Where Doctors Don't Benefit Undertakers,
Centre Hall, although one of the
healthiest little towns beneath the sky,
boasts of four physicians, with a pos
sible fifth disciple of Aesculapius now
entering his last course of lectures at
Baltimore. Millheim, Aaronsburg,
and Rebersburg, have one doctor each,
while Madisonburg, Woodward, Co-
burn and Pleasant Gap have no doe-
tors and depend upon pills being sup-
plied by outsides.
As we have only one undertaking
establishment, and it not being kept
busy, would indicate that our doctors
are doing safe work in rescuing their
patients from the grave,
