Soda
Served Quickly
Gorgas' Penn-Harris drug store has adopted
a progressive method of serving soda water.
The idea is new in Harrisburg, but has been
tried out in a number of stores in other cities,
where the advantages have been appreciated
very much by people who wish to be served
promptly. There are no stools, chairs or tables
about the fountain this avoids congestion.
Patrons are served promptly and no one is
kept waiting. The new system is in effect at
the Penn-Harris drug store exclusively in
| Harrisburg and -is growing in popularity.

Kreider, who recently returned from
a tour of Europe, asserted that but ;
for the timely assistance rendered ,
by the American soldier, the great j
war would have been lost by the
Allies.

European sentiment regarding
Americans, has undergone a great
change as the result of American
lighting efficiency, Europeans no

nation of "chasers after the al
mighty dollar."
The Congressman gave a most in

points of interest ur.\l a discussion
of the vital problems of reconstruc
i tion. While in Europe he visited the
cemetery in which lies the body of
Joseph T. Conner, one of Annville's
I fallen heroes.
