Frank Rader Landed Bass Weiging
4 Pounds 7 Ounces
Frank Rader, veteran hunter and
fisherman of this place, landed what is
probably the biggest bass taken from
a local stream. The fish, caught at
Rudy's dam on Monday, measured
nineteen inches in length and weighed
four pounds and seven ounces. He
brought it home alive and placed it in
a wash kettle at the cigar store so
that his friends could see it.
The fish was caught in shallow
water, on a spinner. The line was be-ing
pulled in and was six feet from
shore when Mr. Rader saw the fish
coming for the bait. He pulled and
although the tackling broke the fish
was landed on the bank, but "was loose
from the line. The fisherman made a
dive, landing with his back on top of
the fish. He then grabbed it by the
gills.
Rudy's dam was originally stocked.
It seems to be a good place for bass,
with the springs of fresh water keep-ing
the water fresh and the almost
endless amount of bait there furnishes
a fine food supply. The bass are wary
and while there are many of them in
the dam few have been caught.
•Honored a Former Employee
Last Saturday Mr. and Mrs. David
H. Snavely, accompanied by Amos
Hershey, Mrs. Lemon Neidermyer and
J. F. Buch autoed to Salem, N. J.,
where they were guests of Mr. Sam-uel
Weicke! and family and spent
about four hours most pleasantly.
Mr. Weickel was an employee on
Mr. Snavely's mill on the Hammer
creek north of Lexington, for several
years, up to 1906, when he launched
out for himself and bought a flour
mill in Salem and later another m Ox-ford,
Chester county, both of which he
is now operating and has been most
successful in his business. '
The visitors were most hospitably
entertained by the Weickel family,
which is a real interesting family of
seven sons and three daughters, seven
or eight of whom are at home making
themselves useful in business and
household affairs. They surely know
how to make their guests feel welcome
in genuine western hospitable manner.,
which knows no bounds and makes you
feel like going there soon again.
The visitors made the trip in one
day by starting early in the morning,
going via Downingtown, West Ches-ter,
Wilmington, Del., where they
crossed the big Delaware river on a
ferry boat, whicli required 35 minutes.
Mr. Snavely, who owns and furnish-ed
the auto, was at the steering wheel
and is able to handle the machine as
well as he could years ago, notwith-standing
the 84 years of life heaped
upon him. After their return home
all expressed the hope that they could
repeat the journey to Salem.
Local Fire Companies' Assessments
The Agricultural Fire insurance Co.
has levied an annual assessment of
$2.25 per thousand insurance, which is
25 cents more than a year ago, on ac-count
of the unusual number of fires.
The Northern Mutual Company has
set the assessment at 3%% on the
premium note, the same rate as for
the past three years.
The assessment of the Penn Town-ship
Mutual Association is $3.25 on a
thousand dollars and %Vzc/c on the pre-mium
note.

of the Rothsville team.

Wife of Moravian Pastor Celebrated
50th Birthday Anniversary
Mrs. E. S. Crosland's fiftieth birth-day
occurred on Tuesday. She had
planned to spend the day quietly with
her family but her friends decided not
to let the day slip by unnoticed.
Early in the morning she was much
surprised when she received various
bouquets of flowers and a fifty dollar
bill as well as other gifts. A number
of her friends called on her and en-joyed
her hospitality. At the close of
the day the Moravian trombone choir
serenaded her and helped to make the
occasion a memorable day.
Big Drive for M«mbership
The Sabbath School Association
met Monday evening in the United
Evangelical S. S. room, with all the
schools of the town represented. A
big drive for new members in the Sun-day
Schools will be launched Sunday,
when 200 persons will start out from
the meeting place in the Moravian S.
S. chapel, to make a thorough can-vass
of the town.
At the meeting on Tuesday Mr. W.
H. Buch gave a welcome address and
Rev. FlecJv spoke on co-operation.
PICKINGS
How some people do squeal
when told the truth; but when
it's some one else they sit and
laugh. In other words it de-pends
on whose ox is gored,
and the "Record" Pickings
prove this over and over
again.
Some people, in fact most
here in the® east, should go
west and learn what real hos-pitality
is. We think we do
know, but the western people
can teach us a whole lot
more.
The San Domingo creek
which , passes by the eastern
end of town is entirely dry,
due to the prolonged and al-most
rainless summer. Why
there is not even a chance to
catch bait for the many fish-ermen
in this vicinity.
A Lititz young man can be
seen at 5 bells almost every
morning riding his bicycle to
a nearby dam, where he
spends a short time fishing
and is back in town for work
at 7:30. Some fellows have
a strange idea of fun to our •
way of thinking.
At 1 o'clock in the morning
an Orange street man imag-ined
he saw someone standing
in the alley close to his house.
He watched but the supposed
man never moved. Then he
enlisted the aid of a young
man who was on his way
home. "Who's there," he
shouted. No answer, only a
tapping, as if a confederate
was being warned. Then
they went for the town po-liceman,
who joined their
forces. The policeman inves-tigated.
He too, thought it
was a man. After laying
plans how to capture him, a
flashlight was turned on.
There before them stood a
horse. The tapping was
nothing more than the ani-mal's
pawing.

36 feet, was erected on the founda-tion
of the old and used by the Re-formed

was laid on July 21, 1912.
WOMAN HURT IN
AUTO ACCIDENT
Mrs. Henry Shenk T h r o w n Out of Ma-chine
and L a n d e d on Head
Mrs. Heury H. Shenk of South Bio id
street, was injured Tuesday evening
when an auto driven by her husband
moved backward down an embank-ment
at the first hill at Kissel Hill on
the way home from Lancaster at 10:30
o'clock.
Something seemed to snap in the ma-chine
as they were ascending the hill
and Mrs. Shenk stood, up. The car
started to go backward, turning to the
side of the road, breaking the f®ice
and going down the embankment on
the left hand side.
Mrs. Shenk was thrown out the car,
landing on her head. The machine did
not upset. Mrs. Shenk was picked up
unconscious and brought to her home
in another machine. She regained
consciousness in the morning. She is
badly cut around the neck and there is
a probability that her skull is frac-tured.
