Fire Fighters Make Fast Time To insure an efficient fire fighting organ-ization at the Hershey Chocolate Com-pany, the fire crews are drilled at regular intervals and under actual conditions. Drills are not held around the conference table, but around the fire plugs, and as a result the crews have produced records that are particularly noteworthy. Con-sequently the firemen are ever ready for any emergency that may arise. The crews are under the direct super-vision of Messrs. A. T. Heilman and E. C Black, and all drills are held with keen eyes for results, and , in brief , are made with watches in hand. Every man is instructed to do one thing, to do that with dispatch and effi-ciently, and when the crew is in action everything moves in clock-like precision and accuracy. . In making a hose connection the crews have reduced the time to 20 seconds, and, furthermore couple on a second section in the short period of 32 seconds. Some speed , and some efficienc y, we would say. The crews are as follows: Zone 1.—Harry Dresclier , foreman; Arthur Heisey, Luther Dresclier , Lester Smith, Samuel Brehm, W.alter Hummel, C. Cinder, Paul Long, Win. Tobias and Wm. Shaub. ' .. . Zone 3— R. W. Lloyd, foreman; Frank Leyba, David Riddle , Dan Mowery, Charles Templing, Mar tin Foreman , Geo. Musser, Mark Swartz , Clarence Shirk , Dan Yost and Noah Sullivan. Zone 5.—Miles Schaeffer , foreman ; John Ensminger, John Rhine , John Rudy, Paul Dundore, Geo. Ludwig. Howard Shellenhamer, Walt er I.eibfried and Sam Farver. Zone 7.—Ed. Harklns, foreman ; M. Slesser , H. Habaker , S. Johnston , P. Gine, Roy Miller, J. A. McGee, B. Roland , B. Lory and A. Espcnshadc. A Wor d To The Wise, Buy Your Coal Now Judging by the past , a suspension of anthracite mining on August 31st seems inevi table. The United Mine Workers assembled in Tri-District Convention lit Scrnnton , are broadcasting their decision to demand nn increase in wages as well as the check-off. The operators will doubt-less demand a reduction in wages and firmly oppose the check-off. Then will come a suspension, during which sume kind of an adjustment will lie readied and mining will he resumed with a bang. This has been (lie usual procedure in the past and will doubtless be repeated ut the ex-piration of the present wage agreement. The onlv possible upse t would he a decision on tile part of the operators to wage a linish light , depending uixm public sentiment to support Ilium in forcing a reduction in wages, a doubtful contingency, however desirable it maybe. The retail trade and the public have become so accustomed to these preliminary gestures of both miners and operators, the suspension , and the ultimate adjustment , that they expect it aspurtol the game. Under th ese eiiviuiisluiicen the Ilershey Dent. St ore Is urging its customers to buy their winter requirements of coal not next week hut NOW. The coal bins arc filled and there is sufficient supply to make prompt delivery. Palmyra Auto Club Has 1600 Members Membership of the Palmyra Auto Club on Monday evening was boosted another i)(.j{—Kev er'nl of th em when li(i.'l appli-cants were elected bringing (he "KKreuate membershi p to a' point well over the 1MX) mark. The officials of the organization now assert It Is the biggest club of the kind In the county and one of the biggest in the sta te. , That there is much enthusiasm In the club wan Indicated by the attendance. The Ir oquolu Theat re, where the meeting was held was crowded to the limits of its seatin g capacity. Routing business was given considera t ion , and reports worn made on various |>iul roads, but owing to the troubles for t ownship supervisors which arose us a result of the terrible Hoods of Saturday and Sunday, nil acti on along these lines wore deferred to give the rond-maleers u chance. "Simon Called Peter Will Make You Sit Up and Take Notice "Simon Called Peter " that comes to the Hershey Park Theatre on Thursday, Fri-day and Saturday of this week is without a doubt one of the best productions that has been presented so far this season by the Sherwood Players. I t is a story of a woman of the world and a minister who are thrown together by the World War. The whole play is devoted to his fight against the world , with this woman, known as Julie, on one side and his church on the other. I t is a pleasing little story told In a human but fra nk way. Julie is bad , but not too bad , we are sure those tha t see her will love her the same as Peter Graham did. Peter is good but not too good, and is a wonderfu l role potrayed in a most pleasing way hy Almmie Dempsey, The sliow is laid in five scenes that carry you from London to France and show you life as it waa there , the joys and the sadness of it. How the boys while Over There put in the spare moments when they were on leave from fighting the Hun , then hack again to London to a Hotel where Peter meets Julie. If you have read the book "Simon Called Peter " there Is nothing to tie said about this scene ap those that had read it know far too well. It is the chapter that made the book and the scene that made the play. Some called it shocking and risque but some broader-minded persons and those that saw It on Broadway called it clever. Well , come and see for yourself, Let those judge who have the ri ght to judge. Miss Sherwood states that nothing will be said or done that would offend those that attend, Miss Sherwood has gone to a great ex-pense, havin g purchased special scenery, li ghting effects and costumes for the play. You will be given an exact production ju st as it was played in New York a few months agp, The play waa only released for St ock last mouth. There is an air attack in the third scene that will give all those who attend a real thrill and a climax that will make a grea t many want to see the play the second time. There Is not a poor part In the entire hill , every member of the company having excellent roles. The part of Julie will he played by Miss Kntherine M. Bauer, and will be one of her feature parts for the season at Hershey. Peter Graham played by Mr. Dempscy is a wonderful part. He has been studying the part for the past three weeks and he will give masterly characterization of this role. The comedy of the piece will be carried by Ralph Crabtree and Eddie Watrous, in the roles of Lieut. Jenks and Capt. Mac- Kaye. The characters of Lieut. Donovan played hy Richard Footc and Major Uingdon played by Wayne Nunn are splendid parts and the way they will be enacted will bring out the capabilities of t hese two artists. The woman |iarts of the play are carried by Miss Nina Howell as Madeline and Tommy Maynard played by Miss Sher-wood. There will also he several new faces in the cast. The part of Hilda Leasing will be played by Miss Angenette Billotta and that of Louise Is taken hy Miss Esther Magrini , both residents of your fair Her-shey.

Slinks through the thickening night with his booty, a heart's wild beating. Wonder how many pens, editorial and otherwise, stopped on their way to the inkwell , at the news of Bryan s death. Wonder how many people, who have lately made a good living saying mean things about the Great Commoner, paused in the midst of writing a criticism of him , tore up a half-finished article, and started out in their best and kindest vein to eulo- The Flitting Pat had just arrived in New York City and was spending the night with his old Pal John. (Did you think we were going to say Mike?) They went to bed , and to sleep. Pretty soon Pat was awakened by a hulabaloo in the street below. Firetrucks were speed-in g to the scene of a fire. Pat looked out the window. Then he roused Mike. (Beg pardon , roused John). "Say Mike," (beg pardon , say John said Pat , git up quick. Begorra b, if yez want to see it , yez had better hurry. They 're movin Hell , and two carloads av 'em have gone by already. " Fable Once ii|xin a time two young people, as young people often do, got married. Every-one said it was a perfect match. The young couple had never quarreled in the courting days, and everyone said they had a fine chance of living the first year of married life without a cross word having passed between them. Now, as you know if you pull a tooth and don 't put your tongue in the void where the tooth just was, a gold tooth will grow there . Well , ri ght along this line is this one: If two married folks live together a whole year , and in that time do not ex-change cross words, on their first wedding anniversar y, then Good Fairy will appear and grant any wish they express. John was a bank clerk , well thought of hy his employers. Mary was an ideal housekeeper. The couple, really they did , lived a whole year together and not a cross word passed between them , and so they were in line for the Grand Prize. The Wedding Anniversary was a da"y Mary and John will never forget. It was pay<lay at the bank , and John came home to supper , tired and hun gry. Also his nerves were a bit edgy. Just as he got home, Mary drove in wi th the roadster. The Evil hair y had coaxed her out to play bridge , and durin g the nfterii<x >ii , dain ty refreshments had been served. "I guess I'll just set on a bite ," said Mar y. So she just set on a bite , never thinking how tired and hungry poor John was, and how edgy were his nerves. During the meal , the Gcxxl Fairy was seen to rise slowing from the sugar bowl and , addr essing Mary and John , to say. "You young people , havin g lived to-gether one full year without a cross word having passed between you , are each en-ti tled to one wish. Now think well , and remember you have only one wish apiece." John didn 't think well. He didn 't think at all , "I wish ", wil d John , "we had sausages for supper, " As if hy magic the sausages appeared. Ima gine that of all wishes, No wonder Mary was mad. She thought how many nice things John might have wished for , a million dollars , a beautiful home, a yacht , a Rolls Rough , and she got mad all over . "I wish to gcxxluess, John", she cried , "you had a sausage right on the end of your nose, so th ere, " And th en she flounced out of (hi! room and had a gixid cry. But what of John? Ah if by magic a sausage had appeared on the end of John 's nose, dangling teaslngly th ere. Imagine that. You 41111't , You can bet your sweel life when Mary and John saw what they had done they were sorry. Their first thou ght was to go to a surgeon and have the sausage amputated. But as fast as it was cut off , It grew back on, Mary and John were frantic over their misfortune , hut , being ixx>r , there was only one thin g for John to do, He (Continued on Page 4) gize the man they had just been assailing Beats all what a diff erence just a few hours make. We'll wager that even Clarence Darrow, who professes not to believe in after-life , finds it hard to believe that the soul of the man, who so lately opposed him in one of the greatest farces in American Hi story, is dead . I t always amuses us to think with what haste a man's tortures hock the branding irons from the fire when news of his deal li reaches them. We like to think what trouble it causes newspapers that have a nice roast all ready to give some public character , when they learn of that public character 's death. Well anyway Bryan died like a gcxxl Democrat , in the thick of the fi ght. Well , remarked the Man Who Knows About Everything, "The lamps were lighted at five o'clock Monday evening You know the saying is, When the nights begin to lengthen , The cold logins to strengthen. " "It doesn't seem as though winter will six in have us in his grip, 1. e., his traveling bag, does it? " At this writing, as the item writers are fond of saying, (he most popular quest Ion is not , "Is it hot enough for you?" The chronie query now is, "Is it wet enough for you?" Yes, we are gelling lots of Al Smith's favorite brand of weather , wet. "What in the world are all these papers oiled on my desk?" the Man Who Was Married Ibis June wauled to know. "Why those are hills?" his by this time Bitter-Half inf ormed him. "Well If th ose are bills , " th e Man Who Was Married this June protested , "What in the name of Gertie 's Garter am I doing with them. 1 believe In rendering unto Caesar the thin gs that are Caesar's. If those are bills, give 'em to Bill. What am I doing with them?" Man the Life Boats Once In our rainbow colored past we went to a dance In Whal 's-hls-nanies' Hall. We were sil ling along the "side lines" watchin g, when In sta ggered two sailors ha ppy drunk. "Shay, Jack ," said one, "didn 't you tell me you wash In the Navy. " "Sure," said the other , "I was on the U. S. S, Nevada , Slmy, bo. I had some checkered career, I did. When I wash in the war, I wash sunk-hlc-seven times." Gladys Christ and Earl Walmer Wedded A very pretty wedding was solemnized on Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock at ,136 Caracas Avenue, when Miss Gladys E. Christ, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry S. Christ, became the bride of I. Earl Walmer, son of A. J. Walmer, of 724 Guilford street , Lebanon . The ceremony was performed by the Rev. R. R. Butterwick , of Annville, formerl y pastor of the First United Breth-ren Church, of Hershey, and they were attended by Mr. and Mrs. Howard Silikl. Only members of the immediate families and close friends of the contracting parties present, After the ceremony the young couple left on a hoiieym<xin trip hy automobile to Philadelphia , Atlantic City and other points of interest in the East. Mrs. Walmer is a graduate of Hershey High ScIkkiI , class of 1924, and occupied a position in the Traffic Department of the Hershey Chocolate Company for the past year. The groom is a native of Lebanon and has been employed by the Ch(x:olale Company in the same department for a number of years. Both Mr, and Mrs. Walmer are well known in I lershey and their many friends join in wishing them every happiness. U|X)ii their return to Hershey, they will make their home for the present with the paren ts of the bride.

Creatore and His Band Captivate Music Lovers at Hersh ey Park Creatore] and his band gave four concerts Saturday and Sunday at the Hershey Park Convention Hall that attracted large audiences. His skill as a band master and his ability to transfer his own musical enthusiasms to his players produces a spirited kind of rhythm that is always pleasing. The programs consisted of classical and popular music, some of the encores even had a touch of the American jazz in them— played by Creatore, however. As for the classical numbers, many of them were old favorites like the Sextet from "Lucia," the overture, "Poet and Peasant," "William Tell," selections from "II Trovatore," Victor Herbert, etc. Creatore's "Hits of 1925", a fantasy on some of the popular airs of the day includ-ing "Indian Love Song, 'I Wonder What's Become of Sally' " and others, put every-body into a good humor on Sunday after-noon. Hi's "Irish Caprice" with which the concert closed Sunday evening put an extra heart throb of loyalty into every wearer of the green, and every one of the five numbers which comprises the "Ca-price," from "St. Patrick's Day," to 'The Harp That Once Thro' Tara's Halls," was received most enthusiastically. There was one musical hit on Sunday evening, rendered in faultless style, ending a climax of melody that entranced the audience, judging by the continued1 ap-plause. During the rendition Creatore was all over the stage bringing out the required shading and he succeeded to a marked degree. The selection referred to was Tschaikowsky's "Overture of 1812," telling in music of the invasion of the French, first their victories and then then-defeat, beginning with the burning of Moscow. Here and there the French national air came in with triumph, soon to be followed with the sonorous Russian national hymn given as a song of thanks-giving. The musicians and the audience felt what was being told in melody. At the close of this selection the magnetic leader had to come to the front of the stage several times and bow his acknowledg-ments. In Saturday night's program the most applauded numbers were the "Gems of- Victor Herbert," which brought back the old favorite, "My Little Gypsy Sweet-heart ;" Rossini's overture, "William Tell," and excerpts, arranged by Creatore, from Bizet 's opera, "Carmen." Works.of more than a dozen composers were given and during the entire engage-ment Creatore never used a single score, and this is all the more remarkable when it is remembered that some of the greatest musical compositions were presented. He and his band were liberal with en-cores, one being given after nearly every number. These encores were usually light and dainty in strong contrast to the work that had just been given. The vocal selections by Miss Pauline Talma were a feature of the concerts. Miss Talma's voice was pleasing and its range is remarkable. Her voice carried easily to every part of the large hall, and she was applauded heartily. She sang "Saran Rose," by Arditti; "Aria " from "La Traviata," by Verdi; "A Kiss in the Dark," Herbert , and "Aria" from "II Trovatore", by Verdi. Her encores, and she was prevailed upon to give two and sometimes three, were popular. In the "Gems of Victor Herbert " her chorus, "Kiss Me Again," was applauded to the extent that the band was unheard ; for a moment or two, It was Miss Talma's first appearance here but she completely won her audience. Dair ymen From Six Counties To Hold Field Day Dair ymen from six central Pennsylvania counties will be represented in the inter-county field day, which will be held at Boiling Springs on Thursday, August 6th , at the Dairy farm of I.

An extensive program has been ar-ranged by the B|x>rts committee, a feature of which will bo the baseball game in the afternoon between teams of married and single men. On Sunday at the morning services the members and friends of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church will celebrate the Fifteenth Anniversary of the organization of the congregation. The Anniversary sermon will be delivered by the pastor. Rev. Paul M. Kinports, on the subject of "Attainment and Progress." The actual history of Holy Trinity congregation, begins in the organization of the Bible School in the P. O. S. of A. Hall, in the Park on Sunday afternoon, February 7, 1909. The sessions were continued hei^e under the general direction of a committee composed of Rev. H. K. Lantz, formally pastor of the Lutheran Church of Shirmanstown and now pastor of St. James Church, Reading, Pa.; Hon. G. H. Mover, of Lebanon, and Mr. Nathaniel Light, of Annville, appointed by the Lancaster Conference of the Evan-gelical Lutheran Ministerium of Pennsyl-vania. Beginning July 11, 1909 occasional preaching services were held in the P. O. S. of A. Hall. The congregation was organized on August 7, 1910, by the Rev. C. K. Fegley, who served as Field Missionary for about nine months at Palmyra and this place. After the organization the congregation was united in a charge with Palm congre-gation at Palmyra and then received into the Ministerium of Pennsylvania. On February 27, 1911, Rev. Frederick C. Krapf began his work as the first pastor of the congregation, and a charter was granted the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Holy Trinity on April 15, 1912. On April 30, 1911, the congregation decided to build a church and with the promised help of the Church Extension Society and a lot contributed by Mr. M. S. Hershey, a title was taken for the site at the corner of Cocoa and Granada Avenues. Ground was broken .for the building on Trinity Sunday, May 19, 1913, and the ¦cornerstone of the church was laid on September 21, 1913. On August 2, 1914 the church edifice was dedicated to the services of Almighty God with appropriate services. During the 15 years of the church's history the congregation has grown from a membership of 12 to the present enroll-ment of 282 members. In this time the value of the church property has increased by the purchase of a fine pipe organ and in the recent month the purchase of a new parsonage on the corner opposite the church. With many gifts from the mem-bers of the congregation and friends the interior of the church has been beautified and the congregation values its present property at $30,000.00. During the 15 years the congregation was served by six pastors: Rev. F. C. Krapf , 1911 to 1915; Rev. John I. Meek, 1915 to 1918; Rev. S. S. Garnss, 1918; Rev. B. C. Ritz , 1919 to 1920; Rev. M. LeRoy Wuchter, 1921 to 1924, and Rev. Paul M. Kinports, the present pastor. Many were the sacrifices made and much earnest toil given by those who have rendered their services as pastors and members that the aim of a greater Lutheran Church in Hershey might be achieved and that the church might be of great benefit to the community in which she labors and for the extension of God's Kingdom. With the past history and attainments the congregation . is looking forward to greater things in the future. Trinity Lutheran Sunday School To Celebrate 15th Anniversar y LOUISE BAER, SOPRANO

Fire Fighters
Make Fast Time
To insure an efficient fire fighting organ-ization
at the Hershey Chocolate Com-pany,
the fire crews are drilled at regular
intervals and under actual conditions.
Drills are not held around the conference
table, but around the fire plugs, and as a
result the crews have produced records
that are particularly noteworthy. Con-sequently
the firemen are ever ready for
any emergency that may arise.
The crews are under the direct super-vision
of Messrs. A. T. Heilman and E. C
Black, and all drills are held with keen
eyes for results, and , in brief , are made
with watches in hand.
Every man is instructed to do one
thing, to do that with dispatch and effi-ciently,
and when the crew is in action
everything moves in clock-like precision
and accuracy.
. In making a hose connection the crews
have reduced the time to 20 seconds, and,
furthermore couple on a second section in
the short period of 32 seconds. Some
speed , and some efficienc y, we would say.
The crews are as follows:
Zone 1.—Harry Dresclier , foreman;
Arthur Heisey, Luther Dresclier , Lester
Smith, Samuel Brehm, W.alter Hummel,
C. Cinder, Paul Long, Win. Tobias and
Wm. Shaub. ' .. .
Zone 3— R. W. Lloyd, foreman; Frank
Leyba, David Riddle , Dan Mowery,
Charles Templing, Mar tin Foreman , Geo.
Musser, Mark Swartz , Clarence Shirk ,
Dan Yost and Noah Sullivan.
Zone 5.—Miles Schaeffer , foreman ;
John Ensminger, John Rhine , John Rudy,
Paul Dundore, Geo. Ludwig. Howard
Shellenhamer, Walt er I.eibfried and Sam
Farver.
Zone 7.—Ed. Harklns, foreman ; M.
Slesser , H. Habaker , S. Johnston , P. Gine,
Roy Miller, J. A. McGee, B. Roland , B.
Lory and A. Espcnshadc.
A Wor d To The Wise,
Buy Your Coal Now
Judging by the past , a suspension of
anthracite mining on August 31st seems
inevi table. The United Mine Workers
assembled in Tri-District Convention lit
Scrnnton , are broadcasting their decision
to demand nn increase in wages as well as
the check-off. The operators will doubt-less
demand a reduction in wages and
firmly oppose the check-off. Then will
come a suspension, during which sume
kind of an adjustment will lie readied and
mining will he resumed with a bang. This
has been (lie usual procedure in the past
and will doubtless be repeated ut the ex-piration
of the present wage agreement.
The onlv possible upse t would he a
decision on tile part of the operators to
wage a linish light , depending uixm public
sentiment to support Ilium in forcing a
reduction in wages, a doubtful contingency,
however desirable it maybe.
The retail trade and the public have
become so accustomed to these preliminary
gestures of both miners and operators, the
suspension , and the ultimate adjustment ,
that they expect it aspurtol the game.
Under th ese eiiviuiisluiicen the Ilershey
Dent. St ore Is urging its customers to buy
their winter requirements of coal not
next week hut NOW. The coal bins arc
filled and there is sufficient supply to make
prompt delivery.

"Simon Called Peter Will Make
You Sit Up and Take Notice
"Simon Called Peter " that comes to the
Hershey Park Theatre on Thursday, Fri-day
and Saturday of this week is without a
doubt one of the best productions that has
been presented so far this season by the
Sherwood Players.
I t is a story of a woman of the world and
a minister who are thrown together by the
World War. The whole play is devoted to
his fight against the world , with this
woman, known as Julie, on one side and
his church on the other.
I t is a pleasing little story told In a
human but fra nk way. Julie is bad , but
not too bad , we are sure those tha t see her
will love her the same as Peter Graham did.
Peter is good but not too good, and is a
wonderfu l role potrayed in a most pleasing
way hy Almmie Dempsey,
The sliow is laid in five scenes that carry
you from London to France and show you
life as it waa there , the joys and the sadness
of it. How the boys while Over There put
in the spare moments when they were on
leave from fighting the Hun , then hack
again to London to a Hotel where Peter
meets Julie. If you have read the book
"Simon Called Peter " there Is nothing to
tie said about this scene ap those that had
read it know far too well. It is the chapter
that made the book and the scene that
made the play. Some called it shocking
and risque but some broader-minded
persons and those that saw It on Broadway
called it clever. Well , come and see for
yourself, Let those judge who have the
ri ght to judge. Miss Sherwood states that
nothing will be said or done that would
offend those that attend,
Miss Sherwood has gone to a great ex-pense,
havin g purchased special scenery,
li ghting effects and costumes for the play.
You will be given an exact production ju st
as it was played in New York a few months
agp, The play waa only released for
St ock last mouth.
There is an air attack in the third scene
that will give all those who attend a real
thrill and a climax that will make a grea t
many want to see the play the second time.
There Is not a poor part In the entire hill ,
every member of the company having
excellent roles.
The part of Julie will he played by Miss
Kntherine M. Bauer, and will be one of her
feature parts for the season at Hershey.
Peter Graham played by Mr. Dempscy
is a wonderful part. He has been studying
the part for the past three weeks and he
will give masterly characterization of this
role.
The comedy of the piece will be carried
by Ralph Crabtree and Eddie Watrous, in
the roles of Lieut. Jenks and Capt. Mac-
Kaye.
The characters of Lieut. Donovan played
hy Richard Footc and Major Uingdon
played by Wayne Nunn are splendid parts
and the way they will be enacted will
bring out the capabilities of t hese two
artists.
The woman |iarts of the play are carried
by Miss Nina Howell as Madeline and
Tommy Maynard played by Miss Sher-wood.
There will also he several new faces in
the cast. The part of Hilda Leasing will
be played by Miss Angenette Billotta and
that of Louise Is taken hy Miss Esther
Magrini , both residents of your fair Her-shey.
