A recent letter to his parents, AL
hderman and Mrs. Edward j. Hilton,
| from William G.. Hilton, tells Vividly
/ of his experiences in chasing a sub
marine and of his being storm toss
ed on the sea. His visit to several is
lands in company with shipmates
was an enjoyable time. December
81 in company with two shipmates,
we started on a 36-hour liberty, go
ing from our ship to His Majesty's
| dockyard, Bermuda and thence
walking to the little town of Somer-
! set. 1t was a beautiful stroll. We
! stopped at little inn and had lunch
| and pleasant chat with a charming
| English girl. We then hired a team
! and drove from Somerset to the dock
and ferried over to Hamilton, where
we got shaved and washed, also ate
and attended a dance at the Navy
| Club. 1t was perfectly enjoyable,
| really fitting end to a beautiful,
clear aay."
Hilton continues, telling about the
dance and says that when the clock
| struck the hour of 10, the lights
were suddenly extinguished and then
again the room was flooded with
| light, while the entire company sang

chest"
I'VE left Bermuda for the Azores,
January 8, starting out on a voyage
which proved to be of a perilous
nature. We were eighteen days at
| sea, storm-tossed in a 90-mile gale
for five days and nights, enduring
sleepless nights, water flooding the
compartments and running all over
the decks, even over the highest
part of the main structure of the
pilot house. Eating at irregular times
and working always when not on
watch every other four hours, and
then to top it off, we were towing
one of the sub chasers, and it broke
loose eight times in midocean, two
times in one day. 1t sometimes took
eight to ten hours to pick it up. One
chaser and the entire crew were lost
while some of our boats lost men
over the sides, never to be found.
! Our chaser lost one man. We, how
ever, were fortunate. One night with
the sea running sixty feet high and
wind at about seventy miles per hour
! about Z o'clock the whistle blew,
Tow line broke, all hands on the
quarterback to pick up chaser At
o'clock next morning we started on
our course again, soaking wet, cold,
hungry and sleepy and then to go

VXTHAT grand and glorious
Wv feeling 1t is to get out in the
open after such q severe WIN
ter as we have just experienced.
And the first thought of most Oh US
after the nice weather arrives is to
go into the country. Harrisburgers
are blessed with beautiful woods
and valleys and meadows and the
like, all of which make for delight
full hikes in every direction from the
city.
OF all the walks into the country
there seems to be a universal opinion
that Wildwood is the best. Many
will say it is inaccessible, but ie'
us see If that is so. of course, much
depends on the length of walk, de-
sired, and we will assume a toui
or five mile distance.
AS most every one knows. the
present entrance to WILDWOOD Is
vania Railroad and just beyond
Paxton creek. Beginning at Maclay
street, you have the choice of traV-
cling on the cinder road, which Is
always in good condition, or taking
well-defined path along Paxton
creek. The creek path is almost
completely hidden from the road by
hundreds of thorn apple trees which
will be O mass of white blossoms a
few weeks hence. This path is not
more than fifty feet from the road
until just below Division street
where the creek begins a series OF
turns, and as you proceed above Di-
vision you seem to drift farther
from civilization as you find yourself
among a splendid growth of elms
pin oaks and thorn apples. About
$50 yards above Division street or
the creek path there is another op-
portunity to choose between two
ways-the one along the creek and
the other across to the west. BY
continuing along the creek you will
cross the stream twice over rustic
bridges which were located to elm
mate a detour of the creek on the
old Monongahela Melting Company
land. and by proceeding further you
will cross over the cinder road at the
second service bridge below the
breast of the dam and by going
eastwardly about one hundred yards
you arrive at the path which ex-
tends along the hillside on the old
Forster tract to the breast of the
dam. The dam can also be reached
by the path referred to as going
eastwardly from q point about one
hundred and fifty yards above Divt-
sion street. This section extends
through a thicket of wild grapevines
and brings one out at the picnic paw

Tomorrow the ministers in the
different churches will assist in the
present drive for the enrolment of
men to work on the farms. Harris
burg and Dauphin county will not
be behind in this great undertaking.
Sunday school superintendents
have also been urged to arrange rail-
lies for the presentation of the facts
of the farm labor situation. The Sc
rious shortage of farm help threat
ems to reduce greatly the agricul-
I tural production of the state. Under
direction of the U. s. Department of
Labor and with the cooperation of
the Pennsylvania Committee of Pub
lie Safety efforts are being made to
induce men having farm experience
but now engaged in other work to
return to the farms, at least tenn
porarily.
The Need of Help
The churches and Sunday schools
can help greatly in carrying the farm
message to men and young men. Spe-
cial appeals for church support have
been made by John c. Frazee, u. S:
Reserve director, and the Rev. Frank
b. Lynch, state director for churches
of the Committee of Public Safety.
In many sections four minute men
will sound the call, Back to the
FARMS" during the coming week.
Farm labor will be enrolled at the
following places:
Y. M. c. A. building, Harrisburg.
Motor Club of Harrisburg, 109

George M. Harry, Third and Wal
nut streets.

Workers Necessary
The above places were designated
yesterday for enrolment of the pres
ent drive for farm labor by Richard
c. Haldeman, director of this coun-
ty for the United States Public Serv-
ice Reserve, which is working in
conjunction with the United States
Boys Working Reserve, represented
here by Prof. c. B. Eager, Jr. The
drive that will be on for several
weeks is state wide and there is ev-
every indication that Dauphin county
as has been its record, will go over
the top on this enrolment.
Mr.. Haldeman said yesterday:
There is no doubt about it that to
win the war food must be provided;
for where would our boys be to-day
or where would the allies be in the
awful battle now going on if our men
were not properly nourished, and it

Automobile Prices
Steadily Increase

T. j. Toner. sales director, of Chal-
mers Motor Car Company, warns pub
lie automobile cost may return to
level of 1912-15. He says:
America demands the genuine old
fashioned, high-priced peace - not
made in Germany. And that means
there is no short cut to victory.
'If in needing these demands, the
government continues to insist on a
Stacking of manufacture, the automo-
bile industry must respond. But such
a drastic order Immediately increases
our overhead expenses and a raise in
price is inevitable.
a raise is no arbitrary action on the
part of the manufacturers. The pub
lie should understand that such
move is but the natural sequence of
prevailing conditions.
THE government at Washington
has plenty of money; raw materials
are abundant-but labor is at a pre-
MUM. There has been drainage on
man-power the world over, and there
is serious shortage of workingman
power in the United States.
THE great Maxwell plants could
readily maintain normal production
and at the same time turn out trac-
tors for the government. The highly
efficient Chalmers factory could easily
keep on at maximum. production and
still manufacture vast storehouses of
munitions for Uncle Sam.
Both of these things could be ac-
complished perhaps without Erecting

that the government sees to conserve.

a returning troop ship out of the

fire on the sub. Whether she sunk
it or not l do not know as we were

for action but never came into it. We

lion and passes by the eVer-howing
fountain whose sprinkling magnesia
water is carried 1000 feet through
three-quarter-inch pipe from the ra-
vine directly to the east. After the
thirst is quenched proceed directly
across the old and original Wetzels
Swamp to the hillside path and then
turn northwardly the dam. Imight
add that the area from the fountain
to the bluff was formerly a veritable
lake, where many wild ducks were
shot in years gone by. In 1907 we
drained these twenty-five acres with
q Itberal-sized ditch down the CEN
ter with several cross-drains.
II is also possible to reach the
hillside path farther south by cross
ing from the creek path at the lower
end of the baseball field and follow
the old township road that formerly
provided trafficway from Crooked
Hill to the old canal road. Above
the breast of the dam there are two
paths, one on either side of the
lake, but the one on the east side
Is the most used, principally because
1t adds an additional 1900 feet to
the hike to reach the path on the
west side of the lake. The paths
are now in fine condition considering
the early season. At several places
along the east side of the lake there
must be done some cribbing as the
heavy west winds cause considerable
erosion.
Wildwood seems to be harboring
more birds each year. and right now
there are many of the following:
robins, flickers, song sparrows, black
birds, starlings, meadow larks, quail,
Kentucky cardinals, theb luest Dlue-
birds and many others.
There are thousands of frogs and
their first appearance last Tuesday

From Maclay street to the head
of the lake is about four and a half
miles by the paths described, and it
is possible to get a Rockville car
every twenty minutes, which can
be reached by going via Linglestown
road under the Pennsylvania Rail-
road main line through a subway,
which is the only safe way to cross
over above Maclay street bridge.
For persons who do not care for a
long walk in Wildwood it will be a
good plan to take a Fourth street
or Rockville car and get off at Divi-
sion street and use bridge over the
pennsylvania Railroad and go either
by road or path to picnic woods
where there are always picnic tables
ana benches and good cold water.
After a good fill of country air q
return via Division street can be
made.
