The Belefonte Academy is among
534 public and private schools which
have been accredited for 1930 by the
commission on secondary schools of
the Association of Colleges and Sec-
ondary Schools of the Middle States
and Maryland, according to an-
nouncement made by Dr. E, Duncan
Grizzell, chairman of the commis-
sion. 2
The commission, which has offices
serves as a fact-finding and rating
agency in the preparation and main-
tenance of a list of accredited sec-
ondary schools within its territory,
and also as a clearing house for in-
formation of a professional charac-
ter concerning these schools,
Approval essential to membership
on the accredited list is based funda-
‘mentally on the efficiency of the
school’s preparation for college work,
among the most important factors
considered being membership on a
list approved by a state department
of education, membership in good
standing on the accredited list of
several colleges and universities, the
records of the school in various ex-
company pumpers were elected as
follows:
Logans—Arthur Boob, James C.
Bower, Miles Steele and Earl Custer.
with Robert Garman and G. Mac
Gamble as reserve or emergency
drivers,
Undines, for Mack pumper—Knise-
Carpeneto as an emergency driver.
White pumper—Gillen, Bottorf, Paul
Haag and Frank Smith, with Ralph
Haag as an emergency man.
Borough treasurer J. L, Carpeneto’s
bond in the sum of $20,000 was pre-
sented and approved. |
President Walker called the atten- |
tion of the committees to the fact
that council should adopt the budget
system and he urged them to give
the matter serious consideration un-
til the next meeting of council.
Bills totaling $2162.83 were ap-
proved for payment after which
council adjourned,

in their report to the stockholders:
“We find after a thorough audit all
property pertaining to the busi-
ness of the Bellefonte Trust com-
pany to be in excellent shape.’
After the meeting of the stock.
holders a sumptuous banquet was
held at the Penn Belle hotel, with
more than 100 guests present. Mr.
L, Charlton Haines, of the Provident
Trust company, Philadelphia, was
the speaker of the day. He gave
very interesting and intructive talks
on’ the subjects, “Life Insurance
Trust Agreements” and “Business
Trust Agreements,” He explained the
importance of placing one’s life in-
surance in trust with a Trust com-
pany for the benefit of his dear
ones rather than have it paid to
them in a lump sum at his death.
He also stated that it was good busi-
ness for partners in business to car-
ry life insurance so that in case -of
death” during the partnership a
prompt and easy settlement could be
made with the proceeds of the life in-
surance and the business continued
without loss, PL. AT
Music for this splendid meeting
was in charge of Mr. and Mrs. Rus-
sell Blair, The violin solos played by
Mrs. Louis Schad were without doubt
the best ever heard. The double
quartet rendered very high-class
music and sang effectively and in
perfect harmony. In fact, everybody
sang and left the meeting with the
hope that the Bellefonte Trust com-
pany would have many more pros-
perous years.
