“HELL'S ACRES” AND
=e
“AVIATOR'S GRAVEYARD”
Coming to the editor's desk, last
week, was the following:
December 11th, 1929
Democratic Watchman,
Bellefonte, Pennsylvania.
I am doing my Christmas shop-
ping early which explains the en-
closed check for two year’s advance
subscription to the Watchman.
I enclose a clipping from the New
York Times, which you may have
seen, and from which it would ap-
pear that your cowboy nitwit jok-
er is getting back at Bellefonte
for the little squib you handed
him some months ago as to the dis-
tinction between a fool and a clown.
This unfortunate accident to the avi-
ator happened many, many miles
from Bellefonte and could have been
saddled onto many other towns as
well. To the best of my recollection
Bellefonte has not contributed to so
many fatal accidents as to compare
with the sudden deaths, murders,
etc., of Rogers’ own immediate vicin-
ity, which of course includes Holly-
wood.
With best wishes of the season, I
am
yours,
Sincerely
B. WILLIAMS
C.
The clipping to which Mr, Williams
refers was Will Rogers’ tribute to
the lost air pilot, Thomas P. Nelson,
published in the New York Times of
December 7th, and was as follows:
Beverly Hills, Cal, Dec. 6
Our foreign friends always accuse
us of being a loud, boisterous na-
tion. Well, if you don’t think Amer-
ica can stand still and keep its
mouth shut you just watch it as I
have today when Hagen and Diegel
are putting.
The morning paper states, “An-
other mail pilot found crashed on a
hillside.” Well, he might have been
just another pilot to that newspap-
er, but he was more than that to
me. This same boy Nelson, and
right out of that same grave yard
of aviators, Bellefonte, Pa., tried to
get me through those mountains to
New York one stormy night. He
set he and I down that night in a
pare spot no larger than a film ac-
tress’s living room in my first forc-
ed landing, and without a scratch.
So you wil pardon me if I look on
him as a little more than ‘just an-
other pilot.” He was my first hero.
Yours;
WILL ROGERS
Bellefonte and the Allegheny
mountains have repeatedly been re-
ferred to as “Hell's Acres” and the
“Aviator's Graveyard,” phrases coin-
ed by a certain newspaper man at
the time of the tragical crash of
Charles H. Ames. The airmail has
been carried over this route eleven
years and during that time fewer pi-
lots have lost their lives in the Alle-
gheny mountain section than have
fallen to their death on the plains of
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois or the
low-lands of New Jersey.—ED

: CASH GIFT APPRECIATED
Mr. Editor: :
One of the most delightful sur-
prises ever experienced by the writ-
er was a donation of $25.00 recently
mailed to him by the Moose Lodge,
of Bellefonte, to help defray the
heavy expenses involved in main-
taining the athletic life of the Belle-
fonte Academy. |
The spirit that inspired such &
generous gift is beautiful and all in-
terested in the success of the Acad-
emy will feel most profoundly
grateful to the Moose Lodge for
the real inspiration the gift will
afford. It is a pleasure to publicly
acknowledge such a splendid il-
lustration of the Yuletide spirit.
Very cordially yours,
JAMES R. HUGHES.

The electric oven
takes full charge of
cooking delicious meals |
An electric range does exactly what a cook would do
. . . relieve you of cooking responsibility after the food is Re
prepared. It does the tedious watching and waiting. It :
automatically keeps the temperature just right for the
perfectly browned and deliciously tender result.
COOKS ELECTRICALLY
. . . here is why!
>
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 1
You can be out of the kitchen during the entire cooking
period.
All you have to do is place the food in the oven and set
the time and temperature regulators. The current comes
on at just the right moment and is shut off at just the
right heat. So little evaporation takes place in the tightly
sealed oven that there’s no need to baste meat or add
water to vegetables.
And everything goes farther, too! Home economists
have estimated that about twenty per cent less shrinkage
takes place in an electric oven. And the savory juices that
are retained enhance flavor and make the simplest of
electric-oven cooked meals both appetizing and nourish-
ing. Cook electricaily for economy!
