SEIAIQR PENROSE
VISITS MILL TOWNS
Talks in Sharon, Farrell and Other
Places Hit by the Wilson
Tariff Law
i
Sharon, Pa., May 1. —Senator Boies 1
Penrose was given a great welcome by ,
\ Mercer county yesterday and hailed as i
the leading exponent of the protective
tariff system In Congress and cheered
as a statesman whom the people of
Pennsylvania would retain in public i
life. Senator Penrose met hundreds
of the voters of this county, made two '
speeches and conferred with his cam
i paign managers relative to political
conditions in this section of the State.
He declared that what he had learned
here had convinced him that Mercer
county, like other counties he had vis
ited, had undergone a remarkable
change of political sentiment since the
presidential election of 1912 and that
the people now eagerly were awaiting
an opportunity to vote for a restoration
of the economic policies of the Repub
lican party.
On his arrival in Sharon Senator
Penrose was met at the station by a
delegation from the Sharon Civic As
sociation, headed by Attorney H. W.
Davis, at the Carver Hall Hotel, where
he made his headquarters. There
awaited him a gathering of Mercer
county party workers, including nearly
every politician of prominence in the
county. He was driven to the Sharon
County Club to attend a luncheon ar
ranged in his honor by the business
men and manufacturers of the county.
At Farrell Penrose was greeted by
men who worked In the mills but who
are now out of employment. They
assured him that they had had enough
of Democratic tariff legislation and
that they would vote the Republican
ticket with enthusiasm.
The Slienango Valley unmistakably
shows bad results of the operation of
tho Underwood tariff law. In Sharon *
are located big iron and steel plants x
that are running about half time. *
Thousands of wage-earners are out of 1
work. i
At one employment bureau here a '
few days ago more than 800 men 1
sought work and did not get it. As i
affecting the Sharon Steel Hoop Com- j
pany Manufacturers Cotton Ties, the
Underwood law placed cotton cies on
the free list and the plant is running
only about 40 per cent, of its capacity
I and may close temporarily.
I The demand of the wage-earners for
I a restoration of the protective tariff
j system clearly was shown at a meet
ing Senator Penrose addressed at the
Orpheuia Thea,ter. The theater was
crowded and in the audience was a
large representation of the mill work
ers. He was greeted with a burst of
applause when presented by William
O. Davis, burgess of Sharon. He made
a speech, in which he predicted that
the people would return the Repub
lican party to power at tho first oppor
tunity. When he referred to William
McKlnley. constructive statesman and
protectionist, he was wildly cheered.
Every reference he made to Repub
lican victory this year was vigorously
applauded. Senator Penrose said:
"There Is one test, and only one
test, of the economics of a political
party," said Senator Penrose. "That
test is as cold-blooded and as In
fallible as war. It is the test of
whether or not the country is pros
perous. You can well contrast the
difference between protection and
Democratic tariff legislation in tht,
past year.
"Eighteen months ago you would
not have listened to me or to anybody
else who made a tariff speech. Th&
people then wanted talks on remedy
ing conditions. Now we all want to
advance the cause of humanity, and
one of tlie best progressive doctrines
ever advanced is the protection of the
American wage-earner from compe
tition from the low-paid labor of
Europe.
"It has been seventeen years since
my last appearance in Sharon, which
was in the campaign for the election
of William McKlnley. At that time
our country was in a state of distress.
The Wilson tariff bill had governed
the country for three years. I will
never forget some of the scenes I wit
nessed in every county through which
I passed."

WHITE CROSS LEAGUE
STARTS ACTIVE WORK
!
Widespread Movement to Encour
age Men and Women to Set
Up Single Standard
i
■v *•
LEROY B. HARNISH
Special to The 'Telegraph
Carlisle, Pa., May I.—With the ap
pointment this Spring of L<}roy B.
Harnish, a graduating student at Leb
anon College, as the head of the
White Cross Single Standard League
of America in the State of Pennsylva
nia, widespread activity has begun for
the reclamation of the purity of the
individual from a different point of
attack than has ever before been con
sidered effective.
The league purposes to have young
men and women reclaim themselves
by damming up the rivers of Immoral
ity at their foundation heads, by an
appeal to their own self interest. While ,
the league does not discredit mission ,
work nor the well-directed efforts of
the ordinary reform factors, it feels '
that young people must realize of their i
own motion their vital interest in sex 1
purity, specifically. (
This Single Standard organization
stands for recognition of the principle
that men must be as pure as women.
It is a branch of the World's Purity
Federation, organized internationally
and is associated with an English '
body now beginning similar work.
Isola' d chapters have been estab- ,
lished at half a dozen points in Penn
sylvania and the interest displayed by
the members Is evidence that its or
ganizers will probably have no trouble
in dotting the entire State with
branches. At present college men
and women, members of young men's
and women"! Christian Associations,
Academy boys, and high school youths
are being encouraged to set up the
Single Standard, but the league ex
pects to extend its field into individual
churches, Sunday schools and all secu
lar organizations where such activities
would be appropriate.
A corps of volunteer lecturers, head
ed by such men as Headmaster W. A. i
Hutchison, of Conwa Hall; Attorney;
E. E. McCurdy, of Lebanon; Profes
sor C. H. Arndt, of Annville, and Vice
president Harnish of Carlisle, have _
been covering parts of the State and
have found young men and women
surprisingly well informed and in
terested in their moral welfare.
Subscribers to the objects of the
league are provided with pledge cards
which they keep and which contain
the following pledges for men:
I—To treat all women with respect
and endeavor to protect them from |
wrong and degradation.
2—To endeavor to put down all in
decent language and coarse jests.
3—To maintain the law of purity as
equally binding upon men and women.
4—To endeavor to spread these prin
ciples among my companions and to
try and help my younger brothers. |
s—To use every "ossible means to I
fulfill the command, "Keep thyself
pure."
In addition two pledges are substi
tuted for women:
"To bo modest in language, behavior
and dress."
"To avoid conversation, art and !
amusements which will put impure i
thoughts into the mind.
The league is desirous of getting in
touch with every person In the State
of Pennsylvania who wants to help
this work. Literature will be sent to
any one writing Loroy B. Harnish,
Carlisle, Pa., and the co-operation of
everyone is desired in the extension
and building up of the organization
work.
EXTRAVAG ANCE OF THE
ANCIENTS
There appears to be a foundation
for the wellworn tale of Cleopatra's I
wager with Mark Anthony, that at a
single meal she would swallow the'
value of a province, the tale is too
well known to need recapitulation i
here, but the historian Pliny distinct- I
ly states that the practice of dissolving'
pearls, which Imparted a delicious!
flavor to the wines, was known and!
practiced by the wealthy long before j
the time of Cleopatra.
There is, however, a perfectly well
authenticated tale to match that of
Cleopatra, re'ated of Sir Thomas
Grasham. the millionaire merchant of.
Queen Elizabeth's day, who, in order |
to shame the Spanish Ambassador,!
who was extolling the riches of his
master before Elizabeth, remarked I
"that the Queen had subjects who nt!
one meal would expend a sum equal
to the dally revenue of the King of
Spain and all his Grandees put to
gether." Soon after this, the Spanish
Ambassador was invited to dine with
the English Knight, when the latter
drew from his pocket a pearl for
which he had shortly before refused
seventy-five thousand dollars, ground
it to powder, and drank it to the health
of his mistress the Queen.
Who comes in summer to th'.s earth,
And owes to June her date of birth,
With ring of pearl unon her hand,
Can health and wealth and life com
mand.

TWO SUGGEST'OVK TO KEEP LACE
FRESH
If, after wearing a gown with lace
collar or yoke, the latter are, ■uppn
removing, dusted upon the inside with
talcum powder or gently rubbed with
a cakß of magnesia, ttje lace will re
tain its freshness a ninth longer time
than is usual.
A soiled lace yoke in a silk or
woolen dress may be easily cleaned
by brushing thoroughly in the meshes
finely powdered starch, letting it re
main h day or two. then brushing well.
The soil will be gone.——Home Depart

iUIUHTY MIDWAY SHOWS
Mirth, melody and music will be the
keynotes to the performances to be
given by Leon AV. Washburn's Mighty
Midway Shows and Trained Wild Ani
mal Arena and Jungle, which, under
the auspices of Loyal Order Moose, will
begin a week's engagement at Harils
burg, starting Monday, May 11.
Three things which impress visitors
with this wonderful attraction are its
overpowering magnitude; the perfec
tion of its organization and the su
preme excellence of an enterprise of
this kind. Notwithstanding its mag
nitude, the perfection of the organiza- !
tion, is apparent from the fact that its I
massive equipment is handled with the
quickness and celerity of a three ring
circus.
Detail description of the many won- l
derful features are impossible in so '
many words, and the performance with !
its beautiful spectacular pageant is I
one that will not soon bo forgotten by !
those who attend.
Leon W. Washburn, of New York I
City, the sponsor for this excellent at- i
traction, is known to be one of the I
cleverest Carnival producers in this I
country and Europe, the dexterity and
accuracy of his plans for laying out an
imen.se attraction such as Washburn's !
Mighty Midway Shows Is nothing short 1
of positive genius. Grounds, Sixth and
