Exhibits Increase, School Day Big Event Race Track Record Lowered In Friday Races Thousands of wonle attended the 66th annual exhibition of the Gratz Agricultural and Horticultural Association from Tuesday to Friday of last week. An increase was seen in the number of exhibits in the majority of departments. This expansion was apparent in the live stock division, and officials say the poultry show was double the size of 1928.

The swine exhibition was larger and comprised mostly thoroughbred pigs. Some of the exhibitors of pure bred hogs were, Charles F. Matter, Halifax R. D. 1, Berkshires; S.

J. Bowman, Fisherville, and Lawrence Kocher, Berrysburg, Chester Whites; E. M. Steeley, Sacramento and M. E.

Klinger, spotted Poland Chinas. Improvement of cattle stock in the community was reflected in the Fair showing. M. E. Koppenheffer and A.

H. Erdman, Elizabethville R. Prof. Harry E. Klinger and M.

Albert Shade, Lykens R. were exhibitors of purebred Holsteins and M. E. Klinger of Gratz showed Jerseys. Guernsey cattle owned by Daniel Romberger, Elizabethville R.

also were listed, as were pure bred sheep and swine by John F. Henninger of Berrysburg. The Home Economics Building, a finely lighted concrete block building one of the latest additons on the grounds, was filled to capacity, and its exhibits compared in quality and beauty with those of larger Fairs. Critics who viewed the exhibition feel that Lykens Valley can be very proud of their community which can exhibit its products, equal in quality to any in this section of the state. All these things they point out, promote interest in producing better crops, better farming methods and arouse and stimulate the desire for more purebred livestock and poultry in the valley.

MOVING ROAD MACHINERY Operations which were started last week on the construction of the Kill-inger-Berrysburg road have expanded into bustling activity this week with the moving of road machinery. Rollers and large steam shovel arrival here by railroad and were unloaded Tuesday and yesterday for removal to the Berrysburg end where concrete will be poured first. This is possible because less grading and work needs to be done at that end than in the vicinity of Killinger. The section to be concreted is nearly six miles in length and as much will be completed this fall as is possible until cold weather sets in. Several bridges need to be constructed on the route near Killinger.

J. M. Eshelman of Landisville has the contract for the project, the cost of which will be borne by county and state. With operations at this point, the State Highway Department has announced a detour on the route which bears number 25. For local Killing--.

er traffic the state has established a detour of four miles concrete and two miles macadam. This will not affect the Shamokin Harrisburg traffic which passes through this town. BOYS' BAND PROGRESSING A boys' band for Elizabethville is nearing reality. The rehearsal in the Swab band hall Monday evening, brought completion of rehearsal on a complete number, according to the leader, Percy A. Swab, who is well pleased with the progress of the young musicians.

On Tuesday evening when the 104th Cavalry Band gave their concert on the square, each musician had a youthful 'understudy'. Although Mr. Swab does not know when the band will be ready to make its first public appearance, he said a local business man has already provided for their first engagement. Mr. Swab said the greatest problem facing the organization is the lack of instruments.

More than twenty-eight boys attended the rehearsal Monday even ing, and the leader believes the membership could be increased to forty were the instruments provided.

Bitten by a copperhead snake Sunday, John Clouser of Duncannon is recovering. Clouser in company with Roy Lesher, poultryman of Millersburg, was scouting the mountains bordering Hunter's Valley in Perry county opposite Millersburg, when he noticed a stinging sensation in his ankle. Examination revealed the snake sting, and the snake was found not far away. Neither of the men had a knife, so Lesher sucked the wound in an effort to remove all poison possible and rushed the man to Liverpool to secure the services of a physician. Unable to locate one there who could administer snake serum, they continued to the offices of Dr.

Williams at Port Trevorton who administered Clouser is greatly improved. ON MOTOR TRIP TO MICHIGAN G. Fred Gaupp and daughter, Miss Alice Gaupp and Frederick Schreffler left by motor last Friday for Irvona, where they visited Mr. and Mrs. George Gaupp.

HARRISBURG STATION TO JOIN NATIONAL CHAIN Starting October 1st, radio station WHP, Harrisburg will be a part of the Columbian broadcasting chain, of which WABC, New York City, is the key station.

This was announced yesterday by W. S. McCachren, associated with the Harrisburg station. WHP will have sixteen hour daily rights to the Columbian programs, and for the remaining time assigned to it daily, Central Pennsylvania ar tists will be engaged. Radio fans of this soction will be pleased with this move, it is thought, because WABC was difficult to dial and was unreliable for reception by the majority.

It will now be possible with the Harrisburg statbn in the chain to receive programs cf the three national networks. WEAF and WJZ as key stations of these chains could be relied upon for these programs. ILL WITH TYPHOID FEVER James Lebo, son of Mr. and Mrs. I.
