being realized. Even though there
has been much opposition, by a
certain element of local citizens,
the Public School Board, after re
ceiving the support of the voters
of this boro at the 1924 fail elec-
tion, to float a $70,000 loan, im-
mediately began planning and work
ing for the erection of a new and
up-to-date high school for this
thriving borough.
Mr. and Mrs. Frederick F. “Baker,
life-long residents of Rapho town-

and returning to their native town-
ship, have resided in that section
since. For more than fifty years
this aged couple have lived in the
house which they now occupy, the

SILK SALESMAN TURNS

After having victimized scores of
countains by posing as an author-

Allen, alias John Allen, of "New
Orleans, was arrested in Landisville
by Constable Martin Doutrich.
Allen is known to have swindled

tained money for orders under un-

ders with a partial payment in ad-
