GEORGE PRIDIBLE |COUNTY THIRD IN
1S MADE KNIGHT OF
ST. GREGORY ORDER
Bishop McCort of Altoona Dio-
cese Has Charge of Cere-
monies on Monday.
ONE OF HIGHEST HONORS
FOR CATHOLIC LAYMAN
St. Mary’s church, Patton, was well
filled on Monday afternoon at five o’-
clock by members of the congregation,
priests of the Altoona diocese and nu-
merous business associates of Geo. E.
Prindible, the occasion being the in-
vesture of Patton's foremost citizen as
a Knight of the Order of St. Gregory
the Great, one of the highest honors
that can be bestowed upon a Catholic
layman. The Knighting of Mr. Prindi-
ble was at the instance of Pope Pius
XI, whose edict elevating the Patton
man to knighthood was read by the
Rev.Father Henry, O. S. B., pastor of
St. Mary's church.
The Papal Orders were read by Fa-
ther Henry in Latin and the transla-
tion also was given, following which]
Mr. Prindible entered the sanctuary |
and was declared a Sir Knight of the
Gregorian Order by the Rt. Rev. John
J. McCort, D. D., bishop of the Altoona
diocese. In honoring Mr. Prindible in
accordance with the papal edict, Bish-
op McCort spoke in glowing words of
the work of Catholic laymen of the
type of George E. Prindible and Dr.
John B. McAneny, the latter of Johns-
own, who also has been selected for
Knighthood in the Order of St. Greg-
ory. The Johnstown physician was in
attendance at the Prindible ceremon-
ies.
The Bishop stated that while there
are other Catholic men in the diocese
deserving of Knighthood, Sir Knight
Prindible was chosen as a representa-
tive of deserving men for the manner
in which he has modestly championed
worth while ideals, his Christian char-
ity, and above all the rest his practice
of his faith in the same humble man-
ner as his fellow parishioners, despite
the fact that he has been blessed in
a worldy manner—a fact that some-
times leads men away from things re-
ligious.
Bishop McCort celebrated the bene-
diction of the Blessed Sacrament, as-
sisted by the Rev. Father J. E. O’'Con-
nor, pastor of St. Edward's church, of
Barnesboro, and the Rev. Father Al-
phonse, O. S. B.,, of the Holy Cross
Church, Spangler. Members of the
Fourth Degree Assemblies of the K. of
C. over the north of the county, were
present in full regalia, and the Carr-
olltown members formed a cross and
presented arms during the benediction.
Among the priests present'were the
Rt. Rev. Mons. John N. Codori, L. L.
D., V G., Johnstown; Victor Frankof-
sky, Barnesboro; the Rt. Rev. Mons.
Hugh M. O'Neill, Ebensburg; Pollard
Farren ,St. Augustine; James Padden,
Chest Springs; William Griffin, John
Sullivan, the Rev. Dr. John P. M.
Doyle, T. O. R., and Raphael Breheny,
T. OR. Loretto; Francis Smythe, T. O.
R., and Charles Smythe, T. O. R., Bar-
nesboro; the Very Rev. Thomas Wolf,
O. S. B,, Raphael, O. S. B,, and Berth-
old, O. S. B., Carrolltown; Marinus, O.
S. B., Nicktown; Stephen Weiland, O.
S. B., Hastings; Modestus Wirtner, O.
S. B, St. Boniface; Adrian, O. 8. B,,
Patton; James Graven and Innocent
Strittmatter, Cresson; George Quinn, |
Spangler.
Following the church ceremonies Mr.
Prindible was the guest of honor at a
banquet at the New Palmer House,
where members of the family, clergy
headed by Bishop McCort, and a few
invited guests gathered to honor the
distinguished layman. The Rev. Father
James Graven, pastor of St. Francis
Xavier's Catholic church, Cresson, was
toastmaster. Mr. Prindible was lauded
in short talks by Bishop McCort, Dr.
Codori, Father Henry and Dr. Doyle.
Responding with characteristic re-
ticence, Mr. Prindible declared that,
while the high honor came to him un-
expectedly, he also believed it came
undeservedly. Since the Supreme Pon-
tiff saw fit to bestow the unusual hon-
or upon him for merit manifested dur-
COAL PRODUCTION
Department of Commerce Fig-
ures on Output for 1928
Gives High Rating
Pennsylvania continues to lead all
other states in the total value of coal
production according to the latest fig-
ures compiled by the United States Bu-
reau of Mines, Deparment of Com-
merce. The total value of the coal pro-
duced by the mines in the state in
1928 was $643,533.000. Of this $393,638-
000 was contributed by the anthra-
cite mines and $249,895,000 by the bi-
tuminous mines. In comparison with
the year preceding the total value
shows a decrease of 7 per cent and)
the total tonnage a decrease of 3 per]
cent.
The production of bituminous coal
was 131,202,163 tons. Fayette County
continued to lead all other bituminous
counties in the State with a total pro-
ducion of 29,564,000 tons. Next in order
came Westmoreland County with 16,-
729,000 tons, Cambria County with 15,-
012,000, Washington County with 14, -
776,000 and Allegheny county with 13,-
393,000 tons.
In comparison with 1927, the record
for 1928 shows a tendency to concen-
trate production of bituminous coal in
a smaller number of more efficient
mines. The nuber of commercial bi-
tuminous mines in operation decliner
from 1,831 to 1,557, but the number of
Class 1 mines, that is mines producing |
200,000 tons or more, increased from
174 to 189. The output per man per
day increased number of men were em-
ployed ,but those remaining on the!
payrolls were given more steady em-
ployment. The total number at work |
declined from 153,829 in 1927 to 133,-|
414 in 1928, but the average time work- |
from 203 days to 218 days. |
The year 1928 was one of lessened |
activities in the bituminous coal indus- |
try and Pennsylvania operators shared
the general country-wide conditions.
The average price f. 0. b. mines in
1928 was $1.90 per ton, or 25 cents less|
than 1927, |
GAME COMMISSION TELLS
ABOUT SEASON DATING
Sportsmen are divided in sentiment
as to the action of the state game com- |
mission in establishing a closed season
on ruffed grouse this year. Hngarian
partridges, being planted plentifully
this spring and summer, also will be|
protected during the hunting season, |
while buck deer and not does will be|
shot during the regular period. Local- |
ly it is declared the ruffed grouse are|
plentiful and that the breeding seca-|
son has been a good one.
But the item of greatest interest
from all viewpoints, is that a full six|
days’ hunting each week of the open]
seasons will be allowed. Last year’s ex- |
periment of three days a week hunting
developed the biggest grouch in years.
The farmer complained ,and the city
man also—hunting being confined to
the last three days of the week. For|
the mill man, this almost precluded
hunting; the business man could not!
get away from his store or office as a|
| rule, while the farmer declared he had
to hunt when weather permitted him
to do so. |
The state game commission has just
promulgated its rules for the next sea-
son’s dates, bag limits and other con-|
ditions being established as follows: |
Deer, two or more points to their |
antlers, December 1 to 15; elk, four or|
more points to antlers, same as deer; |
bear, one year old or older, November
1 to December 15. Bag limits as in oth- |
er years. |
Blackbirds, August 1 to November |
30; wild turkeys, ring neck pheasants,
November 1 to 15th; bob white quail,
gray, black and fox squirrels and cot-
ton tail rabbits and hares, November
1 to 30. |

dible assured the clergy that his fu-|vember 1 to January 15, the number | ang will be held at Immergrun grove,

Mrs. Mary McKenzie, aged 72, a na- |
tive of Scotland, died at one o'clock on |
Saturday afternoon at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Clifford Eves in Bar-|
