homes assigned them.
In welcoming to their homes these little
boys and-girls from the slums of the nations
metropolis the people of Hershey and
vicinity are doing a philanthropy, the
myriad benefits of which will never be
recorded. They are providing for these
walled up children of the city streets not

but an opportunity that will carry with it
considerable influence for good as the
youngsters go back to the big city's slums.

Optimism Gaining
In Business World
The feeling of cheerfulness that had its
inception in late May and became wide-spread
in June, reached notable propor-tions
in July, when in a month not usually
noted for such developments a really
optimistic view as to trade and industry
generally pervaded the business world,
according to the monthly review of gen-eral
business conditions in the current
number of Nation 's Business Magazine,
published by the Chamber of Commerce
of the United States.
"The fact that industry generally did
not , as earlier feared, recede as it did a
year ago, thus making for better than
expected employment, also helped," it
states. "Midsummer retail trade, though
below June, was certainly better than a
vear ago. fall buvine was more perceptible,
business failures and liabilities continued
to decrease from last year and the bank
clearings outside of New York increased
over June.
"The apparent illogical situation was
noted of trade, impressed by farm product
prices, being higher than a year ago, losing
sight of the fact that these higher prices
were mainly based on smaller prospective
crop yields.
Americans generally have gotten away
from the time when big yields, pure and
simple, were hailed as a stimulant to busi-ness.
The answer is probably that there
never really was any profit in the oldtime
burdensome surpluses, except possibly to
the railroads in the form of enlarged ton-nage,
because the surpluses had to be sold
in the world's markets at any price they
would bring.
"The upward movement in all whole-sale
prices, except for farm products,
which lx:gnn in May, went further in July
to a point indeed higher than at any time
since late in 1920. An upward rush of
prices may have its drawbacks later.
Several times In the last half dozen years
the result of these advances have not been
such as to commend themselves to ultimate
consumers. Speculation as to just where
and when the price shoe will pinch suffi-ciently
hard , however, remains a problem.
There are those who think , however, that
consumption would be vastly stimulated if
prices generally could lie gotten down
uniformly to a lower level.
"Crop developments have been closely
watched , but the advices from nature s
laboratory have not been altogether con-clusive.
Alxnit the surest thing involved
was that the late, like the early crop season,
is nn early one and that'danger from frosts
in the North and boll weevil at the South,
is rather slight. The promise at present is
nlxiut as Indicated a month ago, that Is for
a big corn crop, 3,000,000,(XX) bushels,
against 2,437,000.000 bushels a year ago.
"Spring, like winter wheat, will be Ixslow
a year ago. While cotton is indefinite, a
crop fully equa l to Inst year 's 13,600,000
hales is prolwble. Potato and tobacco
yields will lx> short of last year.
"One of the features of the industrial
situation which nets It apart from that of a
year ago was the failure of the reaction,
which Txicnnlc visible In March , to go as
far ns it did last summer. As already
noted , silk , cement and ruhlxir manu-facturing
have broken records this spring.
In addition, automobile, plg-lron, steel,
cotton and woolen manufacturing and
lumber production , to cite a few more
prominent Instances, have all exceeded a
year ago In output.
Thirteen million gold marks (about
$3,(XX),000) flow into the coffers of the
German post office , annually, In the form
of radio license fees.

Hershey High School Building
Modern From Every Viewpoin t The schoolhouse no longer is just an old
brick building, although it has not been
many years since it was considered, from
an architectural viewpoint, among the
least attractive of a community's im-provements.
It isn't likely that a score of years ago a
community booster would have exploited
his town or city by displaying the school
building of that time, for while these old
structures were substantial in construction
they were frequently impracticable and
nearly always lacking in beauty.
This condition is a thing of the past,
however, and the appearance of educa-tional
buildings in recent years has ad-vanced
in a measure as great as education
itself, with the result that the modern
school building, from any viewpoint, will
more than hold its own with structural im-provements
of all types and will be a lasting
benefit to the community in which it is
built.
Hershey's new High School building
ranks high in the architectural world, and
it will compare favorable with any educa-tional
structure to be found in any of the
larger cities. Its construction cost close to
$600,000. Every facility known to
modem times was installed in the building,
while its design is destined to make the
structure an eventual show place of the
town.
The High School has three stories and
basement, 135 by 235 feet, with three
wings. It fronts on Granada Avenue,
forming a semi-circle. Construction is of
concrete and light buff brick with terra-cotta
and limestone trim. C. Emlin
Urban , of Lancaster, was the architect.
An imposing tower is a feature of the
structure.
There arc four double doors leading into
the building. Inside is a wide stairway,
which leads to the three floors. Down-stairs
is the large auditorium. This
auditorium is, we might say, a knockout
in its completeness. It is more like a
theatre in its arrangement and appoint-ments
than one would expect to see in a
school. There are three sections of seats
on the lower floor, seating 625 persons. In
the balcony there are 190 chairs. From
the lofty ceiling hang 15 beautiful chande-liers.
The chairs are on an incline, per-mitting
an unobstructed view of the stage,
which is 20 feet deep by 35 feet in length,
enabling presentation of plays of an almost
metropolitan aspect. The electrical fix-tures
are the latest and most modern.
There are four double doors leading into
the auditorium and six double doors as
exits.
On this floor are four study rooms.
Here, also is the manual training depart-ment,
equipped with 7 machines, each
with its individual motor. Here also are
26 large woodworking benches.
Adjoining the manual training depart-ment
is the cafeteria. The kitchen is
equipped with electric ranges, electric
dishwasher, electric warmer, refrigerator ,
and what not. The serving counters are
modern, with every facility for quick
service. The eating space is large, with
41 marble-top mahogany tables and 164
chairs.
On the second floor, is 9 study rooms,
and 3 smaller rooms. Here is a large
library, which is splendidly arranged ,
having 7 oak tables and 28 oak chairs. The
General office , the Supervising Principal's
office and the emergency rooms are close
by.
Further on is the mechanical drawing
room, with 39 desks and chairs.
On the third floor is 6 study rooms and
3 smaller rooms. Here is the tyiiewriter
room, with 20 desks, and each holding a
Royal typewriter.
Down the corridor , (acing the north , is
the laboratory—which is without a doubt
one ol the finest and most complete to be
found in any High School in the entire
county. The study room is equipped
with 18 desks and 36 chairs. In the
lecture room is an electric stereoptican ,
with chairs. The laboratory itself is
equipped with every modern device de-voted
to experimental study in any branch
of natural science, or to the application of
scientific principles in testing and analysis
or in the preparation of chemicals, etc.
Across the corridor is the music room,
with 40 chairs and a new Windsor piano.
In the eastern wing is the sewing room,
with 4 tables, 24 chairs, 5 Singer sewing
machines, and other furniture.
Close by is the Domestic Science room.
Here are 7 electric stoves, with bakers, 12
work tables and 7 sinks, and other furni-ture
and appliances. In an adjoining
room is the model dining room.
Each of the study rooms has its book
and cloak closets. An intercommunicat-ing
telephone system has been installed
throughout the entire building. Sanitary
drinking fountains are located just where
they are most needed. The fire-fighting
apparatus is modern.
This beautiful educational building did
not cost the taxpayers of Derry Township
a single penny. It was erected by Mr.
M. S. Hershey, who has donated it to the
Derry Township School Board, as he did
the Consolidated School building.
What a fortunate thing it is for the
people of this township that they have Mr.
M. S. Hershey living in their midst, who so
willingly goes ahead and provides modern
educational facilities for their children.
We wonder many times just how many
there are who really appreciate what he has
done and continues to do. Which reminds
us of Wordsworth , who says:
"I've heard of hearts unkind , kind deeds,
With coldness still returning;
Alas, the gratitude of men
Hath often left me mourning."
The Reformers.
They have snatched away his beer
From the downtrod working man,
Now he must make his own
The beat way that he can.
They have changed the old saloon
To a soda fountain ; here
For two bits he can buy
A bottle of near-beer.
They won't let the poor cuss spit
On the floors of trolley cars,
If caught at this he may
Be put behind the bars.
They delete the choicest scenes
Of the movies that he sees,
They 'd like to legislate
The skippers from the cheese.
They don 't like to see a man
' Steer his auto with one arm ,
Although the other 's used
To keep hia girl friend warm.
Now the prohibition fight
Is what you might call won,
They 're looking round alxnit
For pew deeds to l>e done.
We have stood for quite a lot
From these reforming guys ,
But patience has Its end
And when some poor sap tries.
To put through « law against
'1 obacco chiiwing and
The smoking of the weed,
Watch out , O Native I-and!
Only three months till snow shoveling
time. Hasten , O Happy Day. We have
imd enough of Hummer already. That
reminds us. The old coal bin Is still
empty, and a coal strike Is schedulc^in the
near future, but our motto is "Why Wor-ry."
In case coal to keep the home fires
burning cannot he had when we are ready
to fill the bin , wo shall merely go where wo
have often lx«u told to go. where It Is so
lint that old Satan never Ixithers to auk ,
"Is It hot enough for you?"
"Reckon I never told you," rein lea the
Man with the Cedar Cheat, "how the big
blucksnake Unit used to live up there in the
rocks met his end. Well you nee It was
this way. The darn fool was so monstrous
long that on Ills way back from getting a
drink at the spring he mot hia other end
only halfway down the hill."
We suppose you Dauphin Countians
have often heard the snake story old
Colonel Something-or-other from Up
Where I Come From is so fond of telling.
Says the Colonel, "In them days 1 was
doin' quite a bit of travelin ' and as I had
never seen the Capitol buildings at Harris-burg,
I went up there one midwinter day.

calling Reno the Towanda of the West.
Inside Information.
In her drajicd and darkened tent the
amateur palmist was telling fortunes for
the charity bazaar .
"Ah," she said impressively to a fair
maiden who had impatiently waited her
turn , "I see by your hand that you are
going to be married ."
"How wonderful!" breathed the client
with a blush and a giggle.
"Moreover," continued the scercss. a
note of acerbity creeping into her voice.
"I see the happy man is to be Mr. Jinks.
") iul nurcly, " exclaimed the maid in real
surprise, "you can 't read that from the
lines in my hand ."
"Lines nothing, " exclaimed the sibyl
with sudden scorn. "You are wearing the
ring I returned to Mr. Jinks three weeks
ago!"
As I drew near the Capitol I saw a wonder-ful
commotion on the grounds. The
snow which was about a foot deep was a
dyin ' in all directions, and as I drew still
nearer I could make out what the rumpus
was about. Right there in midwinter as I
said afore, was two of the largest reptiles I
have ever laid eyes on, a wraslin' to beat
the hand. All to once one reptile grabbed
the other 's tail in his mouth. The second
reptile grabbed the first reptile by the tail
likewise. They formed a sort of a hoop
thataways a-rollin ' around and around the
grounds, a-gradually catln ' of each other
up till as sure as my name's Colonel Some-thing-
or-other they tee-totally consumed
one another till nary n sixxxlgin of either
snake was left. Now sir, my story may
seem a hit hard to believe, and to tell the
truth the liquor a feller gets now a days
ain 't near so gcxxl as It was them days.
Howsomever if old Lis Struble was alive I
could prove my story beyond the shudder
of a doubt because he was the first person
I ever told it to."

"How far is it there?" was tlie next
question.

Hon. G. H. Moyer To Speak
To Chocolate Company
Employees Monday Evening
On Monday evening, August 31, at 8.00
o'clock, all employees of the Hershey
Chocolate Company, Hershey Depart-ment
Store, Hershey Lumber Co., Hershey
Transit Co., Hershey Farms and other
allied industries, are earnestly requested
to attend a "Safety Meeting", at which
Hon. G. H. Moyer, who is in charge of the
State Workmen's Insurance Fund, will be
the speaker.
An injury to, or loss of, any part of the
human body is always saddening. Sym-pathy
is quick to respond to those who are
unfortunate thru any form of physical
incapacity. But modern industry, while
it has done wonders in reducing its hazards,
still demands much in the way of pain and
suffering from ' those who court her re-wards.
New processes and developments in
industry have created new hazards yet
only a small percentage of the millions of
gainfully employed are exposed to them.
The bulk of injuries are still caused by
hazards which existed long before the age
of machinery. Falls of persons and ob-jects
have perhaps claimed more victims
than wars and automobiles combined yet
safety men are still busy teaching people
to work and live safely in spite of the law
of gravitati on. Flying part icles have
caused eye injuries since the stone age but
getting men to use protective devices is
still an acute problem in many plants.
No hazard which still figures in the
accident reports is too old or too familiar
to be discarded from present and future
discussions. It is sure to be new to many
while others have forgotten it. We do not
need new subjects so much as new ideas,
new viewpoints and new presentations of
many of our old ones.
Mr. Moyer is an able and eloquent
speaker, we might say, orator has the
happy knack of putting things across.
The details of accident prevention have
become so familiar to us that we take it for
granted everyone else knows about them.
Mr. Moyer will tell us how to overcome or
safeguard those frailties of human charac-ter
which, left without attention, create
unsafe conditions and practice which
undermine our work.
There will be two reels of moving pic-tures.
Don't forget the date, Monday evening,
August 31st. The hour, 8.00 p. m. The
place, Hershey Central Theatre.
It is urged that every employee make it
a point to be present, women, as well as the
rnen. We want to tax the Hershey Cen-tral
Theatre to its utmost capacity.
"Friendly Enemies ", Now
Playing at He rshey Park,
Should Be Seen by All
Since the memorable night in March
1918, when President Wilson rose in his
box at the National Theatre, Washington
and publicly endorsed "Friendly Enemies",
that play has been establishing itself as
one of the greatest popular successes of all
times. It has been playing continuously
for two years throughout the length and
breadth of the United States and the
British Isles to audiences that literally
cheered in the enthusiasm of their approval.
"Friendly Enemies" will be presented at
Hershey Park Theatre on Thursday, Fri-day
and Saturday by the Sherwood Players.
President Wilson's comment on the
play is internationally famous. He said—
"All that I can say has already been said
most admirably in this beautiful play. All
the sentiments I could express have been
admirably represented—sentiments that I
hope, will soon grip the world." To the
President's endorsement has since been
added the endorsement of other notable
men; the enthusiastic approval of the
press of the United States and Great
Britain and the applause of millions of
playgoers in both countries. The New
York Times, one of the most conversative
newspapers in the United States called the
play, "one of the great theatrical proper-ties
of the last decade."
"Friendly Enemies" will make you
laugh and weep almost at the same in-stant;
it will make you feel and it will make
you think. A famous critic said "Friendly
Enemies Enemies' has the laughs of
'Potash and Perlmutter' and the tears of
'The Music Master.' " No playgoer who
is at all interested in the theatre can afford
to miss this masterpiece of popular appeal
which is making theatrical history.
In "Friendly Enemies", there are two
Germans, one friendly to Germany, one to
America, but each a close friend of the
other. Karl Pfeiffer still clings to his
German traditions, while Henry Block is a
loyal citizen. Eventually, as the interest-ing
plot unwinds, Karl also turns against
Germany and becomes loyal, but mean-while,
they have many arguments.

FRED PRONIO AND HIS ORCHESTRA
The crowds of people who have as-sembled
to hear the concerts given by
Fred Pronio and His Orchestra at Hershey
Park this summer afford plenty of evidence
both that this is a music-loving community
and that we had a good orchestra. The
hearty applause that was given upon the
rendition of the selections were particularly
encouraging.
The relation between the orchestra and
the community is a reciprocal one. For a
thoroly successful concert a good orchestra,
is the first essential, and a good audience
the second. It is heartening to feel that
Hershey Park had both.
Mr. Pronio, who had charge of the
orchestra this season, as in past seasons,
brought to his work not only excellent
technical qualifications, but plenty of '.
enthusiasm and an attitude that makes for i
team work. The members of the orches-tra
responded and gave their best. The <
orchestra merited the encouragement that' '
,they received and they responded to it '
whole-heartedly, rendering programs rep- '
resenting the highest type of music, inter-spersed
with popular and syncopated j azz, ,
covering a wide field of musical endeavor, i
During the Summer from Decoration <
Day to Labor Day the orchestra played < daily, before audiences that numbered up I
to the thousands. On*-special occasions ' the large seating area in front of the band- <
shell has been taxed to its utmost—which ;
clearly shows how much the people of I
Hershey and vicinity care for music of a
superior sort.
Music not only provides education and
entertainment, but injects culture into the
masses and brings a wholesome, favorable
influence into their lives. Music increases
contentment and adds enjoyment of life.
Its great function is to steady the nerves.
It cures hundreds of mental patients who
might otherwise remain unresponsive to
treatment, and it is reforming derelects in
aur reformatories and prisons. It is as
5ssential to the human race as food or
Fresh air, especially in these hectic days
when life proceeds at a high rate of speed.
Good music inspires man with fresh vigor
ind energy and sends him to his daily
talk with a light heart and willing hands.
