"Springtime" Was Creditabl y Presented On Monday and Tuesday evenings of this week the Hershey Public Schools presented "Springtime", a three-act musi-cal comedy, at the Hershey Park Theatre, before large and appreciative audiences. This musical play was a treat for the eye, the music was tuneful, the lines "were clever, and every one of the principals enacted their roles most creditably. Fur-thermore, the choruses and ensembles were splendid. When one takes into consideration that rehearsals for this pro-duction were begun only ten days ago, the results are truly wonderful, and all those taking part in it, are most worthy of heaps and heaps of praise. Miss Gregg Darrow was the outstanding "star" of the play. She has an excellent stage presence, and her voice is most pleasing. Her number in the second act, My Garden of Memories" went over big at both performances. Lucille Gilman and Mildred Hocker had outstanding parts, and they were charm-ing, very charming indeed. Miss Jessie Dersheimer had the female comedy part, and she sure made her part stand out, and the way she handled her poor husband was a shame. The other principals, Josephine Ceiling, Calista Diller, Florence Dersheimer, Cath-erine Leithiser, Kathryn Erford, did ample justice to their roles. Edward Shea's work as Bobby Brews-ter" was a revelation to us Hersheyites. That he has real ability none will deny. His work in all ttiree acts was highly commendable. Wm. Leithiser, otherwise known as "Spark Plug", with his faithful spouse, "Tood" appeared in the grand finale as lightning out of a clear sky, and they made the audience sit up and take notice. And no wonder. Their appearance, and their actions were such that would make the most anemiac take a new lease on life. They would go big on the Keith circuit, we have no doubt Alex Magrini enacted his role well, but we were somewhat disappointed neverthe-less. Alex, has a splendid voice, but he seems to lack confidence, in fact, seems afraid to let himself out. The other members of the cast were George Hocker, Earle Hackman, Paul Belser and Roy Dundore, and they altho, they did oot have much to do, excepting Mr. Hocker, did splendidly. Three Big Dances at Hershey Fair The dances that will be given by the Hershey firemen at their Fair that will be held in the Hershey Winter Dance Hall on Saeurday "evening, October'" 20th"and continuing until the 27th, are going to be big attractions. ". . ¦„ ¦ . '¦ On the opening night Drescher's 8-piece orchestra will furnish the music. This organization of dance^compellers has a style of its own that is positively irresist-ible. One is carried out to the dance floor by the persuasiveness of the instrumenta-tion. This orchestra played for the Tall Cedars recently and they made a sensa-tional hit. ^ , On Wednesday evening, October 24th, will be the Masquerade Dance, and the Masqueraders of Reading will furnish the music, and they will romp through "Toot, Toot, Tootsie" and "The Duck's Quack" as you never heard fox trots played before. There will be prizes for the prettiest lady's costume, and the handsomest man's cos-tume, also the most comical, man and girl. On Saturday evening, October 27th, the Closing night of the Fair, the University Club Orchestra, of Harrisburg, will be the dance-compelling hypnotists and they will make you shake a wicked hoof, whether or no. You will dance to the music of these eyncopaters until the cuckoo sings its 12th lay, and you will think he has put one over on you.

Sistine Chapel Choir at Hershey Convention Hall Sunday, Oct. 21 Notwithstanding that Europe has for many years sent us a succession of wonderful vocal and instrumental artists, it has never been possible heretofore to induce the famous Sistine Chapel Choir of-the Vatican, to come to America. This organization derives its name from the Sistine Chapel at Rome, where its unrivaled singing and the wonderful frescoes of Michael Angelo draw a never-ending stream of great painters, musicians and art patrons from all corners of the world. This Choir enjoys the exclusive privilege of appearing at all functions at which the Pope appears Backed by the fin ancial pledges and personal influence of prominent patrons of musical art, the principal cities of the United States will hear these famous singers during a ten week's concert tour which will open in New York City, October 16th and bring them to Hershey on Sunday afternoon , October 21 st, where they will appear in the Hershey Conven-tion Hall at 2.00 o'clock. During the last century many futile attempts have been made to bring the " Pope's Choir ", as the Sistine Chapel Choir is known, to America and many obstacles had to be surmounted. To make the tour possible it was necessary to obtain the consent of the reigning Pontiff, Pius XI, and Monsignor Antonio Rella, the Director of the organization. The Sistine Chapel Choir is in the Fifth Century of its existence and comprises fifty-four members, sixteen of which are tenors, ten bassos, four male sopranos, four male altos, and twenty boy sopranos, all of whom have enjoyed the tuition of the great Perosi and his equally illus-trious associate, Monsignor Antonio Rella. Lack of feminine voices is made up for by the boys of the Sistine Choir, who are selected from all over Italy and educated and trained by Monsignor Rella, in a special school situated within the shadow of the Vatican and endowed by Pius X. Admission to the Sistine Chapel Choir is an eagerly-sought honor. Every applicant must be a perfectly schooled musician with a voice thoroughly capable of achieving distinction as a soloist and acceptable to the entire memberships The vocal methods of this famous body of singers have never been adequately explained, as their manner of decreasing and in-creasing tone and their fusion of voices conveys wonder even to minds versed in all the delicate subtleties of the art of song. No other institution of any time rivals the Sistine Chapel Choir either in regard to ancient and glorious tradition or in contributing to the evolution of choral art. So perfect is the music and so harmonious the voices that no instrumental accompaniment is required. Unusually impressive programs of the greatest interest to musicians and the artistic world in general will be given on this tour, and will include unedited,masterpieces of composers Perosi and others heretofore confined exclusively to the Sistine Chapel. Included in the repertoire to be sung in America are two sublime numbers, i. e., "Gloria, Laus et Honor ", and Allegri's "Miserere". The former classic, in addition to its touching sentiment and harmoni-ous beauty has a most interesting history, for it is said to have been com-posed by Abbot Theodulf, when in prison at Angers, for a conspiracy against the Emperor Louis, " the Pious ", and sung by him in a moving strain as the Emperor, in procession, on Palm Sunday, passed under the prison wall. The words and music touched the offended monarch's heart and procured the composer's libera tion. This is said to have taken place about the year 818; and even if the legend be inaccurate, it proves the character and power which the public voice attribu ted to the composi-tion. Be that as it may the "Glori a laus et honor " is ever a welcome number and as rendered by the incomparable Choir, carries a message ol exquisite tenderness and true dramatic power in its noblest sense. As for the latter, when the Sistine Chapel Choir sings the Miserere the swell of almost celestial melody intoning in one vibrant human cord the grief of mul titude, fills one's heart with a world of tenderness and sorrowand uplifts the soul to a higher realm of purity and grace. The last refinement of vocal culture is met with in this incomparable rendition, and though in it the depths of sorrow and desolation are fully sounded, the sublimity of exquisite harmony attained makes the Miserere a thing of such transcedent sweetness and beauty that its very memory becomes a haunting spirit throughout one's life. Of modern liturgical music, the Choir gives several compositions by Perosi including his Requiem for four, six and eight voices sung on the occasion of the requiem for the late Pope Pius X in the Sistine Chapel, by the Sistine Chapel Choir and,of course, under Monsignor Ralla's direction. One of the sensations of the programs is the singing of Perosi's "Alleluia " for two choirs. The second choir, of first and second tenors, and first and second basses, singing from the end of the hall and is con-ducted by the sub-conductor*. As an example of antiphonal singing, it is perfection itself. The final answers of the second choir on the word "Alleluia " are given in the most exquisite pianissimo chord ever uttered by humans., The composition itself is of remarkable ingenuity. It is most difficul t and complicated and offers a splendid example of the superb musicianship of the choir and the skill of its conductors. Naturally American music lovers will expect a complete choral technique from the Sistine Chapel Choir, but what will delight them most is the value the choir places upon nuance and from which endless charms seem to arise—now soft , now fiery or massive, or incomparably tender ; a flood of golden warmth in joyous outburst, but, finest of all, the lightest pulse-beats of living accent. Those who are familiar with the almost forgotten subtleties of the art of song never fail to register wonder and deligh t upon hearing the Sistine Choir. As far back as the days of Mozart and Mendelssohn all of the grea t musicians visited the Sistine Chapel for inspira tion. Mendelssohn is quoted as saying " Under the spell of such music one is filled with amaze-ment- and delight. I w,as deeply moved by tfhe wonderful pianissimo singing and the concentration of every individual singer. " Mozart was moved to express himself as follows: "Who cannot fail to express admira-tion on hearing the singing of the Sistine Choir f" Whether you are musical or not you cannot go wrong in hearing the concert of the,Sistine Chapel Choir at Hershey Convention Hall on Sun-day afternoon , October aist , at a.oo o'clock. The appeal of the Choir is universal and to everybody. The voices are the very best to be had in the entire world and their singing is a revelation of concerted vocal achieve-ment.' Their visit here will not only be an education to our music lovers, but at the same time an education to most of our choir directors and singers. Everything that the Choir sings is heavenly. The balance of tone, the even and perfect blend in all registers, the attacks and releases, and their ensembles are beyond criticism. Their Latin enunciation is distinct in each vowel and consonant. One feels that every member sings with feeling and precision. To accommodate the many who will come from outside towns the P. & R. R. will run excursion trains At special rates from Bethlehem, Allen town, Reading, Lebanon, Harrisburg, Lykcrys and intermediate points. Reservations for the concert in the Hershey Convention Hall on Sun-day .afternoon , Oct. aist, at a.oo o'clock, will be made in advance for those desiring seats. Orders for such will receive prompt attention and filled in order of their receipt, by addressing wi th remittance J. B. Sollenberger, cafe Hershey Trust Co., Hershey, Pa. Prices, $1.10, $ 1.65 and $2.20 including tax. Y.W. Extends Time for Class Registration At a meeting of the Educational Committee of the Y. W. C. A.

See Jack Holt Saturda y Jack Holt has been proclaimed the most versatile star in motion pictures. Not only has such an honor been accorded Mr. Holt, but he has won it honestly. In his latest six pictures, the Paramount star has played what is believed to be the widest variation of characters ever enacted by one screen actor. In "The Call of the North," Holt was a fur trapper. In "North of the Rio Grande, he was a cowboy. For "While Satan Sleeps." assumed the role of a re-formed crook who became a minister. His character in "On the High Seas" was that of a steamship stoker. To top these off , Mr. Holt is now starring in a famous stage success, "Nobody's Money," which Paramount has adapted to the screen from William LeBaron's play, and which comes to the Herahey Central Theatre on Saturday evening, October 13th. In this picture, Holt is a debonair young book agent , a role entirely different from anything he has enacted before. It is through these six characterizations, no two of which are In any way the same, that Mr. Holt has won recognition as the most versatile screen star.

Sistine Chapel Choir at Hershey Convention Hall Sunday, Oct. 21 Notwithstanding that Europe has for many years sent us a succession of wonderful vocal and instrumental artists, it has never been possible heretofore to induce the famous Sistine Chapel Choir of-the Vatican, to come to America. This organization derives its name from the Sistine Chapel at Rome, where its unrivaled singing and the wonderful frescoes of Michael Angelo draw a never-ending stream of great painters, musicians and art patrons from all corners of the world. This Choir enjoys the exclusive privilege of appearing at all functions at which the Pope appears Backed by the fin ancial pledges and personal influence of prominent patrons of musical art, the principal cities of the United States will hear these famous singers during a ten week's concert tour which will open in New York City, October 16th and bring them to Hershey on Sunday afternoon , October 21 st, where they will appear in the Hershey Conven-tion Hall at 2.00 o'clock. During the last century many futile attempts have been made to bring the " Pope's Choir ", as the Sistine Chapel Choir is known, to America and many obstacles had to be surmounted. To make the tour possible it was necessary to obtain the consent of the reigning Pontiff, Pius XI, and Monsignor Antonio Rella, the Director of the organization. The Sistine Chapel Choir is in the Fifth Century of its existence and comprises fifty-four members, sixteen of which are tenors, ten bassos, four male sopranos, four male altos, and twenty boy sopranos, all of whom have enjoyed the tuition of the great Perosi and his equally illus-trious associate, Monsignor Antonio Rella. Lack of feminine voices is made up for by the boys of the Sistine Choir, who are selected from all over Italy and educated and trained by Monsignor Rella, in a special school situated within the shadow of the Vatican and endowed by Pius X. Admission to the Sistine Chapel Choir is an eagerly-sought honor. Every applicant must be a perfectly schooled musician with a voice thoroughly capable of achieving distinction as a soloist and acceptable to the entire memberships The vocal methods of this famous body of singers have never been adequately explained, as their manner of decreasing and in-creasing tone and their fusion of voices conveys wonder even to minds versed in all the delicate subtleties of the art of song. No other institution of any time rivals the Sistine Chapel Choir either in regard to ancient and glorious tradition or in contributing to the evolution of choral art. So perfect is the music and so harmonious the voices that no instrumental accompaniment is required. Unusually impressive programs of the greatest interest to musicians and the artistic world in general will be given on this tour, and will include unedited,masterpieces of composers Perosi and others heretofore confined exclusively to the Sistine Chapel. Included in the repertoire to be sung in America are two sublime numbers, i. e., "Gloria, Laus et Honor ", and Allegri's "Miserere". The former classic, in addition to its touching sentiment and harmoni-ous beauty has a most interesting history, for it is said to have been com-posed by Abbot Theodulf, when in prison at Angers, for a conspiracy against the Emperor Louis, " the Pious ", and sung by him in a moving strain as the Emperor, in procession, on Palm Sunday, passed under the prison wall. The words and music touched the offended monarch's heart and procured the composer's libera tion. This is said to have taken place about the year 818; and even if the legend be inaccurate, it proves the character and power which the public voice attribu ted to the composi-tion. Be that as it may the "Glori a laus et honor " is ever a welcome number and as rendered by the incomparable Choir, carries a message ol exquisite tenderness and true dramatic power in its noblest sense. As for the latter, when the Sistine Chapel Choir sings the Miserere the swell of almost celestial melody intoning in one vibrant human cord the grief of mul titude, fills one's heart with a world of tenderness and sorrowand uplifts the soul to a higher realm of purity and grace. The last refinement of vocal culture is met with in this incomparable rendition, and though in it the depths of sorrow and desolation are fully sounded, the sublimity of exquisite harmony attained makes the Miserere a thing of such transcedent sweetness and beauty that its very memory becomes a haunting spirit throughout one's life. Of modern liturgical music, the Choir gives several compositions by Perosi including his Requiem for four, six and eight voices sung on the occasion of the requiem for the late Pope Pius X in the Sistine Chapel, by the Sistine Chapel Choir and,of course, under Monsignor Ralla's direction. One of the sensations of the programs is the singing of Perosi's "Alleluia " for two choirs. The second choir, of first and second tenors, and first and second basses, singing from the end of the hall and is con-ducted by the sub-conductor*. As an example of antiphonal singing, it is perfection itself. The final answers of the second choir on the word "Alleluia " are given in the most exquisite pianissimo chord ever uttered by humans., The composition itself is of remarkable ingenuity. It is most difficul t and complicated and offers a splendid example of the superb musicianship of the choir and the skill of its conductors. Naturally American music lovers will expect a complete choral technique from the Sistine Chapel Choir, but what will delight them most is the value the choir places upon nuance and from which endless charms seem to arise—now soft , now fiery or massive, or incomparably tender ; a flood of golden warmth in joyous outburst, but, finest of all, the lightest pulse-beats of living accent. Those who are familiar with the almost forgotten subtleties of the art of song never fail to register wonder and deligh t upon hearing the Sistine Choir. As far back as the days of Mozart and Mendelssohn all of the grea t musicians visited the Sistine Chapel for inspira tion. Mendelssohn is quoted as saying " Under the spell of such music one is filled with amaze-ment- and delight. I w,as deeply moved by tfhe wonderful pianissimo singing and the concentration of every individual singer. " Mozart was moved to express himself as follows: "Who cannot fail to express admira-tion on hearing the singing of the Sistine Choir f" Whether you are musical or not you cannot go wrong in hearing the concert of the,Sistine Chapel Choir at Hershey Convention Hall on Sun-day afternoon , October aist , at a.oo o'clock. The appeal of the Choir is universal and to everybody. The voices are the very best to be had in the entire world and their singing is a revelation of concerted vocal achieve-ment.' Their visit here will not only be an education to our music lovers, but at the same time an education to most of our choir directors and singers. Everything that the Choir sings is heavenly. The balance of tone, the even and perfect blend in all registers, the attacks and releases, and their ensembles are beyond criticism. Their Latin enunciation is distinct in each vowel and consonant. One feels that every member sings with feeling and precision. To accommodate the many who will come from outside towns the P. & R. R. will run excursion trains At special rates from Bethlehem, Allen town, Reading, Lebanon, Harrisburg, Lykcrys and intermediate points. Reservations for the concert in the Hershey Convention Hall on Sun-day .afternoon , Oct. aist, at a.oo o'clock, will be made in advance for those desiring seats. Orders for such will receive prompt attention and filled in order of their receipt, by addressing wi th remittance J. B. Sollenberger, cafe Hershey Trust Co., Hershey, Pa.

In "The Call of the North," Holt was a fur trapper. In "North of the Rio Grande, he was a cowboy. For "While Satan Sleeps." assumed the role of a re-formed crook who became a minister.
