the Best,
Last Thursday evening the committee n charge of thé winter lyceum course or Centre Hall, as well as the summer Chautauqua, signed a contract with a
epresentative of the Redpath Lyce-
um Bureau for another season of enter-
tainment, The committee was mindful f the fact that lecture courses in Cen- re Hall for the past few seasons have ot measured up to a satisfactory stand- rd. Quantity production at the ex-
pense of quality entertainment was the ase last season, The coming season
there will be one less number and their ost is considerable more than the cost f the five attractions last year. **You et what you pay for" is the statement f the bureau's agent. The course pur-
chased last week is practically the same as towns like Lewistown, Huntingdon nd others have purchased this year, The attractions are as follows

HALL, PA., THURSDAY. APRIL 9%, Express Appreciation.
The group of State College seniors who spent a day recently in Centre Hall in the interest of rural welfare, were so pleased with the cordial hospitality shown them that they desire to make the following public expression :
“It has been the desire of the fellows and girls who spent the last week-end in your town to express their apprecia- tion of the warm welcome extended to 18 by your people. It certainly was a wonderful experience for us, and we want to publicly thank every one who cooperated to make the meetings such a success, and who so royally entertained us in their homes during our short visit, “We hope that we may have the
pleasant privilege of visiting Centre Hall again some time in the near future.
“Very sincerely, “CrAarence B. Davesrort.”

1921. 989 Years Total Ages of 12 at Party. Centre Hall, among other things, is
noted for the longevity attained by its residents. The alloted three score years and ten has long ago been reached by a number of its citizens, and some there are who are in the last decade of the century,
A party was given at the home of Mr, and Mrs, D, J. Meyer, on Friday, in honor of Mrs, Mary Dinges, 92, and Mrs. Kate Conley, 81, at which a number of aged folks were present. The combined ages of the invited guests, including Mr. and Mrs. Meyer, was 989 years, or an average age of 823 years, Of the invited persons below mentioned, Mrs, Susanna Splangler alone was unable to be present, A sumptuous dinner was enjoyed by all,

Excellent High School Literary Pro- gram.
The “best ever” program was render. ed by the literary society of the Centre Hall High school, on Friday evening in Grange Arcadia, to a full house. I was the third program of the kind given during the school year just about close, and while each entertainment was highly satisfactory to the audience and highly creditable to the participants, the last was voted by many as the best, these entertainments, or rather public sessions of the literary society, the par- ticipants are from all classes of the High school. The progress made in speaking and acting by individuals as well as col- lectively is noticeable. Principal Bart- ges and his assistant, Miss Rowe, are due congratulations for their efforts in developing in the pupils under them a literary and “'stage” spirit. The writer takes oecasion to say here that while the public shows its appreciation in attend. ance, the accumulation on the plates are too dark in color to inspire.
After the opening song, owed the reading of the minutes, and then the rendering of a playlet entitled, “Strik- ing Oil." Of course, the story was a love affair, in which the pretty daughter of a wealthy couple was a figure, the farmer and bis aristocratic wile having made their mark by ‘striking oil.” Lord Duttonhead was an Eaglish *Mutt’ who aimed to capture the heiress, and William Hampton, an escaped lunatic, was a central figure, who posed as the English Lord, complicating matters very much. The heiress rejected the Lords overtures, leaving the maid of the house as the only one successful in love affairs,
The eleven characters, all girls, per. formed their parts in a most splendid manner, Those in male attire, whether representing wealth, dignity. all ‘round man, or lunatic, appeared to be quite at home and were easy in manners, The acting closed with a song entitled “Do What Your Mother Did,” which was ap- propriate although not part of the play. “Resolved that the Philippine Islands
should have their independence,” was the subject that resulted in the negative side carrying off the honors of first men-
