‘EW HYDRAULIC PUMP
ORDERED BY COUNCIL
ontract Executed for Equipping
Gamble Mill for Pumping
Water.
Borough council at a regular
eeting on Monday evening, official-
authorized the execution of a
)ntract for the purchase of a water
heel and pump for installation at
le Gamble mill to be used as addi-
onal hydraulic facilities for pump-
g water in anticipation of doing
vay with the electric pumps. The
‘tion of council was brought to a
sad, no doubt, by the reading of a
)mmunication from borough solici-
r N. B. Spangler in which he stat-
{ that the purchase of the mill
-operty had been made for the pur-
yse of installing a hydraulic pump-
g system, and if council failed to
y so and attempted to lease the
ill or devote the plant to any oth-
- use they would undoubtedly cre-
e a complicated legal situation the
sult of which could not be fore-
1d.
On the strength of the above ad-
ce Mr. Cunningham, chairman of
e Water committee, stated to
uncil that C. A. Styles, of the
sranton Electric company, Was
.esent and would inform council as
the proposed equipment and an-
ver any questions asked. Mr. Styles
as introduced and displayed pic-
res and tentative blue prints of
e wheel, pump and speed reducer
1d stated that they were the best
anufactured and in his judgment
ould furnish ample equipment for
sllefonte. The price of the wheel
\d necessary parts is $990 and the
ump and speed reducer $3996, a to-
1 of $4986. Mr. Styles stated that
will probably take three months
get the machinery ready for de-
rery. Mr. Cunningham suggested
at council place the order for the
heel and pump now and decide on
e kind of pipe to be used at a
ter meeting. Mr. Mignot made a
otion that the president and secre-
ry be authorized to execute the
ntract for the purchase and the
otion was seconded by Mr. Kline.
fter a little further discussion the
\estion was put and passed without
dissenting vote.
When council convened secretary
silly read a communication from
e wardens and vestry of St. John's
siscopal church protesting against
e closing of any portion of Lamb
reet for school purposes.
The Street committee reported
ying 42 feet of 12 inch sewer pipe

The Water committee reported re-
jrs dt the Phoenix building, col-
stion of $72.50 water rent and
3.35 rent on buildings. Also that
e 1929 water duplicate, totaling
2,609.50, had been turned over to
r. Seibert for collection, and with
eter bills for the year of approxi-
ately $8132.68 will make the
iter resources for the year $20,-
2.18.
Mr. Cunningham stated that he
d investigated the requests for
iter made by S. G. Roberts, on
ilson street, and Walter Reickert,
Burnside street, and to furnish
em with ample water facilities will
quire the installaion of a booster
mp on Burnside street. The cost
' put the water at both places

1s authorized to go ahead with the
stallation.

e Pitometer company is now at
yrk making a test of the Belle-
ate water system for leaks but he
d no report as to what they have
and. In this connection he had

ec Water committee, showing that
Jllefonte’s consumpion of water
en was 80 gallons per capita, and
at was before the days of the ex-
asive use of bath tubs, with no
tomobiles to wash and practical-
no water being used in any com-
srcial way.
The Finance committee reported a
lance in the hands of the borough
sasurer of $7454.77. Request was
wde for the renewal of notes aggre-
ting $6500, and that a note of

BELLEFONTE WOMAN
WINS $500.00 PRIZE.
During the past summer, the
Duplex Envelope company, of Rich-
mond, Virginia, manufacturers of
church envelopes, conducted a con-
test to secure the best possible
messages to be printed on the backs
of their 1931 series. Awards rang-
ing in amount from $1000 to $25
were offered for the best messages
submitted.
In this contest several
manuscripts were
thousand
received from
ministers, ministers’ wives, editors,
authors, public men, church treas-
urers, church secretaries, Sunday
school teachers from large churches
and small churches—from city
churches and rural churches, in
forty-six States, representing more
than thirty denominations. Several
months were required for the read-
ing and classification of this wealth
of really remarkable material be-
fore the judges could make their
The requirements were a sub-
ject, a text from the Bible, a 1it-
tle sermonette of not more than
one hundred words on the text and
a suggestion for an illustration to
be prepared by their artists.
Having been deeply impressed by
a sermon preached in the Bellefonte
Presbyterian church by the Rev.
william C. Thompson, in July last,
and thinking it should have a wider
hearing, the financial secretary of
the church, Miss Olive Mitchell pre-
pared a little manuscript in accord-
ance with the rules of the contest
and sent it in to the Duplex com-
pany. To her great surprise she has
just received notice that her manu-
script has been awarded the second
prize of $500.00, a check to her for
that amount accompanying the no-
tice.
Following is the text and sermon-
ette she submitted:
THE RESIDUE
«And the residue thereof He
maketh a god.”—Isaiah 44:17.
How !s it with us? Are we fol-
lowing in the footsteps of the old
heathen of whom the prophet Isaiah
wrote, with fine irony, who cut down
a tree and with part of it warm-
ed himself, with part of it cooked
his food and of the residue thereof
made a god?
Does God receive the residue of
our time, our strength and our serv-
ice after we have wearied our-
selves with pleasure and business,
and the little money we have left |
after spending lavishly upon our-
selves, or do we bring to Him the
first fruits and best of all we have? |

JAMES K. BARNHART |
HURT IN AUTO ACCIDENT
On Thanksgiving afternoon James
K. Barnhart, cashier of the First |
National bank, of Bellefonte, drove !
out to the home of Charles Reese, |
on Allegheny mountain, and took his
gun along in the event a big bear
might try to climb into his machine.
There was considerable snow and |
ice on the mountain road and as he
was returning home, about 4:30 |
o'clock his car began to skid on the |
ice just above Runville and hoping
to stop its cavorting around he |
threw on the brakes, and the result
was the car catapulted head-on into |
the same concrete culvert where the
Beech Creek bank robber’s car was,
wrecked two months ago. |
Autoists from Clearfield happened
along right after the accident and
they brought Mr. Barnhart to Belle-
fonte and took him to the Centre’
County . hospital. He sustained |
a number of cuts on the head and
face and an injured left knee. The
steering post was badly bent by the
impact of his body when he was |
thrown against it, and it was feared
he might have suffered internal in-
juries, but at this writing all chest
he is now on a fair way to recovery.
Quite a number of wrecks ocurred
on Thanksgiving day because of the
slippery condition of the highways,
but no serious injuries resulted, al-
though cars were more or less dam- !

mately 90 per cent. of all the wal-
nut produced is used in the manu-
facture of furniture, fixtures and

ments, and planing mill products.
Three hundred and fourteen distinct
articles or parts are listed as being
made from the wood of black walnut.
There is probably less black wal-
nut in Pennsylvania today than
any other commercially important
timber tree. It still occurs locally
throughout the State but is rare in
the northern part, where it is often
entirely absent over large areas. The
best trees in the State developed in
the fertile, agricultural valleys of the
southwest, eastern and central part
where walnut occurs as scattered
specimens among other hardwoods,
in fields and along fence rows, or
forms small pure groups on the
edge of the forests.

2! BELLEFONTE COOKS ELECTRICALLY
ih . s here is why!
Richer flavor . . when food
is cooked electrically
Electric-oven cooking gives meals the rich, appetizing
flavor that sharpens appetites. For so little evaporation
takes place within the oven that all the savory, natural
juices are retained. Dried-out meats and watery vege-
tables have no place on the modern electric-oven menu.
Instead, even the chéaper cuts of meat are juicy, tender,
lusciously browned . . . and vegetables are cooked to
such’ succulent perfection that second helpings are the
order of the day.
That is more, it is a simple matter to get a delicious,
rourishinyg oven dinner with an electric range. The range
jtself does the watching and waiting and tending, auto-
matically— relieving you of all responsibility. You merely
prepare the food. . .placeitintheoven. . . set the
