JOYFUL CELEBRATIONS
Today Is the most memorable Thanks
giving in ttio history of Philadelphia the
first real war Thanksgiving since ISfit. Al
though the shadow of war Is hanging over
the country, the celebration In this city
was a Joyful as In former years nnd In
many Instances was featured by prayer and
good wishes tor the success of the Allied
armies abrcad
Nor will the first touches of economic
oppression, caused by the war, cast a
damper over1 the city's spirits.
Services" were held In many churches
throuKhout the city In these special pray
ers were said for the success of Vmcrlc-in
arms. Thousands of poor peop'o e-i.loyed a
real Thanksgiving C'nner. The biggest
Thanksgiving dinner In the history of the
Philadelphia Navy Yard was held there
Many fitg raisings took place Fnllstcd
men were entertained on a wide scale In
many clubs, churches and private homes
The Penn-Comell football cl sslc at
Franklin 'Field attracted lmmen throniti.
From every army camp and cantonment,
from the navy yards and the shins lying
at home stations, soldiers and sailors are
spending Thanksgiving Pay with their
families. Their uniforms on the itreets. as
officers and men mingle with the holiday
crowds, fotmed a contrast to other Thanks
giving Days, when the country was at peace
and the sight of a man wearing Unce Sam's
regnlta wis a novelty Thousands of
drafted men have been allowed a furlough
over Thanksgiving, and many oillcer.i are
in town.

RAPS THOSE WHO ATTACK
MORALS OF U. S. SOLDIERS
"Self-apixilrited" reformers who attack
the morals of enlisted men in the service of
the United States were denounced today hy
the Very Ilev. James J Dean. . S A.,
president of Vlllanova College, In a sermon
at the Cathedral.
"I hold no brief In defence of our gal
lant soldiers and sailors." he said, "yet
T cannot refrain from giving the lie direct
to those hypocritical outbursts of self
appointed reformers who would have us
believe that drunkenness and vice are ram
pant In many or all of our training camps.
When forced to the wall, they have been
unable In a single Instance to substantiate
their Ill-advised statements. Furthermore.
1 may say from personal experience that
such charges are absolutely and unreserv
edly without foundation In fact.
"It Is quite true that single men In bar
racks don't grow Into plaster saints, neither
do they necessarily become demons Incar
nate. No finer type of manhood can be
found anywhere In the world than that
which wears the khaki or the blue."
The Very Uev. Monslgnor Henry T.
Drumgoole. rector of the Overbrook Semi
nary, otliclated as celebrant. Assisting him
were the Kev. D. I. McOettlgan. of the
Church of the Transfiguration, as deacon,
and tho Itev. John P. Crcene, of the Church
of the Visitation, as subdeacun. The music
of the mais was sung by the Knights of
Columbus choir, led by Wl II, im J. Dough

thing that makes a kiddy's life worth while.
But that was not all. There was a movie

comedians, a bunch of vaudeville acts and
a big band under the leadership of Lieuten
ant William Brldgen to keep enthusiasm at
high pitch.
The dinner was conducted under the di
rection of Colonel and Mrs. Richard K.

reappoint! d bv the Mayor.
As a boy he served as n clerk in the
freight department of the Reidlng Hallway.
From there ho went to l.ong ltland. where
he was employed in the engineering olllces
In charge Df the construction of the Long
Island li-ii.rn.-id. He afterward was ap
pointed .1 clerk In the olllce of Receiver
of Taxes and for live years served In .1
similar capacity In the olllce of the Hoard
of Revision of Taxes.
In HiOf! he was nppmnted an Insurance
examiner by David Martin, then State Com
missioner. For live jears before he was
appointed to the position he held when In
died .Mr Cummlskey was a member of Se
lect Coutu II tiom the Twetity-tifth Ward.
As Chief nf Cltv Property, he succeeded
William II. Ball, who resigned mi the first
day of tin- Smith mlm'iilsti'.itlon.
Although a follower of Magistrate Wil
liam Campbell, Mr. Cmmnlskey was not
rated at 11 big-caliber politician. Mr. I'um
mlskej never rn-c higher than a division
lender In hl ward. He owed his place to
personality i.ither than to political activity
At the last eleitlon Mr Cummlskey stood
by Mayor Smith. Mnglstiate Campbell
went over to the Town Meeting patty and
carried the ward. Mr Cummlskey failed
to carry his division and his friends say
that be took this gicntly to heart.

VISITOR WHO IS COLD
ABUSES HOSPITALITY
Attempts Hold-Up of Cigar
Store Proprietor and Is Held
Under $400 Bond
Meyer Barr had bcarcely opened up his
cigar store at Twenty-second and Oxford
streets at 7 o'clock this morning" when a
shivering individual entered and asked per
mission to sit by the oil stove and warm
himself. "Help yourself," sild Meyer.
The cold one did so. The heat seemed
to go to his head. In about thirty seconds
he rose up on his hind legs, kicked tho
olt stove over and followed this up by
demanding that Meyer open up the cash
register and hand over what money It con
tained. This was going too far, and Meyer
hinted as much. "Heat you can have It,"
he said, "but money no, and again, nol"
The stranged'a -whimsical fancy for a
piece of change persisted, however, He
pounced on Meyer's overcoat, threw It over
Meyera head ana proceeaea 10 cnone mm
In a way which would dlscourige most
cigar dealerB If alt their customers were in
the habit 01 acting uiui way.
Meyer did not like, this, and said so. He
said so with an emphasis which, attracted
the attention of Policeman Carter down on
tho corner. Shortly after Policeman Car
ter's arrival in the cigar store the stranger
stopped choking Meyer.
"Aw, I was only getting -warm," he pro
tested. At the Nineteenth and Oxford streets sta
tion, whither he was wafted, he said that
he was John Gallagher, thirty-two years old,
of 111 North Twenty-flrat street. Magis
trate Collins held him under MOO bonds to
keep the peaoe.

RALPH C. FAULKNER
PRESIDENT WILSON'S
DOUBLE DOING HIS BIT
If You See Him, Don't Mistake
Him for Original, but Heed
His Liberty Loan Plea
If you ate sitting In a seat In a vaude
ville theatro and see President Wilson, In
frock coat and silk hat, walk out upon tho
stago and smllo his familiar smile, don't
bo surprised. It will not bo President Wil
fon, after nil, but merely his double
Ralph C, Faulkner.
Faulkner Is appearing this week at
Nixon's Grand. Ho was formerly u news
paper cartoonist on tho Pacific coast, and
then used to draw- pictures of himself to
bo used as visiting cards. When strangers
saw tho cards they Invariably thought tho
picture was a cartoon of President Wilson.
Faulkner took the hint. He has been ap
pearing in vnndevlllo und In motion pic
tures as "Woodrow" ever since.
Ho Is Just the same height and weight as
President Wilson, and whenever he walks
along the street passers-by turn to stare at
him In amazement. He has never made a
visit to Washiiif- in. and Is wondering
what would happen If he went there.
Yesterday Faulkner ilecidid that he might
be of service to tho Government In making
addresses from tho vnudovillo stage In be
half of the Liberty Loan and hoped to seo
Frank A. Vnndcrlip, chairman of tho Fed
eral war savlng-i certificates committee, to
put the plan before him. Mr. Vntulerllp be
ing expected to visit Philadelphia, lie was
disappointed by Mr. Vanilerlip's Inability to
leave Washington, but hopes yet to liuvo
his offer accepted. If It meets with ap
proval, vaudeville audiences will have the
novel experience of listening to Liberty
Loan appeals from a man who Is apparently
the President himself.
Fresh Troops Fail
toBreak Italians
Continued from Voire (Ine
mand seemed at first to have been sur
prised, then Impressed, then angry.
An order Issued by the commander of the
Second Bosnian Regiment complains bit
terly of tho losses Inlllcted by the defend
ers and Instructs the men to tako no prison
ers. Knemy prisoners speak of tho heavy
losses ruffered In tho attacks on Monto
Tomba and Monte Fcnera. It Is Intel est
Ing that tho Austrian prisoners show n cer
tain satisfaction In describing tho losses
of their German allies.
TEUTONS PLAN HE A VIER
ATTACK UPOF ITALIANS
WASHINGTON, Nov. 29. Tho Auntro
German divisions all along the Italian front
aro showing great activity, according to
official dispatches from Rome received bore.
A still greater offensive In tho northern sec
tors, with elaborate preparations for a
mighty effort to brenk through. Is expected.
The dispatch says:
"Tho enemy Is making largo scale prep
arations for a Ktlll greater ofienslvn In tho
northern region. In the vicinity of Malga
Slappel latgo enemy units with machine
guns attempted nn encircling movement, but
wero counter-attacked by n battalion of
Alplnl and forced to retire, leaving In oui"
hands complete sections of machine guns,
which wero Immediately turned on the flee
ing enemy. Big guns aro roaring nil along
the front, Indicating tho Imminent renewal
of a general offensive on the part of tha
Austro-Germans in a mightier effort to
break through our line.

This was dono In nnswer to President
Wilson's and coil company chiefs" special

WASKIXCTON, Nov.'i
cancellation of ltusslnn war debuAo
tho United States would mean sweeplnr
aside a bill of nearly $100,000,000. 'TkU

United St ites. chiefly In paying munition!
debts which otherwise might have 'gom

American Clovernment officials have hill
that It was wise to give Uutala support

particularly because some American Into

While arrangements of a Bolshevik' it.

PLANS FOR COALITION '.;
GOVERNMENT COLLAPSE
LONDON", Nov. 2.
Failure of tho Russian Moderate Social
ist plans for a compromise Government
seemed apparent from Russian dispatches
today. It was apparently established that
the Moilerntes had determined to 'throw
their lot with the Maximalists. From vari
ous sources It appeared that the. BqlihevJM
movement wart rapidly gaining ground.'
Yesterday dispatches gate every Indica
tion that the. Moderate plan for a coalition
of nil Russian parties In a' firm Govern
ment was well under way. Apparently,
however, the Cadets found sentiment too
overwhelmingly pro-Bolshevlkl at the front
for them to succeed. f
Ccneral Kaledlno, hctman of theCos
sacks, alone, seems to be heading any formid
able party of -opposition to tho Bolehevftl.
Ho Is reported to control in southeast
