If there is another
store in Centre coun-
ty that can show a
larger variety and can
offer so many induce-
ments for
Holiday Shoppers
as The Racket, we'll
“fold our tents like
the Arabs and as si-

Put The Racket on
the list as the place
to make your pur-
chases and you will
not make a mistake.

named Wolf, whose house, back of
Boalsburg he alleged had been burned,
and that Wolf was too poor to be in-

He obtained altogether about $8 in our
