<Clean out your gardens,
Put your rakes and hose away,
“September is upon us
"With its hazy, lazy days.
“Or the frost will catch you napping,
‘When it sweeps across the hill
“To paint the leaves and touch the nuts

“When we gather round the fire
Later on, in winter cold.
For Spring time's new, sweet blossoms
You must now clean out the old. . |

might again list the manufacture of
scales among her varied industrial
enterprises.
I~ On Tuesday evening some of the
members of the local Business Men’s
Association, together with others in-
terested in the welfare of the town,
| met in the court house to consider
a proposal to locate a plant here
for the manufacture of automatic,
recording scales.
i The gentlemen representing the
‘venture were from Pittsburgh and
' New York and all, we believe, have
been associated with the Standard
. Scale and Supply Co.. which indus-
‘try, after having started in Belle-
moved to Beaver Falls in 1902.
Mr. Chappell, an experienced scale
worker, outlined their plans and re-
- quirements briefly as follows: They
‘are incorporated under the laws of
i Delaware and propose a capital
| stock issue of $500,000.00 two shares
‘of preferred to one of common.
$100,000.00 of this is to be sold for
cash on the basis of two shares of
preferred and one of common for
$250.00. An unstated amount of
stock is to remain in the treasury to
provide for expansion shouud the
business necessitate it through
growth and the balance is ito be
used in payments for patents, Etc.
To start with the company should
have a building of 6000 or 7000 sq.
ft. of floor space, preferably on one
floor and would employ from ten
to fifteen skilled mechanics, adding
as sales require more rapid produc-
tion.
It was the thought of Mr. Chap-
pell that Bellefonte should subscribe
for $25,000.00 of the stock. He
stated that arrangements: had al-
ready been made for the sale of the
other $75,000.00 to New York par.
ties.
After considerable discussion it
became apparent that the visitors
were not quite prepared to make a
definite proposal and in order to
give them time for a conference.
Robert F. Hunter, who presided at
the meeting, proposed that a com-
mittee be appointed to meet the
gentlemen at the Penn Belle hotel
Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock
to go into every detail and decide
whether the proposition look hope-
ful enough to call another public
meeting to consider it further.
Mr. Chappell stated that the towns
of McDonald and Carnegie had both
offered them material inducements
to locate there, but upon the insis-
tence of Edward McGarvey, son of
Mrs. Ella McGarvey, of north Spring
street, who is the pantentee of
many of their devices, they had
consented to come and look Belle.
fonte over as a possible location.
At the meeting Wednesday morn-
ing it was again found that the
visitors did not have their proposals
just as definite as the Bellefonte
commictee thought they should be
for presentation to the public. Ac-
cordingly the meeting was adjourned
until tomorrow. Meanwhile the
gentlemen went to New York for
further consultation with their solic-
itors and other interested parties.
STATE TAKES OVER NEW
ARMORY BUILDINGS.
A delegation of officials from the
State Department of Property and
Supplies were in Bellefonte, on Tues-
day, and inspected the new armory
buildings erected on the military
reservation east of Bellefonte. Sat-
isfied that construction had been
completed according to plans and
specifications the buildings were of-
ficially taken over from the con-
tractors and turned over to Capt.
Ralph T. Smith, of Troop L. Capt.
Smith and members of the troop
started, yesterday afternoon, on the
work of moving their horses and
equipment from the stables at Cole-
ville to the new barn, and their
troop equipment from the armory
in this place to the new adminstra._
tion building.
While the buildings have been
completed and ready for occupancy
they still lack water, and next week
work will be started on laying a
pipe line from Bellefonte out to the
reservation. When the pipe line is
laid an automatic booster pump will
be installed to give an ample sup-
ply of Bellefonte water for all nec-
essary uses. It is estimated that
this work can be completed in a
month and until it is done the troop
will get water from the artesian well
at the Triangle filling station.
Just as soon as the troop gets all
of its paraphernalia out of the ar-
mory the Bellefonte school board
will proceed to fix it up for school
purposes. A large room in the
basement will be used for the me-
release one room in the High school
building for other purposes,

freshmen. Game will be called
promptly at 3 p. m., General ad-
mission, $1.00; students, 50 cents.
If necessary the field will be sprink-
led to get rid of the dust.
This opening game should be one
worth seeing as the Smoky city
boys are reputed very strong, quite
a number of old men being in the
line-up.
The Academy kickers will play
their first game under the Pauxtis
system of coaching, which consists
of more open plays and therefore
more interesting to the spectators.
Only one veteran of the strong
1929 Academy team will be in the
line up, Captain Mike Hardy, at
end. 8ix of last year’s second team
are trying for positions. They are
Rosenzwig, Demshar, Park, Nevel,
Manfreda and Ducanis. :
In the squad of forty or more
young men trying for positions on
the team are twenty or more whose
work is showing up fine and the
final selection for the opening game
tomorrow will not be made until af-
ter the final practice this evening,

of the Centre Baptist Association,
which includes all churches in Cen-
tre, Blair, Cambria, Huntingdon and
Mifflin counties, and the 50th an-
niversary of the Woman's Mission.
ary society of the same church,
will be jointly celebrated in a three
day's gathering at the Baptist
church in Milesburg, September
30th to October 2nd, inclusive. The
Centre Association was organized
in the Milesburg church in 1830,
which accounts for the celebration
being held ‘there. Two hundred
or more representatives from the
various churches are expected to
attend, and an especially good pro-
gram has been arranged for the oc-
casion.
The first day will be given over
entirely to the Missionary society.
Mrs. D. S. Bagshaw will preside
and the address of welcome will be
made by Mrs. A. G, Herr. Dur-
ing the afternoon session a duet
will be sung by Mrs. Hazel Glenn
and Miss Grace Herr. The closing
feature of the program, Tuesday
afternoon, will be the “Golden Jubi-
lee Chest,” by Miss Ella Levy. The
chest is ‘a missionary box which has
been inuse in the Milesburg church
for almost one hundred years, and
at Miss Levy's suggestion it is to
be used to collect a golden offering
for the missionary cause.
At the evening sesion Miss Levy
read a paper on “Fifty years
of woman's missionary work in the
Centre Baptist Association.” The
principal speaker for Tuesday eve-
ning will be Miss Frances Tentate,
for a number of years a missionary
(in India, who will tell of conditions

thereafter they never had a chance:
at scoring. Several costly fumbles
enabled Mill Hall to get the ball
near enough to the Bellefonte goal
line to push it over for the only
score. Though defeated Bellefonte
shows promise of development inte
a fair team.
Joe Gingery, playing in the back
field or Bellefonte, was injured dur-
ing a scrimmage and had to be car-
ried from the field. An X. ray, on
Sunday. showed a fracture of one of
the bones in the right ankle which
will probably keep him out of the
ame during the entire season.
PHILIPSBURG BREWERY
RAIDED RECENTLY.
A squad of six prohibition officers
from Lewisburg raided the Philips-
burg brewery, Wednesday of last
week, arrested the proprietor, ; John
Fetzeck, formerly of Wilkes-Barre,
and confiscated 104 barrels and 500
half barrels of alleged beer,
empty gallon tins, two motor trucks,
a sedan and large quantities of malt !
syrup, malt flakes, yeast filtered
mash and other beer making mater-
ials. Fetzeck was taken to Har-
risburg and in. default of $5000 bail
demanded was placed in the Dau-
phin county jail pending a hearing
before United States commissioner
Samuel Lewis. :
The brewery has been operating
for some time past under a permit
to manufacture legal wort and malt.
When the raid was made, last Wed-
nesday, a large crowd of Philips-
burgers gathered around the ‘brew-
ery and fearing they were going to
be mobbed the raiding officers tele-
phoned to all surrounding towns for
State police. Some eight or ten
officers: made quick runs to Philips-
burg but they were not needed as
no effect was made at any time to
interfere with the officers. .

broken above the wrist while her
husband sustained quite a gash on
his head. Both had several : minor
cuts ‘and bruises. They also lost
their basket of groceries but: Mrs.

stream and saw that they got home
all right when a physician was sum-
moned who attended to their in-
