Woman's Aid Society
Sells Paxton Cook Book
Everyone knows what it is to hur-j
riedly select a gift in these last days
before Christinas. For such perplexity!
the book. "Historic Paxton —Her Days;
and Her Ways." by Helen Bruce Wal- ■
lace, published by the Women's Aid :
Society of Paxton Church, will be a
happy solution.
This book makes an attractive pres
ent for either a man or a woman, with
its unusual combination of historic
and practical interest. The lirst half
is devoted to the story of old Paxton i
and its sister church. Derry. one ofi
the famous churches of America, i
around whose early years center ex- .
citing events in Pennsylvania history.
Its second pastor. John Elder, was l
one of the big men of this comniun- |
ity. Exery son of Dauphin county j
should know why.
The story is full of color and put]
iin a way that is readable for the busy'
j man. The illustrations heading the j
i sketches include pictures of old and j
i new Paxton and of its sister church. I
I Old Derry.
The woman who does not particu- j
larly care for history will revel in the'
cook book section. Here for the first]
time are given favorite receipts of
noted cooks, receipts that have been
cherished carefully for generations. Jn
addition there are practical helps for
home emergencies, and comprehensive I
instruction for the home gardener and I
poultry raiser.
Such a book i« easily mailed to tho |
Harrisburger, who cannot get hornet
for Christmas, and who will appre- j
elate such a touch of home scenes. It I
is for sale at 214 Pine street and al '
the leading book stores at a small cost. I
The Woman's Aid Society through the !
selling of its book keep in repair the)
old Paxton < liurch, which has been
used nearly 175 years.

ACADEMY SMOKER
10 BE BIG AFFAIR
'Former Students For Many Years
Will Gather at the New Build
ing Above the City
For probably the first time in its
long and eventful history the llarris
, burg Academy will 'have an "Academy
; night." at which the alumni and for
mer students ol' the institution, which
] owes its inception to John Harris, the
| founder of Harrisburg. will gather and
| talk over old times. The arrangements
! are being made by Dr. Arthur E.
| Brown, the headmaster, and a com
j mittee of the younger alumni and
I every effort has been made to reach
every man who was ever registered as
a student under the Academy,
j it is recognized that a school which
j lias had such a long career as the
j Academy must necessarily have some
' former students whose names are not
; on the lists which have been gathered
in the lasl few months and the com
mittee earnestly hopes that whether
! any former students receive invita
j lions or not they will show up at the
Academy on December 2S.
1 The smoker has been fixed for Mon
. day night and already many of tho
■ former students have put a red mark
on that date, planning to attend.
j There will lie reunions of students
I who atttended the Academy back in
the sixties and the seventies and the
men of the eighties and the nineties
will be out in force to show the stu
dents of the last decade that their
j interest in the old school is still strong,
j The committee in charge has re-
I quested that former students who
I have not received invitations send in
their names so that the list may be
! made complete. The names may be
; sent to Dr. Brown or to John Smith,
j Ehrman B. Mitchell and William C.
t Dunlap, the committee actively in
charge of the arrangements.
