Under the Myers Law the Schools of a Dis trict May be Centralized, The Meyers school bill became a law last week by the governor affixing his signature. Under that act the schools of any district may be centralized, graded and conducted similar to the schools of large towns and cities. The law provides for the transportation to and from the central school house of all scholars, and gives country districts an opportunity to inaugurate a school system such as they are entitled to. A similar law has been in force in other states for several years, and the results have proven most satisfactory. The cost of maintaining a central school is but a trifle above the cost of supporting a number of district schools and in some instances even less. Many country schools are kept open the required length of the school term with an average attendance of but ten to fifteen pupils. If centrally located, the same instructor could teach four to five times the number of scholars. The law is not compulsory, but where it is feasible and put into opera- the measure will be found to LEATHS, ss Prominent Citizens of Centre County Called to Rest, BENJAMIN BEAVER. Benjamin Beaver, of State College, died at his home in that place Friday evening, of pneumonia, He was ill but a few days. For about a quarter of a century Mr. Beaver was employed about the College buildings and for years was chief jauitor. His kind treatment to visitors and students won for him a host of friends. Ben was a familiar figure at the State's leading institution of learning, and always had a kind word for all. He was an Odd Fellow and a member of the Lutheran church. Rev. Alkens per- formed the funeral services Tuesday of th's week, The school children of Centre Hall who had occasion to visit the College in a body a year ago, will recall Mr. Jeaver with pleasure on account of the many little courtesies shown them during their tour of inspection of the main college building.

Notably among those who set out shade trees on a large scale, was J. J. Arvey, who planted Norway maples along the west side of Hoffer street for a distance of nearly two hundred rods, also along the front of his premises west of Centre Hall on Brush Valley road. The Cemetery Association also planted maples liber- ally, as did also the schosl board on the front of the new school lot. Many other residents planted trees on a smaller scale. Centre Hall has many pretty shade trees, and the arbor day of 1901 added many to its list that will be admired in years to come, mm a —— Transfer of Real Estate. John A.
