LOYALTON COPS SEASON'S SECOND GRUB'S CIRCUIT CLOUT GIVES MATES LEAD IN FIRST FRAME WILL MEET LYKENS SATUR DAY IN FIRST LEAGUE TILT On Saturday afternoon in a pre season game with Valley View, entrants in the Twin County League, Loyalton, a member of the Dauphin Schuylkill League, toted the honors away by a score of 6-4.

This was Loyalton's second game of the' season and the ragged and loose playing at times can easily be attributed to such, since it is the time of year when limbs aro a bit stiff and the smooth and polished edge has not vet been develoDed. But nevertheless there were occasional splashes of terrific slugging. snappy fielding and base running and Loyalton crashed through to tneir waiting laurels when they, ou hit their opponents almost two to one. Zerbe and Bixler did ace-like twirling for Loyalton and the latter for the visitors. Grubb was the gleaming satclite for his mates.

Loyalton had already poled one tally across the first m- ing. A teammate was on when Grubb laced the horse skin into deep left and ambled home when the sphere bounded across the fence giving the home lads a 3-2 lead which they lost however in the 5th when th evisitors got two, but com ing back in th and oth with one run each frame, Loyalton hung up the finals as 6-4, Blyler and Bohner did the slugging for Valley View getting a brace of hits apiece, each going for extra bags. Loyalton will open the League season at Lykens Saturday after noon when It is again probable that several old faces of the Elizabeth ville Twin County warriors will be seen In the line-up. The game at that place Is called for five o'clock. Saturdays score: LO i ALTON Summer Underwear.

B. V. and Topkis are known for their quality and comfort. Our stock of each complete in all sizes. 1 At a recent meeting of the Executive Committee of the Di.uphin County Sabbath School Association resolutions were adopted urging voters to consider all candidates in regard to their stand and record on the Volstead Act'and the 18th Amendment These resolutions and appeal are published below.

Fellow Citizen, and Christian, of Dauphin County of our grea Keystone Stato of Pennsylvania! In the year 1918, he who was then President of our County, Woodrow Wilson, issued a decree, prohibiting the manufacture of intoxicating bev erages. In the year 1920 our national government at Washington had written into our Constitution, an amendment forbidding the manufacture, transportation or sale of any beverage containing more than one-half of one per cent of alcohol. felt that they had done right and our state, together with all the other, except two, ratified that action in their legislatures. As consumed alcoholic beverage has always been a hindrance to progress, to the home, to -industry, to the church and a curse to the individual. Shall we say it shall come back? Lincoln knew it wasa curse to society as well as was slavery and he expressed a desire to do away with this evil too.

We have enjoyed unprecedented prosperity since this licensed evil has been removed. Do we want it to come back again? If the christian and upright citizens of this country want this evil to continue outlawed, then each one must go to the polling places and cast their ballots at the primary election, Tuesday, May 18 for men who pledge themselves to stand for no modification of present restrictions except such modification shall mean a firmer enforcement of present laws. Our present President, Mr. Cool-idge stands for the 18th Amendment and its enforcement. The friends of, and consumers of liquor say that they can get it.

If they can do as they say, then why do they want these laws modified? If they can and do get liquor when they want it, then why do they want the laws of our country to sanction it? No good purpose can be served. If laws were enacted that would legalize the manufacture, transportation and sale of beverages contain ing more than one-half of one per cent of alcohol, would the hold-up and burglaries become less or more? Would the number of murders increase or decrease? Would the niim MeiVs Furnishings. Belts, Suspenders, Garters, Caps, Shirts, Collars, Handkerchiefs, Ties, You'll find ample variety in each of the above mentioned items. We'll deem it a pleasure to be at your service. "The Corner Store" SCHOOL AWARD LEGION TO AWARD MEDAL TO EIGHTH GRADE BOY PLAN TO MAKE SIMILAR AWARD TO CIRL NEXT YEAR The American Legion again comes to the fore.

One of its most important annual functions was an nounced in school last week to the pupils of the seventh and eighth grades. The school Award Medal, as th boys and girls were informed, would be given to that boy in the eighth grade who best represents those qualities of character and ability which, if fostered, are calculated to result better citizenship. It was-. explained that the qualities in the boy which would form the basis of the award are honor, courage, schol arsnip, leadership and service, ihese personal attributes are prerequisite to good citizenship. They are part of the foundation of helpful and progressive community life and it is for this reason, it was explained that the American Legion desires to encourage and promote their growth in the hearts of the younger generation.

Recognizing the great honor to be bestowed on one of the boys, all members of the classes eagerly par ticipated in the selection by voting tor the one whose conduct and scholarship merited the distinction of receiving this beautiful medal Announcement was also made that the American Legion contem plates awarding a similar medal to one of the girls of the graduating class next year. The school authorities are also cooperating with the John Lloyd Post 404 in making the selection and the actual award will take place during commencement week. Clean-up Week May 17th To 22nd Clean up week if conducted prop erly this year will combine health, fire and property protection. suggestions Clean the streets and sidewalks, clear the gutters, open ditches, etc. Clear away dead growths and under brush.

Watch your garbage cans, see that lids are ily-iirht, etc. Remove trash, junk and ntiii'r fire breeding material old books, papers, clothes, rags, general rubbish, such as bottles, cans, ashes clean the attic, etc. The above program is merely sug gestive.

Hundreds of strangers motor through our town each year. They notice it and remark about it. Whe ther they remember it because It looked so well-kept, or whether they could not forget It because It was so unsightly, depends upon YOU! Let's do our bit. H. L.

I i I NEW PIPE ORGAN Dr. Omwake To Open Week of. Festivities FORMER CITIZENS FRIENDS FROM CHESTER, AT-LANTIC CITY AND OTHER PLACES EXPECTED GREAT PREPARATIONS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED Contributed Next Sunday, May 16th at 10.15 the first services of the dedi cation of Salem's Reformed Church and pipe organ will be held. Daily services will continue throughout tne weeK, closing Sunday, May 23rd, at i.jo p. m.

this is the lone- looked for day for the members of this congregation, and no pains have been spared to make it one of the greatest occasions the community nas nao lor many years. The speak ers will be some of the greatest men in me Keiormed Church, and the music will be of such a class as to please the most critical ear. It has been mainly through the untiring ef- torts 01 the pastor, the Kcv. C. P.

Wehr, that the realization of this fond dream has come to pass. His hopes may have flagged at times, but it was then that necessity mo thered anew the noble aspirations; his ingenuity may have at times been hemmed about with certain limitations, but he would not admit the barrier, and so at last, with the congregation rallied with him on the heights, the church beautiful stands before them bathed in the morning light. Many requests have come to the pastor to have the week's program appear in the local papers, but this would be presuming too much upon the good will and generosity of our editors. Programmes for the entire dedication can be secured free' at the parsonage. Briefly this is the story of the church and the attractions for the week.

The excavation was begun in February of 1925 and the work carried on with but few interruptions, The new annex is of dimensions 40 54 feet with a modern basement. The basement comprises boiler room kitchen, and large room for social purposes and Sunday School work. The main floor has an organ room 10 to 20 feet, three class rooms and a modern auditorium. The new Moe Her pipe organ is the largest be tween Harrisburg and Pottsville and is modern in every respect. The chancel furniture, furnished entire ly by friends outside the congrega tion at the solicitation 01 the pas tor, is regarded to compare with the finest of city churches.

The old part 01 the church is so entirely remod eled as to leave nothing but a new effect. The church will be dedicated on Sunday, May 16th at 10.15 a. and the pipe organ at 7.15 p. m. Both sermons will be preached by the Rev.

Leslie Omwake, Ph. President of Ursinus College and one of the outstanding men of the Reformed Church. Many friends who formerly lived Elizabethville but have since moved to distant parts will be here for the dedication. They will come from Philadelphia, Atlantic City, Chester and other places. At the morning services the names ot those who presented as gifts the pulpit, altar, pulpit chairs, reading desk, bible, pulpit light, and hymnal, which are a secret, and were given by warm friends of the pastor, will be made known.

The music will be iurnished by the local choir and the following soloists: Miss Edna Matter, Miss Mavme McDawell, Mr G. Fred Botts and Mr. Jesse Zeigler, BROAD STREET MILLINERY Great Reduction Sale. Most hats $1.00 to $3.00. Come arid See MRS.

TWO SAFE CANDIDATES FOR DEMOCRATS Next Tuesday the Democratic vo ters can cast their votes for William B. Wilson, Blossburg for United States Senator, and Judge William E.

Porter of New Castle, for Governor, and for years to come have che feeling that their act was a worthy one, and worth while. ber of auto accidents decrease or increase? Would the 'present pros perity continue or cease; would individuals and the home be benefit ed; would the moral tone of a community be raised or lowered; what wo'uld be the effects upon childhood and youth, beneficial or detrimen tal? All of these questions we can and will give answer to by our bal lot or show an unconcern by refusing to vote. The question is opened and up, whether we want it to be or not, and is before us for our answer. Future generations and eternity will record what answer we make. It will record whether we believe in making progress in righteousness or going backward.

It will record whe- ther we have faith in God and His righteousness. It will record whether we believed in His being on the side of right and then having the courage to ally ourselves with Him on that side'. Shall we not like Barbara Frit- chie stand by the standard of right? The generation of 1775. opposed taxation without representation, and threw off that yoke and the gener ation of 1860 opposed secession of state from the Union and put down that uprising; so may this generation say, this curse of intoxicating beverage shall not be legalized by any laws of this State or Nation. The people of our state and cnun try have everything that is needful for health happiness and prosperity.

Intoxicants do not contribute to any of these and he who would legalize it and give it place in state and na tion after we as a state and nation have said No, and have seen the benefits; commits a crime upon himself, his fellow creatures and the generation yet to be born. Therefore be it: "RESOLVED that we, the offi cers of the Dauphin County Sabbath School Association, constituting its Executive Committee, urge every citizen, male and female, interested in the moral welfare of our Communities, State and Nation, to at tend and vote at the coming Pri mary Election, taking care beforehand to select those candidates who can be trusted to support the Eigh teenth Amendment and the Volstead Act, and who will use every legiti mate means for the enforcement of these and the laws as a whole bear ing thereupon."
