Creatore's Band to Playln Hershey Creatore 's Band , which consists of fifty pieces, led by the peer of all bandmasters , Guiseppe Creat ore, who, as a master musician, gets the highest results and the last atom of feeling and expression from his men and the Var ied instruments composing his-wonderful organization , has been se-cured for a return engagement , and will give four concerts , afternoon and evening, on Saturday and Sunday, August 25th and 26th, playing in the Hershey Park Con-vention Hall. Creatore 's Band is the most brilliant musical organization playing before the public today. This band plays all the principal cities and parks of America, and also plays for the Edison Phonograph Com-pany, and during Hershey 's 20th Anniver-sary Celebration made a most favorable impression. Everyone who heard Creatore 's Band at the concerts given at the Park Band Shell will attest to the fact that it is in a class by itself , filling an individual niche in Amer-ica's musical world. Wherever the band plays Creatore proves a smashing success, his audiences becoming so enthusiastic that they leap to their feet and exclaim in loud term s their appreciation of this wonderful band. ,. The perfect control gained by Creatore over his musicians , especially in the balanc-ing of his instrumentation is notable. The wood, reed and brass instruments do most effective work , the ensemble being perfect at all times. He produces marvellous effects—flashes of dazzling light , rich purple shadows, masses of tremendous harmony. To hear Creatore 's Band is worth going miles to hear. He will give concerts in Hershey Park Convention Hall on Satur-day afternoon at 3:30 and Saturday eve-ning at 8.-00. On Sunday afternoon he will give a concert at 3:30 and at 8:00 in the evening. The music lovers of Lebanon Valley-should turn out enmasse on the two days that Creatore 's Band plays in Hershey, and every seat should be taken at each and every concert. There will be a charge of 50 cents for reserved seats, the proceeds/ of which will be for the benefit of the Hers hey Red Cross. The reserved seat chart will be in charge of John Sollenberger , at the Hershey Trust Co., on and after August 1st. Horseshoe Pike Bids Are Rejected County Commissioners on Friday re-jected all of the six bids opened last Wednesda y and decided to abandon the reconstruction work on the Horseshoe Pike. The commissioners claimed the prices offered in the contractors ' bids were higher than antici pated and thoug ht it advisable to drop the project from their road building program for the present. Due to the fact that labor and materials are at a high plane at this time the commissioners probably will not re-advertise for bids this year. There was a prevailing feeling that the commissioners want to build some more road this year and a resolution was adopted requesting the State Highway Department to announce what progress has, been made toward completing plans and specifications for the rebuilding of the road between Elizabethville and Berrys-burg. It was intimated by the commis-sioners that they consider this road more necessary at this time than the Horseshoe Pike. P. L. Risser, head of the Risser & Co., of Lebanon , submitted the lowest bid for the paving of the Horseshoe Pike , which was $180,925.14. The pike is about five and one-half miles in length.

Cprmers , a star pitcher , of Lancaster , was easy, his offerings being very much to the liking of Hersfiey, and 11 hits were the result. Hepting was in excellent form, and Carlisle was unable to do very much , gett-ing but 4 hits.

The game was featured by the hard hittin g of H. Brown, McCurd y and Baldwin. Hershey started out like wild fire , scoring four runs in the first inning. Columbia got going in the second inning and played the game like winners. There was a thrillin g climax in the 7th inning. Two men were out , and two men were on bases. Fry, the pinch hitter , poked the ball on the nose for a clean drive to centre field. Heffelfinger spurted and scooped it in for an out—and the game was over. And we all said it was a good game.

All pitchers looked alike to the Williams-town sluggers, knocking the wind out of Hepting 's sails In two innings, and Menear lasted about as long. Bybee thought he could stem the tide by his spit ball , but it was all in his Imagination , and Smith , a new recrui t, was pressed into service. The Willlamstown sluggers by this time had had enough battin g practice so we are unable to say just how good Smith is, but the opinion seems to be that he hasn't got the goods. The Hershey team played as thou gh Willlam stown had given them the jinx sign. Theu did try to come back in the last two innings but the task was too much for them.

The re-served seat sale will be 50 cents a person. The proceeds of the four concerts will be donated to this wonderful work. Each one of us can do our share by buying tickets for these concerts , and also interesting our friends in other communities to attend. Each one of us should arise to the occa-sion and do our part , endeavoring to fill the Convention Hall to its utmost capacity at each and every concert. We all remember the splendid concerts given by Creatore 's Band during Hershey 's 20th Anniversary Celebration , and we can look forward to wonderful musical treats in the Convention Hall.

A. W. Snavely and Rev. and Mre , M. LeRoy Wuchtcr , ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Don't Miss "Smitin' Through" This Week Smilin' Through ," the great comedy success by Allan Langdon Martin which was originally produced in New York with Jane Cowl and a superlative support-ing cast, has been selected as the offering at the Hershey Park Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week. The story of "Smilin ' Through" -rafter a prologu e that is far too unique to be spoiled by being told in advance , starts in the garden of a crusty old man who has as his ward, a delightful wisp of an Irish girl with all the charm of the central figure in "Peg O' My Heart ". For years he has bitterly remembered the fact that another man has won the woman whom he loved. There-fore, when he finds that this girl has fallen in love with the son of the man, he is fur-ious and swears that they shall never marry. Right here, comes in the quaintness of the piece. Back through the hazy film of years that have passed comes memory visualized. He lives over again the years he cannot forget and from them learns the lesson that he had never learned before with the result that , when the young lover returns, he permits them to be happy and , in so doing, finds happiness himself. While there is a sweetness and inimitable charm in the story of "Smilin 1 Through" , the skill with which the characters are drawn is probably ! the most attractive feature of this great play. It is one play in a hundred. The cast is as follows: John Carteret Gordon Ruffin Dr. Owen Harding Frederick Clayton Ellen Helen Potter Ja ckson Kathleen Dimgannon Miss Ella Kramer Willie Audrey Bruno Wick Keneth Wayne . . . Clarence fceRoy Mary Claire Genevieve Berkeley Alicia Estelle Clayton Wedding Guests Ralph Crabtree Wesley Barney George Gilday Jeremiah Wayne Clarence LeRoy Moonyeen Clare Miss Ella Kramer There s a Laugh a Minute in "It s a Boy" Rehearsals have been completed and everything is in readiness at the Hershey Park Theatre for the first performance of the big New York comedy success "It' s A Boy" by the Ella Kramer Stock Co. The latter part of next week, Thursday, Friday and Saturday promises to provide perhaps the most delightful theatrical entertain-ment that local audiences have ever had. "It 's A Boy", which is from the pen of William Anthony McGuire , one of the younger and most promising of modern dramatists , was originally presented at the Harris Theatre in New York by Sam H. Harris. A comedy based on American life as it is today, it presents the problems of the first two years , in the average young couple's existence, in a manner that wins the instant approval of theatregoers. "It 's A Boy" is the story of the aspira-tions of a young couple to climb to the pinnacle of big business via the New York route. They sell out their interests in a small town and start doing the Park Ave-nue thing on a ten thou sand dollar salary. Most people do that nowadays and most people, like this couple, hit the bumps and find themselves without income, in the hole and cut off from the friends who clung to them so long aa they could furnish the whip that makes the mare of excitement go. But In "It 's A Boy" the couple are young, In love with one another and have courage. So they decide to cast aside all the shams of the city, pocket their pride , go back to the little home town and begin all over again. Just at this point the boy's father arrives on the scene. He gives them the money they were to receive after his death and this is the first stone on which they plant their feet for the same, upward climb, "It' s A Boy" teaches a lesson without becoming a sermon and It puts it over with the most irresistibly funny comedy in the world. There are more laughs to the minute In "It' s A Boy" than any play you've seen In ages. There are a few tears to balance off with . The theatregoer today isn't satisfied with straight fun, He wants a modicum of common sense mixed In with It. He gets that In "(It' s A Boy". The McGuire comedy Is as skillful a combination of sense and nonsense, hokum and horse sense as has been written in a long time. Don't miss seeing it at the Hershey Park Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week, It 's a genuine treat and the Ella Kramer Stock Co. will leave no stone unturned to see that you get the best that they have to give. VIRGINIA LEE CLAYTQN MAKES HER INITIAL BOW ' .Little Miaa Virginia Lee Clayton made her first appearance on the stage last week at the Hershey Park Theatre playing "Bab y Burbanlc " In "Kiss and Make Up".

Creatore's Band to Playln Hershey Creatore 's Band , which consists of fifty pieces, led by the peer of all bandmasters , Guiseppe Creat ore, who, as a master musician, gets the highest results and the last atom of feeling and expression from his men and the Var ied instruments composing his-wonderful organization , has been se-cured for a return engagement , and will give four concerts , afternoon and evening, on Saturday and Sunday, August 25th and 26th, playing in the Hershey Park Con-vention Hall. Creatore 's Band is the most brilliant musical organization playing before the public today. This band plays all the principal cities and parks of America, and also plays for the Edison Phonograph Com-pany, and during Hershey 's 20th Anniver-sary Celebration made a most favorable impression. Everyone who heard Creatore 's Band at the concerts given at the Park Band Shell will attest to the fact that it is in a class by itself , filling an individual niche in Amer-ica's musical world. Wherever the band plays Creatore proves a smashing success, his audiences becoming so enthusiastic that they leap to their feet and exclaim in loud term s their appreciation of this wonderful band. ,. The perfect control gained by Creatore over his musicians , especially in the balanc-ing of his instrumentation is notable. The wood, reed and brass instruments do most effective work , the ensemble being perfect at all times. He produces marvellous effects—flashes of dazzling light , rich purple shadows, masses of tremendous harmony. To hear Creatore 's Band is worth going miles to hear. He will give concerts in Hershey Park Convention Hall on Satur-day afternoon at 3:30 and Saturday eve-ning at 8.-00. On Sunday afternoon he will give a concert at 3:30 and at 8:00 in the evening. The music lovers of Lebanon Valley-should turn out enmasse on the two days that Creatore 's Band plays in Hershey, and every seat should be taken at each and every concert. There will be a charge of 50 cents for reserved seats, the proceeds/ of which will be for the benefit of the Hers hey Red Cross. The reserved seat chart will be in charge of John Sollenberger , at the Hershey Trust Co., on and after August 1st. Horseshoe Pike Bids Are Rejected County Commissioners on Friday re-jected all of the six bids opened last Wednesda y and decided to abandon the reconstruction work on the Horseshoe Pike. The commissioners claimed the prices offered in the contractors ' bids were higher than antici pated and thoug ht it advisable to drop the project from their road building program for the present. Due to the fact that labor and materials are at a high plane at this time the commissioners probably will not re-advertise for bids this year. There was a prevailing feeling that the commissioners want to build some more road this year and a resolution was adopted requesting the State Highway Department to announce what progress has, been made toward completing plans and specifications for the rebuilding of the road between Elizabethville and Berrys-burg. It was intimated by the commis-sioners that they consider this road more necessary at this time than the Horseshoe Pike. P. L. Risser, head of the Risser & Co., of Lebanon , submitted the lowest bid for the paving of the Horseshoe Pike , which was $180,925.14. The pike is about five and one-half miles in length.

Cprmers , a star pitcher , of Lancaster , was easy, his offerings being very much to the liking of Hersfiey, and 11 hits were the result. Hepting was in excellent form, and Carlisle was unable to do very much , gett-ing but 4 hits.

The game was featured by the hard hittin g of H. Brown, McCurd y and Baldwin. Hershey started out like wild fire , scoring four runs in the first inning. Columbia got going in the second inning and played the game like winners. There was a thrillin g climax in the 7th inning. Two men were out , and two men were on bases. Fry, the pinch hitter , poked the ball on the nose for a clean drive to centre field. Heffelfinger spurted and scooped it in for an out—and the game was over. And we all said it was a good game.

All pitchers looked alike to the Williams-town sluggers, knocking the wind out of Hepting 's sails In two innings, and Menear lasted about as long. Bybee thought he could stem the tide by his spit ball , but it was all in his Imagination , and Smith , a new recrui t, was pressed into service. The Willlamstown sluggers by this time had had enough battin g practice so we are unable to say just how good Smith is, but the opinion seems to be that he hasn't got the goods. The Hershey team played as thou gh Willlam stown had given them the jinx sign. Theu did try to come back in the last two innings but the task was too much for them.

The re-served seat sale will be 50 cents a person. The proceeds of the four concerts will be donated to this wonderful work. Each one of us can do our share by buying tickets for these concerts , and also interesting our friends in other communities to attend. Each one of us should arise to the occa-sion and do our part , endeavoring to fill the Convention Hall to its utmost capacity at each and every concert. We all remember the splendid concerts given by Creatore 's Band during Hershey 's 20th Anniversary Celebration , and we can look forward to wonderful musical treats in the Convention Hall.

A. W. Snavely and Rev. and Mre , M. LeRoy Wuchtcr , ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Don't Miss "Smitin' Through" This Week Smilin' Through ," the great comedy success by Allan Langdon Martin which was originally produced in New York with Jane Cowl and a superlative support-ing cast, has been selected as the offering at the Hershey Park Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week. The story of "Smilin ' Through" -rafter a prologu e that is far too unique to be spoiled by being told in advance , starts in the garden of a crusty old man who has as his ward, a delightful wisp of an Irish girl with all the charm of the central figure in "Peg O' My Heart ". For years he has bitterly remembered the fact that another man has won the woman whom he loved. There-fore, when he finds that this girl has fallen in love with the son of the man, he is fur-ious and swears that they shall never marry. Right here, comes in the quaintness of the piece. Back through the hazy film of years that have passed comes memory visualized. He lives over again the years he cannot forget and from them learns the lesson that he had never learned before with the result that , when the young lover returns, he permits them to be happy and , in so doing, finds happiness himself. While there is a sweetness and inimitable charm in the story of "Smilin 1 Through" , the skill with which the characters are drawn is probably ! the most attractive feature of this great play. It is one play in a hundred. The cast is as follows: John Carteret Gordon Ruffin Dr. Owen Harding Frederick Clayton Ellen Helen Potter Ja ckson Kathleen Dimgannon Miss Ella Kramer Willie Audrey Bruno Wick Keneth Wayne . . . Clarence fceRoy Mary Claire Genevieve Berkeley Alicia Estelle Clayton Wedding Guests Ralph Crabtree Wesley Barney George Gilday Jeremiah Wayne Clarence LeRoy Moonyeen Clare Miss Ella Kramer There s a Laugh a Minute in "It s a Boy" Rehearsals have been completed and everything is in readiness at the Hershey Park Theatre for the first performance of the big New York comedy success "It' s A Boy" by the Ella Kramer Stock Co. The latter part of next week, Thursday, Friday and Saturday promises to provide perhaps the most delightful theatrical entertain-ment that local audiences have ever had. "It 's A Boy", which is from the pen of William Anthony McGuire , one of the younger and most promising of modern dramatists , was originally presented at the Harris Theatre in New York by Sam H. Harris. A comedy based on American life as it is today, it presents the problems of the first two years , in the average young couple's existence, in a manner that wins the instant approval of theatregoers. "It 's A Boy" is the story of the aspira-tions of a young couple to climb to the pinnacle of big business via the New York route. They sell out their interests in a small town and start doing the Park Ave-nue thing on a ten thou sand dollar salary. Most people do that nowadays and most people, like this couple, hit the bumps and find themselves without income, in the hole and cut off from the friends who clung to them so long aa they could furnish the whip that makes the mare of excitement go. But In "It 's A Boy" the couple are young, In love with one another and have courage. So they decide to cast aside all the shams of the city, pocket their pride , go back to the little home town and begin all over again. Just at this point the boy's father arrives on the scene. He gives them the money they were to receive after his death and this is the first stone on which they plant their feet for the same, upward climb, "It' s A Boy" teaches a lesson without becoming a sermon and It puts it over with the most irresistibly funny comedy in the world. There are more laughs to the minute In "It' s A Boy" than any play you've seen In ages. There are a few tears to balance off with . The theatregoer today isn't satisfied with straight fun, He wants a modicum of common sense mixed In with It. He gets that In "(It' s A Boy". The McGuire comedy Is as skillful a combination of sense and nonsense, hokum and horse sense as has been written in a long time. Don't miss seeing it at the Hershey Park Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week, It 's a genuine treat and the Ella Kramer Stock Co. will leave no stone unturned to see that you get the best that they have to give.
