wave of her magic wand. There they
will receive the three Wise Men of
the East, portrayed in this case by
prominent llarrisburgers, who will
be guided to the lowly manger by the
Star of Bethlehem, shining overhead.
These Wise Men, bearing frank in
cense and myrrh. will make obeis-
ance and do homage to the Newborn
King, as in the story of the long ago
Christmas morning. the distance,
the ten shepherds with their sheep
will add the fitting climax of reality
TO the picture. In this case the
shepherds will be well-known Har-
risburgers, and the sheep will be
products of Dauphin county also,
having been secured from the Bon
nymead farms.
Two other factors which will en-
ter largely into the success of the
tableauX will be the musical num-
bers and accompaniment, and the
electrical effects. These electrical
effects will eliminate in display in
which the words Joy to the World"
will blaze forth from an electric
sign while the carol by the same
name is rendered by the Municipal
Band and the several choruses.
Besides the instrumental music by
the Municipal Band, which has vol
unteered its services for the oc-
casion, there will be vocal numbers
by a chorus from the Wednesday
Club, Girl Scouts, a Juvenile chorus
secured by the Department of Spe7
cial Activities of the School Board,
and the City Choir of 15O voices.
The City Park Department also is
cooperating in all the arrangements,
while a number of civic organizations
are behind the movement.
The pageant is designed to dem
onstrate the real significance of
Christmas. at the same time fur
nishing a pleasant means for a COM
munity observance of the religious
holiday that will appeal to specta-
tors and participants alike.

DRIVES AUTO UP
CAPITOL STEPS
Overland Takes Five PaSscn-
gers Over Bumpy Road
to Test Springs

At noon to-day Il new Model 4
overland accomplished demon
stration that is new to Harrisburg
ers. With five passengers in the car,
driven by Carl Hanson, president of
the Overland-ilarrisbur Company,
it climbed the front steps leading to
the main entrance of the Capitol
from State street.
Making a flying start, the car was
driven up over the curb ana on up
the steps, reaching the top without
q stop or a mishap and due to the
new "TripleX Spring" suspension
that is an exclusive overland fea-
ture, with very little jar.
This new spring suspension, known
rs the three point spring suspension,
is claimed to give greater riding
comfort over exceedingly rough
roads, negotiating bumps and ruts
that are considered almost impossi-
Bile.
1t was for the purpose of testing
out the springs that the demon
Stration OF climbing the Capitol steps
was staged to-day These steps are
long and steep and the curb at the
State street entrance is of the ordi-
nary height. With the snow on the
ground, the Overland started out
without a slip and went right at the
steps and on up without a skid. The
steps had not been cleaned of the
snow that fell on them all day yes
terday which made the trip ever
harder.
Other demonstrations have been
made from time to time with the
new Overland to test out the new
TripleX Springs and each time they
have come through successfully
