During her period of Illness kindly friends were continuously solicitous of Mrs. Metz' condition, seeking to cheer and bring about a restoration to health.

Difficulties Loom In Condemnation Of Property for Road Continued from face One At the meeting in city hall when county state and borough authorities got together in August for the purpose of clearing the way for construction of the highway, it was a-greed that every effort would be made to make reasonable restitution to owners of houses to be condemned. This policy is being earned out, it was said today, insofar as the authorities are concerned. It was but natural that difficulties should be encountred with a number of the property owners involved.

Borough officials announced today that despite the protests of the property owner at the Northwest corner of Sixth and Sunbury streets the radius of the curve at the right hand turn in the thoroughfare would be increased. The widening of the street at this point is considered necessary because of the large amount of vehicular traffic which makes the turn. As the curve now is, cars making the right turn are compelled to drive almost into the center of the street when headed toward Sunbury. The enlargement of the curve involves the removal of two large shade trees, and this Is the phase of the matter that is meeting with the objection of the owner of the corner property. Jurisdiction in the enlargement of th curve rests with the state, however, and the borough is quite powerless to decide for or against the removal of the trees, since the curve cannot be changed without their STORE CLOSED THURSDAY On Account Of Holiday also a bazaar on Maple Street, be-' tween Second and the Avenue.

George H. Reese, of Shamokin. About half the official family of the county are listed in the first erouD of snortsmen. and it would appear that a love of hunting and i fishing is a qualification for office, There are distinguished precedents for such a belief. President Hoover is a fisherman of no mean ability.

Presidents Taft and Cleveland both loved the relaxation of fishing. President Roosevelt was the outstanding big game hunter of his time. Gifford Pinchot has written a book on an expiditir.n of his trip to the 1 South Seas, much of it devoted to fishing. Governor Fisher enjoys 1 nnthine better than the relaxation he finds at the fishing club organized by Frederick A. Godcharles, president of the Northumberland County Historical Society, located on the Chesapeake Bay.

Ar.d so far as Judges are concerned, each hunting season finds Federal Judge Albert W. Johnson, of Lewisburg, at his cabin in the wilds of Union county. His distinguished predecessor, the late Hon. Charles B. Witmer, of Sunbury, found his greatest pleasure at his cottage on the fine fishing grounds near Cherry Run.

THREE WAYWARD GIRLS TAKEN IN TOW BY POLICE Continued from Page One ion regarding their plans for the balance of the morning. This dispute was at its height when Officer Kelly placed the trio under arrest. The eldest of the girls, aged.

23, tried to prevent the two younger ones from entering the automobile of an unknown man, who had offered to take the girls to Sunbury. In the ensuing argument, all three of the girls resorted to loud profanity, which so shocked the sensitive ears oi me Dor-ough patrolman that he placed the erring ones under arrest. The girls were without funds this morning with which to pay fines, and because of the extreme youth of two of them, were released with a reprimand and a warning to adhere more strictly to the path of rectitude. According to the report of the arresting the girls all possess vocabularies that would put a swashbuckling sea captain to shame.
