' FLYING SQIMORON
WILL HIDE COT
Prominent Men Will Speak For
Prohibition at Big Meeting;
Are Touring Country
Fatigued by th» long local option
light that centered in this city recently,
old General John Barleycorn and his
army of followers is rallying his scat
tered cohorts to repel* ths threatened
Invasion of the famed "Flying Squad
ron of America," an organisation of
speakers of national reputation, that
will come to Harrisburg, May 27, 28
Snd 29.
Grace Methodist Church has been se
lected by tile local committee as the
scene for the engagement. All the
speakers who are coining have had part
in a campaign that is going from ocean
to ocean, and they are expected to de
liver some hard thrusts at the weaken
ing Barleycorn forces.
William Bradford, advance agent for
the Flying Squadron, was in town to
day to confer with a number of promi
nent clergymen. He Is confident that
the meetings will be productive of
Splendid result*.
"Broadsides against the liquor traf
fic," he said, will be tired by every
member of the Flying Squadron at tha
coming meetings and the effect will go
a long way toward crystallizing the
temperance sentiment of the people of
Harrisburg."
He also points out that the Flying
Squadron is not being backed by any
sect or political party, but consists of
temperance workers who are imbued
with the desire to do something really
worth while for the cause.
Already about 230 of the leading
eities of the country have been vlsitea
by the Flying Squadron and every
where In the meetings, it is declared,
the speakers were received with a cor
diality which distinctly shows the trend
of the popular mind as to the disposi
tion which should be made of the liquor
traffic.
Professional singers and musicians
accompany the squadron and conduct
the musical program at all the gather
ings, making them, it is pointed out,
doubly attractive.
Former Governor J. Frank Hanly. of
Indiana, is the chairman of the Flying
Squadron committee, and is in general !
charge of the direction of the cam
paign which is being fought from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, and from Michi
gan and the far Northern States to
points in Florida and other extreme
Southern locations.

county, Illinois, not many miles from
the old home of Abraham Lincoln, he
received most of his early education j
at his mother's knee under her tutor
ship attended school but a few weeks
for several years, and then .at the age
of 13. started out to find his way in
the world, which led to the Governor
ship of Indiana at the age of 41. to
gether with other high honors, upon
all of which he turned his back when
the plan to aid mankind in the flight
for the suppression of the liquor traf
fic presented itself to his mind.

suing election raised 150 per cent.
Or. Tra Landrith, former president of }
the Ward Belmont College, of Xash- ;
ville. Tenn.. Presbyterian and former
moderator of the denomination's gen
eral assembly, the highest honor it can
confer, is another of the leaders work

tion-wide campaign. He was one of
the founders of the Tennessee Anti-
Saloon League, and is now a member
of the State executive committee of
the organization, having been a leader
of tfie work stnae Its inception. ->
He was also tfresident of tliß late
International convention of the Toung
Men's Christian Association has served
the association for twenty-one years
as chairman of the Tennessee State
committee, and is also connected
with many other efforts of a civic and
religious nature.
Dr. Charles M. Sheldon, known
throughout the world as an author of
note and an earnest exponent of prac
tical and livable Christianity, is also
included in the list of speakers. Known
beat by his famous book, "In His !
Steps." Or. Sheldon has seen It trans

and attain a circulation of millions of
copies in this country and Great Brit
ain. He is now minister-at-large of
the Central Congregational Church, of
