NEWS OF CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA AND CITY'S SUBURBS
MAY ABANDON
S. R. & W. R. R.
Rumors Current That Old
Perry Narrow Gauge Line
Will Be Made Standard
New Bloomfield, Pa., March 27.
Reports, which appear to be well
substantiated, provide for the aban
donment of the standard gauge Sus
quehanna River and Western Rail
road betwen Duncannon and New
Eloomfield Junction and for the
making of a standard gauge line of
the narrow gauge Newport and
Sherman's Valley Railroad from
Newport to New Germantown. Of
ficials of the two roads arc out of
town attending a conference at Phil
adelphia, eo the report is uncon
firmed.
The Susquehanna River and West
ern Railroad was abandoned for
passenger traffic several years ago
and a spur of the narrow gauge
Newport and Sherman's Valley line
extended from New Bloomfield
Junction to New Bloomfield. The
standard gauge line has been used
only for occasional freight traffic.
It Is approximately thirteen miles
long. The narrow gauge line is
twenty-eight miles long.
A big fight is expected to be
made against the abandonment of
the Susquehanna River and West
ern. The Sandard Oil Company has
a pumping station located at Sul
phur Springs and will vigorously
oppose the plan.
Traffic over both the lines, which
are controlled by the David Gring
family, is said to have fallen off
considerably within the past several
years. Other than the hauling of
iumbei, ties, extract wood, etc., the
freight hauled is said to be incon
sequential. The passenger traffic is
said to have fallen off fifty per cent.
Automobiles are largely responsible,
It i>: claimed.

j j A Sure Way to
End Dandruff
I.
There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need),
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de
stroy every single sign and trace of
it, no matter how much dandruff you
may have.
You will find all Itching and dig
ging of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel a hundred times better.
