    Yesterday -- April 24th -- marked the 107th year since the chocolate-making pioneer Milton S. Hershey opened Hershey Park for the benefit of the workers in the largest chocolate manufacturing plant in the world.
    After selling his previous candy-making business in 1900, Mr. Hershey moved back to his "homestead" (called Derry Church) to start his successful Chocolate-making business.
    However, unlike other industrialists and company magnates of his time, Mr. Hershey wanted his Company Town to be a "real home town" with tree-lined streets, single and multi-family houses, and a community that provided the residents with many services and amenties.
    Some of these included a Community Center with Venetian-styled Theater, a (single) Women's Club, a (single) Men's Club, a Zoo, a Museum and various Hershey businesses (e.g., Hershey Trust and Bank Co., department store, drug store, creamery, greenhouse, abbatoir, bakery, etc.).
    Besides a couple of golf-courses, Hershey also built and operated several sporting venues including a public swimming pool, a sports stadium and an indoor arena that hosted the town's own hockey team.
    So how do we know so much about Hershey?
    Well, it's because LW was born and lived in Hershey for more than 30 years -- and got his first kiss (from a real live 10-year old girl!) during their 1st ride in the Park's "Tunnel of Love"!
    So, for tonight's Net, how much do you know about "Chocolate Town USA -- The Sweetest Place On Earth"?
    Please give us your best answers for each of the following 3 TRUE or FALSE questions, by using the (reuseable) answers of "A"=TRUE or "B"=FALSE.
       ++ Tonight's Topic: "Happy Birthday, HERSHEY PARK!" ++
Question #1: After a couple of business flops, Mr. Hershey sold the Lancaster Caramel Co. for $1 million in 1900 in order to concentrate exclusively on his chocolate business -- True or False?
        A. True, or
        B. False.
Question #2: Hershey's first two streets, Cocoa Avenue and Chocolate Avenue, form a crossroads -- with the latter being known for its street lamps shaped like wrapped and unwrapped Hershey's Kisses -- True or False?
        A. True, or
        B. False.
Question #3: In 1903, Mr. Hershey built his chocolate factory near his homestead (Derry Church) because of the large number of dairy farms there -- True or False?
        A. True, or
        B. False.
