Hanover Light Co. Takes Over
Local System and Prom
ises Improvement
TO IMPROVE STREETS
200 Motor Trucks P6r Day Ex
pected to Pass Over Lin
coln Highwny
Gettysburg, Pa„ Oct. 6. —After en
during for years a mediocre light
ing system and service this town is
promisod good lights and service
within a very few days. The Han
over plant some time ago bought the
local plant and immediately began
\ to plant poles and string wires from
that town to fhis and will furnish the
current from that place. The work
!is about completed and it is ex
pected that not later than the be
ginning of next week tho connection
can be made, after which the Han
over manager promises to atone for
the conditions that people here have
stood for since they have been in
charge. The highway committee
of the town council has been in
structed to rebuild the part of North
Washington street, between Stevens
street and Lincoln avenue, probably
the worst of the streets of the town.
It is predicted that at least two
hundred motor trucks will pass
through this place each day follow
ing the route of the Lincoln High
way before very long. The railroad
car shortage is felt and in order
that the supplies of the country can
be moved tho truck system will be
inaugurated. Tho firm of G. W.
Weaver & Son has offered to donate
a service flag to all churches and
lodges of the town, if the congrega
tions or lodges will make known to
them the number of their members
who have joined any branch of the
country's service. Albert Lott.- son
of Frank Lott, is home on a furlough
of several weeks. He. is with the
Eighth Field Artillery, which is now
stationed at Fort Sill, Atlahonia.
Shell barks and walnuts will be a
plentiful crop in Adams county this
l al 1 and it is only necessary for
several heavy frosts to come to make
them ready to bo gathered. Chest
nuts are almost extinct in the for
ests of the county, the blight having
either damaged or killed the trees so
that only dead timber Is standing.
