AN OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR FROM
ONE WHO HAS BEEN IN TRENCHES
German drive. He visited the graves of
the first Americans slain and saw the
ruins and reconstruction work in France.
Ambassador Sharpe secured an invitation
for him from the British Government to
visit their front. He was.the only Ameri-can
civilian there at the time. He visited
Ypres, Messine Ridge and other points
of interest, was under fire five times in
the trenches with the soldiers, and watched
actual fighting from an observation post.
He was in Paris and London air raids and
familiarized himself with conditions of
French and British life.
Mr. Woodfin has spoken before many
of the large bodies in America, including
the Presbyterian General Assembly at its
last meeting in Dallas, Texas, where he
made the leading address after the report
on temperance. He has invitations to
speak in many of the largest churches in
Pittsburgh, New York, St. Louis and else-where.
He is at present on a tour which
will embrace all the principal cities in
Pennsylvania.
PATRIOTIC SOCIAL A SPLENDID
SUCQESS
The patriotic social given by the L. P.
W. class of the Derry Presbyterian
Church was held on .Tuesday evening,
July 9th, on the lawn of the church.
The social was well attended, although
the weather was very threatening. The
program was of the patriotic kind, as
well as the decorations.
The first selection was the singing of
"America," by the audience. The . L.
P. W. class then sang "Our Flag and Free-dom,"
followed by a recitation by
Esther B. Snavely, entitled, "Can You
Answer Promptly When They Call the
Honor Roll?" A solo was rendered by
Lydia G. Weltmer, "A Baby's Prayer at
Twilight." The L. P. W. Class gave
another selection entitled " "Knitting."
Ruth Esbenshade then sangj two solos,
"When the Great Red Dawn is Shining,"
and "On the Road to Home §weet Home."
"The Battle Song of Liberty," was sung
by the L. P. W. Class, followed by a talk
by Rev. Taylor. The last feature of the
program was the "Star Spangled Banner"
which was sung by everyone. Ice Cream
and cakes were sold on the lawn and the
young folks enjoyed games. The pro-ceeds
will be divided between the L. P.
W. Class and the Hershey Red Cross
Branch.

REV. W. M. WOODFIN, OF PHILA-DELPHIA,
FRESH FROM THE
TRENCHES, WILL ADDRESS
UNION MEETING AT
HERSHEY PARK ON
SUNDAY EVENING
In order that the people of Hershey may
know the real conditions under which the
American boys are fighting in France, the
Rev. W. M. Woodfin, a Pennsylvanian
and a Presbyterian minister who is fresh
from the trenches will deliver an address
in the Hershey Park Theatre on Sunday
evening, July 14th, at 7:45 o'clock.
Mr. Woodfin will especially correct the
false impression which has gained con-siderable
ground to the effect that the
morals of the American boys at the front
are not all that they should be. He has
different views, gained from close associa-tion
with the boys and in fact he went over
just for that purpose. So that the folks
back home will feel more confident in the
efforts of their relatives and friends who
are doing their bit to rid the world of Hun
domination, Mr. Woodfin has undertaken
a tour of Pennsylvania to talk directly to
the people and tell them what he has seen.
The subject of Mr. Woodfin 's address
is "War as Germany Wages It " and in
telling his story he will be aided by stereop-ticon
slides which graphically bring then-own
message without use of words. The
pictures from which the slides were made
were taken by Mr. Woodfin himself who
visited the trenches and more than once
was under fire. They show among other
things, the American boys, the Tommies
and the French soldiers engaged in digging
trenches, earring amunition, doing Red
Cross work, the captured guns of the
Huns and the devastated territory in
France, including the places where much
of the heavy fighting is now going on.
The Rev. Woodfin was for eight years
pastor of the Swarthmore Presbyterian
church, Swarthmore , Pa., one of the fash-ionable
suburban churches near Philadel-phia.
During his ministry there he or-ganized
and led the Delaware County
No-License League which was one of the
formidable forces against liquor in that
part of the State. He was later called
to be Associate Secretary of the Presby-terian
Board o[ Temperance with head-quarters
in St. Louis.
Last December he was commissioned by
the Presbyterian Board and the Federal
Council of Churches to go to France to
study social conditions in the army. He
was permitted to speak in Y. M. C. A.
huts along the front and knows social
conditions throughout the army as few
men in America know them. He has
received a letter from Pershing's head-quarters
expressing high appreciation for
the service which he rendered to the army
and to the people at large in correcting
the false and malicious reports that had
been circulated in America concerning
moral conditions in France. His articles
on the social conditions in France have
been published throughout- America and
quoted by such magazines as the "Lit-erary
Digest."
While in France Mr. Woodfin spent
about a week along the French front see-ing
the devastated area, the troops and
the preparation being made for the big
"OUR CHILDREN," ONE OF THE
GREATEST MORAL PLAYS ON
THE STAGE TODAY, PRO-DUCED
THIS WEEK
The Offering for the Past Week of th«;
Pickert Sisters Stock for the Park
Was One of the Funniest Plays
Ever Seen at- Hershey
"How to Make a Mil- , .
lion" Was Title I
Miss Lillian Pickert, as Rose, had a pari
that seemed to appeal to the large crowc
present at every performance, and the
double singing number with Mr. Cham"
bers, -assisted by Mri Barnes, and Miss
De Millo, was a riot.
Mr. Chambers was never better ani.
Mr. Foote, Dodson, and Miss Florence
Hall had the audience laughing from star ;
to finish.
The vaudeville was extra good. The
Saxophone Jazz Band assisted , by Jacl :
Rhoads's excellent orchestra was a big
hit. I
Tom Williams in comedy singing and
talking went over very big.
Baby Carol Pickert Dodson, four years
of age, carried off the honors at the mat-inee
on the Fourth of July, with,her sing-ing
and toe dancing.
The first half of this week the company
produced the play of Jane Eyer, adapted
from the famous, book of the same, written
try Charlotte Bronte, and one of Ithe most
widely read books ever written. Miss
Pickert in the title role once moije demon-strated
her versatility of going fj-om light
to heavy roles. Mr. Foote, Mr. Chambers
and other members, were all up to their
past standard. | ,
The scenery was fine,—a very realisti;
fire scene showing the burning of ths
castle tower, was a very nice effebt.
The last half of this week the!company
has picked the greatest of all moiral plays,
"Our Children." The ; play Iras pro-duced
in Harrisburg last winter! at $1.50
prices under the title of "Uev Unborn
Child." It was a big success5, a play-absolutely
clean and one of the greatest
moral lessons ever written and' every
mother and daughter should s^e it. A.
fine line of comedy runs all through the
play relieving the scenes just at the mc-ment
you want to cry. Special scener y
will be used in this as well as all the plaj s
produced by this company during their
stay at the park, and new vaudeville it
every performance. ;
Your are missing a treat when you fail
to witness one of the excellent perform-ances
produced by this popular Company.
Next week they will play another 'one
of those funny comedies that made such
a hit last week..
PICNIC FOR Y. W. C. A- JUNIORS

classes are requested to attend a picnic
in the park. The children will meet at
the Y. W* C. A. building on Saturday

from there they will go to the park. There
will be games and stories for the children.
We want you to say:"Oh! I am si
prised."
