THE MOUNT JOY BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY, LANCASTER CO., PA.

EDITOR'S NOTE:
This is the ninth of a series of arti-
cles designed to stir interest in Penn-
sylvania’s advantages to the tourist.
Prepared under the direction of War-
ren Van Dyke, Secretary of Highways,
this series aims to outline briefly many
of the places and scenes which are
being recognized by travelers from
other states as outstanding items in i-
tineraries of the United States.

A tented city springs up each sum-
mer in the northern reaches of Leba-
non County, in the shadow of Blue
Mountain.
Indiantown Gap is expressive of the
history and the nature of the place. A
break in the long mountain wall wide
enough to permit a stream and a road
to pass through. Here Indians used
bubbling St. Joseph Springs in the
pleasant valley between Blue Moun-
tain and Second Mountain, where fields
of maize ripened in August sunlight.
About 21 miles east of Harrisburg
and 34 miles west of Hamburg, on U.
S. Route 22, is the junction of Route
343 at Harper Tavern. Turn north and
watch for another junction on the left
which leads directly into the Military
Reservation of the Pennsylvania Na-
tional Guard. From Pottsville the ap-
proach is made over Route 443 to Lick-
dale, Route 343 and connecting roads.
Excellent roads lead out in all direct-
jons.
The tented city of khaki-clad citizen
soldiers will appear in August, a con-
centration of 25,000 to 30,000 troops
bent upon preserving peace by keeping
in readiness for the hostile advance of
invaders. Part of these will be station-
ed at Mount Gretna, 15 miles south of
Indiantown, which served for many
years as a military establishment and
is the site of a summer cottage colony
widely known for beauty and moder-
ate temperature.
Some 2,000 acres at Indiantown lie
south of the mountain. Kitchens, mess
halls, bath houses, and offices to ac-
commodate three regiments are install-
ed. More are in the making. Water
supply adequate for 60,000 men is pro-
vided.
Between Blue and Second Mountain
the artillery has more than 8,000 acres
jn which to perfect gunnery practice.
Cavalry, perhaps most romantic
branch of the service, if the air service
has not won that distinction, marches
from Mount Gretna to maneuver thru
the wooded hills and dales.
Both Indiantown and Mount Gretna
offer pleasing rewards for the journey
as well as an object lesson in patriot-
ism and preparedness.

The Bureau of Publicity and Inform-
ation of the Pennsylvania Department
of Highways, Harrisburg, will gladly
answer inquiries concerning routes and
destinations on receipt of a postal card
request.

America’s most useful industry is now facing

Under the Constitution of this country, you have the right as an American citizen to
engage in any decent, lawful business. Suppose you had done so - - - - and had worked
hard - - - invested money to provide a service. which your friends and neighbors desired
and needed.
What would you say if a law were proposed in Congress NOT designed as it should be,
to keep your enterprise in line with honest business procedure,
so that you would shortly face ruin and ultimately have to hand your business over to the
government?
Do you believe that such things can happen in this, a free country, where for genera-
tions the outstanding theme of all governmental action regarding private commerce and,
