SPENT AN EVENING
WITH OUR BOYS
A meeting of the representatives
of all the American Legion Posts in |
Lancaster County was held in the |
parlors at Mr. Albert H. Stumpf’s |
West Main street,
restaurant, on
Friday evening. Columbia,
bethtown, Marietta,
rata, Denver, Lititz, Lancaster and
Mount Joy were represented. In
conjunction with this business meet-
ing Corp. Walter S. Ebersole Post, of
this place, held its annual banquet at
Mr. Stumpf’s. The Post had as its
guests on this occasion: General Ed-
ward C. Shannon,
Major
Eliza-
Lancaster; Mr. Amos Cooper, of
Landisville; and Messrs. Clarence
Schock, Thos. J. Brown and Jno. E.
Sehroll, of this place.
Mr. H. O. O'Neill presided as toast
master and the first response by Gen-
eral Shannon, was interesting. He
stated that interest should be aroused
in this community relative tc a home
for our boys. They are very de-
serving and should have a suitable
place to assemble. He felt that our
townspeople were very loyal in all
their efforts during the war and the
manner in which the boys were re- !
ceived upon their home-coming, and |
the handsol = rings presented to ev-
ry war hero, was further evidence
ze Mount Joy and community was
s¥vays with and ever thoughtful of
{(*<+ sons.
Toastmaster O'Neill next intro-
duced Thos. J. Brown, as the man
who headed the numerous drives here
during the war. Mr. Brown fittingly
rasponded. He said that he felt cer-

Dr. Hertz, the jovial and interes
ing Legion booster from the town «
pretzel fame, after uncorking several
witty stories, £ «d that he felt sure |
Mount Joy would provide a home for
its “boys” and that he thought the
other towns in the county should
wait and then follow our example. In
his language: “Whenever Mount Joy |
does anything she does it right.”
Messrs. Amos Cooper, of Landis-
ville, Stephen Pierce,
and Jno. E. Schroll spoke favorably
on a proper ho..e for our heroes.
Major Reitzel, of Salunga, im-
pressed upon all present, the fact
that the Legion deserves suitable
quarters. He also referred to the
time so many of ‘hem were “over
there,” what their thoughts were
while Aghting, wondering at the time
whether their work was being ap-
preciiggy by those back home. The
reception accordea them upon their
return was suffiicient evidence that
they accomplished their purpose.

of a home and asked the co-operation
of the members of the local post in
an effort to successfully conduct its
own affairs as well as procure a suit-
able building.

hall tastily decorated with American
flags and bunting. Also the large

E'TOWN LADS ALL GET
HEAVY SENTENCES BY COURT
The first case called for trial
before Judge Landis Monday morn-
| ing was that against Henry Inners
and George Hassler, of Elizabeth-
, town, and Jacob Flowers, of Stacks-
{ town, for burglarizing the home of
| Wendell P. Schaeffer, of Elizabeth-
| town, on January 6. At a preliminary
, hearing before an alderman the boys
| pleaded guilty upon evidence col-
{ lected by Trooper Koe of the state
police, but the boys refused to testify
{ at the trial. :
| The signed confession of Hassler
was offered in evidence, in which it
was stated that Inners cut out the
window pane at the Schaeffer home,
after which all three boys entered.
Stolen goods, including rings and
watches, were later recovered by the
state police. Inners, who first ad-
party to the burglary, although ad-
mitting he was with Flowers and
Hassler on the afternoon the theft
was committed. In sentencing the
three boys, Judge Landis noted the
fact that Flowers had been found
guilty before by the local court of
larceny, at which time sentence was
suspended. Also that Inners had
been an inmate of the Huntingdon
reformatory for nine months for a
previous offense.
