Had Who's Who
There is a rumor going the rounds that
Hershey is to have a new order, the Klu
Klnx Klan. We overheard a lady remark'
that it would be a splendid thing for Her-shey
if it would have a KIutMux Klan, as
it would do lots of good. "\$e don't quite
get her view-point,- but that may be be-cause
we are'prejudiced, or, perhaps be-cause
we really don't know; much about
the Klan. As it is, however, some of these
fine nights we are liable to^ee a fiery, cross
up on the summit of Hershey Park, and
also see a few night shirts running around.
So froni now on we had better watch out,
or else the Klu Klux Klan will get us if we
don't watch out.

John Rettinger is not only the champion
rabbit hunter of the Hershey Transit Com-pany's
carbarn employees, but he is also a
crackshot when it comes to bringing down
wild turkeys. However, this year he
wasn't so fortunate. He walked and he
walked, but nary a turkey did he see. He
continued walking until he reached the
Third Mountain, so he set himself down
upon a big stone and ate his lunch. Mr,
Hettinger says the view of Hershey from
where he sat is simply superb, and worth
the walk. But just the same, he wishes
lie had seen a turkey instead.

Armistice Day
Observed
'Hershey Post, No. 386, American Legion
observed the Third Annual Armistice Day
on Sunday afternoon in the Hershey Cen-tral
Theatre. Grover C. Sheckart, who
won two medals overseas, acted as chair-man.
We are glad to state that the meeting
was largely attended. However,. there
were a number of vacant seats that should
have been filled. ' As it was, those who did
attend were the gainers, for it was a most
excellent program.
The first number of which comprised of
several selections by the Hershey Harmony
Broadcasters, under the able leadership of
Ed. Haikins, who played very pleasingly
and with much vim.
After the song "America"/ prayer was
offered by Rev. W„ E. Daugherty, pastor
of the First United Brethren Church.
The Apollo Male Quartette, composed
of Perry Bicksler, first tenor ; Wm. Shert-zer,
second tenor; Levi Swalm, baritone;
Lloyd Swalm, bass; sarig "I'll Take You
Home Again Pal of Mine," and "When
You're Gone I Won't Forget." The per-fect
blinding of the voices of these four
young men is a joy indeed.
Rev. M. LeRoy Wuchter, pastor of the
Trinity Lutheran Church, made the intro-ductory
address. His preliminary re-marks
led up to the signing of the Armistice
and followed the progress of the boys from
home to camp, overseas, the war, and peace.
He graphically depicted the purpose of the
Legion, standing as it does for God and
Country, upholding and defending the
Constitution of the United States; main-taining
Law and Order, fostering and
perpetuating 100 per cent. Americanism;
preserving the memories of the World War
and including an individual sense of obli-gation.
Not only in their own ranks, but
to the Community, to the State and to the
Nation.
As a nation we owe our duty to the
world to combat autocracy of class and
man; to make right the master of might; to
promote peace and good-will on earth; to
safeguard and transmit to posterity the
principles of justice, freedom and democ-racy
and to consecrate each other to mu-tual
helpfulness.
This can be done through education,
with proper emphasis on essentials in the
schools; teaching the foreigner; by lectures;
stressing the proper meaning of our holi-days.
Emphasizing the principles at stake
teaching that our holidays had not been
handed down by our forefathers for sports
alone, but they had a higher and greater
significance, and that they should be ob-served
in true reverence Much can be
accomplished by the proper use of play
grounds, the assistance-of the Boy and Girl
Scouts, Public School athletics, music, art
and good uplifting entertainment.
And also through human service, such as
legal aid, the Red Cross, combating anti-
American tendencies and general helpful-ness,
apd through propaganda, such the
written, spoken, lectures, newspapers and
general publicity.
Prof A. M. Hinkel followed with a short
talk, stating that he had discarded the
speech he had planned to give. He gave a
thought that if it were possible to bring
about, would accomplish much for the
greater development of our young men and
women. Instead of sending our High
School graduates on a sight-seeing trip to
Washington after their schooling was all
but done, how much greater would be the
results if the class was sent as they were
about to enter High School. Prof. Hinkel
closed his talk by graphically depicting his
emotions as he viewed the memorial com-memorating
the sacred memory of the un-known
dead.
After several songs Rev. George Edward
Hawea and Rev, Robert Bagnell, both of
Harrisburg, delivered addresses. Both of
these men are of rare accomplishment and
both gave forceful messages, stating that
the World War was worth while, although
our perspective at present may be faulty,
the future generation will know that it was
not in vain. They forcefully reminded us
that America had shown its hand in mat-terq
pertainlng to the Far East and.it must
also show its hand in matters pertaining to
the Near East. In other words America
must take its rightful place at the head of
the Nations. We have tried to shift our
responsibility only too long—but the
world is calling and we must heed Its call.
There was another selection by the
orchestra, and the singing of "Star Spang-led
Banner" when Rev. R, H. Taylor, pas-tor
o( the Presbyterian Church, gave the
benediction.
Thur sday evening, November 9th , sev-eral
representative s of the Young People 's
Divisions of the Sunda y Schools In District
No, 3 met i\\ Club Room of Y. W. G.A.,
Hershe y, to formulate pinna for o Young

Hershey H. Loses
to Miller sville
In a game replete with many thrilling
plays, and one of the hardest fought con-tests
staged on the local field this year, the
High School team lost to Millersville High
by the score of 26 to 22, Laboring under
the great disadvantage of being out-weighed
by fully 25 pounds to the man, the
Hershey boys displayed unuaual offensive
strength, The sweeping end runs of N.
Long and Robertson during the second
half completely dazzled the Millersville
team, after Hershey had played a rather
mediocre game in the first half, A beauti-fully
placed drop kick by Belser early in
the game also deserves special mention.
The score at the end of the first half was
14-3.

See Valentino In
"Blood and Sand "
The celebrated novel, "Blood and Sand",
by Vicente Blasco Ibanez, author of the
tremendously successful "Four Horsemen
of the Apocalypse," has been picturized by
Paramount and will be shown at the Her-shey
Central Theatre on Friday and Satur-day
of this week, at 7:30 o'clock. Rodolph
Valentino is the star and Lila Lee and Nita
Naldi are featured.
This is an announcement of interest to
book-lovers and those who follow the artis-tic
advance of the photoplay. For "Blood
and Sand," an exotic, colorful story of
Spain, is said to be even more compellingly
interesting than its great predecessor by
the same author.
"Blood and Sand" has another unusual
point of appeal in that it is the first starring
picture of Rodolph Valentino whose rise to
film success has been without precedent. It
is a Fred Niblo production, directed by the
man who made "The Three Musketeeres."
Assurance that the Ibanez novel, has been
correctly interpreted is offered with the
presentation of June Mathis as adaptor.
She wrote the scenario for "The Four
Horesman of the Apocalypse." Mr. Val-entino
is supported in "Blood and Sand"
by Lila Lee and Nita Naldi, and a picked
company of Paramount stock players.
Charles Jones
In a Thriller
Coming to the Hershey Central Theatre
on Tuesday evening, November 21st, at
7:30 o'clock, is a new Fox picture starring
Charles Jones. It is called "West of
Chicago." Supporting Jones is,the viva-cious
winsome Renee Adoree, whose act-ing
in Fox productions of late has'been the
subject of a great deal of very complimen-tary
comment.
According to advance notices, this photo
play is filled with thrills. The action takes
place near the Mexican border. To quote
the producer:
"Startling scenes follow each other in
rapid succession. A powerful sweep.of
dramatic strength carries the mind of the
spectator right along to the end. Romance
is deftly woven in the story, and there are
many touches of comedy."
In previous photoplays Charles Jones'
acting has been particularly noteworthy.
If all the other elements required to make
a good motion picture are on a par with the
work of this star, a night of real entertain-ment
is assured theatregoers.
Adding up the advances news with the
possibilities of the picture, the Hershey
Central Theatre should play to a capacity
audience.
The American Legion of Hummelstown
held the second of a series of card parties on
Monday evening.
Those attending from Hershey were as
follows: Mr. and Mrs. F. B. Snavely, Mrs.
J. R. Kreider, Mrs. T. L. McHeffey, Miss

MOTHERS' CLUB HOLD MONTHLY
MEETING
Dr. Bible Pleased
Lar ge Audience
On Friday evening Dr. George P. Bible
delivered an address, ' 'Life and Opportu-nity",
before a very large audience in the
Hershey Central Theatre.
H. N. Herr introduced Dr. Bible, who
stated that he came to deliver a message of
Hope and Happiness.
Hope is made up of equal parts of
Courage, Will, Work and Faith. Innocu-late
your system with these things and
Hope will hover about you, lead you on,
defend you—make you a Factor in the
work of the world. <
Happiness is nothing more or less than
being well content with your- progress by
seeking better things all the time, being
glad that you are alive, thanking God that
you have a chance, believing that you have
some things that nobody else in all the
world has, and just resolving that you are
going to make this world a marvelous place
to stay in for a while. Happiness produces
health, Health plows up the field of native
ability and makes ready the soil for the
happy harvest.
One qf the important factors of a Suc-cessful
Life, is our thoughts. Feed your
thoughts the right food. Thoughts are
never inherited. Thoughts are individual
and belong wholly to you who create them.
Keep them clean and wholesome. Thoughts
cut and shape your character. Train,
guard them. Fill your mind with thoughts
that inspire, cheer and ennoble.
Don't. Worry. How useless it is—how
foolish. Realize but this and you will very
soon banish it and forever abhor it. Worry
has never rendered anyone a single service.
Worry never did and never will bring any-thing
to pass. It is the most treacherous
of poisons for it not only eats into the finest
powers of your mind, and life but it spreads
and radiates like a contagious disease.
Have a definite purpose—A man with a
definite purpose and the courage to follow
in its path cannot fail. Don't be like the
man who goes to church on a Sunday, with
a purpose of being a good Christian on that
day, and on Monday, Tuesday, Wednes-day,
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, for-gets
all about it. Follow your purpose
consistently and courageously.
One of the most difficult things in this
world to get control of is the human tongue
Before you set your tongue to action get it
under perfect control Don't spent your
time wagging your tongue talking about
the faults of your neighbor—your faults
are as great or greater perhaps than the one
whose character you are besmirching.
Make it a rule of your life to" use your
tongue for high purposes alone. Resolve
to speak in no way of any man or woman
unless you can speak of the good qualities
of that man or woman. No one ever
gained happiness out of injuring the feel-ings
or character of someone else. No one
ever failed to get happiness by speaking
well of other people. ,. _ _
Respect your stomach. The stomach is
the greatest organ ofthe human body, it is
the least respected, it is the most neglected.
Don't throw ill-selected and quickly mas-ticated
food into the greatest engine in the
world. Take care of your stomach and it
will work wonders for you. Dont' eat
meat more than three times a week. Don't
drink coffee—its a drug. Eat vegetables
and fruit aplenty. A good stomach will
build "power for scores of years. It will
sent strength and elasticity into bones and
muscles. It will pumb a great heart, and
it will give an iron will and a masterful
brain.
God never put brains into human heads
for mere fixtures. Brains are just like
continents. They were created to be ex-plored
and used. Search, think, sacrifice,
study, travel and read.
The men with vision are dominant. The
greater you aspire the greater will grow
your vision. Vision is applicable to the
everyday. It puts strength back of effort.
Grasp your chances as they come. The
large tasks of the world lie hidden under-neath
the smallest chances sought for with
calm patience and cool courage. If past
chances appear neglected, passed by, or
not seen, the future chances streak toward
you from in front , be ready. Seek them ,
find them. Then hold them.
' Tho Hershey Volunteer firemen will hold
their ban quet at Grantville on Thurala y
