CLEVELAND TO HARRISBURG
VIA. PITTSBURGH IN HIGH

A feat that has not often been ac-
complished and one that requires con-
siderable knowledge of the fine points
of driving is that OF coming from Cleve-
land Ohio via Pittsburgh to this city.
This feat however was accomplished
last Saturday and Sunday by Andrew
Redmond the local distributor of Chand-
ler touring cars and Vim trucks in
Chandler stock roadster.
During show week Mr.. Redmond sold
every Chandler car he had in stock ana
took several orders that required NIL
ing at once which made necessary
trip to Cleveland. the home or Chano-
Ter cars. in order to drive in several
cars. 1t was on this trip that Mr.
Redmond himself. driving the Chandler
roadster, made the remarkable record
of coming over the mountains between
here and Pittsburgh and the muddy
roads of southern Ohio without once
shifting into second or low in the many
long and tedious pulls that is neces-
sary to take in the drive.
Leaving Cleveland around 1.3O p. m
Saturday and staying in Pittsburgh over
night, Mr.. Redmond arrived IN HARRIS
burg Sunday afternoon. The ROADS pe-
tween here and Pittsburgh are in gooo
shape and the day was ideal for rec
ord-breaking run.
During his stay in Cleveland, Mr..
Redmond visited the Chandler factory
and conversed with several of the high
officials. Optimism is the keynote at
the Chandler factory and they are work
ing day and night to keep up with the
tremendous demand for Chandler cars.
At the present time it is hard to get
Chambers, due to the fact that change
is being made in body designs that
will make the Chandler more popular
than ever. Up. to date Mr.. Redmond
has more than oversold his allotment OF
cars and is patiently awaiting his turn
to get shipments OF the new designs
In the course of few weeks the Chand-
ler factory will make an announce
ment that will be a welcome one to the
touring public. but at present will not
disclose just what this announcement
will he

RED CROSS FINDS
MISSING SOLDIER
Biglerville Boy Found in Hos
pital With Fractured Skull
and Bullet Wounds

Gettysburg Pa, April 5. - The
mystery of Adams county's missing
soldier has been solved. Through
the home service department of the
Red Cross an investigation has been
conducted for some time to find the
whereabouts of a young man whose
home is at Biglerville, in order that
he may be placed at some vocational
training school If he so desires. The
soldier boy, whose name is with
held from publication, following the
plan of the Red Cross in much mat
ters, had been overseas for num-
ber of months and had taken part
in some of the hard battles that
were fought while the Allied troops
were chasing the Huns slowly but
surely out of France.
In one of these fights he received
a fractured skull and number of
bullet wounds. Taken to a hospital
he was later invalided home. but all
this was unknown to home folks
until one day several months ago
friend of the boys happened to
meet a brother living at Biglerville
and told him he came to this country
on the same boat with him.
Nothing had been heard of the
soldier for six months or so in
France or since his arrival in this
country, and it was feared that pos
sibly the injury to his head had
caused a temporary lapse of his rea-
soning powers and he was wandering
aimlessly around.
The home service department took
the matter up and after much trou-
BILE have located the boy, although
discharged. in the Naval Hospital at
Norfolk, Virginia.

HARRISBURG TO
PHILADELPHIA VIA.
LANCASTER

A humorous situation prevails in
Saint Catharines, Ontario, in connec-
ton with daylight saving. The Can
adian parliament refused to grant
daylight saving and the Lincoln
county council opposed it, so all
government and county officers are
working on the old time, including
the county courts. The postofflce and
the customs office clock on the
courthouse. which building is own
ed by Saint Catharines, but leased
to the county for its offices and
which is the only tower cleck in the
city, continues to tick along an hour
behind the whole population of the
city.
Letter carriers and post Office
clerks are compelled to work an
hour extra to look after the early
morning mails.
To-day Secretary Yates. of the
board of trade, was notified that
there was likelihood that the Canad-
ian railways would have to go back
to old time, having changed time
without permission. If the railroads
go back the rest of Canada likely
will. too.
A message was sent to Ottawa to
Jaces d. Chaplin, member of parlia-
ment for this country, urging him to
pull hard for letting railways stay
on the daylight saving basis.-From
the Buffalo Express.

AUTOMOBILE AND AEROPLANE
SCHOOL ON THE JOB

Taking a new lease on life after a
period of inactivity of several months,
the Automobile and Aeroplane School
at Steelton under the management of
w. NJ. FELTON,, has come back with a
bang. During the flu epidemic Mr.
FELTON, was laid up for more than a
month and the great demand for work
ers of any kind no matter whether
skilled or otherwise, almost closed this
large school entirely. Now the demand
is for skilled mechanics only which
means that some way or other must
be devised to train the men necessary
for the accomplishing of the work OF
the nation, has caused the reopening
of the school on a basis unheard OF be-
fore
Courses of instruction in both auto
mobile and asroplane mechanical con-
struction are to be had and hours for
both day and night instruction are
maintained Complete models of auto
mobiles and aeroplanes are used and
the instruction given on actual working
parts. A large number of men have
enrolled in the classes starting March
81 and more are enrolling every day.
The courses are always opening, new
classes starting all the time. There are
also few women who are taking the
course and finding it highly beneficial
in the every day life of motorist.

LOCAL APPERSoN DEALER
PUTS IN SOME CLAIM FOR
PERFORMANCE OF his CAR

THE Apperson Eight, the eight with
eighty less parts, demonstrated that 1t
can accelerate on high from 1 to 40
miles an hour in 20 seconds; stop dead
at a speed of 40 miles per hour in 4
seconds within 40 yards; and turn COM
pletely around within space of 3S and
a quarter feet"
That is the claim made by the Key
stone Sales Company, the local dis
tributors for Apperson Cars in an an
nouncement on another page of to-day's
paper And by golly We believe they
can live up to it for we had ride in
an Apperson driven by Mr.. Grove some
time ago and believe me the Apperson
is some car and Mr.. Grove is some
driver.
Mr.. Cowden and Mr.. Grove just re-
turned from a tour through the northern
tier countries where they were visiting
Apperson representatives. They used
an Apperson Anniversary Eight and in
every town where they stopped the
crowds gathered around the car to ad-
mire 1t. Although a new car that had
not yet been broken in, some remarkable
gas and oil mileage was obtained.

To draw and then expire;
Where utmost peril found his hearts

Now Rick comes home.
With skill that knows no peer,
With heart by daring steeled,
Rick kept his faith with those
That sleep in Flanders field
Their torch he bore aloft,
He snatched 1t where they lay;
Proud where the buzzards OF the Hun
That fell to earth this eagles prey.
Now Rick comes home, a hero born of

On hiseory's page his name;
But Rick Ia something more
A modest four-Bqnaro man,
Full worthy Of his fame ss

Allies Will Include 1t in Rep
aration Bill; u. S. Has
No Claim

Paris, April 5.-Pensions to dis
abled soldiers and for widows and
orphans will be included in the bill
to Germany for reparation. The
Peace Conference leaders have de-
cided that such relief to individuals
for losses and sufferinss during the
war will be a proper charge under
the armistice provisions.
The reparation of losses to the
civilian population will constitute a
very considerable proportion of the
$50,000,000,000, the amount of the
reparation bill as now approximately
estimated.
1t is understood that the United
States will not lodge any claim un-
der this head, Americans being COW
