——The new reinforced concrete
highway bridge over the New York
Central Railroad tracks on traffic
route 53, between Snow Shoe and
Moshannon, has been completed and
opened to traffic, This improvement,
under way since October 9, 1980, re-
places a dangerous overhead bridge,
eliminates a one way crossinganda
right-angle turn. The highway was
relocated for approximately 4 of a
mile and parallels the Pennsylvania
railroad tracks which were formerly
crossed twice in this short distance.
The contract was awarded to David
Bailey, of Morrisdale, Pa. on Octo-
per 1, 1930, at $37,588.97.

“The figures reveal that for the
fiscal year 1930, Centre county con-
tributed in state revenues $16.69 for
each man, woman and child in the
county and received through appro-
priations $51.65 per capita.
The general road program of the
Commonwealth is considered a state-
wide project and is not reflected in’
these figures. The differences, there-
fore, between Centre county's per
capita contributed and its per capita
returned, is the cost per individual
of the general administration of the
state government together with the
vast construction of highways and
their maintenance.
Centre county's returns to the
Commonwealth consisted of receipts
from county officers, including in-
heritance taxes to the amount of
$74,117; motor vehicle registrations,
Etc. $195,120; gasoline tax collec-
tions, $208,005; foreign fire insurance
tax $3,525; corporation taxes

$315,202 or a total of $796,059.
The returns to Centre county by
legislative appropriations for i
year were: welfare $751,360; educa-
tion, $1,388,653; judiciary $9,000;
highways $273,833; miscellaneous
$60,358, making a total of $2,483,-

Based on the 1930 census, the
total receipts of the Commonwealth |
represents a per capita of $17.03. |
while the cost of maintaining the
government of the Commonwealth
for the fiscal year showed a per
capita return of $9.70.

YOUTHFUL MURDERER SOBS
AS HE GOES TO CHAIR
Alexander McClay Williams, 19-
year-old negro murderer of Dela-
ware county, was electrocuted at
Rockview penitentiary on Monday
morning. He went to his doom in
fear and trembling, though he was
able to walk with only slight sup-
port by the guards. He sobbed
from the time he left his cell until
the leathern mask was placed over
his head and was unable to articu-
late the scriptual passages quoted
by his attendant, Father Francis
McCreesh. It was 7.01 when Rob-
‘ert Elliott threw the switch on the P
control panel and five minutes later
the youth was pronounced dead by
Dr. W. A. Barrett. His body was
claimed and sent to Chester for
burial.
Williams, an inmate of the Glen
Mills school for boys, murdered Mrs.
Vida Robare, 36-year-old matron of
the school, on the afternoon of
October 13th, 1930, He stabbed her
more than forty times with an ice
pick. So cleverly had he covered
his tracks that it was three days
before suspicion pointed to him, He
was tried and convicted in January.
The Supreme court refused his ap-
peal for a new trial. His case was
carried to the Board of Pardons and
was held under advisement two
weeks while inquiry was made re-
garding the youth's sanity. Clem-
ency was finally refused.
At his trial Williams implicated
brought to the death house, on Sat-
urday, he gave an official state-
ment exonerating the boy.

'ARE YOUR HANDS IN
YOUR POCKETS?
Did you ever see a boy or a man
get into the habit of keeping his
(hands in his pockets? And coupled

Pockets may be alright to keep

Primarily, pockets were made to
‘carry articles of necessity. One's
‘hands do not need carrying; they
‘hang naturally by the side, when not

could work with them, assist in

and for various other forms of ad-

Then also notice the boys and

‘that the idle, careless, or shiftless
