              Mrs. Chas. Lebo
Wins First Prize
in Brown Sugar
Cake Contest
The cake contest conducted by the
Hershey Department Store ended on
Friday evening of last week. There were
48 cakes entered in the contest, submitted
by women from Hummelstown, Palmyra,
Campbelltown, Union Deposit, Hershey,
and vicinity.
There was only one rule in this cake
contest, which was, that Old-Fashioned
Brown Sugar, Grandma's kind, had to be
used.
Mrs. Chas. Lebo, of 133 Areba Avenue,
of this place, was awarded the first prize of
$10.00 by the judges, headed by Mr. M. S.
Hershey. Mrs. Lebo's cake was so out-standing
in its excellence that it received
the unanimous verdict of the judges, with-out
any hesitancy.
The recipe is as follows :
Boil raisins. Put 1 teaspoon soda in
while boiling. Let cool before putting in
cake. «
2 cups Sugar (brown)

3 cups flour
1 small teaspoon soda mixed in flour
1 large teaspoon baking powder.
ICING
1 tablespoon butter
Sugar
Mix with cream
Flavor with vanilla
Color with Mapleine
Sprinkle ground nuts over top.
There was only one prize, but so wonder-ful
was the cake submitted by Mrs. James
Hatton, of 31 N. Lincoln street, Palmyra,
that the judges decided to award her a
special prize of $10.00.
The recipe is as follows :
COCOA ANGEL CAKE

Sousa And His Band
Opens 32d
Concert Tour
Sousa and his band appeared before two
immense audiences in the Hershey Park
Convention Hall on Saturday and Sunday
afternoon, totaling at least 10,000 persons.
Standing room was at a premium before
the concerts opened. The big auditorium
was a maze of color and waving fans with
large American flags draped around the
hall for holiday effect. Many people
grouped on the grass and under the trees
heard the concerts from the outside.
On Saturday evening *he thunder
storm frightened the crowds away and the
attendance numbered less than 1000. On
Sunday evening the auditorium was about
one-half filled.
America has come to look upon Sousa
and His Band as an institution. The
band never appeared to better advantage.
It played with the abandon and perfect
accord of long-continued leadership.
The audience insisted upon encore after
encore at each concert, and Sousa gracious-ly
responded. That old time favorite,
The Stars and Stripes Forever," fairl y
took the people off their feet, as did "The
Liberty Belr , "Washington Post ", and
"Semper Fidelis."
The suite, "Cuba Under Three Flags," a
new composition of Sousa's, was heartily
applauded . The number begins with a
series of Spanish selections, representing
the time' of the Spanish rule, followed by
American popular airs at the time the
United States had control of the island , and
ends with several modern Cuban selections,
representing Cuba of to-day.
The two new marches "The Black Horse
Troop" and "The National Game", the
latter dedicated to American baseball ,
made a hit , and were enthusiastically
received .
"Jazz America " and "Music of the
Minute", new arrangements by Sousn, a
fantasy of ixipular jazz melodies of the
day, were applauded vigorously.
The cornet solos by John Dolan were
enjoyed by all. as were the xylophone
selections by Geo. Carey and Howard
Goulden. Harold B. Stephens caused
galea of laughter by his saxophone encore
numl>er "Laughing Gas". Miss Marjorie
Moody, soprano, proved an unusually
fine vocalist, Her voice Is pure and sweet
and flexible and is used admirably.
"When will Sousa return?" was a
question on every lxxly 's lips after the
progra m of July 4th.

Former Editor of The
Press Writes About
The Chocolate and
Cocoa Town
[The following article, which was pub-lished
in the Philadelphia Record, Sunday,
July 5th, was written by Victor Erlen-meyer,
a former editor of the Press:]
On the extreme eastern edge of Dauphin
county in the beautiful Lebanon Valley,
surrounded by hundreds of acres of the
most fertile soil, stands an orphans school
owned by the orphans themselves. It is
the Hershey Industrial School, an institu-tion
which stands out among such schools
in America as probably the only one of its
kind.
For 200 orphan boys, for that is the
number now enrolled, own a fine group of
school buildings, a 45-acre chocolate and
cocoa factory, 10,000 acres of farms, scores
of creameries, four Cuban sugar mills,
community and . since then has built the
largest chocolate and cocoa manufacturing
plant in the world, and one of the model
towns and show places of America on
farms surrounding his birthplace.
An outstanding characteristic of Mr.
Hershey is that he does not like to talk
about himself, although he takes justi-fiable
pride in what he has accomplished.
He is proud of his town, his factory and,
particularly, of the school. He explains
how it was that while the trust fund was
established in 1918 the fact was not made
public.
"Back in 1898 and 1899, when I pur-chased
the old homestead where my father,
Henry H. Hershey, lived and which became
the first building of the school, I first
began to think of it ," said Mr. Hershey.
"Ten years later my wife and I deeded the
homestead and about 500 acres of land to
the school and then, after I saw the busi-ness
was growing and upon its feet, I
decided upon the trust fund. The reason
I provided for the school trust was that I
might get the foundation laid while I still
was alive. The whole arrangement will
now continue just the same as if I were
here. I have always realized that farming
is the backbone of the country. At first
my plan was to provide a small school for
boys who could learn farming, but the
training is now also mechanical. My
plans for the next ten years for the school
will mean an enrollment of from 500 to
1000 boys. I want the boys to grow up
feeling they have a home, and probably
some day some of them will be running the
business."
Today the town of Hershey has about
3000 inhabitants where 22 years ago stood
one structure, a little red schoolhouse. It
has its own water and electric plants,
street car lines, a beautiful modern park
and a department store and in every way
stands out as one of the most unique com-munities
in America, for here surrounding
the 45-acre factor y, stand the cozy and
comfortable homes of the employees.
Other hundreds of Mr. Hershey's workers
live in nearby towns. The fact that no
strike ever was called in the great plant , is
evidence that Mr. Hershey's treatment of
bis employees has been such as never to
warrant any later disturbance.
Summed up, Hershey is a little city in
the country, for here in the Hershey Park
each season are found the greatest artists
of the world, including bands of world
reputation , and in addition a stock com-pany
gives programs in a fine theatre. A
convention hall also is a feature in the
park section , with a seating capacity of
several thousand which attracts conven-tions
of national scope.
50,000 acres of sugar plantations in Cuba,
100 miles of railroads, 45 miles of street
car lines, homes, banks, cafes, theatres,
parks, thousands of cows, horses, mules,
hundreds of automobiles, trucks and
scores of other enterprises.
This happens to be the case, because
Milton S. Hershey, the chocolate manu-facturer,
and his wife, Catharine Hershey,
loved children. Back in 1909 Mr. Her-shey,
together with his wife, who since
died, filed a certificate of incorporation of
the school and a deed for the old home-stead
to the school in the Dauphin County
Courthouse. The certificate of incorpora-tion
provided for a trust estate and was so
drawn that provision for the action taken
later was made then.
The school consists of 800 acres and is
located one mile south of Hershey. The
main structure was Mr. Hershey's birth-place.
It ia on the cottage plan in groups
of 20 boys to a cottage. Boys between the
ages of '&}4 and 6 years whose fathers are
dead are admitted and all are well fed ,
plainly but neatly dressed and well lodged.
Thus one of the greatest fortunes in Ameri-ca,
estimated at probably around $50,000,-
(XX), was signed away with one stroke of
the pen to the sole possession of an orphan 's
school.
Put Soft Pedal on Newa
When this uni que transfer was made
involving many millions, not a line was
printed in an y news|>aix;r , simply because
Mr. Hershey himself put on the soft pedal ,
and while the residents of the town had an
idea of his plans, nothing definite was
given to the world up until a short lime
ago. As far as is known this is the only
case on record where a huge Commercial
enterprise was signed away to provide
care lor orphans.
The bcIkxiI is non-sectarian, but the
moral and reli gious training of the Ixiys is
carefull y conducted . The requirements
for admission are that the boy must be
American born and physically and mental-ly
fit , aa this Is not a school of cripples.
The lx>ard of managers are the directors of
the Hershey Trust Comiwmy. An expert,
investigates each applicant 's case and after
found physically and otherwise fit he is
admitted .
The boys attend school regularly, raise
chickens, assist In th e farming with the
exception of the heavy work , tak e niamiiil
trainin g courses in the big carpenter shop
and are alloyed to play from 5 o'clock
each evening until darkness. They gel up
every morning at. 6 o'clock. They are
instructed in horticulture, agriculture,
gardening and mechanical trades to which
they appear best adapted for useful occupa
lions in life,
In turnin g over the st<x-k of the I Iershey
Chocolate Company and its 15 under-lying
coronations , Mr. 1 Iershey provided
a trust fund Hint primarily looks after the
interest of the school and secondarily the
development of the chocolate business. No
surplus is kept Idle, awaitin g possible
future needs of the school. The schools
requirements are looked after us they
occur from net profits and if there is any
money left, over it is put back into the
business, which the school owns, thus
Increasin g the school's assets.
Considered Plan for Year*
' There is no definite amount set aside
each year for the school, but the earnings
since the trust was provided always have
been more than sufficient. Prior to that
time, Mr. Hershey, out of [Mirsnnal funds,
maintained the school. The Hershey
Trust Company, the onl y school trust , is
the trustee of the school. Into this
company go the profits of all other com-panies,
with the exception of the chocolate
company, none of which have any pre-ferred
stock, Juat 22 yearn u«o, Mr.
Hershey, who then wan a successful candy
maker in Lancaiter, returned to his home

( The Smokestack ;
j Sp ©«/<# Gee I
It Is Too Hot
It is the kind of weather
We can look for in July,
Our old friend the thermometer
Keeps consistently up high.
We go to the theaytre
And we stick fast to the seat
A thunder shower breaks on us
But doesn't relieve the heat.
We try to date a girl up
And we get an icy glare,
But the lady cools the air off
Not the slightest by her stare.
In fact this kind of weather
For us fat men is a curse,
We wonder if in realms below
They have weather just as worse.
And if they have, we pity
"It won't be long till Christmas, will it,
Ma?"
Next Christmas when the thrill of
Christmas tree and presents is over, they
will say, "It won't be long till the Fourth,
will it, Ma?"
Our idea of the prize optimist: the fellow
who says, as he watches the smoldering
ruins of the home of his dreams, "Gosh, this
smoke keeps the musketeers away all
right, don't it, Marthy?"
Who's the Joke?
Judson, "How's your son getting along
in college, David?"
David, "Fine. He writes me he has
joined the glee club."
Judson, "H'm, a humorist, hey."
Keep An Eye on It
There is an old negro living in Memphis,
who was taken ill several days ago and
called a physician of his race to prescribe
for him. But the old man didn 't seem to
be getting any better, and finall y a white
physician was called.
Soon after arriving, he felt the negro's
pulse for a moment and then examined his
tongue. "Did your other * doctor take
your temperature?" he asked his patient.
"I don't know, sah," answered the
negro in a feeble tone, "Ah hadn 't missed
anything but mah watch so fah, boss."
Hayin* It
(Up Where I Come From)
It 's lots of fun to hay it
Up where I come from,
The ground is awful stony
And the fields up there are some
Steeper 'n what they are down here,
And grass ain 't nigh as thick—
Still if I was a-goin' to hay it ,
I guess that the place I'd pick
Is up where I come from.
It 's lots of fun to hay it
Up where I come from,
The side hills are so steep there
I would swear they 're almost plumb
Perpendickerler, by jinks.
And it takes a MAN to load
A big jag that will stay on the wagon
And jounce down a rough hill-road ,—
Up there where I come from.
It 's lots of fun to hay it
Up where I come from,
The hay is mostly weeds there,
But I wouldn't swap, by gum,
Side hills for your level land ,
And I know your dirt is rich ,
No, I wouldn 't dast swap with you fellers. You've six times the ha y to pitch
As up where I come from.
(Continued on Page 2)
All the congregation there,
In case they want to come back here,
We'll send their railroad fare.
Oh, let 's cut out this jingling
Mess of purple tommyrot!
Who wants to be literary
When the weather is so hot?
We hope the million readers of the
Smokestack will pardon the bit of poetic
license in the first line of the second verse.
We say this in order that the million
readers will not be led to believe we don't
know our stuff. Of course we really mean
the'atre, instead of theay'tre, but to make
the rhythm rhythmatic, we have to move
the accent from the first to the second
syllable. No harm done, we trust . We
shall move the accent right back to the
first syllable as soon as we have finished
with the word.
Mystery Solved
We were sitting in fron t of the bandshell
in the park on Sunday, and we saw a very
interesting phenomenon. Just ahead sat
a man wearing one tan and one black shoe.
That struck us funny,—until we discovered
the fellow had one fixit up on his knee, and
one shoe, the black one, belonged to the
man beside him.
We would like to know how many Frozen
Snaps were consumed in the park over the
Fourth. As for ours trul y, we did our
part in helping the good work along.
117,000—Editor].
Saturday evening we went to the Park
Thea t re and saw, ''The Whole Town's
Talking." We still have a pain in the side
from laughing so hard. Also we enjoyed
the interesting bit of pantomime in the
firs t act. There we sat, about six rows
back of the reserved seats and wondered
what it was all about. The rain came
down so fast we feared the nxif would give
way. The storm made so much noise we
couldn 't hear what the actors were saying.
We had about 'decided to demand our
money back when the shower abated .
Then we were mighty glad we "stuck
around." Ri ght away we quit kicking
abou t not getting our money 's worth. We
got. our money's worth a dozen timeft over .
The la st part of the play dealt with the
problem of how to get home in the rain
without a raincoat or an umbrellow. Ixi lh
of which we had thou ghtfully left at home.
Whil e tin; people near the exits were
stickin g their hands out to.see if It was
raining hard enough to knock their fingers
out of joint , they were left in the dark as to
the matter , by the sudden d!sapi>carancc
of the lights. Was there a panic? Of
course notl Kvery young couple seemed
to enjoy the darkness.
However what with the lightning bugs
and the matches and the flashli ghts and the
candles and the few unixiwdered noses
shinin g as beacons unto all the world, the
eclipse wnsii'l total for very long. Sixin
Statues of Liberty begun to enlighten the
world , and as Louie Brlnker brought on a
pair of big lantern's, the electricity electro-cuted
once more, and the dark days of the
revolution were past.
We want to apologize for saying last
week that t here Is no pep to the Fourth of
July any more. When we read the lists of
the dead and dying from accidents, auto-mobile
and fireworks, somehow we feel
that people still know now to celebrate the
day as it should he celebra t ed and that our
forefather 's fou ght not In vain.
Children have a way of lixildn g toward
the future. Old people have a way of
lixildn g hack Into the past.
Old people say, "When we were kids, wo
did Urns and how."
Children are little philosophers. This
ia their comfort, now the Fourth is over:

Ole Timer:
This will be just a note to tell you I did
live through the Fourth after all. We
made Hershey in good time, discounting
the two punctures, the traffic, and the
million times those kids yelled "Daddy
let's stop and get a drink of water." The
little ole bus ran fine. I passed a Rolls
Royce easy it was going the opposite
direction.
And speaking of crowds! The world,
his wife, and the postman all seemed to
congregate in Hershey to celebrate the
founding of this land of liberty. But we
did find a place to park and a table for our
picnic lunch.... the "Wife says it was in
spite of my brains. I sat in the potato
salad , and Junior threw a bottle of Cocoa
Milk at Sister, because she put a fire-cracker
in his pocket.
We got good seats at the Concert and
did enjoy that a lot. Even the kids were
quiet. Then we toured the park and I
couldn 't resist the pool. Man, that slide's
great ! I was having a great time, until
some little idiot yelled just as I walked by,
"Ach, Mom, see that funny looking man."
It must have been the hired bathing suit
and the tortoise shell glasses.
We had supper at the Restaurant here.
It was a darn good meal, much better than
the picnic. The wife got mad when I said
so, claiming I was casting asparagus on
her cooking. Now I am a brave man, but
I wouldn 't go that far.
There was a dance here in the evening.
Darn good music, perfect floor, everything
all set. But the kids got sleepy, and then
the rain let loose and we had to lift anchor
and set sail for home. I am coming back
soon for more, and you 're coming with me.
Cherrio!
JoeGish.
Oh God
Not wise, but Wisdom Itself ,
All seeing,
All knowing,
Why didst Thou dq this thin g?
We did not complain
When very young brothers
At very early hours
Lit firecrackers under our windows.
Nor yet when the dear baby
Spilt
Cocoa Milk
All over the dress we ju st got from the
cleaners.
Was there a murmur
A single cry
When the people back of us
Talked out loud
During the concert?
We didn 't hit
One of those•2800568 fcxils
Who said '
"Hot enough for you?"
We danced
And didn 't mind the crowd
The heat
The rain
Or even getting stuck In the mud coming
home
But. wh y, oh why,
Didst '1 hou make
Sunday to come so soon after Saturday,
And cause the fifth to follow ho closely
The Fourth of July?

"Gettin g Gertie 's
Garter " Will Make
You Howl With
Laughter
If you want to^laugh, if the blues~'are
chasing you and you want to forget that
there ever were such thin gs. If you want
to see the greatest comedy vehicle that
Broadway has had in years, don't miss one
of the performances of "Getting Gertie's
Garter " by the Sherwood Players, at the
Hershey Park Theatre, on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday of this week. It is
perhaps as great a fun maker as you have
evefchad the chance to sit through. You'll
laugh until you ache but when the final
curtain drops you'll wish that there was
still more of the wholesome fun of the
piece ahead of you.
"Getting Gertie's Garter " piles one
intensely funny situation on top of another.
It tells the story of the hunt for a missing
garter in lines that are one howl after
another. It deals with characters that
you'll know and fall in love with. Yes,
there's a love story, and a mighty pretty
one at that. But the thing that will con-vince
you that you've more than had your
money's worth is the fun that you'll get
out of your evening.
It doesn't matter if you're a man or a
woman; if you're young or getting along in
years, ^."Getting Gertie's
^
Garter" will
tickle your funny bone until you almost
sob with joy. Hundreds of thousands of
other people have laughed at it until they
ached, and you'll join the ever increasing
army who have voted "Getting Gertie's
Garter" one of the finest fun makers they
have ever seen.
Because of the demand for tickets, Park
Manager John SoUenberger wisely sug-gests
that it will be a good idea for you to
secure your favorite seats at the earliest
possible opportunity.

Lovers of band music will again have an
opportunity of hearing the famous Crea-tore's
Band, with Giuseppe Creatore,
conductor, at the Hershey Park Conven-tion
Hall on Saturday and Sunday, July
25th and 26th. The engagement will
consist of two concerts daily, at 2.30 and
7.30 p. m.
Creatore's Band has not been heard at
Hershey Park since 1923, at which time
the band by their interpretation of pro-grams
of such popular appeal, created a
demonstration of much enthusiasm.
Each member of the band is a master of
his instrument. "The wood, reed and brass
instrumentation is most effective, and the
ensemble is perfect at all times. There is a
unanimity of action and a precision of
movement that makes it appear as if the
band is a gigantic pipe organ.
As a conductor Creatore stands in the
foremost rank; he has all the emotional
feeling of his race. Every motion of his
face and gesture of his hands mean some-thing,
and he obtains the highest results
and the last atom of feeling and expression
from his men and the varied instruments
composing his wonderful organization of
musicians.
Miss Pauline Talma, a California girl.
the vocal soloist with Creatore's Band this
season, has a soprano voice of pleasing
range and power and which she displays to
good advantage and it has been predicted
by music critics that she is on her way to
become the sensation of grand opera. On
the stage she is a concert singer of poise,
conventionally gowned and stately beyond
her years. Her voice technic is of a very
high order, and with her clear emotional
value, besides being easy to look at, both
as to face and feature, she has a remark-ably
clear and sweet lyric soprano, so well
trained that she takes the .high passjfee s
in her vocal efforts like a bird . . " ¦ -Sh
The program for Creatore's engagement
at Hershey are agreeably diversified and
varied, arranged to appeal to the modern
taste for the lighter and snappier airs.
