Forty-eight Gather to Discuss the
Problems Attending Road
Maintenance
Joseph W. Hunter, flrst deputy
State Highway Commissioner, to-day
called attention of the supervisors of
Dauphin county at their first annual
convention, to the fact that by uniting
In purchase of supplies they can ob
tain better prices for their districts
and can also work out maintenance
problems more advantageously and
uniformly. The convention was the
first to be held in this county and
forty-eight of the men in charge of
the roads gathered in court room No.
1 for the sessions. The meeting is
held unde rthe township road act of
1913 and the supervisors recelvfe a per
diem for attending. The greatest In
terest was manifested and many ques
tions were asked, especially as to the
way to obtain advice and plans from
the Highway Department for the
townships which the State is required
to gjve without cost.
Mr. Hunter opened the convention by
reading the road act and C. W. Eris
man, engineer of the township road
bureau, called for nominations. E. B.
Messner, Upper Paxton, was elected
chairman over S. H. Grove, Swatara,
by 24 to 16. John Hossler, Rush, and
B. P. Strickler, Susquehanna, acted as
tellers. Mr. Messner was named by
Adam Palmer, Wlconisco. The vice
chairmen elected, who will also be
vice-presidents of the association, are
John K ; Zoll, Derry, and C. F. Har
man, Wayne. Isaac F. Bogner, Mid
dle Paxton, was elected secretary, and
George H, Aungst, Lower Paxton,
treasurer.
District Attorney M. E. Stroup wel
comed the supervisors on behalf of
President Judge Kunkel, who is hold
ing court to-day alone In tho absence
of Judge McCarrell, who Is ill. Mr.
Stroup discussed the law and urged
the supervisors to give the best of care
to their roads and avail themselves of
the free advice and plans offered by
the State Highway Department. He
remarked that as district attorney he
desired to co-operate with the super
visors in every way.
Supervisors Talk
Adam Palmer, Wiconisco, spoke on
the necessity of paying better atten
tion to drainage and was assured that
the State would give advice in every
way. M. 8. Brinser, of Londonderry,
talked on the Importance of cost in
road making and repairs and of hold
ing It down and W. J. G. Koland,
Heed, discussed the problems of the
supervisors.
Mr. Hunter then suggested a ques
tion box and after a few remarks pre
sented Willis Whited, the State high
way bridge expert, who gave ideas on
the best way to build bridges and to
keep them in repair. He laid empha
sis on the necessity of frequent inspec
tion and of keeping In check little
things which would cause bridges to
deteriorate.
In addition to Mr. Hunter there
wore present Division Englnoer C. W.
llardt and Superintendent C. P. Wal
ter.
The supervisors resumed the session
at 2 o'clock.

position sure as cucumbers."
How high is he? Just ten feet eight
Inches.
Wllvert will walk to Frisco aa the
direct representative of the Telegraph
In every city and town where he
makes stops of any duration he will
take pictures, write a story of his trip
and mall It back for the benefit of the
Telegraph readers. Of courae, the
"king" will not be heard from every
day.
To Carry Greetings
Upon reaching the towns and cities
ihrough which he will stride Wllvert's
first duty will be con\eying the greet
ings of the Telegraph to the major
or burgess. In each <-npltal city the
stilt artist will carry greetings to the
Koifrnnr. In a registry book carried
I will be recorded the names of the
governors, mayors and burgesses Vlß
ited.
On the back of the sky-high trav
eler will be a banner with the follow
ing inscription:
Tho Harrlsburg Telegraph Ex
tends Its Greetings to the People
of the United States.
In California
Wilvert on his urrlval at California
will first visit Governor Hiram W.
Johnson at Sacramento and he will
then go to San Francisco, where he
is to meet the commissioners of the
Panama Exposition. While at the ex
position Wilvert will make his head
quarters at tho Pennsylvania building,
remaining until December 20, the clos
ing date of the big show.
Whilo boosting the Harrisburg Tele
graph will be Wilvert's principal duty,
he will not be barred from earning
money en route. He will have pic
ture cards of himself and Harrlsburg
for sale and will offer souvenirs from
Harrisburg Among other things lit,
will advertise Walk-Over shoes.
To MaKp Twelve Miles a Day
An average of twelve to fifteen
miles each day will be covered by the
man on stilts. While he will go it
alone on his walks, the Wilvert famllv
will also make the trip. Mrs. Wilvert
and her children will be Bent ahead
and the wife will meet her husband
in various cities and assist in carrying
out the program.
Wilvert will report dally to F E
Eyster, manager of the circulation de
partment of the Telegraph, who is
directing the trip.
.i_ Th !., ro , ute ma PPed out will take
the stilted Mercury through fourteen
States. He will make no changes
unless storms or prairie fires should
make changes necessary. He has out
lined the following route:

Ills Clothes
_.y hl ' e his Journey to the West
Wilvert naturally will not wear the
dernier tri in men's clothes. He will
have real shoes on the base of his
stilts, will wear water and mud proof
trousers, a coat and vest in fair
weather and a storm coat in rainy
weather. Mis clothes were "made In
Harrisburg" by the Standard Woolen
Company, 19 North Third street. The
ono nobby thing Wilvert will effect
will be a silk top hat when occasion
requires.
Incidentally while on the trip Wil
vert will do all he can to boost Har
risburg, at the request of the Chamber
of Commorce.
That the stilt king has good chances
of making the trip Is seen in the fact
that ho has long been an expert stilt
walker.
His Experience
In 1905 he advertised the King
Oscar cigar during Old Home Week In
Harrisburg. In the centennial cele
bration at Middletown he won SSO In
the Darktown Fire Brigade exhibition.
In 11)06 Wilvert led the Penn Treaty
Club in tho mummers' parade at Phila
delphia, remaining on his stilts seven
hours. He received sl7 5. The samt
year Wllvert walked over bridges and
trestle work along the lines of the
Erie and Lehigh Valley railroads on
flfteen-f6ot stilts, several of the bridges
being from sixty to seventy feet in
height. He worked fourteen weeks
during 1907 In advertising the Walk-
Over shoes In eastern Pennsylvania
and in 1909 ho walked over the Gull
ford avenue trestle at Baltimore,
ninety feet high, on fifteen-foot stilts
To Make Dally Walks
Wllvert has irany friends in Harris
burg who are anxious to have him
make a successful trip and to Bee him
before he departs for the West. In
order to give everybody an opportunity
to see him as he is to appear on the
trip Wilvert will make dally walks In
various parts of Harrisburg between
now and April 1.
His final trip over the city will be
on Tuesday, March 81. The program
for the start on Wednesday has not
yet been completed, but will be an

on hand to give the stilt king a rous
ing send-off.

able houses that can be had for sls
per month or less.
With relation to the municipal iodg
inghouse problem, Miss Clark said:
At the police station sometimes
as many as thirty tramps or other
transients a night have slept In
the basement room. -In which
there are 110 comforts. This Is
decidedly unsanitary and Is In
adequate In every way.
It encourages tramps to stop
In the city and menaces the health
and safety of Its i>cople. The
number applying for care would
be prreatly decreased If Harrisburg
maintained a municipal lodging
house, where tlie applicants could
work for their temporary care and
lutve their clothes fumigated while
they slept. It would also de
crease the number loafing about
the city, committing small of
fenses for the sake of I>elng sent
to Jail to secure a warm place for
the winter months.
The meeting last evening was tha
sixth annual gathering and the re
port of Miss Clark was a revelation
to many of the charity workers as to
just what had been accomplished dur
ing the last twelve months. Among
other things the report showed that
871 local families and 144 transients
had been treated.
The Harrisburg Benevolent Asso
ciation, the Anti-Tuberculosis Society,
aided by funds raised in the 1913 Red
Cross Christmas seal campaign and
the many other charitable and philan
thropic institutions and organizations,
all worked with the Charites in bring
ing about a betterment of conditions
here.
Attention was called to the fact
that desertion officers, whose duties
should be similar to those of the pro
bation officer, only Insofar as the
desertion and nonsupport offenders
aro concerned, have not yet been ap
pointed. The law providing this passed
a year ago.
The problem of the county work
house, the establishment of a work
ing quarry at the almshouse, and the
importance of providing cheaper,
more comfortable houses, was espec
ially emphasized. In the latter con- 1
nection the general secretary's report
was to this effect:
Those under $lO are especially
scarce and are frequently not
healthful nor sanitary. The de
struction of so many small houses
In the Eighth Ward for the ex
tension of Capitol Park has in- 1
creased the demand for them and
will cause serious overcrowding
in the other wards, as no provis
ions have been made to meet the
demand.
Prior to the report of Miss Clark
seven new governors were elected to
serve for thr®e-ycar terms, as follows:
Dr. J. TV. Kilenberger, Vance C. Me-
Cormick, George W. Reily, E. Z. i
Gross. Alv*. William Henderson, Mr*.
M. W. Eager and Morris R. Jaoobson.
"}
The new board will meet Tuesday, |
April 14, to organize.
Another interesting report was that
of Donald McCormick and John Fox
Weiss on Harrisburg's unusually big
1913 Red Cross Christmas seal sale
last year. Just 249,000 seals were
sold. A cash balance remains of
$2,611.29.
Dr. Little's talk was unusually in
teresting. "The Modern Charity
Movement" was the subject of Mr.
Little's talk. President W. B. Mc-
Caleb was in the chair.
"The trained worker," said Dr.
Little in part, "may be compared to
the physibian. Just as they diagnose
cases of illness, so do the social work
ers diagnose social ailments. The
average trained worker must be '-een
enough not to be deceived. Visits to
the home are not made in the spirit
of the detective but to carefuly study
conditions and apply a remedy."
HIS colElion
OF DEPT. HEIDS
[('/outinued from First Page.]
It was originally intended by the
Treasury Department in remodeling
tho Harrisburg building to extend the
working floor to tho post office forty
six feet, the entire length of the build
ing, and add a wing on each end as is
now proposed, but the first appropria
tion was found to be Inadequate. Un
der the circumstances the contract in
cluded (foundations, walls and steel
work of sufficient strength to cafry
these wings in the future. It was
found when proposals for the work
were received that the money available
for the changes was not sufficient to
do all of the proposed work as the bids
received left only about $13,000 surplus
which would not have been sufficient
to construct the two wings. The pres
ent contract provides only for the ad
dition of the first story (all of which
will be used by the post office) and re
modeling of the Interior of the old
building. Tho committee on buildings
and grounds says in its report that
when the building Is remodeled as now
proposed it will be inadequate for
present requirements. First Assistant
Postmaster General Roper reporft that
the space available when the extension
shall have been completed will fall far
short of the actual demands.
Postmaster Sites in his letter on the
subject, re-enforcing the recommenda
tions of his predecessor, says the desig
nations of the Harrisburg office as a
central distribution point for a large
portion of the State makes necessary
the further onl&rgement. He also
states that he has been advised by the
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
that the Harrisburg office will be
made a distribution point and collec
tion office of postal supplies.
To Transfer Executive Offices
It is proposed in the event of the
further enlargement of the building
under thi Krelder bill to transfer the
executive offices from the first to the
second floor and the Weather Bureau I
from the second to the third floor, this j
bureau requiring more space. iXox*
