THE MOST ENGAGED GIRL
By Gertrude M. Price, The Day
Book Moving Picture Expert,
"Hullo sweetheart will you
marry me?"
Girls, girls girls-how'd you
like to have the reputation of be-
ing: the most engaged girl" liv-
ing.
Well that's the story being told
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1912-11-12

. OF ALL is A MOVIES STAR
and you would never guess unless
you happen to know that Miss
Kroell is one of the busiest lead
ing women in the moving picture
business.
She is a born coquette-on the
stage. It is no trick at all for her
to pick off the hearts of her many,
many suitors.
And she says it's really good
fun seeing how many ways mere
man finds to. tell the old, old
story.
But it would never, never do
for you to think Miss Kroell a
firt. The fact is, that being made
love to is the chief business of this
fascinating movie" girl, who is,
so often cast for the girl in the
love scene of a moving picture
play that now she has won the
reputation of being ''the most en-
gagged girl in the business.
81 don't know why I so often
have to be the girl" said Miss
Kroel to me in a half-resentful,
half-laughing voice.
Really, my friends say they
think 1 might take some other
part sometimes for change"
The Selig coquette didn't say,
but it was very evident that the
directors were not of the fem
mime gender. Also it was no diff
ficult matter to guess why she is
so often cast for the 'girl in the
0l1estiOn."

FINE pLusls.

Mr.. W. T. Kane, Of Fallsburg.
has the finest crop OF damson plums
in the Sandy Valley. They are very
large, entirely free from blemish.
and when fully ripe, will be very
large. Their fine appearance is al
most entirely due to the excellent
care which has been taken OF the
tree and its fruit. Mr.. Kane used
the spray intelligently and in this
way kept off the curculio and the
scale. He also has a fine lot of
apples which he has treated with
the same care for the health of the
fruit. Mr.. Kane's success with
crops of all kinds is ample evil
dence that book" farming pays.

TO HAVE DAY AND NIGHT

This is Promised for the City in
the Near Future.
Lancaster Electric Light Company
Preparing TO Increase Capacity of
Plant For Next Spring.

1t now seems to be a practically
assured fact that within the next four
months the people Of Lancaster will
be supplied with "a hour (day and
night electric service for both light
and power, furnished by the Lancas
ter Electric Light and Power company
which is to be reorganized and perhaps
re-capitalized.
The plant is to b1 very materially
enlarged by an addition to the build
ing. and the Installation of extra
machinery-one big unit, representing
another engine and dynamo Of
sufficient capacity to supply the
amount of electrical power needed
for both light and motive power in
the city for years to come. This
will represent an additional outlay Of
about sixteen to twenty thousand
dollars and will furnish day and
night service.
It is the intention, after the change
takes place. which will be probably
near the 1st of May, to have an up
town office, with a manager and
competent book keeper in charge and
a full lire of electrical supplies will
be carried such as lighting fixtures
of all kinds, heating devices, cooking
utensils, vacuum cleaners, electric
irons, washing machines etc.
Before the change takes place it is
necessary to obtain the authorization
therefor from the state rate commits
sion, and to secure this the company
must be able to show the commission
contracts for service from intending
users as to the magnitude of the
service required. To that end the
company is now having yearly con
tracts signed by the present users OF
the service and one half or more OF
their customers have executed such
contracts during the past few days.
This is something that the people
of Lancaster have long wished for and
there seems no reason to doubt that il
will be much appreciated.
