' Just here, possibly, is a good! chance for the Telegraph to tell its readers how much it appreciated the I help of those who volunteered to make the outing the success it was ! The assistance of H. O. Beck. the; property man for Paxtang park, was, especially valuable. The Telegraph s thanks, by the way, includes conces sionaries at Paxtang. They contri buted some o. the prizes. The Hit; "a> Doubtless you read something of the "big day" in last evening's Tele graph. Because of Father Time and the mail trains wait for no man, not nearly all the details of that gather ing could he told. So here are some' more of them. First of all there was the vaudeville 1 show! It was just the kind of a show that you'd enjoy if you're a "kid"—and even the grown-ups waited round to see, too. It was specially arranged for the youngsters. Tumbling, acro j batlcs, juggling, comic dancing—they were all on the program. And did the small spectators enjoy the program? jjust ask em. j During that time the peanuts were i ! distributed. Little Marjorie Sterrett. I the "Battleship Girl," and special guest of the Telegrapn. distributed 1 ; them, bagful upon bagful. And how 1 I those peanuts did ti>uppAar! Half a i ton were given out—ano. eaten—in I scarcely no time. The Governor Meets "Old Cronies" I After the show there was a brief lull while the picnickers opened some thousands of well-crammed lunch | baskets. And at 3.30 the crowd—all that could, at any rate—gathered in ! the theater auditorium to hear Gov-1 , ernor Martin G. Brumbaugh and to! ! formally meet Miss Sterrett. Shortly after 3.30 o'clock President! 1 A. Carson Stamm of the School Board,; introduced Governor Brumbaugh. i Governor Brumbaugh, President) ; Stamm explained, is one of the great' | educators and that he is ever at his' best when he is deep in the solution of j j that problem that lies nearest hl» j heart—the education of the school children of the State and nation. The Talc of Two Shirts | In reply Governor Brumbaugh got the younlisters in rare good humor by greeting them as "his old chronles." The school he places above any insti tution, he said, and its problems arc I always interesting. He emphasized i the importance of the public school I and told a story of two shirt*. One I was of the boy who always backed away at the approach of teacher or ' visitor. The Governor never could | (Understand this peculiar action until j one day he saw the boy hurrying down I the steps, unconscious that anyone! I was looking. "Then," said the Gover- i | nor, "I saw that the boy had only thei ! front of a shir* — and he was too 'ashamed to let anyone see his bare. I back." The other incident referred i to a boy who one day came to school in a little Porto Rican town —with a' shirt much, much too big for him. j "Inquiry developed the fact that the! ! boy's one shirt was being washed and 1 ; that his father gave the lad his," ex-j plained the Governor. "These two boys, one with half a I shirt, and one with a shirt too big. i but who went to school anyway, are j ' worth more than a dozen boys In silk I •shirts and stockings who loaf about on the street corners." vigorously de-; clared the Governor. "Clothes do NOT make the man." The Spelling Bee Then smiling little Miss Sterrett was led out upon the stage by Gover nor Brumbaugh and President Stamm introduced her to the big crowd of Harrisburg's youngsters. Did you know Marjorie, by the way, is very much a Pennsylvania? I Governor Brumbaugh mentioned; : that when he said that he knew her when she went to school in Philadel-| j phia and he knows her teachers. In-j cidentallv he said that she is a lineal j descendant of the first Sterrett after' whom "Sterrett's Gap,'' in the moun tains across the river, is named. Following the big time in the au- j ditorium there was the spelling bee. Brains Vs. Brawn That was SOME bee. Hundreds of youngsters qualified and the way those' "kids" spelled words was enough to j I make mere grown-ups gasp. Prof. J. jJ. Brehm, school supervisor, and a! | lot of teachers in the public schools } helped make that a success. The' 1 hardest words that school youngsters j i have spelled in seven years were used land some of the'spellers stood firm for! . fifteen or twenty minutes, i John Minnaugh. a former messen-' i ger for the Associated Press, won the ! first prize in the bee. He is a Harris ; building student. Minnaugh's work incidentally again ! demonstrated that old truth that i ! brains will ever win out over brawn. ( Harris hadn't any athletes In the : track meet, but with the points it i scored in the spelling bee it managed | to tie with the Camp Curtin and! Forney buildings at twenty points. | And when the tie was decided by Hip- j ping a coin, Harris won the flip. The Youngsters March Minnaugh won first prize In the HAKRISBURG TELEGRAPH i spelling bee. while Bernard Koplo ; vltz, Forney, and Lena Lapler, Ham i ilton, were second ntui third respec- I tively. Following: the "bee.'" there was a grand marcfc of all the youngsters and , some wonderful singing by a great chorus, lead by Prof. E. O. Rose. The day's program closed with a big meet ing In the Majestic theater last even ing when Miss Sterrett was formally ; presented to Harrisburg by Captain I j Francis H. Hoy, Sr., former command- | jer of Post 5 8 and one of the leading j officers of the State encampment of I the Grand Army. In deference to ; Miss Sterrett Captain Hoy wore his I Grand Army uniform. "The Knd of a Perfect Day" In hU own inimitable style Captain Hoy told the audience who Miss Ster rett is. and of the great movement— the building of a battleship for Uncle Sam—which she is heading. Then the envelopes for contributions to the battleship fund were distributed. And now this is nearly the end of the story. At 9.23 last evening Miss Sterrett and her father left for New York and Captain Hoy went to the station with] j them. Just before Marjorie boarded i I the train, the veteran fighter of the j war of more than fifty years ago. bent I land—kissed Uncle Sam's niece. 1 j "Some day," eh what? 100-yard dash for boys not over 12 j years tru noff in heats and finals): first i ) prize, catcher's glove; second prize, ! j baseball —First, K.
