PEOPLE ARE PLEASED
BY NEW MILK SUPPLY
Already the Demand Calls for Two
Thousand Quarts of Mill; and
Cream a Week and- the Total
is Increasing Daily—All
Makes for Health
Hershey is fortunate in having the'
best milk at the lowest prices of any
community in America. Mr. Hershey's
plans for the town looked forward to
this service and recently the arrange-ments
for it were perfected. Selected
herds on the northside farms are now
under the supervision of Elmer Klip-pinger
and the main herd Is at the
Bound Barn.
Milk from these cows has been un-der
the closest examination of the com-pany's
chemist,, and the results are that
in purity, cleanliness and richness the
milk and cream served by the Hershey
Farms now comes up to the standards
of the certified products which sell in
the cities at from two to .three times
the prices charged in Hershey.
The Hershey prices are : milk, 7
cents ; cream, 12 cents. This includes
delivery in the new cap bottles, the
safest of their kind. The old paper ar-rangement
with its hole for the ac-cumulation
of dirt and germs has been
discarded. The cap bottle used by the
Hershey Farms is an all-over covering
that insures absolute protection.
Since the delivery system was start-ed
the trade has rapidly increased un-til
now it amounts to 1,700 quarts of
milk, 100 quarts of cream and 200
quants of skim milk a week. The in-crease
is still going on and many new
customers have been added this week.
The Hershey work for pure milk is
attracting the attention of the exports.
The Bureau of Animal Industry of the
Department of Agrleul turo at Washing-ton
lias sent to the Hershey Farms cow-testing
association books for use in the
Hershey berds. The records will be
kept and will become a part of the
government reports.
In this plan to produce and serve the
best milk the confidence of the public
Is invited. Everything Is open to vis-itors
and (here arc special rooms and
tables for tourists at . the Round Barn,
where they may see the cows, witness
the milk handling and then enjoy the
product, There Is nothing healthier or
more refreshing than n glass of cool ,
sweet milk at the Round Barn,

Delighted Large Audience at
Hershey Central Theater By
a Capital Address
Again the Sunday union services, in
Hersliey Central Theater proved a fine
success. Dr. Green
^
delighted a large
audience that stayed with him to the
¦last word and then ' . paid hhn the
comipliment of hearty applause. For
f February there is a strong list of
lyceum men. The first is D. Lee Fitz-patrick
who will speak on "The Pow-er
of Song" and who will illustrate his
subject by singing song® to sthptw the
beauty of mnisic and the reasons for
.loving the old favorites. If the lecture
comes up to the pleasant things said
of it and th-e lecturer it ought to be
one of the most enjoyable afternoons
of the season*. All are invited'. The
meetings begin promptly at 3. There
is no charge of any kind.—not even a
collection.
Dr. Green's Address
Las* Suiwkny afternoon S. P. Bacae-tow
presided. Rev. George F. Rente
offered' the prayer. H. G. Witaneyer
directed the singing and E. J. Krause
was at the piano. Dr. Green, nvho is
professor of English , at the Wcsit Ches-ter
School, had spoken twice in Her-sihey
and had made many frlendis, so
he was very cordln/lly greeted. His
subject wis "Getting Along" and* lie
presented It from three points—1. How
are you getting along with yourself?
2. How are you getting aloiiig with
you r neighbor? 8. How are you get-ting
along with your God ? It was an
address of fine philosophy, healthy hu-mor
and strong sense, all deHl-vcred
with rapid (ire ea rnestness and the
speaker swept the audloniee with him
every minute. He Is a platform dyna-mo
and there are no dmll moments.
No 'better address lias ibeen heard In
Hersliey for a long time. II; was an
Ideal speech for the union services and
It is hoped Dr. Green will be I nieluded
In next year's program.

Y. W. C. A.'s GREAT RECORD
Fifty Years of Progress, from 1866 to
1916
\
All over the Uni'ted( States today the
Young Women's Christian Associations
are celebrating a golden jubilee. The
conditions of younig women,, the rise
of associations, and distinctive efforts
to meet their needb, together with the
educational, religious, economic amd
otter contemporaneous movements are
being reviewed and studied' as never
before.
Before 1886 the activities were both
in England and the United States: The
organizationi of the Boston Association
took place on March, 3, 1S66, when the
name was first used in America. In
Deeemlber, 1906, the first convention, of
the Young Women's Christian A'ssocia-tion
of the United States was held in
New York' City and the National Board
elected.
Women of tine present day are think-ing?
In terms of co-operation, economy
mid efficiency. To promote the work
of the Young Women's Christian Asso-ciation
along these lines' the National
Oi'saniiza'tloii' erected a Headquarters'
Ruildiing flt 600 Lexington Avenue,
New York City, where the work of the
National Board 'has been, gradually de-veloped
audi efficiently carried' on
through eight departments.
During |:he jubilee weeks we hope
to acquaint the friends of the Asso-ciation
with the accomplistaonfcs' of
the past yea rs and the Ideate toward
which we are striving. The first event
in th* Hersliey Jubilee will be the- An-inml
Meeting and Membership Rally.

BOARD WILL MEET
FOR NEW CHURCH
Official Bod}' of the First United
Brethren to be Called in Session
Next Week—Probable That
Building of the Edifice
Will Be Begun This Year
A meeting of the Board has been
called to consider -definite plans for in-augurating
the work on the new church
which the iirst United Brethren con-gregation
will "build on their site on
Chocolate Avenue. This site is at
present occupied by the Yingst and
Hershey residences, both of which will
be torn down.
The members of the board are : A.
W. Snavely, president; •!?. D. Clark, H.
M. Witman, Harry Imboden , James
Millard ,.Edward M. Hershey and Alli-son
Gai-man.
The members of the church are at
work on the tmilding fund and this
fund will be reported at Easter. There
is a nest-egg of six hundred dollars or
more from a collection last year. The
cost of the finished church property
will be about $€0,000. The church' is in
fine shape and is thriving remarkably
.under the ministration of Rev. N. L.
Linebaugh. Its membership has been
more than douhled and before the year
is gone it will be three times what it
was when Mr. Linebaugh took charge.
The last Sunday of this month is the
time for new member.? and many are
expected.
A Great Revival
The revival at the church closed last
Sunday night Although he had spoken
at everyone of the 27 nights of the
evangelistic campaign, itev. Mr. Line-baugh
was in splendid condition, ap-parently
none the worse for his strenu-ous
month. He was full of zeal, which
created enthusiasm ijii the crowded
congregation and the services were
tense and impressive. There were four
decisions,, including a mother and a
daughter. During the month there
were 50 conversions and 10 reconsecra-tions,
a total of 60 decisions. This !s
the record for Hershey and is far
ahead of any series of meetings in this
vicinity. A choir of 50 voices, under
H. G. "Witmeyer helped greatly. (
T^he honor roll of the choir (those
present every night) is Vandetta
Cooper, Blanche Cooper, Hilda Christ,
Edn a Carpen ter, Mabel Carpenter, Vii
ginia Witman, Lilly Habecker, Edith
Habeeker, Mrs. N. L. Linebaugh, Ber-tha
Habecker, Mr. Crane. Every
Tuesday and Friday evening the
"Booster" choir (all children) gave in-spiration
by their choruses. Most of
the decisions were between the. ages of
10 and 25, only five being" under that
age. Many were heads of families. Mr.
Linebaugh thanks . the Christians of
this community for their loyal sup-port.

200CARLOADS SUGAR
ON WAY TO HERSHEY
They Bring a Cargo Direct from Cuba*.
Hershey's Complete Sugar Refin-ery.
Romantic Story of Sugar
in the Modern Life of Cuba.
New Lot of Rich Cubans
It a'equires about 200 cars to trans-port
from the ship the largest cargo of
sugar that Hershey bas brought from
Cuba. This sugar is of prime quality
and is particularly adapted, to the
standards demanded by the Hersliey
products.
What the sugar industry metons to
moderni Cuba is shown In the follow-ing
article :
"The millions of dolla rs of suga r pro-fits
which have accrued to Cuba since
Hie outbrea k of the war owing to the
high prices of sugar are being spent in
this country rather than In France ana
the other Kii'ropean coun tries, as -was
the case 'in the days gone t>y. Hereto-fore
whenever the price of sugar soar-ed
the Cuban planters went to Europe,
and. especially to Paris, to spend their
profits.
"Not, only did the Cuban, sugar kings
spend millions liu Paris for pleasure,
but tliey purelDiised there rnany house-hold
goods, dresses andi jewels, as well
as machinery and supplies for their
sugar mills, which they could buy much
more cheaply In Kurope than here, The
war has cut off the European supplies
and t hey are now speralurg for pleas-uiro
and for business, purposes In this
coun try Avith the shine lavisihness as
t hey used to abroad.
"The. Cuba us have been extremely
