Tne distillery as a general rule, is not in operation more than about three months of the year, but this season seemed to be an | exceptional busy season for its proprie. tor. There will be much changing around in the spring here, we will lose some of our old citizens. Some of our singers left Monday to attend the convemtion in progress at Aaronsburg this week. Last week we noticed a couple Centre Hall sports passthrough town in a sleigh, and if they did they were compelled to walk home. Such thoughtless boys should take an express wagon along the next time, The other Sunday morning one of our young ladies came out in a new dress, and it is stated she walked around the whole day, until she thought she had accomplished her work of showing every person, especially the boys, her new dress.

That houses will be scarce here in the spring already seems evident, as there is not a single house for rent in town. It is said that “Snyder’’ cut some fan- cy figures on the ice last week. Miss May Myton stopped at the home of J. N. Brooks while in town last week, A large attended services here on Sunday. YOUNG GARFIL SON OF THE LATE PRESIDEN) TO ENTER POLITICS.
