Help in the Red Cross Work Hundreds of Thousands of .,. Soldiers ' Comfort Bags Are Needed. Advice What can you in Hershey do' for the Red Cross? . Every woman should make a soldier's comfort bag. It is especially urged that .every young .woman make at least one of these bags. In the equip-ment of a base hospital, 500 to 80O of these bags are required, and, as they are the one article that the wounded qr sick soldier is allowed to take with him, there is constant need for an increased number of comfort bags. Miss Boardman, who is active chairman of the Woman Volunteer Aid advises that these bags should be made from bright colored washable material; that they should be ten by. thirteen inches, with a drawing string at the top. Bright-colored tapes should be used to bind the bags and make the strings. What Bags Should Contain . These bags also can be filled by one or more individuals making them. At this time, however, they should not put into them candy, tobacco, and other articles and other perishables or a "smelly" article, because it will be necessary to store these bags, possibly for some time. The Red Cross will see that chocolates, tobacco, etc., are supplied as the bags are distributed. What goes into the bag : Khaki-colored sewing cotton, No. 30, for the soldiers, and black sewing cotton for the sailors; white sewing cotton No. 30, white darning cot-ton, needles, No. 5; darning needle, needle case, buttons, khaki (or blackj and white medium-sized in bags three inches by five inches; a large thimble, blunt pointed scissors, safety pins, a small comb, toothbrush, small round mirror, hand-kerchiefs, lead pencils, writing pads, envelopes and post cards, playing cards, pocket knife, shoe laces, tan for the soldiefs and black for the sailors. When these bags are completed they should be taken to Red Cross head-quarters. If any one wishes to make a bag and have it filled at headquar-ters the cost of the articles put into it will be from 50 cents to $1. $18 to Outfit Bed Miss Boardman says that it costs ap-proximately $18 to. outfit each bed with linens, towels, garments, bandages, etc. The following supplies are suggested for those who desire to contribute the equipment for one patient: Sheets, 6; pillowcases, 4; pajamas, 3 suits; hos-pital bed shirts, 4; convalescent gown, 1; socks, 4 pairs; bed socks, 2 pairs; bath towels, 2; face towels) 4; washclothes, 3; slippers, 1 pair; hot-water or ice bag covers, 2. Besides such surgical supplies as gauze, bandages, knitted sponges, absorbent cotton, doctors' and nurses' operating gowns, oakum pads, etc, the Red Cross wants the women to supply in large num-bers pajamas, hospital bed shirts, shoulder wraps, and bath robes. Small Red Cross emblems for marking these garments can be had at headquarters, For an army base hospital unit of 500 beds, eighty-five boxes of these supplies are needed. For a navy base hospital unit of 250 beds forty-four boxes of these supplies are needed. Children Can Help All the children can help by .collect-ing their games and storing them care-fully away, for the Red Cross is soon going to ask all the children of the country to contribute games [or the sailors on the warships, the soldiers in camp, and the wounded in the hospitals, Miss Mabel T. Boardman sends this message to all the children: "Soldiers in camp will be very lonesome and when their daily routine work is done they should have games to amuse them. We will soon have wounded and sick in hospitals, There is nothing better to help entertain these men than the games that have helped to make you happy. Save up your games, your pictures, puzzles, and presently the Red Cross will let you know where to send them , so that they may bo distributed to the soldier and sailor, " FREE CONCERTS IN THE PARK In Hershey the free daily concerts will be continued, It is announced by the Park management that the programs will ho rendered daily from (itfO until 7:45 P, M, under the direction of John M, Rhodes of Philadelphia. ARMY SUPPLIES An unusually largo number of huge trucks go through Hershey with army supplies. This will be one of the main routes for army transportation.

In the same building is the Central Theatre and also at present are the workrooms of the Red Cross Auxiliary.

Those who are interested in such matters should see the mills, the abbattoir and the lumber yards and coal yards! When hungry either the Hershey Cafe or the Quick Lunch is ready to serve you, at prices that are hard . to match in these times of food increases. Visitors are always welcome at the printing office and are asked to inspect its modern plant. Across the railroad are the -special summer attractions.

Every evening there is a theatrical per-formance. The Hershey Zoo with its many animals and birds^-over 200—is a never-failing place of interest to young and old, the lion, the bears and monkeys attracting special attention.

Game Was a Pitchers ' Battle The Hershey Men's Club baseball team continued their winning streak by de-feating the Florin Independents in a hard fought and exciting game Saturday after-noon by the score of 2-1. T^he game was full of exciting plays and incidents, and soon developed into a . pitcher's battle between Bishop and Milles with Bishop . having the better of the argument. The records show that Bishop had 12 strike-outs to his credit and Milles lad 7. Hershey scored in the first inning when Romig hit for three bases and scored when Erickson drove a clean single into centre field. The local boys tallied again in the sixth inning when Bishop singled, advanced a base on Foster's, sacrifice, stole third and came home with the ¦ run needed to win the game when the Florin short-stop made a wild throw to first . Florin scored their run in the third inning when Russell walked and took second owing to a misinterpretation of the rules. The batter drove a ball down the first base line and Romig scooped it up and tagged him before he reached first . Romig then threw to catch the runner going to second. The ball arrived there ahead of the runner but Erickson think-ing that it was a forced play neglected to tag the man, simpl y standing on the bag. The referee called the man out and the Florin players protested, claiming that the play was not forced, Hinkle, bench manager of the local team, sustained the protest and the man was permitted to retain his bag, He scored a few minutes later on a single. Upon consulting the rule book after the game it was ascertained that the man was safe. A fair-sized crowd witnessed the game but the management is desirous of draw-ing a larger attendance and there is no reason why the game should not be patronized as the local boys are playing a sterling brand of ball and have already defeated some fast aggregations, The line-up and summary follows: Florin R, I-I.

Help in the Red Cross Work Hundreds of Thousands of .,. Soldiers ' Comfort Bags Are Needed. Advice What can you in Hershey do' for the Red Cross? . Every woman should make a soldier's comfort bag. It is especially urged that .every young .woman make at least one of these bags. In the equip-ment of a base hospital, 500 to 80O of these bags are required, and, as they are the one article that the wounded qr sick soldier is allowed to take with him, there is constant need for an increased number of comfort bags. Miss Boardman, who is active chairman of the Woman Volunteer Aid advises that these bags should be made from bright colored washable material; that they should be ten by. thirteen inches, with a drawing string at the top. Bright-colored tapes should be used to bind the bags and make the strings. What Bags Should Contain . These bags also can be filled by one or more individuals making them. At this time, however, they should not put into them candy, tobacco, and other articles and other perishables or a "smelly" article, because it will be necessary to store these bags, possibly for some time. The Red Cross will see that chocolates, tobacco, etc., are supplied as the bags are distributed. What goes into the bag : Khaki-colored sewing cotton, No. 30, for the soldiers, and black sewing cotton for the sailors; white sewing cotton No. 30, white darning cot-ton, needles, No. 5; darning needle, needle case, buttons, khaki (or blackj and white medium-sized in bags three inches by five inches; a large thimble, blunt pointed scissors, safety pins, a small comb, toothbrush, small round mirror, hand-kerchiefs, lead pencils, writing pads, envelopes and post cards, playing cards, pocket knife, shoe laces, tan for the soldiefs and black for the sailors. When these bags are completed they should be taken to Red Cross head-quarters. If any one wishes to make a bag and have it filled at headquar-ters the cost of the articles put into it will be from 50 cents to $1. $18 to Outfit Bed Miss Boardman says that it costs ap-proximately $18 to. outfit each bed with linens, towels, garments, bandages, etc. The following supplies are suggested for those who desire to contribute the equipment for one patient: Sheets, 6; pillowcases, 4; pajamas, 3 suits; hos-pital bed shirts, 4; convalescent gown, 1; socks, 4 pairs; bed socks, 2 pairs; bath towels, 2; face towels) 4; washclothes, 3; slippers, 1 pair; hot-water or ice bag covers, 2. Besides such surgical supplies as gauze, bandages, knitted sponges, absorbent cotton, doctors' and nurses' operating gowns, oakum pads, etc, the Red Cross wants the women to supply in large num-bers pajamas, hospital bed shirts, shoulder wraps, and bath robes. Small Red Cross emblems for marking these garments can be had at headquarters, For an army base hospital unit of 500 beds, eighty-five boxes of these supplies are needed. For a navy base hospital unit of 250 beds forty-four boxes of these supplies are needed. Children Can Help All the children can help by .collect-ing their games and storing them care-fully away, for the Red Cross is soon going to ask all the children of the country to contribute games [or the sailors on the warships, the soldiers in camp, and the wounded in the hospitals, Miss Mabel T. Boardman sends this message to all the children: "Soldiers in camp will be very lonesome and when their daily routine work is done they should have games to amuse them. We will soon have wounded and sick in hospitals, There is nothing better to help entertain these men than the games that have helped to make you happy. Save up your games, your pictures, puzzles, and presently the Red Cross will let you know where to send them , so that they may bo distributed to the soldier and sailor, " FREE CONCERTS IN THE PARK In Hershey the free daily concerts will be continued, It is announced by the Park management that the programs will ho rendered daily from (itfO until 7:45 P, M, under the direction of John M, Rhodes of Philadelphia.

Game Was a Pitchers ' Battle The Hershey Men's Club baseball team continued their winning streak by de-feating the Florin Independents in a hard fought and exciting game Saturday after-noon by the score of 2-1. T^he game was full of exciting plays and incidents, and soon developed into a . pitcher's battle between Bishop and Milles with Bishop . having the better of the argument. The records show that Bishop had 12 strike-outs to his credit and Milles lad 7. Hershey scored in the first inning when Romig hit for three bases and scored when Erickson drove a clean single into centre field. The local boys tallied again in the sixth inning when Bishop singled, advanced a base on Foster's, sacrifice, stole third and came home with the ¦ run needed to win the game when the Florin short-stop made a wild throw to first . Florin scored their run in the third inning when Russell walked and took second owing to a misinterpretation of the rules. The batter drove a ball down the first base line and Romig scooped it up and tagged him before he reached first . Romig then threw to catch the runner going to second. The ball arrived there ahead of the runner but Erickson think-ing that it was a forced play neglected to tag the man, simpl y standing on the bag. The referee called the man out and the Florin players protested, claiming that the play was not forced, Hinkle, bench manager of the local team, sustained the protest and the man was permitted to retain his bag, He scored a few minutes later on a single. Upon consulting the rule book after the game it was ascertained that the man was safe. A fair-sized crowd witnessed the game but the management is desirous of draw-ing a larger attendance and there is no reason why the game should not be patronized as the local boys are playing a sterling brand of ball and have already defeated some fast aggregations, The line-up and summary follows: Florin R, I-I.
