LARGE CIR ORDERS
FOR NIK PLANTS
Pennsylvania Rauroad Company
Distributes Another Big Bunch
of Prosperity
Orders for $16,000,000 worth of
freight cars were given yesterday by
the Pennsylvania railroad. This is by
far the largest expenditure of money
for equipment made by a railroad in
several years and is taken as indica
tion of the return of prosperity. Work
;upon these orders will give employ
ment to thousands of men all over the
country.
The $16,000,000 is the greater part
of the $20,000,000 recently appropri
ated by the Pennsylvania for the re
! placement of its rolling stock. The
other $4,000,000 will be spent by the
railroad itself in the manufacture of
locomotives at Its Altoona shops. All
the money will be spent during this j
year.
The orders given yesterday are for
14,041! cars, of all kinds for use on the
lines both east and west of Pittsburgh,
in this total are included 3,500 box
cars, 324 refrigerator cars, 3.000 gon
dola cars and 7219 hopper cars.
The work was distributed among a
number of her car works. The Press
ed Steel far Company will make 2.800,
the American far and Foundry Com
pany will make 3.4 43: the Standard
Steel Car Company will make 1.000,
the Calnbrla Steel Company will make
3,300, Haskell and Barker will make
2,500. and the ltalston Steel Car Com
pany will make 1.000. This will be a
big boom for all these plants, which
will work full blast from now on.
Still another big expenditure, which
will further aid the situation, is ex
pected in the next few weeks. It is
understood that the Pennsylvania has
already placed orders for 12,000 tons
of steel rails and will need about 170,-
000 tons in all, for which orders will
be given during the year. Bids have
been received this week and the offi
cers of the company may have them
under consideration.

ROM CLUB HEIRS
OF "SIX-SIX" PIRN
Prof. Koch Makes Recommenda
tions He Believes Would Work
Out Well Here
While carefully refraining from
criticism or recommendations that
might embarrass officials of the Har
risburg school district. Professor
Charles B. Koch, State inspector of
high schools, clearly intimated in an
address before the Harrisburg Rotary
Club, following a dinner at the Har
risburg Club last night, that the so
called "six-six'' school plan could be
worked out here to the advantage of
the public school system and the ma
terial benefit of the pupils. The "six
six" plan contemplates six years in the
lower schools and six years in high
schools-—three in a junior high school
and three in a high school proper.
Professor Koch originated this plan
in the Phillipsburg high school in 190u
and it has been widely adopted.
Professor Koch's address was deliv
ered at the invitation of the educa
tional committee of the Rotary Club,
which at its last meeting favored the
six-year high school system for this
city and authorized Dr. S. Z. Shope.
chairman, to have a report made by
an experienced educator. When Pro
fessor Koch was asked what steps
would be necessary to introduce the
plan in Harrlsburg he referred the
questioner to a local school authority
and D. D. Hammelbaugh, secretary of
the School Board, a member of the
Rotary Club, replied that there was
little prospect of such a change so long
as the people of the city displayed
their present unwillingness to spend
money for high school purposes. He
said the introduction of the system
would probably not relieve the present
necessity of two daily sessions in the
Central high school, because only
about 250 pupils would be taken from
the four-year school and placed in the
junior schools, which would still leave
too large a number to be handled in
one session, unless the large audi
torium were cut up into recitation
rooms.
Professor Koch said under the
six-six system Harrisburg would have
approximately 840 pupils in the three
year high school and about 1,650 in the
junior scliols, which, he thought, would
require three buildings. He reviewed
conditions in eleven of the larger in
land cities of the state, spoke of the
growing favor of the system by many
prominent educators and gave his
opinion that within a few years it
would be well Introduced in the schools
of the state.
The arguments in favor of the sys
tem were that it would in many cases
save a year in a student's school life,
and would start the study of languages
and vocational work in special lines at
a more susceptible age than Is possible
under the present system.
It was said to-day that the Rotary
Club's inquiry into high school con
ditions would not be dropped.
Introducing the speaker. Dr. Shope
called the Rotarians to task for not
visiting the schools, saying:
"You ought to get around to the
school at least two or three times a
year to encourage the teacher, the
school authorities and the pupils by
showing that you are interested in see-

We do not believe a whole lot in expending much money for newspaper advertising so that* we y v;J
