SIST IN THE PROGRAM
A treat is in store for all who at-
tend the monthly meeting of the Lan-
‘caster Automobile Club to be held in
the Mount Joy Hall at Mount Joy on
Friday evening. This treat is in the
form of an unusual entertainment to
be presented by the Green Room Club
players of Franklin and Marshall Col-
lege.
“Pokey”, a delightful comedy by
Philip Moeller has been selected for
presentation at the Auto Club meet-
ing. The Lancaster Collegians scored
a big hit with this sketch before a
capacity audience at Hensel Auditori-
um of Franklin and Marshall last
week and there is no doubt that it
will meet with equal approval at the
Mount Joy meeting.
Costumes, scenery and properties
used in the presentation at Lancaster
will be transported to Mount Joy.

STIRRING ADDRESS
Rev. Geo. Kercher, pastor of the
Mt. Joy Lutheran Church, and
President of the Lancaster Luther-
an Ministerium, opened Education
Week at Elizabethtown College by
delivering an inspirational address
on “Youth and Citizenship.” His
address expressed the sentiment of
Armistice Day very fittingly, for he
made an appeal for a larger citi-

The students were very favorably
impressed.

STARTS NOV. 18
MOUNT JOY’'S PROPORTION FOR
THE SUPPORT OF THIS WORK
IS $3,019.32—THAT'S OUR
GOAL.
Once each year, during Welfare
Week, the thousands who live in
health and comfort are reminded of
those whom fortune bas struck down.
While Lancaster County has gone its
prosperous and happy way, many have
fallen by the roadside.
5380 patients were admitted to the
Lancaster General Hospital during the
past year, of which 2194 were county
residents.
2120 patients were admitted into St.
Joseph's Hospital during the past year,
of which 762 were county patients.
Rossmere Sanatorium the tubercu-
losis hospital, has been filled to capa-
city during the past year. Of the 51
patients who are being given the very
best of treatment in their fight a-
gainst the great white plague, 21 are
residents of the county.
