I'SEASY TO NAB SHERLOCK HOLMES | [Continued From llrst t'ngc. j Thinks Much of City I have enjoyed my stay here and the one regret in leaving Is that I I can't take the City-Star along jwith me. I expect to go a good many miles before I find another laundry that will do my collars and shirts in such a satisfactory manner. Columbus discovered America in 1492. Pretty good old discoverer, but I've beat him a city block. I've dis covered that the Pennsylvania Milk Products Company is not satisfied with giving their patrons simply pure milk and butter, but they are going to build a plant soon that will not be surpassed by any in the state. My picture will be withdrawn from the Mechanics Trust Company to-day and placed on display in this bank for all to see. I want to thank Mr Sweeney for keeping the picture am \ the secret.

After meeting the per sonnel of this bank I can readily un derstand why they count their friends and customers by the thousands..

That's just why your prescriptions should go to For ney's drug store, 31 North Second street.

I was about to forget to tell you that if you are going to give flowers this Christmas, . tell the Bouquet Shop what you want. ; Cut flowers, plants or Christmas wreattis will make the home more at -1 tractive and your order will be filled ' promptly. This shop makes a specialty of decorations for {mrties, receptions and weddings. Talking about discoveries, that's my long suit. I have discovered that P. G. Diener, the jeweler, has a lease on his present location until 1937. I just mention this to let you know that when you make a purchase at Diener's you know he will be here to make • good for years. Those of you who have not done your Christmas shop ping will find thirty clerks here to take care of you. Can't but one thing do it and T can tell you what it is. When your heart is in the right place and your soul full of ambition you are sure to succeed. As an illustration I will take the School of Commerce. Mr. Raker has made a success of this day and night business college for the simple reason he has the ambition and works hard to make his students realize that honest effort pays in the long run. Students who graduate from this school are quickly employed in lucra tive positions. Please understand I am not trying to tell you how to spend your money. I am trying to tell you, however, that if you are going to put your hard ?arned money In an automobile, why f N Christmas Without Fire is a Christmas without cheer. If there is a time when everybody should be warm or when every home or hovel should have a fire, it is on Christmas morning. The number of people who will have only a puny fire, if any, for Christmas is legion in every city of the land. t Make some poor family, or families happy by sending them an order for coal. The charity organizations, city doctors, the police, your minister or your priest can easily supply you with the names of those in need and who gladly will receive Christmas Coal without taking offense, s Can you think of a more worthy cause? i United Ice & Coal Co. ■v v | / / For»ter A Coirdci i \ '\wvL-*/ / ISth & Cheatnut Third & Ilona Hummel Jt Mulberry XCOAL 1 Also Steelton, Pa. ■i > i not set one where quality is found of 'lie highest order.
