‘John N, Hoffer, eldest brother of
the Herald editor, arrived in Will-
shize on Monday afternoon for a visit
of some days. His home is in Seat-
tle, Wash., and this is his first trip
east of Chicago since going west to
Jowa in 1876. It was in the centen-
nial year that he followed Horace
Greely’s advice to young men and
went to Iowa, then kept moving
west from Iowa to Kansas, thence to
Wyoming and finally to Washington.
During all these years he followed
the calling of district school teacher
—>54 years, practically, without a
break—thirty or more of them in
Washington. He is now 81 years of
age.” Mr. Hoffer, by the way, is a
brother of Mrs, A. C. Mingle, of
Bellefonte, and it was from Centre
county that he started his journey
west over half a century ago.

rsustained painful face injuries, last
Friday evening, when he was hit and

about eight o'clock in the evening.
Mr. Poorman was walking up the
road and the two boys, Henry Mon-
sell and Mr, Poorman’s own son, Har-
ry, were riding down the hill. The
boys had no light on their bike and
it being quite dark Mr, Poorman
could not see them and they did not
see him. The result was they ran
right into him, knocking him down.
He fell with his face in some ground
limestone and sustained numerous
cuts on the left side of his face. He
was brought to a Bellefonte physi-
eian who dressed the injuries, but as
it was his left eye became 80 swol-
len that he was unable to see for
several days. He is now improving.
The boys were both thrown from
their wheel by the collision but es-
caped with trifling injuries.

DEER SEASON YIELDS
LARGE KILL OF BUCKS
Grand Total Will Probably Exceed
the Kill of 1927 Season
The 1929 deer hunting season will
close at sundown tomorrow evening
and from all reports the season’s kill
will probably exceed that of 1927,
when fifteen hundred bucks were
slain in Centre county. Up to last
Saturday evening game protector
Thomas G. Mosier estimated the to- :
tal for the first week at twelve hun- i
dred, and from the number of dead
deer that were hauled through Belle-
fonte on autos and trucks Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, his estimate
was likely fairly correct.
As an estimate of the slaughter |
in general throughout the State it’
might be said that on Sunday, deputy
sheriff Sinie H. Hoy returned home
from a trip to Pittsburgh and on the
way in he counted 102 deer and two
bear being transported westward on
automobiles by different hunting par-
ties. i
In Centre county two dozen or |
more hunting parties got their limit
of six deer and broke camp last
week. A large number of other |
clubs came out of the woods at the
end of the week with three, four and |
five deer, while many hunters who
have not been so lucky will remain
until the close of the season tomor- |
row.
Among the hunting parties that |
got their limit and came out of the |
woods, on Saturday, was the Hecla |
Buck and Bear club. They camped !
in Rag valley and the six deer they |
brought in included a 10-point, 9-point
8-point, 7-point and two 4-pointers,
They averaged in weight from 150 to
165 pounds. The club members are
George H. Yarnell and four sons,
George F. Rush O., Fred C. and |
Philip; Lawrence McMullen, Bruce
Bechdel, Joe Herman, Fred Cleven-
stine, Richard Workman, Charles De-
Armif, Lester Deitrick, William Har-
nish and Robert Funk, The Yar-
nells accounted for three of the
bucks killed. Two. of the deer killed
had split right ears, evidence that
they had been put out as stock deer,
Out in the Alleghenies eight or
ten hunting camps got their limit
the first week, which shows that
deer are more plentiful in that sec-
tion than they have been for a score
of years.
Last Saturday game protector
Thomas A. Mosier made a trip
through the Paddy mountain section
and when he reached the camp of
the Lykens valley hunting club he
was considerably surprised to see
nine bucks hanging up. Members of
the club were making no attempt to
conceal the deer and declared to Mr.
Mosier that they thought they were
entitled to a buck for each hunter.
When apprised of the fact that six
to a camp was the limit, the men
were quite repentant, Mr. Mosier
gave them the privilege of selecting
the six bucks they wanted to keep
and he took the other three, He al-
so let them off with a total fine of
$300, and as there were seveteen
men in camp, it would be less than
twenty dollars for each one. Under
the law each man could have been
fined $300, or a total for the crowd
of $5,100.
Over in Huntingdon county, on
Saturday, a hunting party was fined
a total of $7,690 for killing nineteen
deer, most of them illegal. The men
not only killed bucks but does and
fawns, and attempted to hide their
illegal work. Because of this fact
the limit of fines were imposed by
the the game wardens.
Last Thursday evening three Phil-
adelphia hunters came into Belle-
fonte from the Alleghenies with
three bucks, one of which, a 9-point-
er, weighed 200 pounds. After get-
ting supper here they left for home,
traveling: by automobile,
At Shoff’s Winchester camp, near
Waddle, last week, H, E. Bruce got
a 7-point buck, Frank Clingsmith a
9-point and William Lookbaugh an
8-point. All the men were from
Leechburg, Pa. :
Matthew McMonigal and James
Wilson each got their buck, last
Thursday, up in the vicinity of Port
Matilda,
Up in the Pine Grove Mills sec-
tion the Shoemaker camp got 4 deer,
the Gatesburg club 4, Tadpole nim-
rods 4, the Rossman crowd 4, Pine
Grove Mills club 3, the Baileyville
club and Graysville club each 3, and
the Homan-Corl party 4.
On Monday the Kline-Long hunt-
ing party went into the mountains
on a bear hunt and were successful
in getting a chase filled with thrills.
They had not been in the woods long
until they stirred up a big bear. Ten
or more shots were fired at the ani-
mal without bringing it down. Fi-
nally Fred Gearhart came face to
face with the wounded bear, with
only about fifteen feet intervening.
The bear was pretty wild by that
time and promptly made for Gear-
hart who was compelled to give
ground until he could get his gun to
his shoulder, when a well-directed
shot put an end to bruin.
DIDN'T QUITE, BUT NEARLY SHOOK
HANDS WITH A BEAR
While out with a party of day
hunters last week Earl Frantz, of
Tylersville, came onto a young she
bear so unexpectedly that her front
paws were so close to him that he
didn’t know whether she wanted to
hug him or merely shake hands. He
was crawling through a dense rhodo-
dendron thicket on the north side of
the mountain about opposite Rhule’s
dam on Fishing creek and was get-
ting deeper and deeper into a jungle
with each foot of advance. Sudden-
barrel up and
he could realize what was happening
bruin came out at him standing up
Her paws were almost on his shoul-
ders. It was impossible to get his
gun to his shoulder so he tilted the
gave her one right
back of the front leg. She didn’t
wilt much at that so he pulled again
and down she went dead as a nit.
Both shots had penetrated the heart,
the one breaking two ribs on its way
through her body. The bear dressed
110 lbs. 1
‘WAKENED UP IN TIME TO GET A
BUCK
Last Thursday afternoon William
Cross, of Axe Mann, drove up into
Green Valley, above Pleasant Gap,
to still hunt, William had lost so
much sleep in a regular hunting
camp that he had come from the
day before and it was so still up there
that he decided to take a snooze.
Before submitting himself to the
arms of Morpheus, howev®, he said
to Bill Sunday who was in the car
with him: “Bill, you watch and when
you see a buck waken me.” William
doesn’t know just how long he was
oblivious to his surroundings, but he
thinks it wasn’t long until “Bill”
| started shaking him and yelling in his
ear: “William out there i8 a buck.”
When he had rubbed the ‘‘sleepers”
out of his eyes, gotten his bearings.
and looked around, sure enough,
right in a field in front of them was
a doe and a buck. It didn’t take
long, then, to hop out of the car,
take aim and fire. The buck didn’t
go far for the shot was a deadly
one and he just had to give up the
ghost, It was a nice two pointer and
dressed 110 lbs. Si
Sallying forth alone, on - Monday
afternoon, Forrest W. Tanner, of
Bellefonte, drove down into little
Sugar Valley and started a drive all
by his ownself. He had gotten about
a mile in the brush when he heard
something, It turned out to be a
buck that weighed 140 lbs and
‘sported eight regularly set points.
There’s no guess work about these
details because Forrest brought it
down with the first shot and then
gave him two more so he would stay
down, Really it was a fine deer
and grew heavier each inch of the
mile, a million miles long, that For-
rest had to drag it out to the road
where his car was parked.
Harvey Caris, of Tylersville, hunt-
ing with the Woodward elub, got his
buck, but that’s an every year af-
fair with Harvey. He is one of the
old time hunters who know just
where the deer are coming out and
how to bowl them over when they
do.

The effort to reduce the heavy toll
of tuberculosis in the young age is
an important reason for buying and

tuberculosis movement is one of con-
structive purpose and method to
check the white plague. The asso-
ciation puts special emphasis on pre-

The Bellefonte committee appre-
ciates the generous response to the

but in the busy rush of busy lives
some have evidently mislaid the ap-
peal sent to them. The local com-
mittee has a list of worthy cases
that need attention now if these
needy ones are to be heiped and oth-
ers kept safe, “Myself and Others”
is an easy slogan to put into prac-
tice.

NUTRITION DISCUSSED
AT D. A, R. MEETING
Just one hundred and fifty-two
years have passed since the indomit-
able patriots of the Revolution were
braving the rigors of the Valley
Forge winter. That the Daughters
of the American Revolution is an
organization that strives not to be
unmindful of what is bequeathed to
us through such suffering was evi-
denced by the reports of the various
commttees -at the December meet-
ing of the Bellefonte Chapter at the
Brockerhoff house, on Friday even-
ing last. * La
The chairman of the Student Loan
Fund committee, Mrs, P. B. Brenne-
man, of State College stated that
this year four students have thus
far received help.
The regent, Miss Lucretia Van
Tuyl Simmons, told of a museum in
Memorial Continental Hall, Wash-
ington, D, C., where relics and ob-
jects of historical interest would be
gladly received and cared for.
The members of the chapter stood
for a moment in silence in memory
of Mrs. Louise VanTries Harris.
Again, this month, the chapter
was privileged to hear an able and
learned address by a member of the
Pennsylvania State College faculty.
Dr. Raymond Adams Dutcher, pro-
fessor of animal husbandry, and a
scholar of wide renown, who spoke
most interestingly upon the subject of
“Nutrition,” telling of the work be-
ing done in his department to de-
termine the comparative values of
the various food elements, and
stressing the importance of variety
in the diet of botn man and animal.
The singing in chorus of beauti-
ful Christmas hymns was a higher
expression of the season’s joyousness
that pervaded all the activities of
the evening.
Much regret was expressed at the
absence of three of the hostesses of
the evening, Miss Myra Humes Miss
Sara Benner and Mrs, Clevan Dinges.
To them and to those present, Miss
Helen E. C. Overton, Miss Delinda
Potter and Miss Tillie Keller, a
hearty vote of thanks was due for
their beautiful provision of the “nu-
tritive element” in most palatable
form. x3
