Hershey ff ' lim i, is only forty-six years young, but it has quite a history. Youll Q 'igga-, come along with us, won't you, as we retrace the steps of time ' .y .ff to 1903? l Here we are back in that year in which Milton S. Hershey better known as M. S., started to build a chocolate factory ln 1906 a railroad station was built and shortly afterwards a post office, through which Hershey's fame was to grow to world-wide magnitude. By the time of the tenth anniversary celebration there were already a number of fine large buildings along h 'Ti Chocolate Avenue, the department store, fire house, and bank .ffff f among them. The McKinley school, at the corner of Chocolate , , ,, . - -f---'f':: - and Cocoa, was the Hershey High of 1908, which is perhaps better remembered by our parents. 1909 marked the founding ,-5 ly of the Hershey Industrial School for orphan boys. Q , I fl fs' Look around some more, folks. We'll be back to take you F' TV' E E on a tour of the Hershey we seniors remember. The highlight gal N-- - 'H' of course, will be the Hershey High School where many a precious moment has been spent.
