered around it. When the basket was in readiness two maidens lifted it from the ground, holding it between them while the Colonists fell in two by two behind them. For a moment there arose in full song that stirring processional, “The earth is the Lord’s ana the fulness thereof, the world 2 they as dwell therein.” s they marched, they sang, fill- ing the clearing with music. From the path the procession turned into the past the strength of the maidens, two men came forth and gravely raised the basket between them. With quickened step the procession marched back, through the field and down the path to the granary, sing- ing a song of thankfulness. Having finished the marching song Governor Bradford bade all kneel in a half circle around the front of the granary. The elder sent up a peti- tion of thanksgiving for the riches of the earth, forest, and sea which had been bountifully poured on the people. When the elder ceased, one of the maidens approached the granary, un- fastening and throwing open its door. Governor Bradford promptly came forward and plucking a stick from the basket, threw it into the grainhouse. So one by one those who gathered the corn took up a stick and threw it into the granary until only two sticks were left, Priscilla, blushing sweetly, gently dropped one of these in the storehouse. The second maiden now stood forth, holding the last stick of corn. With her head thrcwn back and singing words of praise, she dropped the last sheaf of harvest into the granary, closed he door, locked it and carried the key to the Governor. When this simple ceremony had been completed, all stood with bow- ed heads as again they sang:: The Lord shall preserve thy going out, and thy coming in from this time forth and forevermore.” ‘Tt was garnered the first harvest from the field of the great clearing, and safely housed amid the songs of praise of the people. One of the mai- dens who carried the basket was Priscilla, and one of the men who took it back was John Alden. “Father, what is a high school?” “A football team entirely sur- rounded by rooters, my son.” CRE —————— “Just set the time controls LUMB 1-16-t¢ ‘ ER?
