PERSONAL AND
CAMP HILL CIVIC
CLUB'S CARNIVAL
Thanks Due to Helpers and
Friends Who Made Event
Such a Delight x
Mrs. James Milhouse, president of
the Camp Hill Civic Club, has called
a meeting of the Board of Directors
for to-morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock
at the home of Mrs. H. Z. Zook, for
a final settlement of the carnival af
fairs.
The club regrets that so few of
their Harrisburg friends were able
to attend the community carnival
held last Saturday, In Zachartas
Park, which proved such a wonder
ful success. Through the courtesy of
President Bishop, of the Valley Rail
ways Company, the park was bril-1
liantly lighted and business went on ■
briskly until 9.30 o'clock. The club i
also owes Mr. Bishop thanks for car
advertising, to Koons Brothers, fori
the use of their auto trucks, to the
honorary members of the club who !
. labored faithfully afterward to clear
the park and burn the debris, and
to the fire company, which gener
ously loaned tables and chairs.
The most attractive feature of the
rarnival was undoubtedly the charm
ing Maypole dancing, directed by Mr.
and Mrs. C. O. Shaar. The crowd of
admiring spectators watching the 1
graceful children never realized that j
tack of all the wonderful dancing
lay the work of directing and think- j
Ing out scenes cheerfully given by |
the Shaars. When the booths clos
ed It was found that the most money !
xvas turned in by the advertising
booth in charge of Dr. and Mrs. Sieg- !
mund. Mrs. Siegmund is one of 1
Camp Hill's most interested club- j
women and always succeeds in clev-,
erly putting through her plans: this j
time they went far beyond expecta- j
tlon.
While th.e club feels it quite lmpos- j
slble to express their gratitude to all
who so kindly aided them in the!

WOMEN SHOULD
CREATE CHEER
There Is Joy in Making a
Home Attractive and Car
ing For Others
There are hundreds of women in
every city ara town who ought to
cultivate their natural Instincts in
some particular way—ln some way
that will inspire them to do greater
I things for themselves and make
home life more enjoyable, to create
within the home that spirit of genu
ine cheerfulness; they should know
tho joy of caring for their health,
the scientific practice of economy In
all they do, wear and eat.
The management of this paper
offers just such an opportunity to its
subscribers, believing that no wo
man with the love of self and home
and the present great necessity of
economy will permit the offer to pass
unheeded.
In another section of this paper
will be found our advertisement,
which should be read by every sub
scriber. It telfc) the part we are
playing in trying to help the great
cause of economy and health, as well
as establish proper deportment and
manners in social and business life,
by offering six practical home study
courses In the following subjects:
Physical and Beauty Culture, Milli
nery, Sewing and Plain Dressmaking.
Cookery, Home Management and
Etiquette.
These are not merely courses: they
teach practical everyday essentials
that are an absolute necessity to
home and personal life. They teach
the thrills of practical economy, the
joy of correct living. ( creating de
lightful interiors of the home with
simple means, yet effective and at
tractive. They teach grace and good
Judgment. Any one of these courses
offers an opportunity by correspon
dence instruction that will open the
way to better and greater economy
in everyday living, to teach the scien
tific method of doing things with
less work and effort and giving the
housewife more time to herself. The
day of greatest economy has come.
Every woman needs to practice the
curtailment of home and personal
expense, and thei'e is no better way
to do this than by learning how to do
your own sewing and plain dress
making and millinery and save at
least one-third of the present cost
you are obliged'to pay; the scientific
method of cookery and how to know
food values, the economical way to
prepare foods, the method of utiliz
ing every possible thing with the
least possible waste In making appe
tizing dishes; how the success in
planning a room depends upon good
judgment and economy rather than
lavish expenditures to make it de
lightfully cheerful and pleasing be
yond expression: the importance of
knowing the many little courtesies in
social and business life and the prop
er conduct of oneself on every occa
sion, whether in business or in the
home: the proper care of the health,
the scientific method of developing
the body, obtaining a graceful figure
and a beautiful complexion and hun
dreds of other practical everyday
essentials.
Each course In this offer is essen
tial. Every unimportant subject has
been emitted, leaving only those
which will give the most practical
instruction and benefit. The courses
were prepared by world renowned
experts, who have had years of prac
tical experience in teaching students
in every part of the world. These
courses are the most practical of
their kind that have ever been pre
pared.

THE CHEST OF SILVER
To own a chest of silver la the
dream of every bride, and to receive
a chest of silver such as is shown by

dream. One of the most attractive
patterns in sterling silver that lias
ever been offered is sold exclusively
in ffarrisburg at Tausig's—the Amer

most discriminating taste. Other of

conservative prices.
SOMETHING VOU MISS
Did you enjoy your Decoration Day
picnic? If you packed a cold lunch
for your outing you probably missed
your usual cup of coffee, and that Is
Just the way people who are used to
drinking Grand Union coffee feel
when they have to get along with any
other kind, for they miss the rich
flavor, fragrant aroma and satisfying
strength which Is found In the coffee
sold exclusively by the Grand Union
Tea Co.. 208 North Second street. In
spite of Its superior quality, the price
of this coffee Is as low or lower than
la asked elsewhere for cood. coffee.
