ASK DOG OWNERS
TO PROTECT GAME.
Officials of the Game Commission
ask the co-operation of dog owners
estimation of game
ficers a dog wandering at large is
just as much of a menace to game
as a cat prowling in the woods.
Except during the regular train-
ing season for dogs, which is in ef-
fect August 20 and the end of Feb-
ruayy dog owners are liable to a
fine of $10 for each day dogs chase
game, and $5 for each game bird or
animal killed through such negli-
gence.
owners who permit their dogs to
run elk or deer are likely to be fined
heavily and at the same time the
law provides that any dog caught
in the act of pursuing either of
these animals for one-half mile
or more may be killed regard-
less of whether it bears an identifi-
cation collar and license or not.
No notification of any sort must
be given owner of dogs in such
instances. But, the Game Com-
mission, apreciating the value that
every hunter places upon his dog
always gives warning to such own-
er in the hope he will make im-
mediate effort to remedy the situa-
tion. If he fails to do this, how-
ever, the dog is likely to be killed,
and in addition the law provides for
a double penalty. Owners of the
dogs who are caught chasing small
me are always promptly warned.
4 the case of dogs chasing small
game those bearing the name and
address of the owrder may not be
killed unless the owner refuses to
take action to prevent the creature
chasing game. Dogs without collars
may be killed at any time, however.
All sportsmen are asked to co-
operate with officers of the Game
Commission in this program of dog
control as it is a very important
one—that means not only the saving
of a lot of game, but the preventing
of the killing, in some instances, of
many valuable dogs, The Game
Commission has always been willing
to meet the owners more than
half ways in matters of
kind and will continue to do so pro-
viding the proper spirit is est-
ed onthe part of those owning dogs,
sfficials said.
PORTABLE CAR POLISHER
SPEEDS GARAGE WORK
Electric power instead of “elbow
" works a new car polisher
made in Cincinnati, Ohio. A motor
at its working end drives the buffer
or polisher through angle gears. An
slectric cord, one end of which is
plugged into a light socket, fur-
nishes current to run this new tool,
«hich is controlled easily by means
5f a switch conveniently located in
‘he handle.
Aluminum is used for the motor
-asing and gear cover at the end,
making it light and handy. It is
said to have proved a convenience
around garages or wherever there is
nuch polishing done, saving a great
jeal of time and labor in putting
1 shine on motor cars or bright
netal fittings, It's particular virtue
§ said to lie in the fact that it is
0 light it can be carried easily from
lace to place and operated from
ny electric current socket. The
notor of the polisher will operate
)n either alternating or direct cur:
‘ent.
FIXED SUMS ARE PAID
FOR INFECTED COWS
The amouat of indemnity paid to
owners when cattle react to the tu-
ent
e
of animal industry, Pennsylvania
plained ina statement answering the
question why
the maximum amount of indemnity
for every reactor.
The law fixes the maximum indem-
nity that can be paid by the Com-
be paid the limit for every reactor
regardless of the actual value. This
is incorrect. Under the law, an own-
er cannot receive more than 90 per
cent. of the appraised value of each
reactor from all three sources—that
is, the Federal government, the
State government and the butcher.
the Federal government cannot pay
more than one-third of the differ-
ence between the market value and
salvage.
The procedure for owners to fol-
low is this: After the reacting cattle
have been appraised on the premises,
the owner should immediately ar-
range to sell them to a responsible
butcher or consign them to a com-
mission firm at the Pittsburg or Lan-
caster stock yards. It is desirable to
sell the reactors on foot subject to
post mortem inspection. The advan-
tage of consigning reactors to a pub-
lic stock yard to be sold subject to
inspection, is that the commission
firm represents the owner and grades
the cattle so that the maximum sal-
vage is received for each reactor.
After the owner has arranged sat-
isfactory sale, the reactors are per-
mitted to be moved from the farm to
public stock yards or approved
slaughtering establishment by an
agent of the bureau of animal in-
dustry. Each reactor is required
to be slaughtered under the official
supervision in accordance with the
Federal and State meat inspection
regulations.
CERTAIN SCHOOL BONDS
ARE EXEMPT FROM TAX.
All school district bonds purchased
by the State Teacher's Retirement
Fund, the State Empinyees’s Retire-
ment Fund and the Workmen's In-
surance Fund are exempt from the
four mills Pennsylvania Loans Tax.
“Some of the treasurers of the SP
school districts not aware of this
fact have paid the tax on indebted-
ness owned by such funds. I wish
you would advise the treasurers of
school districts that it takes only a
two-cent stamp and a letter recit-
ing such ownership sworn to before
a Notary Public or a Justice of the
Peace to get such exemption,
“Moreover, I wish you would
advise school district treasurers that
the Department of Revenue has
within the past week instituted the
practice of itself deducting from
loans reported in the Loans Reports
this | .1] such bonds or record in all of
these various funds. The Department
of Revenue does not desire a dollar
of income that under the law is not
due the Commonwealth just as it is
the Department's desire to collect
in full all money due the Common-
wealth under the laws.”
WELL-KNOWN FIRMS
It was Sunday morning in a men's
class in a famous Presbyterian church
school.
“Will you please tell me,” said a
member to the teacher, “how far in
actual miles Dan is from Beersheba?
All my life I have heard the familiar
phrase ‘from Dan to Beersheba,’ but
I have never known the distance.”
Before the answer could by given,
another member arose in the back
of the room, and inquired:
“Do I understand that Dan and
Beersheba are the names of places?”
“Yes.”
“That is one on me. I alwa
thought they were husband and wife,
like Sodom and Gomorrah.”
“Gracious,” said the doctor, “how
did you get these awful bruises on
your shins. Are you a hockey play-
er?
“Oh, no; I just led back my wife’s
weak suit.”

mules carried Anne Dunlop Harris,
her husband, James Harris, with
their three children and servants
over the Seven Mountains. They
came to join Anne Harris’ father,
Colonel James Duntop, who two
by rich iron deposits and purposed
building an iron furnace along Spring
Chegh. He built the first house in
1793.
Anne Harris’ mind was one that
was enthusiastic in building an ideal
home in the wilderness, in helping
to found a town and in writing a
book on metaphysics.
She was born at Skippensburg,
March 14, 1765. In June 15, 1790
she married James Harries, son of
Judge John Harris, Revolutionary
patriot, member of the Provincial
Conference 1776, of the Constitutional
Convention, 1776, and of the Penn-
sylvania Convention to ratify the
Constitution the United States.
James Harris a surveyor. The
site Anne and James Harris selected
for their home was at a beautiful
spot on rising ground. The house,
| still standing, was built of native
limestone, with a Colonial pillared
porch in front. The estate was
christened ‘“Marlbrook,” by Anne
Harris.
Colonel Dunlop and James Harris
laid out the town, and desiring a
suitable name for it, consu'ted the
fertile brain of Anne.
There is a legend in the family
that Prince Talleyrand, pas sing
through the forests of Pennsylvania,
visited at Marlbrook and Mrs. Har-
ris asked him to assist her in choos-
ing a name. Standing before the
Big Spring he said, “Call it for your
ring.” Anne Harris took the idea
and called it Bellefonte.
Colonel Dunlop and James Harris
gave to the town lots for an acade-
my, & courthouse and a Presbyterian
church. They also gave lots to be
sold, the money to be used for the
buildings. They were built in the
classical style of architecture and
created an atmosphere of culture

'LYNCHINGS DOUBLE,
1930 REPORT SHOWS
The ninth annual honor roll, show-
ing States free from lynching in
1930, was announced y by the
Commission on Race Relations of
the Federal Council of churches of
Christ in America.
The record shows that lynchings
took place within five States in 1929.
The number of vici'ms was 21 in
1930, more than deuble the number
the previous year. Of the 21 per-|
sons lynched, one was white and 20
were negroes.
Six States which have been on
| the honor roll because free of lynch-
ing in former years lost their rating
in 1980. These were Alabama,
Georgia and South Carolina, free
since 1921; Oklahoma, free since
1926, and Indiana, which had not
a lynching since 1908. Kentucky
and Tennessee, which lost their
places on the roll in 1929, regained
One son was a physician, one
them by having no lynchings in 1930.
“An analysis of the figures shows
that last year's spread of the evil
was similar to the reactions that
book place in 1924 and 1926,” says
e r A
since 1922 has been toward a fewer
number of victims in a smaller num-
ber of States and a larger number
of cases of lynching prevented of
which there were 40 in 1930.
“This indicates that vigor on the
part of the officers of the law and
an aroused public conscience can
- make America a lynchless land. To
free our territory from the sway of
the mob is a most vital challenge to
all adherents of the churches and to
all patriotic citizens.”
LARGEST
RAILROAD SYSTEM
The extent and scope of the Penn-
sylvania Railroad in America’s na-
tion-wide transportation system and
the largest proportion of the total
railroad service performed hi its
lines is revealed in figures eased
today covering the larger railroads
of the country.
The figures show that with ap-
proximately 10 per cent of the Na-
tion's mileage. the Pennsylvania
performs 20 per cent of the country’s
rs service and 11 per cent
of its freight service.
It employs 11 per cent of the rail-
road workers of America and earns
almost 12 per cent of the total oper-
|ating revenues of all Class 1 rail-
ways. It owns 14 per cent of the
r cars and 12 per cent of
the freight cars. Its locomotives
represent over 10 per cent of the
| total railway engines in use in the
United States with a total tractive
power approximately 12 per cent of
that available on all the railways of
the country.
The Pennsylvania's investment in
road and equipment also resents
more than 10 cent of total
railway pro y investment of the
' country.
