And they said among themselves,
Ulio shall roll us away the stone from

And when they looked, they saw that

And entering into the sepulchre, they
saw a young man sitting on the right

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

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.

One Party's Man

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

that sharp factional

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 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.

I Or is It for the hellish deeds
In the days of tlintloek guns
When he hired savages to kill
Our wives and little ones?
Then why not a more appropriate .
Present to your old pal.
A tomahawk and scalping knife
Instead of our canal?
Or come down to a later day *
With a spirit just as mean,
Did he not turn pirates out to prey
On our unarmed marine?
With art and treachery most vile
All througluthose years of flood,
Did he not boost the Southern cause |
In every way he could?
Whose Is It anyway, Woodrow?
And who had the bill to pay?
Who put up the dudods to construct (
That mighty- waterway?
Who owns that ten mile strip of lund
And who'll control the same?
Is It simply you and Johnny Bull
Or have we a sort of claim?
In furthering your obsequious plans
With foreign diplomats
Please remember we're Americans
Before we're Democrats.
That some millions of us mark your
course ,
As to these coastwise tolls,
And may feel quite gratified once more 1
To meet you at the polls. j

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.
Heads up! let lungs free—
Wine of the Northland's air;
Great Spirit's chastity
Cleanses the soul of care.
Then it's hearts and limbs and it's step
out wide
O'er the scurried tracks on the white
hillside.
And huzza! for the snowshoe trail.

Beneath the glory of its Centn
