sania. has thrived SO well without a
bar, since II was opened on January
/, 1918. that tan-story addition of
Iaa rooms is to be started soon. Fran
many sources reports OF increased
business under prohibition are being
heard.
In many ways the first years bust
ness of the Penn Harris was re-
faarkabie one" says the New York
Hotel Review The opening Of the
house ava kened the civic pride OF
Harrisburg and Immediately the hotel
became the social center OF the city.
There has been no advance in rates
since the day II WAS opened in spite
pf the steady increase in the price OF
everything connected with the opera
don of the house,
When the United Hotels company
" America was arranging for the
erection OF the Penn Harris, officials
OF the company decided 10 operate the
hostelry without a bar. but At the

Buffalo. March 12.-Prohibition Is
proving beneficial to every food in
industry, Thomas -. Cutler. treasurer
Of The National association of Ice
Cream supply Men said at the annual
convention Of the organization here.
While national prohibition has not
been egcctive long enough to obtain
much data there seems to be no doubt
that every food industry in the coun-
try has been and will be materially
benefited by prohibition" Mr.. Cutler
said.
There has been Z notable increase
in the demand for food production
containing sugar and cream All In
dications point to an unprecedented
demand for such foodstuffs, including
ice cream, in the near futup. There
Is scarcely an Ice cream dealer in the
country who does not report that his
business will be materially benefited
by prohibition and distribution Of Ice
! cream.
The supply association officers at
tributea increased demand for the ma
chinery and products used in making
ice cream to increased consumption
resulting from prohibition.

dications this car when announced
will be-a finished product ready for
production and the market. No details
have been disclosed but Silver's long
association with popular priced Jobs

product bearing his own name Will be

also be expected from silver for he has
given to the industry many Of It's finest

This speaks well for our colored
