Mr. Joseph Kleckner, formerly of Cen - tre county, died at Renova, on Sunday, June 21st, where he has been located during the past six months.

Centre Hall has many and beantiful | shade trees lining its streets, and we are | proud of the fact, but at the same time | they are allowed to become a nuisance | through pot trimming and cutting oft the | lower braoches of the trees, allowing | them to hang down and partly obstroct { the pavements. In wet weather they | are doubly annoying when one is pass- ing under them, by the low hanging branches catching the umbrells, uncover ing the individual and sending a flood of water upon him from the lesves which always seem loaded for the pedestrian, Were it not for the water upon the leaves they certainly would wither from the imprecations heaped upon them when a luckless individual! bas been the victim. Cut the branches off and the nuisance will be abated. tl Origin of Loafers. An exchange says: Io the beginning God created the heavens, the earth and all things therein. He then created men and women and left the loafers on the corners, and in due time they multi~ plied and spread into the postoffices, and the depots and the stores, In the latter place they sit and explain state and na- tional problems that bave vexed great minds, and exist partislly by sampling goods. While be is thus engaged his wife is out washing for her neighbors, and the poor helpless children are left at home to care for themselves as best they can. There is nothing more noticeable than a loafer, As A AS Death at Asronsburg.
