Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-12-18

riding comfort you can't beat a Cadil-
lac, / don't care what you pay for a
car. The Cadillac eight-cylinder en-
gine makes automobiling a pleasure
over any kind of road because of its
unusual hill-climbing power-in fact
its Incompatible road ability
l overheard my name mentioned in
the lobby of hotel last night and
walking up to the gentleman / asked
Who is this fellow Sherlock Holmes,
Jr.? He replied Some man the
Telegraph is offering s25 reward for
his capture" l was going to ask him a
few other questions but he was called
to the telephone.
l dropped in the Bouquet Shop last
night on my way to the Majestic. Take
it from me, friend of mine, if you are
going to give flowers this Christmas
you will find them in this shop. | saw
several baskets of old-fashioned flow
ers from the ladies' gardens
dulas in baskets that made me think
of the old garden back home. They
are working overtime filling orders for
plants, wreathes and cut flowers.
l wonder if the young fellow at the
corner Of Walnut and Third remem-
bers selling me a Saturday Evening
Post yesterday?
| was standing in front of Is South
Market Square yesterday and noticed
Il stream of young people going up
stairs, so l said to myself. I'll go up
too. l landed in the School of Com
merce. l found a modern up-to- date
school with efficient teachers in every
department. The boy or girl who
fails to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity to get a business training at
this school is making a big mistake.
| was told that all graduates We're now
employed and they could place many
more.
1t takes time to learn the town and
people but / am going 10 give you a
run for that s25. You can count on
that.
/ made a little excursion to the
plant of the Pennsylvania Milk Prod
ucts Company, met Mr.. Nissley an dhe
explained to me the system they en-
ploy to give the people here a pure
food product. This plant is one of
the best equipped | have Wis
tied in my travels and they
arc making every effort to furnish
Harrisburg with milk and butter that
have stood the highest test.
| had a big time yesterday feeding
the squirrels in the Capitol grounds.
A little lady in dark blue suit and
long black coat trimmed with beaver
fur was trying to make some pictures
of the squirrels I was feeding. / am
sure she failed, as Old Soils smiling
face is necessary to get kodak pic
lures. If she succeeded she has a
picture of Sherlock
/ am perfectly willing to admit the
City Star Laundry has made a hit
with me. Honest Injun When I
opened my package of laundry they
returned to me, l thought sure they
had made a mistake and sent me new
shirts and collars. This is one thing
am fussy about and when laundry
can please me they have to go some.
Guess I will visit their plant and look
it over before l leave.
The young fellow who served me at
Forrey's soda fountain yesterday GER
tainly knows how to mix a drink. l
will walk ten blocks out of my way to
be served at this fountain.
I had an argument last night with a
travelling salesman. We were discuss
ing electricity when he asked me to
name the Lighted town in the
country. not counting the larger cities.
1 promptly replied Montgomery, Ala.
/ haven't any interests in Montgome cry,
but I just mention it to show you how
a well-lighted town impresses a strang-
er. Show me the man who uses cleo
trio signs and lots of electric lights in
his place of business, and / will show
YOU n live one every time. The mer-
chant who has failed to do this should
get in touch with the Harrisburg
Light and Power Company right now.
| have a lot more to says to you,
but the editor threatens to throw me
in the cellar If l write any more.
Guess | will have to wait and tell you
Monday.
You know the object of this fea-
ture is to give the readers of the Tele-
graph q few days diversion and the
only way you can keep posted is by
reading my stories from day to day.
The contest is on for the S25 this
afternoon from to 6 and s to 10 to-
night At night | will only be sub
iect to capture while visiting the Ma
iestic theater. Nothing doing on
Sunday. but the contest will be on
again Monday. The hours Monday
will be from to p. IN. and to 10
