Pertinent "Port" Paragraphs.

Port Jervis is right up to date.
They issue printed score cards with
the names of the players on it.
Tracco Park" 1" is a new amuse-
ment place. 1t is located about
mile beyond the old ball grounds,
which have been converted into
building lots, recently.
Nobody has a half holiday in
Port on Saturday. It's railroad
town and everybody works. That's
why they have such slim crowds at
the Saturday afternoon games. -
Port Jervis business man.
Port Jervis is a great centre for
Joy ride parties. About 1000 motor
cars go through the city daily. On
the main street of the town, almost
every other business place is a
garage.
Reporters experience in getting a
shave: Barber (After the 'scrape'
was over) Did you come with the
ball team?"
Reporter: YES"
Barber: Fifteen cents, please"
Moving picture shows come high
in Port. Forty-minute entertain
ments are charged at the rate of ten
cents. Children under twelve, five
cents. The proprietors salve the long
suffering public, however, by giving
their patrons solid-silver CD soup
spoon in exchange for ten admission
checks.
I" Port is an annex of New York.
"Barkers" live and flourish there.
One man, Saturday night, did land
office business selling handkerchiefs
at for a quarter. Oh you hay
fever!
They have the Salvation Army in
Port" too. Winsome lassies sing,
strong-throated Pauls and Peters
portray the wrath to come in burn
ing words. For be it known that
Port" is typical York State wide
open town.
