We were honored with a pleasant call, on Sunday aftervoon, by the Hon. Barber Beck, of Bellefonte, who was accom- panied by a beautiful Bellefonte lady. | We were, however, disappointed as we thought he was going to invite us to his wedding, but he didn’t. John F.

Wheu the fire alarm was given, Joe was in his first nap and when aroused by the cry of fire, be thought going to burn.

It will be equipped with a general line of gymuasium apparatus, | games of various sorts, healthy literature, etc. The move is a good one and if pro- perly conducted will be conducive of much good to the young people of our town. Say, Charley, in the first column of local items in your last week's issue was an item stating that a lady fell from a step ladder and ‘‘sustained a fracture of the limb" —was it an apple limb or a cherry limb or a limb of the law? or if she broke one of her own limbs, was it an upper or a lower limb ? or to be more concise, did she break an arm or a Jeg? If an arm, was the fracture above or be- low the elbow 7 if a leg, was it above or below the knee ! You should be more ex. plicit in giving important news items. (If Domino desires further information, be can inquire personally; but when a fellow becomes too inquisitive over such matters, he is liable to have his head broke.--Ep.) From observation and the best infor. mation we can obtain, the growing grain crops were never more promising than they are st present. The apple crop is not yet damaged by the late frosts. Peaches, plums and cherries are consid. erably damaged. It is my opinion that there will be an unusually light crop of all kinds of fruits this season in this sec- tion, Hoy School District.

B Hepler notified the Board, of the Lemont Presbyterian church that he would leave his charge about Mav 1st, 1903 and go to Ansomville, Clearfield county. To many of his friends this announcement Was a great surprise as they never enter. tained a thought of his departure. His decision was so strong that the board was finally compelled to accept his resigna- tion and look around elsewhere for an. other man. Never has there been a minister in Lemont who did so much material good as well as being a spiritual benefactor as Rev. Hepler. He brought the congregation from an almost divi condition to one of sincere oneness, against the moral delinquencies of the world. In his eight years pastorate he has done much to advance the spiritual interest of the church, there being 108 accessions made to the congre gation, exclusive of the large number in which be was instrdmental into other churches. He and his family left Monday morn. ing for their pew location where he ex.
