Without A Home
We Merely Exist
It is said that no other language has an
exact equivalent for dur word HOME.
House, mansion, abode, dwelling, habita-tion—
these but poorly express the wealth
of feeling and affection which crowns the
homely, homey name of HOME. As John
Howard Payne has so beautifully expressed
it:
"// J return home overburdened unth care,
The heart's dearest solace I 'm sure to
meet there,
The bliss I experience whenever I come.
Makes no other place seem like that of
sweet home."
A prize was once offered for the best
definition of Home. There were five
thousand replies. Among the list were
these: ,
"A world of strife shut out, a world of
love shut in."
'The father's kingdom,, the children's
paradise, the mother's world."
"The coziest, kindliest, sweetest place in
all the world, scene of purest earthly joys
and deepest sorrows."
"A hive in which, like the industrious
bee, youth garners the sweets and memo-ries
of life for age to meditate and feed
upon."
"An arbor which shades when the sun-shine
of prosperity becomes too dazzling; a
harbor where the human bark finds shelter
in time of storm."
A humorist suggested these:
"The best place for a married man after
business hours."
-"Where you are treated best and grum-ble
most."
What America needs most of all is not
"back to the farm," but back to the home.
More t eal living, and less "fliwing," more
good cooking, and less jazzing ; more time
around the evening lamp, ana less in front
of the movie flicker.
Recreation is good and needful, but the
eager and constant pursuit of pleasure—
anywhere but at home—invariably leads
to discontent and unhappiness—if nothing
worse!
A real hoome need not be rich or elab-orate.
A few rooms, cosy, cheerful and
comfortable, are capable of supplying more
real home to the, square inch than a palace.
The home atmosphere cannot be bought :
it must be created by loving, unselfish
hands. It is a priceless possession, fit for
any king; but a joyous reality which few
kings have ever known.
With all your getting do not fail to get a
home. Nothing else will take its place as a
retreat after a hard day 's work. Make It
something more than a mere place to eat
and sleep, Revive the old home circle.
Get acquainted with the children. Make
home the center of attraction for them.
The breaking down of home life makes
itself felt by such contributions to society
as the cake-eater, lounge-lizard, finale-hopper,
bobbed flapper and other breeds of
wild women. , , , . , •
Try to imagine a good old Thanksgiving
Day observed without a real home circle.
You may pay ten dollars a plate for an
elaborate hotel dinner , but it will taste flat
and insipid when you think of the celebra-tions
of your boyhood in the old home.
"A home for everybody," is our motto,
"and everybody at home—at least part of
the time!"—The Paper Book.

had a several weeks layoff, our beloved
Chocolatiers played a rather listless and
ragged game on Labor Day, and as a result
Richland came out victorious. Books

Baseball Fan Enthuses
Over 1924 Team
Editor Hershey Press,
Hershey, Pa.
Dear Sir:
We note in last week's issue of the local
paper, a plea to the fans of Hershey to
support the baseball game on Labor Day,
in order that the players may receive a
little remuneration for their faithful efforts.
We favor this splendid idea, but regret
that there is no mention of the "untiring
and faithful efforts" of the team's genial
manager, Traynor* who welded together
one of the best teams Hershey has had in
years, and also, the old faithful worker for
all branches of sport, John Snavely, Mana-ger
of the Men's Club.
Don't you think these men are at least
entitled to a worthy mention?
Yours for further clean sports such as we
have witnessed this past season.
A Booster.
(There is no question' about the splendid
results brought about by Manager Tray-nor,
also Secretary J. F. Snavely's untiring
efforts to give Hershey a winning team.
The results speak for themselves. When
we speak of the team collectively, we refer
to the manager, as well as the secretary,
also the two directors, James Murray and
Dr, H. G. Mumma, also our worthy caller
of balls and strikes "Peggy" Putt and our
arbitrator on the bases,' Wm. Hyland.
There is no doubt about it, the Hershey
baseball team did their part, altho the
Hersheyites fell down on the job, and their
financial support was conspicuous by its
absence).
CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR SOCIAL

LICENSE TAGS TO BE EARLY
If any Pennsylvania motorists fails to
have his 1925 license plates on January 1,
1925, It will be his own fault. The State
Highway Department will start the ma-chinery
for the issue of 1925 tags early,
and, beginning Sept. 2d„ owners of motor
cars will receive from the automobile
division of the department already filled-in
applications for 1925 licenses.
All that a present owner of a car need do
to obtain a 1925 set of license plates will be
to sigh his name to the application and
return it with the proper fee to the division.
DERRY PRESBYTERIAN PICNIC
Don't forget the Presbyterian Sunday
School picnic in the Church Grove, Satur-day

Hershey to Organize
Boy Scouts Troop
The Hershey Men s Club is going to
organize a Boy Scout Troop, with Alex
Magrini as Scout Master. This is a splen-did
move, and every boy in Hershey and
vicinity should join, for Boy Scouts goes
to make character and good, citizenship.:
The aim of the Boy Scouts is to supple-ment
the various existing educational
agencies, and to promote the ability in
boys to do things for themselves and
others. It is not the aim to set up a new
organization to parallel in its purposes
others already established. The oppor-tunity
is afforded these organizations
however; to introduce into their programs
unique features appealing to interests
which are universal among boys. The
method is summed up in the term Scout-craft,
and is a combination of observation,
deduction, and handiness, or the ability to
do things. Scoutcraft includes instruction
in Safety First methods, First Aid, Life
Saving, Tracking, Signaling, Cycling,
Nature Study, Seamanship, Campcraft,
Woodcraft, Chivalry, Patriotism and other
subjects.
A glimpse of the life of a Boy Scout as
described by one who belongs, is as follows:
A Scout! He enjoys a hike through the
woods more than he does a walk over the
city's streets. He can tell north or south
or east or west by the "signs." He can tie
a knot that will hold, he can climb a tree
which seems impossible to others, he can
swim a river, he can pitch a tent, he can
mend a tear in his trousers, he can tell you
which fruits and seeds are poisonous and
which are not, he can sight nut-bearing
trees from a distance; he can reef a sail or
take his trick at the wheel, and can pull an
oar or use paddles and sculls; he knows the
stars by name and can find his way by
them; he can identify birds and animals
and fish and knows the ways and habitat of
each.
A scout walks through the woods with
silent tread. No dry twigs snap under his
feet and no loose stones turn over and
throw him off his balance. His eyes are
keen and he sees many things that others
do not see. He sees tracks and signs which
reveal to him the nature and habits of the
creatures that made them. He knows
how to stalk birds and animals and study
them in their natural haunts. He sees
much, but is little seen.
A scout, like an old frontiersman, does
not shout his wisdom from the housetops.
He possesses the quiet power that comes
from knowledge. He speaks softly and
answers questions modestly. He knows
a braggart but he does not challenge him.
allowing the boaster to expose his ignorance
by his own loose-wagging tongue.
A scout holds his honor to be his most
precious possession, and he would die
rather than have it stained. He knows
what is his duty and all obligations im-posed
by duty he fulfills of his own free
will. His sense of honor is his only task-master,
and his honor he guards as jeal-ously
as did the knights of old. In this
manner a scout wins the confidence and
respect of all people.
A scout can kindle a fire in the forest on
the wettest day and he seldom uses more
than one match. When no matches can
be'l.ad he can still have a fire, for he knows
the secret of the rubbing sticks used by the
Indians, and he knows how to start a blaze
with only his knife blade and a piece of
flint. He knows, also, the danger of forest
fires, and he kindles a blaze that will not
spread. The fire once started, what a
meal he can prepare out there in the open!
Just watch him and compare his appetite
with that of a boy who lounges at a lunch
counter in a crowded city. He knows the
unwritten rules of the campfire and he
contributes his share to the pleasures of
the council. He also knows when to sit
silent before the ruddy embers and give
his mind free play.
A scout practices self-control, for he
knows that men who master problems in
the world must first master themselves.
He keeps a close guard on his temper and
never makes a silly spectacle of himself by
losing his-h ead. He keeps a close guard on
his tongue, for he knows that loud speech
is often a cloak to ignorance, that swearing
is a sign of weakness, and that untruthful-ness
shatters the confidence of others. He
keeps a close guard on his appetite and
eats moderately of food which will make
him strong; he never uses alcoholic liquors
because he does not wish to poison his
body; he desires a clear, active brain, so he
avoids tobacco:
A scout never flinches in the face of
danger, for he knows that at such a time
every faculty must be alert to preserve his
safety and that of others. He knows what
to do in case of fire, or panic, or shipwreck;
he trains his mind to direct and his body to
act. In all emergencies he sets an example
of resourcefulness, coolness, and courage,
and considers the safety of others before
that of himself. He is especially consider-ate
of the helpless and weak.
A scout can make himself known to a
brother scout wherever he may be by a
method which only scouts can know. He
has brothers in every city in the land and
in every country in the world. Wherever
he goes he can give his signs and be assured
of a friendly welcome. He can talk with a
brother scout without making a sound or
he can make known his message by imi-tating
the clock of a telegraph key.
A scout is kind to everything that lives.
He knows that horses, dogs, and cats have
their rights and he respects them. A
scout prides himself upon doing "good
turns," and no day in his life is complete
unless he has been of aid to some person.
A scout does not run away or call for
help when an accident occurs, if a person
is cut he knows how to stop the now of
blood and gently and carefully bind up the
wound. If a person is burned his knowl-edge
tells him how to alleviate the suffer-ing.
If any one is dragged from the water
unconscious, a scout at once sets to work
to restore respiration and circulation. He
knows that not a minute ran be lost.
A scout knows that people expect more
of him than they do of other boys and he
governs his conduct so that no word of
reproach can truthfully be brought against
the great brotherhood to which he has
pledged his loyalty. He seeks always to
make the word "Scout" worthy of the
respect of people whose opinions have
value. He wears his uniform worthily.
A scout knows his city as well as he
knows the trails in the forest. He can
guide a stranger wherever he desires to go,
and this knowledge of short-cuts saves hjm
many needless steps. He knows where the
police stations are located, where the fire-alarm
boxes are placed, where the. nearest
doctor lives, where the hospitals are, and
which is the quickest way to reach them.
He knows the names of the city officials
and the nature of their duties. A scout is
proud of his city and freely offers his ser-vices
when he can help.
A scout is a patriot and is always ready
to serve his country at a minute's notice.
He loves Old Glory and knows the proper
forms of offering it respect. He never
permits its folds to touch the ground. He
knows how his country is governed and
who are the men in high authority. He
desires a strong body, an alert minq\ and an
unconquerable spirit, so that he may serve
his country in any need. He patterns his
life after those of great Americans who
have had a high sense of duty and who
have served the nation well.
A scout chooses as his motto "Be Pre-pared,"
and he seeks to prepare himself for
anything—to rescue a companion, to ford a
stream, to gather firewood, to help strang-ers,
to distinguish right from wrong, to
serve his fellowmen, his country, and his
God—always to "Be Prepared."
The Cacao Bean-Its Commercial Value
(By Alvin Fox, B. Sc. Ph. D.)
Agricultural Botanist
Cacao is at home in Haiti, especially
the south eastern sections, where there are
moist wind sheltered valleys with a day
temperature of 80 degrees and a night tem-perature
of 65 to 70 degrees. Cacao trees
are often found in the moutains where
the temperature is much lower than
this, but the lower altitude and higher
temperature are well (known to be most
favorable.
Some planters say that shade la not
necessary except for the first three or four
years, and others say that shade is abso-lutely
necessary, not alone for the young
plants, but for the older trees. Neverthe-less,
it is not probable that, under the same
conditions, a cacao tree needs radically
different treatment in other countries from
what it docs in Haiti.
Again, cacao is propagated almost entire-ly
from seed, and until a few years ago. it
waa thought that It could be propagated in
no other way. The seeds arc sometimes
taken from the best pods of the most
vigorous or prolifl trees, but often no such
selection is made, and it is difficult to find
a plantation in certain sections of Haiti In
which all the types, ¦ varieties and inter-mediate
strains are not grown side by side,
On account of this promiscuous planting,
it is very difficult to secure seeds today of
good type.
In grafting and budding a cut is made In
one of the seedlings with a sharp knife,
removing a thin slice of wood with the
adhering bark, from three to five inches
long. A similar cut is made on a branch of
the tree of the same size as the seedlings
and the two cut surfaces placed together so
that the bark of one touches the bark of the
other, on one side at least, If they are not
exactly the same size. They are then tied
together with soft twine or raflla, and also
tied to a stake in such a manner that the
wind cannot swing them back and forth
and thereby prevent them from growing
together. The only tqol needed is a thin
bladed knife, sharp as a razor, with which
to cut the bud, and some soft yarn raffia or
tape with which to wrap the bud after it la
inserted. It is especially necessary to be
careful in cutting the bud so that it is
smooth and straight. A ragged bud torn
off or cut with a dull knife will not unite.
Cacao is eeldom cultivated in some parts
of Haiti in the sense in which that term is
usually applied. In many plantations the
cultivation consists entirely in cutting the
weeds with machetes (cutlasses), although
the more progressive planters fork the soil
occasionally. Such a thing aa plowing and
cultivation in a cacao plantation in this
island is practically unknown. This is of
course natural in view of the methods
employed. It would be impossible to
plow land full of stumps and roots, and by
the time these obstructions have disap-peared,
the soil could be plowed without
doing great injury to the roots of the cacao
trees. In new plantations planted on level
land and with the trees planted 20 feet
apart, the conditions are different. The
soil may be plowed and cultivated year
after year.
Again, in growing cacao for commercial
markets, the planters must select seeds
from vigorous, disease resistant, prolific
cacao trees—producing beans of good
quality. The trees from which the seeds
arc selected should be surrounded by no
other cacao trees, except those of the same
variety and they should fill the require-ments
as set forth above. If a tree is
surrounded by other trees, the flowers
should be hand pollenatcd and covered
with cheesecloth to exclude pollen.
The beans are picked by natives and
broken open on the field ana the beans are
scooped out by hand. The beans ore
placed in heaps in so-called "sweating
rooms." Every day the heaps are turned
over with a wooden shovel in order to let
sufficient air in, so that the sweating may
be thorough. ' After being treated iri this
way for four'or six days, the beans are laid
in the sun to dry, during which process
they must be regularly turned over and
then, after Ave days, if the weather is good,
they are ready to sack for shipment. The
larger plantations are provided with drying
machinery which in the rainy season is an
absolute necessity when large area is plant-ed
to cacao, They are provided with
washing machines for the washing of beans.
A cacao estate under scientific methods
should produce from 500 to 600 pounds of
cacao to the acre.
Cocoa and chocolate are both prepared
from the cacao bean—one being mode from
the "powder mess" and the other from "the
fat." The cacao beans are polished and
roasted before made into commercial
products.
Whiteman s Orchestra
Appeals As Usual
Paul Whiteman's famous "jazz" orches-tra
returned to Hershey on Labor Day and
gave a return engagement in the Conven-tion
Hall. Hershey Park.
The program was varied and interesting
from the opening number "Pomp and
Circumstance," Elgar, to the final of
"Rhapsody in Blue" by George Gershwin,
which is recognized by New York critics as
the first serious effort in musical composi-tion
in the American idiom.
The teamwork of the orchestra Was
splendid, just what the teamwork of this
far-famed orchestra should be, for into it
Paul Whiteman infused his own enthu-siasm,
his vibrant personality and his
rhythmic temperament. He carried his
orchestra as one man, and it carried an
entranced audience on the waves of synco-pated
melody which is known by the
modem term "jazz." This name, how-ever,
is a misnomer, according to White-man,
who, in the program, says:
"Some ten years ago a blatant method of
treating music was introduced to the
American public which came to be known
as jazz.
"This program purposes to indicate the
tremendous strides which have been made
in modifying this treatment, proving that
the term jazz though still applied to the
melodious music of today is a misnomer.
"The greatest single factor in the im-provement
of American popular music has
been the development of the art of arrang-ing
the music for orchestra, in accordance
with the best musical traditions.
"As a result there are thousands of young
people scoring, arranging and composing:
they are creating most of the American
music of today. They are not influenced
by any foreign school; on the contrary,
their own influence is spreading abroad."
The popular one-steps and fox trots
(American creations) and his own composi-tion,
"Wonderful One," were played with
the verve and finish that only Paul White-man's
orchestra could give them. The
audience could not keep their feet still, and
this perhaps, was as fine a tribute as the
applause at the end of the number.
Adoration," Borowski, and "Hymn to
the Sun," Rimsky-Korcakoff, were very
ably portrayed, but the interpretation of
"By the Waters of Minetonka," Cavanass-
Liewrance, which is basically and essen-tially
American, was a revelation. It was
accelerated to a rapid waltz movement
which had its popular appeal but which
detracted from the aboriginal cadence.
The solo work of Ross Gorman, wizzard
of the saxophone, "who can evoke the
laugh of a hyena from a hecklephone" was
truly remarkable. •
Morton Downey, who sang Emeralda,
Phil Bontelje, by general request, is the
possessor of a splendid tenor voice, noted
for its sweetness. Mr. Downey's expres-sion
was very good, and his rendition of
"Emeralda" called forth two encores:
"What'll I Do?" and "The Moonlight and
You "
Michael Pingatore's solo performance on
the banjo in "Linger Awhile," was most
noteworthy as was the piano solo by Harry
Parella in Rhapsody in Blue."
Davis Says World s
Bright Spot Is 0. S
"America is the one bright spot in a
world of economic gloom," James J. Davis,
Secretary of Labor, said in a Labor Day
address at Fort Hamilton before the Cen-tral
Trades and Labor Council of Greater
New York.
"The American worker and the Ameri-can
manager of industry are moving rapid-ly
toward complete co-operation—toward
that mutual goodwill and mutual under-standing
which ultimately will insure
permanent peace in industry, "he said.
Throughout our whole economic system
we see the evidence of prosperity."
He contributed the condition of the
worker in this country to the maintenance
of high wage standards following the war,
which upheld the Nation 's purchasing
power while European industries and
European laborers were in the slough of
depression.
He said it would be well for workmen to
remember in these days of wild political
and economic theories that the spirit of
America and American progress continues,
as always, to lie in the principles of the
American Constitution.
"Another labor year lies behind us," Mr.
Davis concluded. "It has brought us
many blessings. But a new year stretches
ahead, filled with its own tasks and its own
problems. Let us perform these tasks and
meet these problems in the spirit of Ameri-ca.
Let us move steadily forward to still
greater heights of prosperity by doing a
day'a work every day."
ANNVILLE BOY ESTABLISHES
WORLD'S RECORD
Eddie Miller, of Annvillc. Buffalo second
baseman, established what is believed to be
a world's record for hitting in a Class AA
professional baseball series, when ho made
seven hits in seven times at bat in Wednes-day's
double header with Baltimore,
bringing his total number of safe hits in
the three game series to 11. in 12. tries,
eight of which were consecutive. During
the present series Miller has failed to make
on error in the field , handling 20 chances,
nine oh Tuesday and 11 Wednesday, six in
the first game.

"Just Married " To Be
Presented At Park
Definite announcement that the Kramer
Players will offer "Just Married" at the
Park Theatre next week is news of more
than ordinary import to the theatre-going
public. Hershey is extremely fortunate
to be one of the limited number of places
where "Just Married", which has enjoyed
engagements of unprecedented length in
all the larger cities of the country, has been
made available for stock release for one
week only.
"Just Married" is the merry honeymoon
farce-comedy which electrified New York
for two years, Chicago for six months,
Philadelphia for four months, and Boston
for five months.
"Just Married" was written by Adelaide
Matthews, author of "Nightie Night" and
"Scrambled Wives," and by Anne Nichols,
noted author of "Abie's Irish Rose", now
in its third year in New York.
The action of "Just Married" covers
seven days, the time required for the
French liner Lafayette to sail from Bor-deaux,
France, to New York. It is indeed
a novel setting for a hilarious comedy.
It will be recalled that "Just Married",
during its record-breaking engagements,
boasted of Vivian Martin, noted screen
and stage star, and Lynne Overman, one
of the cleverest light comedians, in the
principal roles. Miss Kramer leading
lady of the local stock company, will be
seen in the Vivian Martin role and Mr.
Crabtree the leading man, in the part that
made Lynne Overman a star.
