Miss Henderson Tells About It and
Its Healment by Cuticura.
"I was away at the seashore and 1
when 1 came back I felt something
Itching on the side of my cheek. It
§m began first with a rash,
then it blistered and was
red and inflamed. It
gradually spread over
iny cheek, and itched so
that I scratched and my
cheek was disfigured.
"Then 1 sent for a free
sample of Cuticura Soap
H - - and Ointment. I saw that
' my face was getting better so I bought
more, and now my face is as clear
as it was before the trouble began." j

troubles might be soothed and healed
by Cuticura Soap baths and gentle ap- I

ointments. Your cheek is velvet and

drum corps marched yesterday at

men's parades held in this section.
From early morning the borough
began to fill with visiting firemen,
bright apparatus, gaily uniformed
bands, and on the trolleys and trains
the crowds poured into the town
until its population was more than
doubled. Old residents said it was one
of the greatest events in the history
of the borough.
Men selling small parasols, ticklers,
pennants, balloons and streamers
were on the streets crying their wares»
Temporary restaurants were erected
anO sandwiches, lemonade, ice cream
cones and peanuts gave the town a
real "circus" aspect. Union street,
the main thoroughfare, was lined with
visitors from nearby towns and many
whe came with the fire companies.
At The Hosehouscs
The centers of mobilization were
tbe three flrehouses of the borough.
Here was a: continuous stream of red
coated bandmen, firemen in the dress
uniform of their companies, chugging
motor apparatus and prancing horses.
Grouped about the lawns, on the side
streets and marching everywhere were
the bands getting "tuned up." Fire
men were busy shining up every piece
of nickel or brass that could be de
tected.
The parade was scheduled to start
at 1:30 but it was fifteen minutes
later when Chief Marshal Maurice
Cain gave the signal to move. Once
started, It marched in orderly preci
sion through the shaded streets of the
town while the onlookers cheered and
applauded.

SOBS GRIEF AT
SLAYING OF FRIEND
[Continued From First Page]
would have been meted out to the
murderer had not Detective I. N. Durn
baugh and Patrolman Joseph Trom
bino arrived and taken the prisoner
into custody. As it was, one of the
men deputized by the officers to help
restrain the crowd from lynching the
murderer was struck on the shoulder
with a heavy stone.
Charged with being an accomplice
to the murder, Despotov was arrested
at his home in the West Side. Both
prisoners were taken before Squire
Frank A. Stees and jointly charged
with the crime. Later they were com
mitted to Jail without bail.
The brawl which preceded the stab
bing started, it is said, in a South
Front street hotel. Just what it was
about no one aeems to know.
The body of Skara has been turned
over to H. Wilt's Sons, undertakers,
who are holding it pending an inquest
to be conducted by Coroner Jacob
Eckinger.
"Oh, to think of the sin I have com
mitted then in the sight of the good
God!"
Over and over again Vlada Uvonovlc
(Yvonovic) gasped his grief when told
in the county jail this morning by Dis
trict Attorney Michael E. Stroup that
he had slain his one-time friend,
Nicolo Scara (Skara).
Vlada's big shoulders heaved with
his sobs and after a while he raised his
head and told this story:
Nicolo and Dusan Gasbodof. Vlada's
brother-in-law, had been drinking at
a nearby saloon and were on their way
home. The pair had gone on ahead
and Vlada was sullenly following.
When the former pair approached the
dance hall the music caught Vlada's
ear and he declared he meant to step
| in. His brother-in-law declared he
was too drunk and advised him to go
home. In the heat of words that fol
lowed Dusan slapped his wayward
relative. Just what happened then
didn't appear to be very clear in the
minds of either Vlada or Dusan when
interviewed in jail this morning by the
county prosecutor, but so far as either
can recall Nicolo took a part in the
argument and also slapped Vlada.
Then Nicolo ran and Vlada followed.
As Vlada caught up with the fleeing
man Vlada drow a knife and struck at
Nicolo. He declared with tears stream
ing down his cheeks this morning that
he thought he had merely cut his
friend on the arm. When told that
the slash went deeper and that Nicolo
was dead, Vlad.i sobbed aloud.
Vlada's tale was corroborated by the
equally grief-stricken brother-in-law,
Dusan.

PEACE NOW IN
KESHER ISRAEL
Court Rules Against David
Goldberg; Equity Case Is
Dismissed
ft 1 "" * Kesher Israel's
| JJy )( IJj I congregational dif
ferences have been
Z sJP quieted so far as
the latest litigation
is concerned. The
Dauphin county
u? urt h '°i iow ' n ß
'jim day in the equity
likfllMr3a suit instituted by
I —David Goldberg to
overthrow the
agreement between the opposing fac
tions in the synagogue, upheld tha
agreement and dismissed the proceed
ing at Goldberg's cost.
After months of squabbling between
factions headed by Meyer Gross and
Goldberg, a settlement was reached in
court whereby a directorate of five
was appointed to serve until the new
constitution, now in course of prepa
ration, is adopted. After the accept
ance of the constitution, the direc
torate will be increased to twelve
members. Goldberg signed this agree
ment upon consideration that he was
to be one of the five first directors,
promise of which, he says, had been
held out to him by Samuel Fishman.
Fishman, however, contended that
Goldberg was not promised a place on
the directorate of five but was merely
promised the office of "reader" with a
place on the pulpit." Furthermore
one of the additional seven directors
elect, Abe Freidman resigned In th«
'name of peace and harmony" to give
Goldberg a job as one of the twelve
permanent directors who will finally
guide Kesher Israel's destinies.
