est the report of the men who visited
the various fairs throughout the State
to see If they were run "wide open"
and whether agriculture or amuse
ments were given prominence. Under
the law the State can refuse to pay
appropriations to fairs which do not

Shall Our Boys and Girls Have a
I Square Deal?
i
j To Each Voter of Harrisburg:
r
j Are you actually interested in the future usefulness to themselves and
| the country of your own boys and girls?
i Are you willing to help provide them with the better opportunities for
obtaining the technical and scholastic education which will best fit them for
success?
Will you heed the unanimous statements of national experts, of the State
authorities, of your own school superintendent, of your own School Board, of a
representative committee of your own business men, in regard to the present
almost desperate need for relief from congestion in Harrisburg's High Schools
—YOUR High Schools?
I hese are the questions for voters to answer to-morrow "Yes" or '"No" as they consider the proposed loan
for school extension.
There is no lack of information as to the details of this school congestion. The High School pupils who
paraded in the rain on Saturday know they are deprived of full time and a "square deal". The School Board has
given the public full information upon the situation.
To have the boys and girls of Harrisburg who come to high school age
< forced to study in unpleasant, unsuitable, inconvenient, unwholesome sur
roundings, on part time, is unfair, dangerous and intolerable.
P ro P by le School Board, and heartily endorsed hv the Citizens' Committee appointed by the
Chamber ot Commerce, would provide, at the least practicable cost for the legally-required fireproof buildings in
proper surroundings, such facilities as would relieve the congestion in the High School. At the same time the
proposition would establish a new and very important adjunct to better education in Harrisburg— a system of
Junior High Schools.
further, this action would automatically provide against the impending congestion of all the grade schools.
There are now no available rooms on the "Hill" to take care of the 1917 increase in pupils.
1 he proposed loan simply places at the disposal of the School Board, under the most economical financial con
ditions for the taxpayers, a sum within which it is believed to be possible to promptly remedy the existing illegal,
outrageous and improper conditions. No other plan which is based on the actual conditions, or on either knowl
edged or experience, has been offered as a substitute.
Harrisburg has prospered mightily in the past fourteen years through the wise expenditure of money voted
in the loans of 1902, 19Cb, 1910 and 1914. All these expenditures have been upon the best obtainable expert advice.
I he pioposed High School Loan is of the same nature, and it is to keep in line with the advance of
that voters are now asked to favor this loan by voting "Yes" to-morrow.
The responsibility is with the voters of Harrisburg. Neglect, apathy, care
lessness, indifference, may mean the defeat of the loan.
1 hat would put upon the School Board the alternative either of still further reducing the hours of instruction
gn cn to pupils until it became actually necessary to refuse further admissions to the schools or of placing •••••on
the taxpayers the heavy burden of double taxation in order that the necessary facilities for relief might be o- >
vided.
If the loan is authorized, there is little likelihood of any serious increase I
in the taxes, and no necessity whatever for increase in rents.
r J he C !V? 0 *I' o^ as arranged for the continued help and co-operation of the Citizens Committee, consisting
of Messrs W. M. Dona dson, William Jennings, Arthur D. Bacon, Francis J. Hall and George A. Shreiner, to
advise with it through the entire program of selecting sites and architects, approving plans, and placing contracts
or the erection of the schools required. The sort of co-operation, therefore, which has been efficient previously in
the spending r.f public money, is thus assured. •

O. HENRY AS A DRUG CLERK
O. Henry's ,Ave years, in his uncle's
drug store meant much to him as a
cartoonist. His feeling: for the ludi

in speech, tone, appearance, conduct,
or character responded instantly to
the appeal made by the drug store
constituency. This store was the ren
dezvous of all classes, though the
rear room was reserved for the more
elect. The two rooms constituted, in
fact, the social, political, and anec

pataronized the drug store. It was als
a sort of physical confessional. The
man who would expend only a few
words in purchasing a ham or a hat
would talk half an hour of his aches
and ills or those of his family before
buying twenty-five cent's worth of
pills or a ten-cent bottle of liniment.
When the ham or the hat was paid
for and taken away there was usually
an end of it. Not so with the pills op
the liniment. The patient usually
came back to continue his personal
or family history and to add a sketch
of the character and conduct of the
pills or liniment. All this was grist
to O. Henry's mill. "The World's
