the Almond Room since 1927
resides at 198 East Main
Street in Campbelltown. A
native of Virginia, she has
lived in the Hershey area for
the past thirty years, "and
wouldn't want to leave." Mrs.
Garrison's -husband is' a dis-abled
veteran of World War
Two, with Army service in
the Pacific area. he also has
a sister employed at the
Chocolate Corporation, Mrs.
Alvister Schwab.

New Oro-an Installed At Lutheran Church
MRS. RAY KINCH, organist at Hershey Evangelical
Lutheran Church of the Holy' Trinity, is shown at the
keyboard of the new Austin organ which has been in-stalled
at the church. Custom-built, the organ was built
to conform with the acoustics of the church auditorium.
Its installation was completed recently. The church
chimes are connected with the new instrument.
Installation has been com-pleted
on the •new $16,000
Austin 2-manual organ at the
Evangelical Lutheran Church
of the Holy Trinity. Mrs. Ray
L. Kinch, organist and di-rectress
of the senior choir,
is shown at the console in the
accompanying photo.
The Austin organ replaced
a Reuben Midmer instrument
which had been installed in
1924 at a cost of some $4,500.
A custom built instrument,
the new Austin was designed
with a view to the acoustics
of the main portion of the
church, which contains 17
pews with a seating capacity
of 204 persons, as well as the
high ceilings.
The organ's 876 pipes are
combined into 12 ranks of 73
pipes each, along with the
regular accessories. One of
the features of the instru-ment
is its universal air
chamber, whereby all of the
pipes are fed from one main
air chest. Chimes installed
approximately ten years ago
have been retained in the
south loft of the church and
are connected with the new
organ.
Mrs. Kinch, the former
Mary Ellen Budesheim, is a
native of Seven Valleys, York
Co., and is a graduate of the
Lebanon Valley Conservatory
