SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 10
CAN PRAY AND VOTE, TOO
TO-MORROW, at the request of
Governor Brumbaugh, the
churches of Pennsylvania afid
all of the organizations identi
fied therewith, will voice their demand
for the passage of a local option law.
To-morrow every man and woman
who believes in the right of the peo
ple to rule will take part in the local
option services and join in prayers
for the success of the legislation for
which the Governor is making such a
splendid fight.
The church people of Pennsylvania,
when they are united on any one sub
ject, are the mightiest force in the
State, both because of their numbers
and because they comprise beyond
any question the very best element of
our citizenship.
The church and liquor are as far
apart as the poles. One appeals to
the best there is in man; the other
to the very worst. It is, therefore,
proper that the sincere church mem
ber take his stand to-morrow tirmly in
opposition to the enemy that has done
more than any one other thing in the
world to stay the progress of Chris
tianity and to hold back the brother
hood of man.
For years the liquor element has
poked fun at the churches. The Sun
day school man has been the butt of
the barroom joke for decades. Wine
has made a mockery of religion;
strong drink has raged against the re
strictions of Christian temperance.
To-day the church is to voice its pro
test. To-day the Sunday school man
—and his name is legion—will arise
to prove his manhood and in righteous
indignation deal a blow that will send
old John Barleycorn staggering to the
ropes.
And woe he to the legislator who
takes no heed. He need never expect
favor again at the hands of the good
people of the State. A vote against
against local option when the bill
comes before the legislature is equiva
lent to a political death warrant In
ninety-nine out of every hundred vot
ing districts in Pennsylvania. i.«?
no member deceive himself with the
thought that he will slip through next
year on a Presidential wave.
tle is going to be fought out at the
primaries, if by Any chance local op
tion should fail at this session, and
the decent, order-loving advocates of
fair play and honest dealing are going
to see to it that all parties nominate
men who will be pledged to the enact
ment of county option. The man who
betrays the interests of the people at
this time may expect no support fcom
the friends of temperance in the fu
ture.
To-ntorrow the church people of
Pennsylvania will ask for local option.
If they do not get it the*.- may decide
shortly that they want State-wide pro
hibition. ■ An outraged electorate is as
explosive as a lyddite shell. Trifling
■with it makes "fooling with a buzz
saw" seem by comparison a pleasant
and harmless pastime.
And legislators should remember
that churchmen can vote, as well as
pray.
THE M UX POINT
A PROFESSOR of something or
other, whose name escapes us
for the moment, has been telling
Philadelphia audiences how-
Moses performed some of his miracles.
The professor, according to reports in
the newspapers of that town, has just
returned from a somewhat hurried
trip to the Sinaitic peninsula and
Palestine. It is to be inferred from
the accounts that the length of the
visit to these historic regions would
have been more protracted but for a
lack of hospitality on the part of the
natives that all but amounted to mur
der. In the circumstances, it is per
haps reasonable to assume that had
conditions been more auspicious for
that kind of research the professor
would have been tempted to seek the
keys of all the "signs and the wonders"
of the story of Moses, beginning with
the burning bush and continuing right
down to the dry-shod passage of the
river Jordan. As it was, he only
•olved two of the problems, and only
after a fashion at that.
It was a credulous people that wit
nessed the miracles of Moses, but the
man who attempts to explain them in
this part of the globe to-day of neces
sity addresses his remarks to an ex
tremely skeptical audience. That there
is a natural explanation for them all
Intelligent people are willing to admit,
hut in the absence of proof that will'
withstand scientific scrutiny one man'a
SATURDAY EVENING,
guess is as good as another's. The
guessing, be It observed, began early,
has continued persistently throughout
the centuries since the problem pre
sented itself, and the end is not yet.
At all events, the remarks of the Phila
delphia professor are not calculated
to discourage ambitious young guessers
of the future from trying their brains
on the fascinating enigma.
After all It does not ma|ter so. much
what means Moses employed, although
it must be admitted that definitive
explanations would prove highly inter
ssting. The all important fact is that
the wonder-working thingß which had
such a pronounced influence upon the
fortunes of tl»e Children of Israel and
all subsequent history actually oc
curred. Upon this there is not the
slightest room for dispute.
SIGNS OF THE TIMES
THE fluctuations of the stock
market for the past few days
have puzzled even the most as
tute observers. Business condi
tions do not warrant such remarkable
rises as have been recorded in some
of the leading industrial and railroad
securities, experienced bankers and
brdkers assert. The "market is in the
hands of the public," they say.
If that be true It is explanation
enough, rt indicates a general .belief
in the improvement of business on an
extensive scale in the very early fu
ture. and that being so nothing can
stop a trade revival such as did not
appear possible for this year even as
late as a few weeks ago.
There is no reason, however, why
business should not Improve. The
war has for the time being nullified the
evil effects of the Underwood tariff.
Our exports of all kinds are Increasing
in volume. War orders are back of
many of the sensational increases in
value that have marked this week's
trading in the leading industrials.
Prospects for an enormous grain crop
are bright, according to government
reports, the winter wheat alone be
ing ample to take care of all possible
domestic requirements.
Therefore, business can go ahead
fearless of any new stumbling blocks.
The war, whether of short or long
duration, will prevent any disastrous
effects from tariff tinkering until a
Republican Congress sets things
straight again, and Congress having
adjourned it may be %ssutned that
there will be no more experimentation
at Washington.
REFORM BY EDUCATION
THE announcement of fclty Health
Officer Raunick that he will Is
sue at intervals shortly a bul
letin of his department's ac
tivities, with special thought for the
education of milk dealers and food
merchants In the sanitary handling of
thetr products, is a step in the right
direction. Publications of the kind
are distributed broadcast by many cit
ies throughout the country and much
good has resulted therefrom.
Last month the Health Board
caused the low grade samples of
cream collected to drop from 26 to 4,
as compared with the month previous,
by reason of prompt and aggressive
prosecutions. But more good of a per
manent nature will be done by educa
tion than by means of force. The
gentle method in most cases is blest.
The milk dealer who is brought to a
full understanding of what the Board
requires and the reason for these re
quirements. and who is taught how
to avoid the pitfalls that lead to im
pure milk, with its consequent fines for
the milkman and sickness for the cus
tomer, will be less likely to violate the
rules than he who Is merely punished
for violations, but is left in ignorance
as to the wherefore.
THE HOUSING CONFERENCE
MUCH good should, come from
the housing conference to be
held in Harrisburg the com
ing week. While it is true that
all people live in mansions, it
is also true that everybody is entitled
to a decent, sanitary abiding place,
with an abundance of sunshine and
surroundings that make for health.
The slum is an abomination to the com
munity. Not only does it drag down
to sickness and early death thousands
ofits residents, but it reaches its slimy
hand even into the homes of more
fortunate neighborhoods and the trail
of its germ-laden footsteps leads ever
toward the grave.
We in Harrisburg are now facing a
new building era of no small propor
tions, and while it is desirable that
every effort be made to have the city's
future in this respect well guarded, the
greatest good may be accomplished In
the older sections, some of which even
now are being over-croVded as a result
o# the shifting of the population from
the Capitol extension zone up-town. /
general cleaning up and improvement
of dilapidated properties must be in
sisted upon. Few landlords will stand
in the way of such a movement and
those who may be inclined to do so
can be driven into line.
ENCOURAGE THE BIRDS
J HORACE M'FARLAND'S com
mendation, as president of the
• American Civic Association, of
the plan of Park Superintendent
Taylor to erect "bird hotels" in the
city parks ought to serve as a hint to
bird-loving residents of Harrisburg.
The "bird hotels" should be supple
mented by "bird cottages." big enough
at least for one nest, and they should
be scattered broadcast over the city.
Any boy can make a bin? house.
The Telegraph of yesterday contained
diagrams of an easily constructed little
house that would be an ornament to
any lawn and a welcome refuge for
the martins and other birds that are
now coming in vast numbers from
winter quarters In the South to spend
thc-ir summer with us. A few pieces
of board, a handful of nails, a saw and
a hammer are all that arc required,
plus a little of that fine mechanical
Ingenuity and energy for which Ameri
can boys are noted.
AX EVENING THOUGHT
In the maddening maze of things.

I EVENING CHAT 1
Friends of Col. Joseph B. Hutchi
son, of the Eighth regiment are ex
tending congratulations to him upon
his attainment of seniority in the list
of colonels In command of regiments
in the National Guard, which was
brought about by the advancement of
CoK Christopher T. O'Neil, of Allen
town, to be brigadier general com
manding the Fourth brigade. The
Eighth Is a. part of the brigade, it be
ing composed of the Fourth, the
[O'Xelll regiment, the Sixth and the
T'lghth. Col. Hutchison's commission
dates from 1902, his election having
occurred when the Eighth was on an
thracite strilje duty In Luzerne
county. Col, Hoffman, the command
er. died In a .hospital at Scranton.
Col. O'Xelll who served sixteen years
as colonel of the Fourth, is almost a
Harrlsburgor, as he was super
intendent of the State ar
senal under Governor Robert
E. Pattlson and resided here, making
many friends. It happens that Col.
Hutchison is also away up on the list
of colonels even in the staff of the
guard and he will be in line for pro
motion to the single star one of these
days. Next in rank to the colonel is
F. T. Stillwell, of the Thirteenth, with
headquarters at Scranton, who was
commissioned in 1904. Other coloneis
dating from that decade are Hamilton
D. Turner, of the Second, commission
ed in 1906: Richard Coulter, of the
Tenth, and G. C. Richards, of the Six
teenth, who were commissioned in
1907. Col. W. B. Follmer, Just trans
ferred to the inactive list as a result
of the disbandment of the Twelfth,
was commissioned in 1910.
It has been many years since Har
risburg was the headquarters of a bri
gade of the Guard, none of the Guards
men now serving recalling such honor
to the city. Harrisburg has been the
! militia headquarters ever since it be
came the capital and has been regi
mental headquarters at long intervals,
but not a brigade headquarters.
Robert S. Gawthrop ex-distrlct attor
ney of Chester county, who is being
boomed for judge of his county, is
well known to many Harrlsburgers as
he is the man who had charge of the
prosecutions growing out of the
Coatesville riots and was frequently
here in consultation with the State au
thorities.
A friend interested in local option
gives the interesting information that
Harrisburg, which has been referred
to every now and then as doubtful on
votes on the liquor question, voted for
local option at the election held in
1873. The vote can be found on page
361 of Smull'B handbbok for 1875
and shows that Dauphin county voted
3517 In favor of it and 2225 against,
a majority of 1292, while the vote of
Harrisburg was 2049 in favor and
1982 against, a majority of 67. Some
time ago there appeared in this col
umn the vote on the prohibition
amendment in 1886 which showed
that Dauphin and Cumberland voted
with the "drys." The sentiment years
before was "dry" also in this county.
Some sure signs of Spring were
noted about the city yesterday. One
was that three men were drowsing on
the courthouse steps in the afternoon
and that people were carrying home
magnolia bushes with the flowers
started. The horse chestnut trees are
also budding in Capitol Park and
there is a marked demand for garden
tools.
"At least one bartender of my ac
quaintance rigidly observes the law's
requirements relative to selling liquor
to 'persons visibly intoxicated'" de
clared a South Harrisburg m&n the
other day. "Last evening." mid he,
"I happened to drop In a hotel to see
a fellow and while we were talking it
over I noticed several foreigners at
the bar. They were plainly " pretty
thoroughly intoxicated. However one
of them decided he wanted another
glass of gin. The bartender, himself
a foreigner, gravely nodded, filled a
gin glass with water and dropped
some mint into the glass—that gave
the colorless appearance of gin you
know—and shoved the preparation
across the bar. 'Nev* mind,' said* he
genially to the drunken patron." that's
all right, have this one on me.' And
he graciously waved aside the prof
f<»red money. Then he carefully wink
ed to me. 'Just as good and mebbe
better in this case,' hfe whispered.
But the foreigner smacked his lips
with gusto as he poured down his
drink."
Governor Rrumbaugh is getting his
recreation in golf, but he says he
does not get* enough. The Governor
likes the came and takes great in
terest in "approach shots," not being
so strong for long drives.
Men at work in the trenches in
Market Square take a big interest in
the news as cried by the newsboys
selling papers to passengers who
change cars. Yesterday afternoon a
newsie was • crying about German
trenches being choked with dead.
"Here, boy, read that to me," remark
ed one of the workmen. The boy did
so, and the news was shouted down
the line of sweating diggers.

Helping The
Small Store Keeper
Because of his neighborhood
limitations it is hard for the
small storekeeper to advertise.
But he can make the manu
facturer's newspaper advertising
a splendid means to draw busi

This advertising in the news
papers makes the goods familiar
to th>- people In the storekeep

They will want to get them
and they will go to the store that
sells them.
When the small storekeepers

The effort does not Increase

demands of second class city officials
that the act be permitted to stand is
to be heard and it is probable that
there will he no disturbance of the
nonpartisan feature of the third class
city law.
There is a demand, however, from
many of the interior counties l'or re
peal of the nonpartisan act as far as
the judges are concerned and if pos
sible an effort will be mad® to present
a bill in the senate when the pending
bill is reported negatively. The idea
is to take care of counties where the
act has be*n a failure.
—lt is expected that numerous can

Court after the legislature adjourns.
The booms for Judges Orlady and
Hfcad are making progress all over
the State and an effort to put Judge
H. A. Fuller, of Luzerne, to the front
will be made if Judge Rice persists in
his refusal to be a candidate.

at a party at one of the game preserves
along Young Woman's creek, a band
of former residents of Renovo will

—Representative W. D. Walton, of
New Castle, is being boomed for the
Republican congressional nomination
in the 24th district, and it is probable
that he will launch his candidacy when
the session closes. Mr. Walton has
served several years and is chairman
of the House municipal corporations
committee. He is one of the most
effective members in the House and al
though not much on speaking, is
strong on action.
—Northern tier members are tak

AI.WAYS WANTING
By Winn Dinger
There are some things that oft take
place
Which seem quite strange to me,
In fact there quite the opposite
Of what I'd think they'd be.
For instance, take the man who owns
An auto, ho will go
for some miles, whereas
He could ride, don't you know?
And others who could walking go #
Stay homo their hearth beside,
And wish that they might own a car
So they could take a ride.
I guess It's sort of human, though.
That folks who have a lot
Should want the thing they do not
have
Like others who have naught.

The best aid these men have is

good blood, and likewise good blood
means good stomach.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis

Every organ is rejuvenated. This

It dissolves impure deposits and car

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING
One of the most remarkable exam
ples ever presented in proof of the effi
ciency of newspaper advertising has
been furnished through the huge suc
cess achieved by the "House of Wurlit
zer" of Chicago. Just ten years ago this
great concern decided to enter the
Chicago Held, and as a preliminary
to its business requirements, the con
cern laid aside $25,000 to be used ex
clusively in newspaper advertising.
During the year 1914 the total expen
diture for newspaper advertising ex
clusively in Chicago amounted to $50,-
000, and the business income for the
yeaV amounted to $1,250,000. divided
among the Wurlitzer chain of twenty
two music stores. The advertising
copy of this house has attracted wide
attention among men who are always
interested in the kind of copy that sells
goods—and through newspaper adver
tising the Wurlitzer arguments have
