Although Eastern High School
during the past two years has
failed to win a baseball or foot
ball championship. or to make
much of a name for itself in
basketball and track, yet there
is one little athlete enrolled at
the Capitol Hill institution who
always attracts attention by his
brilliant work. He is Walter NJ.
Parker. OF 1926 Illinois avenue,
who is at present in his third
year at school. and a likely
choice for the football captaincy
next season. Parker is even
smaller than Micky Guy. OF
Western, but is possessed of just
as much grit and speed. He
weighs 1l9 pounds and stands
Ave feet seven inches. Three
years ago Parker attended Bust
ness High School. and made the
football eleven easily. the fol-
lowing season he transferred his
affections TO Eastern and played
left end on the eleven and second
base on the nine. Last fall he
was Eastern's right half and
quarter. and in the spring played
third base on the ball nine. Par
ker is the best all-round athlete
at Eastern. and is very popular
with his teammates and class
mates. He also manages to keep

TUNEFUL OPERA
AT SPRINGS PARK

There IS no doubt that the Aeolian
Opera Company now at Bran6ywine
Springs Park has entered upon sue
cessful season. There is general interest
among amusement lovers in the organi-
zaton. and this will grow as more people
become familiar with its good work. The
public is already becoming interested IN
the principals OF the company just as
they become interested in the members OF
stock company In a dramatic play
house.
On account of the cool weather which
makes it extremely difficult 20 sing in
the open air. tho members OF the Aeolian
Company have not yet had an opportu-
nifty of showing the best they can do.
though they have showed the best pre-
sentation OF opera given here in long
time. AS the evenings become warmer
the work will be much easier and the
company will have ample opportunity to
display its splendid qualities.
The Chimes OF Normandy" will be
continued each afternoon and evening at
the park this week There IS no prettior
or more tuneful opera among the comic
operas The company is in every way
capable and the scenic Equipment ample.

ADVOCATES USE
OF ROAD DRAG

Apropos Of the agitation begun in
New Castle county for systematic
dragging of the dirt roads of the coun-
ty, the following from the West Ches-
ter Local News is not amiss.
A new modern road drag is being
much used in this and other sections of
the State recently to repair the I'M
macadamized public highways, and is
said to be a success. The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company's representa-
tive at a recent meeting Of the Ches-
ter County Road Supervisors Associa-
ton offered to assist in repairing the
public highways adjacent to their lines
and recommended the drag mentioned
as a good instrument to assist in the
work
A Kennett township man states that
one Of these drags can be made by any
handy farmer at four dollars or less
apiece. This does not seem TO be a
very expensive piece of machinery.
over in Lancaster county the new drag
has been strongly recommended by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture and by supervisors and farmers
generally. It can be made and oper-
sted by any one. Less than FIVE dol
lars will pay the cost Of construction,
and half-hour's use of it after rain
will keep dirt roads for distance of a
mile in better condition than most
macadam roads.
A road maintained by the drag is in
perfect condition 1t has an excellent
crown and a hard and smooth surface
which sheds the water readily. Ruts are
obliterated and mudholes unknown. SUI
pervisors have found that they car
pay farmers from thirty to fifty cents
an hour to operate the drags after
each rain and maintain a mile of dir
