MEMBER OP THEASSOaATED PRESS The Anociited Preif ia exclusively entitled Around the TOWN Finally Vlckey agreed, and as she attorney for advice and assistance In connection with problems arising. 18 Applicants and annuitants may, In informal proceedings, petition the United States District court for rulings as to their rights under the law. 14 No annuity to be paid to persons forcibly confined in institutions, or to persons not domiciled within the United States or its territories, or en route between the states and territory.

Cap'n Dan In his cot tage on the edge of the beach mut tered softly: "Hmm-m, looks like they ran on the rocks. Wonder why?" It was not long before he found out The next afternoon Vickey came, bringing a pie fresh and hot from the oven, to Cap'n Dan. She sat and talked with him awhile had been her custom since she was a little girl.

Soon she began to gaze moodily out across the bright blue sea. "Cap'n Dan," she suddenly asked, "what would you do If all that you cared about dropped unexpectedly out of your life?" "Well now, Vlckey, I don't know. But come on; you know you can toll me. Haven't I kept all your secrets so far?" "Cap'n Dan, Peter and I aren't go ing to be married. "It Isn't that bad.

Is It? What happened to make you change your minds so sudden like?" "Peter and I had an argument, Cap'n Dan, an awful one. And Peter didn't even speak this morning as I went by. I know It's partly my fault but Ira not going to apologize to him because it waa as much his fault as mine. And anyway if he doesn't care enough to come and make up, I can live without him." Cap'n Dan looked at her Intently for a minute and then said quietly: "Those are mighty harsh words. Vickey.

Sure you mean them?" "Yes. "I'll not go crawling back to him asking him to forgive me." A silence and Vlckey added wistfully, "But I wish we hadn't fought." "Well now, you wait a spell child. I think I know a way that you can win Peter back. Did Johnny Geness ask you to go to that dance you young'uns are having tomorrow night?" "Why, yes, Cap'n Dan. Why?" asked Vlckey wonderingly.

"Well you Just run up and tell him that you've decided to go with him." "But I don't want to go with him. I want to go with Peter." "Listen, Vickey, do you want Peter back again?" "Yes. Oh yea. You know I do, Cap'n Don." "Well then, listen to me and do as I tell you. You go up and tell Johnny that you've decided to go to that dance thing with him.

Did I ever tell you Vickey, that If you tell a child that he can't have a piece of candy he will want it more than anything else In the world? I don't think Peter is going to be so very different" Edna Kent Forbes EVENING MAKE-UP Rebman, widow of Henry Rebman, who died Wednesday, was held at 1:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon from the home of her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Robert H.

The early bird catches the worm. The early poet catches the spring urge. Spring Is the time for happiness and gay times.

Spring is the time for planning anu Dlanting. All the world seems new and young In the springtime. The heart and mind go venturing Not to sooil anybody's fun but spring has its dangers, too. Citv folks go off to the country, There are some things they should know. All spring water Is not necessarily rood to drink.

Safe springs are placarded by the state as such. When walking on the highways walk on the left hand side and face traffic. Hiking In the woods Is great good fun. Snakes live In the woods and re sent intrusion. Rattlesnakes and copperheads are deadly poisonous.

Don't reach under fallen tree trunks or rocks unless you have In vestigated there with the stick. Picnicking Is a rare treat. The ground, though, may be damp this early In the year. And poison ivy abounds. Also, do not pot strange dogs.

As for swimming know your swimming place. Countless drownings this year will be due to carelessness. A drowning Is so unnecessary. Another warning do not over exercise. Some Individuals will start right out doing their holes of golf.

Everyone should start In mildly in their exorcise. Their hearts will hold up better. If they do. So hoigh ho, to plsy we go. But, dear reader, take It slow.

DO YOU KNOW Serum treatment has reduced deaths due to snake bites In the United States from over 14 to lew than four per cent.

In electing a superintendent, the commission's primary duty is not to the successful applicant or any ap pllcant but to the people of the community.

The commission's objec tive should be to obtain the best pos sible supervisory service for the peo ple of York. The test of that service Is not accidental place of residence, but previous experience and train ing. When the argument Is raised that the position should go to a local tax payer, the argument reaches its low est point. Anyone applying for this position Is not apt to be wealthy, and consequently will not be paying any rei sum in me rorm or taxes. Then too, there are a number of Yorkers wno are now employed in other cities, 'iney are doing good work tlmre.

Suppose that they had been denied that work because they were iki reaiaems ot me particular city. A single glance is sufficient the absurdity of the argument that me position or superintendent of the York Recreation commission should oe awaraea to a Yorker simply be muse mo applicant is a Yorker.

Mrs. Han nah M. C. Relgle, widow of Harvey Reigle, this place, died Saturday evening at 6:15 o'clock at the Annie M. Warner hospital, where she had been patient for five weeks.

Death was caused by a complication of diseases. She was 76 years old. Mrs. Relgle was born In Butler ownshlp. a daiifbter of the late Jacob and Kebecca t'lomtse Heagey.

Previously to moving to Gettysburg a walked slowly away, Cap'n Dan saw Peter coming toward him. He heard much the same story from Peter. As Peter rose to go Cap'n Dan was say "Did I ever tell you, Peter, that If you tell a child he can't have a piece of candy, he will want it more than anything else the world. The next evening Vlckey arrived at the dance with Johnny as ordered by Cap'n Dan. She looked around anxiously for Peter and suddenly saw him coming In with Sue Blake, "Why why, what does he mean? I couldn't have meant much to him if he has forgotten already." "What.

Vlckey?" asked Johnny. "Oh er er nothing, Johnny. I was Just er Just talking to myself." At the same time Peter was say ing. "Well. I guess I didn't mean much to her after all.

She's for gotten so soon." Vlckey simply couldn't enjoy dancing and soon slipped out to think under the quiet stars. As she stood leaning against a tree, looking out at the moonlit sea, she heard someone walking along behind her. The some one stopped and said softly, "Vlckey!" She turned suddenly, "Peter!" "Oh, Vlckey, let's forget every thing. It was all my, fault. I apolo.

glie." "No, Peter, it was my fault apologize." "No, it was mine." "Wait a minute, We'd bet ter go ask Cap'n Dan before we get into another argument." As Vickey and Peter walked hand in hand toward Cap'n Dan's cottage, he saw them coming and waa pre pared. "It worked, Cap'n Dan," Peter ex citedly announced. worked." "What worked?" asked Vlckey, as she looked from one to the other. Then quickly, "Cap'n Dan, did you tell Peter what you told me?" 'Well yes, reckon I did," said Cap'n Dan grinning at her. "Well, anyway, It worked and I'm glad It did." Young'uns, before you go, would you mind letting me In on what the argument was?" asked Cap'n Dan.

Peter and Vickey looked at each other sheepishly. "I don't know," answered Peter. What was it, Vickey?" "I'm sure I don't know, Peter. I've forgotten." A month later as the flaming sun was sinking into the bright blue sea, Cap'n Dan sat In the first pew of the little church and saw Vickey walk slowly down the aisle toward Peter, who was waiting for her.

ON CARRYING GUNS Rome sportsmen were Quick to protest against criticism of the system under which licenses to carry aidearms (revolvers) are Issued. They ay ihey need sidearms at certain times; when training dogs, for example. Would not a rifle serve as well, or better? These sportsmen lose sight of the whole picture.

Yesterday three youths were caught after they had held up a college student and robbed him of his watch and alt his money. Police report the youths were armed with automatic revolvers. In New York state, from whence they came, possession of those guns would constitute a serious offense ubject to severe penalty. Not in Pennsylvania, apparently, where all one need do Is buy a hunting or fishing license and for 15 cents more he can get permission to carry sidearms "and no questions asked." Just how loose is the system for Issuing permits to carry guns? Apparently It's strict when the application is made to sheriff or police, but is without restrictions of any kind when the applicant happens to have It cents left after he has bought a taunting or fishing license. That's ridiculous on the face of it Lancaster New Era- KONSTANTIN PAETS BECOMES ESTONIA'S FIRST PRESIDENT Tallinn.

Estonia, April 24 (AP). Konstantin Paets became Estonia's first president today under the new constitution evolved by himself. He was elected for a six-year term by the two houses in the corporative system, which replaced the diet, and by an assembly of local government representatives. Paets, 64, "guardian of the state" during the last four years in which the diet was prorogued, was the only nominee. He was chosen by 219 to IS votes.

This eliminated the need for a popular election. The new president had fought from youth for the liberation of Estonia from Russia. In 1917, after the outbreak of the Russian revolution, the country regained its Independence which was proclaimed on February 24, 1918. Paets became head of the repub lie and conducted a successful war gainst the Bolshevists. In his new office he will have wide pow-ers.

He will appoint and dismiss the government and its Individual mem ben. He also will have the right to dissolve both houses of parliament ana suspend the chamber for two weeks in any session. In the Interim he would govern by oecree, enacting new laws In event cf a national emergency. ine new constitution aruaranteea Individual liberties and freedom of conscience and religion.

Albright, whore thoy paid their fines and costs of as The nearest approach to dictatorship that we have seen hereabouts occurred on Tuesday, April 12, when the county school directors met in special convention In court room No, 1 to elect a county superintendent If the campaign that had been bitterly waged throughout the county In the battle for this position left a noxious odor behind it, the convention itself smelled worse. Newspapermen covering this extraordinary meeting were treated to one of the most amazing displays of steamroller methods that it has been their rare privilege to witness in many a year. The convention started off with a bang with the immediate and un-amlmous election of what appeared to be a pre-selected chairman. As the meeting progressed, it became evident that the chairman Intended to run the meeting as he saw fit, and that the three hundred and fifty-some directors were soon put in their places if they found any cause for disagreement with ttie chair. If anyone disagreed with "his royal highness," that was Just too bad, because the mighty one simply said: "See section so and so," and went on with the meeting.

The first thing done was to chase out the public on a motion adopted that the convention go Into executive session. We do not doubt that a legal excuse can be found for this action, but we certainly question the wisdom of holding such an Important meeting behind closed doors. The dictator in the chair failed, however, in his attempt to throw out the representative of the two local newspapers, when the author of the original motion stated that he had not intended to exclude the press. It was evident, however, that had the chairman had his way, the press would have been thrown out on its ear. This would not only have been a violation of democratic principles, it would have been futile.

Did the chairman think for a minute that the proceedings of the meeting could be kept out of the newspapers, with over 300 people in the room? As a public official, he has a lot to learn about executive meetings. The subterfuge of executve meetings, behind which many public bodies hide, would not have worked in this case. In a body of this kind with so many people in the room, a "leak" would be inevit able. The chairman will be surprised to know that this possibility had been foreseen and that "arrangements" had been made to secure a verbatim report, even if the reporters were ex cluded. Did the chairman believe that the press, representing the public, could be kept from securing an accurate and detailed report of the meeting? If he did, and we mean he did, his education In public affairs has been neglected.

O- It is to be hoped that the school directors of York county do not condone such high-handed proceedings. The convention rolled on its smoothly-oiled wheels and presently it was over and a superintendent had been elected. Those of our readers interested In this election (and a great many of them were) will recall that The Gazette and Daily In its edition the following morning carried the individual vote of every school director attending the meeting. -a- We published this record of votes in order that citizens everywhere in the county would know how their directors voted for the superintendent This was a matter of public information and the public was entitled to it But our readers may be surprised to learn that some members of the steam-roller crowd held to the belief that how they voted was nobody's business. Needless to say, we hold this belief untenable and not conducive to good government In the school system.

We have no quarrel with anyone charged with the responsibility of running the county schools. Theirs a great responsibility. Our chief concern is that more light be shed on matters such as this, for it has always been a fact that where fullest publicity Is given public matters, the more diligent are the officials In the discharge of their duties. It Is a weak newspaper, Indeed, that does not take a profound Interest in the welfare of the schools and that does not give its readers Information concerning their conduct We hope that in the future, school directors will realize thuf the press their best friend, and that they will no longer attempt to withhold any Information by such underhanded and thoroughly un-American steam roller secret session methods. We say here and we shall probably repeat It In the future that It ia our firm conviction that all meetings public bodies should be open.

We can see no reason for having secret caucuses or star chamber sessions. It seems to us that if a public body would perform its duties In an honest manner It has nothing to fear from light of publicity.

We do not know why lt Is, but things that come in rings are much more attractive to the eye and seem ever so much more tasty than the same food prepared In a prosaic loaf or ordinary baking pan. If you do not see what I mean, then try it the next time you serve meat loaf, butterscotch buns, a pellied salad or dessert, or an upside down cake.

Get a large else mold, or several of them, both largo and small. If your budget will allow It Tack your favorite meat loaf mixture into a well greased ring mold In which you have arranged short strips of bacon radiating out like the spokes of a wheel. Arrange more bacon strips on top after the pan Is filled. Bake In a hot oven for an hour, then turn out and fill the center ot the ring with sauted or creamed mushrooms or a mound of savory Spanish rice. No man is useless while he has a friend.

Robert Louis Miss Forbes tells you today what to do in making up your skin for an evening when you wish to be frlviolous. The pores of the skin should be kept free most of the time, or there will be trouble later on; but for the occasional times, when one wishes to look extra well, a great deal of latitude may be taken, and without any-serious results. Vanishing cream is never the best thing to use on the skin, but for an evening makeup it makes a good foundation cream and gives a lovely effect It is this effect we are now considering, as there will be other times when the skin may be treated for building and health. If the skin has blemishes, there are creams to cover there, but you may do this too by using the Inexpensive theatre grease paint. A sticky foundation cream also does for a base, but whichever you use, apply powder then over this a little rouge, and a faint bit of lipstick.

Then powder again over the rouge as this softens the color, making It look natural. Next, brush the brows and lashes with one of the small stiff brushes that come for this purpose, but have a little oil distributed through the bristles. Any fine oil, or a brlllatine should be used for this. This darkens and puts a sheen on the brows and lashes that will be very beoom In -v FIREMEN HOLD MEMORIAL SERVICE (Continued from First Page) Barnhart, who Joined the Vigilant company on February 21. 1808, was among a number of veteran firemen who attended last night's services and who took part In Saturday's exercises.
