UNDINE FIRE CO’S FAIR
BIG FINANCIAL SUCCESS.
The street fair of the Undine Fire
company, held three evenings last
week, broke all previous records in
point of attendance and financial
returns, When all the bills have
been paid the company will realize
between $1800 and $2000.
The fair opened at eight o'clock
on Wednesday evening and was pre-
ceded by a big street parade which
was led by Wetzler's Boys band
and included both fire companies of
Bellefonte and the Darktown fire
brigade, of State College. The lat.
ter deserves special notice. It was
originated for State College's big
display on the Fourth of July. It
then proved such an attractive fea-
ture that the fire boys were induced
to go to DuBois on the occasion of
the annual convention of the Cen-
tral Pennsylvania district firemen,
where they won first prize. It is
needless to say that it was one of
the leading features of the Belle-
fonte parade, and the boys are now
considering going to Allentuwn for
the State firemen’s convention.
Recurring to the fair, however,
the three free shows, the music of
Wetzler's band and various attrac-
tions were drawing cards the public
couldn't resist. Because of rain, the
fair was closed on Thursday evening.
There was a good attendance on
Friday evening while Saturday
night the crowd was so large it was
almost impossible to move around.
A new American made Austin
car was given away, Saturday night,
L. Frank Mayes was in charge and
the lucky winner was Clayton
Ripka, an employee of the Clark
garage, at State College, agents for
the car. The winning ticket was
No. 8940.
Members of the fire company ex-
tend their thanks to the people of
Bellefonte and Centre county for
their hearty support and cooperation.
Having made a success of the fair
this year, as evidenced by the lib-
eral patronage, they are already
looking ahead to next year when
they hope to give a bigger and bet-
ter program than that of last week.
RABBIT EXHIBITION
AT THE GRANGE FAIR.
Officials of the Central Pennsyl-
vania Rabbit and Cavy Breeders’ as-
sociation are confident that they will
have an exhibition at the Grange
fair, next week, of from three to four
hundred specimens. For the informa-
tion of exhibitors they say:
All exhibits should arrive on the
grounds Monday, or before 10 a.m.
Tuesday.
All exhibits should arrive on the
turned Friday morning. Local ex-
hibitors may remove their exhibits
after 9 p. m. Thursday. All ex-
press shipments to Centre Hall must
be prepaid.
The show will be housed in a
large tent near the Midway, and
not in the poultry building, as last
year,
A slight hitch in the A. R. and C.
association rules necessitated a
change in judges, and Albert E.
Facey, of Valley Stream, Long Is-
land, will be on hand to place the
exhibits and award prizes.
If you are a breeder of rabbits
don’t fail to be present at the fair
with an exhibit of your best speci-
mens.

MOTHER OF SIX BOYS
KILLED BY OWN SON.
Mrs. John Hamilton, mother of
six boys ranging in age from two
to thirteen years, was instantly kill-
ed on Saturday afternoon, at her
home at Boynton, near Philipsburg,
when a double_barrelled shot gun
was accidentally discharged by her
eight year old son, David, the bul-
let penetrating her abdomen. The
gun was a present to Clifford Ham-
ilton, the eldest son, from his
grandfather, John D. James. The
boy had just taken the gun home
and was showing it to his parents
and brothers. David thoughtlessly
pulled the trigger just as the moth-
er stepped in front of the muzzle.
Coroner W. R. Heaton held an in-
quest and the jury returned a ver-
dict of accidental death.
In addition to her six boys Mrs.
Hamilton is survived by her hus-
band, her father, one sister and two
brothers. Her funeral was held on
Tuesday afternoon, burial being
made in the Umbria cemetery, at
Osceola Mills.

When Harry Went Dry.
Johnstown, Pa. Aug. 12, ’30.
Dear Petey:
No wonder I am dry! I see by
the esteemed Watchman that it is
50 years since I signed the pledge
to abstain from intoxicating liquor
under the spell of that eminent
world_famous Irish orator, Francls
Murphy. And what is more to
the point I have kept that pledge
to this day, despite the fact that I
spent several years in the newspa-
per business and more of them in
advertising, part of these periods at
times when practically everybody in
these lines were drinkers. Is itany
wonder I am dry now?
I did not realize that the Francis
Murphy campaign was so long ago
until I saw reference to it in the
Fifty Years Ago column in the
Watchman last week—for the week
of August 13, 1880, How tempus
does fugit!
Regards to all friends—especially
members of the Bellefonte High
School class of ’89.
