m THE An Independent Family Newspaper, Devoted to Literature, Agriculture, Local and General Intelligence. VOL. XXXVIII LITITZ, PA., THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 25,1915. N 0. 28 EVENTS i l l ! TOLD INTERESTING THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN TOWN AND VICINITY. Items of Minor Mention, So to Speak but of Interest to the Average Reader at Home and Abroad. The stork presented bouncing baby boys at the homes -of Reuben Kissinger ahd Ira Good on Monday night. Samuel M. Eby, of Elizabeth town-ship, has made an assignment for the benefit of creditors to C. N. Derr, of Lititz. The various Sunday-schools are earn-estly rehearsing the programs for rendi-tion on Easter. From all reports they are unusually fine this year. There will be a meeting of the Fourth of July Springs Committee in the coun-cil chamber this evening at 8 o'clock. All members are urged to be present. At a meeting of the Lititz auxiliary of the Lancaster General Hospital, held Tuesday afternoon, $37.35 was voted for the new laundry and §25 for the re-plenishing fund of the institution. Two carloads of storage furniture will be sold at public sale at the Warwick House on Saturday, April 3. Among it is some good goods, all of which must be disposed of to the highest bidder. A good-sized flock of wild geese passed over town about '6 o'clock on Monday morning, northward bound. Almost daily either a flocjc of geese or ducks are to be seen going toward Canada. The Love-One- Anothercirele of King's Daughters gave a sauer-kraut sapper in the market house last Saturday. After air expenses are paid there will be a profit of about $55, which is very good indeed. The Elizabeth Farms Sunday-school will render their Easter exercises on Easter Sunday at 7 P. M. "The Tri-umphant Story" is the title of the pro-gram and everybody is eordiaMy invited to attend. David Helman received about £0,000 pounds of leaf tobacco from the farmers on Wednesday. Among the lots were those of Albert Longeriecker, 'William Geib, John Kauffman and I. H. Landis. Mr. Helman has been a heavy purchaser of the 1914 crop. Who is the married man who was up the railroad above the Lititz Springs on Sunday kissing and hugging a widow 2 Instead he should have been at home with his wife and children, who would just long for his kisses and eare as a father and husband. John M. Long & Son, undertakers, on Wednesday disinterred and removed the remains of four children from Lane's meeting house cemetery in Manheim township to Longenecker's meeting house cemetery west of town. They were all Forney children. This evening about forty members of Cocalico Lodge No. 400, of Ephrata, will come to Lititz to pay a return visit to Lititz Lodge No. 253 Knights of Pythias. The local degree team will confer the rank of Knight, and after the business session luncheon will be served. All Pythians are urged to attend. Sunday, the first day of vernal spring, was a typical early spring day. Genuine March winds driving a rather raw, biting air, made the day just a trifle uncom-fortable. But there were quite a num-ber of the gentler sex on parade and some of them were wearing the spring style hats and other wearing apparel. Mrs. S. C. Seaber had many callers last Saturday in honor of her 70th birth-day. In the evening a family supper was served, when her daughter, Mrs. Cuvier Grube, of Lancaster, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Seaber and child, and Nat. Seaber and family enjoyed a meal which Mrs. Seaber knows so well how to pre-pare. The foot and mouth disease has played havoc with the steer fattening business during the past winter. According to statistics made public by the State De-partment of Agriculture, only 10 per cent, of the farmers of the state have steers for the spring market. This number is considerably smaller than usual. Frank Burkholder, the local imple-ment dealer, has received an Emerson Cultivator with Tobacco Hoes and also an Emerson or New Standard Mower. Farmers in need of these implements, which are the last word in their line, should not fail to call and see them. See Mr. Burkholder's adv. elsewhere in these columns. Prof. H. H. Beck, of this place, who is professor of chemistry at Franklin and Marshall college, Lancaster, deliv-ered a lecture on "Chemistry in Modern Warfare" to the members of the Dorm club at the Lancaster Y. M. C. A. on Monday night. It proved most inter-esting and Prof. Beck was presented with a large bunch of carnations by the men. Mrs. Jacob Garner, an aged woman living on East Front street near the U. B. church, is seriously ill with a com-plication of ailments. Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Yeiser and family were at Lebanon from Saturday to Sun-day. A grandchild of the couple was baptized there on Sunday. Leinbach & Brother, the well-known Reading clothiers, are ready for the buying public with a complete line of ready-made spring and summer goods for you and the boys. They are good, reliable dealers and when you buy at Leinbachs' it must be satisfactory in every respect. See their large adver-tisement elsewhere in the RECORD. What's this appaling news we read in reference to our sister burg of Manheim. Here it is: "Levy F. Abel spent the day in Manheim organizing a kennel of eighteen yellow dogs." No, reader, this does not mean that the citizens are going to tfae "bow-wows," for it is simply the name of a beneficial organiza-tion known as the Order of the Yellow Dogs. Next Thursday will be April first, and of course there will be the usual amount of business of all kinds transacted, such as business changes, movings, settle-ments and the like. We expect to spend the day at the old stand and will be pleased to receive all callers, particular-ly those few who have possibly neglected to settle their accounts with us. Small favors gratefully received. With less than two weeks intervening before the celebration of Easter, the stores of town are offering everything imaginable appropriate for that season. Clothiers are displaying a fine line of latest modes in spring suits, while the extensive showing of confectionery for the Eastertide was never equal to this year. Your wants can be supplied right here at home almost without exception. On Monday morning Bantam King D. G. Witmyer shipped a pair of his fancy bantams to California. Some time ago Dan. expressed a trio of birds to the Golden state. But only one of the bantams reached their destination. The last seen of the other; wo according to letter received by Mr. Witmyer is that they were perched on top of a box car going east in one of the western states. Anton, commonly known as Anthony Wildt, for many years a resident of this place, was taken to the county alms-house on Monday morning by Constable Allen Hacker. He is 69 years of age and is unable to do any labor. His wife resides at this place. Wildt is a native of Bavaria, and years ago had a brother who was an officer in the Bavarian army. This brother sent him money, it is claimed, on various occasions. Fred. Spinner, proprietor of the War-wick greenhouses, will have 3000 hya-cinths and a large variety of other flowers ready for Easter. He is already receiving large orders for flowers and will send a large consignment to Akron and Ephrata. Besides having flowers for sale at his home, Mr. Spinner will have a choice display at Doster's store from Saturday on. His flowers wiil also be on sale at Chas. Miller's store. See his adv. elsewhere in this issue. Clayton Hoover, who resides on East Main street, and who lost his wife by death last week, requests the RECORD to thank all neighbors and friends who came to his assistance and relief during his sad bereavement. He appreciates all that was done in behalf of himself and children. He has rented a home on South Broad street, where next week he and his family of five children, be-sides the married daughter and husband, will all live, thus keeping all the family together. Wayne Longenecker has had a large gasoline tank of six barrels capacity in-stalled under the pavement along the curb in front of his restaurant near the railroad station. He intends furnishing the gasoline to autoists and motor-cyclists, who come the way, as well as the general public. The tank is most conveniently located and Mr. Longe-necker will undoubtedly accommodate many motorists and others. The gaso-line is drawn from the tank by means of a pump which registers the amount taken out from a pint up. These ap-paratuses are to be found in many towns and are a great convenience to the traveling motorists. A salesman had a very narrow escape from being struck by the engine of the northbound passenger train near the station on Monday morning. He no doubt heard the train coming but did not take the precaution to stop, look and listen, for he came running along the Broad street side of the chocolate fac-tory and onto the railroad track, just getting over the track as the engine came thundering along. Persons near-by had shouted a warning to him, but he seemed to have his thoughts concen-trated upon getting on the train. He got on the train allright but his lack of precaution came near resulting in his being struck by the engine. NUMEROUS PERSONS CALLED TO THE GREAT BEYOND. Child Found Dead in Bed Mary, wife of Albert Shenk, residing about a mile west of town, had the heart-rending experience of finding her eight-months-old baby, Susan F., dead in bed on Wednesday morning about 4.30 o'clock. Deputy Coroner A. B. Reiden-bach and his physician Dr. E. E. Evans, were sent for and conducted an investi-gation, pronouncing death caused by convulsions. Besides the parents, 3 sisters and one brother survive. The funeral will be held on Friday afternoon, with services at the house at 1 o'clock and at Erb's meeting house at2 o'clock. Interment will be in the adjoining ceme-tery. Death of an Infant Anna May, the infant child of Allison and Ada Webber, of Kissel Hill, died on Saturday morning of convulsions, aged eight months and thirteen days. The funeral was held on Tuesday afternoon, with services at the Kissel Hill Lutheran church, and interment made in Mach-pelah cemetery. Rev. Geo. D. Clarke officiated. CONCERNING THE DILE MOTOR CO. Death of Daniel R. Brackbill Daniel R. Brackbill, son of the late Henry and Susan Brackbill, died at his home at the West Earl Hotel on Wed-nesday morning of apoplexy, aged 60 years, 5 months and 6 days, after an ill-ness of only two days. He is survived by five children, namely: Bertha, wife Benjamin L. Miller, of near Lititz; Lizzie, wife of Jacob Kreider, of Weid-manville; Stella, wife of Harry S. Buck-waiter, Lititz R. D. No. 3; Granville, of near East Petersburg, and Susan, wife of Clayton F. Buckwalter, Lititz R. D. No. 3; also seven grandchildren, and also one brother and sister, namely: Harry, of Lancaster, and Emma, wife of Amos E. Martin, of Millway. Mr. Brackbill was widely known and had hosts of friends. He had been proprie-tor of the West Earl Hotel for over thirty years. The funeral will be held from his late home on Saturday morn-ing at 9 o'clock; interment at Landis Valley at 10 o'clock. Relatives and friends are cordially invited to attend. Mrs. Catharine Beard Mrs. Catharine Beard, aged 86 years, passed away quietly last Friday evening at Mt. Penn, near Reading. She suf-fered a paralytic stroke 12 clays ago, having been robust in health up to that time. Deceased was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Shiffer, who resided near Elm, in Elizabeth township. Her husband, James Beard, preceded her in death 14 years. She resided with her son, William M. Beard. Deceased was a Lutheran by faith.

Have Received Orders for 1500 Cars Whether the Dile Motor Company will remain in Reading or remove its plant to Lititz is as yet undecided, This is the information given a RECORD representa-tive by Mr. N. B. Leaman, who in com-pany with F. B. Buch, visited the Dile people at Reading on Tuesday. If ever a concern had bright prospects for the future it is the Dile Motor company. As was stated in a previous issue Mr. Lengel, one of the Dile concern, was unable to come to Lititz on several oc-casions owing to the fact that he was called to New York by the Remington Typewriter people. These people have been experimenting on a touring car auto for a few years but have never placed it on the market. They want the Dile Motor Co. to manufacture this touring car for them, which will sell at $695. It was to consummate this deal that Mr. Lengel had to spend much time in New York. Remington representa-tives were in Reading on Tuesday and they have placed an order for 1000 of the touring cars which will be made by the Dile company and known as the Remington car. They also placed an order for 500 Dile roadsters. Thus the Dile Motor company has orders on hand for 1500 cars from one concern. There is just as much of an opportun-ity for Lititz to secure the industry as there has been at any time since the project was launched. In some respects the chances are better than what they were some weeks ago. It is understood that Mr. Buehmiller, the owner of the vacant starch building, where the Dile company would possibly be located, is willing to make some concessions regard-ing the price of the building. What is needed, as has been previously stated, is the raising of $25,000 by local persons. There have been numerous persons who have stated that they will boost the in-dustry by subscribing for stock. But owing to the long time which has in-tervened since the project was started without anything being accomplished definitely, some people have not as yet promised to subscribe who no doubt would do so when the matter takes a definite form. Mr. Lengel expects to spend a day here the latter part of the week. Let the town get on the job and if necessary hold a public meeting to discuss the matter. It is time that definite action of some kind be taken. THOUGHT GERMAN ARMY WAS COMING Persons in Vicinity of Wissler's Row Heard Numerous Shots Fired one Night Last Week Persons residing in Wissler's row and vicinity were awakened from their peace-ful slumbers one night last week by the firing of a number of shots in rapid suc-cession. Some thought that the German army was coming the way, while others thought that the row of houses was the object of a Zeppelin raid and that bombs were being dropped in the neighborhood. Naturally after being awake a few moments without having the roofs of their homes fall in on them and noticing that the shooting had ceased, the resi-dents breathed one large sigh of relief and thankfulness. Many were the rumors afloat the next day as to the cause of the disturbance. It is alleged that it was a man hunt. A resident of the row, who is employed in one of the local industries at night, is alleged to have had suspicions that his wife was receiving the attention of an-other man while he was toiling. On the night of the above mentioned escapade it is claimed this man slipped away from his work and went to his home to confirm his suspicions. Sure enough, when he entered his home he is said to have discovered another man. The lat-ter beat it out the door with the real husband in pursuit. Hubby had a re-volver and he is said to have fired five shots after the fleeing home-wrecker. But from all accounts his aim was bad, for as far as can be learned none of our physicians have been called upon to give first aid to the injured. Go ne to the Convention Prof. Paul E. Beck is spending this week in Pittsburg, where he is attend-ing the convention of National Associa-tion of Music Supervisors, of which he is a member. Our Board of Education, as well as those of the other towns where Prof. Beck is engaged, willingly sanc-tioned his temporary absence in view of the great forward impulse which the work in music derives therefrom. It is a source of satisfaction to know that our system of school music is ex-actly similar to that of the more ad-vanced cities in America and that the best and most recent theories in this line are constantly being tested and ap-plied to it. TRAVELERS NEAR AND EAR A COLUMN TO KEEP YOU IN TOUCH WITH OLD AND NEW NAMES The Whereabouts of Your and Our Friends as Thev Move To and Fro. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Rettew spent last Sabbath at Akron. Mr. John H. Purdy of Philadelphia was in town last Friday. Miss Sue Furlow, employed at Read-ing, spent Sunday here with relatives.

Sturgis, who is ill. Miss Bertha Sesseman, of Reading, spent several days with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Sesseman. Mr. Frank Meiskey, employed by the Scott Paper Co., at Chester, is spending a week here with his mother, Mrs. Ezra Habecker. Miss Ada Mae Schnerer spent Satur-day and Sunday at Kinzers, Pa., being the guest of her friend Miss Phoebe Slaymaker. Mr. and Mrs. Phares Mahlschnee spent from Friday to Sunday at Reading visit-ing relatives. Mrs. Arlington Rader and son Richard are spending the week at Lancaster. Mr. Rader spent Saturday and Sunday at the same place. Miss Olive Stoner, a Millersville Nor-mal school student, is spending the Easter vacation with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Stoner. Mr. John Reedy and niece, of Strick-lerstown, Lebanon county, spent from last Friday to Monday in town with Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Schmuck. Mr. B. B. Grennel, of Chicago, III, spent Friday and Saturday in town as the guest of Dr. H. A. Cuppy. Mr. Grennel is the general manager of the Chapman & Smith Co. Miss Mary Grosh, daughter of C. Wm. Grosh, and who is a student at Millers-ville Normal school, is spending part of her Easter vacation with her sister Miss Emma Grosh at Penngrove, N. J. Mrs. Ralph Bassler, of Chicago, spent a few hours in town last week as the guest of Mrs. B. F. Grosh. A few weeks ago she came to Meyerstown to attend, the funeral . of her step-sister Miss Mosser, who died in one of the Ha-waiian islands. Mrs. Sarah M. Beckler today is at-tending the funeral of Mr. Clarence Lenher at Mechanicsburg, Cumberland county. He was a son of the late Dr. Lenher and a stepson of the late Mrs. Susan Lenher, the latter having been a native of Warwick township. Chester Ritchie made a trip to Ash-land, Schuylkill county, in one day last week on a motorcycle, which he deliver-ed to his brother Lloyd. He experienced some rough roads and walked quite a few miles where the descends were too slippery on account of snow and ice. Champion Was a Member of Local Gunning Club Recently Mrs. L. C. Voge!, of Detroit, Mich., who is one of the best wing and target shots in the feminine ranks in the world, won the gold medal emblematic of the women's championship at targets at the Sportsmen's Show in New York city with a score of 45 out of 50. Mrs. Vogel has held this title for several years. Mrs. Vogel was Miss Anna M. Reiker, of Lancaster, before marriage. On several occasions she shot at targets at this place, and at one time was a member of the Pastime Gunning Club, which has its traps on the local base ball diamond. Her best record here was the breaking of 17 out of 25 targets. This is a very good record, particularly at the local traps, which, owing to the background, make shooting unusually difficult. 'LITITZ NIGHT" AT STOUGH REVIVAL More Than 500 Persons from This Place Attended the Evangelistic Services at Lancaster Last Evening Wednesday night was "Lititz night" at the Stough tabernacle on East Chest-nut street, Lancaster. The announce-ment that special accommodations would be made for the persons of this place was made in the churches on Sun-day and at once met with the approval of many. During the days intervening until Wednesday more and more persons expressed their desire to hear the re-vival and sure enough, when Wednesday evening arrived more than 500 of our citizens of all ages and denominations were "on deck" to board special trolley cars. The majority of the special cars left here about 5.50. When they reach-ed Chestnut and Duke streets the pas-sengers dismounted from the cars and1 headed by the Lutz family band, march-ed to the tabernacle in a body. The members of the Moravian church who arrived about a half-hour later had a standard bearer in the lead, with a banner which ¡jad the Words "Lititz" and "We Seek to Serve" on it. As the Lititz folks entered the taber-nacle they were greeted with applause from the thousands who were already in the building. Prof. Spooner, who conducts the choir of more than a thou-sand persons, had composed a chorus about the Lititzites, which was render-ed by the choir and made a big hit. He also inquired whether the delegation had brought bretzels along and thereupon one of our citizens seated about 50 feet away from the platform tossed a bretzel at the choir leader, who made a great one-hand catch of the twist. beTahueti fusil nagnind gi s owf ortthhe a chsopierc iaisl tirnipd eetdo tLioannsc ahsatde r bteoe nh earer.n deArefdte r tsheev ecroall lescetlieocn- 7w0a0s0 loirf temd oraen d ptehoep len opisree semnatd ea sb y thtehye drersoepmpebdl etdh eai rs hcoowinesr . inDtor . tShteo utginh sptlaatteeds tchoallte cstoiomne polnaet ed raonpdp ehde pa rebsreenttzeedl tinh ist hteo aL uRtze abdainndg wneaws scpaallpeedr omn atnh en easrt abgye.

N 0. 28 EVENTS i l l ! TOLD INTERESTING THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN TOWN AND VICINITY. Items of Minor Mention, So to Speak but of Interest to the Average Reader at Home and Abroad. The stork presented bouncing baby boys at the homes -of Reuben Kissinger ahd Ira Good on Monday night. Samuel M. Eby, of Elizabeth town-ship, has made an assignment for the benefit of creditors to C. N. Derr, of Lititz. The various Sunday-schools are earn-estly rehearsing the programs for rendi-tion on Easter. From all reports they are unusually fine this year. There will be a meeting of the Fourth of July Springs Committee in the coun-cil chamber this evening at 8 o'clock. All members are urged to be present. At a meeting of the Lititz auxiliary of the Lancaster General Hospital, held Tuesday afternoon, $37.35 was voted for the new laundry and §25 for the re-plenishing fund of the institution. Two carloads of storage furniture will be sold at public sale at the Warwick House on Saturday, April 3. Among it is some good goods, all of which must be disposed of to the highest bidder. A good-sized flock of wild geese passed over town about '6 o'clock on Monday morning, northward bound. Almost daily either a flocjc of geese or ducks are to be seen going toward Canada. The Love-One- Anothercirele of King's Daughters gave a sauer-kraut sapper in the market house last Saturday. After air expenses are paid there will be a profit of about $55, which is very good indeed. The Elizabeth Farms Sunday-school will render their Easter exercises on Easter Sunday at 7 P. M. "The Tri-umphant Story" is the title of the pro-gram and everybody is eordiaMy invited to attend. David Helman received about £0,000 pounds of leaf tobacco from the farmers on Wednesday. Among the lots were those of Albert Longeriecker, 'William Geib, John Kauffman and I. H. Landis. Mr. Helman has been a heavy purchaser of the 1914 crop. Who is the married man who was up the railroad above the Lititz Springs on Sunday kissing and hugging a widow 2 Instead he should have been at home with his wife and children, who would just long for his kisses and eare as a father and husband. John M. Long & Son, undertakers, on Wednesday disinterred and removed the remains of four children from Lane's meeting house cemetery in Manheim township to Longenecker's meeting house cemetery west of town. They were all Forney children. This evening about forty members of Cocalico Lodge No. 400, of Ephrata, will come to Lititz to pay a return visit to Lititz Lodge No. 253 Knights of Pythias. The local degree team will confer the rank of Knight, and after the business session luncheon will be served. All Pythians are urged to attend. Sunday, the first day of vernal spring, was a typical early spring day. Genuine March winds driving a rather raw, biting air, made the day just a trifle uncom-fortable. But there were quite a num-ber of the gentler sex on parade and some of them were wearing the spring style hats and other wearing apparel. Mrs. S. C. Seaber had many callers last Saturday in honor of her 70th birth-day. In the evening a family supper was served, when her daughter, Mrs. Cuvier Grube, of Lancaster, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Seaber and child, and Nat. Seaber and family enjoyed a meal which Mrs. Seaber knows so well how to pre-pare. The foot and mouth disease has played havoc with the steer fattening business during the past winter. According to statistics made public by the State De-partment of Agriculture, only 10 per cent, of the farmers of the state have steers for the spring market. This number is considerably smaller than usual. Frank Burkholder, the local imple-ment dealer, has received an Emerson Cultivator with Tobacco Hoes and also an Emerson or New Standard Mower. Farmers in need of these implements, which are the last word in their line, should not fail to call and see them. See Mr. Burkholder's adv. elsewhere in these columns. Prof. H. H. Beck, of this place, who is professor of chemistry at Franklin and Marshall college, Lancaster, deliv-ered a lecture on "Chemistry in Modern Warfare" to the members of the Dorm club at the Lancaster Y. M. C. A. on Monday night. It proved most inter-esting and Prof. Beck was presented with a large bunch of carnations by the men. Mrs. Jacob Garner, an aged woman living on East Front street near the U. B. church, is seriously ill with a com-plication of ailments. Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Yeiser and family were at Lebanon from Saturday to Sun-day. A grandchild of the couple was baptized there on Sunday. Leinbach & Brother, the well-known Reading clothiers, are ready for the buying public with a complete line of ready-made spring and summer goods for you and the boys. They are good, reliable dealers and when you buy at Leinbachs' it must be satisfactory in every respect. See their large adver-tisement elsewhere in the RECORD. What's this appaling news we read in reference to our sister burg of Manheim. Here it is: "Levy F. Abel spent the day in Manheim organizing a kennel of eighteen yellow dogs." No, reader, this does not mean that the citizens are going to tfae "bow-wows," for it is simply the name of a beneficial organiza-tion known as the Order of the Yellow Dogs. Next Thursday will be April first, and of course there will be the usual amount of business of all kinds transacted, such as business changes, movings, settle-ments and the like. We expect to spend the day at the old stand and will be pleased to receive all callers, particular-ly those few who have possibly neglected to settle their accounts with us. Small favors gratefully received. With less than two weeks intervening before the celebration of Easter, the stores of town are offering everything imaginable appropriate for that season. Clothiers are displaying a fine line of latest modes in spring suits, while the extensive showing of confectionery for the Eastertide was never equal to this year. Your wants can be supplied right here at home almost without exception. On Monday morning Bantam King D. G. Witmyer shipped a pair of his fancy bantams to California. Some time ago Dan. expressed a trio of birds to the Golden state. But only one of the bantams reached their destination. The last seen of the other; wo according to letter received by Mr. Witmyer is that they were perched on top of a box car going east in one of the western states. Anton, commonly known as Anthony Wildt, for many years a resident of this place, was taken to the county alms-house on Monday morning by Constable Allen Hacker. He is 69 years of age and is unable to do any labor. His wife resides at this place. Wildt is a native of Bavaria, and years ago had a brother who was an officer in the Bavarian army. This brother sent him money, it is claimed, on various occasions. Fred. Spinner, proprietor of the War-wick greenhouses, will have 3000 hya-cinths and a large variety of other flowers ready for Easter. He is already receiving large orders for flowers and will send a large consignment to Akron and Ephrata. Besides having flowers for sale at his home, Mr. Spinner will have a choice display at Doster's store from Saturday on. His flowers wiil also be on sale at Chas. Miller's store. See his adv. elsewhere in this issue. Clayton Hoover, who resides on East Main street, and who lost his wife by death last week, requests the RECORD to thank all neighbors and friends who came to his assistance and relief during his sad bereavement. He appreciates all that was done in behalf of himself and children. He has rented a home on South Broad street, where next week he and his family of five children, be-sides the married daughter and husband, will all live, thus keeping all the family together. Wayne Longenecker has had a large gasoline tank of six barrels capacity in-stalled under the pavement along the curb in front of his restaurant near the railroad station. He intends furnishing the gasoline to autoists and motor-cyclists, who come the way, as well as the general public. The tank is most conveniently located and Mr. Longe-necker will undoubtedly accommodate many motorists and others. The gaso-line is drawn from the tank by means of a pump which registers the amount taken out from a pint up. These ap-paratuses are to be found in many towns and are a great convenience to the traveling motorists. A salesman had a very narrow escape from being struck by the engine of the northbound passenger train near the station on Monday morning. He no doubt heard the train coming but did not take the precaution to stop, look and listen, for he came running along the Broad street side of the chocolate fac-tory and onto the railroad track, just getting over the track as the engine came thundering along. Persons near-by had shouted a warning to him, but he seemed to have his thoughts concen-trated upon getting on the train. He got on the train allright but his lack of precaution came near resulting in his being struck by the engine. NUMEROUS PERSONS CALLED TO THE GREAT BEYOND. Child Found Dead in Bed Mary, wife of Albert Shenk, residing about a mile west of town, had the heart-rending experience of finding her eight-months-old baby, Susan F., dead in bed on Wednesday morning about 4.30 o'clock. Deputy Coroner A. B. Reiden-bach and his physician Dr. E. E. Evans, were sent for and conducted an investi-gation, pronouncing death caused by convulsions. Besides the parents, 3 sisters and one brother survive. The funeral will be held on Friday afternoon, with services at the house at 1 o'clock and at Erb's meeting house at2 o'clock. Interment will be in the adjoining ceme-tery. Death of an Infant Anna May, the infant child of Allison and Ada Webber, of Kissel Hill, died on Saturday morning of convulsions, aged eight months and thirteen days. The funeral was held on Tuesday afternoon, with services at the Kissel Hill Lutheran church, and interment made in Mach-pelah cemetery. Rev. Geo. D. Clarke officiated. CONCERNING THE DILE MOTOR CO. Death of Daniel R. Brackbill Daniel R. Brackbill, son of the late Henry and Susan Brackbill, died at his home at the West Earl Hotel on Wed-nesday morning of apoplexy, aged 60 years, 5 months and 6 days, after an ill-ness of only two days. He is survived by five children, namely: Bertha, wife Benjamin L. Miller, of near Lititz; Lizzie, wife of Jacob Kreider, of Weid-manville; Stella, wife of Harry S. Buck-waiter, Lititz R. D. No. 3; Granville, of near East Petersburg, and Susan, wife of Clayton F. Buckwalter, Lititz R. D. No. 3; also seven grandchildren, and also one brother and sister, namely: Harry, of Lancaster, and Emma, wife of Amos E. Martin, of Millway. Mr. Brackbill was widely known and had hosts of friends. He had been proprie-tor of the West Earl Hotel for over thirty years. The funeral will be held from his late home on Saturday morn-ing at 9 o'clock; interment at Landis Valley at 10 o'clock. Relatives and friends are cordially invited to attend. Mrs. Catharine Beard Mrs. Catharine Beard, aged 86 years, passed away quietly last Friday evening at Mt. Penn, near Reading. She suf-fered a paralytic stroke 12 clays ago, having been robust in health up to that time. Deceased was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Shiffer, who resided near Elm, in Elizabeth township. Her husband, James Beard, preceded her in death 14 years. She resided with her son, William M. Beard. Deceased was a Lutheran by faith.

Have Received Orders for 1500 Cars Whether the Dile Motor Company will remain in Reading or remove its plant to Lititz is as yet undecided, This is the information given a RECORD representa-tive by Mr. N. B. Leaman, who in com-pany with F. B. Buch, visited the Dile people at Reading on Tuesday. If ever a concern had bright prospects for the future it is the Dile Motor company. As was stated in a previous issue Mr. Lengel, one of the Dile concern, was unable to come to Lititz on several oc-casions owing to the fact that he was called to New York by the Remington Typewriter people. These people have been experimenting on a touring car auto for a few years but have never placed it on the market. They want the Dile Motor Co. to manufacture this touring car for them, which will sell at $695. It was to consummate this deal that Mr. Lengel had to spend much time in New York. Remington representa-tives were in Reading on Tuesday and they have placed an order for 1000 of the touring cars which will be made by the Dile company and known as the Remington car. They also placed an order for 500 Dile roadsters. Thus the Dile Motor company has orders on hand for 1500 cars from one concern. There is just as much of an opportun-ity for Lititz to secure the industry as there has been at any time since the project was launched. In some respects the chances are better than what they were some weeks ago. It is understood that Mr. Buehmiller, the owner of the vacant starch building, where the Dile company would possibly be located, is willing to make some concessions regard-ing the price of the building. What is needed, as has been previously stated, is the raising of $25,000 by local persons. There have been numerous persons who have stated that they will boost the in-dustry by subscribing for stock. But owing to the long time which has in-tervened since the project was started without anything being accomplished definitely, some people have not as yet promised to subscribe who no doubt would do so when the matter takes a definite form. Mr. Lengel expects to spend a day here the latter part of the week. Let the town get on the job and if necessary hold a public meeting to discuss the matter. It is time that definite action of some kind be taken. THOUGHT GERMAN ARMY WAS COMING Persons in Vicinity of Wissler's Row Heard Numerous Shots Fired one Night Last Week Persons residing in Wissler's row and vicinity were awakened from their peace-ful slumbers one night last week by the firing of a number of shots in rapid suc-cession. Some thought that the German army was coming the way, while others thought that the row of houses was the object of a Zeppelin raid and that bombs were being dropped in the neighborhood. Naturally after being awake a few moments without having the roofs of their homes fall in on them and noticing that the shooting had ceased, the resi-dents breathed one large sigh of relief and thankfulness. Many were the rumors afloat the next day as to the cause of the disturbance. It is alleged that it was a man hunt. A resident of the row, who is employed in one of the local industries at night, is alleged to have had suspicions that his wife was receiving the attention of an-other man while he was toiling. On the night of the above mentioned escapade it is claimed this man slipped away from his work and went to his home to confirm his suspicions. Sure enough, when he entered his home he is said to have discovered another man. The lat-ter beat it out the door with the real husband in pursuit. Hubby had a re-volver and he is said to have fired five shots after the fleeing home-wrecker. But from all accounts his aim was bad, for as far as can be learned none of our physicians have been called upon to give first aid to the injured. Go ne to the Convention Prof. Paul E. Beck is spending this week in Pittsburg, where he is attend-ing the convention of National Associa-tion of Music Supervisors, of which he is a member. Our Board of Education, as well as those of the other towns where Prof. Beck is engaged, willingly sanc-tioned his temporary absence in view of the great forward impulse which the work in music derives therefrom. It is a source of satisfaction to know that our system of school music is ex-actly similar to that of the more ad-vanced cities in America and that the best and most recent theories in this line are constantly being tested and ap-plied to it. TRAVELERS NEAR AND EAR A COLUMN TO KEEP YOU IN TOUCH WITH OLD AND NEW NAMES The Whereabouts of Your and Our Friends as Thev Move To and Fro. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Rettew spent last Sabbath at Akron.

Mr. and Mrs. Phares Mahlschnee spent from Friday to Sunday at Reading visit-ing relatives. Mrs. Arlington Rader and son Richard are spending the week at Lancaster. Mr. Rader spent Saturday and Sunday at the same place. Miss Olive Stoner, a Millersville Nor-mal school student, is spending the Easter vacation with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Stoner. Mr. John Reedy and niece, of Strick-lerstown, Lebanon county, spent from last Friday to Monday in town with Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Schmuck. Mr. B. B. Grennel, of Chicago, III, spent Friday and Saturday in town as the guest of Dr. H. A. Cuppy. Mr. Grennel is the general manager of the Chapman & Smith Co. Miss Mary Grosh, daughter of C. Wm. Grosh, and who is a student at Millers-ville Normal school, is spending part of her Easter vacation with her sister Miss Emma Grosh at Penngrove, N. J. Mrs. Ralph Bassler, of Chicago, spent a few hours in town last week as the guest of Mrs. B. F. Grosh. A few weeks ago she came to Meyerstown to attend, the funeral . of her step-sister Miss Mosser, who died in one of the Ha-waiian islands. Mrs. Sarah M. Beckler today is at-tending the funeral of Mr. Clarence Lenher at Mechanicsburg, Cumberland county. He was a son of the late Dr. Lenher and a stepson of the late Mrs. Susan Lenher, the latter having been a native of Warwick township. Chester Ritchie made a trip to Ash-land, Schuylkill county, in one day last week on a motorcycle, which he deliver-ed to his brother Lloyd. He experienced some rough roads and walked quite a few miles where the descends were too slippery on account of snow and ice. Champion Was a Member of Local Gunning Club Recently Mrs. L. C. Voge!, of Detroit, Mich., who is one of the best wing and target shots in the feminine ranks in the world, won the gold medal emblematic of the women's championship at targets at the Sportsmen's Show in New York city with a score of 45 out of 50. Mrs. Vogel has held this title for several years. Mrs. Vogel was Miss Anna M. Reiker, of Lancaster, before marriage. On several occasions she shot at targets at this place, and at one time was a member of the Pastime Gunning Club, which has its traps on the local base ball diamond. Her best record here was the breaking of 17 out of 25 targets. This is a very good record, particularly at the local traps, which, owing to the background, make shooting unusually difficult. 'LITITZ NIGHT" AT STOUGH REVIVAL More Than 500 Persons from This Place Attended the Evangelistic Services at Lancaster Last Evening Wednesday night was "Lititz night" at the Stough tabernacle on East Chest-nut street, Lancaster. The announce-ment that special accommodations would be made for the persons of this place was made in the churches on Sun-day and at once met with the approval of many. During the days intervening until Wednesday more and more persons expressed their desire to hear the re-vival and sure enough, when Wednesday evening arrived more than 500 of our citizens of all ages and denominations were "on deck" to board special trolley cars. The majority of the special cars left here about 5.50. When they reach-ed Chestnut and Duke streets the pas-sengers dismounted from the cars and1 headed by the Lutz family band, march-ed to the tabernacle in a body. The members of the Moravian church who arrived about a half-hour later had a standard bearer in the lead, with a banner which ¡jad the Words "Lititz" and "We Seek to Serve" on it. As the Lititz folks entered the taber-nacle they were greeted with applause from the thousands who were already in the building. Prof. Spooner, who conducts the choir of more than a thou-sand persons, had composed a chorus about the Lititzites, which was render-ed by the choir and made a big hit. He also inquired whether the delegation had brought bretzels along and thereupon one of our citizens seated about 50 feet away from the platform tossed a bretzel at the choir leader, who made a great one-hand catch of the twist. beTahueti fusil nagnind gi s owf ortthhe a chsopierc iaisl tirnipd eetdo tLioannsc ahsatde r bteoe nh earer.n deArefdte r tsheev ecroall lescetlieocn- 7w0a0s0 loirf temd oraen d ptehoep len opisree semnatd ea sb y thtehye drersoepmpebdl etdh eai rs hcoowinesr . inDtor . tShteo utginh sptlaatteeds tchoallte cstoiomne polnaet ed raonpdp ehde pa rebsreenttzeedl tinh ist hteo aL uRtze abdainndg wneaws scpaallpeedr omn atnh en easrt abgye.
