Belle W. Leader's rat, the second and
Mrs. Elizabeth H. Oliver's dog the
MOUNT JOY BEATS AKRON
MASONIC HOMES | booby prize.
So much has been said, written
and published about Abraham Lin-
to-day seems like a thrice told tale,
vet what he was and what he did will
live in the memory of the people of
18ts.
His wise and patriotic utterances,
during the Civil war, come to us, like |
a voice from the tomb, to-day, in
the expression of our sentiments,
{duty and determination in the world’s |
war in which we are engaged.
His life’s progress from a log cabin
to the White House, with nothing
but a good and loving mother’s care
and counsel to guide his steps
through poverty and hardships, to
reach the goal of President of the
greatest republic on earth and he ac-
claimed the saviour of his country,
furnishes an object lesson and a
stimulus to effort and ambition,
which appeals with special force to
every boy in our land.
It seems fitting and appropriate,
therefore, that the American school-
boy should play an important part
the celebration of Lincoln’s Birth-
day.
In the Masonic Homes’ observance
of this day, set apart as a legal holi-
day by a grateful country in honor of
its martyred and immortal President,
the boy guests now numbering thirty-
six, bright, intelligent and lusty
American boys, were given a promi-
nent part in the celebration, the en-
in
tire first part of the observance
being assigned to them, and very
creditably did they do their part,
bringing out in their recitations,
many of the wise and historic say-
ings of the martyred President, and
delighting the audience with their |
singing. Elwood Schrank presided
for the boys.
The following letter from Past
Grand Master, Brother George B,
Orlady, to the boys, was read:
Philadelphia, Pa.,
Feb. 11, 1918.;
My ®ear Boys:
Through Miss Saunder’s kindness,
I have before me your photographs
in the knitting act, and I assure you |
of my appreciation of your efforts
to be practical and useful in this |
world’s work. I am heartily proud of
the whole “bunch,” and want you to
feel that your foster fathers in the
state are all equally interested in
your present and future welfare.
You have a big load to carry, you
must make good, to justify the con-
fidence and faith that each and ev-|
ery one of you will faithfully dis-
care.
You are now in a training school |
for gentlemen as well as useful citi-
zens and you are expected to carry
the burden that we old men will soon
lay down. {
Your life will be made up stitch by
stitch and you cannot afford to drop
a single one, because in the life’s
work you cannot unravel and start
over. So play fair, strike hard, make |
good. |
Affectionately yours,
George B. Orlady. |
The program rendered by the boys |
was as follows: “The Star Spangled |
{ Banner” and Pledge to the Flag, by |
all the boys; “Lincoln’s Gettysburg |
Address,” Milton Bower; Song, “So |
Long Mother,” by the light aired |
quartet, composed of four little boys, |
Edgar A. Conway, Robert V. Wilson, |
Charles W. Moleton and Stanley A.
Kelly; Reading, “Lincoln Was Ready |
to Fight,” Robert Patterson; Short |
sayings of Lincoln, by Harry Orme-
ton, Charles W. Moleton, Charles
Bower, William Wilson, Stanley A.
Kelly, Leon Conway, James Sea-
sholtz, Kenneth Ilgen, Mark Barr,
John Moleton, Ralph Brownin and
Clifford Blackburn; Song, “America,”
William Vanderslice; Reading, “Part
Emancipation Proclamation,”
Richard Campbell; Recitation,
“Death of Lincoln,” Stanley Long-
don; Reading, Murry Barr: Song,
‘America Here’s My Boy,” by all the
boys; Recitation, part of “Lincoln’s
Second Inaugural Address,” Edward
Browning; Song, ‘“‘America,” by Wil-
liam and Joseph Vanderslice, Harry
Otto, Elmer Bower and Warren
Tourjee; Reading, ‘Emancipation
Proclamation,” Elwood Schrank;
Song, “Keep The Home Fires Burn-
ing,” by all the boys.
Illustrated Lecture
The completion of the boys’ pro-
gram was followed by an illustrated
lecture on Lincoln by Brother Dallas |
M. DeHuze D.D., the chaplain of the |

illustrated lectures of travel.
The lecture graphically portrayed |
the life of Lincoln from his humble
birth to his tragic death as a mar-|
tyred President of his country. {

Winners Blank Rivals in Second
Period and Win Easily
Mount Joy High played in fine
form Friday night in their game with
the strong Akron High School, and
had little trouble defeating their
county rivals, by a score of 29 to 13,
in a well played and fast game. The
first half found the two teams battl-
ing nip and tuck, but Mount Joy
spurted in the final session, while
their defense strengthened, and Ak-
ron was let down with but two foul
goals, They managed to slip in but
three field goals during the entire
game, and all these came in the open-
ing period.
The losers played a stiff article of
ball, however, and their fighting
spirit made things interesting all dur-
ing the game. DeLong was the point
getter for the winners, while Bruba-
ker and Albright shared honors for
the Akron five. The score:
Mt. Joy H. Akron H.
DeLong ..forward...... Spotts

Field goals: DeLong 5, Myers 2,
Eshleman 3, Dearbeck 2, Garger,
3rubaker 2, Albright. Foul goals:
DeLong 3 out of 9; Albright 7 out of
18. Referee, O'Neill. Time of
periods, 20 minutes.
As a preliminary the local Boy
Scouts were defeated by the Eliza-
bethtown Boy Scouts.
Marietta High walloped
Friday night 62 to 15.
Elizabethtown High made the fast
Oberlin High team bow Friday even-
ing when the Masonic Homes town
