Health Expert Urges Candy As Nourishin g Food for Children (By Dr. Daniel R^Hodgdon) Formerly president at Hahneman Medi-cal College and Hospital of Chicago, director Industrial Educational Bureau, president of College of Technology and director of Technology, Newark, lecturer Newark Institute of Arts and Sciences and member, of the faculty of New York Uni-versity and New Jersey Normal School. , Children have a decided craving for sweets. And especially is this craving pronounced during early childhood. Con-trary to the opinions of days past, this appetite is considered now, from a general understanding of the organic reaction of a child, to be quite natural. Candy, as it is made today under whole-some conditions, and from pure, clean materials, is considered a food. It is a valuable carbo-hydrate food in the lives of young people. Eaten in proper quanti ties, it produces energy and strength very quickly. Sugar is a form of carbo-hydrate food which is easily digested, much more easily than any of the other carbo-hy-drates. Today large quantities of milk chocolate are sold, and this, too, is a healthy and wholesome product when made from good ingredients. Since good candy digests very quickly, it is a food ready for use which can give a great deal of nourishment and energy to the body quickly. However, one does not feel satisfied for any length of time after eating a great deal of candy, because it goes quickly into the blood and is soon used up. Foods which digest slowly are better for the system, because nourish-ment is given as it is required. Candy, therefore, should be looked upon as a useful supplement to other food, and a quick energy-producer between meals, rather than as a basis for a meal in itself. An excessive eating of candy produces fer-mentation or indigestion in the stomach, causing a feeling of nausea. Food Values of Candy. That candies are high in food values is shown by the following table, taken from Hodgon's Elementary Journal of Science: Calories " per pound Sugar coated almonds 2410 Caramels. : 1451 Chocolate dipped cream caramels 2155 Chocolates, cream center.: 2092 Chocolates, nut centers .2498 Chocolate, tablets, etc .2860 Cocoanut bon bons .' . .1750 Cocoanut caramels 1675 Cream filberts 1913 French burnt peanuts 2040 Fudge 1587 Gum drops 1685 Hard boiled candies." 1587 Jelly beans 1708 Lozenges 1795 Marshmallows 1737 Stick candy 1745 The candy stores now found in many schools may be said to be assets rather than liabilities since they place within the hands of the school authorities the power to control the type of candy that children eat during the recess period. Thousands of dollars worth of candy are being sold an-nually by schools; and these institutions are selecting only the best type of pure candy. Thus children are led to spend their pennies or something that will give them energy and strength at the time when they most need those qualities—that is, at the recess period, which is far enough apart from the meal hour so as not to inter-fere with the child's appetite for food. However, I want to warn all parents that they should see that their children do not eat the cheap penny candies that are sdhie-times sold at stands and in stores. It is far cheaper eventually to pay even a little more to secure candies that are made in clean plants from good wholesome in-gredients. Vaudeville and Movies At Hershey Park This Coming Summer Melodrama was given a knockout this week when the Hershey Park manage-ment decided to present vaudeville and movies at the park theatre for the coming summer season. We thought that possibly the powers-that- be would again inflict us with stock— -but wise counsel prevailed—and the verdict was high-class vaudeville and feature films. The vaudeville will consist of three high-grade Keith acts, and a feature film-changed twice a week. We don't believe anybody will mourn the passing of stock at the park theatre. In fact, we believe the theatre patrons are thankful for its demise. If the park management will see to it that the vaudeville and films are high-class, we predict packed houses during the summer months. Hard Goal Shipments Won t Arrive Before Spring Altho the anthracite strike has been settled, relief for Hershey consumers is not expected much before April 1st, according to Ray Conrad, our efficient coal repre-sentative. Mr. Conrad believes some hard coal may be received here before that time, but with the entire country absolutely bare of an-thracite, and the inevitable delay in getting the miners in actual operation , no adequate supply is likely before April. Rev. H. W. Stough Gives Stirr ing Address Abcflit one thousand persons heard Rev. H. W. Stough , the well-known evangelist , on Monday evening in the Hershey High School auditorium. His subject was "Revolution or Revival , Which ." Rev. Stough is a forceful shaker and he does not mince his words. He stated that America is going on the rocks, physically, mentally and morally. The cigarette, causing heart disease, dope and narcotics, motion pictures, divorce, moral delinquency, fewer homes, small families or no families at all , were among the causes cited by Dr. Stough that are slowly undermining the structure of Ameri-ca, and which , if not checked , will eventual-ly lend to its destruction . The only thing that can save America , Doctor " Stough said , is a nation-wide revival , a returning to the Bible, the family altnr , and the religion of Jesus Christ. Rev. and Mrs. C. E, Thompson, who had l>cen conducting evangelistic services in the local U. B, Church , had charge of the song service. They sang several se-lections In a most pleasing manner, Mrs. Thompson, who was the accompanist on the piano and harp, is an artist par ex-cellence. The meeting was in charge of Rev. James B. MncClurc. Rev. R. II. Taylor read the Scripture and Rev. A. G. Nye offered the invocation. Johnn y Hines Here Saturda y Johnny Mines, the Ventriloquist , will ho the added attraction at the Hershey Cen-tra l Theatre on Saturday evening, Feb. 20th , i\t 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock.

Hershey Marks Fasnacht Day By Eatin g 10,000 Tuesday was Fasnacht Day which is more familiarly known as Shrove Tuesday in some communities and marks the day preceding the opening of the Lenten season. Many years ago in England natives would gather at their homes Tor a dinner of pan-cakes, after having confessed their sins to the parish priest. Later, the Germans changed the traditional custom by sub-stituting fat cakes, known as "fasnachts." The French known Shrove Tuesday as "Fat Tuesday," and usually drive a fatjjx through the streets as a part of the festival ceremony. The custom of eating "fat cakes" or "fasnachts" has been passed down to the present day and there is scarcely a home where this delicacy was missing on Tues-day. Local bakers reported 'a larger demand than ever, and it was estimated that the supply of fasnachts for Hershey amounted to about 10,000, which would allow about 3 cakes for every person in town. Great Cast in "Fighting the Flames" "Fighting the Flames," which comes to the Hershey Central Theatre on Friday and Saturday evening, February 19th and 20th, at 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock, has a very remarkable cast assembled to play the exciting fire story which form the basis of the picture. The lead is played by William Haines who will be well remembered for his success in "The Midnight Express," another action picture depicting railroad life. With Mr. Haines is Dorothy Devore, who is a great favorite with film-goers. David Torrence is the brother of Ernest Torrence of "Cov-ered Wagon" fame, but happens to be a very excellent actor in his own right. Sheldon Lewis needs no words. He is a villain and every one knows him for those parts. The rest of the cast includes Frankie Darrow, who though a little boy, plays one of the largest parts in the production. Charlie Murray takes one of his inimitable character parts. Max Davidson and William Welsh are the other two well known actors who also play in the cast. For thrills, and action in motion pictures it will be hard to beat "Fighting the Flames." It is, as its name implies, a fire picture , only instead of having the fire as the big kick in the last reel this picture has several fires. Engines dash down the street. At the last fire there is a most difficult rescue scene accomplished in which the hero has to lift the girl up to a roof when there is no other place to go. The rescue is accom-plished on a scaling ladder. Anyone who has ever tried to climb anywhere on these portable broomsticks with rungs on the sides knows what a difficult task this is. Boys of Holy Trinity To Attend Boys'Conference The boys of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church are "ALL Set to go to the Second Annual Hoys' Conference to l>e held on Saturday afternoon and evening in Em-manual Lutheran Church , Lancaster.

Y.W.CAto Organize Basket-ball Teams The valentine party held at the Y. W. C. A. on Monday evening was a pronounced success. A goodly number were present and the evening was filled with enthusiasm and pep, from start to finish. Even though some of those present learned that they were to be "Old Maids" it did not interfere with the spirit as others heard they were to receive proposals of marriage within the week and still others that great wealth was to be theirs either through marriage or some other way. The members of the Board, who acted as hostesses were; Mrs. Bert Black, Mrs. W. C. Hackman, Mrs. Paul M. Kinports, Mrs. R. V. Owen, Jr., Mrs. Robert Sattazahn and Miss Naomi Woomer. Before the singing of "Taps" Miss Gurney announced that the lights in the recreation hall are to be adjusted into ceiling lights which will make it possible for the girls to play basketball games. She will be glad to organize teams among the girls who work during the day, if there is a group of ten or fifteen who would like to play the game. All that is necessary is to let her know you want to play and she will do the rest. The next party scheduled is the one for all the rest of the departments in the factory and will be held on Tuesday night, March 16. So save that date, girls! Boy Scouts of Troop No. 2 Give Demonstration The 16th anniversary of the Boy Scout organization was celebrated and the troop charter presented on Monday evening by the Scouts of Troop Ner; 2 in the basement room of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church. The Scouts took this opportunity to dem-onstrate some of the things they had learned in the scouting program before a large group of assembled guests. The meeting opened with the regular order of Scout business after which the program of the evening was rendered by the Scouts. Drills, setting up exercises and the renew-ing of the Scout oath started the program.

The Gilded Butterfl y; Depicts Society Life "The Gilded Butterfly, " the Fox Films production coming to the Hershey Central Theatre on Tuesday evening, February 23d, at 7.30 o'clock , is a fascinating story of the inside of society, featuring Alma Rubens and Bert Lytell in the two prin-cipal roles. Alma is the lovely society butterfly, who almost singes her wings. She is typical of many of the daughters of today, raised, in surroundings far beyond their parent 's means, to expect the best things of life , unable to face reverses and disillusionment in a cool-headed manner. Bert is a young American officer anxious for a berth in the diplomatic service. I Ie is a clean-cut and Idealistic and different from any other man Alma has ever met. She falls in love with him and this love changes her whole attitude towards life. Huntly Gordon is cast as the thoroughly likable heavy, who bucks Alma after her father 's death , in order that she may be in Ills debt. However, when the show-down comes, he finds himself genuinely In love with the girl and acts accordingly. Others in the cast are Frank Kccnnn who plays the part of the father, a social parasite, who has raised his daughter ac-cording to his own Ideas of lite. Vera I-ewls is the wealthy nunt and Arthur Hoyt her hen-pecked little huslMind. Herbert Rnwllnson Is the fortunate hunt-ing fiance , who deserts Alma when he finds she Is not nn heiress. Cnrolynne Snowden is Pansy, the faithful colored maid. INCOME TAX COLLECTOR COMING Deputy Collector, Clias. H. Parmer, will sit nt the following places to assist tax-payers in filing 1925 Income Tax returns; Hummelstown , March 6th and 6th. Henhe y, March 6th, 0th and 10th. We Still Believe It. They tell us that George Washington Was something of a sport. He brewed beer by the barrel And drank it by the quart. He danced the light cottillion 'mid The gayest of the gay. He gambled with the gamest,— Or so the records say. He used more profane adjectives Than any muleteer,— These facts to us who worship His memory seem queer. We hate to think these things are true. But they are backed by fact. And so our old ideas Of George are bent and cracked. One thing we still will swallow whole As long as eye shall see; How with his little hatchet George cut the cherry tree. Hooray! says the Man with the Marble Top, the coal strike is over. If nothing happens we will be getting anthracite coal by warm weather. A lot of good that will do, says the Man with the Cedar Chest. You don't need coal in the summer time. Well, believe me, kid , says the Man with the Marble Top, it's going to do me some good. Right away, as soon as anthracite gets on the market I begin stocking up for next winter. I'm not going to be caught off first base again. This blamed coal-game is something like baseball and yet it is different , too. In baseball three strikes, and the batter is out. In the coal game, one strike and everybody is out. Says the Village Sheik, I can't under-stand why all this te-do about women usurping all mens prerogatives, if you get what I mean. For instance, lecturers are urging men to grow mustaches as a badge of their masculinity. They say with girls wearing boy bobs and knickers and four-in-hand ties what they recommend is neces-sary. But my motto is why worry. As the advertisements say, Imitation is the sin-cerest flattery. In this day and age, more and more the people are beginning to appreciate that a solemn countenance is no proof of virtue. Pride goeth before a fall. Harsh lan-guage and a sore anatomy usually follow it. Why did the only spill we have taken in sometime have to take place between the trolley waiting room and the cafe just as a crowd of people were get ting off the eight o'clock car? "Oh think I'se gwine have my daugh-ter 's name changed. I'se gwine call her Mysery,"said Rastus Jefferson. Why you all gwine call her Mysery?" inquired Rufus White (colored). Don't you neber heah de savin'. 'My-sery loves company.' Dat gal of mine done got so she has company every night. So I'se gwine call her Mysery." Mother Goose Reiung There was a man in our town , And he was wond'rous wise; To make believe that he was blind , He bandaged up his eyes. He parked himself on Main Street, And sang a dolefu l song, To work upon the feelings of The folks tha t passed along. He mumbled o'er the old songs, And played an old guitar , And with the nickels that lie reaped He bought oil stock at par. When oil was struck he pot rich , 1 le ditched the old guitar , I Ie took some of the pile he'd made And bought a foreign car. And when he saw his eyes were out , He Jumped with might and main , Ho jumped into Ills limousine And scratched them in again. Creditors do not do much worrying about the man who worries over his debts. They spend their time doing this worry-ing for the fellow who refuses to let his financial situation upset his stomach. Many n seventy horscixiwer car Is operated by a half horsepower brain. Says the Girl in Blue, we of the younger generation do not have much time for flie old fossils and fosslllettes who, having sown their own wild oats, feel It their solemn duty to make laws which will govern the conduct of the younger genera-tion .

A modern Sir Walter Raleigh was ob-served in Skunks Corners the other day.

Hershey High Students Hold Banquet On Thursday evening of last week students of the Hershey High School from the Junior and Senior classes added a new event to their regular annual social activi-ties. The occasion was a joint banquet of the two classes at "Chef's Place" of Ann-ville. Needless to say, everyone in at-tendance was in high spirits—ready for a good time. To insure against a lull in the merriment, Myrle Smith and HisOrchestra were engaged for the affair to enliven the festivities, and their harmonious notes were so fascinating that even the elders in attendance could not control their feet while the dancing was on. The congenial "chef" who is known personally by many local people and students, exceeded his usual courteous manner to please as a host. He furnished and prepared a menu that would be diffi-cult to duplicate anywhere, and the rapid disappearance of the food attested to its fine quality. Only one thing marred the perfect en-joyment of the evening and that was due to the absence of Marlyn Herbst. class presi-dent and Beulah Shaffner, vice-president , both of whom were prevented from being present on account of illness. The higher spots of the evening were touched when John E. Gilman, Jr., the toastmaster, called on various members of the classes and faculty to respond to toasts. The event receiving the most popular applause was the singing of "Sweet Adeline" by Professor Angel w. Mathew-son and Mr. George L. Palmgren. A delightful evening was brought to a close by dancing, singing school songs and raising class yells. Those present included : Viola Edris, Esther Magrini , Dorothy Hostetter , Marion Sanders, Ethel Grubb, Roy Dun-dore, James liobbs, Parke Spancake, Samuel Curry, Dorothy Hyiand , Mary Bose, Josephine Mentzer, Elsie Brchm , Ernestine Allison, Harry Fasnacht , Carl Snavely, Harry Howard, Parke Yingst , Millard Garver , Landis Curry.

Full Text | Health Expert Urges Candy As Nourishin g Food for Children (By Dr. Daniel R^Hodgdon) Formerly president at Hahneman Medi-cal College and Hospital of Chicago, director Industrial Educational Bureau, president of College of Technology and director of Technology, Newark, lecturer Newark Institute of Arts and Sciences and member, of the faculty of New York Uni-versity and New Jersey Normal School. , Children have a decided craving for sweets. And especially is this craving pronounced during early childhood. Con-trary to the opinions of days past, this appetite is considered now, from a general understanding of the organic reaction of a child, to be quite natural. Candy, as it is made today under whole-some conditions, and from pure, clean materials, is considered a food. It is a valuable carbo-hydrate food in the lives of young people. Eaten in proper quanti ties, it produces energy and strength very quickly. Sugar is a form of carbo-hydrate food which is easily digested, much more easily than any of the other carbo-hy-drates. Today large quantities of milk chocolate are sold, and this, too, is a healthy and wholesome product when made from good ingredients. Since good candy digests very quickly, it is a food ready for use which can give a great deal of nourishment and energy to the body quickly. However, one does not feel satisfied for any length of time after eating a great deal of candy, because it goes quickly into the blood and is soon used up. Foods which digest slowly are better for the system, because nourish-ment is given as it is required. Candy, therefore, should be looked upon as a useful supplement to other food, and a quick energy-producer between meals, rather than as a basis for a meal in itself. An excessive eating of candy produces fer-mentation or indigestion in the stomach, causing a feeling of nausea. Food Values of Candy. That candies are high in food values is shown by the following table, taken from Hodgon's Elementary Journal of Science: Calories " per pound Sugar coated almonds 2410 Caramels. : 1451 Chocolate dipped cream caramels 2155 Chocolates, cream center.: 2092 Chocolates, nut centers .2498 Chocolate, tablets, etc .2860 Cocoanut bon bons .' . .1750 Cocoanut caramels 1675 Cream filberts 1913 French burnt peanuts 2040 Fudge 1587 Gum drops 1685 Hard boiled candies." 1587 Jelly beans 1708 Lozenges 1795 Marshmallows 1737 Stick candy 1745 The candy stores now found in many schools may be said to be assets rather than liabilities since they place within the hands of the school authorities the power to control the type of candy that children eat during the recess period. Thousands of dollars worth of candy are being sold an-nually by schools; and these institutions are selecting only the best type of pure candy. Thus children are led to spend their pennies or something that will give them energy and strength at the time when they most need those qualities—that is, at the recess period, which is far enough apart from the meal hour so as not to inter-fere with the child's appetite for food. However, I want to warn all parents that they should see that their children do not eat the cheap penny candies that are sdhie-times sold at stands and in stores. It is far cheaper eventually to pay even a little more to secure candies that are made in clean plants from good wholesome in-gredients. Vaudeville and Movies At Hershey Park This Coming Summer Melodrama was given a knockout this week when the Hershey Park manage-ment decided to present vaudeville and movies at the park theatre for the coming summer season. We thought that possibly the powers-that- be would again inflict us with stock— -but wise counsel prevailed—and the verdict was high-class vaudeville and feature films. The vaudeville will consist of three high-grade Keith acts, and a feature film-changed twice a week. We don't believe anybody will mourn the passing of stock at the park theatre. In fact, we believe the theatre patrons are thankful for its demise. If the park management will see to it that the vaudeville and films are high-class, we predict packed houses during the summer months. Hard Goal Shipments Won t Arrive Before Spring Altho the anthracite strike has been settled, relief for Hershey consumers is not expected much before April 1st, according to Ray Conrad, our efficient coal repre-sentative. Mr. Conrad believes some hard coal may be received here before that time, but with the entire country absolutely bare of an-thracite, and the inevitable delay in getting the miners in actual operation , no adequate supply is likely before April. Rev. H. W. Stough Gives Stirr ing Address Abcflit one thousand persons heard Rev. H. W. Stough , the well-known evangelist , on Monday evening in the Hershey High School auditorium. His subject was "Revolution or Revival , Which ." Rev. Stough is a forceful shaker and he does not mince his words. He stated that America is going on the rocks, physically, mentally and morally. The cigarette, causing heart disease, dope and narcotics, motion pictures, divorce, moral delinquency, fewer homes, small families or no families at all , were among the causes cited by Dr. Stough that are slowly undermining the structure of Ameri-ca, and which , if not checked , will eventual-ly lend to its destruction . The only thing that can save America , Doctor " Stough said , is a nation-wide revival , a returning to the Bible, the family altnr , and the religion of Jesus Christ. Rev. and Mrs. C. E, Thompson, who had l>cen conducting evangelistic services in the local U. B, Church , had charge of the song service. They sang several se-lections In a most pleasing manner, Mrs. Thompson, who was the accompanist on the piano and harp, is an artist par ex-cellence. The meeting was in charge of Rev. James B. MncClurc. Rev. R. II. Taylor read the Scripture and Rev. A. G. Nye offered the invocation. Johnn y Hines Here Saturda y Johnny Mines, the Ventriloquist , will ho the added attraction at the Hershey Cen-tra l Theatre on Saturday evening, Feb. 20th , i\t 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock.

Hershey Marks Fasnacht Day By Eatin g 10,000 Tuesday was Fasnacht Day which is more familiarly known as Shrove Tuesday in some communities and marks the day preceding the opening of the Lenten season. Many years ago in England natives would gather at their homes Tor a dinner of pan-cakes, after having confessed their sins to the parish priest. Later, the Germans changed the traditional custom by sub-stituting fat cakes, known as "fasnachts." The French known Shrove Tuesday as "Fat Tuesday," and usually drive a fatjjx through the streets as a part of the festival ceremony. The custom of eating "fat cakes" or "fasnachts" has been passed down to the present day and there is scarcely a home where this delicacy was missing on Tues-day. Local bakers reported 'a larger demand than ever, and it was estimated that the supply of fasnachts for Hershey amounted to about 10,000, which would allow about 3 cakes for every person in town. Great Cast in "Fighting the Flames" "Fighting the Flames," which comes to the Hershey Central Theatre on Friday and Saturday evening, February 19th and 20th, at 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock, has a very remarkable cast assembled to play the exciting fire story which form the basis of the picture. The lead is played by William Haines who will be well remembered for his success in "The Midnight Express," another action picture depicting railroad life. With Mr. Haines is Dorothy Devore, who is a great favorite with film-goers. David Torrence is the brother of Ernest Torrence of "Cov-ered Wagon" fame, but happens to be a very excellent actor in his own right. Sheldon Lewis needs no words. He is a villain and every one knows him for those parts. The rest of the cast includes Frankie Darrow, who though a little boy, plays one of the largest parts in the production. Charlie Murray takes one of his inimitable character parts. Max Davidson and William Welsh are the other two well known actors who also play in the cast. For thrills, and action in motion pictures it will be hard to beat "Fighting the Flames." It is, as its name implies, a fire picture , only instead of having the fire as the big kick in the last reel this picture has several fires. Engines dash down the street. At the last fire there is a most difficult rescue scene accomplished in which the hero has to lift the girl up to a roof when there is no other place to go. The rescue is accom-plished on a scaling ladder. Anyone who has ever tried to climb anywhere on these portable broomsticks with rungs on the sides knows what a difficult task this is. Boys of Holy Trinity To Attend Boys'Conference The boys of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church are "ALL Set to go to the Second Annual Hoys' Conference to l>e held on Saturday afternoon and evening in Em-manual Lutheran Church , Lancaster.

Y.W.CAto Organize Basket-ball Teams The valentine party held at the Y. W. C. A. on Monday evening was a pronounced success. A goodly number were present and the evening was filled with enthusiasm and pep, from start to finish. Even though some of those present learned that they were to be "Old Maids" it did not interfere with the spirit as others heard they were to receive proposals of marriage within the week and still others that great wealth was to be theirs either through marriage or some other way. The members of the Board, who acted as hostesses were; Mrs. Bert Black, Mrs. W. C. Hackman, Mrs. Paul M. Kinports, Mrs. R. V. Owen, Jr., Mrs. Robert Sattazahn and Miss Naomi Woomer. Before the singing of "Taps" Miss Gurney announced that the lights in the recreation hall are to be adjusted into ceiling lights which will make it possible for the girls to play basketball games. She will be glad to organize teams among the girls who work during the day, if there is a group of ten or fifteen who would like to play the game. All that is necessary is to let her know you want to play and she will do the rest. The next party scheduled is the one for all the rest of the departments in the factory and will be held on Tuesday night, March 16. So save that date, girls! Boy Scouts of Troop No. 2 Give Demonstration The 16th anniversary of the Boy Scout organization was celebrated and the troop charter presented on Monday evening by the Scouts of Troop Ner; 2 in the basement room of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church. The Scouts took this opportunity to dem-onstrate some of the things they had learned in the scouting program before a large group of assembled guests. The meeting opened with the regular order of Scout business after which the program of the evening was rendered by the Scouts. Drills, setting up exercises and the renew-ing of the Scout oath started the program.

The Gilded Butterfl y; Depicts Society Life "The Gilded Butterfly, " the Fox Films production coming to the Hershey Central Theatre on Tuesday evening, February 23d, at 7.30 o'clock , is a fascinating story of the inside of society, featuring Alma Rubens and Bert Lytell in the two prin-cipal roles. Alma is the lovely society butterfly, who almost singes her wings. She is typical of many of the daughters of today, raised, in surroundings far beyond their parent 's means, to expect the best things of life , unable to face reverses and disillusionment in a cool-headed manner. Bert is a young American officer anxious for a berth in the diplomatic service. I Ie is a clean-cut and Idealistic and different from any other man Alma has ever met. She falls in love with him and this love changes her whole attitude towards life. Huntly Gordon is cast as the thoroughly likable heavy, who bucks Alma after her father 's death , in order that she may be in Ills debt. However, when the show-down comes, he finds himself genuinely In love with the girl and acts accordingly. Others in the cast are Frank Kccnnn who plays the part of the father, a social parasite, who has raised his daughter ac-cording to his own Ideas of lite. Vera I-ewls is the wealthy nunt and Arthur Hoyt her hen-pecked little huslMind. Herbert Rnwllnson Is the fortunate hunt-ing fiance , who deserts Alma when he finds she Is not nn heiress. Cnrolynne Snowden is Pansy, the faithful colored maid. INCOME TAX COLLECTOR COMING Deputy Collector, Clias. H. Parmer, will sit nt the following places to assist tax-payers in filing 1925 Income Tax returns; Hummelstown , March 6th and 6th. Henhe y, March 6th, 0th and 10th. We Still Believe It. They tell us that George Washington Was something of a sport. He brewed beer by the barrel And drank it by the quart. He danced the light cottillion 'mid The gayest of the gay. He gambled with the gamest,— Or so the records say. He used more profane adjectives Than any muleteer,— These facts to us who worship His memory seem queer. We hate to think these things are true. But they are backed by fact. And so our old ideas Of George are bent and cracked. One thing we still will swallow whole As long as eye shall see; How with his little hatchet George cut the cherry tree. Hooray! says the Man with the Marble Top, the coal strike is over. If nothing happens we will be getting anthracite coal by warm weather. A lot of good that will do, says the Man with the Cedar Chest. You don't need coal in the summer time. Well, believe me, kid , says the Man with the Marble Top, it's going to do me some good. Right away, as soon as anthracite gets on the market I begin stocking up for next winter. I'm not going to be caught off first base again. This blamed coal-game is something like baseball and yet it is different , too. In baseball three strikes, and the batter is out. In the coal game, one strike and everybody is out. Says the Village Sheik, I can't under-stand why all this te-do about women usurping all mens prerogatives, if you get what I mean. For instance, lecturers are urging men to grow mustaches as a badge of their masculinity. They say with girls wearing boy bobs and knickers and four-in-hand ties what they recommend is neces-sary. But my motto is why worry. As the advertisements say, Imitation is the sin-cerest flattery. In this day and age, more and more the people are beginning to appreciate that a solemn countenance is no proof of virtue. Pride goeth before a fall. Harsh lan-guage and a sore anatomy usually follow it. Why did the only spill we have taken in sometime have to take place between the trolley waiting room and the cafe just as a crowd of people were get ting off the eight o'clock car? "Oh think I'se gwine have my daugh-ter 's name changed. I'se gwine call her Mysery,"said Rastus Jefferson. Why you all gwine call her Mysery?" inquired Rufus White (colored). Don't you neber heah de savin'. 'My-sery loves company.' Dat gal of mine done got so she has company every night. So I'se gwine call her Mysery." Mother Goose Reiung There was a man in our town , And he was wond'rous wise; To make believe that he was blind , He bandaged up his eyes. He parked himself on Main Street, And sang a dolefu l song, To work upon the feelings of The folks tha t passed along. He mumbled o'er the old songs, And played an old guitar , And with the nickels that lie reaped He bought oil stock at par. When oil was struck he pot rich , 1 le ditched the old guitar , I Ie took some of the pile he'd made And bought a foreign car. And when he saw his eyes were out , He Jumped with might and main , Ho jumped into Ills limousine And scratched them in again. Creditors do not do much worrying about the man who worries over his debts. They spend their time doing this worry-ing for the fellow who refuses to let his financial situation upset his stomach. Many n seventy horscixiwer car Is operated by a half horsepower brain. Says the Girl in Blue, we of the younger generation do not have much time for flie old fossils and fosslllettes who, having sown their own wild oats, feel It their solemn duty to make laws which will govern the conduct of the younger genera-tion . We ore not . fond ol the folks that filled up their cellars with good liquor and then voted for the eighteenth amendment to save future generations from the curse of alcohol. A Modern Sir Walter. A modern Sir Walter Raleigh was ob-served in Skunks Corners the other day.

Hershey High Students Hold Banquet On Thursday evening of last week students of the Hershey High School from the Junior and Senior classes added a new event to their regular annual social activi-ties. The occasion was a joint banquet of the two classes at "Chef's Place" of Ann-ville. Needless to say, everyone in at-tendance was in high spirits—ready for a good time. To insure against a lull in the merriment, Myrle Smith and HisOrchestra were engaged for the affair to enliven the festivities, and their harmonious notes were so fascinating that even the elders in attendance could not control their feet while the dancing was on. The congenial "chef" who is known personally by many local people and students, exceeded his usual courteous manner to please as a host. He furnished and prepared a menu that would be diffi-cult to duplicate anywhere, and the rapid disappearance of the food attested to its fine quality. Only one thing marred the perfect en-joyment of the evening and that was due to the absence of Marlyn Herbst. class presi-dent and Beulah Shaffner, vice-president , both of whom were prevented from being present on account of illness. The higher spots of the evening were touched when John E. Gilman, Jr., the toastmaster, called on various members of the classes and faculty to respond to toasts. The event receiving the most popular applause was the singing of "Sweet Adeline" by Professor Angel w. Mathew-son and Mr. George L. Palmgren. A delightful evening was brought to a close by dancing, singing school songs and raising class yells. Those present included : Viola Edris, Esther Magrini , Dorothy Hostetter , Marion Sanders, Ethel Grubb, Roy Dun-dore, James liobbs, Parke Spancake, Samuel Curry, Dorothy Hyiand , Mary Bose, Josephine Mentzer, Elsie Brchm , Ernestine Allison, Harry Fasnacht , Carl Snavely, Harry Howard, Parke Yingst , Millard Garver , Landis Curry. John E. Gilman , Jack Parry, Grace Lloyd , Marlin Balsbaugh , Edwin Hershey, Winfield Zimmerman , Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Hinkel , Mr. and Mrs. J. R. MacDonald , Miss Helen Gilson , Miss Nellie Ray VanMetre, Mr. Angel W. Mathewson, Mr. George L.
