Old Established Trade.

Old fashioned merchants some
times argue that all the inhab-
itants of a town know where
their store is, and if they want
anything they will come around
and get it. That is an argument
that would bankrupt a factory
in a year, but let that pass.
AS a matter of fact in any COM
munity population is changing
so rapidly nowadays that only a
small portion of the people are
old timers who have fixed habits
f trading at certain stores.
Young people are constantly
coming of age, who are not the
least disposed to trade at a store
because their fathers did. They
like e merchants that show a
spirit of enthusiasm and goahead.
The fact that a man had been in
business a long time would not
help him q bit in their eyes.
If people would look over the
voting lists of this town and the
surrounding country and compare
it with the list Of a few years
ago, they would be surprised to
see how many changes there
have been. A great many peo-
pie have died and a great many
Others have removed. In their
places have come new faces who
are strangers to those who are
located here permanently.
These PEI lie are not in the
least moved I, trade at a place
by the fact that i has been here
long time. They 70 simply on
whether it seems as if it were
enterprising and alive or not. A
new store that has been here a
few months stands just as good
a chance to get trade as the old
settler. So the argument of old
location and old established busi-
ness grows weaker every year.
Even the old residents can't be
held in line to trade at the same
place year after year. They feel
the high cost of living keenly as
any one and where a merchant
shows little life and disposition
to solicit trade by newspaper ad-
vertising, he gets the business.

Earnings at State College

State College, Pa, May 90
More than 450 students at the
Pennsylvania State College have
earned $4500 to help pay for
their education during the pres
ent college year, according to
the annual report of John M.
Horner, acting secretary of the
student employment bureau.
This is a slight increase over the
earnings of the student workers
of last year.
1t is estimated that double this
amount will be received by the
students for their work during
the coming summer. Hundreds
of them have already left college
to go onto farms and into the
arm and navy. About 500 stu
dents are accepting jobs in with
industrial plants, munition facto-
ries and steel mills. where wages
are high. One third of tn e
students are earning their own
way through college.

To Avoid Bean Bugs.

AL. who have tried to grow
soup beans south of the central
part of Pennsylvania have been
troubled with the little bug that
hollows the bean. To avoid the
bug, plant as late as possible
just so the beans ripen before
frost. AS corn planted June
first is seldom troubled by the
cutworm because the time for
damage is past by time corn is
up, just so with beans-the time
that the moth lays eggs is past
by the time the beans reach the
stage at which the eggs are usu-
ally deposited. Too many beans
cannot and will not be planted
this season, and as has been told
frequently in this paper, grow
ers need have no fear of low
prices because every thing you
can grow will sell at high prices.

Automobile Accidents

ing in an automobile three per-

square. John Carmack fell on
his head and received a concus-
sion of the brain.
Sunday evening while on their
way from Chambersburg to Mer-

automobile were thrown out as a
result of tire coming off. The
occupants were all young men.

ford from the north and, at the
same time. a party of four men
from SaXton were approaching
the same intersection from the
east. The Hollidaysburg driver
was approaching cautiously,
while the Saxton party rushed
ahead unmindful of the warning
given by Officer Silver. The
result was. that the SaXton party
hit the Ho!lidaysburg car "amid.
ships" Both cars were now
ripe for a hospital. The drivers
of both cars were arrested and
taken before the Burgess, who
separated the S Xton party from
a tenspot, and the Hollidaysburg
man from a FLYER. The charge
against the Saxton driver was
that he was exceeding the speed
limit and that he refused to obey
the signal of the officer. The
HoIlidaysburg man was driving
with caution, but was on the
wrong side Of the street and
forgot to sound his horn.
