Former editor E. H.

Mr. Hann will remove his mill from the Corner to the Da vid Nelson farm to cut some fine timber this winter. . Isaac D. Bolinger, ShaJo Gap's hustling blacksmith and buggy dealer, came to McConnellsburg in his automobile last Friday morning and took the family of Alvey Pine to Shade Gap. Mr. Pine, who has been living on east Walnut street and working for J. W. Mellott, is moving to Shade Gap and will work for Mr. Bolin ger. According to a statement of a Chambersburg newspaper, there are two citizens of that town who are believed to be paid German spies. It is said that there are several thousand such men in the United States to-day who are be ing paid to do all in their power to hinder the manufacture and shipment of munitions and other war supplies for the Allies. Mr. and Mrs. Carson Batt and son Walter, and Amos Mellott, came over from Johnstown in an automobile on the 7th inst, and spent the time until Wednesday in the home of Mr. and Mrs Geo. W. Humbert in Ayr township. Then they went over to Mr. and Mrs. Hatfield's, spent a day or two, and then went on to Ed Swope's returning to their home last Sunday. While here they spent some time in the woods , and were rewarded by getting a nice lot of game. Mrs. D. M. Rinedollar of Ayr township, and Mrs. Amanda Pott of Crestline, 0., favored the News office with their presence a short time last Friday morning, After having Bpent two weeks visiting her daughter Miss Lil lian who is studying to be a train ed nurse in one of the hospitals in Philadelphia, and Prof. G.

Vrhat a Crack Will Do. Everybody knows that it hurts neither a human being nor any farm animal to sleep in cold air if there is no movement of the air called a draft. To produce a draft there must be two open ings, and everybody knows that a draft will cause colds wheth er in human beings, or in swine, poultry, or other farm animals. Nothing produces a draft so well a3 little cracks in the floor or near the floor-of hogpens. They act exactly as front dampers to a stove. We speak advisedly when we state that a little crack like mentioned, which would cost perhaps, a cent to repair, will necessitate the feeding of sever al more bushels of corn to make hogs in winter as fat as they would have been without the cracks. This is not 'foolishness' It is sound doctrine, proven by many experiments. Let poultry and hogs have fresh air, but be sure that it comes from above them not up through the bed ding, where, if there is a crack, cold air will enter by reason of the body heat rising as in a flue. Get Your into Tags Early. State Highway Commissioner Cunningham has taken occasion to emphasize the necessity of ap plying early for automobile licen ies for 1916. "i'any owners of automobiles who have been putting off apply ing for licenses for next year will find themselves in difficul ties if they leave it too long," said the Commissioner. "The automobile division of the State Highway Department is endeav oring to forestall the usual rush of applications at the end of each year and hopes to be able to issue nearly all of the licenses before December 31, but unless applica tions are made early it will be impossible to get the new li cense plates and registration card to their owners before January 1 and those who attempt to oper ate their cars after the first of the year with 1915 tags render themselves liable to arrest on sight, either by city police or by the State police, A word to the wise I deem sufficient" Gets Nine Thousand a Year. John F. Garber, a native of Penn township, Cumberland county, and a graduate of the Cumberland Valley State Normal at Shippensburg, has been chosen superintendent of schools in the city of Philadelphia at a salary of nine thousand dollars a year, iVl. G. Brumbaugh held this posi tion before he became governor of Pennsylvania. OLDER BUT STRONGER To be healthy at seventy, prepare at forty, is sound advice, because in -the strength oi middle life we too often forget that neglected colds, or careless treat ment of alight aches and twins, simply undermine strength and bring chronic weakness for later years. To be stronger when older, lep your blood pure and rich and active with the strength-building and blood-nonr sbing properties of Scott's Emulsion whi :h isa food, a tonic and a medicine to keep your blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scott's, fcott ft Bowse, Bioom&tld, v. J. Open Winter. Elias Meyer, a farmer and goosebone prophet living south west of Annville, Lebanon coun ty, reports that the coming win ter months will not be as cold as is commonly thought He pro phesies that snow will not lie until the month of February and an early spring season will allow farmers to begin their work ear ly.

FUNK DEALER IN -:- High Grade Plain Pianos, Playq Pianos, Organs, Victrolas, Rec ords, and Professional Tu ner, McConnellsburg, Nothing adds more to the refinements of home than ' good music. To have good music you must have a good instrument. There are good bad -and indifferent instru ments, and to the unskilled eye they look much alike. The unprincipled dealer is" likely to make you pay a first-class price for a fourth-class instrument. I have lived in this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and in a position to make good any business transactions. Buy your piano, organ, or victrola from me and if it 's not all right you can come back at me. There are families in every part of this county that haVe purchased instruments from me. Ask them about me,. Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano, or Player Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See me. Let's talk it over. L. W. FUNK, Th :ija ear ah v; 36 M
