" 1ISH0P WILLIAM M. BELL,
of Los Angles , Gal., will
- speak in Hershey park next
I Sun d a y afternoon at 3.30
o'clock. The hour of the meeting was
changed from evening to afternoon owing
to an engagement of the Bishop at Mt.
Gretna for later in the day. This will
close the series of union church serv ices
f or thfe month of August and the rggu-lar
meetings will be resumed in the re-spective
churches.
Hon. John H. Reid, of Lebanon,
president and treasurer of the Report
Publishing Company, delivered a strong
address last Sunday evening to about
700 persons. The attendance on this
occasion was the'largest thus far. - The
Last Speaker at Union Services. John H
Reid Gives Strong Address to 700 Per
* sons. Special Music
speaker's subject was the "Alienation
of Men from the Church. " He pre-sented
his subject from the viewpoint
of a practical layman and urged upon
the churches more of the real spirit of
the Christ in order that men without
distinction as to station or possessions
might know that the church has their
interest at heart. When men are thus
made to feel that they are really loved
by the Church it does not take them
long to see the value of their relation
.to jit and they come to take an interest
in the activities of the Church and give
to its promotion as well as receive from
it the benefits it has to give. We need
men today to carry on the activities of
the Kingdom of God.
A duet was rendered most beautifully
by Miss Catherine Mumma and Miss
Ella Bitzer, the latter of Philadelphia..
It preceded the prayer. Miss Sarah
Baker, of Belle Vernon, Pa., sang
"The Ninety and Nine. '' She has a
very Clear, high soporano voice and sang
with excellent expression thus contri-buting
much to the real worship of the
service. The Glee Club of the : Young
Men's Christian Association was heard
on this occasion for the first time.
They sang two 'selections in " one of
which W. R. Wick rendered the solo
part. Their singing was much appre-ciated.
: Bishop Bell is large, not only in phy-sical
stature, but in heart, mind and
soul. As a preacher he stands in the
front rank. He has an attractive
personality which makes him _a leader
without his knowing it.
It is an unusual privilege to have
such a speaker in our community and it
is hoped that hundreds will' be at the
park theater on Sunday afternoon at
3.30 o'clock. The band will play.in the
park from 2.30 to 3.30.

A Mysterious Spectacle
woma n Created Out of Wood , Plaster, Paul
and Cloth In Ten Minutes. Hershe y
Park Heit Week.
S
' IUNDREDS of persons are con-stantly
asking the question,
, "How is it done?" "Creo"
. .—I creates, a veritable sensation
everywhere the act is shown and it can
be truthfully said that the equal of this
illusion has never been duplicated.
The making of a real woman out of a
piaster bust, some paints, a wig and a
few clothes, in the full glare of the
stage lights with the view unobstructed
at all times, seems impossible,, yet it
has been accomplished a great many
times by Herr Boehlke. Of course, there
is nothing of the supernatural about it,
but the feat is performed in such a
clever manner, that it baffles the most
scrutinizing. At the beginning of the
.act an ordinary wooden tripod, a mov-able
platform, a plaster bust and some
¦women's apparel is shown. The tripod
Js placed on the platform and the bust
on the tripod. The bust is then-painted
with some flesh colored paints, a skirt
is thrown around it, a wig placed upon
i*»t s head, and at a ' word of comman.d
from the operator a' woman steps forth
and addresses the audience. During
the process of construction the tripod
is turned around several times, which
makes the feat all the more puzzling.
R. A. Boehlke, the "man behind the
Creo" act is coming to Hershey next
week to present.this wonderful illusion;'
and an-opportunity will be given to try
to ' 'find out how it is done."

and then passed over him.
The young man was taken imme-diately
to the office of Dr. Fisher in
Palmyra and his injuries examined.
It was found that his head was badly
hurt and his face cut in ¦ the .fall.
Whether there were internal injuries
or not was not announced. . It was a
very unfortunate accident as the young
man was just returning from a day's
work at the factory and was so near
his home.

being unable , to control
the load. ¦ • ~ ' • _

Good Opportunit y Given This Week at the
Park Theater
H
' IROF. MAURER'S overture this
week at "the park theater is
"The Light Cavalry." Ted
_ , I Lenore, parody singing com-edian,
follows. He has a pleasing per-sonality
and presents some good songs
and sayings. His delivery is good; The
musical Forrests. are next. A banj o
duet opens their act and this is followed
by a banjo selection by Earnest Forrest.
He plays a medley of Southern airs
which greatly pleases the audience.
The men then render selections on
xylophones. Mr. E. Forrest is consid-ered
the the best xylophone player in
America and his skill is surely marvel-ous.
The act was greatly applauded.
It -scored a big hit on the Keith circuit.
The Rosalie sisters are two graceful
young:women who .sing songs and do
some very clever dancing. It is exe-cuted
with rare skill.
- Minnie St. Claire is a real country
girl. Her make up is perfect. She has
starred in many big-productions. She
is the funniest performer in vaudeville.
Her act keeps the audience laughing
from start to finish. ;
Sprague.and Dixon close the show.
They are a clever couple and handle
¦ome real cross-fire talk. Their closing
song- . is Very amusing -when -they . - sing
with almost paradoxical rapidity, yet
clearly, a. side splitting number. This
last song is well worth keeping one's
seat until the program is ended.
