A\l» very early In tlie morning the flrsl day of the week, they came onto <be sepulchre at the rising of the sun. And they said among themselves, Ulio shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre i And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled nwayi for It was very great. And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in u long white garment, and they were affrighted. And he snith unto them, lie not | nlfrlghtedi Ye seek Jesus of >a«areth. j which was crucified) he Is risen; he Is not herei heboid Ihe plnce where they laid him. But go your way, 'tell his disciples anil Peter <hat he goeth before you Into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto yon. •»***«**■>« Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and up braided them wltu their unbelief and hardness of heart, beenuse they be lieved no>t theni which hud seen him after be was risen. And he said unto them, Go ye Into all Ihe world, and preach the gospel to; every creature.—Mark XVI, FASTER FLOWERS THE members of Post ss, Grand Army of the Republic, were keenly awake to the true spirit of the Easter season when they voted to send flowers to their sick or feeble comrades. Too often the flowers come when we can no longer appreciate them. Better a single carnation for the living I than a hundred for the dead. Flowers mean so much and they I cost so little. Let us follow the example of the comrades of Post 5S j to-morrow and brighten the chambers of our "shut-in" friends with the i Spring blossoms that flaunt their col-j ors and toss their perfume at us from numberless street stands. The always consistent Patriot one day publishes the picture of School Di rector Bretz as one of the loyal Demo crats who went to Washington to in cite prominent party leaders to the Jefferson Day dinner, and the next day "roasts" him to a turn because he didn't vote on school matters to suit the Little Boss. UNWISE INVESTMENTS AN aged Chicago woman is on her way to New York to at tempt the recovery of $4,000 nearly all she had—which she took out of a bank where it had been on interest at 3 and 4 per cent., to en trust It to a plausible real estate broker who was going to double the money for her In six months in metro politan property. A year has passed and she has yet to receive a penny In return. This woman Is like many other per sons who want to make money too rapidly and who often lose what they save by risking it in questionable ven tures. She was right in the first place. The savings bank way is the best until one has accumulated some capital and acquired experience and judgment to enable him to make sound investments on a larger scale. A sav ings account does not compel the in vestor to go back and start over again because of losses by speculation or otherwise. One can invest small, odd amounts in a savings account. He can invest them at any time, and his money will begin to earn interest at once. The interest as soon as it is added to the principal, begins to earn more interest itself and thus the account grows in two ways. Of course, savings bank compound interest is not the only way to make money with money. Many fortunes were made and many more will be made through wise in vestments. And many fortunes ar<? lost, too, through unwise investments. But thrifty habits and consulting with experienced persons like conservative SATURDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPIf APRIL 11, 1914. bankers will give one the wisdom nec- j 1 essary to handle money wisely, j When you Invest In some things—' J stocks, for instance—you assume a business risk for the sake of sharing in j { business profits. But perhaps you are, ( not In a position to take "business i risks." Speculation is an expensive luxury. The wisest course for the person of j moderate resources is to keep entirely clear of it, no matter what form it : takes. When you speculate, you can 1 only HOPE to win, but with your money In a sound bank you can know just where your money is and what it is earning for you all the time. Savings bank deposits are better protected than money in any equally profitable and equally available di rect investment The protection is as nearly perfect as law can make any investment of money. That is why the savings bank ought to bo consid ered one of the foundations of our national safety and prosperity. Naturally Mr. Palmer hopes that tho Budd will be frostnipped. ANOTHER CHANCE FOR PROBE CONGRESSMAN PALMER has made a great show of "investi gating" the demands of paid agents of the State Democratic committee in exacting tribute from York and Adams county men ap pointed to postmasterships on the rec ommendation of the Reorganized Democracy of Pennsylvania, Con gressman Palmer naturally did not want the public to know that while he and two other reorganizers were going up and down the State 1 crying, "thief, thief," at everybody opposing tl.em politically, their own party man agers were picking the pockets of helpless postmasters under threat of dismissal if they did not '"hand' over" the cash. The Congressman will now have op portunity to extend his probe. Schuyl- I kill county oostmasters were also ap proached. They were not so "easy" as the York county crowd and held on to their money. Several of them did, however, give the State Democratic committee promissory notes. Imagine it! Postmasterships bought on promissory notes! We shall not be surprised to hear that elsewhere the postal jobs were parceled out on the installment plan—slo cash and $5 a month for life. , The Schuylkill county Democratic committee has made these accusations and announces that it is ready to back t' em up with "proof such as would be accepted in any court of law for all the above statements." Doubtless it would be Just as ready to present Jits information to Palmer for use in a Congressional probe. An . interesting sidelight on the I methods of the purists who are now trying to uplift the State government through the instrumentality of the Reorganized Democracy is that they intended to use the funds to be col lected from the Schuylkill county postmasters for the purpose of defeat ing Congressman Lee, the Democratic member who procured their appoint ments as postmasters. Oh, Jefferson, what political dinners are perpetrated in thy name! THE CHORAL SOCIETY THE judgment of Dr. Wolle, the noted musician who is in charge of the Harrisburg Choral So ciety, is that the coming music festival will be the very best iu the history of that organization. Dr. Wolle modest!, declines to accept any of the credit, ascribing all that to the singers themselves and to the splendid foundation laid by Dr. Gil christ, the long-time director of the organization who retired this year be cause of age and failing health. But no body of musicians can sit under such a master in the art of chorus leadership as Dr. Wolle and not feel the impression of his strong character : and superb musical ability. Dr. Wolle is conservative by nature and is apt to be more given to under stating than to over-rating, so his ! prediction that this year's recital of ' the choral society will be better than I ever may be taken at considerably I more than its face value. TRYING TO BUY INFLUENCE DEMOCRATIC newspapers have been making much of the speech of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Republican, of Massachusetts, in i favor of President Wilson's canal tolls j policy. The truth of the matter is 1 ■ that Lodge has made out a very bad " j case for President Wilson and his " | administration. 5 1 He say* that while the Republicans 1 ; were in control at Washington the ' | United States occupied a commanding ? position among the nations of the i world and had tho respect of all ■ Europe. He tells us that since Taft 1 left the White House all this has been ' changed and that now we have not only lost prestige but are looked upon - with distrust and suspicion abroad. > And, pray, what has brought about ' this condition? Nothing more or less ■ than the weak-kneed policies of Presl t dent Wilson and his advisers. To 5 remedy this Senator Lodge asks us 5 to offer Europe another sop in an i | attempt to purchase back our lost 1 position and influence. What we need at Washington is a . man with backbone sufficient to lay i down hard and fast foreign policies !> and then back them up with the full force of our great powers. We do not s need to pose as a bully to do this. We l need not go about with a chip on our ] j shoulders. But wc must ggt away 5 from the idea that our proper role In 3 the congress of nations is to play t Uriah Heap to the powers of Europe. Those Democratic postmasters of Schuylkill county who had not the live per cent, in cash were given the ac - commodation of a note by tho ready collector of the Democratic State com r mittec. Perhaps these financially em - barrassed postmasters will be given a free tickets to the Jefferson dinner in this city next week. 1 Many honest and worthy Kepubll 3jeans who are now out of work and who voted against their party two years ago are .going to think long and well before they enter the voting booth next November. Appeals for support of President Wilson will not cut much figure with the men out of work through Democratic tariff tinkering and other theories of government "Thou hast been weighed in the bal ances and art found wanting" would be a proper legend to spread upon the walls of the Chestnut Street Audito rium when the big Democratic dinner shall bo served next week. Riding into power between the divided hosts of the Republican party, the Democracy has within the short .space of oue year demonstrated its utter incapacity to manage the affairs of the United States in a way acceptable to the people. All the appeals of Palmer and those of the little group associated with him for support of the President and his poli cies will fall upon deaf ears in Penn sylvania and throughout the country. EVENING CHAT I Notwithstanding the effort being made to discourage the purchase of finery for the Easter parade of fashion a good many people will to-morrow wear new tilings to church or for the afternoon walk and in so doing they will be doing as their grandparents did' fifty or sixty years ago in Harris burg. "People used to have Easter 'parades' back in the days before the Civil War, but they were not as elabo rate as they are now," said one of the older residents last evening in talking about the great Spring day. "In every community where there are many Germans you will find that Easter has a very strong significance and I no ticed for years in Harrisburg that much attention was given to the re ligious services. Not that it is not as much observed by churches as it used to be. In fact, it is rather more so, but there is more of a festal oocasion. Everyone used to go to service, but there was not as much effort to em phasize the holiday as there is to-day. I recall how the bells used to ring early on Easter morning and everyone got up and had an early breakfast, in which eggs figured, and made a point of sprucing up and going to church. Winters used to bo more severe than they are now, or else we did not have is good facilities for keeping warm and felt it more, and the women folks welcomed Easter Day as the time to appear in Spring plumage. They dis carded their heavy winter clothing, which was generally of somber hue, ind put on lighter and brighter things. The men left off their o v ercoats, That nade our Easter parade equipment, but I must say that there was not so much walking as now. We used to ;o to and from church without going very far out of the way and to visit unong our relatives. Where were the ?hief promenading streets? Oh, Mar ket antl Second. Front street was nothing like What it is to-day arid the chief folks lived in Market or Second. You must remember there was not much town above North street in those days." The love of flowers, which has always been such a strongly marked •liaracteristic of Harrisburg at Easter ime, is being demonstrated in the city to-day by a display of flowers that is probably more elaborate than any yer known. The markets were filled with flowers this morning and hun ireds of blooms are being sold from vagons in the streets. In addition to he regular stands of the florists a number of storerooms have been ented for the sale of overflow stocks from nurseries The sale of cut fiow rs is rather less than usual, almost veryone turning to the potted-plants ir shrubs. It is also noticed that nany stores are displaying cut flowers ■vith their merchandise to-day. Speaking of flowers, it is interesting to note that it is the plan of Samuel B. Rambo, superintendent of public grounds and buildings, to see that not only are the native trees of Pennsyl ania represented in the Capitol Park, but to arrange for a comprehensive :>!an whereby the beautiful flowering shrubbery of the Keystone State has a place in the greater park. It is his idea when the extension is laid out to have not only trees which are native md ornamental, but to have the -hododendrons. laurel and other shrub bery represented. In short, the park extension, which will be one of thb ?reat beauty spots of the city, will •ontain trees and bushes which will me instructive as well for students in botany. The superintendent has been Thing a great deal of thought to the idornment of the park for some time ind has had the services of students from State College as well as pro fessors. It is his idea to ask them to make a study of the extension area some time next year so that when tho whole district is nearly in hand the of Public Grounds and Build ngs will have something to work on. U may be possible that some tests in Trowing shrubbery will be made be fore that. One of the suggestions made to the superintendent was that rhododendrons be planted along the slopes of the park on the four stre its on which it abuts. This will be con sidered along with other ideas which have been submitted by people who are taking an interest in the Capitol Park. A friend who found a letter dealing with days of long ago tells of a de scription of the Capitol Park about 1860. The park was then less than it is to-day because a large part was occupied as an arsenal. There were two large flower beds in front and sev eral fountains and each street had an entrance through the big Iron fence about on the same lines as now except that there were stone steps 'hat were objected to as very steep. ,Th soU had to be renewed occasionally •icause the slate and shale kept crop ping up and even fresh sod had a hard time getting along. The presentation of the old wooden pipe from the organ of Zion Lutheran by Dr. S H. Simon, of Brook 'vn. N. Y„ to the Dauphin County Historical Society on Thursday even ing recalls the fact that the old church was destroyed by flre. along with the home of Dr. Simon's parents and sev eral huslness places and dwellings, in October, 183 8. After the church was rebuilt and before its consecration William Henry Harrison was nomi nated for President at a national con vention held in the edifice and was subsequently elected and inaugurated. Half a dozen or more loons have established a temporarv habitat along the Susquehanna in this vicinity and rivermen tell some creepy stories of the weird "laughter" of the big birds. The height of the river and the piers of (he 'cross-river bridges offer splen did opportunity for special stunts In high diving. The feathered visitors have little or no trouhle In getting enough food to keep them and they are safe, of course, from the guns of huntsmen.

GETTING RECKLESS Some Are Filing Papers For Nomi nations by More Than One Party's Man MORE FOR JUDGE TREXLER Allegheny County Adds a Petition For the Superior Court Judge Today Candidates for the Legislature do not appear to be troubling themselves any more about staying within party lines than they did two years ago. A number have filed papers to be candi dates on both Republican and Demo cratic tickets and one man has filed papers to run as Republican and Washington candidate. Most of these dual nomination petitions seem to have come from the anthracite re gions, although requests have been made at the Capitol for papers on dif ferent tickets in behalf of the same candidate. One of the remarkable things about the tiling of papers appears to be the manner in which the Socialists are fil ing papers. They have already enter ed about forty, covering congress, senator and representative and cor respondence shows that more may be expected. Judge F. M. Trexler, of the Superior Court, is the only one to file any nomi nation petitions for the State courts. None of the aspirants for Supreme Court has entered papers, al- More Papers though four are ex- are Filed pected. Judge Trexler For Trexler 1 will probably be unop- posed unless the Pro hibitionists re-enter the papers for Clark, of Philadelphia, whose papers were found short of the required num ber. Supplemental papers for Judge Trexler wero filed again to-day, a pa per from Allegheny signed by many prominent men, including lawyers, be ing entered. A few days ago papera from Mercer and Jeffetson were enter leu for him. Democrats from every section of the State' will gather in Harrisburg the early part of next week and it is likely that sharp factional lines will develop if Democrats any attempt is made I ook For 10 have the meeting of Dynamite the Democratic State committee endorse any candidates for nomina tions to be made at the May primary. The Democrats are coming for the an nual Jefferson day dinner of the Cen tral Democratic Club on Monday night and the meeting of the Democratic State committee on Tuesday morning. The dinner is to be held In the same place where William J. Bryan made his speech ti» the club last year and the expectation is that 700 persons will attend. The speakers will be Sec retary of the Navy Daniels and Sec retary of Labor Wilson, the latter a speaker at recent dinners of the club; i Congressman A. Mitchell Palmer, State Chairman Roland S. Morris and Vance C; McCormick, the latter an active member of the club. The meeting of the State committee is called "to re ceive and act upon a report from the ' committee appointed to revise the rules of the party and to transact such other business as may be properly brought before the meeting." Men connected with politics see an opening for a fight in the common phrase as | to the purpose of the meeting as any thing may be in order and in the i present desperate state of the Palmer ! McCormick campaign anything may be attempted to gain an advantage. | The reorganizers are believed to have control of the committee, but not as strongly as a few months ago. Some of the figures on enrollment which are coming in from the western end of the State show the strength of the return to the party movement among the Republicans who Republicans voted for Roosevelt in Gaining in 1912. In Cambria Enrollment county, for instance, the enrollment of Re- publicans outside of Johnstown is 8.537 out of a total enrollment - of 16,- 290. The Bull Moosers enrolled but 1,410 and the Democrats 5,686. A similar slump among Washington party men is shown in Mercer county, where 6 500 Renublicans and only 1.100 Washingtoninns enrolled. Tho Democrats enrolled about 5,000 in Mercer. The Central Democratic Club last night heard Herr Moeslein tell why the veto of the labor wage ordinance was appreciated in Harrisburg and J. J. Lybarger mvstlfied members with a discussion of the Income tax. The Bull Moose presidential electors are arranging for a dinner of the col lege from Pennsylvania and jt will be held at Pittsburgh when Colonel Roosevelt can attend. Gifford Pinchot Is In charge. Philadelphia Democrats are await ing with interest tbe nomination of a successor to John H. Land's, superin tendent of the United States mint, whose term expires at th« end or this month. Among those who have been mentioned for the place are Congress man J. Washington Log'ie, Senator Jnmes T. Tv'ulty. Dr. W. Horace Hos- Hns and Joseph E. Fabian. It was yesterday that Congressman Palmer might recommend one of his lieutenants In hig congressional dis trict for the office. rPOLITICAL SIDELIGHTS" —Herr Moeslein rushes in where c en candidates fear to discuss labor vetoes. —Neverthe'ess and notwithstanding, there was nothing said in the official deninl about free tickets to the Jef ferson day dinner. —State Chairman Morris is not In clined to be precipitate In discussing, the post office scandals. —Between the post offleo and free t'eket scanda's. the outlook Is for a stormy Farter at the Democratic windmill In Market Souare. —When sent a free ticket It wits a crime.

THE CLEAN-UP CRUSADE 1 [Chester Times.] Pennsylvania towns are in the midst r of a good fever. In various places a ' campaign is on to Improve the c"v or 1 town by instituting Clean-up Days. We must string in with this move ment. ; There is a method in the cleaning [ fever this year that promises the best | results. While all householders, mer chants and manufacturers have been ' asked to help, the matter is not to be left to the initiative of these persons, s but committees will supervise the work and see that It Is well dono. In I other years the success of tho Clean- I up Day has depended upon the energy ■ of some city official, but this year there seems to be a desire to relieve the city authorities as much as pos . sible of very much of the responsibll t lty for bringing about good sanitary . conditions. In one of the cities of this State s committees have been appointed by i trade bodies, civic societies, women's • clubs, the public schools, lodges and • churches. The territory Is districted, ■ each committee looks after operations ' in its own section, while a general ov -1 ersight is left to some city official. ' With general co-operation on this plan ' the matter of getting funds for wag ons to haul away the refuse is not dif ficult, while the enthusiasm that will be brought into the crusade against dirt will insure the best results. The civic advantages of such a , movement, not to mention the effect . on the general health and well being of the community, would alone make the effort worth while.

DAWS AND THE SNOWSIK.E TRAIL J Smoke-blue with flush of pink, Dawn paints the winter sky; Over the ledge's brink Rose hues leap pulsing high; Then It's swish, swish, and a crunching stride— A myriad frost-gems scuffed aside, And it's ho! for the snowshoe trail. Sentries with shrouded hoods, Guarding the jewelled snow— White-tufted, silent woods Light with the warming glow— Oh, it's swish, swish, with a quick'ning glide, 'Round the bending birch where the owlets hide, And It's hark to the whistling quail. Through dim and muffled aisels, . | Skirting the frozen brooks; By pines in ."errled illes, Stalking the wild-land nioks; Then it's crunch, crunch, and a crouching slide, 'Til the sparkling crust twangs the tense rawhide, And it's heads to the stinging gale.
