TUESDAY EVENING,
ago, establishes a new record for
that section.
The directors of the Harrisburg
Hotel Company, owners of the Penn-
Harrls, held a meeting this after
noon, and it Is understood the mut
ter of an enlargement of the big
hotel was considered. The first yeai
of operation has established the ne
cessity for at least 150 more rooms
and there seems little doubt that
these will be provided during the
coming year.
Cameron street, from one end to
the other, is rapidly becoming a
wholesale and manufacturing dis
trict. When the Paxton creek men
ace was eliminated through the con
struction of the control dam a few
years ago, the results were imme
diately apparent in the important
changes along that street. So long
as the Paxton creek was a rampage
ous stream, overflowing and flooding
the valley from Wildwood park to
the riter at frequent intervals, the
whole section was held back in its
development.
It is believed among conservative
real estate men that the overcoming
of the present housing cotiditions
here will mean a tremendous step
forward in the expansion of manu
facturing and industrial plants.
Harrisburg has taken its proper
place as a great distributing center.
CLASS TO ENTERTAIN
The Men's League of St. Andrew's
Episcopal Church will hold its regu
lar meeting Thursday evening in the
[ gymnasium, when they will have as
guests men of the Episcopal Church
in Harrisburg, Steelton and Camp
Hill. A very elaborate program for
the evening has been arranged by
the entertainment committee, head
ed by John P. O'Neill.
RICHARDS TO SPEAK
Colonel George C. Rickards, who
served with distinction in PVance
with the 112 th' Infantry, will be the
speaker in Stevens Memorial' Met
hodist Episcopal Church next Sunday
morning at 11 o'clock. Announce
ment to this effect was issued to-day
by the Rev. Clayton Albert Smucltcr,
pastor.

GYM MEMBERS
ATTEND BANQUET
Give Their Instructor Testi
monial Watch and Chain;
Hear Health Talks
\
The gymnasium of the Y. M. C. A.
yvas tilled to overflowing last even
ing, when ninety per cent, of the
membership of the businessmen's
gym classes held their annual din
ner there. The members presented
C. W. ("Doc") Miller, the physical
instructor, with a (handsome gold
watch and chain as a .testimonial of
their esteem,, and then screen pic
tures and other features of an en
tertaining nature followed.
Arthur D. Bacon, in the absence
of Al. K. Thomas, chairman of the
physical work division, who was ill,
acted as toastmaster. The principal
speaker of the evening was Colonel
Edward Martin, State Health Com
missioner, who talked on physical
fitness, the advantages of gym work
and the necessity of fresh air,
proper food and daily exercise. He
paid a high compliment to the work
of the "Y" during the war. Another
speaker was Robert B. Reeves, gen
eral secretary, who told of the
growth of the association in recent
years and said that the way to get
the new building or an enlargement
of the present structure is literally
to "push the Avails out" by increas
ing the membership. He paid a high
compliment to' his fellow workers.
"Shorty" Miller, assistant physical
instructor and one of the most popu
lar members of the staff, also spoke.
During the evening the guests
sang popular songs and enjoyed a
series of gym cartoons thrown on
the screen, showing Dr. Frank
Kann, George G. McFarland and
other A-olleyball celebrities in char
acteristic poses. Arrangements were
made also for the organization of a
volleyball league.
The program was proceeding
pleasantly enough, when John S.
Musser threw a scare into the audi
ence by arising in his place and
criticising "Doc" Miller unmercifully
for "alAA'ays starting his classes late"
and being generally unsystematic in
his conduct of affairs of the gym,
and "Dick" Jobe added fuel to the
tire by saying that Musser had not
gone far enough; that Miller never
observed his schedules and was al-
AA'ays behind time. Captain George
F. Dumb arose to the~defense of the
physical instructor and denounced
the complainants, at the same time
producing the gold watch and chain,
with which, he said, Miller hence
forth would be able to keep the best
of time. The big crowd cheered
itself hoarse and "Doc" had to re
spond with a speech of acceptance.
The dinner was the largest and
most enthusiastic of its kind in the
history of the gym.
Y. M. C. A. to Entertain

The following analysis should convince
you of the high grade quality of our beverage
ANALYSIS
Specific gravity . .. 1.01994
Apparent extract . . 4.98%
Real Extract . . 5.1 1 %
Extract of original wort v. . 5.70%
Acidity as Lactic Acid . . 0.09%

Sugar degree 70.94%

The above results indicate, contrary to prejudicial opinion,
that our beverage has a perfectly normal composition. It is pro
duced from an infusion of pure MALT and Hops.
Owing to the nature of its constituents, such as sugar proteids
and mineral phosphates, the beverage offers a food of considerable
nutritive value.
It s slight contents of alcohol and lactic acid make it a bever
age of distinct stimulating properties and of high digestibility.
The value of this beverage, from a dietetic standpoint, is due
to its adoption of a special pure cultivation process arid the most
careful hygienic methods during finishing.
