Palmyra to Have a New Depot
Hon. Gabriel Mover Gomes Out a Victor
Last week we stated that Hon. Gabriel
Moyer had gone on the warpath; It
wasn't a lengthy warfare, for no sooner
had the enemy become known of .Mr.
Moyer's intentions than what they hung
out the white flag. . The Reading Rail-road
Company has promised that 'Pal-myra
shall have a new depot and that
plans have been prepared and arrange-ments
made to this effect. As it. is, we
take off our hat to Old Guard Moyer.

The first shipment of animals for the
Hershey Park Zoo arrived on Friday
morning. They comprise of two deer.
They are only in their infancy, and are
as cute as cute^
can be. It is the inten-tion
to have seven deer in the collection.
The others are expected sometime be-fore
the Park is opened.

First Shipment Comprise of Two Does, and
More Are to Follow
We have been informed by Mr. Wm.
Shaffner that he was not the - hero of
fie fire which occu red at tne heme
, of Jacob Shirk last Sunday evening.
He states that at the time of the fire he
was ten miles away and he says . that
Mr. Ammon Metzger was the herd. .
Ammon came into the room and espied
Mr. Harry Sahm's overcoat ablaze Ammon did hot like to see an overcoat*-
get a^yay in.-this manner, so he got busy-and
proceeded to rescue it. But hia
efforts were fruitless, as the overcoat
gave him the ha ha. There is one thing-certain,
Mr. Sahm did not ha ha when,
he heard about what had become of his
overcoat.
We did not have tip wait until the firsfc,
anniversary of the Press for our re--
ward. Mr. Glynn ' was feeling, in a;
cheerful mood and presented us with a.
notebook. Our reward is indeed great
We immediately gave him.a. vote of
thanks'. The excitement was too much
for us, seemingly, for when we had -an--
. occasion to use this notebook, and upon •
looking for the same,, we found that .it.
had taken wings and flown away. We-now
have a search warrant out for it*.
So here's hoping. ' ¦ ¦ • . . 7 7'

Opening of the Y. M. C. A.
Old Spring Creek got saucy on Fri-day,
and for a time it looked as though
it was going to play the very dickens.
But it didn 't. Nevertheless^ it'.got to
such a height as to prevent the trolley
cars from running between Hershey
and Palmyra. . The Creek raged itself
into a regular, whirlpool at the new dam
but recently constructed^ but Mr. Herr
had put his stamp of approval on this
dam, and the whirlpool was as nothing.
