              Campbelltown
Dedicates Modern Fire
Fighting Apparatus
Large Parade Held ,' and the Town
Was Crowded. Prominent
Speakers at Dedication Ex-ercises.
Carnival
After twenty-five years of continued
efforts, Campbelltown has a fire com-pany
and a modern fire-fighting appara-tus.
The latter was officially dedicated
on Saturday afternoon with a parade and
public exercises which marked an epoch
in the histor y of the community.
So far as known the town never had a
fire engine but one. That was an old
fashioned hand engine which was pro-cured
in 1854 or thereabouts. Older
residents say it was defective and was
discarded in a few years, and its where-abouts
are unknown. Its only remain-ing
part is a brass half-inch nozzle or
branch-pipe, to which is still attached
about two feet of old leather hose,
riveted with copper rivets along the
seams. It was carried in the parade
Saturday afternoon by two small boys,
Howard and Norman Gingrich, sons of
Ammon Gingrich, a baker of the town,
on a small express wagon bearing the
legend—"In Memory of Campbell-town's
first pumper—185"4." Just ahead
of it , by way of easy comparison was the
handsome new triple combination Hahn
auto truck. It costs $4100. The mecha-nism
includes a modern 350 gallon auto
pump, a booster engine available at
farms where water must be pumped
from springs or cisterns, or carried in
buckets, and a chemical tank together
with hand chemical extinguishers and a
hose box.
The Parade
The parade broke all traditions of the
region for civic demonstration . Farmers
flocked into the town from all the sur-rounding
countryside, for the new
machine is to be for their protection as
well as that of the town. There were
also visitors from Harrisburg, Lebanon,
Hershey and the surrounding towns,
and the single street of the town was
lined on both sides with automobiles
and hundreds of people.
The parade was led by officers of the
fire company organized about a year
ago, in decorated automobiles. Then
came a cordon of fire police of Lebanon.
Next in line was the natty uniformed
volunteer fire department of Palmyra,
headed by the Iroquois band, of Palmy-ra.
The company's new triple combina-tion
auto truck accompanied the outfit.
The Hummelstown Fire Company
No. 1, attired in flaring red blouses, was
in line with the recently purchased auto
fire truck of latest style.
The Chemical Fire Engine and In-surance
Patrol v^ompany, of Lebanon.
This section was led by the City Sym-phony
band , of Lebanon. A large dele-gation
of firemen from Schaefferstown,
Lebanon county, followed.
A glittering display was made by the
Hershey Fire Company and the Hershey
Troop of Boy Scouts. These were fol-lowed
by the Darktown Fire Brigade,
of Annville, with fantastic apparatus
constructed -of old washboilers and cast
off materials of various kind s, and man-ned
by burntcork firemen in grotesque
attire.
Next in line followed the children of
the Campbelltown grade schools, led by
their teachers, Misses Bomberger and
Moyer. The Chestnut Hill and Gar-field
schools in adjoining townships, also
participated.
The newly organized Campbelltown
Fire Company brought up the rear with
the new auto fire apparatus led by
President M. S. Long and Paul I. Moyer
and other officers. The Citizens band ,
of Union Deposit , led the delegation. As
an escort was a division of young people
of town done u p in fantastic costumes.
Merchants of the town staged an
industrial section to the parade, and J.
G. Whitman , J. II . Miller and Sons, I.
J. Hess, Grubb and Miller , furnished
floats , as did also Lineaweaver 's radio
shop, of Palm yra.
The route of the parade led to the
school house lawn , where the dedicatory
exercises were conducted by the Rev.
Henr y I. Aulenbach , pastor of the
Campbelltown Reformed church. Other
addresses were made by Hon. Edward
E. Beidlem an , of Harrisburg, President
of the Pennsylvania State Firemen 's
Association , and Dr. John Walters ,
ma yor of Lebanon.

Thrills Combined With a
Dramatic Story
Tony, wonder horse of the Tom Mix
ranch , has had some big moments in his

he does in "Hard Boiled ," Fox Films
version of Shannon Fife's romance of the
West, which will be the attraction at
the Hershey Central Theatre on Tuesday
evening, October 5th, at 7:30 o'clock.
In this story, laid in the great open
spaces, Tony has to dash so close to a
ra pidly-moving train that the step al-most
bru shes his forefeet. At no time
does the big horse balk , however, for he
has been made to understand that Tom
is to leap to the top of the swaying train
—and t he slightest mis-step by Tony
may spell disaster.
Once on the train Tom grapples a
band of crooks and defeats them in a
terrific single-handed battle while Tony
gallops alongside, still eager to be in the
contest.

Better Than Worldly Treasure
Last Spring, when we moved, my vol-umes
of Keats and Shelley
Were packed away with the pickles, the
plums and jelly,
I kept as busy throughout the spring and
summer
As the well-known and famous one
handed drummer.
Forgetting awhile the poets that gave
me pleasure,
I sought in vain to amass me some
worldl y treasure—
.While packed away 'mid pickles and
plums and j elly,
These two waited for me, my friends,
Keats and Shell y.
But I've found my joy again, joy in more
measure
Than can be bought in the market with
worldly treasure,
Found packed away 'mid pickles and
plums and jelly,
These two, my very good friends, Keats
and Shelley.
Sto'Dtt J ay Qee
What is a New Yorker?
A newspaper columnist has been try-ing
to discover the definition of a New
Yorker. According to one Central
Park policeman who stood desperately
surveying the paper littered hills and
dales of his domain, a New Yorker is a
person who will carry a newspaper five
miles to drop it in Central Park.
Item
He bet his fortune on a horse,
He's diggin ditches now, of course.
Now That the War Is Over
Last week I let it be known I was
picking Dempsey to win, but praying for
Tunney. The outcome of the fight,
then , is a great moral victory as far as I
am concerned . My prayers have
tijumphed over my good judgment a few
hours before the Battle of the Century
(?) began an ardent Tunney advocate
was telling me what the Marine would
do to Dempsey, "That's all right," I
told him, "you'd better talk now while
you have the chance. Come around
to-morrow morning and I will talk fight
with you. " Sure enough he came
around the next morning to make sport
of my judgment. Outwardly I showed
great chagrin , but in wardly I exulted.
Had not I been praying all along for a
new champion? Certainly. That 's
really the only way, don 't you think, for
a man to keep his self respect, bet on one
and pray for the other.
The Big Boob
Whadda yah know about it? The
darned dumb bell don 't believe that
Tunney is dead. And the report came
straight from a fellow that got it over
the radio. That fellow wouldn 't believe
it if you told him an honest politician was
found.
Guarding His Good Name
I see by a popular magazine, says the
Man with the Wooden Leg, that Will
Rogers advised a well known train
robber not to dabble in politics because
he was too chicken-hearted for that
business and because he might besmirch
his good name.
Why I Didn 't Hit Him
I have had several nicknames in my
short and hectic career , but the one
I resented most was one tacked on me by
a certain smart alec, Sullivan by name,
who attended normal school for the sole
purpose of playing football. His rather
apt way of addressing me was, "Hello
there, small town politician. " He didn 't
know I am a Democrat or he would
never have accused me of bein g a poli-tician
in Pennsylvania. The only thing
that kept me from pasting that football
player was the fact that he was six foot
two and I was afraid that his skull in
falling from such a height , might be
fractured. Then too, I feared when he
fell his skull might not be fractured .

Chancellor Heber R . Harper of the

During the World War a doughboy
whose gun had become shattered by an

and started running toward the rear.
After he had gone some ten miles at a
record pace an officer commanded him
to halt.
"Here, don 't you know t h a i there 's a
big battle going on up at the front?"
said the ollicer. "What do you mean
by running away like this when you
should he up at t h e front doing your
bit?"
"Y-ycs , 1-1 know there 's a bi g battle
on up there , " stuttered the breathless
and trembling doughboy,
"Then what are you doing way back
here?" demanded the ollicer.
"I' m j ust spreading (he news, sir ,"
said the infantryman.
"Spreading tile news, " scoffed the
officer. "Well , I think you are a coward
and I' m going to have, you court mar-lialed
and shot at sunrise tomorrow ."
"By the way, " he added , "do you
know who I am?"
"N-no," said Hie doughboy, "I don 't
know who yop are , sir. "
"Well , I' m your general ," said the
ollicer.
"(h eat guns! Am I that far back?"
exclaimed the doughboy, and fainted

The Smokestack Hon. £. E. Beidleman
Tells Citizens What
They Owe Fire Co
Remarks Are Particularly Applicable
to Citizens of Hershey and En-virons.
Fire Companies Keep
Down Fire Insurance
i—
At the dedication of Campbelltown's
new fire apparatus on Saturday Hon.
Edward E. Beidleman, of Harrisburg,
who is president of the Pennsylvania
State Firemen's Association, spoke in a
most emphatic manner, telling the tax-payers
what they owe to the firemen in
the way of support. His remarks are
not only applicable to the citizens of
Campbelltown, but to the citizens of
Hershey and environs as well.
Mr. Beidleman explained that the
value of a fire company consisted not
onl y in the matter of protecting lives and
property, but was also the means of
keeping the insurance rates down to the
lowest possible minimum. He said
a fire department is the greatest in-surance
company extant. He declared
that the volunteer firemen of Pennsyl-vania
outclass the paid firemen in every
phase of their service, and serve for the
love of the work and not as a means of
obtaining a livelihood; and while thus
engaged in displaying the greatest and
most loyal spirit of co-operation to be
found in any sphere of human activity.
He stated that it was wrong for any
community to sit idly by and expect the
neighboring firemen of other communi-ties
to save their properties when con-fla
gration menaces.
Dr. John Walter, mayor of Lebanon,
in the concluding speech, stated that
while men of means belong to fire com-panies
and sometimes assist in fighting
fires , a large part of the men who do the
work at a blaze are men who have no
property themselves. He decried the
tendency to criticize volunteer firemen ,
and he lampooned severely the curb-stone
firemen
Hershey High School
Girls Organize a
"Phite Sororit y"
Several weeks ago, the girls of "27"
organized a Senior Sorority called the
"Phite ," a Greek word meaning "friend-ship."
The first meeting was held at
Winona Baker's home on Friday, Sept.
10th. Thirteen girls were present and a
good time was had by all. The girls
acknowledged that the "eats" were the
outstanding feature of the evening. The
next meeting was held at Anna Martin 's
home at Palmdale. Plans had been
made to hike to Miss Martin 's home, but
as the weather was very inclement on
Monday evening, the trip was made by
trolley. Some of the girls brought
handi-work and toiled while the rest re-lated
the town gossip.
All the girls agreed that a neat little
pin should be procured so that the
sorority days would never be forgotten.
Thirteen girls were present at this meet-in
g. Thirteen seems to be their lucky
number. »
Several real live programs and activi-ties
have been arranged for the coming
meetings, as the girls aim to make this
sororit y a success. It is their ambition
to pass this sorority on to the future
classes of Senior girls.
The next meeting of the "Phite " is to
be held at Edna Smith's home on Derry
Road . The meeting will be held the
latter par t of October, and it is planned
to hold a Hallowe'en party.
Senior Class Hike

glad to sit by the lire and eat hot dogs,
corn and marshmallows.
Down on Mr. Sander 's farm , in one of
the hu ge fields, they played games and
had lots of fun , until everyone was
sleepy and tired and ready to hike back

Big Circus Scene in
"Sally of the Sawdust "
on Saturday
Imposing Sets Also Feature New
Film. Popular Laugh-Mocker
Has Leading Male Role.
Scenes Lavishly Staged
D. W. Griffith 's latest production for
United Artists Corporation, "Sally of
the Sawdust," which features Carol
Dempster, W. C. Fields and Alfred
Lunt in the principal roles, is announced
as the feature attraction at the Hershey
Central Theatre on Saturday evening,
October 2, at 6:30 and 8:30 o'clock.
The interiors were made at the Para-mount
Long Island studio,.and included
among other imposing sets, a huge circus
and carnival scene for which one whole
stage was set aside. Exteriors were
filmed in Greenwich, Conn., and along
the Motor Parkway and other locations
in various towns and villages on Long
Island.
The charm of circus life and carnival
merriment for the background is illumi-nated
with the joyfu l gaiety of two
characters new to the screen, a side-show
entertainer, juggler and handy-man with
other people's pockets; and his ward who
believes she is his daughter and who
loves and fi ghts for him.
The comedian 's part is played by W.
C. Fields, for years famous laughmaker
of the stage and now star of the Ziegfeld
"Follies. " The daughter's part is played
by Carol Dempster, the young California
girl who has made such sensational ad-vances
in her screen work in the last
year. The part of Sally McGargle, the
whimsical, impulsive waif of the circus,
who idolizes her "Pop, " and accepts his
greatest rogueries as the perfection of
"a noble, honorable gentleman," is the
best work of her career and one of the
memorable triumphs of screen acting.
Others whom Mr. Griffith recruited
from the stage for parts in the picture
are Alfred Lunt, star of "The Guards-man"
and Glenn Anders, featured player
in the Pulitzer prize winning play, "They
Knew What They Wanted."
The cast is the largest Mr. Griffith has
used in any picturrffceepting his great
spectacle such as ''Hie Birth of a Na-tion
," "America ," "Orphans of the
Storm" and "Hearts of the World."
The scenes are lavishly staged, vary-ing
from circus activities to the social
splendors of beautiful homes. And as
typical of Griffith' s work, the action
grows to a sensational finish , including
one of the most hilarious scenes ever
screened in which the irrepressible Mc-
Gargle drives his car across country in
an effort to get to the courthouse to save
Sally from disgrace.
Hershey High School
Students Conduct
Mornin g Assembly
Miss Ruth Liller's One-Act Play
Well Received. Students Sing
Miss Mary Taylor's Class
Song
The twel fth year class of the Junior-
Senior High School took charge of the
assembly in the auditorium on Tuesday
morning, September 28th. The pro-gram
was in charge of a committee ap-pointed
by the class who naturally as-sume
the position of moral leaders of
conduct and deportment of the student
bod y. The committee thought it fitting
to offer a repertoire of advice to the re-mainder
of the student body, both'
classical and modern.
The chairman of the committee was
the president of the class, Roy Dundore.
The other members of the committee
who planned and participated in the
program were the Misses Ruthe Liller ,
Lois Oilman , Richard Sponaugle, Parke
Spancake, Samuel Curry and Matthew
Sandy.
The program was really an experi-ment
in student direction and manage-ment
of auditorium activities. It grew
ou t of the work in the Twelfth year
En glish Class. After devotional exer-cises,
the first number was put on by
Richard Sponaugle and Matthew Sandy.
The former took the part of Polonius and
the latter of Laertes and Shakespeare's
classical advice in Hamlet from the
fa ther to the wayward son was enacted.
Sometime ago, struck by the immortal
nature of this advice, Miss Ruth e Liller
had written a short one-act play expres-sing
the terms of this classical advice in
the modern vernacular. This little play
was enacted with Samuel Curry as
Polonius and Parke Spancake as Laertes.
It was well received and the noteworthy
thing about it was thai the play was
written , directed and enacted by stud-ents
with no assistance from any member
of the teaching staff other than the in-spiration
derived from class-room work.
Another surprise which came as a
feature of this program was the singing
of the new Class Song written by Miss
Mary Taylor. The program was closed
by a class yell. It is hoped that several
such programs may be arrang ed in the
course of the year growing out of the
work in the class room and organized and
directed entirely by the students rather
than superimposed and directed by out-side
assistance. The public is cordially
invi ted to attend these affairs at any
tim e.

To Consist of Five High-Class At-tractions.
House to House Can-vass
to Be Made in Near
Future
In an effort to provide a series of good
entertainments in Hershey durin g the
coming winter months, Prof. A. M.
Hinkel has contracted with a Lyceum
Bureau for five attractions to be given
in the high school auditorium at different
times during the winter. These five
numbers are all first-class attractions
and are arranged so that they balance
each other nicel y offering high-class con-certs,
popular, versatile, novelty con-certs,
comic opera, impersonations, wit
and humor.
The following is a list of the attrac-tions
with the dates of their appearance :
Loseff's Russian Orchestra Quartet ,
Monday, November 1st.
The Davies Opera Company, Tues-day,
November 30th.
The Alexander Novelty Four, Mon-da
y, January 17th.
Burgderfer , "The Apostle of Fun ,
Monday, March 14th.
The L. Verne Slout Pla yers, Friday,
March 25th.
It is believed that the people of Her-shey
will welcome the opportunity to
attend the attractions offered through
the medium of the Lyceum Course. The
very attractive auditorium of the high
school ought in itself to assure a pleasant
evening and with the prospects of a good
entertainment, there is a double as-surance
of pleasure and profit.
A house to house canvass will be made
for the purpose of selling season tickets
in the very near future. It is hoped the
people will be eager to support this
attempt to provide high-class entertain-ment.
