Kiddaes Have Big Time at Baby Show ¦With a setting and background resembling a miniature circus, kiddies to the number of 40 or more, played around in the sand to their hearts content in the space prepared and reserved for their exclusive use in the Hershey Store during the days known as Baby Week. The circle in which they played contained toys of every description calculated to fill the youngsters with delight. Hobby-horses, see-saws, slides, automobiles, coaster wagons were but a small feature of the thrills enjoyed by the tots. All previous good times ' were totally eclipsed by the activities of the closing hours Saturday evening. Two real Shetland pon-ies galloping around the saw dust ring brought howls of delight from the youngsters and as the turn of each tot to ride on the ponies' backs came alone the enjoyment reached the climax. With the last ride, passed into history the most enjoyable time in the young careers of the little tots. Despite the very disagreeable weat her of the three last days of theTweek" the number of peoplg.wbo brought their little ones to the sjofe- numbered several hundred. Dur-ing the three days, 123 babies were registered i^'at the registration booth. There were also a number who failed to register. At the time of registration each child was given a number: Saturday evening the numbers were all placed in a box and one number drawn from it. The child holding the corresponding number was entitled to $5 worth of baby merchandise. In this case the lucky baby was HaroWLAdam Hosteller, 31 N. Lincoln Street, Palmyra. Master Harold will be one year old on the 27th day of next month. ' All babies three years and under were given a silver spoon as a souvenir of the occasion . In addition all of (he youngsters were photographed free of charge and a picture given the parents. Although old man Pluvius worked un-usually hard during the time of the Baby- Week, the event was nevertheless one of the most successful affairs in the history of the store. RAIN PREVENTS BALL GAME Jupiter Pluvius was given the decision in the game scheduled to have been played Saturday af ternoon between the Hershey Baseball team and Rutherford A. C. at Rutherford. Hershey's schedule had called for a game with the Duncannon team of the Dauphin-Perry League, but they cancelled on the local combination for some unex-plained reason and Rutherford was substi-tuted. The home season for the local boys will open Saturday afternoon with the St. Mary's team of Steelton. St. Mary's has an un-usually strong combination, particularly in the offensive department. Their fielding too is above the average. Little fear is enter-tained among the Hershey boys as to the outcome of the game. The home team will enter the game full of confidence and their practice work during the past week more than justifies that faith. The battery for the Hershey team will more than likely be Bishop and Ream. It is probable that Hummel will do the hurling for the visitors. G. O. L. TO TAKE IN NEW MEMBERS Reports from the G. 0. L. Club show that the organization is progressing nicely and several applicants are being considered for membership. The members of the club took a trip to Harrisburg Saturday return-ing late in the evening. Suitable location for a club room is being sought and it is altogether likely that the organization will be permanently located in the near future. GUN CLUB NEWS The members of the Hershey Gun Club are planning a. match to be held within the next few weeks. The large Western Auto-matic Trap arrived several days and will be placed in position within a few days. H. W. Stine, secretary of the club has re-quested that all mejnbers report at the field tomorrow evening at 7:80 o'clock. New Bakery to Open ©mi July 1st With an equipment complete in every detail the Hershey Bakery will begin operat-ing July 1, in their new quarters in the Press Building. The contract for large ovens which will be installed within the next few weeks has been given the Standard Oven Company of Pittsburg and will be capable of turning out over 2000 loaves of bread a day. The balance of equipment is being made and furnished by a French manufac-turing corporation of Paris, and by the J. H. Day Co., of New York City. In addition to the bread a specialt y will be made of the baking of French rolls, fa ncy cakes, and pastries and French bread. Situated in the modernly constructed building with all conveniences for perfect sanitary arrangements the new bakery will, upon completion, be one of the most up-to-date establishments of its kind in the state and will fill a long felt need.' BASEBALL TEAM TO STAGE BIG SHOW AH indications point to a crowded house Saturday evening when the entertainment under the auspices of the Hershey Baseball team is given in the Park Theatre. The program will consist of vaudeville and moving pictures. The movie end of the evening will be an unusual attraction, stanr-' ing Madge Kennedy, the popular actress, in one of her most winning productions, "Day Dreams." Miss Kennedy's career in the movie world has been one -of the most successful in the histor\ of the game. From her first appear-ance -wie made a decided sensation and in this picture she fairly excells any other in which she has participated. The vaudeville part of the program will be well taken care of by the Hershey Quar-tette, the Dietz brothers of Lancaster, a musical act by Fred Pronic and a singing act by Miss Lois Shea. Jud ging from all reports any one act would be well wort h the price of admission. Ever since the organiza tion of the first baseball team in Hershey, the teams have been self-supporting. As a matter of pride the boys are desirous of maintaining that reputation and for that reason decided to stage a benefi t program in an effort to raise sufficient funds to finance the team through the coming season. Hershey has always bad an unusually strong team and in order to retain such it has been found necessary to bring fast teams here from points many miles from Hershey. In order to do this and give a sufficient guarantee it can readily be seen that a considerable sum of money is required. Accordingly the members of the team and of the Men's Club are anxious to have the whole hearted support of the people of Hershey. The money derived from the show will be used for the purpose of bringing such attractions to Hershey. The price of admission has been fixed at the moderate sum of twenty-five cents and it is hoped that everyone will turn out. PALMYRA PLANS CELEBRATION Plans for a big patriotic demonstration to be held on Memorial Day, May 30, at Pal-myra, in which all returned soldiers, sailors and marines formerly of this vicinity, will take part, have been announced by the patriotic organizations of town.. The parade will have the twofold purpose of serving as a peace demonstration and home-coming reception for the more than forty men from Palmyra and vicinity who are returning one by one. Other nearby communities are invited to participate in the program. REV. TAYLOR ON A TRIP Rev. R. H. Taylor left for New York Monday to attend a Seminary Class Re-union, and thence to St. Louis to attend the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, as a commissioner from the Presby-tery of Carlisle. The Rev. John H. Reed, of Lebanon, will supply the pulpit of the Derry Presbyterian Church in the absence of Mr. Taylor, May 18 and 25. ' Hershey Press Eagerly Read in Germany From the general tone of the letter re-ceived by the Hershey. Press this week, it is evident tha t the Hershey boys who are serving with the American Army of Occupa-tion are enjoying life despite the fact that they are thousands of miles from home. From all indications however it is probable that they will be on the homeward path bef ore many weeks roll by. The letter in full follows: \^ Treves, Germany, * April 15, 1919. The Hershey Press', Hershey, Penna. Gentlemen: We are glad to say that the Hershey Press has found its way into Ger-many too and brought a little more cheer to at least two of the Hershey boys here. The slogan "Berlin or Bust" was a good one, but we only,gptNtbis far after*bjking all over this old part 'of the. world, but that-t^s>nof fault of ours, * '. ' We are glad to ni ie m your columns that the Olivets- have challenged the Independ-ents and are desirous .to know the outcome of that game. After"' trimming all the teams for miles around we think that the Olivets showed a great deal of true American sportsmanship in challenging the Independ-ents and hope that 'the' result of that game was in favor of the Hershey quintette. We have before us a copy of the Hershey Press of . March 6, 1919 and have noted the following item— "Rumor has it that Charles Fralick, better known as "Fuzzy," contracted sun-burn on the roof of his mouth while watching the flight of an aeroplane over the city Mon-day morning." May we supplement that article by saying that if our good friend "Fuzzy-" had been over here with us, he might have had more than the roof of his mouth burnt. Of course, this is submitted with due apologies to all concerned. We have been stationed in this ancient German city for quite some time and have been privileged to see the ruins of an old Roman amphitheatre, palace, buildings, and the present bridge across the Moselle River was originally of Homan construction. All of these old constructions are coneeeded to be 2000 years old. May we add that the habits and customs of these native people seem to be about as old as the buildings of Roman origin. Quite unlike the general opinion that Army life is not a busy one,, may we say that we have been very busy keeping the "Watch on the Rhine" wound.up, and take this opportunity, through your columns, to extend our best regards and best wishes to our many friends in Hershey. Respectfully, Elmer P. Swartz, Pvt., R. G. Hinkel, Corp. Company "D," 56th Pioneer Infantry, American E. F. WALTER BISTLINE CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bistline of Caracas Avenue held a delightful party in honor of the 8th Birthday Anniversary of their son Walter, Monday evening. Master Bistline was the recipient of many beautiful gifts. A very pleasant evening was spent in the playing of games after which refreshments were served. In the center of the table was a large birthday cake containing eight candles. Those present were the following: Misses Anna Brinker, Linnie Heagy, Anna Margaret Kraft, Violet Carr and Thelma Bistline; and Masters, Russel Stuckey, Kenneth Stuckey, Norman Kohr, Edison Rice, Charles Baker, Ellwood Deckard, Russel Hetrick, Robert Kraft, Ralph Bistline Jr ., Stanton Can, and Roy Carr. OLIVETS AFTER GAME Through a mix up of-some kind in the sea-son schedule the Olivets find themselves without a game for the coming Saturday. Negotiations are now pending with the man-agement of a Duncannon team for a contest but as yet nothing definite has been arranged. Victory Loam Fpt TlhroTUiglhi in Late Rally "Over the Top'." With a last minute rally the people of the Hershey District re- * sponded to the appeal to support the. Victory Loan by making a last minute stampede that nearly overwhelmed the committee in charge. With prospects anything but favor-able all over the country and indications pointing to a possible failure, the people sud-denly awakened from their lethargy and came to the rescue in true American style. When the final results were tabulated rt was seen that the loan had been oversub-' scribed by nearly one billion dollars. The final figures show that fully 15,000,- 000 persons had a hand in sending the issue over the top, which is more than the total number of buyers of the first and second issues combined. The third and fourth loans, however, exceeded the present issue in individual subscriptions. Reason for that fact can be attributed to the fact that ^labor at that time was more in demand and 'W^es^we£e.nigomejjCases considerably higher Iii-allJ^K^teMiiiss ^ues the^ersneyfdisi'' :':' > trict-hM b5^|ua8Bn:the honor roll, in each .

When the final records are com-piled and the events of the past several years are entered in the annals of history, it will be seen that Hershey has established a record that will be a matter of pride for %:. the residents of the town and the people *% , whose efforts made possible the splendid ' ' £ showing. ;? DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT "In the light of the silvery mopn:" through the masterful artistical display work of .the Hershey Store decorator, just such an atmos-pherical affect has been produced in the Park dance pavilion for the big May-Hop to be held Wednesday evening, May 21. ' Two large moons slyly peeping from behind : the clouds and casting light shadows over the floor , giving it a perfect out-door effect , will be one of the outstanding novelties of this greatest of summer dances. The Banjo-Saxo Orchestra, of Harrisburg, .conceded to be one of the best .in the state ' '. ' will furnish the music. Special cars will be run directly to the pavilion. Indications point to a large attendance from Hershey and the surrounding towns. "SWAT THE FLY" CAMPAIGN ON IN FULL FORCE "Swat the Ely"—With the advance of warm weather the various Civic Clubs all over the country are preparing to deal the . death blow to the common and dangerous pestilence, the. By. Already the. land is ' ' •being flooded with'iiumerous forms of propa-ganda urging that all possible effort be made to exterminate the common enemy. "Victory over the Fly" will be the islogan. The details of the works planned not only includes the swatting of the fly but a de-termined effort is being made to "destroy all breeding places. A number of cities have ni former years offered several cash prizes to the person destroying the largest number of flies, within a certain time. The result has always justified the expenditure as it has been the means of exterminating .millions of flies. ¦ M . ¦ It has been figured that by killing one fly, early in the season before it has had time to breed it is equivilent to killing one million later in the .summer. In the appeal sent out last week by the State Department of Health it is particularly urged that all housewives carefully screen any feeding places and keep a tight lid. " on all garbage cans. One garbage can left unscreened may be the indirect cause pf- .' ^r the death of a number of babies. According to the bulletin published by. the BSard of Health, the body of a.fly carries sufficient germs to cause the death of a yoimgbaby. ¦ ':...-M * :
