within two weeks, and will also serve
regular meals.
T. Stevens Grosh, tax collector at
this piace, communicated with the
authorities at Harrisburg, and receiv-ed
the information that women must
pay taxes.
A near-by farmer trapped upwards
of 1000 moths in his . tobacco fields,
thereby preventing many worm-eaten
leaves of the weed, as the moths breed
the worms which are so destructive.
Two corn roasts were held in the
Spring Grounds last week. By an-other
summer, when this feature be-comes
aJ -'rrtised, it is expected it
will be;ome quite the vogue.
Lloyd Ober of Kissel Hill was
operated upon for appendicitis at the
Lancaster General Hospital last week.
He is a son òf Mrs. Catherine Ober
and is employed at the Eby shoe fac-tory.
Elmer Wendling, of Pine Hill, pick-ed
an almost perfect peach on his
premises. It was fourteen inches in
circumference and' weighed fourteen
and three-fourth ounces. It was beau-tiful
to look at with its bright red
"cheek" and smooth shell, with no
sign of scab or other blemishes.
•Tohn Hess, a big truck grower near
here, made 1000 gallons of sauer
kraut recently. He operates the cab-bage
cutter by power. He says there
is a good demand for kraut at the
present time. The cabbage planted in
the middle of the season did well but
the late cabbage is poor.
Lititz coal dealers expect ship-ments
of black diamonds by the end
of this week, but do not know what
sizes will be consigned to them, as
they must take what they can get.
Both yards are entirely out of coal.
A commotion was heard in the
chicken yard of Jacob Bomberger's
home on Lincoln avenue at 2 o'clock
Wednesday morning. Neighbors
were awakened by the noise but no
one was seen and no chickens were
missed. This is the second time with-in
three weeks that the chickens were
disturbed.
A. W. Miller sold tha Park View
Hotel, opposite the Spring Grounds,
yesterday, to Abraham Lewitas, of
Lancaster. The new owner will take
possession October 2. He will reno-vate
the entire interior and equip it

to give Lititz an up-to-date
and first-class hotel. A restaurant
will be opened in the building.
Miss Emily J. Eschbach, located at
Woodstock, 111,, writes: "I feel quite
lost without the good, old home paper,
having missed several issues on our
return from the camp up in Michigan.
The weather up there is delightful,
but since our. return to Illinois have
had exceptionally hot weather." Miss
Eschbach is a sister to H. L. Eschbach
of this place.
The Lititz Fire Company will par-ade
at Denver this Saturday, accom-panied
by the Manheim band. The
Lititz boys had not intended' going, in
order to get the field ready for the
Lititz festival, the following Satur-day,
but plans were cnanged lately so
that no offense could be taken by our
neighboring borough, from the fact
that they had taken part in all thè
other parades in the county.

MEN WHO FOUGHT
WITH DEWEY LIVED
EIGHT MILES APART
Wayne Longenecker Learned About
Former Sailor on His Ship When
Account of Death Appeared
Thomas West died at Lancaster
last Friday night, where he lived re-tired,
after spending thirty years in
the Marine service. Wayne Longe-necker,
now in the restaurant busi-ness
at this place, knew Thomas West
when they were sailors on Dewey's
battleship, the Olympia, both taking
part in the battle at Manilla Bay.
West spent three years on the ship in
the time the Lititz man was aboard.
They often talked about their home
county and' once, when the local man
came home on a furlough, he called
on West's mother, then living in Lan-caster,
by request of the son. "I'm
sorry," said Mr. Longenecker, "that
I didn't know he was back in Lancas-ter."
West probably forgot that his
former shipmate came from Lititz or
deferred his visit.
West was 50 years old, and since
his enlistment at the age of twenty
he had seen service in all parts of
the world. He traveled extensively
through Panama, Cuba, Mexico, the
Holy Land and the Far Eastern coun-tries,
but was assigned to home ser-vice
during the World War. Major
General Lejeune had commended him
for his long and faithful service.
Shortly after, his discharge he came
to Lancaster to live, so as, to be near
his only living relative, Mr. S. S.
Dorwart.
»On Sunday Mr. Longenecker took
a trip to the Philadelphia navy yards,
to show his family the old Olympia.
He said he did not require a guide to
find his way around the ship. ,
Lititz Firemen Well Honored at
Columbia
. Columbia famed far and wide for
day afternoon staged one of the
largest and most magnificent fire-men's
parade unequalled in Lancaster
county.
In addition to the splendid appara-tus,
the visiting companies were uni-formed,
some adhering to the old-time
red shirts, while others wore the
regulation uniform of the city fire
departments. One of the most strik-ing
uniforms was that worn by the
Lititz fire company. Each man was
attired in white trousers, light blue
shirt, blue roll leggings and white
hats. The marshal and his assis-tants
were attired in all white flannel.
Fifteen fire companies were in line
from all over the county.
There were more bands and better
band's in line than ever seen or heard
in Columbia at one time. One band
in particular that caught the ears of
the crowd was the Carnarvon band of
Churchtown. All the bands rendered
sweet music for the marchers.

There is no fear of Lititz
running short of water, says
an observer, unless the de-mend
is more than tripled.
The water for Lititz is pump-ed
during an eight-hour per-iod.
By pumping during the
remaining sixteen hours the'
increase will be in propor-tion.
However, just how it
will effect the Springs is not
known. Some persons be-lieve
it taps a souce not
connected with the springs,
but underground streams
running north and south.
Say what you will, it can-not
be said that the Lititz
churches are depleted on ac-count
of Sabbath desecration.
The services are as well at-tended
these pretty Sundays
as they are in the winter
time, when comparatively
few people are out automo-biling
for pleasure. The op-posite
may be true in the
cities but not in Lititz.
A newly-painted church
edifice attracts myriads of
flies and it is trying indeed
to listen to a sermon and at
the same time be annoyed by
the pesty insects, especially
if you are bald-headed.
Lieut. Belvm W. Maynard,
known as "the flying par-son,"
was killed while flying
at the Rutland Fair, Vt., Fri-day.
Many persons here will-re-member
Lieut. B. W. May-nard
who spoke at the
chautauqua at Lititz in the
summer of 1920. He was
the winner in thè transcon-tinental
aeroplane race from
New York to San Francisco
in 1919.
A stout man from the East
End fell in the Conestoga
while fishing on Saturday.
His line caught in overhang-ing
limbs and he crawled out
in the tree. One mistep and
he landed in water almost to
his neck. His feelings were
relieved by catching two
bass.
Interest Shown in New Industry That
May Locate Here
Representatives of the Franklin
Paper Bag Co., of Philadelphia, were
in town this week, relative to locating
here. A number of local business
men are interested and will go to
Philadelphia to inspect the plant,
now conducted at that place.
Rothsville will hold a fire com-pany
festival on Saturday, October
7.

If I Were Building a School
If I were building a school just as
I wanted it I would secure my play-ground
first. I -yould get as much
land as I could for it and as good an
equipment as possible. . After that
I'd give my attention to the school
building. I'd be safe because every-body
knows how to make a school-house,
but very few people understand
about the playground.
They think it is a place where , chil-dren
just play, and why concern one-self
and spend money just for that—
such a futile thing as children's play,?
Then never give it another thought.
When you persist they say:
"Yes, yes. Of course, I know. You
have to have toilets and all that.
We'll see that you get them. When
we get through with the school build-ing
we'll let you have the space that
is felt."
And there isn't any space, and they
shrug their shoulders and say, "What
of it? This isn't the place to play.
It's the place where children come to
work at their lessons. You tend to
that and they'll get enough play on
the streets and at home."
So when I build the school that I
want I shall start with the ''play-ground,
because I, being a teacher;
know that children learn more by
playing ;freely than they do by study-ing
under pressure.
I believe that clear ideas come only
when they are borne along by hands
and feet and ears and eyes and noses
and voices. I believe that the more
action a child gets into his day the
better educated child he is that day.
His action lies in his own world,
which is a play world. Here he plans
and carries out his plans, works with
other children or by himself. He can
train his legs on the track, his arms
on the field and the court. '
I want to have playrooms, too,
where the child can have things he
needs to play with, and I want a shop
with tools where he can mend the
things he breaks. If a wheel comes
off a skate he can go into this place
and mend it. If he .needs a wagon he
can make it. That is play for a child.
The shop would be a crude plaee,
because children make crude things
when-they, begin. When they want
to screw on a nut they don't want to
be bothered with technique. But
when they find that the nut won't
stay on they will want to know what
to do to make it stay, and they will
ask for and be given the technique in
the finely equipped shop that the peo-ple
who built the school put there.
You see, the children ' won't. have
much use for the fine school equip-ment
unless it is pointed by a better
play equipment. For this is the law
of childhood—the play of today be-comes
the work of tomorrow. If you
are really in earnest about that to-morrow's
work-you, would better help
people like me to build playgrounds.
I wrote all this because I passed a
new school one. day and there was no
playground. Not one bit.—Philadel-phia

BRICK WALL COLLAPSED
IN HARRIS BUILDING
Druggist Moyer Lost $500 in Drugs
The collapse of a brick wall on the
east side in the rear part of Dr. L. N.
Moyer's drug store on Friday morn-ing
caused considerable financial loss
and several workmen had close es-capes
with their lives. Dr. Moyer
was in the rear of his store when he
heard a strange noise and saw the
wall moving slowly outward. He
shouted to the stone masons, who
were working underneath it, to get
away. A wagon, loaded with refuse,
had just been taken away before the
will fell.
It left a gap in the building twenty
feet long and extending from the roof
to the foundation. It had been sup-ported
by wooden braces but most of
these were removed by9the masons in
order to build a stone foundation. A
cellar is being built in the adjoining
building which is being altered for a
store room. These two properties are
owned by J. C. Harris of Ephrata.
The floors and roofs sagged several
feet after the accident, and had to be
propped. Canvass has been put over
the® opening until repairs are made.
Drugs amounting to $500 which had
been on shelves, fell with the bricks.
It took two days to clean away the
debris. The owner of the building
was near when the accident occurred.
Since the building operations have
been going on there have been several
similar occurences of walls falling
over.
TITION FOR
RECESS FOR ALL

More Than 300 Citizens Signed
Petition
George Leicey Had Fine Trip to
Canada
Mr. George Leicey of Brownstown,
was a visitor in town on Wednesday,
recently having returned.- from an
eleven day trip to Canada, with 228
other representatives of the New
York Life Insurance Company. They
were known as the $200,000 club, each
having sold that much and more in-surance
during the year. Mr. Leicey
said he enjoyed every minute of the
trip. After stopping off at Niagara
Falls, where he was a guest of Sam-uel
Brown, formerly of Brownstown,
he proceeded to Montreal, where the
delegates met and' went by boat up
the Saginaw River. He also made
the trip along the Thousand Islands,
the boat at one place going thru the
rapids at the rate of three miles in
three minutes. He . traveled 1000
miles by rail and 800 miles by boat.
CAROLINE SEABER
90 YEARS OLD
Friends Remember Birthday of Oldest
Woman in Town
Miss Caroline Seaber, a boarder at
the Moravian Home, was ninety years
old on Sunday. She is the oldest
person in Lititz.
She has been a life-long member of
the Moravian church and most faith-ful
attendant at all services.
In honor of the event the Sunday
School sang a birthday hymn for her,
Sunday morning. She attended the
morning services and afterwards en-joyed
a special dinner of chicken, ice
cream and other good things at the
Home, where she has lived for ten
years, going there in March, 1912.
She had a birthday supper at the
home of her nephew, Mr. Nathaniel
Seaber, which she enjoyed very much.
She was delighted to. see her many
callers and was the recipient of many
flowers, money, jelly, fruit and cards
from her many friends.
REP. DIEHM A SUPPORTER
Three hundred of the best
citizens of the town signed
a petition circulated by' B. F. Lutz
asking that all the children of the
grade schools be given recess
periods. When Mr. Lutz learned,
after a personal interview with
several of the directors, that only
children in the first four grades
will be given recess periods, up
to about nine year's of age, he got
busy with a petition. Among the
signers who want to see a square
deal for ¿ill the children is Repre-sentative
G. G. Diehm.
The law clearly states that all
children, from 6. to 21 years of
age, must be left on the play-grounds.
Mr. Lutz says there will be no
let-up until the law is carried out.
Mr. Lutz secured the signa-tures
in several days and the list
is growing rapidly. "I find that
the people are back of me. To
be exact, only twenty-five out of
325 interviewed were unfavor-able."
The trbuble started last year,
and when board decided to
secure a new principal, it was
believed that everything would be
"patched up."
It is believed that the pressure
brought to bear on the issue will
have its effect, arid within two
weeks there will be a change.

8 Mr. Lutz has handed in the follow-ing
communication as to why he
favors the childrerf's cause:
Our children are once more at their
school desks trying to do all that we
expect of them. A 'play ground has
been provided for them. Yet- chil-dren
from the ages of nine years and
up, or in other words the fifth grade
and up, are denied to enjoy recess
periods. During these warm days
these little folks and older ones are
compelled to remain in the school
house.
I thank the school board th^t the
very little ones can get out. A visi-tor
to the school, and signer of the
petition, told me when they were
marched from their rooms into the
hall for a drink of water, they showed
no signs of being the happy boys and
girls one would expect to see. Cer-tainly
they would' have felt better if*
they could have spent fifteen minutes
out of doors than being marched for
water.-
A girl ten years old said to me she
can hardly wait until she can enjoy
recess periods o 3 the play grounds.
They are putting up such nice things
there. When I told her she would
not be allowed to use it, her eyes fill-ed
with tears. To be liberal minded,
one must get the child's viewpoint.
I had a talk with one of the direc-tors
about this matter.. He told me
the reason for this ruling is that they
are not supposed to be out. I asked
him again for some intelligent
answer, but he repeated the same
thing. "But when the grounds are
fully completed, will the conditions
change?" He answered, "they are
not supposed to be, out."
Therefore I circulated a petition,
asking that all grades be allowed
recess periods. No other course was
left open to me if I wanted to help
the children. Thè law plainly states
that all children from ,6 to 21 years
of age must be allowed on the play
grounds.
Everywhere I go parents tell me,
"Our children should be out these fine
days." As I said in previous articles,
plans can be mapped out so that all
can have a recess period.
There are already three hundred
signers to the petition, favoring re-cess
for all the grades. I ask the
school board to call a public meeting
on Thursday evening, Sept. 21, for
the purpose of hearing what the tax
payers have to say. When it was de-sirous
to build' a new school house, a
public meeting was called. Why not
for this, if you want to be ..fair?
The directors are our pujblic ' servants.
Should not the people vho pay the
money, for the schools have.a voice in
something concerning their'children ?
It is impossible for me to see all
the taxpayers and parents of the
seven hundred children. Anyone who
wants to sign this petition can notify
me and I will call—men as well as,
women, B. F. LUTZ.
Aaron Weidman, a housepainter
who lived at Brickerviile, was the
victim of the high tension wire of the
Ephrata-Lebanon trolley line, while
at work on the roof of the house of
the house of John Lane at Clay early
Monday morning.
Weidman had taken the contract to
paint1 the Lane home and started the
job Monday morning. Procuring his
long ladders he \Vent to the roof of'
the building, over which is suspended
the high tension wire a few feet from
the roof. It is surmised that while
fastening the hooks and' arising from
that position he came in contact with
the wire directly across thfe side of his
neck. The heavily charged wire burn-ed
its way almost through the neck.
The parting of the wire permitted
the man's body to fall to the roof.
He was instantly killed, • but there
were none who witnessed the tragedy.
His dead body ivas discovered a short
time after death had occurred.
The painters went to the roof and
found the body and blood running
toward the spouting. The heavy wire
which had burned through, was trail-ing
across the roof. The men brought
the unfortunate man's body to the
ground. Death had been instantan-eoijs.
Dr. Long;, of Brickerviile, was sum-moned
but his services were unneces-sary.
The body was removed to his
home, but later taken to Mellinger's
undertaking parlor at Denver, where
it will be prepared for burial and
brought to Brickerviile.
He was a member ^ of the Emman-uel
Lutheran church fof forty-six
years, and at the time 'of his death
held an officg in the church.
Mr. Weidman was 62 years of age
and was widely known in his com-munity.
He is survived by his wife
and one daughter, Alice, living at
home.
Funeral services will be held on
Thursday morning at 9:30 o'clock at
the home, with further services in the
Brickerviile Emmanuel Lutheran
church. Rev. F. A. Weicksel and
Rev. M. Gaylord will be in charge of
the services. Interment will be made
in the Zion cemetery, Lincoln.

BAND CONCERT
BIGGEST THING IN TOWN
SINCE THE FOURTH
Frank Burkholder Says It Was Good
Advertising and Public Was
Pleased
The street along Frank Burkhold-er's
building was lined with autos and
the pavements were thick with per-sons
who were attracted by the con-cert
by the Lititz band on Saturday
evening. The band occupied a place
on the balcony of the Burkholder
building along Main street and the
wall provided good carrying power
for the music. The leader, Harry
Kepple, had his musicians in prime
condition and the audience enjoyed
every selection.
Mr. Burkholder and assistants were
kept busy explaining the merits of
the variouss makes of automobiles
he handles, as well as electric wash-ers
and other things. The idea of
securing a band individually was a.
business venture tried out for the
first time in the history of the town,
not only advertising Mr. Burkholder's
business but was, a boost for the town
in general. It is Mr. Burkholder's
idea that if the townsmen would ex-pand
their business they must offer
special inducements to draw people
here.
