"As far as Ireland is concerned." he continued, "we know that an earnest desire for peace and harmony prompted his actions and his personal influence was exercised to secure accomodation in the ditficult years through which we have passed." All Irish newspapers commented editorially that the monarch was a great king and wise ruler. King George's place in Irish hearts was established in 1921, when he initiated the negotiations which brought a truce in civil war and led to the treaty of 1922. I D-A-N-C-E Thursday eve.

21-An outline of the civilization of man and various stages in the development of his environment, body and knowledge was give by Dr. Harry S. Fish at a supper meeting of the J.F.F. club at the First Presbyterian church social hall Monday evening. The speaker said that the tions of the appendix, tonsil and gall bladder have or are pearing and then said, "I don't know what the life of a surgeon will be 5,000 years from now with the gall bladder, appendix and tonsils gone." Discussing glaciers which scientists say once covered this section, Dr.

Fish said that Spanish Hilling was formed by a mass of ice 200 feet high. The "kettle holes" on West Lockhart street in Sayre, the Sayre athletic field and Packer pond are "kettle holes" formed by the glaciers. At one time all flowed north and the St. Lawrence river emptied into the Mississippi but the glaciers formed dams which resulted in the Finger Lakes of New York State. Following the glacier period only two living things were left in America, the Sequoia trees of California and a man like the Neanderthal man who lived many generations and contributed to the civ.

ilization of man the discovery of fire. Later there was the CroMagnon man who learned to count to 10. Real civilization, Dr. Fish asserted, arrived with the advent of Christ. Mohammed, born after Christ was the first home town booster.

He appointed himself priest and prophet of his home town god Allah and made people from all over the world want to come and see the black stone some time before they died. The stone is believed to be the same on which Abraham was going to sacrifice his son Isaac. Two great progresses in civilization were described as the discovery of seed and Gutenberg's invention of the printing press with movable type. Building of the giant telescope with the 200-inch mirror cast several months ago at Corning will add to man's knowledge, he said. The 1935 discovery of a brilliant star which exploded adds proof to the contention that the Wise Men saw a special star at the time of Christ's birth, the speaker said.

M. Reynolds, Druggist, -ADV. Bear, Two Cubs Found in County Game Protector Baker Finds Plenty of Game; 'Possum Increasing Rapidly; Deer Do Little Damage, Blanchard Says WAVERLY, Jan. 21-Tioga county has an abundance of wild game ranging in size from squirrels to bear and deer, according to Delos Baker of Owego, state game protector for Tioga county. Bear are the latest of game to be found in the county, Mr.

Baker told the Evening Times today. A brown bear and two, cubs have been located on the Foster Wood farm on the Briggs Hollow road about a mile from the village of Nichols, Mr. Baker Friday went to the place the animals were reported and found their tracks throughout the woods in the vicinity and expessed the belief they are stayin a cave. They probably migrated from across the nearby Pennsylvania state line, he said. Opossum is another variety of animal which recently has invaded the county.

Their numbers have been increasing since they were first seen about a year ago until "the woods are full of them," the game protector said. Several residents of the county have captured them alive and between 40 and 50 are reported to have been caught in traps. At least two have been captured in Waverly. Rabbits Plentiful The gray squirrel migration of last fall which crossed the south east corner of the county apparently made little difference on the number of squirrels, Mr. Baker said.

Rabbits, however, are ful but in the neighboring county of Tompkins where the use of ferrets is permitted, there are practically none. Sportsmen from Tompkins county have told the Tioga county protector that the use CONTROL OF UTILITY OFFERED TO VILLAGE OWEGO, Jan. 21-Controlling interest of 573 shares of stock or 55 per cent of the total Owego Water Works stock was offered to the village board at a meeting last night by six local citizens who have been purchasing the stock for several months in preparation to offering it to the village.

Waterman of the Endicott State Police substation told the Evening Times today. This includes all forms of slot or marble games which pay off in money, and punch boards, Trooper Waterman said. Sergeant Joseph A. Murphy and Trooper Waterman started a drive on gambling in Tioga county Saturday and in two raids made two arrests and seized two marble machines of the pay-off type. Each machine was so adjusted that if a marble is dropped into a certain hole it paid off in nickels.

Asked about working in the lage of Waverly Trooper Water. man replied that "Sergeant says if they don't get rid of them up there we are going to." In Owego, he said, there were many forms of gambling devices before two arrests were made Saturday night but not a one can be found today as the arrests prompted operators to retire the devices from service. Arthur Barton of Barton's Inn at Smithboro and Sam Cavataio of Devil's Elbow were the pair arrested. When Barton was arraigned before Justice of the Peace Willard J. Kishpaugh of the town of Tioga yesterday he pleaded not guilty and trial was set for Jan.

28. Cavataio is scheduled to be tried in the same court Wednesday. Both are free. At the Barton arraignment a man giving the name Robert Passmore of Waverly appeared and said he owned the two machines confiscated by the troopers. The officer said that no charges were made against Passmore and will not- be until the two other cases are cleaned up.

Trooper Waterman told The Eve- ning Times that marble machines where the only prizes are added games free and their object is amusement, only, will not be ered in the drive against gambling devices. The campaign by Sergeant Murphy and Trooper Waterman is expected to halt the use of punch boards in the village of Waverly, Several local merchants have been using punch boards on their candy and tobacco counters for months. Crediford Says P.T.A.Can Help Children Learn Supply of Books, Pictures and Pets at Home Will Instill in Youngsters a Desire to Learn, Parents Told SOUTH WAVERLY, Jan, 21-- Problems of teachers and how parents can help create in children a desire to learn were discussed by Supervising Principal Eugene E. Crediford of the Athens high school at a meeting of the P. T.

A. last night. The first problem of the teacher, Mr. Crediford said, is to know the natural learning ability of the child when he first enters school. On this knowledge is based the success of the child in learning to read.

Boy and girls have more to learn than facts from books, he asserted, adding that the biggest step. in a youth's education is a development on the part of the pupil to know. The teacher is a guide, willing to help the child in that desire. The aim of present day education is to deal with each individual child as a unit. Background and environment are important factors in education, Mr.

Crediford told the parents. By providing interesting books and pictures parents can help develop a desire to read and learn. Each child should have some kind of pet to care for. Comparisons of present and old time methods of education were made by the speaker. A literature display on "The Tale of Two.

Cities," prepared by Donald Reynolds' class was viewed by the association and Ralph Sutherland directed high school girls in singing P. T. A. songs. Leon Sinsabaugh, baritone, and Howard Lincoln, trombone player, gave solos and a' group of ninth grade girls under the direction of James Altieri gave a demonstration of table etiquette.

The following committee was appointed to arrange a play Feb. 17 and 18: James Altieri, chairman; Edwin- Sickler, Anthony Kowaleski, Ralph Sutherland, Leon Haw. thorne, Harry Weaver, Arthur Gay, Mrs. Walter Partridge, Miss Marie Barry, Mrs. Marie Druckemiller, Mrs.

nation of rabbits. Pheasant and other birds have not suffered from lack of food yet this winter as there have not been enough snow storms to cover their supplies. Deer, now getting quite plentiful in Tioga county, are not doing much damage, Mr. Baker said. Although there are a lot of them few farmers have complained of crop loss.

During the past few weeks a total of 16 have been killed, 14 by automobiles, one illegally shot and another kiled by dogs which chased it until it was trapped in a creek fence near Newark Valley. Wheat Not Damaged Herds of deer have been located in the vicinities of Tioga Center, Candor, Halsey Valley, Gaskill, Corners state reforestation project and in the town of Barton. Mr. Baker said there is a large herd back of the Victor Kinney place at Barton. Commenting on reports of crops damaged by deer, A.

R. Blanchard of Owego, county Farm Bureau manager, told The Evening Times that it has not become serious enough so that farmers would consider an open season. One farmer recently reported that his crop of winter wheat is being eaten. Mr. Blanchard stated, however, that unless it was cropped too short it would not be damaged but in the spring would grow back.

He doubts if there 1s enough winter wheat on hill lands where the deer are found to provide much trouble and added that the small amount of this grain raised in Tioga county is practically all raised on valley farms where population is thick and deer are few. Some buckwheat is damaged occasionally but farmers apparently still would turn down cold, as they did about a year ago, any proposals that there be an open season.
