Father and Son
Service Last Sunday
Night, a Success
The attendance and interest at the
"Father and Son" service, last Sunday
night, in the U. B. church, was success-ful
beyond the expectations of those
having charge. Promptly at 7.30 p. m.,
105 men and boys marched into the
church auditorium, where seats had
been reserved. They were greeted and
welcomed by a congregation that filled
all the chairs. Special music was
rendered by the church choir and by the
newly organized male chorus of the
Otterbein Men's Bible Class. Rev. A.
K. Wier, the pastor, preached a special
sermon to the men. The burden of the
message was a scriptural appeal to the
fathers, whose wives and children are
Christians and members of the church,
to follow Christ and unite with some
Christian Church. "Make it the whole
family for Christ and the Church",
pleaded the speaker. Christian homes
are American's greatest assets and
needs. The committee in charge here-with
return their sincere thanks to all
whose labors and presence made this
service so successful.

Long Institute
Visitors Were Aggressive and Worthy
Opponents. But They Wilted
.Under the All Around Attack
of the^Hershey Team
Hershey High added its seven straight
victory to its list on Saturday afternoon
when Carson Long Institute eleven was
defeated on the Hershey Park field by
the score of 13-0. .
Throughout the first half , the two
teams fought with grim determination ,
gallant courage and real fury. The
defense of both teams was adamant,
complete and inpenetrable. Both lines
bent at times, and some few first downs
were scored, but it was evident that both
teams had a defense that could stop an
advance when that advance * became
dangerous. The chance of a touchdown
being hammered out by either team was
very remote.
Thirty minutes of this, and the half
was over. There came the intermission
and back came the warriors to renew
hostilities.
Carson Long could not tear through
the line for first downs so they resorted
to work forward passes, a few of which
were successful. Hershey made gains
around the ends and took the ball to the
visitors twenty-five yard line. At this
time the center for Carson Long made a
Dad pass and it was fumbled. Bonner
recovered the ball and with good inter-ference
scored a six pointer.
At the next kick off , the ball sailed
from the forty-yard line as Landis gave
it a drastic boot. The local quick-footed
boys stopped Carson Long on
their thirty-five yard line. With furious
end runs the Hershey boys landed the
ball near the goal. F. Purcell was
ordered to take the ball through center
and he did so scoring the second touch-down.
The extra point was made by S.
Curry.
The game went on during the last
quarter with man y marve lous displays
of punting from both teams. Hershey
was nearing the opponent's twenty-yard
line when the whistle sounded.
It did not matter that Hershey was
denied the services of Balsbaugh, who
overtread his ankle in the first few
minutes ' of play. They had other
ground-gaining necromancers in Curry,
Bohner, Purcell and Warner.
The line-up was as follows:

Hershey Industrial
School Band Makes

Armistice Day exercises held in the
Hershey High School auditorium on
Thursday of last week.
The band was organized about a year
ago and in that short time afford plenty
ot evidence that we have a good band ,
and the hearty applause given on Thurs-day
evening was particularly encourag-ing,
not only to Director Brandt , but to
the boys as well.
Mr. Brandt , who is in charge of the
band , has brought to his work not only
excellent technical qualifications, but
plenty of enthusiasm and an attitude
that make for team work. The boys
have responded and are working hard.
They are under no illusions as to what
remains for them to accomplish, for they
are Tiot going to be satisfied with their
present achievements, creditable though
they are.
The personnel of the band is as fol-lows:

VASSAR GIRLS RETURN TO LONG
HAIR BRAIDS
At Vassar , where young ladies know
what is what , bobbed hair belongs with
the theory that cherry stones cause

The girls are letting their hair grow.
The approved styles are psyche knots,
demure coils over the ears, behind the
ears, strands crossed at the back of the
head or braids wound , hal o-fashion ,

PUMPKIN SALE
A large number of line pumpkins for
sale. Nice variety and excellent for
pies. Apply, Joseph Stewart, 30!) Para
avenue , Hershey.
Three centuries ago a little band of
Pilgrims crossed an unknown ocean and
made their home in the shadow of grim
forests that their children might be free,
writes Doris Ritzbach, in N. C. R.
News. Down the years the story of
these brave men and women who knelt
in thankful worship beside an alien
wave has been kept alive. They had
no rich and fair cities, neither had they
silver or gold, but with grateful hearts
they thanked God, whose guidance
brought them there.
The next year want and sickness,
death and sorrow made deep ravages
on the little band, but ripening seed and
waving grain renewed their hope and
they set aside a day to praise God for
all his mercies.
And so we set aside one day at the
close of the harvest season to kneel at
the feet of our Maker in grateful thanks-giving
for all His good gifts. As we
pause for a moment to muse on the
things for which we give thanks, we
find little difference in the years, 1621—
1926.
The harvester has turned his steps
homeward. The golden pumpkins, which
nave stolen some of October's mellow
sunshine, are stored away. The red
apples carry in their hearts the roseate
glow of summer sunsets, while the
yellow corn peeping from the brown
nusks gives promise of rich rewards for
the summer's work. As early twilight
drops its purple curtain the gratelui
nomecomer sees his yellow windows
shine a warm welcome. It is autumn.
Life is like that, years of building and
growing and struggling. Sorrows and
aisappointment, loving sacrifice. Then
comes the quiet season of harvest, ol
gleaning, of reward. It is always the
reward of the harvest for which we
ofier thanks.
. "But , what is this reward?" we ask.
"The reward of work well done is more
work to do." Here is one kind of re-ward.
How thankful we must be that
we do have our work whatever it might
be; for it is our opportunity to make the
world a little better because we have
lived. We are glad that we can serve
our coun try ana our fellow-men just as
our noble Pilgrim forefathers served ,
laying so firmly the immovable and
righteous foundation of our fair republic.
Down deep in our hearts, Than ks-giving
Day is a thankfulness for what-ever
lorward step we have made in the
intervening days. In other words it is
"peace of mind." If you know what it
is to feel a satisfaction of knowing you
nave done your duty in the face ol odds
t hen you know what il is to have "peace
of mind. " If you know thai you have
ever "aimed high ," and done your
utmost in always maintaining the right
stand, then you know what il is lo have
a peacelul mind. Bui, if you have
experienced the intense prickings, sleep-less
hours of a guilty conscience, because
of some pleasant word you did not say
or some kindness you failed to do, then
you know what it is to have a troubled
mind. Our God has given us all our
marvelous opportunities to do and be
what we should and it is up to each ol
us to face each day with reverence and
love and a deep determination to com-plete
all its accompanying tasks in a
beautiful way that we may carry ever
with us God's greatest blessing, a peace-ful
mind, Then can we have the real
spirit of thanksgiving and can carry
inlo the next year a new spirit of faith
lo meet our ta sks.
Af ter all we live day by day meeting
one by one the little things and as Grant-land
Rice aptly wrote:
"For when the one Great Scorer comes,
To write against our name;
He writes not that we won or lost ,
Bui how we played the game."

Alice Terr y and Moreno
in "Mare Nostrum " on
Frida y and Saturda y
The masterful directing of Rex In-gram
, the powerful story by Blasco
ibanez, the performances of Alice Terry
and Antonio Moreno and the pictorial
and historical beauty of Europe all blend
together to make "Mare Nostrum"
(Our Sea), which will be the attraction
at the Hershey Central Theatre on
Friday evening, Nov. 19th, at 7.30
o'clock, and Saturday evening, Nov.
20th, at 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock.
Ibanez and Ingram are the author-director
combination responsible for the
fa mous production of "The Four Horse-men
of the Apocalypse" as well as "Mare
Nostrum."
Ingram has taken the strong Ibanez
drama of the sea at the time of the great
world war and transferred it onto the
film in a manner of which only he is
capable ol doing. Thejine thread of his
han dling of situations , people and the
pictorial beauty run through the entire
picture and give it the Ingram flavor
which the public has tasted of and ap-proved
many times before.
Alice. Terry and Antonio Moreno rise
to dramatic heights in "Mare Nostrum"
which they have never before reached
during their careers before the camera.
By her handling of the difficult role ol
Freya Talberg, the clever spy, Miss
Terry firmly establishes herself as one of
the leading actresses on the screen today
and one of the most versatile. The
sudden change from the queenly parts
she has enacted in previous pictures to
that of the beautiful spy is one that
reflects great credit to her ability .
Antonio Moreno has long been recog-nized
as one of the most romantic figures
of the stage or screen. At times he has
been unfortunate in the parts he has
played, but in "Mare Nostrum " has a
role which he has long awaited , and he
takes advantage of the opportunity.
As Ulysses Ferragut, the Spanish sea
captain , Moreno wi ll long be remem-bered.
Moreno is a Spaniard and
Captain Ulysses Ferragut in the screen
version of "Mare Nostrum" is as near a
living character as it is possible for him
to be.
Ingram has assembled a well-balanced
and most creditable supporting cast for
"Mare Nostrum." Hughie Mack, the
fat comedian, is excellen t in his comedy
role. The remaining members are for-eign
actors and actresses, who make their
first appearance on the American screen
in this picture.

A Private Letter
(to that distinguished botanist and
searcher after the truth—S. Mere Kase).
Dear Mr. S. Mere Kase: Yours at hand
and in reply will say
We're very sorry if our words have
caused your steps to stray
In search of vine that 's unfergrotzed
when you have it at home,
Accept our best apologies but tuck this
in your dome:
You will go down in history as one who
wandered far ,
Who followed down the Horseshoe Pike
an always shining star,
Yes, you 're of that immortal clan that
makes the world advance,
Investigating anything if you have half a
chance.
Though learning truths for mankind's
good, you serve man without
pay,
Your name will grace the histories oi
your grandchildren 's day;
The Hall oi Fame will welcome you with
'most a million votes.
Because you told the non-Dutch worla
the meaning of "tergrotz ".
Sir, most abundantly,
Your servant, Dee Jay Gee.
The Best the Bean Can Do

insulate these red hot numbers with a
li ttle limerick about one oi tne nearby
towns. However, the best have been
used before. Limericks about Union
Deposit , Sand Beach, Cleona and Deo-date
have appeared in this space. Such
names as hummelstown and Annville
are mighty hard to limerick , making a
necessary to pick on falriiyra, JNor is
that a cinch. It takes a better hm-encker
than Dee Jay dee to make any-thing
with sense out ol it. Hut as we
have said , space Must Be Filled. Belore
tne curtain rises we would hue to stale

In Spite of Hand icaps
"It may be true," thinks the Man
with the Marble Top, "that a goou
education is absolutely essential to
success, but did you ever notice how
many successlul business men spell the

Solemn thinking leads one lo believe
that men become successlul not so much
through lakmg unto themselves a great
mass of heterogeneous in Ionization as
through fixing their minds and souls on
one line ol endeavor and keeping ever-lastingly
at it. Henry Foul and hun-dreds
ol other so-called succebblul men
have attained llieir positions in spite ol
the fact that they never studied enough
history lo know that the Pilgrims who
slipped oil Plymouth rock in ItiZO got
their leel wel because guinboots were

Yields on Shenk
Farm Increased By
Potato Tests
Three Demoustrations Prove Value
of Fertilizer and Spraying.
Michigan Russets Beat
Variety.
Results of three outstanding potato
demonstrations conducted on the farm
of A. B. Shenk, Hershey, under the
direction of the Dauphin County Agri-cultural-
Extension Association were
announced recently by County Agent K.
K. Burtner.
In a potato fertilizer test it was proved
that 650 pounds of fertilizer used in the
row gave better yields than 1165 pounds
us?d in the same way. Comparisons ot
tertihzers showed that the yield ip. a row
where 650 pounds of "0-12-6" was used
was approximately the same as that of a
row where 1165 pounds of 16 peKcent.
acid phosphate was used. The average
yield of rows without fertilizer was 256.6
bushels as compared with a minimum
yield of 286.9 bushels where "0-12-6"
was employed at the ra te of 650 pounds.
Spraying produced better yields than
dusting, another demonstration showed.
Dusting resulted in 31 bushels more
potatoes per acre being produced than
where neither dusting nor spraying was
resorted to, and spraying helped to
produce 7.8 more bushels per acre.
Michigan Russets proved to be the
best variety of potatoes in a seed source
demonstration, first year seed of this
variety yielding 20.8 bushels more
potatoes on an average than Potter
County seed. An East Lansing variety
of seed yielded 96.7 bushels less than the
first-year Michigan Russets, and the
lat ter variety produced 68.4 more
bushels per acre than the Mills Banner
variety from Perry County, the test
showed.
Hershey High to Play
Elizabethtown High
Thanksgiving Day
The Hershey High football team will
play the strong Jilizabethtown Hign
team on the Hershey athletic field on
Thursday morning (Thanksgiving Day).
This game promises to eclipse ah
others in point of attendance and color,
lor followers of both schools are highly
enthusiastic about the battle. With the
teams fairly evenly matched, the tilt
promises to be as hard-fought as any
seen on the Park field this season.
Followers of both teams are predicting
a victory. There are those who believe
chat Coach Palmgren has a winning
combination, but there are just as many

Hersh ey Dept. Store
Employes Hold a
Frolicesome Frolic
Mils Alice Farrel , George Fisher,
Alfred Mellin and George Lafferty
Shine. Mrs. Katie Rothrock
and Irvin Gingrich Prizewinners
Friday evening, October, nineteen
hundred twenty-sjx A. D., will go down
in the history of the Hershey Depart-ment
Store as the date of one of the
most enjoyable frolics in which the
employes ever participated. The occa-sion
was a social gathering of all the
employes of the various Hershey Store
departments and each employe brought
a partner to help eat, drink and be
merry, for tomorrow was Saturday.
Everything conspired to make the event
a success. The efforts of Mr. Botts and
nis helpers who decorated the Old Cafe
on Chocolate avenue where the funfest
was held, the work of the entertainment
committee, Paul Zentmeyer, Kobert
Aumen and Alice Farrell, and of the
eats committee, Wm. B. Leithiser, Grace
aeavers and Alex. Franks, and the
cheffing of the chef's, Mrs. Harrison
riostetter and Mrs. Jerome Hostetter,
all these were ably supplemented by the
general spirit of mirth and good fellow-ship
which pervaded the whole evening.
The affair , which got under way at
eight o'clock last Friday in the Old Cafe
ounding was a masquerade ball, a real
one. And so cleverly concealing were
tne costumes that when the store em-ployes
lined up to compete for the two
prizes (two-and-a-half doUar gold pieces,
one for the man and one for the woman
longest masked and unrecognized), the
judges were completely flabbergasted
and at their wits end as to who was who.
Finally putting two and two together
and making twelve the judges simmered
tne crowd down to the prize winners,
ivlrs. Katie Kothrock, and Irvin Ging-rich.
Notwithstanding the fact that
Air. Gingrich was very charmingly
attired in a pink dress and accessories to
match he was given the reward of en-deavor
for the men. And as for Mrs.
Kothrock no one even suspected who
was underneath the mask until it was
nfted.
After the unmasking games and danc-ing
toiiowed, after wnicn a happy and
iiungry crowd filed into the dining room
to help themselves to the least, which
was served cateteria style. More danc-ing
and games followed. In the course
of the evening it came to light that
various employes had been keeping their
agn.ts under bushels only to let tnem
dnine for this occasion. For example,
jvliss Alice Farrell, George Fisner,
Alfred Mellin and George Larferty gave
dome very enlivening interpretations of
the Charleston.
To the peaceful passerby at about the
iiour of eieven-tmrty a very disturbing
spectacle must have presented itself , tor
ihe hall was hanging with confetti,
iiorns were blowing, voices were shout-ing,
and high mirth an'd jollity reigned
oiipreme. The members ot tne various
oimmiUees in charge were railroaded
onto the platform where lusty cheers
greeted each one. Mr. Botts expressed
Liie sentiment of all when he thanked
•jeorge Lailerty for the masterful way in
vmicn he kept order throughout the
evening and when he voiced the hope
chat another employes' frolic might be
neld in the not too-distant future.
