B= FOUR PEOPLE INJURED IN MISHAP SATURDAY Two children were seriously in- jured, and two other persons were hurt when an automobile struck a tree on the Harrisburg pike at Lan- disville at 3 P. M. Saturday. They were admitted to St. Joseph’s hos- pital. The victims, all of Mechanicsburg Cumberland county, were Mary Mar garet Miller, ten, fractures of the skull and nose and internal injuries; her brother, Neil Miller, nine, frac- ture of the right leg; their aunt, Miss Olive Brink, twenty-eight, fracture of the right leg and lacer- ations of the face, and Miss Bessie M. Bear, forty-nine, driver of the car, lacerations of the face and bruises. According to Highway Patrolman John A. Aumon, the car was travel- ing toward Lancaster, when it skid- ded on the wet highway, and crash- ed into a tree. The party was en- route to the Baker hospital, North Duke St., to visit Dr. Luella Miller, of Mechanicsburg, mother of the two children. The four persons, who were un- conscious when taken from the wreckage, were carried to the home of Paul Weaver. Dr. J. S. Kéndig administered first-aid before the St. Joseph’s hospital ambulance arrived. ees. GOOD ATTENDANCE AT CHILD HEALTH CLINIC : The Child Health Clinic was held in the American Legion Home. There were 32 babies, 22 mothers and one father, there were 5 new ; 7 31st Watch for Detailed Ad, Next Week J. B. KELLER & BRO KEYSTONE GARAGE C."COVER, Propr. in advance, will be charged. Since the loans call for a first lien on the crop as security, the borrow- er frequently has to procure waiv- { ers from prior mortgages or rights. Local Farmers May Now Apply (From page 1) Interest at 5 1-2 per cent deducted If the applicant is a tenant, or is under contract for farming land deed or so-called crop contract, or has given a prior mortgage on his 1933 crops, the regulations state he must secure the waivers of the ac- tual owners of the land, and or all prior mortgage holders. If the ap- plicant is the owner of the land and farms it with tenants or share crop pers, waivers of such tenants or share croppers must be secured. The regulations further specify that the person waiving his prior rights must agree not to dispose of his rent note mortgage or other security without first having obtained the written consent of a duly authorized agent of the Secretary of Agriculture. The regulations make it unlawful for any person to dispose of or as- sist in disposing of any crops given as security for any crop loan, ex- cept for the account of the Secre- tary of Agriculture and provide for fine and imprisonment for violation of such regulation. The regulations also require that each borrower agree to plant a garden ’ for his home use and sufficient acreage to furnish feed for his livestock. Farmers who apply for loans this year from the $90,000,000 fund au- thorized by Congress for crop pro- duction loans, should refuse to pay any fees for help in the preparation of their loan applications, it was declared by S. M. Wass, Field Su- pervisor of the Crop Production Loan Office, stationed at Harriss, burg. The law enacted by Congress this year specifically prohibits the charg ing of any fee for the preparation of the application and provides for fine or imprisonment, or both, for any person found guilty of assess- ing such a charge. Notarial fees, however, are still necessary, as are fees charged by the county record- ing official for recording the lien given as security for the loan, and for searching the records for prior liens. Prospective borrowers write to Washington for applica- tion blanks and detailed informa- tion about the loans but may get that material direct from their County Agent. The application blank this year requires a statement of the amount of the loan desired, the number of acres for which seed and fertilizer are to be purchased, the amount desired for feed, and the amount desired for fuel and oil for tractors. The application also requires a statement of the amount of the loan which is to be used for making repairs or for the purchase of other supplies. The sum total of these several items must not exceed the need not the regulations. A legal description of the land on which the crops are to be plant- ed is also required, together with a statement of the acreage of crops grown by the applicant in 1932, and the vields obtained. The applicant is required to file a statement of the seed and feed on hand at the time of applying for a loan. To obtain the loan, the applica- tion blank stipulates, the applicant must agree to use the money loaned only for the purchase of supplies necessary for crop production in 1933 on the land described. Pros- pective borrowers must also state that they have neither the means nor the credit with which to secure these production supplies, and that unless the loan is granted, they will be unable to farm in 1933. Significant differences between the 1933 and 1932 regulations gov- erning crop production loans are that this year the maximum per- mitted to any one borrower is $300, and that, to qualify for a loan, the borrowers must agree to reduce their acreage of cash crops 30 per cent below their 1932 acreage provided their farming operations are above a specified minimum. As in 1932, a first lien on the 1933 crop Is required. Loans are to be repaid on or before October 31, 1933. The regulations make it unlawful for any person to dispose of or assist in disposing of any crops given as se- curity for any crop loan, except for the account of the Secretary of Agriculture and provide for fine and imprisonment for violation of such. requirement. The regulations require each borrower to agree to plant a garden for home use and to plant sufficient acerage to provide necessary livestock feed. registrations.

Shiffer—Kauffman William Carl Shiffer, son of Mr. and Mrs. I. A. Shiffer, of Elizabeth- town, and Miss Grace G. Kauffman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Arthur Kauffman, of Milton Grove, were married at the parsonage of the Evangelical church, Annville, by Rev. W. A. C. Eby, the pastor. The ring ceremony was used and the attendants were Miss Verna Shotz- berger, of Rapho, and Stanley Moy- er, of Manheim. The bride was at- tired in a hyacinth blue suit. The bride and groom were classmates at Elizabethtown High School and were graduated in the class of 1930. The bride was in training at the General hospital and was a practi- cal nurse. A wedding luncheon was served at the home of the bride to the immediate families. After a trip they will go to housekeeping along the Ridge road. Joy. We are indeed grateful to you for | your kind patronizing visits to our church, and for your generous liberal- | ity in heeding our solicitors’ plea from | time to time, and in grateful acknow- | ledgement thereof. We consider it our | duty to caution you, the hereafter | stated condition, which we have rea- son to believe justifies its publication. On several occasions one of our ex- pastors here has canvassed the town soliciting funds. And while we do not consider his action increminating to us if he justly states the purpose and object of his appeal. But if in the event he do so, as representing Mace- donia A. M. E. Church, of Mount Joy, his action then becomes an infringe- ment of injustice to you and to us also. | Therefore, we wish to advise that no | person or persons other than our own members, who are known residents of our town, are authorized, commissioned or permitted to solicit in the name of the afore mentioned church. | And we further advise that the pas- tor, officers and members of said church, do not concur with any so- | licitations by any other than is herein | stipulated. Nor do said pastor, officers or members of The Macedonia A. M. E. | church, profit directly nor indirectly therefrom, and we advise our friends and citizens to endeavor asserting the! purpose and object of such solicitors | that it may not be assumed to be for the benefit of our church, nor the en- | deavors of our members ina | { | | ed.

Its two subsidiary companies, the Pine Grove Electric Light, Heat and Power Company and The Carlisle Gas and Water Company have also filed new tariffs. These new General Tariffs, replacing existing Ceneral Tariffs, make changes in the charges for elec- tric service, as well as modifications of the Rules and Regulations, These changes, together with other rate changes for electric and gas service already made during the past. year, will in the aggregate result in a reduction of approximately $1,000,000 per year to consumers affected. It is estimated that over 270.000 electric consumers in the Company's entire territory will be bene- fitted. This group includes mc:t lie consumers previously billed under Standard Rates classified as Residential, Dgmestic, Rural, Conunercial, Commercial Cooking, Small Power and Large Power.
