MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK.

N MOOAN oAN AA4AA l k2A\AAs "A
~
There has been no special mention
Of the happenings of this place for the
past two or three weeks, except the
decoration accorded one of our brave
soldiers, C. j. Rathbun, Jr, yet other
things of interest are occurring, and
Mountain Lake Park is still on the
map.
The long-hoped for change of the
Park ownership, going from the As
sociation into the hands of the Mis-
sion Board of the Methodist Episcopal
church, is nearing consummation and
representative of one of the soci-
cites will soon be here to arrange for
the future development of the Park
and all that it represents. The old
Association has done good work, max
ing Mountain Lake Park what it is to-
day. 1t is one of the many religious
resorts of the country, known far and
wide for its many attractions and as
one of the few centres of the Chautau-
qua movement in the early days of
that organization. Thinking back over
period of thirty years or little
more those of us who are slightly ad-
vanced along life's pathway can we'll
remember when the entire ground
now composing the Park was a cattle
range, mass of alders along the
creeks which flow throug it and which
did not produce a penny of revenus ex-
cept in taxes paid the county and
state at the rate of about two dollars
per acre. The promoters of the Park
dreamed dreams, and they have come
true to a certain extent. Had there
been less opposition to many of the
Associations plans and more team
work on the part Of the property own
ers the probabilities are that the Park
would have been even more popular
than it now is with the hundreds who
assemble here year after year.
Many of our summer residents have
returned to their city homes for the
winter, yet many of them are yet with
US, enjoying the beautiful autumn.
The harvest moon this week adds
much to the splendor of the beauties
of nature.
Rev. c. f. Bissell began his second
year as pastor of tine NJ f. church
here, preaching two excellent sermons
for US on Sunday.
In my many visits throughout the
county | find most excellent crops of
grain and potatoes. But Judge Har-
vey, in the North Glade community,
seems to have monopoly in the apple
crop, his trees having borne many
choice apples. He will have upwards
of hundred bushels. He gave me
four of the 1918 crop of two varieties
which had been well preserved in the
cave erected for that purpose.
At Steyer, this county, which is
! located on the line of the Western
Maryland railroad and in the valley
of the Potomac River, upon a recent
visit l observed upon the ground at
| the station lumber and other mater
lal, including an engine and boiler, to
be utilized in sinking an oil well in
that vicinity. Who the parties are
back Of the enterprise, l am unable
to state, but have learned that suf-
ficient capital will be forthcoming to
put the proposed well as deep as will
be deemed sufficient for the purposes
intended.

SAYS open DOOR,
BUILT UP NATION
Claxton Urges Federal Fund
TO Americanize the
Foreigner
By Associated Press.

Philadelphia, April "a Asserting
that we would to-day be a third
class nation il we had stopped immi-
grafton in the middle of the last CEN
tury in response to popular agita-
tion at that time and declaring that
our open door" policy has been the
thing which has made the United
States the greatest and richest ma
tion in the world, Philander p. Clax-
ton, United States Commissioner of
education, advocated a Federal ap-
preparation for the Americanization
of the foreigner within our gates at
last nights session of Schoolmen's
Week at the University of Pennsyl-
vania.
Dr. Claxton said the need of Ameri-
icanization was a more vital problem
than most people realized and cited
statistics to prove that many men in
the environments could not read Eng
lish well enough to read a newspa-
per or write well enough to write a
letter.
He said that the first step was to
teach the English language. The
little children learn it easily, but it is
a different matter to instruct those
who are over school age, he declared.
DR.. ClaXton came out strongly against
the passage of any law by the State
compelling the inhabitants to learn
English, claiming that such a thing
cannot be forced upon an unwilling
people.

Frank Erne describes his second
Orpheum program for boxing on
next Tuesday evening, as follows:
II have frankie Mcguire and
Mike Uraine in the windup, and it
should result in n great scrap, as
Mcguire is training as he never
trained before; he has improved 100
per cent. since he appeared in Har-
risburg last. When he boxed Jack
Andrews and knocked him off in
the first round he did not have a
chance to show any of his boxing
ability, outside of terrific punch,
but with Uraine he will not win so
easily, as Uraine is sparring the best
talent in the country, including Her.
man Miller, Henry Hauber, Battling
Kopin, Tommy Ferguson, Joe Welsh,
K. o. Mike Russell, Joe Hosic, and
he fought Jack McCarron and Billy
Kramer to a standstill. Harrisburg
fans know what Mcguire can do, as
he is a big favorite here.
"In the semi, Jack Wolpert will
meet Chick Hayes, of Philadelphia.
Wolpert will be remembered in Har-
risburg by his great fight with Dick
Conlin, the Altoona goose fighter
Conlin had been winning consistent
ly in Harrisburg until he met VOL
pert and they put up wonderful
battle, with Conlin having u shade,
until the last round when Wolpert
had Conlin at his mercy and finally
knocked him out. Chick Hayes is
one of the best 110-pound boys in
Philadelphia; he has boxed such boys
as Bobby Scanlon, Joe Jackson, Kid
Wolf and fought Battling Murray to
a great draw.
The main preliminary is between
Nate Isaacman and Young O'Leary,
of Philadelphia. O'Leary was con-
sidercd the best boy in the Navy,
as he defeated all the boys he met,
and he held Johnny Viggi to six
round draw, although Niggi had
about fifteen pounds on him. Isaac

At the chapel exercises yesterday
morning, DIR. w. A. Granville, presi-
dent of Gettysburg College, gave an
interesting address to the Tech High
school students, advising them as to
why they should finish their course
at Tech and then go to college. DIR.
Granville gave some interesting
statistics to his hearers showing that
the average earning capacity of the
college man was six hundred dollars
more per year than the man without
the college education. AT five per
cent. this would be an investment of
$4,000 or an earning of $4,000 per
year through a four-year college
course. Reduced to Il daily wage, 1T
means that every college student is
getting a position worth over $14 a
day to attend college. What high
school graduate will refuse such &.
position?" he queried. He interpersed
his remarks with plenty of wit that
held the attention of the student
body until the end.
