London. Nov. 24, 11.49 a. ill. —Con-
tradictory claims to victory in the
Balkans leave the present situation in
doubt, but it is evident the advance
of the Austro-German armies and
their Bulgarian allies is not so rapid
as earlier reports indicated. Appar
ently heavy fighting is under way in
'the section of the country where the
[Teutonic invaders are attempting to
i form a junction with the Bulgarians.
1 The fate of Monastir is still in the
(balance. Reports emanating from
Athens state that the Bulgarians, hav
! ing regard for Greek susceptibilities,
i are waiting for the Germans to come
j up iuid occupy the city.
I In the entente capitals renewed con
| fidenco is professed that Greece is
(moving toward complete agreement
i with the wishes of the allies. Berlin
has revived the report that Russia is
contemplating a great campaign in the
Balkans, for which a large army has
been gathered at Odessa. The Ger
mans who have given publicity to this
report, do not seem at all sure Ru
mania will refuse permission to this
army to cross her territory.
Petrograd reports a slight "advance
along the Styr river, with sharp checks
or the Germans and Austrians on both
'the northern and southern portions of

says there is nothing worthy of report
along this line. Nevertheless there Is
I apprehension in Vienna and Berlin of
the result of the expected Russian of
fensive in the extreme southeast.

day. It will he featured by a discus

though other questions on which the
President looks to Congress for action
will he taken up. These include a

self-government for the Filipinos and
rural credits.
The message will declare that the

therefore, must be ready to defend its
right to independent and unmolested

a continental army of 400,000 men
will be strongly supported.
The President will, as he did last
year, again declare that it is proper
for young men to learn to be soldiers
and express the belief that plans sub
mitted by the army general staff call
for a standing force larger than the
country wants. In referring to tho
navy plans, the President will declare
'that it is as necessary to provide mu

said he.
"The women of to-day ought to feel
that same consecration of spirit that
brought their mothers to the altar of
their country to offer up their sons on
the altar of patriotism," he continued,
"and I believe they do feel so. I have
no patience with the thought that we
do not raise our boys to be soldiers.'"
Where the People stand
There are three divisions of people
with regard to preparedness, the
speaker said. One he classed as the
pacificists, and these he subdivided as
"peace at any price" men and men
who desire peace with honor. Nearly
everybody he said could claim rela
tionship with this second subdivision.
Then,he continued.there are those who
favor reasonable prepnredness, and
the third and largest body of people
are those who have given little thought
to the matter. It was for the purpose
of stirring those to action he said,
that he is now discussing wherever
the opportunity is afforded, the doc
trine of being prepared, and he con
tinued. "I propose to continue to dis
cuss my views along this line, even at
the cost of my seat in the Senate, for
without a country there would be no
Senate."
Senator Chamberlain said he saw
the peril of warfare against the United
States on all sides, especially in view
of the country's extensive insular in
terests. and the only safeguard in
sight,he said,is an army and navy large
enough to give any power pause for
that that may be tempted to attack.
Denounces I tomb Plotters
Senator Chamberlain was vigorous
in his denunciation ©f the foreigners
on American shores who are plotting
against American lives and property
and said they ought to be either de
ported or imprisoned. America is no
longer a melting pot. he said, and he
saw danger within from the hyphen
ated American as well as from envious
powers without.
Senator Chamberlain said he felt
at home in Harrisburg and claimed
relationship on the ground that his
great-grandfather had married a
member of the Harris family which
settled in this city. President J. Wil
liam Bownuin presided at the lunch
eon and among the guests were Con
gressman Aaron S. Kreider and Secre
tary of Internal Affairs Henry Houck.
Senator Chamberlain's address on
preparedness to-day was the fourth
speech on that subject delivered by na
tional authorities to the members of
the Harnshurg Chamber of Com
merce. The first address was by Hud
son Maxim, the noted inventor and
member of Secretary Daniels Ad
visory Board. The second one was by
John Temple Graves, the editor of
the Xew York American, and the third
was delivered at the annual meeting
by Captain Richard Stockton, Jr.
Because of the noliday business now
at hand it is not expected that the
Chamber w?H have a luncheon meet
ing until after Christinas.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
Taft Criticises Present
System of Education
as Being Inefficient
3y Asiociaftd Prrss
Rochester, N. Y., Nov. 24. The
conversion of the United States
Bureau of Education into a national
university for school teachers, was
advocated to-day by former President
William H. faft. In an address be
fore the New York State Teachers'
Association.
Mr. Taft criticised the present sys
tem of education in the United States
as helng In many instances inefficient
and superficial, and suggested that
the Federal government might,
through a system of Inspection and
criticism, aid the States in bringing
about higher standards, both in re
spect to teachers and met.iods.
Explaining his scheme for co-opera
tion of the Federal and State author-1
itles. Mr. Taft said:
"Through its bureau of education
the national government might help
to promote State education by otter
ing machinery to the people of a mu
nicipality, of a county, or of a State,
by which they might, if they choose,
have the schools they pay for In
vestigated and examined and the
value of tile education given tested
by a survey or report of officers of
the United States Bureau of Educa
tion. Such officers would be trained
experts."
Referring to his plan for making
the Bureau of Education a national
university for teachers. Mr. Taft
said:
"By searching and through teach,
ers' examination the federal certifi
cates would acquire a high value for
their holders and the professional
qualifications for teaching would be
generally improved."

Parents Refuse to Let
Doctor Operate to Save
Life of Defective Baby |
N«w York. Nov. 24.—A case re
sembling that of the Bollinger baby
of Chicago developed hero to-day
when a New York physician con
fronted the question whether the life
of a defective baby should be saved
by a surgical operation, despite the
wishes of the parents.
The baby, a girl, was born last
niiiht. Mentally the child appears to
bo normal, but is paralyzed below the
WRlst, has club feet, distorted knee
joints, and a spinal ailment which,
physicians say, will prove fatal If an
operation Is not soon performed.
Dr. Julius Goldsmith, the attending
physician, notified the parents that
tnn child's life could be saved only by
n prompt operation. He said after
ward:
"The parents absolutely refuse per
mission for the necessary operation. I
could probably save the child's life,
although it would always remain help
lessly crippled. There is no action
that I can take without the permis
sion of the parents."
The father of the defective baby
raid: "I believe the Chicago physi
cian was right. For the sake of hu
manity. I would rather see this child
die now than have to live seven or
eight years in misery and suffering.
Even though the operation was per
formed, they say, it would always be
pnrnhzed below the waist, it woul.l
always be a cripple and a charge In
its parents and society. It is a hard
thii.g to say but It would be better
deod."
SUGGESTS COUNTY SHOULD PAY
LANCASTER TOLL ROADS
Highway Commissioner Cunning
ham to-day suggested to a delegation
of Lancaster county automobile own
ers and representatives of the Lancas
ter Automobile Club, who came to see
him about freeing that county of toll
roads, that the county should buy
them, in which event the State would
maintain them. The commissioner
promised the fullest co-operation in
freeing the roads, but pointed out that
the State had a small appropriation for
the purpose and that there were many
demands. He suggested that the coun
ty commissioners inaugurate a policy
of buying the roads for the county.
In the delegation were A. B. Meyers,
of Columbia; J. G. Forney. C. M. Reil-
Ung. Sheriff A. B. Ij&ndis, County
Commissioner-elect D. F. Magee, J. G.
P. Raub and others.

actor, 'snng a touching song in the
fourth act of the play, "War Pic
tures." at the Orpheum last night the
audience responded with a heavy
shower of coins for the war sufferers
in Europe. Th#' song impressed the
hearers so much that after a steadv
rain of money it was found that more
than S6O had been contributed. The
money will be sent to the American
Jewish Relief Committee at New York
to be used for the needy people in the
war zones.

nate when he acted as he did?" Mr.
Lynch asked.
"Well, he said to me when I put this
matter up to him," replied the Mayor,
"that he didn't mean any harm and
that it would not occur again. But :
wouldn't It be natural for a man to !
say he was sorryHe didn't even say
he was sorry."
"Wasn't his statement that he meant,
no harm and that a s imllar act
wouldn't occur again a sufficient
apology?" nsked Mr. Taylor.
Mayor Royal still contended, how
ever. that Acting Chief Thompson
dldnt express his sorrow at the oc- !
currence. The Mayor furthermore In- |
slsted that Council wasn't acting
legally in Imposing a fine.
The absurdity of .Mayor Royal's'
statement that the prisoner In ques-1
tSon had been released at the behest I
o' "politicians" was flouted by Messrs. '
Taylor and Lynch who gravely pointed I
out to the mayor that even If the full j
term had been served, the man would
have easily been out of jail before
election.
Didn't Know For Sure
"Well, I don't know that politicians
did urge his release." said the mayor.
"It's only a surmise as to why they
wanted him out."
By ordinances offered by Mr. Lynch
the funds received from the Harris-1
burg Railways Company for repairs
to State and Paxton street bridges
were turned into the general funds of
the streets department. Mr. Taylor!
n.sked for an appropriation of sl,-1
324.20 be provided for paving and l
grading on streets abutting on park l
and playground property.
Covnctl granted the Rotary club the j
use of the Council chamber Friday to
meet on the new hotel project and it 1
also permitted Fire Commissioner!
Taylor to send two pieces of motor!
apparatus to Fnola to-morrow.
Mayor Royal offered an ordinance |
prohibiting children under twelve
years of age to sell newspapers in the
streets and children, male .or female I
to work at places of business such as j
news stands, bootblack stands, etc. |
This he did at the instance of the at.-
tornej general, in accordance with
the provisions of the new Child Labor
Law.
Brown street was vacated by a vote
of 3 to 2, Messrs. Royal und\Gorgas
declining to vote for the ordinance
because they said the city might be
liable for damage.
Jitney Regulation Not In
1 larrlsburg's much talked of new
jitney regulation ordinance was not
offered in Council this afternoon and
it is questionable whether it will be
introduced next week. Some of the
councllmen nave not looked over it
at all.
The ordinance, among other things,
provides: A $5,000 bond for each jit
ney; that the applicant of a jitney bus
must apply to the department of pub
lic affairs for a license; that the dis

Sparkling and vivacious—merry
bright, alert—a good, clear skin and
a natural, rosy, healthy complexion
are assured only by pure blood. II
only every man and woman could be
induced to adopt the morning inside
bath, what a gratifying change would
take place. Instead of the thousand?
of sickly, anaemic-looking men, wo
men and girls, with pasty or muddy
complexions; instead of the multi
tudes of "nerve wrecks," "rundowns.''
"brain fags" and pessimists we should
see a virile, optimistic throng of rosy
cheeked people everywhere.
An inside bath is had by drinking
each morning, before breakfast, a
glass of real liot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate In it
to wash from the stomach, liver, kid
neys and ten yards of bowels the pre
vious day's indigestible waste, sour
fermentations and poisons. thus
cleansing, sweetening and freshening
the entire alimentary canal before put
ting more food into the stomach.
Those subject to sic k headache, bll.
iousness, nasty breath, rheumatism,
colds: and particularly those who
have a pallid, sallow complexion and
who are constipated very often, are
urged to obtain a quarter pound of
limestone phosphate at the drug store
which will cost but a trifle, but Is suffi
cient to demonstrate the quick and
markahle change In both health and
appearance, awaiting those who prac
tice internal sanitation. We must re
member that inside cleanliness Is more
important than outside, because the
skin does not absorb impurities to con
taminate the blood while the pores in
the thirty feet of bowels do. —Adver-
