Centre Democrat. [volume] (Bellefonte, Pa.) 1848-1989, 1880-08-05

Remember the camp-meeting to be
held by the Centre circuit of the Evangel-
ical church, In Messrs. Aaron and Frank
Weaver's grove, near Aaronsburg. 1t
begins next Wednesday, August II, and
continues one week. Those who can do so
should attend and aid in making the occa-
sion profitable.
Snow Shoe promises to be profitable
place to invest in a hotel building. We
are informed that parties in this place have
applied for rooms at the Chinclala- a-moose
House, Snow Shoe, and been refused because
the rooms are all engaged. They have,
consequently, been compelled to go else-
where.
The tides of the sea ebb and now
But the tidal wave of business prosperity
which the grocery firm of S. A. Brew IL
Son receives is always at full flow and
never ebbs. And SO it will remain so long
as this popular grocery firm continue to do
business in their present excellent and
honorable manner.
The article entitled "On Lake Leman, +"
published on the second page OF the DEMO-
Graf, will be found exceedingly readable,
entertaining and instructive. 1t was writ
ten for the DEMOCRAT by Ovid F. John
son, Esq, of Harrisburg, whose pen has
contributed similar articles to many of the
best publications in this country.
The work of patching up" the Pres
byterian church edifce is being pushed
forward in an undaunted manner. A con-
gregation that is brave enough to enter a
building which is in imminent danger of
falling upon their heads, should be very
courageous and effective in their efforts
against the Arch Enemy.
We learn with regret that our friend,
Mr.. Joseph L. Neff, had the misfortune to
lose about three hundred cords of wood by
fire on his clearing near Mount Eagle, last
Sunday. The people of the neighborhood
turned out in force to aid in subduing the
flames, or the loss would have been much
greater.
The Centre Hall Cornet Band will
give grand festival in Winners Grove,
near that place, next Saturday. Why,
that will be delightful. Nothing could be
nicer than TO sit at rustic tables beneath
the trees, and be served with ice cream,
lemonade and cake by the young ladies,
while the cool evening wind is kissing you
on the other cheek. Everybody ought to go.
Rev. j. Green Miles, formerly pastor
of the Grace street Baptist church, Phila-
delphia, will preach in the Baptist church,
this place, next Sunday evening at u
o'clock. He is we'll known by many of
our older citizens as his youthful days
we're passed in Milesburg, this county. He
is an able and eloquent divine, and should,
as he doubtless will be greeted by Il large
audience.
Hospitality is desirable quality to
have just now, as all the world seems to be
"going visiting" Therefore, Sechler *
Cos store, in the Bush House block, is the
right kind of place. It's proprietor in
vites all to come and see him, and to stay
long enough TO get one hundred cents
worth Of groceries or meat for a dollar
The place can not be found where callers
will be treated with greater civility.
Don't put of until tomorrow what
can be done to-day" Don't even wait
until tomorrow to buy your groceries,
but go to-day to Sechler X Co. for them.
1t is the best place for all to buy, but c.
pecially for young people who are just
learning the science of housekeeping. The
members of the firm are reliable men who
keep none but the best goods and never
impose upon those who are young and in
experienced.
Rev. james p. Hughes, President of
the Temperance Union of Bellefonte, in
rendering his report on behalf of the Foun-
tain committee, before recent meeting of
that organization, did otsay that "council
will probably erect the fountain at its own
expense" as stated in the DEMOCRAT, but
said that he hopes the citizens of the town
will do so. The correction is due both TO
Rev. Hughes and the council.
So extensive have been the repairs
made upon the residence of Mr.. James
