Coming Fruit Crop Damaged
Look for a short crop of cherries,
say experts who examined the blos-soms.
The freezing weather and snow
of last week also damaged the com-ing
apple crop. The damage was
spotty, according to locations of or-chards
and even trees of the same
variety in the same orchard were not
uniformly damaged. Staymans were
hard hit, while some other varieties
should bear a full crop, the damage
being just sufficient to properly thin
themi.

Learning to drive an auto-mobile!
Of the thousands of
drivers on the road all had to
learn to drive at the start.
Some learn readily while others
run thru the rear end of the
garage, knock down a telephone
pole or two or some such thing
before they become the master.
At first one has the feeling
that the "brute" has to be tam-ed
and it's a question whether
it can be done. Even a little
car seems to have the size and
strength of a locomotive when
seated at the wheel for the first
time. With the instructor sit-ting
alongside and straighten-ing
out the wheel now and then
to prevent running through
a fence, the novice wonders how
the others ever learned. Then
a machine comes dashing along
toward you, Wow! You get
past without a head-on collision
but you start thinking that you
probably made a mistake in
buying a car and you don't care
for it as much as you thought
in the beginning.
"Now," says the instructor,
"show me how to go to second."
You look down and he says,
"Watch your wheel, there!"
Second, where the Sam Hill is
it. He might as well ask you to
point out somie star in the sky.
You imagine the instructor
thinks you are a dumbbell. Fin-ally
he takes your hand and
guides it, while he says you are
doing fine. Next you stall the
engine and you feel like kicking
yourself;
The lesson over you go home
and think about it in bed. Your
personal vanity is badly wound-ed.
Next day you observe the pro-cession
of drivers on the street.
All seem to do it without even
thinking. You see women at the
wheel and some fellows who
never seemed to be able to learn
anything else.
The second lesson goes a little
better. The instructor kids you
along and tells you how well
you are doing and in a lesson or
two you will be ready for an ex-amination,
but you notice he
keeps watching every little
movement you make. He's not
taking chances.
"Do you know what you didn't
do?" the man at your side asks.
There might have been a thou-sand
things, as far as you are
concerned. "You forgot to blow
your horn, and don't forget to
stick out your arm when you
turn again." It's a relieved feel-ing
as you step out of the car
from lesson No. 2.
Eventually your nerve and
egotism returns. You're going
to learn to run the old buss or
bust. So it goes. You've had
your initiation.
Weelock, former Carlisle In-dian
football star and now a
successful leader of an Indian
band, is a linotype operator on
a Philadelphia paper. Years
ago, he related recently, he
played at Lititz with the Car-lisle
Indian band on July 4,
when his brother was leader.
Last summer his band appear-ed
at the Stevens, Lancaster
County, firemen's carnival and
played at the Sesqui-Centennial
in Philadelphia. Weelock played
his last football on the Camp
Mead team during the war. He
is a powerfully built man.
Warwick House" Sale Well At-tended
There was an unusally large am-ount
of things disposed of at the War-wick
House sale on Saturday. A hun-dred
and fifty pigs brought from $1.80
to $12.35 each; home-cured ham, 26
cents a pound; bologna, 30 cents a
pound; oranges, 45 cents each; ban-anas,
85 cents to $1.30 a bunch; 450
bushel of potatoes, 35 cents to $1.25
a bushel; sewing machine, $7.25; cig-ars,
$1 to $1.60 a box; gas engine, $16.
Trip to Mississippi,
Back in 15 Days
Started on Foot and Was Picked
Up By Autos
In fifteen days Willis Longeneck-er,
18, made a trip to Cornith, Miss.,
and back to Lititz, by getting lifts
from automoibilists. He passed thru
nine States, going in somewhat of a
circuitous route, and was as far north
as Detroit, Mich.
Leaving Lititz on April 9, he reach-ed
Cornith, Miss., in six days. There
he spent a day with his uncle who
took him to see Muscle Shoals, and he
sent post cards home to his friends,
to show that he had reached his des-tination.
The return trip required nine days,
arriving at Lititz on Monday night.
He rode in various kinds of machines,
from a cattle truck to a Stutz. On
one occasion the driver of a tourist
¡bus stopped and gave him a lift. He
slept at Y. M. C. A. quarters when
possible and at hotels.
He is a member of the Lititz Boy
Scouts and wore a scout uniform. On
his knapsack were the words, "Going
To Mississippi."
In the south he saw chain gangs of
convicts at work on the road. An-other
unusual thing was that auto-mobile
drivers through the south had
revolvers strapped to their side.
Driving Autos For 28 Years
Howard Evans, with a record of
twenty-eight years at the wheel, is
surpassed by only two others in the
County as a driver of automobiles.
He laughs about the early days, when
he wore leather gloves reaching to
the elbow, goggles, large English cap
and duster, no matter haw warm the
weather. There were few gas sta-tions,
and running out of gas was a
Serious affair, causing many miles of
hiking. All teams on the road were
approached cautiously, and if the
horse showed signs of alarm, it was
the chauffeur's job to lead the ani-mal
past the car.
Youngsters Stole Car
Two boys, 9 and 11 years old, re-spectively,
took an automobile out of
a shed in town without permission
and apparently were having a good
time running it in the alley until
Policeman Kreider made an appear-ance.
They were taken to the owner
of the car and given a good lecture
and warned what the consequences
would be if they repeated the offense.
Luckily they did not know much
about gear shifts and ran the car on
second.
Firemen Accepted Invitation to
Meet at Lititz
A delegation from the Lititz Fire
Company No. 1, headed by their chief,
Emory P. Wagner, attended the
Southeastern Penna. Firemen's As-sociation
meeting at Steelton last
Thurday evening, and invited the as-sociation
to hold their next quarterly
meeting in Lititz on July 19. The in-vitation
was accepted with enthusi-asm.
It represents six counties, Ad-ams,
Cumberland, Dauphin, York,
Lancaster and Lebanon.
Expert Horsewoman Here From
The West
Mrs. Mentzer and daughter, Mary,
of Wisconsin, are visiting Mr. and Mrs.
Ira Good. Mrs. Mentzer's husband
is in southern Texas, where he owns
an irrigated farm and the family ex-pect
to join him shortly. The daugh-ter
is an expert horsewoman, having
rode since six years of age. While
here she rides horseback at every op-portunity
and the way she handles a
horse is a surprise to Lititz persons
who have seen her.
Will Sell Leaf Tobacco
Archie Rosenberg has gone on the
road to sell leaf tobacco for Walter
Bare. He will cover the^greater part
of the State and will go äs far south
as Baltimore. He knows tobacco
from the ground ujp. He will travel
by automobile.
Landed 16-Inch Trout
Miss Sara Muth landed a sixteen-inch
brook trout last week. It was one
that old and experienced fishermen
had Whipped the stream for all of
last season, but the prize was destined
to come to Lititz, caught by a novice
in the sport.
Letter From Soldier In Hawaiian
Islands
Tc the Lititz Record:
I am writing you just a line or two
on the life of a soldier in the Hawai-ian
Islands. <
A soldier over here has easy life
compared to the soldier in the States.
We have every Wednesday and Satur-day
afternoon to ourselves. He may
go to the Island of Hawaii and see the
old Volcanic formations and also the
\ olcano that is active all the time for
a very smiall amount ocf money. He has
ten days in which to enjoy all these
beautiful sights and take snaps of
them so he can send some of them
back to his friends.
Soldiers rise at 5:30 A. M. and
stand Reville then he makes up his
bunk and washes himself, then his
breakfast is ready for him. After
that he polices up' the barracks and
Lattery street. Then he has time to
think of shining his shoes and collar
ornaments and his belt buckel for first
drill and calisthenics. Then he goes
to school for a couple of hours and
studies the things he should know for
his detail. Then he puts on his fati-gue
clothes and goes to the Motor
t'heds for the care of the Vehicles and
around the sheds, which must be kept
very clean at all times as the Col-onel
may inspect at any time he so
desires. Then there are some night
problems which are all right except
for the mosquitoes and the ants,
which you make friends with very
quickly as it is neccessary for your
own benefit and comfort. The big-gest
maneuvers of any history are
yet to come this May and June. The
Army and Navy1 are to have a battle,
the Navy is going to try and take the
island and the Armiy says that they
can't so it looks like a very interest-ing
fight ¡ahead.

A Rough Ocean Trip
Theodore B. Bush, of Honolulu, T.

"Was at Hilo and spent the night at
the Volcano House. The next day
was rainy and foggy, and did not see
any volcanic pit, which is what the
volcano is at present, no activity
whatsoever. The trip back was the
roughest I have ever experienced. In
the dining room, I'll gamble, there
were more dishes on the floor than on
the table. Several people had their
meals fall on their laps. I almost took
a header across the dining room.
