SATURDAY EVENING,
! State government who have been
looking'up the suggestion of a cen
tral paying agency of the State gov
ernment which was repeated by Attor
ney General Francis Shunk Brown in
an opinion rendered a few days ngo
say that it would require legislation
and a larger appropriation for the
conduct of the State Treasury before
it could be made effective. Under
present conditions each department
disburses its own funds and runs its
own bank account except for salaries
and some other Items. For years ef
forts have been made to centralize
, this business in the Treasury and have
it made the disbursing office for all
but petty cash. The Treasury is now
handling live times as many checks
as it was at this time last year and
to centralize the business of pay
ments would require quite an addi
tion •to the clerical force and con
siderably more bookkeeping. It would
be up to the next Legislature and as a
new State Treasurer will take charge
next year he can find out from State
Treasurer Robert K. Young what the
.experience has been and the bills
drawn accordingly.
lurnpikc Appeal.—Xotlce lias been
tiled hero that the York and Maryland
Line Turnpike Company had appealed

cision of the Public Service Commis
sion ordering it to place its road in
better condition. Complaint had been
tiled by the Glen Rock Motor Club,
which alleged that the road was not
; properly maintained.
Nominating; Papers.—Emmett Sipe,
J Dunbar township. Fayette county, filed
a petition to be a candidate for the
j House on the Republican ticket in the
i Second Fayette district. John T. Tre
voskis. Turtle Creek, filed a petition to
he candidate for Republican national
i delegate from the Thirtieth district.
Asking Pardon.—Charles Rocigers,
of this county, is appealing to the
t-'tate Board of Pardons for pardon
from a Huntingdon Reformatory sen
tence. He was convicted of felonious
entry last fall.

HARRISBURG SSSfc TELEGRAPH
BOARD FINANCES
ADDED SCHOOLS
War Closed Serbian Schools;
Reopened by Directors at
Cost of $2,500
How the Steelton school board
successfully handled the situation
when the war shut down the Serbian
, Parochial school and succeeded in
financing the additional schools which
it was compelled to open without
levying any additional tax, was
1 brought out at a recent meeting of
1 the board.
After the board had completed Its
budget for the present term and com-
I pleted organization of the teaching
corps, the war cast its influences
across some 4,000 and called all the
the nuns who taught In the Serbian
parochial school back home to care
for their wounded brothers and sweet
hearts in the Red Cross hospitals that
now dot all Europe. Immediately the
several hundred Serbian pupils were
thrown out of school.
In order that they might continue
their education Superintendent L. E.
McGinnes, of the public schools, im
mediately made plans for additional
teachers and rooms in the public
schools. Additional rooms were open
ed in the West Side and in the Foth
ergil! building and additional sup
plies were purchased to run the new
schools throughout the term. It was
up to the board to provide money.
This by careful housekeeping it was
able to do although the .additional
sum required was well over ?2,500,
and the Serbian children are now
again In school.

Why pay Tire Bills for Others
I 1. e., for RECKLESS Drivers
• ♦ ♦
to the American who hates to be "the Goat"!
Tires CAN be Bold on a "BUSINESS" basis, with sufficient
JL profit to both Manufacturer and Dealer, as Goodrich experience
But, they can also be sold on a PREMIUM basis, whereby the "Safe and
Sane" Car-Owner pays for the Speeding Propensities, and Careless Driving, of '
Others who, leaning upon an extravagant Guarantee," knowingly burn up
Tires in half their natural Life and Mileage.
Speed-Maniacs and Careless-Drivers may very PROPERLY pay the Pre
priced Ti™s normalValUe <WhiCh * InsuraMe • preratam >- on fancy-
Because, the Premium they pay may be less than half what other Care
ful Car-Owners indirectly contribute for them, when buying the same brand of
Premium-priced Tires, and using them so reasonably that practically no 4 'adjust
ments" are, in their case, demanded, though paid for in the Premiumed Price.
A MERICANS who want their money's worth,— who dislike to pay
J-X for the Reckless-driving extravagance of Others, —in the price
FACTS ° Wn reS> s^ U P an d take notice of following
The current Goodrich "Fair-List" price on Tires, is based upon what it
costs the largest, and best equipped, Rubber Factory, in America to produce
No "Insurance" Premium added to the NORMAL retail price of
Goodrich Tires, in order to protect the Reckless Driver at the expense of the
Care/wi Driver, through a fancy List Price which' is high enough to absorb
The excess Mileage each Goodrich Tire is reasonably certain to deliver,
when given reasonable care in driving, thus becomes clear "Velvet" to the
Owner of GOODRICH Tires.
Money can't make, and can't buy, better Tires of Fabric construction,
than Goodrich Safety-Tread Tires, as Test will prove.
And, money can't buy the B. F. Goodrich Co. to produce Tires which
would discredit the 269 other lines of Rubber Goods made by the B. F, Goodrich
or which its name stands Sponsor.
✓"COMPARE prices on Goodrich "Fair-List" Tires with present prices
I on any other responsible Tires in the field bearing in mind that NO
"LARGER-SIZED" Tires (type for type and size for size) than
Goodrich Black-Treads, are made in America.
• Then, Test out at least ONE pair of Goodrich black-tread Tires, on their
per-DELIVERED-Mtte cost to you, against any other Tires in the field, at any
price, and, —abide by the Result.
Why (if YOU are not a Reckless Driver) should YOU pay MORE than
the "BUSINESS" price of the Goodrich Tire, for ANY Fabric Tire in the field?
Get a sliver of the new Goodrich "Barefoot" Rubber from your nearest
Goodrich Dealer or Branch.
