They Md'been spending the evening at Harris-burg;:; taking in a show at the Majestic Theatre, occupying seats in the bald-head tow. After the show they returned to Hershey, .and were coining down the Har^ risburg Hill at a fairly good speed, when, before "Toby" could say Jack Robinson, the Overland turned completely around and proceeded up the hill toward Harris-burg, and what do you, think?. Right in front of them stood E.' L. Bomgardner's Ouraht, '-which had . endeavored to. do the same stunt, but which had not quite made the turn. For the rest, of the story—see "Toby". Samuel Moyer writes that he is enjoying good health at Asheville, "Land of the Sky", North Carolina, and that he hopes to be back in Hershey fit as a fiddle by Spring. 7 A number of .Hershey's younger set en-joyed a sleigh-ride to Grantville on Wed-nesday evening of last week, where they sat down to a well-laden table consisting of chicken, waffles, and innumerable other savory dishes. Those present were: Flor-ence Dersheimer, Jessica Dersheimer, Gregg Darrow, Calista Diller, Kathryn Erford, Mrs.. Paul Zentmeyer, Mrs. How-ard- Romig, Mrs. Robert Sattazahn, Robert -Sattazahn, Howard Romig, Paul Zentmeyer, i.Mervin Holland, Paul Ging-rich, John Mussleman, Ed. Lewis and Paul Shultz. "Peggy" Putt is in charge of the shoe shine parlors at the Hershey barber empor-ium.. "Peggy" has just returned from North Dakota, where he has a homestead ranch of several hundred acres, and which has every indication of being rich in oil.. In fact,, "Peggy" has leased his ranch' to a company, and any day lie may receive news that may make it possible for him to be riding around in a Packard. But in the meantime he is willing to give you the best shine you ever had for the money. You see; "Peggy" believes in taking life as it conies, which isn't a half bad idea at all. , The Hershey Volunteer Fire Company's rooms is a popular place these evenings. The pocket billiard tables are always in use bythe cue and chalk artists. The pinochle sharks keep the card tables well occupied, while there is room for the solitaire player and the, checker player, and if you are so inclined; may read your favorite news-paper, (if you buy it). We are gJad to say there is no loud-mouthed and boisterous talk, or profanity, but good-natured josh-ing which does no one ony hann.i—for its all in fun. The firemen are indeed to be congratulated upon having such an excel-lent place in which to gather, and possibly iec-me day even these quarters may be im-proved upon. - John Barfo, who drives the wagon for the Hershey bakery, had a narrow escape on Saturday....

We are certain this artistic little trio will prove an innovation of great nierit-^worthy of the backing of the' best minds of 'Communities—yet cap-able of giving delightful entertainment to ¦everyone; .¦."."-¦ ;/ - ':\ .?"'; ' ' .. ' • The program is unique, while the person-nel of the company, has been carefully chosen. "Love Among the Ljons" and "Potato Soup," two short plays^ will be given by this delightful trio; these plays are of real heart interest, and are presented by artists of experience and thorough schooling; as a prelude and interlude to these plays there will be music of such character as to lend atmosphere to them. Mr. Keith Conover, a manly actor, is also a baritone of exceptional quality. Miss Thora Keeler, is especially suited for the parts in which she is cast, small and petite with an infinite fund of humor which lies next to tears. ' In interludes she presents some of- her child, impersonations. Miss Evelyn Fonda plays leading 'roles in the sketches and is also a very fine musician. . We can-think of no program that will have a more popular appeal. '» ; ¦ The townspeople should turn out eh-masse on: this evening, for, this is going to be one of the best numbers of the course. ' Moreover, there remains ; a deficit of $25.00, arid the ladies', who are the guaran-tors of the Course,'will have to makejup this deficiency unless the.fifty .additional people attend the last number. ' Surely there are fifty persons in Hershey and vicinity, in addition to those who have already bought season tickets', who will want to see "The National Trio," and which will enable the ladies to come out even—financially at least. They have put in a good deal of their time looking after the many details of putting ori this splendid Lyceum Course in Hershey. They have done their part, so let's us arise to the occasion and do our part. Hold Health * •Contest In Schools For the purpose of bringing about great-er interest in "Health", a composition contest was held in the 6th Grade of the Hershey Schools. Miss Lois PfahleT, teacher of Hygiene, offered a prize in each room for the best original composition. The subject was "How to be healthy and strong". Neatness, spelling, form and subject matter were the points considered in judging. . Victor DeAngelis wrote the best com-position in 6B, while George Bohner wrote the best in 6B. The prize, which was a pocket knife, was awarded each boy. The compositions are as follows: Once there was a little boy, who lived in a big, clean house. He went to school and learned many ways by which he could keep healthy and strong. He was always nice and clean, and combed his hair every day. He drank milk every day, took a bath about twice a week, brushed his teeth, and played out-of-doors as much as possible taking plenty of exercises. All the boys and girls liked him very much. If he would see a boy or girl who wasn't clean, he would show them how to be, clean, healthy, and strong. When he went home in the evening after school, he did his. home work. Then when it was time to go to bed, he brushed his teeth, washed his hands and face, opened his windows and got into bed. After about ten hours sleep, he got up, washed his hands and face, brushed his teeth,. and went to breakfast. He ate cooked cereals, and ran off to school, where he could learn more about being healthy. —Victor DeAngelis, 6B Jack Colby was the son of a wealthy lawyer, Jiving in New York. Jack's mother, like himself was a very careless woman and never cared whether her son got the proper food or exercise. Jack could have all the money he wanted but he was always spending it for rich food like candy, pies, cakes and ice cream. He never went to bed before ten or twelve o'clock and got up around noon. This was very bad for him and he was getting stouter every day. He hardly left the house any more because the other fellows were always teasing him about his stoutness. After Jack went to bed one night he lay awake a long time planning and thinking what he could do to make the fellows stop teasing him. He decided that night that he would go to visit his aunt for awhile, who lived in the West on a big truck farm. His parents said that he could go and he left the next week. Jack's Aunt Mary was a kind, motherly woman and took a great interest in Jack. He worked hard all that summer, drank fresh milk daily, ate wholesome food and followed the motto, "Early to bed and early to rise." He found the man healthy, wealthy and wise." He found the results very good. Instead of fat he developed strong muscles. Instead of a tired look he had a healthy complexion and teeth that shoncllke pearls because of the good scrub-bing they got every day. When ho returned to the city he was a changed tray. His parents were now proud of him. He told hia father that he wished he could do some-thing {or the boys in the city who did not have a chance like he did to try to improve their health, His father bought a big farm and sent boys from the city to this farm to work in the good fresh air, eat the vegetables and things they raised on the farm, dr(nk the good fresh milk , keep their bodies clean, brush their teeth, and in this way get health and strength, —By George Bohner, 6A. Juni ors Defeat Sophomor es One of the most interesting inter-class games played, was witnessed by a large crowd on Wednesday evening, January 17.

"The Ghost Breaker" is a big production' of the tremendously successful play of-the samename. The story deals with a young American who falls in love with a Spanish princess, and goes to her haunted castle to drive the ghosts away. He finds the ghosts are crooks,- but not until after many hair-raising adventures. Wallace Reid has a part full of action and comedy and Lila Lee, as the princess, has an opportunity to wear some marvel-ous gowns. * It is superbly staged and packed full of excitement. The director is Alfred Green, who made Mary Pickford's "Little Lord Fauntlerby." The scenario is by Jack Cunningham. The original play was written by Paul Dickey and Charles God-dard. The above picture will be presented at the Central Theatre on Saturday, Jan.27th instead of "The Greatest Love," originally booked for this date. See "Calvert 's Valley" Tuesday Mystery, Jove and adventure are blended in the latest William Fox production, "Calvert's Valley," starring John Gilbert, which will be shown at the Hershey Cen-tral Theatre on Tuesday evening, Jan 30th, at 7:30 o'clock. Mr. Gilbert's magnetic personality has won him a host of friends. His admirers will be glad to hear that his latest picture offers exceptional opportunities for his ability. Mr. Fox has surrounded the star with a notable supporting cast, including such favorites as Sylvia Breamer, Philo Mc- Cullough, Herschel Mayall and Lulu Warr-enton. ' Mr. Gilbert plays the role of a young lawyer, who is both brilliant and popular. The solution of the mystery is exceed-ingly ingenious and will undoubtedly come as a surprise to even the most blase movie fan. "Calvert's Valley" is said to be dis-tinguished by an exceptionally beautiful love story. Hershe y Firemen Do Good Work The Hershey Volunteer Fire Company did commendable work at the Palmyra fire on Tuesday afternoon, when farming implements and real estate valued at $25,- 000 were destroyed. The Packard and the Ford were at the scene but a few moments after word was received, Hal Boyer drove the Packard to Palmyra at a speed of 50 miles an hour, nnd it took him a little less than three minutes to get to the fire. Prior to the arrival of the firemen a two-story frame factory and two adjoining buildings were ablaze. After the Packard got into action, in conjunction with the Palmyra fire engine, the fire was soon under control. The crowd commended the Hershey firemen upon the excellence of their work, and spoke highly of the power-ful engine wo have; The engine was placed almost two blocks away from £he (Ire, but nevertheless the amount of water that It played on the flames was enormous nnd at a terrific velocity. Fire companies from Annyille nnd Leb-anon were also present, The Hershey firemen were: John Conrad, John Snavely, Joe Martin, Hernrtan Severs, Parke Cassady, Wm, Hyland , Tom Black, Hal Boyer, Geo, Lnfforty and Dave Dltz-ler. 1 1 ' i Spring is not far offV'nt least there will not be much more ' cold weather , accordin g to a Sunbury woman, who asserts that she has seen a bluebird disporting itself around her homo for the last few days, ¦ Bluebirds are supposed to be certain harbinge rs »of sprin g;1 ¦ • " ¦ ' :• ¦ . ¦ \> >j '<i' .u7,'"7 ¦ -' An Organ Recital Sunday, Feb. 4th An organ recital of exceptional merit will be rendered, in the Holy,Trinity Luth-eran Church, Hersheyiton Sunday after-noon, February 4th, at/io'clpck. : ~ The redtal wul be glyertiby ProLvBer-nard R.

He formerly, was at the head of the Conserva-tory of Music at Schenectady, N. Y. He studied under some of the best masters in New York City, and is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Berlin and the Royal Academy of London. Mr, Mauserf is well known for his won-derful interpretation and his firm techni-que. His program will consist of ten numbers and bids fair to excel! anythjhg that has ever been heard in Hershey. Mrs. Fearing H. Morris, a member of the faculty of the Mausert Studios will be present in the capacity of soloist for the program. Mrs. Morris is a Violin Soloist of repute, a former teacher in the state of California. She was a pupil of such cele-brated teachers as Antonio de Grassi, Sig-mund .Beel and Louis Persinger.

The recital is given under the auspices of the Bible Class :taught by Mrs. Clark Bare. A cordial invitation is extended to the public to attend this recital. The program of the recital will be published in the next issue of the Press. Hershey Studio Is Up-to-Date The Hershey Photographic Studjo is being equipped with two new lights, which are of such enormous power that a special line had to be brought in to carry the cur-rent to supply them. William Hoy, the electrician, who is in charge of the work, states that the globes, which are of the daylight-blue nitrogen type, are among the: largest in Hershey, the only other place where lights of equal power are used, is the Hershey Central TheaUe. 7 ;-•> At present the Hershey Studio cdritalfis'; a mercury-yapor., light of high actihifc power; a spot=Iight;reflectors, screeris,:etc,- —everything necessary for the making'of; artistic portraits. When the installation1 of the large nitrogen globes is completed, the Studio will be enabled to make por-1 traits at night as well as during the day. ' These lights will greatly simpiify the| making of children's and babies' portraits,! as the exposures will be made at almost snap-shot speed. During the .past few weeks Mr. Spotz,; the photographer, has taken a large num-: ber of most excellent portraits. The Studio is open every day except on Sunday,; and is open evenings by appointment. Are You Getti ng Full Weight A reader of our columns has given us a method to determine whether one has received a ton of coal or whether one has been "stung." The method is as follows: ' "Anthracite coal varies somewhat in weight per cubic foot, depending on the size and slightly on quality. However 32 cu. ft. to 34 cu. ft. to the ton is about the average in ordinary sizes of coal. For all practical purposes 3 per cent, of the numi ber of cubic feet in a bin gives the number of tons of Anthracite coal which a bin will hold; one-half of this is approximately the number of tons of coke; 2 1-2 per cent, of the number of cubic feet gives the num-ber of tons of bituminous coal, which runs about 40 cubic feet to the ton." If someone will send us a method to de-termine slate and dirt that the ton of coal contains, we will be happy But what's worrying us the most, Is how are we going to get the ton in order to try out the method? Won't it be a good old world when we can take up the phone and say, "Mr. Conrad, deliver us I ton pf Lykcna Nut", and have him say, "TJianks for theorder,wewilldellverlt Immediately." Boys Visit Show Members of the class in Agriculture visited (he 7th Annual Farm Products Show in Harrisburg on Wednesday,! They met the Vocational Director, Mr. Engle, at the Court House who took them in charge, In addition to visiting tlie State Show they also had a look into the two houses of the State Legislature and met the new gover-nor, All In all this was quite a' treat for the boys which will prove a valuable leeson in later life, Bake Sale Saturday The Dlakonla Bible Class of, the Holy Trini ty Luth eran Sunday School will hold a bake sale on Saturda y, Februar y 3rd , in the Herehey Market House.
