ANNUAL FALL FIELD DAY
Mount Joy Will be Well Represented
at Millersville This Year
The annual Fall Field Day for
borough and township high schools of
York, Lebanon and Lancaster coun-
ties will be held at the Millersville
State Normal School on Saturday,
November 4th.
Last year twenty schools and two
hundred contestants participated and
there is every indication that this
year’s event will surpass last Fall's
record.
There will be an elocutionary con-
test open to boys and girls. Each
| wishes, one contestant and an alter-
Inate. Any selection may be used
and the time limit will be ten
minutes. Miss Blanche Eshleman, a
senior, was selected and Miss Dorothy
In the spelling contest Miss Grace
Dietz was selected to represent the
alternate. Both are members of the
senior class.
There will also be a very good
representation of our schools in the
athletic events and quite a squad of
young men are now in training for
the occasion.
Last year Mount Joy won a num-
ber of prizes at this meet and you
can rest assured this town will be
heard from again this year.

IS VISITING SCHOOLS
County Superintendent Fleisher is
On the Job
The second week of the public
schools in the county found Daniel
Fleisher making the rounds.
Wednesday and Thursday were
spent in Conoy township. On Wed-
nesday, the superintendent was ac-
companied by L. B. Herr. Conoy
has been coming to the front in im-
provements. With one exception,
all the buildings are attractive in
the interior. During vacation, the
Ebersole and the Stevens buildings
were repapered and painted, so that
now the houses are beautiful in the
interior. The old desks were scraped
and varnished and they look like
new. At the Wickersham building,
a modern heating plant was in-
stalled.
The township school at Bain-
bridge numbers twenty-nine and is
doing excellent work. Some very
good teaching was found in a num-
ber of the schools of the district.
Four members of the board ac-
companied Dr. Fleisher.
Friday found the superintendent
in the extreme northern section of
Rapho township. Four days are re-
quired to reach all the schools, but
only one day was given in this town-
ship. The other schools will be
reached later.

unsatisfactory since the recent new
schedule went into effect on the
Pennsylvania Railroad but it now
seems as though a partial remedy
has been made.
We have been receiving our even-
ing mail, that is first-class, on the
6:55 train which does not stop here
and every few days a mail bag and
its contents were cut to pieces be-
cause the trainman despatching the
pouch could not see the mail chute
on account of darkness. We would
then receive the balance of an even-
ing mail on No. 5575 which stops
here at 7:02.
A new arrangement went into ef-
fect here Monday whereby all mail
west in the evening will be received
on the 7:02 train which stops. The
thru train at 6:55 will however take
all first-class or catch mail as here-
tofore and the balance of the mail
will be sent on the train stopping
here. This, we feel certain, will be
far more satisfactory.
Another new feature inaugurated
by Postmaster Freed is the fact that
the post office will remain open every
evening until 7:45 p. m. This will
be a great accommodation to the
patrons. The post office is opened
daily at 6 a. m. same as it was during
Postmaster Fenstermacher’s term,
but many are not aware of this fact.
The post office hours on legal holi-
days are as follows 6 to 8:30 a. m.

the Harrisburg Hospital and has not
regained consciousness. His skull is
fractured and his condition is eritical.
Friel came to Lancaster after at-
tending a foot ball game at Harris-
burg in the afternoon. When he left
Harrisburg he had but a small sum
of money on his person, also a watch
and his railroad pass. He is employed
by the Pennsylvania railroad as a
machinist.
No evidence is obtainable to show
that he was the victim of thugs. The
clothing bore no signs of his having
fallen off a train, nor were there any
marks around the place where he was
found to indicate a struggle. The
young man’s clothing was torn only
at one knee, according to the Harris-
burg authorities, which leads to the
belief that he was knocked down and
had struggled with assailants before
receiving the blow which rendered
him unconscious.
The Harrisburg police are working
on the theory that he was robbed in
Lancaster and then brought to the
point where he was found by the
autoists. Only seven cents were in
his pockets when searched at the hos-
pital.
