chairman of the park committee
which has the"tield day work in hand,
were early on the job. A squad of

Squire Defends Man
Before Another Justice
When David Stauffer, of Shoop's
• 'hurch. was haled before Squire J. K.
Henry, of Royalton, yesterday, to de
fend an action instituted by his
brother-in-law he was accompanied by
Squire George W. Rodfong. of Middle
lown.
" "Evening, Judge," said the Middle
town justice to his colleage. "What
do you mean ny arresting this man?
He's innocent and I'm going to see he
gets justice," he added smilingly.
The case against Stauffer was in
stituted by his sister's husband. John
Herr, of Conewago township, who
wanted Stauffer to pay $54 which he
claimed was due his wife for services
rendered her brother.
Throughout the hearing Squire Rod
fong cross-examined witnesses and
otherwise fulfilled the functions of an
alert attorney for the defense. When
all the evidence was in the Middle
town justice made a stirring plea in
behalf of the defendant.
That his plea touched the sympa
thies of his colleague is evident, for
Stauffer was not only discharged, but
the costs were placed upon the prose
cutor.

TAYLOR GIVES EBY
' VERY CLEAN BILL
1
Denies Reports of Resentment
and Knifing That Had Not
Reen Circulated
Friends of Sheriff Harry C. Wells,
one of the Democratic candidates for
county commissioner, were wondering
to-day what would he the next move
of the machine in the interest of
County Commissioner John H. Eby, j
| the other candidate Last nkht at j
!a sandwich meeting of the central |
Democratic Cluh the bosses had Sam- ]
uel M. Taylor, defeated for one of the 1
| nominations. tell how much he j
i thought of Hby. If Wells cot very
i much show h's friends were not put- I
j tins it on billboards to-day.
For many days the county has heen
full of tales about the manner In
which partisans of Eb.v were play
ing tlie same and while friends of J
Wells have heen getting mad over it j
thrv have refrained from making
. charges, Last night to the surprise !
lof everyone Taylor was put on the !
i speech-making rug at the cluh to sol- 1
emnly declare that he was not "sore" l
on Ehy and to deny that he or amy -
| of his friends had ever accused Eby's j
; gangsters of "knifing" Taylor at the
; primary.
j It was the tirst time many of the i
j Democrats who helried garnish the !
rooms last night had heard of Taylor I
I being "sore" and there were a lot of
I grins over the tremendous effort to
' deny something which must have ex- ;
isted up 1o date in the uneasy con- .
sciences of Eby's crew and his backers
j and nowhere else.
I A. R. Gardner, also defeated for \
i county commissioner, was given a few i
minutes on tlie rug and like Taylor I
pledged to support the whole ticket. J
However, he did not deny anv reports !
that he had been "knifed." Why Tay- !
lor did no one seemed to know to- I
day.
The various candidates all made
mutual admiration speeches, hut the '
affair was more like a wake than any
thing else.

TELLS TEACHERS OF
HEREDITY EFFECTS
City Institute Closes With Ad
dresses by McNeal and
Schißucker
"The higher forms of plant and
animal life have been given two par
ents so that they may inherit the bet
ter qualities of each one," Prof. S.
C. Schnmeker of the West. Chester
State Normal school faculty told the
teachers of the city at the closing ses
sion of the second day of institute this
morning.
Dr. Schmucker delivered a scholar
ly address on the subject "The Mean
ing of the Flower" in which he made
several startling declarations relative
to heredity. He said that nature
throws two dice—a high and a low
one. The former represents the
stronger physical types of man, while
the latter stands for the. weaker
classes. These, - nature removes often
in infancy, while the perfect specL
mens that survive usually were not
the case, he said, "each one of us
would be doomed to die with the same
disease from the same weak organ,
as our one parent."
The other speaker on the program
was Prof. R. M. McN'eal, former coun
ty superintendent, and at present con
nected with the State Department of
Public Instruction. His subject was
"School Government." After many
years of experience as a teacher and
supervisor he opined that all school
government should load to self-govern
ment and self-control.
During the intermission, Prof. John
W. Phillips, director and first tenor of
the Grace Methodist Episcopal choir
sang several selections. He was ac
companied by Mrs. Phillips. At last

"UPPER END" IS
STRONG FOR TICKET

At Wiconisc« Roy Keen, a well
known young attorney, presided. Mr.
Keen said he has been all over the
upper end recently and be predicted
that every Republican on the ticket
will get a big majority north of the
mountains. The people yf . the upiiqr
end, he said, were pleased that tn4y
had at last got what they regard as a
"square deal" with regard to repre
sentation on the ticket, and also liked
the way in which the candidates stick
together and work for each other dur

At Lykens, Dr. John H. who

BUSY SUNDAY FOR
LOCAL TRAINMEN
No Freight Shut Down Is Prob
able Because of Heavy
Traffic
Freight traffic on the Pennsylvanl
Railroad and the Philadelphia jtnd
Reading Railway lines will keep mov
ing to-morrow. This is necessary in'
order to prevent congestions in t-hfl
various freight yards. There is already
a tie-up in eastern yards.
This may bring a rush order to hold
certain freight for a few hours at yart
terminals until there is room at tide
water distribution points. It is said
there is a scarcity of vessels to carry
war shipments and supplies to foreign
ports. At points in New Jersey rail
road yards are crowded to capacity
with freight cars loaded with war
shipments.
The Reading Company reports simi •
lar conditions between Reading. Ai
lentown and Philadelphia. Along thn
main line of the Pennsylvania Rail
road tidewater traffic is awaiting
orders to move. Local officials
claim that a Sunday shut-down would;
not help conditions and freight move
ment will continue.
