              Gym Classes Open
at Hershe y Men's
Club Monda y
For the past few weeks the Hershey
Men's Club has been putting on a business
like aspect with the carpenters and painters
hustling around getting the gymnasium in
¦Readiness for the winter season. New
boarding has been placed around the sides
of the gym and the walls have been neatly
painted . The floor has been rubbed down,
varnished and lined and all the apparatus
has been gone over and placed in A-l
condition.
It is being planned to make the Hershey
Men's Club, the center of activities this
winter and to this end classes are being
formed, which range from the little fellows,
knee high to a grasshopper, through the
Intermediate, Junior and Senior classes to
the old timers or the Busy Men's Class.
Even the ladies ha\e not been forgotten
and as in former years, Thursday night
will be devoted exclusively to the fair sex.
Beginners classes for the ladies will be
held on Thursday evenings from 7 to 8, at
which time all non-swimmers will be given
instruction in group form.
The gym classes will begin on Monday
Sept. 28th, and are open to all men and
boys in Hershey and vicinity.
All should avail themselves of this op-portunity
to build up their bodies and im-prove
their health. ' Membership in the
Hershey Men's Club is most reasonable
indeed and the various classes should be
filled to the utmost every evening.-
Work has already begun at the Indus-trial
School, where instructor Alex Ma-grini
is conducting the physical work at the
recess periods for the first eight grades.
The recess periods have been lengthened
to thirty minutes and the field across from
the main building is being used for this
purpose, where over sixty boys can be seen
at one time enjoying the games and drills.
This takes place of the evening classes of
last year.
The schedule for the Men's Club Classes
this year, is as follows:
Noon Class—Swimming; Monday, Wed-nesday
and Friday, from 12 to 1, Noon

Hershe y High Opens
Season Oct. 3rd
With three weeks of preliminary training
under the direction of "Coach" Palmgren,
the Hershey High School will be in splendid
condition to open its 1925 season with a
brighter outlook than for several previous
years. With the first call for candidates
a bunch of "huskies", numbering about
forty, responded. Since then the squad
has been cut to 26 men to permit each man
to receive individual instruction as to the
fundamentals of the game. The squad is
in a good physical condition , with the
exception of a few bruises and Charley
horses.
Only four letter men of last year 's varsity
remain, and with this nucleus and seven
more well trained "grcenies", a smooth
working combination should be the result.
The team averages between 130 and 135
lbs. and Coach Palmgren is quickly whipp-ing
into shape a fast back field.
The coach for this year is George L.
Palmgren, who succeeds I lenry R. Doug-las.
Mr. Palm gren is an all-around
athlete , having been a three letterman at
U. Sala College, N. J., where he graduated
in 1923. He took post-graduate work at
Rut gers College and University of Penn-sylvania.
He also has taken up Y. M. C.
A. worj< , specializing in physica l education
and coaching. For the past two years Mr.
Palmgren was coaching for Adams High
School of the Johnstown district , and
developed a championship team last
season. Wi th such a well experienced and
trained coach and promising material ,
Hershey High School should turn out a
winning team.
The big game of the season will bo with
Palmyra on the Hershey Park Athletic
field on Saturday, Oct. 31.
The members of the squad are as fol-lows:
Parry, Yingst , Oilman , Carver,
Sours, Suavel y, Fasnncht , S. Curry,
Wagner, Flanagan , L. Stover , Warner,
Gish , Bnlsbaugh , Hersh ey, A. Curry',

Me and the Girl Friend.
When I 'm walking with my sweetie
Down the path so nicely graveled ,
The way seems short as always seem
Ways that are by lovers traveled.
When the moon looks down discreetly
Through the branches overthreading,
I like to walk and talk with her,—
She's the one that hails from Reading.
When the dimpled waters ripple
' On the lake the pathway borders. •
It makes me jealous that the breeze
Playfully her hair disorders. ¦
When she gets a piece of gravel
On the inside of her slipper,
I am the friend she leans upon,—
She's a queen, believe me. Skipper!
Pat and Bill.
In the dear, dead days now gone—we
hope beyond recall, we used to drive a
team of horses whose names, as we remem-ber
them were respectively, Pat and Bill.
Pat was a knee-spring sorrel who lay down
whenever his exertions in the field became
too much for him. Bill was a whale of a
horse, and we always gave him two or three
inches the short end of the doubletree.
Bill's one failing was the blind staggers,
and the longer we kept him, the more fre-quent
and severe grew the attacks which—
we imagine—are to a horse what delirium
tremens—we are still imagining—is to a
human being. It got so that whenever we
were driving Bill single in the buggy and
we came to a steep down grade, the darn
fool would rear up on his hind feet and
actually try to get in the wagon to rids
with us. And it was indeed annoying to
have Pat lie down when half way across a
ploughed field , but there was nothing to do
but to sit down on the spring tooth harrow
and wait till he had his nap out.
We buried old Pat down in the cow
pasture by the creek, and his hide made us
a lovely robe, very protective on a cold day.
We sold Bill to a man who was, in his own
opinion, a good judge of hoss flesh. The
consideration was a seven-jewel, key-winder
watch and seven dollars. And
you can't imagine how surprised we looked
when he who now owned Bill told us of
Bill's circus stunts and offered us another
watch , this one a stem-winder, if we would
take Bill back again. Discretion , which
they tell us, is the better part of valor,
badeusrefe us.
These rememberings torn from the book
of the dim and distant past are all very
well, but , as we have said before , what is a
story for, if not to point a moral:—
Whenever in the old days we took a load
of buckwheat, baled hay, or veal calves to
town, old Bill was always in the lead.
Bill's end of the doubletree was always
ahead. Pat's end was always behind.
Yet Pat had to pull just as much as though
he had kept even. Yes, he had to pull a
little more, for he was always trying to
catch up. If you will permit us to draw a
parallel, tha t is the way it is in life. Some
folks are always in the lead , yet they need
work no harder than the fellows who are
always just a little behind , but trying to
catch up. The only disadvantage we can
see in always keeping your end of the
doubletree a little ahead of the other
fellow 's is that the boss is pretty apt to put
you on the short end . But even that sort
of a life has its little recompenses, usually
of a monetary nature.
A Slight Error
The advertisement of the circus should
have read, "Come and see Eli Strongfoot
whose feat of strength has never been
equaled. "
However, just because the printer made
a slight mistake, making the ad read ,
"Come and see Eli Strongfoot whose
strength of feet has never been equaled ,"
the editor of the Cider Press, Apple Hills
Leading Weekly Paper, fails to sec why Eli
should have taken a fence, or several
fences, and , after Strongfooting him
vigorously, should have proceeded to use
him as a dust mop with which to wipe up
the editorial sanctum.

"Well , sir," says the Man with the

"Those Murphies you spoke about just
now were pretty good size all right , but
they weren 't quite as big as one 1 raised
myself in my garden right here in Hershey
the time I owned the lot where my neigh-bor

so big that when we had our family re-union
, we built a fire inside that spud and
roa sted it , and then the whole thirty-seven
of us ate our dinner inside of it. And I
almost forgot to mention I hat wheu we dug

Hershey Kinder gar-ten
Opens Monda y
With 15 Kiddies
The Hershey Kindergarten will open on
Monday, Sept. 28th, in the Grade School
building, and will be in charge of Mrs.
Truman B. Thompson, of Harrisburg.
Fif teen pupils have already enrolled , and
Mrs. Thompson is hoping to have this
number increased considerably. If inter-ested
, her phone is Bell, 7-5733J.
Probably- no other part of the school
syster/ .^es its work so well as the kinder-garten,
which deals with children generally
between 4 and 6 years of age. It was
planned by a very wise man, Freidrich
Frobel, and it has been part of our system
for fift y years. Cheap witticisms have
often been turned against the kindergarten
with its babies, its enthusiastic young
women teachers and ks symbolic plays;
but it has been a criticism born of ig-norance.
The principles and practices of
the kindergarten rest in a profound knowl-edge
of child nature, singularly developed
for the time when Frobel lived , and in a
wise vision of the meaning of life.
Any intelligent observer who watches a
good kindergarten for an hour cannot fail
to see the children grow into citizenship in
the little democracy gathered within the
room. And the same qualities will enable
the child when a man to be a good citizen
of Hershey, of the United States and of the
commonwealth of the world.

Senator Leland Stanford had one son,
who as a little child was sent to a kinder-garten.
So profoundly was his father
impressed by the training his child received
that he devoted his past fortune to the
creation of Stanford Universi ty, which he
conceived as an expansion of the kinder-garten
plan to cover the whole period of
life. John Hopkins was established on the
same fundamental principle.
At present this country lack teachers and
money for public education and there is a
tendency everywhere to cut out expense,
School boards are not often made up of
educational experts and they are prone to
say: "The little ones can wait; they will
get it later."
All the babies in the United States,
American, Irish , Hebrew, German, Czech-slovak
and Italian , must be Americanized.
As many of their alien parents, and friends
as can be reached should be drawn to an
understanding and acceptance of our
national language, ideals and practices.
The kindergarten should be extended and
strengthened, just now as never before,
because of the fieed for an orderly adjust-ment
following the years-of disruption
through which we have just passed.

Frances Howard , who made her motion
picture debut in "The Swan," has her
second picture engagement in a featured
role in support of Richard Dix in his new
Paramount starring picture, "Too Many
Kisses," which will be the feature at the
Hershey Central Theatre on Saturday

for the screen from the Cosmopolitan
Magazine serial, "A Maker of Gestures,"

The star plays the role of a fickle young
American whose many love affairs result
in countless breach of promise suits. His
exasperated father ships him off to the
Basque country in the Pyrenees to get him
away from girls, only to have him fall in
love with a dark eyed senorita , Yvonne,

William Powell, seen in "The Bright

at Hershe y
Central Theatre
The theatrical area of Hershey has taken
on a Broadway glamor. A large electric
sign has been placed above the entrance of
the Hershey Central Theatre, and Uussell
Zentmeyer, the progressive and alert
manager of that up-to-date theatre is
pleased to sticks. Not only that the sign
lights up everything for blocks away, but
that it has also been the means of attract-ing
numerous passersby, helping fill the
theatre to capacity on Tuesday, Thursday
and Saturday evenings. This is as it
should be, for the pictures are right-up-to-the-
minute, and are shown at popular
prices. For less than the car fare to Har-risburg
or Lebanon, one can spend an
evening's amusement, and in many in-stances
see pictures even before they are
shown in either of those two cities.

High School A. A. En-coura
ges and Fosters
Athletic Activities
The High School Athletic Association
was busy during the past week enrolling
the pupils of the Junior-Senior High School
as members of the association. Very
splendid results have been obtained.
Room 10A was the first to report a one
hundred percent enrollment, with dues
paid in advance for the entire year. Room
8C followed closely with a one hundred
percent pledged membership but not entire
ly paid up.
The Athletic Association is an organiza-tion
of enthusiastic and loyal pupils who
encourage and foster the various athletic
activities of the school. It is the only
common bond among the various classes
of the school—the common desire for
ath letic prowess.
The success of the athletic teams usually
depends upon the loyalty of the Atheltic
Association, because the teams are the
product of the Association and each mem-ber
feels a vi tal interest in the teams.
Prof. A. M. Hin kel, the Supervising
Principa l , announces that he has learned
that where schools have winning teams, he
finds that the membership of the Athletic
Association extends far beyond the per-sonnel
of the school . First of all, the
Alumni of the school form a large integral
part of the Association, who by their
loyalty as well as by the contribution of
their membership fees become a potent
factor in the success of the teams.
Then their is the honorary membership.
This is made up of the loyal patrons of the
school throughout the community, in-fluential
citizens, business men, men of
affairs. The assurance that men and
women of this type are backing and sup-l>
orting the activities of the school , is be-yond
doubt the most powerful stimulus
tha t any team can receive.
The school authorities heartily endorse
and recommend an Athletic Association
whose membership shall embrace a student
Ixxly, an alumni backing, and an honorary
membership. The income accruing from
the clues of these combined bodies would
make i t jxissible to purchase such equip-ment
as will give the contestant the great-est
efficiency and the greatest protection.
This is not possible from the very small
sum of money received from the school
mcml)ci'sh!p, who, of the three possible
bwlics mentioned alxive, are least able to
cont ribute.
Thi s plan is working out admirabl y in a
number of communities. Are the alumni
and the people of the community less loyal
to their children and their schools? We
hope not. We rather ho|ie that the same
pride that our (iconic manifest in the fact
that they are residents of such a favored
communi ty, will also prompt them to
affiliate themselves with the school in
becoming members of the High School
Athletic Association. An opixirtiinlty for
enrollment in this school organiza t ion will
he given within a few days.
