An After Christmas Sale
That Spells Economy to Lovers of Good Clothing
Economy does not necessarily mean low prices—many a garment
bought at a cheap price may prove extravagance of the worst sort.
Economy DOES MEAN getting "value received" for what you pay
out. There are true economic values in clothing of THE GLOBE
kind—and we back up our statement with an ironclad guarantee.

pany a bill providing that a State com
mission for the settlement and collec
tion of taxes, recommended by the
Economy and Efficiency Commission.
The proposition is to make the cor
poration report years uniform. Now
the capital stock report must bo made
out for the year ending November 1
and there are different periods for re
ports on corporate loans and gross re
ceipts. One of the suggestions is that
corporations be required to report for
the calendar year and that they be
given sixty days in which to tile their
reports without being considered de
linquent. Now corporations are show
ering in their reports, special reports
being required by the State for periods
not covered by anything else.
The proposition for a State tax com
mission has been mooted for several
years. It would put the settlement of
the fifteen or sixteen millions of State
taxes from corporations in the hands
of three men instead of the Auditor
General and his deputies, who have
other duties to perform. These threo
would be selected by the Attorney
General, Auditor General and State
Treasurer.

ARTHUR D. BROWN
formed a permanent organization to
give Impetus to (he movement to make
the Academy a source of great pride
to every resident of Harrisburg.
The reunion was arranged by a com
mittee composed of John Mcllhcnny
Smith, Ehrman B. Mitchell, Jr., and
\V. C. Dunlap, which, by dint of great
I endeavor, secured the first big list of
I alumni and by greater endeavor got
the men to the Academy. Before the
talks there was singing by groups and
| classes with the assistance of an or
chestra composed of David Fleming,
rird, Albert H. Stackpole and Daniel
Kunkel. Later on Mr. Smith an
nounced congregational singing and
Dr. George R. Motfitt led, being sup
ported by reserves made up of Frank
A. Awl, Robert McCormiek, Claude
E. Brinser and other singers of older
Academy days. A collation followed
the singing and then Mr. Smith took
hold of things.
John Fox Weiss opened the speech
making with a talk on school spirit
and ways to get results. Mr. Weiss'
address was in a serious tone and filled
with excellent suggestions. He was
followed by Vance C. McCormiek,
president of the board of trustees of
the Academy, in a speech in which he
told of old days in the Academy in
Front street, and of being catapulted
down the river bank as a form of
hazing and of kicking goals with an
arc light as the goal post. Mr. McCor
miek outlined what he hoped to see
I the Academy some years hence. Ed
i win S. Herman, one of the trustees,
| went into the business end of affairs,
! referring to his old days and telling
how the alumni could help the insti
; tution grow when it needed aid.
Headmaster Arthur E. Brown was
given an ovation when Mr. Smith pre
sented him and his discussion of life
at the school, his hopes and his de
sires were received with the closest
attention. Dr. Brown said that the
Academy had an opportunity pos
sessed by few schools in the country
and pointed out how the institution
could be made a great help to' the
city. He emphasized the need of a
dormitory to make the place self-sup
porting.
Suggestions for the immediate for
mation of a permanent organization of
alumni to secure a list of all former
students and interest them in what the
school is doing were made by A. Boyd
Hamilton, chairman of an alumni
committee which aided the school to
secure equipment of Seiler field. A
committee was then named to name
officers and start things, consisting
of E. Z. Wallower, Vance C. McCor
mick, Luther R. Moffltt, A. Boyd Ham
ilton and Ehrman B. Mitchell, Jr.
This committee reported a plan and
these officers:
President—William Jennings.
Vice-presidents—Dr. John
lager, Ross A. Hlckok.
Secretary—Ehrman B. Mitchell, Jr.
Treasurer—George E. Etter.
The suggestion was enthusiastically
received and the officers elected, glve"h
authority to name committees and
pledged support with cheers. The
committees will be named within a
short time.
While the committee was struggling
with its problem, George Kunkel, Jr.,
and other alumni of recent years were
called upon to make minute-speeches
and the hard-working orchestra added
immensely to their comfort.
