Why Your
Coal Bills
Will Be Higher
The coal miners are now working under a new
agreement which gives them more pay and shorter
working hours.
Increased wages and an eight-hour day, instead
of nine hours, necessarily adds to the cost of pro
ducing coal.
The new Compensation Insurance Act and the
big advance in the cost of mining supplies are two
large factors in the making of the higher prices.
But You May
Save 30c Per Ton
by engaging your supply now. The present
prices are just 30c per ton lower than will be
charged in the Fall.
Furthermore coal shipped in summer is usually
much better prepared than winter shipments.

NO FINANCES TO
IMPROVE SLOPES?
i
Lack of Funds May Prevent
Continuance of Plan to Treat
River Embankment
Failure of the city commissioners to'
get together on a satisfactory plan
to raise sufficient funds to finance the
proposed permanent improvement
along the river slopes between "Hard
scrabble" and Maclay street, may pre
vent the continuance of that work
this yeaf.
The plans have been prepared and
are ready for the Water Supply Com
mission's approval. And what is lack
ing is the money. Park Commissioner
E. Z. Gross had hoped to get about
#2,100 of the surplus from the city
audit fund. Neither Commissioners
W H. Lynch nor W. L. Gorgas who
inspected the river front the other day
with Mr. Gross, seemed entirely favor
able to this plan. Mr. Lynch said to-1
day that he doesn't see where the
I money is to come from but that he
can't discuss the matter definitely as
yet until he has taken up the question
with Commissioner Bowman. The lat
ter has been 111 for a few days.
The commissioners last Friday ,were
'tpken on a tour over the new park
way road north of Derry street, but It ,
is likely that the members of the city
planning commission and the ad
visory park board will be taken over
the road on an inspection trip within
a few days. The roadway. It Is ex
pected will not be formally opened
for traffic until after the Inspection,
probably not before July 1.

In this Matter
of Health
one is either with the win

It's largely a question of
right eating—right food. For
sound health one must cut
out rich, indigestible foods
and choose those that are
known to contain the ele
ments that build sturdy
bodies and keen brains.
Grape - Nuts
is a wonderfully balanced
food, made from whole
wheat and barley. It con
tains all the nutriment of the
grain, including the mineral
phosphates, indispensable in
Nature's plan for body and
brain rebuilding.
Grape-Nuts is a concen
trated food, easy to digest.
It is economical, has de
licious flavor, comes ready

HARRJSBURG TELEGRAPH
ROTARY CLUB IN
PATRIOTIC MOOD
Send Greetings to Kemper and
Shumburger; Hear Addresses
bv Visitors
Patriotic feeling ran riot at the
noonday luncheon of the Harrisburg
Rotary Club at the Columbus Hotel
to-day. The club has two of its mem
bers at Mt. Gretna with the troops—
Captain James B. Kemper, of the
United States Army, chief mustering
officer, and Sergeant Major John C.
Shumberger, of the Governor's staff,
who is on special duty at headquar
ters.
The Rotarians heard with en
thusiasm that the lleutenant-colonecy
of the Eighth Regiment has been ten
dered to Captain Kemper and that he
will accept if the government permits,
which it is expected to do. Kemper
is one of the most popular members
of the Rotary Club. He is a regular
army man with a Philippine and
Cuban service record and was one of
the first men ordered to the Mexican
border when the troops first went.
Since then he has been assigned to
duty, putting the National Guard of
Pennsylvania into shape for regular
service. He is one of the youngest
captains in the service and is a nephew
of former Governor Kemper, of Vir
ginia. If he becomes lieutenant
colonel of the Eighth he will go back
to the regular army after the Mexican
trouble.
The Rotarians sent the following
telegram to Captain Kemper and a
somewhat similar message to Sergeant
Major Shumberger:
Captain Jnmra B. Kemper,
Chief Muatcring Officer. V. S. A„
Camp Brumbaugh, Mt. CSretna,
Pa.

THE II IHHISBCRG HOTARV Cl.l B.
The club sang patriotic songs and
little American f!ag lapel decorations
were distributed. E. J. Stackpole,
pesident of The Telegraph Printing
Company, and James W. Kellogg,
chief chemist for the State Agricul
tural Department, made addresess.
S. S. Rutherford was chairman of the
meeting.
Mr. Kellogg spote of the good work
Pennsylvania is doing along the lines
of regulating the quality of paints,
feedstuffs and fertilizers used here and
said that In this respect the State Is
among the leaders.
Mr. Stackpole spoke at the request
of President Fry. reviewing his recent
visit to Holyoke. Mass.. where he ad
dressed the Chamber of Commerce
and Women's Municipal League at
noon and the Holyoke Rotary Club in
the evening. After giving some ac
count of that meeting, he dwelt at
some length upon the Mexican situa
tion, scoring heavily the mistakes the
government has made below the Rio
Grande and closing with the declara
tion that whatever there had been of
error It was now the duty of all good
citizens to stand ready to serve as best
they can and predicting that Karrls
btirg will not be found lacking.
Captain Lumb, of the State Police,
said so many young men are respond
ing to the colors that the regular army
recruiting station here can scarcely
handle them. John S. Musser reported
on a visit he made last week to the
Wilkes-Barre Rotary Club.
