rmXRSDAT EVENING, JANUARY 8
LAUGHTER, NOT TEARS
MAYOR JOHN K. ROYAL I 9
taking himself too seriously.
He might fill a place in opera
bou.ffe, perhaps, but any at
tempt to essay the leading role in the
serio-comic performance of "How to
Fool the People" only invites laughter
when he expects tears. A year or two
ugo this sort of appeal to the people
might have been successful, but our
hold-over Mayor seems to have over
locked an Important element in the
situation—th« fact that a large major
ity of the people of Harrisburg have
up the Royal administration and
Lassed judgment upon it.
I They have waited with great pa
lllence for Mayor Royal to fulfill all
[the expectations of a wonderful ad
f ministration for the people, but they
have waited in vain. Solemn pledges
were Eh en to the voters of a "nonpar
tisan business administration," but in
stead of that sort of administration
Mayor Royal aided in the building up
of a Democratic machine without re
gard for the principle of civil service.
t-.»ne after another of admirably quali
fied and faithful employes of the pre
vious administration were compelled
to walk the plank in order that places
might be found for those who were
useful to the Democratic machine.
Under the circumstances, Mayor
Royal's present performance will
hardly impress the average citizen as
an expression of the honest resent
ment of an official whose first thought
Is the welfare of the community.
There seems to be no doubt that,
under the Clark act, it is entirely with
in the province of a majority of the
oommission to dismiss any member of
the police force with or without
charges having been preferred against
bim. It has not been forgotten by
those familiar with more or less recent
municipal history that it was Mayor
Royal who tried to catapult into the
police department certain unsavory
persons who were so unfit that it was
tfecesgar> for the old Select Council
to refuse confirmation.
. After this experience it would seem
|hat our indignant Mayor has little
ground upon which to ptand in hie
declaration that, "if better men can be
j>ut on the force than are there, and
It Is shown that they will benefit the
■ervlce, I am in favor of a change,"
especially as it has been charged over
and over again that experienced of
ficers were removed simply because
they had not voted for Mayor Royal.
It is fald to be the attitude of the
Republican members of the commis
sion that the nonpartisan act does not
contemplate the retention of all the
appointees of a partisan administra
tion, and that the dropping of an em
ploye here and there cannot be con
strued as a violation of the nonparti
san law in spirit or letter.
Mayor Royal la not looking toward
Washington when he insists, in a more
or less strained voice, that charges
shall be preferred before employes are
removed. If there has been any break
ing down of the civil service principle,
here or elsewhere, the example of the
"Wilson administration has been largely
responsible.
PROTECT!XG CHILDREN"
THE death oi two New Hampshire
children recently as the result
of a Christmas tree lire, draws
attention to the necessity of
guarding children from flames. While
fatalities from burning are but u minor
fraction of the mortality from pre
ventable causes, they are sufficiently
numerous to warrant an attempt to
prevent them. This is especially true
of deaths of children from that cause.
In this country there are few avail
able correct statistics on the subject.
In England, however, it is different;
there the statistics are not only de
pendable, but available. Dr. Brend
has complied and analyzed the data
regarding deaths of children from
burning. The results are reprinted
and commented on in a recent tissue
of The Journal of the American Medi
cal Association.
From the years 190(5 to 1911 he
found that up t«> the age of 1 there
■were 214 hoy* and 234 girls burned:
from 1 to 4, there were l.titii boy.- and
THURSDAY EVENING,
11,818 girls: fropi 4 to 5, 36S boys and
775 girls; from 5 to 10 389 boys and
1,427 girls, and from 10 to 20, 80 boys
and 630 girls.
It is at once evident that there is a
marked difference between the mor
tality of boys and girls. This differ
ence is probably due to the different
type of clothing worn by the two
sexes. Up to about the ages of 2 and
3. boys and girls are dressed alike.
From 3 to 4 the boys put on the
simpler male attire and there Is an
abrupt and marked fall in the mor
tality from burning.
There has been much condemnation
of the material known as flannelet,
which is very Inflammable cloth,
although from the figures quoted it
would seem that It Is not so much the
material as the style of clothing which
leads to loss of life. For other rea
sons as well, namely, freedom of move
ment. better hygiene and general cost
of clothing, there would seem to be a
demand for a further simplification of
the manner of dressing girls, particu
larly those of the younger ages.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
OUT of the tomb of the Board of
Trade has arisen a broader and
more comprehensive organiza
tion—-the Chamber of Com
merce. Harrlsburg never Intended
that the recent dissolution of the old
association should be Interpreted as a
decadence of public spirit In this com
munity, and whatever was best in'the
old form of the central business body
has been Incorporated in the new,
which will stand for the real spirit
of the city this year and In the years
to come.
Many of those who were identified
with the old organization are active In
the new, and It is believed that be
fore many weeks shall have passed
practically every "live wire" will be
connected with the dynamo of the or
ganization launched last night.
Harrlsburg has a great future and
It is the duty of every good citizen to
touch elbows with his neighbor in
pushln? forward those things which
make for the betterment and prosper
ity of the whole community. Youtig
and old are associated in the Chamber
of Commerce and Its future is bright
with promise of a still greater Harris
burg.
FORESIGHT IN CLEARING SI,ATE
THE foresight of the Dauphin
County Court and District At
torney Stroup in continuing
hold-over September sessions
cases to a special term In October is
clearly shown by a glance at the huge
trial list for January term.
When the continued session was
finally concluded In the Fall the
county's criminal calendar was prac
tically free of cases for the first time
in years. And something like 200 new
cases are already listed for the court
which begins on Monday.
How seriously the capacity of the
court, juries and district attorney's
office would have been taxed had
many of September's defendants been
held over for trial next week, can
readily be imagined.
Furthermore, a couple of murder
trlwals are scheduled for the January
quarter sessions. Not that this Is un
usual; the criminal f rial lists for the
last several terms have contained at
least one. Homicide trials quite
naturally require considerably more
time than the ordinary felony or mis
demeanor; frequently the considera
tion of the highest crime against the
State requires two days or more. And
of course this serves to reduce the time
for clearing the calendar of other
causes.
Whether or not any of the murder
cases listed for next week will get far
ther than the grand jury at this term,
is a question; the impression seems to
be that the State's attorneys cannot
hope to finish any murder trials at
this court. But the clearing of the
calendar of the petty cases will surely
mean that the graver charges can be
considered not later than March term.
So th» administration of justice in
Dauphin county will be so much fur
ther advanced.
PEN CONSERVATION
FROM the vast forests of Alaska
to the tiny pin that holds to
gether our women folks is a long
step, but the Louisville Courier-
Journal does not hesitate to take It in
the interests of conservation of our
resources, suggesting pin-saving as a
very important national economy.
Many persons wonder what be
comes of the pins, and a French sci
entist has deemed the question of suf
ficient moment to make a painstaking
investigation. The pins, he says, go
back to the dust of mother earth.
His experiments have shown that an
ordinary pin left exposed to the ele
ments will disappear in eighteen
months. A common hairpin will dis
solve into dust in IS4 days. A steel
pen will vanish into dust in eighteen
months, but a polished steel needle
will withstand the ravages of time for
a period of two and a half years.
It is a matter of common knowledge
that pir.s and similar articles which
become imbedded in the earth will
gradually melt away and finally be
come a part of the soil. Nobody ex- 1
cept a scientist, however, would un
dertake to keep time on the process
of dissolution and figure out the exact I
life of a pin which has been lost in
the mud or swallowed in dust.
Pins are useful, but they are cheap,
and no one gives much thought to
their conservation. Billions of pins
are lost in this country every year and
are resolved into parent dust, but if
the people took a sudden notion to be
economical in this respect half the
pin factories would have to go out of
business, and members of the Pin
makers' Union would be out of a job.
Even In the waste of pins, therefore,
there is stimulus to Industry. The
schoolboy's composition had it that
"pins have saved thousands of lives
by people not swallowing them.'" In
other anil more substantial ways they
aro ••life-savers,'' which the world,
thought ofttimcs I 1 uses
thuu, cannot get along without.

Sl^" 5 1° cite n "'tie Instance from the
office of the Associated Charities. A
night or so before the time when the
great visitor of the chimneys was due
to mount his sleigh someone called up
the office of the organization and
asked if a list could be given to him
of places where a tree would be wel
come. Whether the man was a tree
merchant who could not see a market
for his goods or whether he was chari
tably Inclined, deponent knoweth not,
but the point is that here was a mail
whose idea of making some people
happy was to provide trees, and he
called up the place where he thought
he could find out. There have been
many inquiries made at the office since
the charitable associations got together
and arranged t,o handle their affairs in
a way that would be practical, avoid
duplication and prevent impositions,
but this Christmas tree idea was origi
nal. In other cities the organized
charities have succeeded in driving
out of town some of the professional
beggars who have thousands of dollars
on interest in banks, a striking Illus
tration ot' this type being a beggar
who held down a cellar door in this
city a month ago and who the day
before he left the city went to one
of banks and secured a draft on
New York for $45, the amount of his
haul in dear, charitable, easy Harris
burg. This city has its share of "pan
handlers," but the police have them
pretty well "spotted," and if people
before handing out cash to some itin
erant cripple would ask a policeman
or seek information from the pepole
whose business it is to know where
want prevails and where succor is
really needed many dollars would be
more usefully employed than they are
in Harrlsburg' to-day.
The celebration of the Greek Christ
mas at Steelton' the last few days has
attracted much attention to the quaint
customs of the Greeks. Bulgars. Mace
donians. Servians and others from the
Near East and a number of people
who have a !>ent for study of foreign
folks have been nosing around in the
foreign quarter of the borough. This
section is not the pleasantest place in
the county to visit, but if one can get.
used to the odors and the boorishness
that sometimes characterizes the Eu
ropean. especially after a celebration,
he will see a good bit of interest and
perhaps be invited to eat roast pig
garnished with garlic and other hlghlj
flavored things, get a drink of some
liquid tire and a mouthful of a cheese
which may be a great delicacy. These
people are'really worth studying and
when you get a real insight into their
ways and customs they afford much of
Interest. Some of their pranks, how
ever. are a little trying, especially that
custom which allows women to throw
water on the men indiscriminately on
one day in the year, which comes
some time between Christmas and
New Years, old style.
The fire alarm that caused the fire
apparatus to tear through the parade
of the Hope fire company on its way
to the centennial banquet caused the
genial Old Fireman to recall a rather
odd experience of the Citizen tire com
pany when it was about to celebrate
its semicentennial. It was on October
11. 1886. when the No. 3 company was
fifty years old. that its members had
planned for a banquet in the Bolton
House. The banquet was to be at 9
o'clock. At 6.15 an alarm was turned
in from Box 4, at Third and Market,
and it was found that the kitchen of
the Bolton was on fire. The. kitchen
was just getting ready to prepare the
banquet for the firemen. They made»
short work of the blaze, however, and
at 9 paraded from their house to the
hotel and had a joyous banquet.
The Hope's banquet the other even
ing was marked by the greetings from
most of the fire companies in this sec
tion. In Harrisbnrg almost every
company organized ire the last twenty
years has men who were, formerly
affiliated with the second oldest com
pany in the city.

The legislative committee of the
