Printers Had a Wonderful Picnic at Lindner 's Camp While Hershey was sweltering under the torrid rays of Old Sol on Saturday the printing department of the Hershey Choc-olate Co. was on a day's outing at Lind-ner's Camp, near Carlisle, enjoying the cool breezes beneath the mighty monarchs of the forest. Lindner's Camp, also known as Forest Hills, is situated three miles from Carlisle, and is the private estate of John Lindner, a retired shoe manufacturer. The estate consists of 1000 acres, and from its high elevation a parorama unfolds itself unequalled in Pennsylvania. On the estate are trees of every description and variety—from the mighty oak to the slender bay. Roses of every variety en-twine themselves on both sides of the driveway that lead up to the Lindner home, situated on the highest part of the mountainside. To the northeast of the home is an 18-hole golf course, with>a cozy and attractive club house. Nearby is a baseball diamond, with a small pavilion . From this pavilion a pathway leads to steps that descend to a promontory that juts out from the steep mountainside, and from its dizzy height, 300 feet below, is the Conodoquinet creek, which flows on its way amid picturesque surroundings that inspire one in its contemplation . Mr. Lindner met the followers of Ben Franklin, and in his most cordial manner extended the many privileges of his estate to them. The committee of arrangements con-sisted of Jos. Blough, Ed. Cassel, James Bobb, Henry Henny, Herman Lemberger, Harry Gordon and Arthur Dulac, and /these men attended to their manifold vJMflties in a most capable and efficient "^- manner. An interesting program had been ar-ranged, and the results of the contests were as follows: Balloon blowing for meiv— 1st prize, silk tie, won by John Ensminger; 2d prize, cuff buttons, John Rhine. Balloon blowing for women—1st prize, roaster, Mrs. John Ensminger; 2d prize, purse, Miss Sue McCay. Three-legged face for men—won by Floyd Vance and Albert Carper, each winning a pair of silk hose. Running race for boys—1st prize, watch chain, Donald Dusman; 2d prize, belt buckle, Elmer Rudy. Bag race for boys—1st prize, bow tie, Donald Dusman; 2d prize, tie clasp, Bobby Shay. Peanut race for girls—1st prize, com-pact, Catharine Leibfried ; 2d prize, beaded bag; Arlene Rudy. 100-yard dash for men—1st prize, silver cake tray, Sam'Dissinger ; 2d prize, purse, Earl Smith. Pie-eating contest—1st prize, electric lamp, Carl Smith; 2d prize, garters, Albert Carper. Cracker-eating contest—1st prize, cedar chest, Earl Smith; 2d prize, purse, Floyd Vance. Shoe scramble for children—1st prize, drawing book, Catharine Leibfried ; 2d prize, drawing book, John Leibfried. Donkey game for men—Levi Swalm, aluminum bucket. Donkey game for women—Mrs. Wilson Cake, silverware. Donkey game for children—Fern Cake, box of candy. Dressing contest for men—1st prize, silver salt and pepper set, Wm. Grubb; 2d prize, silk tie, Clinton Hoffer. Three-minute guessing contest—1st prize, serving tray, Wm. Grubb; 2d prizeT cake dish, Carl Smith-. After the contests a number of the kiddies, as well as some of the older folks , enjoyed themselves in the Conodoquinet A baseball game was then held between the "Wets" and the "Drys." The Wets had the better of the argument, winning by the score of 6-4. The game was called at the ending of the fourth inning by Um-pires Earl Stable and Ed. Dusman, as they were getting tired of being "the goat." Levi Swalm and Sam Dissinger were the battery for the "Wets", and they were invincible. The "Drys" would never have reached first but for the fact that the umpires had their mind on other things. The battery for the "Drys" consisted of Albert Carper and Norman Stable. Carper pitched good ball in the beginning, but after Stable had broken his watch and had received several good bumps on his chins, Carper lost his pep, as did Stable, and the "Wets" ran away with the game. Several of the outstanding features of the game was the fast base running of Harvey Leese, John Rhine and Gumey Zuver; the heavy hitting of Harry Gordon, Wilson Cake, Edgar Leibfried and Henry Henny; the fast fielding by George Schroll, Archie Gruber, Samuel Farver and Roy Lingle. The spectacular event of the game was the superb catch of a 'golf ball by Walter Leibfried, who mistook it for a Texas leaguer. The intensive one-man rooting for both sides by John Ensminger was another big feature. It was a great game of individual base-ball, for every man was for himself, in-cluding the umpires. The lineup for the Wets was as follows— Pitcher, Levi Swalm; catcher, Sam. Dis-singer; 1 base, Edgar Leibfried; 2d base, Wilson Cake; 3 base, Sam Farver ; short-stop, Harry Fasnacht; rightfield , John Rhine; centerfield, Henry Henny; leftfield , George Schroll. The lineup for the Drys was as follows— Pitcher, Albert Carper; catcher, Norman Stable; 1 base, Roy Lingle; 2d base, Floyd Vance; 3 base, Gumey Zuver; shortstop, Walter Leibfried ; rightfield , Archie Gruber; centerfield , Harry Gordon; leftfield , Har-vey Leese. Let Miss Wike Teach You How To Swim at Hershey Park Miss Eunice Wike, a graduate of Health Education Course at Temple University, Philadelphia, who has been engaged as swimming instructor for women and children at Hershey Park , has organ-ized her morning swimming classes and the members are making rapid progress. There are two classes, one for novices the ] educated, mentally or physically, until they and another for the more advanced swim-mers, who are desirious of perfecting their strokes or learn new ones, and also learn pointers on diving. The classes are held every morning, excepting Monday, and there is no in-struction charges. Individual instruction is given during the afternoons. Those desiring to receive Miss Wike's instruction may make arrangements personally, from 10 to 12 a. m., and from 1 to 6 p. m., at the Hershey swimming pool. This is an opportunity to have your child learn how to swim, and an oppor-tunity every parent should take advantage of. There are many good reasons why one should learn to swim, but not one good reason against it, says Miss Wike. Master-ing the art of swimming is mastering one of the most important means of preservation of self and of saving the life of others. Persons should not be considered properly can at least save their own life in the water. Swimming is one of the best of all forms of exercise for all functions of the body and for all ages. It has the advantage of pro-viding appreciable and exhilarating pleas-ure and joy at the time of exercising, rather than effort or labor. Because of the con-stant motion in the water, while general relaxation is enjoyed, and because of the peculiar rotary spinal motions, the body develops grace few other exercises, possibly no others provide. Of tremendous value also is the physical courage and self confidence that swimming teaches. From the time of mastery of the first stroke that sustains one atop the water one's self-reliance shoots up, mount-ing higher with the further mastery of the art of progression, of covering distance, of attaining speed in the water. As to the health value of swimming, states Miss Wike. It cannot be denied that this is very definite and considerable. Doctors and hea lth authorities are recog-nizin g more and more its all-round health value, particularly for nervous people. Neurasthenic people and those with various nervous disorders and those on the borderland of such disorders and mental diseases are greatly benefited by this sport. U. B.

HERSHEY MEN'S CLUB DEFEATS LINCLESTOWN Hershey Men's Club baseball team Journeyed to LlngleHtown on Monday evening, playing the Llnglestown team, defeating them by the score of 14-0., Pointed Toes And High Heels For Men, Says Mr. Alex. Frank Alexander I'rank , manager of the shoe dept . of the Hershey Store, states two-inch heels and pointed toes for men, with round toes and plainer effects for women are some of the new styles shown at the recent New England Shoe and I-cather Exposition and Style Show. Lizard skins will not be confined to the "lounge" type, but will lie generally worn by males, was the belief of some of the exhibitor s. The higher and narrower shoes will complement the decidedly less wide trousers which other makers think will l>e the vogue. There were diamond-studded heels on paint ed silver slippers and gorgeous after-n< H)ii high boots with little pockets to hold lierfume bottles and cigarette ra ses for milady, but in general , the experts said, women's shoes would l>e simpler and smart-er. Blacks, particularly patent leathers, are receiving considerable attention , and plain stra ps in opera pumps are ro|x>rtcd to be the favorite stylo. There has lx:en con-siderable talk among dealers of velvet fol-iate summer and earl y fall wear, this style embracing the popular short vamp and the modified toe t ypes. Indica t ions are that styles may leave the velvet and tend to gold and light-brown kids. The unusually lii gh French heel hits liecn nuxlifiud to con-form with a more comfortable offerin g.

I'd Like to Have My Picture in the Paper I'd like to have my picture in the paper And see my name in headlines half a yard; But, if I want to smile from any front page, I'll have to rob a bank and kill a guard. The papers take the good that's done fo/ granted, A noble deed is not exciting news; It's, only good at best for three or four lines If someone leaves a million for poor Jews. If someone finds a cure for bad diseases That threaten the existence of the race. The limit that the papers give the story Is at the most an inch or two of space. But if some hard egg murders a policeman And to his mountain fastnesses-retreats They run an extra for this murder story, And people rush to buy it in the streets. I'd like to have my picture in the paper And see my name in headlines half a yard, But if I want to smile from any front page I '11 have to rob a bank or kill a guard. Being we don't have money enough to buy a good gab to start a murderous career right the newspapers will have to run someone else's picture on the front page. Evolution The chap who used to keep a fast team of driving horses which he whipped to their utmost speed has given way to the auto-mobilist who drives a big car on Sunday's and holidays and travels as slowly as pqss-sible up the hills to force the flivvers behind him into low gear. Economy Old Man Statistics says if he had all the money saved in the last year by men who drive automobiles to their work with the idea of saving trolley fare he could afford a trip abroad, a yacht, a summer home, a straight-eight, good liquor, and eight ten-cent cigars a day. And buy the French government in the bargain. We misquoted the Old Man slightly. What he actually said was, if he had all the money the above economically inclined thought they saved. The Coupe Gets Our Vote Says the Village Sheik, one advantage of an aeroplane over a coupe is this: if the aeroplane engine goes dead on you while your best girl, your best friend and your-self are out joy riding, your best friend can't make love to your best girl while you are underneath the engine looking for the trouble. Rather a doubtful advantage. Not ? A Modern Columbus Christopher Columbus was no more elated at the discovery of land on that eventful voyage back in 1492 than we were the other day when we discovered that by parting our thinning locks on the side no one would guess we are getting bald. The threadbare old sayings such as, "Grass doesn't grow on a busy street" and "They don't put marble tops on cheap furniture" are scant solace to a young chap in his early twenties when the truth dawns on him that he is losing that crowning glory, the beauty of which was so mighty a factor in the winning of the partner who promised to share all his joys, sorrows, and paychecks "till death do us part." So is it any wonder that we, like Christopher Co-lumbus back in 1492, rejoice with exceed-ing joy and shake hands with our guardian angel at our good fortune. Limerick An old maiden who lives in Cleona Says, "I've dough in the bank and I own a Swell home and a car ; But, fihough swells near and far Vow they love me, I know it 's bologna." A Mystery The newspapers are loud in their praise of President Coolidge and, now that he has qualified as a fisherman by catching a three pound pike, there is scarcely space in the papers lor a full discussion of this absorbing aide of the life of the helmsman of our Ship of State. And yet— A man from this vicinity goes to Canada and catches a pike that weighs seven pounds and a half and measures thirty-three inches. Do the newspapers go into hysterics about it? They do not. They don't mention it. So it is all very deep and very muddy to us. You Are Wrong No, Kate, Sinking Springs wasn't named after an overloaded flivver. Poor References It is said that a young man once applied to I lorace Grccly for a job in his printing office. "Have you any references?" inquired Greeley. "Yes, I am acquainted with your two brothers-in-law ," the young man re-sponded. "Well ," replied Greely, "you know two mighty mean men." Fable Once u|x>n a time there was a man who could not get enough of after-dinner speaking. Get us right, kid. I Ie was an after-dinner speaker , not a listener. Dumb He's so dumb he thinks a corn shelter is more eff ective than a sharp razor aa a re-mover of corns. lie Also There is a fellow, in our opinion , who takes greater chances than the chap who tries to beat the train across He Is the fellow who stops on the crossing to look up and down the track to see If a train ap-proaches. He Sets the Styles Yes sir , father la setting the style these collegiate days. No sooner do the boys quit wearing garters as father has done lor years than they lake to wearing the galiiKes to which father has clung through thick and thin. Father Is also a lit erary man of note. What college chap is there whoso heart Is not thrilled by such a sublime piece of lit erary artistry, as Pay to the order of John Jones, .Jr., to which in signed in an illegible but dearly beloved hand , John Jones, Sr.? Many a buddin g novelist, as he glimpses a check for a thousand tarries, signs, If I could only write like that." Trouble Brewing Molllo—Oh mummy, do make Johnny stop.

Upwards of 15,000 iktboiib nro exacted to attend the picnic. Gloria Swanson in "The Untamed Lady" at Park This Week Romance, brightened with humor, spiced with thrilling action, set midst magnificent society backgrounds and rendered into a thing of film delight by a gorgeously-gowned Gloria Swanson and a surrounding cast of ample meritt—that, in brief , de-scribes "The Untamed Lady," which comes to the Hershey Park - Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 15, 16 and 17. This new vehicle presents Gloria as a lovely, alluring society heiress, with twenty million dollars, whose, only liability is an uncontrollable temper. What happens when her fiance—the fourth, by the way— decides to break her spirit, provides most of the comedy, drama and genuine heart appeal that make this photoplay as stimu-lating and refreshing an entertainment as one could possibl y wish for. Gloria never looks more beautiful nor acts with greater zest than she does in "The Untamed Lady." Lawrence Gray, as the caveman lover, plays his role with com-mendable zeal and vigor, and Joseph Smiley gives a capital performance as the easy-going Uncle George.. Frank Tuttle has staged it with an opulance in keeping with its multimillion-aire background. Scenes of the Yale- Princeton football game, of a fashionable Long Island country club, of a hunting lodge in the Catskills, of a lavishly outfitted yacht and of the interiors of a wealthy mansion give the photoplay a society authenticity. Just for good measure, there is a thrilling horseback chase as well as a raging storm at sea, durin g which Gloria is forced to shovel coal in the boiler room of the yacht. HersheyGives Hummels-town a Goose Egg Tuesday Evening Hershey took Hummelstown into camp on Tuesday evening and presented the team with a gooseegg, and while Hum-melstown was glued to the plate the Her-sheyites made merry around the bases, totaling 7 runs. Ream was on the mound for Hershey and he had the Hummelites making bad guesses at his ins and outs and his dew drops. Blackburn was touched up for nine swats, one of which included a home-run by Miller, who had on his batting togs, getting three hits and drawing a pass to first.

A year ago there were only 2133 cows and 1842 horses assessed In the county, many, apparently, having been, overlooked. Last Appeal To Provid e Vacation For New York Kiddies The Hershey committee in charge of the "friendly town" movement is making its last appeal in its effort to bring fifty child-ren from the sidewalks of New York to Hershey on July 21st. To date but ten children have been invited.. Back in New York last week the heat settled down upon the East Side settle-ment and the crying of uncomfortable little tots, the whining of the little older sisters and brothers, as they tossed in the little boxy bricked-in tenement,.one flush against another, could be heard , as usual. Some went to the roofs, others to the fire escapes. If you have never witnessed the scenes attending a hot night on the Bowery, Chinatown or in the Ghetto district, you have missed a heart-touching scene. On those nights and for many nights this summer the babiS9~w4U whine and the children will die by the hundreds from the heat. That always happens in New York. They meet it with grimness. New York humanitarians are fighting hard to save the lives of many of the youngsters from the heat. One of the most persistent life savers is the fresh air work, known as the Tribune fresh air fund , of New York. Each year it sends thous-ands of New York children to the woods of Maine, to the hills of New York State and to the beautiful countrysides of Mary-land and Pennsylvania. Last year more than 1000 children from the sidewalks of New York came to Penn-sylvania to be entertained by the good folks of the Keystone State. That we saved the lives of many youngsters who might have succumbed to the torridnesa of New York's summer is readily agreed. There is no greater happiness in the world than to have put gladness into the heart of a child ; to have been the recipient of that glow of warmth that comes from the eyes of a thankful youngster is unequalled. The chance again comes to the people of Hershey and vicinity to aid the youngsters from New York. On July 21 a large num-ber of kiddies will entrain from New York for this section of Pennsylvania. At the present moment homes for all the children have not been secured. Members of the local committee, are bending every effort to place them all. It will be rather sad to have to turn a kiddie down at the station in hot New York and send it back to the canyon-like tenements instead of bringing it to Dauphin and Lebanon county. The committee wants the kiddies of New York to get a better chance in life by coming here. They want to save them from the heat and strife of Gotham for two weeks at least. They want to show them what God has made for them in the coun-try. And those who open their doors to these kiddies will have done more to have made them better Christians, better youngsters and above all, will have found real happiness in helping the helpless. To those who will do this, kindly get in touch with Mrs. Wm. Hackman at the Hershey Inn. Her phone number is 24-Y. Registration can also be made at the Hershey Employment Bureau. Saturday, July 17th, is the last day that children may be registered. Hershey Volunteer Fire Co. To Buy Chemical Engine The Hershey Volunteer Fire Co., held its regular monthly meeting on Tuesday evening, July 6th, with the following members present: Clarence Uhrich, H. S. Boyer, James Hetrick, Irvin Uhler, John McKinne, John P. Conrad, Chas. Palmer, Ira Gibble, Herman and Paul Seavers and Jas. F. X. Murray. A fixed period of mourning (draping the Fire House in black) upon the death of a member, has been set at 15 days. The presen t fire trucks have been rein-sured for the coming year. Chief H. S. Boyer reported that the Company, was called upon to extinguish a fire at the garage of Joseph Grace, 115 Areba avenue, on Saturday, July 3rd, at 4 a. m. Besides the destruction of the garage, two automobiles, the property of Messrs. Joseph Grace and Russell Zent-meyer, were also damaged. The finance committee appointed to solicit funds toward the purchase of the new chemical are on "the job," and some very gratifying returns were made at the meeting, so when you are approached with an appeal to aid the Fire Company in their efforts to raise the necessary funds needed to purchase a chemical we can all be proud of , when it is delivered in Hershey, give what you can, be it large or small. The meeting was addressed by Messrs. Faust aind Melling Co., representing the Buffalo Fire Apparatus and Seldon Com-panies, of Buffalo, N. Y., who are bidding for the opportunity to place a Chemical in Hershey. Their remarks relative to the merits of their product, were very interest-ingly received by the members present. The- committee of five appointed at a recent meeting to draw up plans and speci-fications as to just what our Company desires in the way of a Chemical, have been invited to visit the Buffalo plant, at the expense of said Company and thoroughly investigate the material and workmanship used in the construction of their product. This trip to be made in the course of the next few weeks, should prove a "treat" for the committee, and as they will be under no obligations to purchase a truck from the Buffalo Company. It is understood the offer will be accepted. Bids will also be asked from other manu-facturers of fire apparatus and complete investigations made by the committee as to the merits of the various makes of trucks. So that when the new truck is "Housed " in Hershey, it will represent the best that money can buy, and one that will stand the test. Our present Ford Chemical will not last much longer, under heavy strains, and in the course of a few months, will require a complete over-hauling. As it will be taken in on the trade for a new truck, it is deemed inadvisiable at this time to spend the few hundred, required to put it in fair working order, and theh its efficiency under heavy duty, would be questionable, hence the need of a new Chemical in Hershey. The presence of a new Chemical in our town, will arouse the enthusiasm of the citizens, and make the work of the finance com-mittee easier, as has been the case in other localities. The Little Irish Girl" at Hershey Park Next Week "The Little Irish Girl", the Warner picture starring Dolores Costello which conies to the Hershey Park Theatre, Mon-day, Tuesday and Wednesday, July 19, 20 and 21, is a crook story, but instead of the locale of the ordinary crook-picture—the dens and back alleys of the big city—that of "The Little Irish Girl" is the country. The scenario was adapted by Darryl Francis Zanuck from "The Grifter s," |x>pular story of C. D. Lancaster. The story has a brief opening in San Francisco n a nest of pickpockets and confidence men. Certain circumstances made it ad-visable for some of them to take a vacation in the country, and , as chance throws an invita tion in their way, they leave for I upper Springs, where they assume their usual sheep's clothing. They ultimately find , however, that they are really city rubes out of their element when the coun-tr y sharpers begin to play with them. "The Little Irish Girl" is said to be packed full with uncx|)cctcd situation , a tender love story and many amusing in-cidents. Beside the delicate beauty of Dolores Costello, and I he handsome good nature of Johnny llarron , the cast contains the polished brutality of Mat hew Iletz , the bubblin g fun of Dot Farley, the comic Innu endo of Lee Moran , the sweetness and sly humor of Gertrude Claire, the quiet dignity of Joseph Dowliug, and the im-posingly pretensions air of financial pros-perity which is associated with Henry Barrows. Holy Trinit y Lutheran Church to be Enlarged At a special meeting held on Monday evening the council of the Holy Trinity Lutheran,Church approved the architect h plans for the enlarging the present church structure. The plans call for the tearing down of the present wall front lug on Cocoa avenue and tin! rebuilding of a new frontage. The en-t rance will be from Granada avenue. The plans submitted give the church a moat imposing appearance. It is planned lo push this work lo com-pletion at an early a date as possible. Dr. H. H.

Let Us Play As Well As Work The picnic held by the printing depart-ment of the Hershey Chocolate Company on Saturday was a most enjoyable affair. The wrapping room is contemplating holding then' first picnic in the near future, possibly on Saturday, July 24th. Now that the ice has been broken, the next picnic might lie one participated in by all of the departmentsof the factory. We human beings should get more happiness Hum most of us do get out of one dail y activities , our daily associations, our earnin g of a living. Wo believe that busi-ness should be the servant of man, not mast er. Life is short and should be made t o yield a maximum of satisfaction and that since we are all made of the same common clay, a wanner spirit of comrade-ship, of br otheihood , should permeate the ollice, the factory, the store and other places where we gather our dally bread. And we hope these happy get-togethers will gain greater status, and Tie such fliat all of us may look forward to their coming with satisfaction and ha ppiness.

Full Text | Printers Had a Wonderful Picnic at Lindner 's Camp While Hershey was sweltering under the torrid rays of Old Sol on Saturday the printing department of the Hershey Choc-olate Co. was on a day's outing at Lind-ner's Camp, near Carlisle, enjoying the cool breezes beneath the mighty monarchs of the forest. Lindner's Camp, also known as Forest Hills, is situated three miles from Carlisle, and is the private estate of John Lindner, a retired shoe manufacturer. The estate consists of 1000 acres, and from its high elevation a parorama unfolds itself unequalled in Pennsylvania. On the estate are trees of every description and variety—from the mighty oak to the slender bay. Roses of every variety en-twine themselves on both sides of the driveway that lead up to the Lindner home, situated on the highest part of the mountainside. To the northeast of the home is an 18-hole golf course, with>a cozy and attractive club house. Nearby is a baseball diamond, with a small pavilion . From this pavilion a pathway leads to steps that descend to a promontory that juts out from the steep mountainside, and from its dizzy height, 300 feet below, is the Conodoquinet creek, which flows on its way amid picturesque surroundings that inspire one in its contemplation . Mr. Lindner met the followers of Ben Franklin, and in his most cordial manner extended the many privileges of his estate to them. The committee of arrangements con-sisted of Jos. Blough, Ed. Cassel, James Bobb, Henry Henny, Herman Lemberger, Harry Gordon and Arthur Dulac, and /these men attended to their manifold vJMflties in a most capable and efficient "^- manner. An interesting program had been ar-ranged, and the results of the contests were as follows: Balloon blowing for meiv— 1st prize, silk tie, won by John Ensminger; 2d prize, cuff buttons, John Rhine. Balloon blowing for women—1st prize, roaster, Mrs. John Ensminger; 2d prize, purse, Miss Sue McCay. Three-legged face for men—won by Floyd Vance and Albert Carper, each winning a pair of silk hose. Running race for boys—1st prize, watch chain, Donald Dusman; 2d prize, belt buckle, Elmer Rudy. Bag race for boys—1st prize, bow tie, Donald Dusman; 2d prize, tie clasp, Bobby Shay. Peanut race for girls—1st prize, com-pact, Catharine Leibfried ; 2d prize, beaded bag; Arlene Rudy. 100-yard dash for men—1st prize, silver cake tray, Sam'Dissinger ; 2d prize, purse, Earl Smith. Pie-eating contest—1st prize, electric lamp, Carl Smith; 2d prize, garters, Albert Carper. Cracker-eating contest—1st prize, cedar chest, Earl Smith; 2d prize, purse, Floyd Vance. Shoe scramble for children—1st prize, drawing book, Catharine Leibfried ; 2d prize, drawing book, John Leibfried. Donkey game for men—Levi Swalm, aluminum bucket. Donkey game for women—Mrs. Wilson Cake, silverware. Donkey game for children—Fern Cake, box of candy. Dressing contest for men—1st prize, silver salt and pepper set, Wm. Grubb; 2d prize, silk tie, Clinton Hoffer. Three-minute guessing contest—1st prize, serving tray, Wm. Grubb; 2d prizeT cake dish, Carl Smith-. After the contests a number of the kiddies, as well as some of the older folks , enjoyed themselves in the Conodoquinet A baseball game was then held between the "Wets" and the "Drys." The Wets had the better of the argument, winning by the score of 6-4. The game was called at the ending of the fourth inning by Um-pires Earl Stable and Ed. Dusman, as they were getting tired of being "the goat." Levi Swalm and Sam Dissinger were the battery for the "Wets", and they were invincible. The "Drys" would never have reached first but for the fact that the umpires had their mind on other things. The battery for the "Drys" consisted of Albert Carper and Norman Stable. Carper pitched good ball in the beginning, but after Stable had broken his watch and had received several good bumps on his chins, Carper lost his pep, as did Stable, and the "Wets" ran away with the game. Several of the outstanding features of the game was the fast base running of Harvey Leese, John Rhine and Gumey Zuver; the heavy hitting of Harry Gordon, Wilson Cake, Edgar Leibfried and Henry Henny; the fast fielding by George Schroll, Archie Gruber, Samuel Farver and Roy Lingle. The spectacular event of the game was the superb catch of a 'golf ball by Walter Leibfried, who mistook it for a Texas leaguer. The intensive one-man rooting for both sides by John Ensminger was another big feature. It was a great game of individual base-ball, for every man was for himself, in-cluding the umpires. The lineup for the Wets was as follows— Pitcher, Levi Swalm; catcher, Sam. Dis-singer; 1 base, Edgar Leibfried; 2d base, Wilson Cake; 3 base, Sam Farver ; short-stop, Harry Fasnacht; rightfield , John Rhine; centerfield, Henry Henny; leftfield , George Schroll. The lineup for the Drys was as follows— Pitcher, Albert Carper; catcher, Norman Stable; 1 base, Roy Lingle; 2d base, Floyd Vance; 3 base, Gumey Zuver; shortstop, Walter Leibfried ; rightfield , Archie Gruber; centerfield , Harry Gordon; leftfield , Har-vey Leese. Let Miss Wike Teach You How To Swim at Hershey Park Miss Eunice Wike, a graduate of Health Education Course at Temple University, Philadelphia, who has been engaged as swimming instructor for women and children at Hershey Park , has organ-ized her morning swimming classes and the members are making rapid progress. There are two classes, one for novices the ] educated, mentally or physically, until they and another for the more advanced swim-mers, who are desirious of perfecting their strokes or learn new ones, and also learn pointers on diving. The classes are held every morning, excepting Monday, and there is no in-struction charges. Individual instruction is given during the afternoons. Those desiring to receive Miss Wike's instruction may make arrangements personally, from 10 to 12 a. m., and from 1 to 6 p. m., at the Hershey swimming pool. This is an opportunity to have your child learn how to swim, and an oppor-tunity every parent should take advantage of. There are many good reasons why one should learn to swim, but not one good reason against it, says Miss Wike. Master-ing the art of swimming is mastering one of the most important means of preservation of self and of saving the life of others. Persons should not be considered properly can at least save their own life in the water. Swimming is one of the best of all forms of exercise for all functions of the body and for all ages. It has the advantage of pro-viding appreciable and exhilarating pleas-ure and joy at the time of exercising, rather than effort or labor. Because of the con-stant motion in the water, while general relaxation is enjoyed, and because of the peculiar rotary spinal motions, the body develops grace few other exercises, possibly no others provide. Of tremendous value also is the physical courage and self confidence that swimming teaches. From the time of mastery of the first stroke that sustains one atop the water one's self-reliance shoots up, mount-ing higher with the further mastery of the art of progression, of covering distance, of attaining speed in the water. As to the health value of swimming, states Miss Wike. It cannot be denied that this is very definite and considerable. Doctors and hea lth authorities are recog-nizin g more and more its all-round health value, particularly for nervous people. Neurasthenic people and those with various nervous disorders and those on the borderland of such disorders and mental diseases are greatly benefited by this sport. U. B.

HERSHEY MEN'S CLUB DEFEATS LINCLESTOWN Hershey Men's Club baseball team Journeyed to LlngleHtown on Monday evening, playing the Llnglestown team, defeating them by the score of 14-0., Pointed Toes And High Heels For Men, Says Mr. Alex. Frank Alexander I'rank , manager of the shoe dept . of the Hershey Store, states two-inch heels and pointed toes for men, with round toes and plainer effects for women are some of the new styles shown at the recent New England Shoe and I-cather Exposition and Style Show. Lizard skins will not be confined to the "lounge" type, but will lie generally worn by males, was the belief of some of the exhibitor s. The higher and narrower shoes will complement the decidedly less wide trousers which other makers think will l>e the vogue. There were diamond-studded heels on paint ed silver slippers and gorgeous after-n< H)ii high boots with little pockets to hold lierfume bottles and cigarette ra ses for milady, but in general , the experts said, women's shoes would l>e simpler and smart-er. Blacks, particularly patent leathers, are receiving considerable attention , and plain stra ps in opera pumps are ro|x>rtcd to be the favorite stylo. There has lx:en con-siderable talk among dealers of velvet fol-iate summer and earl y fall wear, this style embracing the popular short vamp and the modified toe t ypes. Indica t ions are that styles may leave the velvet and tend to gold and light-brown kids. The unusually lii gh French heel hits liecn nuxlifiud to con-form with a more comfortable offerin g. ATLTEEANGDUIEN G CSOTNAVTEEN LTUITOHNER On Tuesday morning, Ellen Ixithiser, I-otiiw! Shay, Ruth l.il ler and Rev, Paul M. Kin ixnIs' left for Heading where they will attend the State Luther league Conven-tion as delegates from the Luther league of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church. The convention will be held in Trinit y Lutheran Church and will continue for three days. The program as arranged will include some of the leaders In the Young People's move-ment in the Luthera n Church, an well as conference periods to Ixi presided over by the various heads of the departmental work of the I-ciujuu.

I'd Like to Have My Picture in the Paper I'd like to have my picture in the paper And see my name in headlines half a yard; But, if I want to smile from any front page, I'll have to rob a bank and kill a guard. The papers take the good that's done fo/ granted, A noble deed is not exciting news; It's, only good at best for three or four lines If someone leaves a million for poor Jews. If someone finds a cure for bad diseases That threaten the existence of the race. The limit that the papers give the story Is at the most an inch or two of space. But if some hard egg murders a policeman And to his mountain fastnesses-retreats They run an extra for this murder story, And people rush to buy it in the streets. I'd like to have my picture in the paper And see my name in headlines half a yard, But if I want to smile from any front page I '11 have to rob a bank or kill a guard. Being we don't have money enough to buy a good gab to start a murderous career right the newspapers will have to run someone else's picture on the front page. Evolution The chap who used to keep a fast team of driving horses which he whipped to their utmost speed has given way to the auto-mobilist who drives a big car on Sunday's and holidays and travels as slowly as pqss-sible up the hills to force the flivvers behind him into low gear. Economy Old Man Statistics says if he had all the money saved in the last year by men who drive automobiles to their work with the idea of saving trolley fare he could afford a trip abroad, a yacht, a summer home, a straight-eight, good liquor, and eight ten-cent cigars a day. And buy the French government in the bargain. We misquoted the Old Man slightly. What he actually said was, if he had all the money the above economically inclined thought they saved. The Coupe Gets Our Vote Says the Village Sheik, one advantage of an aeroplane over a coupe is this: if the aeroplane engine goes dead on you while your best girl, your best friend and your-self are out joy riding, your best friend can't make love to your best girl while you are underneath the engine looking for the trouble. Rather a doubtful advantage. Not ? A Modern Columbus Christopher Columbus was no more elated at the discovery of land on that eventful voyage back in 1492 than we were the other day when we discovered that by parting our thinning locks on the side no one would guess we are getting bald. The threadbare old sayings such as, "Grass doesn't grow on a busy street" and "They don't put marble tops on cheap furniture" are scant solace to a young chap in his early twenties when the truth dawns on him that he is losing that crowning glory, the beauty of which was so mighty a factor in the winning of the partner who promised to share all his joys, sorrows, and paychecks "till death do us part." So is it any wonder that we, like Christopher Co-lumbus back in 1492, rejoice with exceed-ing joy and shake hands with our guardian angel at our good fortune. Limerick An old maiden who lives in Cleona Says, "I've dough in the bank and I own a Swell home and a car ; But, fihough swells near and far Vow they love me, I know it 's bologna." A Mystery The newspapers are loud in their praise of President Coolidge and, now that he has qualified as a fisherman by catching a three pound pike, there is scarcely space in the papers lor a full discussion of this absorbing aide of the life of the helmsman of our Ship of State. And yet— A man from this vicinity goes to Canada and catches a pike that weighs seven pounds and a half and measures thirty-three inches. Do the newspapers go into hysterics about it? They do not. They don't mention it. So it is all very deep and very muddy to us. You Are Wrong No, Kate, Sinking Springs wasn't named after an overloaded flivver. Poor References It is said that a young man once applied to I lorace Grccly for a job in his printing office. "Have you any references?" inquired Greeley. "Yes, I am acquainted with your two brothers-in-law ," the young man re-sponded. "Well ," replied Greely, "you know two mighty mean men." Fable Once u|x>n a time there was a man who could not get enough of after-dinner speaking. Get us right, kid. I Ie was an after-dinner speaker , not a listener. Dumb He's so dumb he thinks a corn shelter is more eff ective than a sharp razor aa a re-mover of corns. lie Also There is a fellow, in our opinion , who takes greater chances than the chap who tries to beat the train across He Is the fellow who stops on the crossing to look up and down the track to see If a train ap-proaches. He Sets the Styles Yes sir , father la setting the style these collegiate days. No sooner do the boys quit wearing garters as father has done lor years than they lake to wearing the galiiKes to which father has clung through thick and thin. Father Is also a lit erary man of note. What college chap is there whoso heart Is not thrilled by such a sublime piece of lit erary artistry, as Pay to the order of John Jones, .Jr., to which in signed in an illegible but dearly beloved hand , John Jones, Sr.? Many a buddin g novelist, as he glimpses a check for a thousand tarries, signs, If I could only write like that." Trouble Brewing Molllo—Oh mummy, do make Johnny stop. He's hlowln ' hot hreffs and the 'momctcr and makin g the room so hot we'll all be suffocated. Well Ain 't It? Mrs. Newrlch has an idea a watering place la where the cows and horses go to drink.

Upwards of 15,000 iktboiib nro exacted to attend the picnic. Gloria Swanson in "The Untamed Lady" at Park This Week Romance, brightened with humor, spiced with thrilling action, set midst magnificent society backgrounds and rendered into a thing of film delight by a gorgeously-gowned Gloria Swanson and a surrounding cast of ample meritt—that, in brief , de-scribes "The Untamed Lady," which comes to the Hershey Park - Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 15, 16 and 17. This new vehicle presents Gloria as a lovely, alluring society heiress, with twenty million dollars, whose, only liability is an uncontrollable temper. What happens when her fiance—the fourth, by the way— decides to break her spirit, provides most of the comedy, drama and genuine heart appeal that make this photoplay as stimu-lating and refreshing an entertainment as one could possibl y wish for. Gloria never looks more beautiful nor acts with greater zest than she does in "The Untamed Lady." Lawrence Gray, as the caveman lover, plays his role with com-mendable zeal and vigor, and Joseph Smiley gives a capital performance as the easy-going Uncle George.. Frank Tuttle has staged it with an opulance in keeping with its multimillion-aire background. Scenes of the Yale- Princeton football game, of a fashionable Long Island country club, of a hunting lodge in the Catskills, of a lavishly outfitted yacht and of the interiors of a wealthy mansion give the photoplay a society authenticity. Just for good measure, there is a thrilling horseback chase as well as a raging storm at sea, durin g which Gloria is forced to shovel coal in the boiler room of the yacht. HersheyGives Hummels-town a Goose Egg Tuesday Evening Hershey took Hummelstown into camp on Tuesday evening and presented the team with a gooseegg, and while Hum-melstown was glued to the plate the Her-sheyites made merry around the bases, totaling 7 runs. Ream was on the mound for Hershey and he had the Hummelites making bad guesses at his ins and outs and his dew drops. Blackburn was touched up for nine swats, one of which included a home-run by Miller, who had on his batting togs, getting three hits and drawing a pass to first.

Last Appeal To Provid e Vacation For New York Kiddies The Hershey committee in charge of the "friendly town" movement is making its last appeal in its effort to bring fifty child-ren from the sidewalks of New York to Hershey on July 21st. To date but ten children have been invited.. Back in New York last week the heat settled down upon the East Side settle-ment and the crying of uncomfortable little tots, the whining of the little older sisters and brothers, as they tossed in the little boxy bricked-in tenement,.one flush against another, could be heard , as usual. Some went to the roofs, others to the fire escapes. If you have never witnessed the scenes attending a hot night on the Bowery, Chinatown or in the Ghetto district, you have missed a heart-touching scene. On those nights and for many nights this summer the babiS9~w4U whine and the children will die by the hundreds from the heat. That always happens in New York. They meet it with grimness. New York humanitarians are fighting hard to save the lives of many of the youngsters from the heat. One of the most persistent life savers is the fresh air work, known as the Tribune fresh air fund , of New York. Each year it sends thous-ands of New York children to the woods of Maine, to the hills of New York State and to the beautiful countrysides of Mary-land and Pennsylvania. Last year more than 1000 children from the sidewalks of New York came to Penn-sylvania to be entertained by the good folks of the Keystone State. That we saved the lives of many youngsters who might have succumbed to the torridnesa of New York's summer is readily agreed. There is no greater happiness in the world than to have put gladness into the heart of a child ; to have been the recipient of that glow of warmth that comes from the eyes of a thankful youngster is unequalled. The chance again comes to the people of Hershey and vicinity to aid the youngsters from New York. On July 21 a large num-ber of kiddies will entrain from New York for this section of Pennsylvania. At the present moment homes for all the children have not been secured. Members of the local committee, are bending every effort to place them all. It will be rather sad to have to turn a kiddie down at the station in hot New York and send it back to the canyon-like tenements instead of bringing it to Dauphin and Lebanon county. The committee wants the kiddies of New York to get a better chance in life by coming here. They want to save them from the heat and strife of Gotham for two weeks at least. They want to show them what God has made for them in the coun-try. And those who open their doors to these kiddies will have done more to have made them better Christians, better youngsters and above all, will have found real happiness in helping the helpless. To those who will do this, kindly get in touch with Mrs. Wm. Hackman at the Hershey Inn. Her phone number is 24-Y. Registration can also be made at the Hershey Employment Bureau. Saturday, July 17th, is the last day that children may be registered. Hershey Volunteer Fire Co. To Buy Chemical Engine The Hershey Volunteer Fire Co., held its regular monthly meeting on Tuesday evening, July 6th, with the following members present: Clarence Uhrich, H. S. Boyer, James Hetrick, Irvin Uhler, John McKinne, John P. Conrad, Chas. Palmer, Ira Gibble, Herman and Paul Seavers and Jas. F. X. Murray. A fixed period of mourning (draping the Fire House in black) upon the death of a member, has been set at 15 days. The presen t fire trucks have been rein-sured for the coming year. Chief H. S. Boyer reported that the Company, was called upon to extinguish a fire at the garage of Joseph Grace, 115 Areba avenue, on Saturday, July 3rd, at 4 a. m. Besides the destruction of the garage, two automobiles, the property of Messrs. Joseph Grace and Russell Zent-meyer, were also damaged. The finance committee appointed to solicit funds toward the purchase of the new chemical are on "the job," and some very gratifying returns were made at the meeting, so when you are approached with an appeal to aid the Fire Company in their efforts to raise the necessary funds needed to purchase a chemical we can all be proud of , when it is delivered in Hershey, give what you can, be it large or small. The meeting was addressed by Messrs. Faust aind Melling Co., representing the Buffalo Fire Apparatus and Seldon Com-panies, of Buffalo, N. Y., who are bidding for the opportunity to place a Chemical in Hershey. Their remarks relative to the merits of their product, were very interest-ingly received by the members present. The- committee of five appointed at a recent meeting to draw up plans and speci-fications as to just what our Company desires in the way of a Chemical, have been invited to visit the Buffalo plant, at the expense of said Company and thoroughly investigate the material and workmanship used in the construction of their product. This trip to be made in the course of the next few weeks, should prove a "treat" for the committee, and as they will be under no obligations to purchase a truck from the Buffalo Company. It is understood the offer will be accepted. Bids will also be asked from other manu-facturers of fire apparatus and complete investigations made by the committee as to the merits of the various makes of trucks. So that when the new truck is "Housed " in Hershey, it will represent the best that money can buy, and one that will stand the test. Our present Ford Chemical will not last much longer, under heavy strains, and in the course of a few months, will require a complete over-hauling. As it will be taken in on the trade for a new truck, it is deemed inadvisiable at this time to spend the few hundred, required to put it in fair working order, and theh its efficiency under heavy duty, would be questionable, hence the need of a new Chemical in Hershey. The presence of a new Chemical in our town, will arouse the enthusiasm of the citizens, and make the work of the finance com-mittee easier, as has been the case in other localities. The Little Irish Girl" at Hershey Park Next Week "The Little Irish Girl", the Warner picture starring Dolores Costello which conies to the Hershey Park Theatre, Mon-day, Tuesday and Wednesday, July 19, 20 and 21, is a crook story, but instead of the locale of the ordinary crook-picture—the dens and back alleys of the big city—that of "The Little Irish Girl" is the country. The scenario was adapted by Darryl Francis Zanuck from "The Grifter s," |x>pular story of C. D. Lancaster. The story has a brief opening in San Francisco n a nest of pickpockets and confidence men. Certain circumstances made it ad-visable for some of them to take a vacation in the country, and , as chance throws an invita tion in their way, they leave for I upper Springs, where they assume their usual sheep's clothing. They ultimately find , however, that they are really city rubes out of their element when the coun-tr y sharpers begin to play with them. "The Little Irish Girl" is said to be packed full with uncx|)cctcd situation , a tender love story and many amusing in-cidents. Beside the delicate beauty of Dolores Costello, and I he handsome good nature of Johnny llarron , the cast contains the polished brutality of Mat hew Iletz , the bubblin g fun of Dot Farley, the comic Innu endo of Lee Moran , the sweetness and sly humor of Gertrude Claire, the quiet dignity of Joseph Dowliug, and the im-posingly pretensions air of financial pros-perity which is associated with Henry Barrows.

We human beings should get more happiness Hum most of us do get out of one dail y activities , our daily associations, our earnin g of a living. Wo believe that busi-ness should be the servant of man, not mast er. Life is short and should be made t o yield a maximum of satisfaction and that since we are all made of the same common clay, a wanner spirit of comrade-ship, of br otheihood , should permeate the ollice, the factory, the store and other places where we gather our dally bread. And we hope these happy get-togethers will gain greater status, and Tie such fliat all of us may look forward to their coming with satisfaction and ha ppiness.
