STRAWBERRIES RIPE IN NEW
YORK STATE
Mr. and Mrs. Charles M. Bare and
Mrs. Ellen Schnerer and daughter,
Ada, spent the past week visiting at
Watkins Glen, Niagara Falls and the
Delaware Water Gap. The distance
covered was between eleven and
twelve hundred miles and the trip
proved to be very interesting.
In New York State the farmers are
just picking their crop of sour cher-ries
and there are signs—"Strawber-ries
For Sale"—still to be seen at
some of the farms. The buckwheat,
some fields containing as high as
twenty-five to thirty acres, is in full
bloom, and presents a very pleasant
sight. Apples, also are very plenti-ful
and the trees in the large orchards
are literally bent to the ground un-der
the weight of the immense crop
of fruit. /

Went To Their Farms When
A Youth In Lititz
MEMORIES !
Friends:
A woman was once boasting- of her
wonderful memory. "But there are
three things I can't remember," she
exclaimed! "I can't remember
names, I can't remember faces, and
J can't remember what the third thing
is I can't remember."
Now I am sure, dear friends, you
will agree with me that I remember
the Bambergers, when you hear these
few recollections of my childhood at
Lititz. /
"The Bamberger's as I Knew Them"
This is my subject at your reunion
today, August 18, 1926. I go back
to the years 1850-1855. In the latter
year we moved to Bethlehem, on ac-count
of my father's broken down
health. He had been principal of
Linden Hall Seminary for seventeen
years.
- My good, faithful friend, Henry H.
Bamberger, has asked me to'jot down
some c-f my recollections, just as they
occur to me. He has kindly inv-'te I
me to recall them to you on this af-ternoon
at the Lititz Springs, where
I spent many happy hours with my
parents and brothers and sister.
In June, 1849, I started, with my
devoted nurse, Sally Rudy, later Mrs.
Alexander Sturgis, by carriage, for
Lebanon, to visit her niece and fam-ily.
Then we continued our trip by
fou.r-horse stages, to Reading,
Bethlehem and Nazareth, where all
the bakers were Rauchs and all the.
Rauchs were her nephews. I merely
state this as I have quite a vivid im-pression
of this summer. I am sure
I have little or none of the Bamber-gers
at that time—that year. Now
from 1850 I remember them.
The following years 'til 1855, I dis-tinctly
and pleasantly remember
them. Both Christian and Jacoo
Bamberger frequently came to "Lin-den
Hall" with butter, eggs, home-made
soap, not to forget the splen-did
applebutter—have never tasted
any since, like it—p,r anything else
they knew would be needed at the
school. Everything they brought
was taken to the basement to Mrs.
Frances Rauch, the efficient house-keeper
in those days. Then they
would come to the office, where my
father gladly paid them and would
have quite a chat with them about

PROF. DEMMY AND FAMILY
HOME AFTER AN . v
ENJOYABLE VACATION
Prof, and Mrs. M. C. Demmy and
daughter Arline returned home after
spending ten days at Promise Land,
in the Pocono Mountains. They spent
most of the time fishing and werevsuc-cesful
in catching quite a number of
pickerel, yellow perch, as well as sun-fish
and catfish. Prof Demmy brot
home two rare specimens of sundew.
These are plants that have a viscid
liquid on their leaves by which insects
are caught and utilized by the plant
for food. The plants will be used
in the science department of the high
school.

LOOKING UP HIS ANCESTORS
Mr. John Schrantz, of Stonington,
111., spent several days here for the
purpose of looking up his ancestors,
the Schrantzs and the Hoi is, • who
were his grandparents. Ilis parents
moved from here to Ohio, later to
Illinois. He learned considerable as
he took trips to Kissel Hill, Millway,
the Middle Creek church section and
other places. Mr. Schrantz was rev-el
here previously, although he is
62 years of age.
Jack, a pointer dog owned by
G. G. Diehm, was sent to Lex-ington
to end his old days.
Jack evidently enjoys town life
better than the solitude of the
country and came back. He
was taken to Lexington next
day.
The dog was secured by Mr.
Diehm while on a trip to Flor-ida
some years ago.
He is not a one-man dog and
had the habit of calling around
at many business places and
homes during the day, preferr-ing
to eat out, rather than at
any one place. The dog is un-usually
intelligent and enjoys if
people talk l to him pleasantly.
If they spoke in a scolding
voice he grumbled back at the
speaker.
The dog had the reputation
of being a good hunting dog in
Florida but the climate here,
did not seem to agree with him.
He became blind in one eye and
the other eye is feiling. •
Almost every person who
has traveled has met with some
occurrence bringing out the fact
that the world is small after
all.
While in California this sum-mer
Noah Trimmer engaged in
conversation with a railroad
conductor. The conductor in-formed
him that he originally
came from Marietta, Lancaster
county, and after a little mem-ory
jogging they knew many
persons back home in common.
The conductor then related that
one day on a train he spied his
former lady school teacher with
her husband. He . started his
conversation, not revealing his
identity, saying that one of the
things outstanding in his mem-ory
of boyhood days was , the
lessons learned from his school
teacher. He continued that she
was a fine lady with rare un-derstanding.
Then he gave her
name. Much surprised his
hearer exclaimed that it was
her name before marriage. The
conductor smiled and said he
knew it from the beginning.

Editor Record:
The question as to the correct
spelling of "pretzel" has been
revived again, as you will >see
by the following item publish-ed
in a prominent paper, by a
resident of Harrisburg, Pa.:
"A learned logomachist from
the United States Department
of Agriculture, put one over on:
the Pennsylvania Millers at
Lancaster, when he told them
that "pretzel" was originally a
religious term derived from the
Latin word "pretiola" a reward!
It is strange that none of those
friends of "bretzel", the correct
word, arose to tell his learned
contorter of words that pretzel
is but a change of a "b" to a
"p" in the German word "bretz-el"
which means "cracknel,"
and has for centuries been as-sociated
with the other German
articles called "Bier" now under
neurotic prescriptityi."
I agree with the man from
the Department of Agriculture
and quote Webster's new inter-national
dictionary which says:
"Pretzel (German, pretzel or
bretzel) a kind of brittle, Ger-man
biscuit in the form of a
twisted ring, salted on the sur-face."
The word "cracknel" has two
definitions: (1) "a hard, brit-tle
kind of cake or biscuit; (2)
"Pork fried crisp." Cracknel
is derived from the French word
craqueline. Alexandria, Va.,
has a large pretzel bakery and
they use the ''pretzel'' form in
bold letters on their delivery
trucks.—G.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Birthdays of five Lititz persons oc-curred
on Tuesday: Elam Risser, Mrs.
Charles Bare, Earl Bryan, Mrs. Laura
Leigh and John Earhart. Miss Mab-el
Leib's birthday anniversary occur-red
yesterday.
S. J. Leicey Followed In Car
Next To The Wizard
Observing Hayward Thompson, the
blindfolded wizard, at close view in
his puzzling feats at Lancaster, on
Saturday, S. J. Leicey, of Lititz, stat-ed
to the Record reporter, that he
can only believe that the man has a
wonderful development of the sixth
sense.
Thompson, completely masked with
twelve folds of wrapping, so that
Motorcycle Policeman Kamm, who
tried on the mask, stated, "There is
no fluke about this," drove an auto-mobile,
being the sole occupant in the
car, thru the Lancaster traffic, avoid-ing
other cars and trolleys and obey-ing
all traffic lights.
Mr. Leicey, at the start, was in a
car directly in the rear of Thompson,
later giving his place to a car con-taining
newspaper men.
At Bricker's bakery Mr. Leicey saw
Mr. Thompson place his hand on the
head of a red-headed boy, as he
greeted him with, "Hello, Red." He
told them there were four of Brick-er's
delivery wagons standing there,
in fact, pointing out everything that
a man with unobstructed eyesight
would see.
Mr. Leicey also saw the man do
things at a Lancaster clothing store
that seemed impossible. He called
out the various prices and colors of
clothing. Here he wrote with both
hands simultaneously, spelling his
name from right to left with one
hand and from left to right with the
other hand. He also plays golf and
shoots with a gun blindfolded.
Mr. Thompson gave a talk to the
chiropractors of the county and in
that way Mr. Leicey had an oppor-tunity
to meet the wizard personally
and follow him closely in the tests
of his strange power.
Thompson has an interesting his-tory.
He is an ex-marine. He was
injured in the brain during the World
War and suffered with amnesia, and
was blind for four months. He was
in eighteen hospitals, without relief,
and gives all the credit for his re-covery
to chiropractory, after all oth-er
curative methods failed.
On his own accord he placed a
large display advertisement in the
Lancaster New Era on Monday, cham-pioning
this healing art and asking
for efficient legislation for chiroprac-tors.
This strikes a strange keynote
at a time when the State medical
board is trying to suppress chiroprac-tors
by legislation.
COVERED 9000 MILES ON HONEY-MOON
TRIP
Mr. and Mrs. Morris Trimmer Saw
Sights of the West
Mr. and Mrs. Morris Trimmer ar-rived
home Sunday after a 9000 mile
honey-moon trip by auto, thru the
great open spaces of the west. They
left on July 15th, carrying a camp-ing
outfit and doing their own cook-ing
most of the time.
They reached Portland, then con-tinued
to Mt. Ranier. From there
they continued their journey to Cal-ifornia,
taking in the Yosemite Park,
Los Angeles and Long Beach. In the
southern desert of California, a wind
storm blew shut all traces of the road
and they remained all night, at day-break
getting their bearing again.
They saw the biggest peach orchard
in the world, where Del Monte peaches
are canned. The big English walnut
groves, where the nuts are stamped
with a diamond, was another revela-tion.
They enjoyed the fruit as they
passed along, and especially the seed-less
grapes, which are delicious and
grow on immense bunches. The price
was seven pounds for twenty-five
cents.
They started for home on the Lin-coln
highway, then branched off to
see the north rim of the Grand Can-yon,
also going- to the Bryce Canyon
National Park and on to Salt Lake
City and Denver. As a rule the roads
were good and they had very little
machine trouble.

FREAK DOG AT PENRYN PARK
. A curiosity at Penryn Park is a
pup supposed to be a cross between
a dog and a groundhog. At least
those who have seen it say it is a
most unusual looking animal.
The mother, of the canine family,
is with the offspring. . The dog be-came
wild in the mountains and was
captured in a d%n with the single pup.
