OPENING THE NARROWS THE announcement of the State Highway Department that the road between Speeceville and Clark's Ferry is to be widened and a \ ery dangerous grade crossing elimi nated is good news. If the late Com missioner RobeTt J. Cunningham had done no more in the way of Improv ing highways in this vicinity than this he would have left a worthy mon ument to his memory. It was due to his thoroughness that the discov ery was made whereby the railroad was placed in a position where it felt, impelled to give the people the relief for which they prayed. Eventually, it is to be hoped, Har risburg and Millersburg will be con nected by a boulevard traversing, for a large part of the distance, the old canal bed, but the removal of the menace of the Narrows Is a long step in the right direction and will do much to stimulate automobile travel between this city and the thriving communities of the upper end. No better testimonial to the ef ficient and energetic manner in which the officials of the Highway Depart ment are carrying out the program formulated by Mr. Cunningham could be noted than the promptness with which they took up the details of the plan for the upper end highway im provements as outlined by him and closed up the negotiations for the changes contemplated. Notwithstanding the frequent pro tests against the scattering of coal in a large area along Front, Broad and Second streets by those engaged in the river coal industry at the foot of Boas and Broad streets, the unsightly con ditions persist. Despite the Constant sweeping and shoveling of the street sweepers at the expense of the public the coal operators, in defiance of public sentiment, continue to use carts which are In many cases simply sieves. It would seem to bp the duty of the pro per city officials to put a stop to this public nuisance. If most of these oper ators live in Cumberland county, as has been stated, then they are not playing the part of good neighbors. INDIAN LIFE AND HISTORY INDIAN life and history are to be themes for the children's hour at ♦he Harrisburg Public Library Saturday morning. Special stress will be laid on local legends and his torical happenings and relics of the Red Men found hereabouts will be shown. Here is a work well worth while. Local history is always a difficult sub ject. Text books prepared by noted authorities deal with national and world events. The school boy and girl who can tell all about the inhabi tants of South America at the time of the Spanish conquest know little or nothing of the settlement of Harris burg ftnd the surrounding country, or of the people whom the aggressive civilization of the white man elbowed out of the woods and meadows that had been their homes. The story of those early days is full of the charm of romance and the thrill of adven ture. The Public Library manage ment is meeting the difficulty In a way that promises not only to pre sent useful information in an inter esting; manner, but at the same time will stimulate boys and girls to read ing and investigation on their own account. SHIPPING BILL MODIFIED FEARING rejection of the Admin istration shipping bill because of the Government ownership policy, the subcommittee of the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries has greatly modified sections defining: the powers and scope of the proposed shipping board. Revolt of the House majority against the Administration's Philip pine independence bill and the rejec tion of the $16,000,000 Government nitrate plant in the army bill are back of the changes in the shipping bill. The modification consists of a clause which says the Government must sell within five years all Government owned lines. In ease there Is no mar ket for these lines within that period and it is shown that the trade Is not profitable, the lines must be aban doned. The waning power of the Presi dent in Congress 1B shown in this THURSDAY EVENING, action. Now if the committee will only Inject a clause or two making the whole bill unconstitutional its work will be wholly praiseworthy. MOBS AND ARMIES THERE Is a thought for America In the quickly quelled Irish re volt. William Jennings Bryan has told us that for the defense of the United States a million men could be recruited In a day. That Is prob ably true. But a million men are not a million soldiers. The Irish rebels were well armed and they were brave. They fought hard and shot straight. But when they faced the well organized and carefully trained British troopers they melted like chaff In an autumn breeze. They were a mob against an army, and the mob never was that could successfully combat an army. Just so the million men of whom Bryan prates would be helpless before a horde of Eu ropean veterans. COMMUNITY CENTERS IN a recent leaflet the American Civic Association presents a pa per read by Miss/ Margaret Wood row Wilson at the last convention of the association in Washington on the subject of "The Community Center." Miss Wilson, the daughter of the President, is greatly interested in this matter and has given It much study. After discussing the benefits of the more general use of school houses as community centers, she said: Let us make our public school buildings vital centers of our com munities. On all sides now we see sabotage of description. The pur pose of community centers shall be creation Instead of destruction. Instead of death we shall have life. and life in more abundance. In lier discussion of this subject Miss Wilson did not in any way de precate the recreation movement, but developed the thought of a wider use of school buildings. She pointed out how beneficial to any community would be the assembling of the peo ple in a given district from time to time In the school house of that par ticular district. Through these meet ings she declared, would be promoted In more direct ways the life and hap piness of the neighborhood and of the city or town. It is her judg ment that school buildings ought to be centers of social enterprise and co-operation; places where everything shall be considered from the point of view Of its real value —its real value to the community and to the world. As has been indicated in the col umns of this newspaper time after time the enormous expenditure of public funds in school buildings should bring more general results in the welfare of the whole community. Miss "Wilson does not believe that the school houses should become the meeting places of all sorts of parti san and faddist movements, but ought to be the places of assembly of the people for mutual help and the de velopment of the community at large. The Telegraph has urged the larger use of the school buildings of Har risburg for years and the time now seems to be ripe for the development of the community idea. This city has been greatly aided in its progress by community co-operation and as a fea ture of our municipal life it should be further encouraged through a wider use of the property of the people as represented in many fine school houses. ROTAIIj COAL PRICES RETAIL dealers predict big ad vances in coal as a result of the new scale of wages in the hard coal regions. The Philadelphia Even ing ledger's mathematically inclined editor isn't so certain that material increases are necessary, unless Ihe dealers mean to use the wage raise as an excuse for gouging their customers. Says the Ledger: Those men who are saying that the wage increase granted to the anthracite mine workers will be followed by a necessary increase of 50 cents a ton in the price of coal would better do a little figuring. Mr. Warriner, of the Lehigh Coal nnd Navigation Company, says that the wage increase will add from $10,000,00 to Jt2.000.000 a year to the cost of mining, and that at least 30 per cent, of this sum will have to be paid by the consumer. For convenience of computation call it 10 per cent, or $10,000,000 or $l,O/10,000. Pennsylvania produces 51,000,000 long tons of coal in a year. If the people have to pay ' $1,000,000 more for this, the in crease lit the price would amount to not more than a cent and a half a ton. If the people have to pay the total wage increase, the extra cost of coal would be only 12V4 cents a ton. The retailer will have to do a lot of explaining before he can convince the consumer that an increase of 50 cents a ton in the price is fair. Rut the chances are the operator j and the retailer will attempt nothing of the sort. The public has no union back of it to threaten a strike. It must comply with the price decree— or use soft, coal, as some no doubt will do. The climbing price of anthracite is rapidly putting it into the class of prohibitive luxuries. I.IQVOK'S SHARK COLLIER'S WEEKLY quotes the following paragraph from The Iron Trade Review and says H teaches a temperance lesson: It was a hot day, and one of the men. instead of drinking good water or milk to quench his thirst, stole out between "blows of the steel" to KCt a drink at a nearby saloon. Upon returning and taking one of the nandles he could not con trol his end of the ladle steady so tli H t the stream from the bottom could pass directly into the gate • and nil the mold. Instead, it hit the top of the flask and spattered the metal in all directions. One man was killed and two badly Injured. It is a temperance sermon, but it is more than that. It is an Illustration of the manner in which the liquor trade is collecting its profits at the expense of every other kind of busi ness in the land. Doubtless the man who was killed and those injured were all beneficiaries under workmen's compensation laws. Either their employer direct or his insurance company had to foot the bill of thousands of dollars incurred by reason of these few midday drinks. The brewer or the distiller, however, made his profit and got off scot free. Yet there are those who wonder why big business 1s so generally antago nistic to alcoholic indulgence and why so many employers do not hire men known to drink. In all fairness, in a case 11 kf this, why shouldn't the men who made and sold the drinks stand at least, a share of the losses Incurred? Such a regulation might be difficult of enforcement, but certainly it would not be unfair. | TELEORAPH'S PERISCOPE \ —"Keep on kissing," is the recom mendation of a Boston physician: just as if anybody needed such advice. —Because three Democratic senators were "off the job" D.

Colonel Harvey's Version Here only last March we were specu lating calmly and quietly upon the pro spective marriage of a party having principles but no leader to a party having a leader but 110 principles. Our Colonel, of course, was the suitor, not humble perhaps but most considerate, most tender, most ingratiating and wholly unselfish—ln truth, to all seem ing. a veritable John Alden, speaking not for himself at all but for anybody here named Kelly or Miles (not the General) or Standish or whatnot. And then like a holt from the blue came from Trinidad the flashing intimation that Our Hero might be induced to speak for himself if only Prlscilla, too, would be heroic.—North American Re view. The Public Will Pay [New York Sun.] Of one thing the public may be cer tain; the higher pay won by the miners of anthracite coal from their employers ' will be paid by it. The sum of sl2,- j 000.000, which it is estimated will be : added to the income of 178,000 workers I annually through the new wage sched- j ules, will not come from the owners of j the mines. Therefore coal will go up in price, al- ; though it is now almost ruinously ex- j pensive. In this lies a serious danger to the Industry. It is not beyond pos- j slbility that hard coal will become too ' costly to burn. Great progress has al- I ready been made in smoke consuming ' devices, which make soft coal prac- j ticable in communities having ordin- t ances prohibiting the discharge of ! smoke from chimneys: scientific stok- ; ing is a fact; gas is used in ever in- | creasing quantities for cooking and i heating; electric stoves of improved de- 1 sign are coming into use. The market | for high priced anthracite may be con- | siderably narrowed. Meanwhile.by the installation of proper grates, the smaller sizes of coal may be economically burned in kitchen ranges and in heating furnaces. The well plucked householder may turn from the familiar sizes to pea\coal, and warm his family without mortgaging his house.

Mr. Sheaffer enjoys a. wide acquaintance and is known as an en terprising merchant and good citizen. And the People Pay Promptly upon the settlement of the bift street railway strike at Pittsburgh the company issued a full-page state ment. in the newspapers explaining that the total increase of $500,000 in wages meant higher fares; that if it Is to pay the wage scale demanded it will be necessary to provl.le increased fares to partially cover the same, and that action will be taken for such adjust ments of the fare zone as are proper and reasonable. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH IK "PtKKO^CcahXa By (he Kx-Committee man Brumbaugh" campaign committee managers plan to place in every elec tion district in Pennsylvania lists showing the names of candidates fa vored by the Governor's faction so that there will be no mistakes at the polls. In many districts it has been found that the men active in behalf of the Governor had gotten twisted on the candidates and a "directory" will be Issued. The official list of candidates for all offices is being scan ned to see that there are "no ring ers' and. warning has been issued that Dallas Bumbaugh, a retired police man of Pittsburgh, is a candidate for national delegate-at-large and that he should not be confused with the Gov ernor, who is also a candidate for delegate-at-large. The appearance of Bumbaugh. whose name by the way, will appear under that of the Governor, has been blamed by the Brumbaugh head quarters on Senator Penrose and some comments upon employment, of a po litical trick which is held to have originated in the Garden of Eden arc made. Senator Penrose's friends say that his shoulders are broad and that one more thing which he did not know of being blamed on him will not stem the tide. The Brumbaugh peo ple retort that the Penrose men are mixed on the way the tide is going. The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin last night added to the excitement In this extraordinary campaign by de claring: that the mayor of that city, Thomas 13. Smith, who is on the Brumbaugh slate, is not eligible to election as delegate-nt-large. The Bulletin suggests that the mayor, who has been more or less In the limelight, should withdraw. Governor Brumbaugh lias declined to take any notice of the statement made by John W. Frazier, of Phila delphia, to the effect that he could produce the David B. Oliver letter if he wanted to. Senators S. W. Salus. of Philadel phia, yesterday called Representative Stern a liar and exchanged remarks about his political ability, in the pro ceeding to have the Senator declared a nonresident of the ward which he claims to represent. Salus and Stern are well known to many here and the verbal battle was very diverting. Judge Eugene C. Bonniwell yester day made a sharp attack on A. Mitch ell Palmer, his old rival in Demo cratic affairs. The judge is a can didate for the Senatorial nomination against the Palmer slate and he hands the bosses the usual ante-primary words dressed up with adjectives. Philadelphia city politics are get ting to the boiling point in both par ties and the rest of the State will be promised some interesting things next week. The anti-Penrose men and Demo crats are having a fine time to-day over the announcement from Phila delphia that the federal government proposes to probe the Penrose ac count for 1914, taking up the Penn sylvania Protective Union first. E. Dowery Humes, Democratic district at torney, is said to be the mover. The Union's accounts have furnished much material for Democrats. Speaker Ambler's arrest of George D. Porter yesterday will offer a chance for a test of the law about furnish ing false material to newspapers. The preliminary hearing is to-day. Allegheny Democrats have gotten into a fight almost as bitter as that among the Republicans in Philadel phia. The Philadelphia Inquirer to-day editorially calls on Mayor Smith to stop factional politics and to adhere to his declarations. —Chester county records are said to show that Speaker Ambler's bridge building firm was lowest in the dis puted contract. —Riegelsville has been incorporated as a borough. —The mayor and councilmen of Pottsvllle have been cited into court on charge of maintaining a nuisance. —The Pittsburgh Dispatch quotes Senator Oliver as making this state ment regarding the Oliver check tran saction: "Governor Brumbaugh in his authorized statement said that John 11. Rilling bad) called upon me In my office here, that I had locked the door and exhibited photographic copies of the check and the correspondence. Now, the facts are just as they were pre sented by me to the public at the time. The check was never photographed un til after it had been deposited by Gov ernor Brumbaugh, paid by the bank, canceled and returned to David B. Oli ver. As to the other charges. Mr. Rilling talked with me a few days ago and stated that he never told the Gov ernor that I had locked the door of my office during our interview, and ,that I did not exhibit photographs of the check and papers. The Governor's memory concerning- Mr. Rilling's report of our meeting must have been very inaccurate. As a matter of fact, I did not know there was a lock on the door of my office, and I could not have shown Mr. Rilling photographs of the papers because our interview took place on March 16. and the photo graphs were not made until March 18." Passing of Harper's Harper's Weekly, through which Curtis and Nast and Colonel Har vey were wont in the years gone to fire their political broadsides, is dead, with Norman Hapgood play ing the role of sexton and a few old-fashioned readers who stuck to it through thick and thin as the chief mourners. When Colonel Harvey turned Harper's Weekly over to its new management he freely admitted he did so because it was losing money. Hapgood and his associates did not buy a pig in a poke. They knew and took the risk, staking their chances of success on plenty of "punch" in its editorial policy and freakish make-up. The reasons for their failure are doubtless many and varied, but it is likely that they lay without the con trol of the owners quite as much as within. Our newspapers have pro gressed so rapidly in recent years that they now earn' from day to day news and pictures that formerly could be published only by weekly journals. Harper's was left without any real mission-—so it simply dropped out and was absorbed by the Independent, a publication so distinctive thai it has nothing to fear from dally competi tion.

BANG— —Unci linrilljr flninheil planting wrd when lie nplril n chicken In hla Harden, —From Pbllaie woman on the farm, and for bird lovers in general, this is an attractive sideline. While a few in dividuals in all parts of the country are engaged in raising canaries, the supply thus produced is so much smaller than the demand that hun dreds of thousands of birds have been imported annually, so that there is no doubt as to the existence of a large permanent market for them. They are more robust than turkeys, which after weeks of careful attention, may become infected and the whole brood die at once; and the expense of their upkeep is not so great. A pair of birds, a breeding cage and a small outlay for food, under ordinary con ditions. will yield at least a dozen selling: birds In a single year. The greatest factor in favor of bird raising, however, is the little time re quired for the actual work connected with it, which makes it a practicable Gains By France From the National Geographic Society. Roughly measured, the territory re gained from the Germans in France exceeds 2,500 square miles, or con siderably more than the area of the state of Delaware. Its population before the war was in the neighbor hood of half a million. Within.the redeemed area are some of the most interesting places in France, notably Rheims, the place of coronation for most of the kings of France since the beginning of the Capetian dynasty. The most famous j ceremony of this character to take place here was the anointing of i Charles VII, after Joan of Arc had i driven the English from before the city walls. It was here, too, that Clovis was baptized on Christmas day, !in 496. Before the devastation wrought by the present war the great I llheims cathedral was considered by j many critics of architecture the most I beautiful structure produced during the middle ages. Amiens, with a population of ninety thousand before the war, is next in importance among the salvaged cities. Its cathedral, one of the most im posing piles of Thirteenth Century architecture in Europe, was scarcely less famous than the one at ,Rheims. It was In this city that Peter, the Her mit, the great preacher of the First Crusade, was born. Since the war the city's noted woolen, silk, cash mere and velvet manufactories have suffered greatly. Arras, also reclaimed, was noted for its woolen manufactures before the war. In medieval days its tapestry hangings were so famous .that the name of the city was adopted as a common noun for draperies In Eng land. Robespierre, the revolution ist, was born in Arras.

The small boy who had fixed the tin can in its place stopped laughing when a stern voice came to his ears, "William!" It was his father who spoke. "Did you tie that tin can to the poor dog's tail?" Willie did some' rapid thinking. Then he replied innocently: "Yes, father, I did. I'm trying to do one kind act every day, and that dog is always chasing cats, so I tied the tin can to its tail so that It would make a noise and warn the poor lit tle cats."

In Germany many of the peasants have canary rooms, and shoemakers, tailors and other trades men often double their incomes by breeding the birds. Few, if any, of the imported birds are raised by per sons who give their entire time to it. The bird-breeder usually begins upon a small scale, confining his birds in cages and gradually Increasing his equipment in proportion to his suc cess. One pair of birds averages from three to five broods a year, but this number is greatly increased by fol lowing the German method of mating three females with every male. In its wild state, the canary pairs the same as other birds, often breaking the muscles of its small throat in attract ing the attention of some coquettish female, but under domestication it has become a polygamous fowl, the male accepting the harem bestowed upon him by the breeder, although displaying a distinct preference for the female with which he is first mated. The canary room, found in so many pleasant homes in Germany, is the ideal breeding equipment. It may be an unfinished room in the attic, or an unused pantry of some sort, but it must have plenty of light and fresh air. not too cold in winter and not too hot in summer. One woman, who clears several hundred dollars a year on her canaries, breeds them in a space about six by eight feet at the end of her hall, enclosed by wire [Continued on Page 12] Not a Disease, a Gift "Some un sick at yo' house.

Planting Trees This is the time for planting, and the following suggestions on how to plant are of value: 1. Plant when frost is out of the ground. 2. Keep the roots well protected from the minute the tree leaves the wagon or trench to me minute it is planted. Do not take more plants from the wagon than is absolutely necessary. 3. Cut all broken roots and cover wounds with coal tar. •t. Cut back the branches, but do not remove them entirely unless they interfere or are too thick. With some trees like the sycamore, oak or pop lar, you can cut back more than with 'he others. Do not cut the leader, and do not cut evergreens. 5. Let only good soil come in close contact with the roots, and have the good soil well packed around the roots; work it in with the fingers and stamp on it. Place the poor soil only on top. 6. See"that the tree is planted up right and firm. 7. Plant the tree no deeper than it stood in the nursery. 8. Water the tree "only after good soil has been put around its roots and the hole tilled.
