              THIS CREA MERY
NOT IN HERSHEY
Must be Stat ed Again That the Her-sjiey
Creamery ' Company is Not
in Any Way Connected With
This Town or Any M. S.
Hershey Interest
The Hershey Creamery," which is a
Harrisburg concern, was found guilty
on two counts in Harrisburg on Tuesday
of this week. One charge was for oper-ating-
\ an unsanitary plant, for which it
was fined $100, . and the other was for
making shipments of ice1 cream against
the order of the health department,
for which it was also fined $100.
This Hershey Creamery Company has
figured , in the typhoid 'epidemic ever
since- the outbreak started.; it shipped
cream to different towns and in many
of these the typhoid broke out. In
and around Harrisburg the cases num-bered
hundreds and the Hershey. Cream-ery
Company was mentioned more in
connection with the epidemic than any
other concern. ,
The leading newspapers have shown a
desire to inform their readers that the
Hershey Creamery Company of Har-risburg,
whose , operations are in Harris-burg
and which was fined in Har-risburg,
is in no way connected with the
town of Hershey or the Hershey Choco-late
Company. Several of them made the
mistake of connecting it with both, being
misled by the similarity of name,
but they printed President Murrie's
letter and in their news accounts some
of them have stated several times that
that there is no connection.
Jt is easily seen what injury may
come to a great sanitary plant man-ufacturing
a popular food product, like
the Hershey Chocolate Company, from
being associated in the public mind
with the Hershey Creamery Company.

NEW FOUNTAIN .
FOR THE PARK
James Putt is at Work on His Master-
Piece. Is to be Placed Near En-trance
Where the Deer Used
. to Stand. Will , be Made
Wholly of Concrete
James Putt is at work on what will be
the largest and finest, fountain in Hershey
and a very interesting addition to the
attractions of Hershey Park. Readers
of the Press and others know how much
he has improved the old site of the Her-shey
Press building in the Park by the
big deer monument, the sundial, the
drinking fountain and the other concrete
statuary. It has enhanced the Park
entrance wonderfully.
Now he will do even better on the
adjoining space where the deer formerly
stood. On the knoll will be placed a
beautiful fountain.
This new fountain will be of concrete
and will be cast in sand, so that it will
have the ' appearance of rock. The
base will, be round with 27 feet diameter.
On this will be a classic pedestal 3.6 feet
high. The bowl placed on this pedestal
¦will be 27 feet in diameter and 3 feet
deep. From the center of the bowl
rises an artistic pedestal 5 feet in diameter
and 5 feet high. This supports an upper
bowl 12 feet in diameter. Above that
rises the.top pedestal 7.6 feet and the top
of the small upper is a dome over which
the water flows—a great mushroom effect.
Below at the four points of the maiii
level are four smaller domes, 3.6 feet
wide and 4 feet high.
Thus there will be two water effects;
the flow and the drip from the top dome
and the upward spray from the small
fountains, this upward spray joining the
flow of the drip. Electric light effects
will make all this kaleidoscopic and beauti-ful.
The type of architecture and dec-oration
followed is the pure Ionic.
Those who want to know what the
present new handsome fountain will look
like should see the smaller fountain
which Mr. Putt has installed in the Park
Conservatory. It has attracted wide
attention as a fine piece of work. The
new fountain will be somewhat different
and will be much larger but the general
scheme is seen in the smaller work .
A BIG LESSON IN BIG MERCHA NDISING
What the Hershey Store promises on the fifth page today is a news event which
deserves mention here on the first page, because it is an apt and compelling proof of
of the value of big buying.
It offers the householders food goods at less than they could be bought for whole-sale.
Wise wives will lay in a stock of as much as they 'can get to meet their needs.
The Hershey Store can do this because it buys far ahead; it buys in big lots; it
buys with ample capital that takes advantage of every discount and every economy.
All this is placed to the benefit of its customers. The Hershey Store is rot going to
lose any money by this sale; it is going to make money, but it could make more money
by selling the whole lot of advertised things to dealers.
Thus you see why. the Hershey Store has increased its trade six times over in six
years and why the present rate of increase is the largest in its history, It has the re-sources
to buy big and the good commercial sense to divide its advantages with its
customers. In this it is looking ahead. It is making its customers come back. It
is building a wonderful business. .

FARMERS EN JOY
SIGNOR DINNER
New Superintendent of Farms and
Hershey Industrial School Host
at a Delightful Banquet at
the Hershey Cafe. Ad-dress
by Mr. Hershey
It' was a happy idea; that impelled
George C. Signor, the new superin-tendent
of the Hershey Industrial School
and of the Hershey Farms and dairies,
to invite the farmers and .dairymen
to. be his guests at a dinner at the Hershey
Cafe. They all took such interest in
it that Mr. M. S. Hersey decided that
he could not afford to miss it, so he
postponed his trip to Cuba two days in
order to be present. Besides Mr. Signor
and Mr. Hershey there were over fifty
others and they all .said they enjoyed
every minute of the feast and of the
speeches.
In the menu and the serving of the
courses Manager Krau'se was at his best.
The good things included chicken
croquettes, fried oysters, various vege-tables,
ice cream, cake, coffee, cigars and
plenty of fruit, olives and other useful
table decorations. The flowers reflected
the farm and the Lebanon Valley and
the playing of the fountain added to the
the artistic effect. There was excellent
music on the piano by Miss Sellers.
Mr. Signor in his opening remarks
welcomed everyone gracefully and set
a happy, pace for the evening. He said
it was a get-acquainted gathering and
the beginning of a series of meetings
which he hoped ^6 hold monthly. The
next meeting will be October 27 at
the Hershey Central Theater and the
speaker will be Prefessor j . A. Mc-
Lean, who is serving this week as super-intendent
of cattle at the show in Spring-field
, Mass., the largest cattle show ever
held in America. He -wanted every-one
to be present and every farmer and
dairyman to bring his friends and neigh-bors.
It will be a public meeting. Pro -
McLean is one of the highest authorities
on his subject . and he is a speaker who
interests his audience.

John E. Snyder. Esq., was asked to
state the facts of the new farm and
Industrial School Organization. This he
did and it was an address of wide range
and able review , to which everyone listen-ed
with very unusual attention. He
explained how all the Hershey farms and
dairies had been thrown into the In-dustrial
School and thus there had been
created not only a great proposition of
agriculture but of unique opportunity
in practical education whose influence
would be far reaching, His address was
a tribute to the vision of Mr. Hershey
and a plea for the co-operation of all with
Superintendent Signor who hud been
chosen to do the work, The applause for
Mr, Snyder was very, cordial ,
When called upon Mr. Hershey did
not want to speak but his talk proved to
be the best speech he ever made, The
Impression on everyone was unmistakable.
He had been urged , ho said ,
to use his money for many ' purposes—¦
for bonds, stocks and all forms of in-vestment
and speculation—but he had
thought ho could do more good by buying
these "shadow farms" and giving them
a new life, He had spent more money
in providing modern buildings and every
kind of ofllcionl equipment to help farmer
and dairyman and ho hud placed on the
farms stock of quality, In short , ho had
provided the facts and materials for good
men to produce results. Ho paid a
tribute to the men and said he was
delighted to meet thorn; he had changed
his plans and deferred an important
business trip two days to bo present at
the dinner, Ho asked for cooperation
and he bqliovcd that the spirit shown
meant that the 'fanners and dairymen

Dr. Patterson s Eloquent Address
Showing Practical Tempe ran ce
It was the especial regret of everyone
present that through some misunder-standing
of announcements there was
not a much larger number present to
greet "Catch my-pal" Patterson and hear
his very unique temperance address in
the Central Theatre Sunday.
Dr. Patterson is well known on both
continents as the founder of the "Catching
my-pal" movement, which is( now seven
years old. As pastor of a Presbyteriari
church in North Ireland he was providen-tially
led, as he believes, to inaugurate
one of the most powerful movements
for the saving of men as individuals
from the. use of strong drink that the
world has ever known.
Dr. Patterson's address consisted large-ly
in telling the story of th|s movement
from its beginning in 1909" and a mar-velous
story it was, told in a most dramatic
way.
To the ordinary temperance pledge
is added the agreement to "Catch one
More" and bring him to the same agree-ment,
Hundreds have thus been re-deemed
from drink and saved to serve
their fellows and their God in a most
effective way, His illustration of the
impossibility of loving and serving
God without at the same time loving
and serving man will never be forgotten
by those who saw that great ocean
steamer cut In halves by a submarine
yet still struggling on.
The address was in the two-fold In-terest
of the "Catch my-pal" movement
and the Anti Saloon league work of the
Stale. An offering was taken for the
latter cause at the close of the meeting.
