ATT WHITE MEAT
TURKEY! WHAT HO!
[Continued From First Page]
Harrlsburg. near Nineteenth and Mir- !
Vet. IBs boys are running the farm
t%aek along the William Penn High
wy.
"OK yes." said the old man this
morning to a Telegraph reporter. "I :
■have Invented an all-white-meat tur- i
key."
•"Henry Ford will have nothing on !
your bank account when you get go
ing properly." suggested the reporter.
"I should say not!" ejaculated New
ton. "I was in the Broad street mar-
Vet early Saturday morning and I saw .
cnmmon white-and-dark-mixed-meat
turkeys selling for as high as 70 and
Si cents a pound. Pretty soon the
supply was all gone and folks were
offering $1 a pound for any kind of
turkey. It certainly pained me to (
know that there are only three pairs 1
of all-white-meat turkeys in the
world; and they are up at my farm
in Cambria county, along the William 1
Penn Highway. I expect to use in
tensified farming methods on these!
three pairs of turks next year. I will (
get not less than flftv turkeys from |
the six. The following year I expect
to begin making money."
"This chatter is all very well." said
the now-impatient reporter, "but tell:
me this: how do you grow these all-)

TUESDAY EVENING,
; white-meat turkeys? Tell me the j
process."
The old man calmly raised the lid ;
! over his right eye.
"Do you see any unnatural discol
i oration there?" he asked. "Any color
such as gre'en? Young man. it is only!
necessary for me to tell you that I
! have these all-white-meat turkeys. I
can prove it by showing them to you. i
i I served one Thanksgiving Day to I
i "Uncle Bill" McClarren. "Jim" Berke- !
; bile and Enoch Miller, all well-known !
citizens of the town of Kbensburg.
That should be sufficient. If you want
to announce to a waiting world that I I
have invented all-white-meat turkevs
—if you want to tell that nature has
j been successfully defied—if you want
to tell that precedent has been over- i
thrown and order turned "into chaos,
so far -as turkeys ar# concerned, you
can do so. If you don't want to. you
know what you can do. too."
! The reporter still demanded proof.
1 "There, dad-blame you!" ejacualted
; the old farmer. "There's a photo
graph reporter had to leave. That New
! tell that he's different from others,
.can't you? See the whiskers? TheVre
! albino. That's proof!"
Just about that, time a Reservoir
I Park car came along and the Tele
graph reporter ha to leave. That New- I
. ton is on the level is vouched for. how
ever. by Robert F. Gorman, who lives

I other residents of that section of Har- |
NAVAL FIGHT
Rome, via Paris, Dec. 26.—A naval
engagement between French. Italian
! and Austrian Warships in the Strait
of Otranto is announced in an un
official statement issued by the admir
alty. The statement says:
I "Several enemy ships attacked our
patrol vessels in Otranto channel on
the night of December 23. French
and Italian warships came to the res
i cue and the enemy fled under cover
lof darkness after a sharp engage
; ment. What damage he suffered is

one patrol boat were hit and slightlv
damaged."
ACQUIT STATE POLICEMAN
j Wilkes-Barre. Pa.. Dec. 26.—Wal
ter Miller, a member of the State po
lice stationed at Pottsville, was ac
quitted here on a charge of assaulting
Charles Kolara during the trollev
strike disturbances. It was alleged
,by the prosecution that Miller struck
Kolara on the head with a riot club

it was necessary to use force to save
property and break up a riot.

I Just a Country I
Store Merchant I
Years ago a country merchant I
•was talking to his partner about the *•
possibilities of opening a store in "The City" he >
had heard so much about what other men had accomplished
and being ambitious, thought he too, might become a city
merchant.
I After completing arrange- I
ments to sell his share in the little
country store, he finally came to Harrisburg to look
around and purchased what HE thought a fair size store—
in a reasonably good location but learned afterwards that
he was SUPPOSED to have been handed a "gold brick."
Handicapped by being unfamil- I
iar with the necessary requirements
to cater to "The City Folks" this country mer
chant was somewhat puzzled to know just what to do at
last he came to this conclusion—
I believe I'll just try the old I
way as if I were back in my old
"country store," give the people fair treatment,
good values and square-dealing, then if I can't win that way
I'll go elsewhere.
I But somehow, (strange to say)
that's just the very kind of a store the
people of Harrisburg were looking for and
received this "country merchant" with open arms, how they
have shown there appreciation can only be told by the im
mense volume of business this "country merchant" is now
enjoying.
I To-day he is the recognized
leader—the most talked of merch
ant in Harrisburg and proprietor of the largest
clothing store in Central Pennsylvania Thanks to the thou
sands of loyal friends who have done so much to make this
the representative "Men's Store" of Harrisburg we hope
to grow still larger by sharing your continued patronage
and good-will.
