Order of Pennsylvania Railroad
Company Will Compel Men
to Live in Town
With the Issuance of a notice b> the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, an
nouncing: that hereafter no men would
be called from Harrlsburg, the scarce
ness of houses in Marysville has be
come more evident. At present there
are no vacant houses within the bor
der of the little 'cross river town. One
railroader says that If there were
enough vacant houses in town he knew
of thirty families that would move to
town.
With no vacant houses and so many
fieople desiring to make their home
n Marysville, there Is a good chance
for some real estate man, us there
are many desirable lots in the bor
ough for building. From time to time
there have been rumors of real estate
concerns building houses here, but
nothing has materialized.
President E. B. Leiby, recently
elected president of the Marysville
Board of Trade, in his inaugural ad
dress last Monday evening, summed
up the needs of Marysville, and em
phasized the great reed of Marysville
for more houses. He said that what
the board wants to do is to interest
Borne real estate concern, so that they
will erect some new houses, not one
nnd two, but half a hundred. All will
bo occupied.

BURGESS J. FRED HUMMEL
Twenty-five citizens, all property
owners in Wormleysburg, voiced their
sentiments in favor of a new town hall
and fire house at a meeting of the
borough council last evening: following
the reading of a communication from
Burgess J. Fred Hummel in which he
asked that steps be taken to erect a
new building. A committee from the
Are company was also present and
offered to contribute SSOO to the build
ing fund and pay one-half of the in
terest on any bonds which may be
floated. The fire company committee
was composed of George R. Chambers,
chairman, Vernon Kister. E. F. Arney,
Jacob Reigart and J. F. Twigg.
Committee Appointed
All pf the citizens present were
given a chance to speak on the propo
sition and each speaker stated that he
favored the erection of a new build
ing. After the speechmaking a coun
cil manic committee, composed of L. B.
Wanbaugh, chairman, John K. Neld
liammer and H. M. Smith, was ap
pointed to confer with the lire com
pany committee to ascertain just what
can be done in the matter. The com
mittees will meet within the next two
weeks and if it is possible to erect a
building data will be given the ordi
nance committee of council from
which to draft an ordinance for
presentation at the March meeting of
the borough fathers.
The letter which Burgess Hummel
forwarded to council was a progressive
document and received much favor
able comment to-day. It was referred
to the ordinance committee and it is
understood that the recommendations
made In it will be given immediate at
tention.
Wants Transfers Issued
Following close upon the announce
ment that New Cumberland citizens
would petition the Valley Hallways
Company and the Public Service Com
mission to have transfers issued on
the cross river cars, comes a sugges
tion from Burgess Hummel in which
he asks council to take up the matter
for the residents of Wormleysburg. j
He urges the issuing of transfers and
also asks that each car passing
through the borough be taxed.
Hummrl's Letter
The letter of Burgess Hummel In
full -follows:
To the Borough Council of Wormleys
burg, Pa.
Gentlemen: As Chief Burgess of
the Borough of Wormleysburg, it is
my earnest desire to co-operate with
the council of the same and with the
j citizens of the said borough, and to
ask their co-operation in return, as it
is my Intention to enforce the ordi
nances now on the booHs as well as
all ordinances passed in the future, as
it is my opinion that we should all be
law-abiding citizens.
Ordinances. —I wish to call the at
tention of the council to Ordinance
No. 6, sections Nos. 1 and 3. and Or
dinance No. 18, section No. 6; the or
dinances referred to should be

Public Health. —The laws of this
Commonwealth require borough coun
cils to appoint and maintain a board
of health and I would request that the
newly appointed board meet at once
for the purpose of organizing and
carrying on the work assigned to such

tention of the council to the extremely
bad condition of the present Town

zens of this borough have reaped a
great benefit from the present hall,
inasmuch as It is the only building In

of holding festivals, entertainments,
etc., and i am of the opinion that it
would be folly to attempt to repair
the same excepting minor temporary
repairs.
I realize that the council has not
the funds with which to provide a |
new hall, but I am of the opinion that
some provisions should be made at
once with a view of having a new hall
erected in the near future.
I am informed that the lire com
pany of the borough is very anxious
to co-operate with the council in this
respect and I would suggest that, if I
possible, a special election be held for I
the purpose of affording the citizens
of the borough a chance to vote either
for or against a loan for this purpose.
Revenues. We have ordinances
for the taxation of peddlers, hucksters,
telephone and telegraph poles, etc.,
and it is my conviction that all street
cars passing through the borough
should be taxed, and that bdtter street
car accommodations be granted, and
that the Valley Railways Company be
requested to grant transfers to pas
sengers from this borough to Le
moyne, New Cumberland, etc. It is
an established fact that whenever
there Is anything of interest going on
in Harrisburg it is absolutely impossi
ble for the passengers from this bor
ough to get seats in the cars into the
city, and it is either a case of stand
in a crowded car or walk.
Arrangements should also be made
by which it would be possible to tax all
persons tapping sewers or digging up
the streets for any purpose.
There are many other matters
which will be put forward from time
to time, upon which I will be glad to
communicate with you.
Respectfully,
J. FRED HUMMEL.,
Chief Burgess.

GERMS MADE HARMLESS
Rich red blood is the power that
keeps the human body in order. Every
day many germs of disease enter our
bodies but they are made harmless
and passed off if the fighting forces
of the body are in good condition. Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills build up the
blood, enable it to absorb more oxy
gen, the agent which bums up the
body poisons. In this way Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills are not only a tonic,
but a specific for the host of diseases
that come as a result of thin blood
and that can get a foot-hold only
when the tone of the body is low.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make the
blood rich and red, and strengthen
the nerves.
Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
anaemia, rheumatism, neuralgia, nerv
ousness, sciatica. Build up your blood
and note how the purer and richer
blood fights your battle against the
disease. Take Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills as a tonic if you are not In the
best physical condition and cultivate
a resistance that with the observance
of ordinary rules of health will keep
you well and strong. Get a box from
the nearest drug store and begin this
treatment now.

to Treat Them" is free for the asking.
