Bowling Season Closes.

The Burlington County Bowling League
season was officially closed Thursday
night. although no games were played by
ANY of the teams in the circuit The fail
ure of the teams to play was due to the
fact that the championships in both sec.
lions of the league were practically de-
cided last week and Thursday nights
games could not have affected the stand
ing of any of the clubs.
A general review of the league season
shows it to have been success, both for
the players and owners of the alleys.
The Mount Holly boys carried off first
honors in the first team section and they
landed the biggest share of the prize
money, securing in all $50 in team and in
dividual prizes. Burlington gets $25 in
team and individual prizes and Riverside
gets $25 for winning first place among the
second teams.
The division of the prizes is as follows:
FIRST TEAMS.
First-Mount Holly, $25.
Second Burlington, $40.
High Single, So, Kreps, Burlington,
242; High Three, So, Kropp, Mount Holly,
1874; Team Three, S., Burlington, 1916.
SECOND TEAMS.
First-Riverside, $25.
Second-Mount Holly, $40.
High Single, So, Hand, Mount Holly,
257; High Three, S., Bentley, Burlington
sol; Team Three So, Mount Holly, 2541.
Three of the league teams have entered
the big bowling tournament at Atlantic
City. They are the Riverside and Mount
Holly first team and second team. These
teams should give Burlington county a
good representation and they have excel
lent chances of carrying off some of the
prize money.
The county teams left for the shore
yesterday,
The final games between the Mount
Holly and Riverside first teams in the Bur

first team then played three games with

The Tramp.

Many people think that the tramp is
simply man out of work, willing to
labor if he has chance, and others
again claim that he is more a victim of
circumstances than of his own pervers-
ity. Neither of these opinions cover
the case. A tramp is a man, very often
a boy, who prefers vagabondage to any
other business, and is generally salts
fled with the wisdom of choice Not
one in fifty could not find work or say
he never had fair chance in life. Al
most any day, in the summer at least
the tramp can earn his keep if he is not
too lazy and even in winter there are
jobs he could have if he cared for them.
But he hates work, and in the majority
of instances confesses that he is a
voluntary idler. r.-Bellefonte Gazette.

No Wood for Lead Pencils.

The lead pencil is one of the most
common articles in every day use, and
nearly 32O,OOO,00o pencils are manu-
factured in this country every year
To manufacture these millions of
pencils there are required 10000 tons,
or 1900, 900 cubic feet of wood, so that
each day in the year 800 tons, or 20, 600
cubic feet of wood are used for pencils.
Since practically all ofthe wood is red
cedar, and since the pencil industry is
steadily growing, the supply of red
cedar is greatly depleted; yet no sub
stitute has been found for it. Leaving
out of consideration the imported
pencils, the average educated American
over 10years of age uses six pencils of
home manufacture year. Ten years
ago he used less than five.

Work Nj keS Men.

Work makes men. Luck usually
fails. Pluck nearly always wins. To
succeed in anything one must overcome
obstacles. Force and fiber are built by
hardships. Grit is as necessary in the
in the making of man as gumption.
Hardships are not always handicaps.
Often they are helps. You will under
stand this better in twenty years.
Meanwhile permit one who has lived
that twenty years and more to advise
you in this. Hang onto your job until
you are sure of better one. Depend
able boys are in demand. And no boy
can be depended upon who does not
finish the task he sets his hand to do.
However disagreeable your work do it
thoroughly. Do it better than the
average boy will do it. In that way
you will become to be known as de
pendable boy. And mind you this:
men everywhere are looking for capa-
BILE, honest, gritty, dependable boys.
The sooner you let people know that
you are that kind of boy, the sooner
you will get better job. And don't
be in a hurry to give up the work you
already have. Be sure something bet
ter is offered. Wait awhile. Do your
work well, Promotion will come. And
do not envy the boy who has an easy
time. You would much better pity
him. He has a good time now but
some time he must "make good"
With his flabby muscles and easy hab-
its and his many wants, he stands far
poorer chance than you. Remember
above all, young fellow, you are mak-
ing a man of yourself Bellefonte

Painful Injury.

Last Thursday afternoon, Protho.
otary G. j. Goodnough, who is Supt. of
Canoe Run Coal and Coke operations,
met with a serious accident while at
tempting to remedy a defect in some
of the machinery in the elevator, stu
ated eighty feet in the air His gaunt-
let glove caught between the elevator
and frame work, severely bruising his
right arm and breaking some OF the
bones. 1t is a miracle that his arm
was not crushed and had he not the
nerve to twist his arm to fiat position
as the elevator passed it would I'M
doubtedly have been crushed. Peter
O'Malley, who was with him at the
time of the accident, hurried for assist
ance.
DIR. Smith was wired for and he
made the drive in lightning speed,
distance of five miles, in twenty min
utes. After his injuries were dressed
he was bought to his residence at this
place. We are pleased to see that he
is able to be out, although carries his
arm in sling.

'My Partner" which will be present
ed at the Opera House on Thursday
evening, April IS for the benefit of EN-
porium Base Ball Club is one of the
most interesting of American plays.
There is not a dull moment in it, and
not dull character. All theatre goers
have heard of David Belasca and the
play he presents. The author of "My
Partner'"was a better playwright than
Belasco. While Belasco depends to a
great extent on certain scenic effects to
carry his production through, Barley
Campbell, the author of my Partner''
carries his audience with him in word
picture so vivid the audience wait with
breathless interest for the next denou-
ment.

The Howard Coal-Tax Bill Passes
the House.


The Howard bill, imposing tax of
three cents ton on anthracite coal re-
ceived final passage by the House last
week. The bill met with such spirited
opposition at certain stages in the dis
cussioa that some of its most infiuen-
tial friends became alarmed, and in the
hope of saving it from defeat advised
it's return to the committee. Mr.. How
ard, however, was determined to have
the fight on the bill carried through to a
decisive finish. His vigorous champ
ionship won the day, and by the time
the final vote was taken the opposition
had become inconsiderable.
If the bill becomes law it will add
some two million dollars to the annual
revenues of the state Inasmuch as
eighty per cent. of the anthracite out
put is exported from the state, the bulk
of this added revenue will virtually be
paid by other states.
