CAPITOL PARK EXTENSION IT is expected that Governor Brum baugh, Auditor General Powell and State Treasurer Young, compris ing the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings, will have a conference to-morrow with Arnold W. Brunner,! the distinguished designer and plan ner wfio will represent the State In | planning for the permanent treatment J of the Capitol Park zone. Warren H. i Manning will represent the city's in-1 teres ta. Governor Brumbaugh will present to the Legislature the results of this study of an important problem ami! there is little doubt that definite and ; Bnal steps will be taken at the ap proaching session to transform the l old and new sections of the park so | that the environment of the Capitol | will be In harmony with the dignity i and beauty of that great structure. Fortunately for the Commonwealth, j the present Board of Public Grounds j and Buildings is entirely familiar with j all the steps which have been taken ] to enlarge the Capitol grounds. These ! officials are performing an important duty when they arrange for the final and definite treatment of the whole park zone. This embraces the widen ing of the streets abutting on the property and the grading of the land. Mr. Brunner and Mr. Manning a~e j both more or less familiar with the i whole proposition and ought to be ' able In a comparatively short time to , Bubmit a plan which will be satisfac-1 tory to the Commonwealth and the city. Those officials who are so indifferent to the rlprapping of the river slope will not be so indifferent to the rapping of the voters, which always follows neglect. It is absurd to insist that the protection of the river embankment should be postponed until next Spring after the ice and floods of the coming winter shall hare caused still greater damage. If the riprapping is to be done, it should be done now. It ought to have been done months ago. THE FORT HUNTER MEMORIAI. EVERY citizen of Harrlsburg will •be interested in the dedication I Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock j of the historical marker at Fort Hunt-' er. The unveiling of this official stone | will be another step in the intelligent I marking of the steps which Indicate the development of a great Common wealth. Fort Hunter was one of the Impor tant outposts of civilization and its history Is an Interesting chapter of the opening up of the Susquehanna valley to the hardy pioneers who blaz ed the way for those who have carried forward the torch of a better civiliza tion. State Librarian Montgomery who is also curator of the Pennsylvania His torical Commission, and those associ ated with him, have earned the appre ciation of the people of the State for the very important work in which they are engaged. Harrisburg should be present to-morrow at Fort Hunter in large numbers and we trust that the unveiling of this marker will be the occasion of a great outpouring of all who are interested in the development of the State from the earliest days. When the State placed the Harris marker In the park at Front and Washington streets, the occasion was allowed to pass without proper pub lic attention, but there will be no ex cuse should the Fort Hunter unveiling be likewise without public apprecia tion. It Is noticeable that the troops are returning in better cars than those which carried them to the border, but that is largely because so few of them are coming home, Christmas on the border isn't a bright outlook. THE WEST SHORE LOAN r' i a fine thing that, notwithstand ing the pullback attitude of West Falrvlew and the upper end of East Pennsboro township, Lemoyne, Camp Hill and Wormleysburg will still be able to concentrate on a central high school. The passage of the loan project by these districts is a splendid demon stration of town spirit and public en tsrprlse and It is altogether to the credit of the lower precinct of East WiiUiNlibUAi LViiNlriu, 1 ' RAJKHJBJbvIiO mV rFBLBQIULRI i • Pennsboro ' township, which should now make a more strenuous effort than ever to sever Its connections with its less enterprising neighbors and to join with Camp Hill borough, that it should have given the loan an over whelming majority. The West Shore towns which adopted the loan not only have done their duty by their boys and girls, but they have taken a long step toward bringing the various communities which make up the district Into a har monious whole, and It has laid the foundation for a great and populous city on the west bank of the Susque hanna opposite Harrlsburg that some day may become a part of the Capital City itself. But this school vote Is merely a step in the right direction. The people of Lemoyne, Camp HIU ana Wormleysburg have found that their Interests are largely identical. Who shall say to what lengths this community co-operation may go In the future? Why is it that most men turn to the right when you direct them to the left? HIGH SCHOOL VICTORY ! T TARRISBURG, by adopting the -*■ high school loan Involving an expenditure of $1,250,000, has again demonstrated its belief in itself and its confidence In Its own future. With an almost unbroken endorse ' ment of Improvement projects to Its credit the city has determined that Its schools shall not be secondary to the various phases of municipal de velopment to which It has devoted so much attention in recent years. This is as It should be. School fa cilities on a par with the public Im provements that have made the city famous will do nfuch to draw new ; residents to Harrlsburg, Just as an overcrowded high school has kept j many away from the city. ! All over the land, cities were watch -1 lng Harrisburg to see whether or not we still had faith In doing big public J tasks in a big way. That we have | decided to keep at the head of the | municipal procession will do much for us In the eyes of sister cities that have ! learned to look upon Harrisburg as public spirited and patriotic. Beside, we owe this thing to our J children. They have the right to de- j mand of us the very best educational; facilities we can give them, and it is I proper that we should rejoice that the voters have recognized this and are I ready to shoulder the burden of ad- I dltlonal debt in order to build and equip the much-needed buildings. THE NECESSITY OF SAVING THE average total family income, including women and children, is between S7OO and SSOO a year; in the United States, according to 1 statistics given out by the American Society for Thrift. Between 1900 and 1914 the average increase in tho re tall prices of food was about sixty per cent., while wages Increased a little less than thirty per cent. No matter what may be the cause of this con dition, the moral Is plain: The aver age American of the future must be thrifty. Our population is increasing at the rate of 4,433 a day. Statisticians estimate that within a few years this increase will reach 10,000 a day. There I will then be even greater cause for thrift. A movement is on foot In the Na tional Education Association, the offi cial organization of school teachers of America, for devising plans of teach- 1 ing it in our schools. This means be ginning at the foundation and the re sults on the happine.-oOtu* Lk I txxc § By (he Ei-OommittmßWi |1 Pennsylvania not only swung back Into Its place as banner Republican commonwealth yesterday, but it re tained Republicans in charge of the financial end of the state government, maintained its strength in Congress and clinched Republican control of the Legislature. Four have been added to the thirty-eight Republican senators of the last session and It is predicted that the Republicans in the House will run over 150. Richard J. Baldwin, of Delaware, will be a candidate for Speaker and James F. Woodward, of McKeesport, will be back again as chairman of the appropriations committee. Among the ether Republicans bitterly assailed who won was Robert P. Habgood, of McKean. Returns from two-thirds of the dis tricts in the state show a plurality for the Republican national ticket of 169.76S and Republican leaders claim that complete figures will Increase this lead to nearly a quarter of a million votes. The Republicans also elected Philander C Knox to the United States Senate and their candidates for State Treasurer and Auditor General by sub stantial pluralities. Judge Emory A. Walling, running on a nonpartisan ticket, was elected to the State Su preme Court. Returns indicate that the Repub licans elected twenty-nine congressmen and the Democrats four, with three districts in doubt. The Republican •state committee claims the election In two of the districts which have not filed complete returns. The Democrats pained a congressman in the Twentieth district (Adams-York), where A. R. Brodbeck was elected over S. K. McCall, his Republican opponent, and lost one in the Eleventh (Luzerne), where T. W. Templeton defeated Con gressman J. J. Casey, according to the latest figures. The doubtful districts are Blair-Bedford-Cambria, Somerset, Fayette, Greene and Erie, Crawford districts. Among the notable fights won yes terday by the Republicans was in the Thirtieth district, where Congressman W. H. Coleman was re-elected over M. Clyde Kelly. The Socialists polled less than half as largo a vote in Philadelphia as they did four years ago, while the Pro hibitionists had nearly twice as many, Benson receiving 4,526 while Haniy received 1,133. Republicans have increased their strength in the Pennsylvania State Senate and lato returns show that four will be added to the thirty-eight of the last session. But one Democratic senator, G. W. Sassanian, Berks, seems to have been elected. Ex-Senator Frank E. Raldwin will succeed Robert M. Hilton in the Twenty-fifth district; F. H. Barker de feated Senator 11. A. Tompkins in the Thirty-fifth, and David Martin de feated Senator Richard V. Farley In the Fiftieth while T. Larry Eyre won out in a contest for the seat held since' 191S by John W. Gyger, fusion, from the Nineteenth. Senator W. C. Sprou.l, oldest senator ' In r>oint of service, was among those 1i e-elected yesterday, j Twenty-five senators were elected, r. similar number holding over. Republicans won a large proportion [of the House of Representatives as the ; result of the election of 20" members j tor two-year terms yesterday. Chairman James F. x Woodward, of the last House appropriations com , nilttee, and a score of other committee ! chairmen were re-elected and late re turns showed that James H. Maurer, the Socialist member from Reading. Is leading for re-election. Representa tive John M. Flynn, Elk, oldest Demo cratic member in point of service, and Representative Fred C. Ehrhardt, Lackawanna, oldest Republican mem i Uer. were both re-elected with mem bers of the last House from Alle gheny, Rucks. Berks. Chester, Lan caster, Delaware. Lehigh, Blair, Tioga, Philadelphia and Fayette counties. The Republicans had 164 and the Democrats 41 In the last House, Wash- In gtonians and Socialists 1 each. Aid to Salesmen "Integrity, incidentally. Is one of the mightiest factors in salesmanship. If you have a reputation for stating facts exactly for never attempting to gain momentary advantage through exag geration. you possess the basis of all successful salesmanship. "Next to Integrity comes personality that Indefinable charm that gives to men what perfume gives to flowers. Many of us thirfg of salesmen as peo ple traveling around with sample kits. Instead, we are all salesmen, every day of our lives. We are selling our ideas, our plans, our energies, our en thusiasms, to those with whom we come in contact. Thus, the man of genial presence Is bound to accomplish much more, under similar conditions, than the man without It. If you have personality, cherish It; If you have not, cultivate it. For personality can lie cultivated, although the task is not easy. "Nothing is so plentiful In America as opportunity. There are more Jobs for forceful men than there are force ful men to fill them. Whenever the question comes up of buying new works wc never consider whether we can make the works pay. That Is a foregone conclusion If we can ge.t the right man to manage them. "All successful employers of labor are stalking men who will do the un usual, men who think, men who at tract attention by performing more than is expected of them. These men have no difficulty in making their worth felt. They stand out above their fellows until their superiors can not fall to see them." —Charles M. Schwab in the American.

When a Feller Needs a Friend By BRIGGS i WAnTTA HOVAJ They ARE S \ - FOR LENJGTH - * \ ~ .WAivJf THEM PLErOTYV/ I The Agricultural Fairs [Pennsylvania Farmer] The county and district fair season is about over for the year. Reports indicate that the season was a success ful one in point of attendance—and attendance and the money left by the visitors appear to be the only point of view of the average fair manager. But the close of a so-called successful season is a good time to take stock of the net results of the fairs as a whole. To the comparative few who visit a large number of county and district fairs and have opportunity to study the apparent purposo and the evident result of fairs, there must be a very grave question whether or not these institutions as a class are ac complishing anything for agriculture; certainly we must concede that they are falling far short of their possi bilities. We made It a point to check up on the class of venders and the quality of goods sold by them at the fairs visited this season. As a result, we believe it safe to say that not 5 per cent, of the various articles sold on a fair ground, not including farm Implements and such trtaple com modities of fixed selling price, are sold at anything like their actual value. In other words, the concessionaries who pay for the privilege of selling their wares at county fairs regard the fair visitors as "easy marks" and proceed to extract the largest possible prices and give as little as necessary In return. This in Itself is perhaps a small consideration, but th.e trouble Is that it characterizes the entire spirit of a large percentage of the fairs. They are out to get all they possibly can from their fair patrons and give as little in return as possible. The fair has become a purely commercial proposition, as much so as a street or town carnival, and agricultural lnter cFta are merely incidental. There can be no objection to carnivals, adver tised and conducted as such; but there is very pointed objection to hundreds 1 of institutions posing as agricultural i educational institutions in order to draw money from the State Treasury and then practising carnival methods in the entertainment of their patrons. So-called Agricultural Shows [From the Right of Way.] A few years ago the best space on the fair ground was allotted to the exhibitors of agricultural implements. : To-day the fakirs have the right of I way and the exhibitors of agricultural ' machinery at a great many of the fairs 1 are given what space Is left. The result of this is that the ma jority of manufacturers and dealers in agricultural implements are cutting out their exhibits at these fairs and unless the managements wake up and change their methods they will be left with the fakirs. The State pays out a great many thousands of dollars to these so-called f.grlcultural fairs; the State appropri ates this money for agricultural pur poses. Our agricultural department recognizes the fact that if the farmers of Pennsylvania are to make the best of their calling they must be educated to better methods of farming, and also recognize the fact that Improved ma chinery is essential to the development of the agricultural interests of the state. The farmer is possibly more in terested to-day in the gasoline engine as a plowing proposition than any thing else, yet not one of the so-called agricultural fairs of Pennsylvania, so far as we know, made any arrange ments for a plowing demonstration in connection with their fairs. The thou sands of farmers that attended the plowing demonstration in tte West show the Interest of the farmers as a class In up-to-date methods. These demonstrations were given entirely in dependent of the fairs. Farmers are asking to be shown and the agri cultural fairs missed a great oppor tunity when they failed to provide a chance to allow the farmers to see the different makes of gasoline tractors at actual field work. The manufacturers stood ready and were anxious to demonstrate their machines, hut were only able to do so In actual field work where thev were able to secure ground at their own expense. It is to he hoped that before the next ! legislature makes an appropriation for these so-called agricultural exhi bition It will know that the association getting State aid is going to give agri cultural exhibits that will he educa tional in place of crude, vulgar ex hibits that go as near the line of the obscene as law officers that see not will permit. MAKE HARRISBURG "ATLANTIC CITY OF PENNSYLVANIA" IS POSSIBILITY AS VISITOR SEES IT j By Allen Sangree TJIE Atlantic City of Pennsyl vania! That's what Harrisburg should be. Thus spoke a Chicago visitor last summer on one of the very hot days when several thousand Harrisburgers were gasping to, somehow, anyhow, get a dip in the Susquehanna. "If not to cry, it would be to laugh" observed this stranger, a brisk Rotartan, by the way, and with a knowledge of the landscape art. "All this water and no way to get In It" he grinned. Motoring along the River Front he gave ample tribute to the improve ments already made, yet his practical mind could not but reach out for the one thing needful. He d! issed the idea of bathing facilities from a hygie nic and sanitary viewpoint, but being a commercial person he lay most stress on the business benefits. "This river could be made so attractive" he vowed, "that you would have a couple thou sand people here every day from the surrounding country, persons who could not afford in time or money to go to Atlantic City. And what would that mean to the merchants and shop keep ers!" Hint From Outsider Sometimes we have to wait for an outsider to turn on the flashlight. Har risburg Is by no means slow, but there are so many other questions involv ing her Improvement that this one seems to be ignored. This Chicago man's remarks stuck in my craw so insistently that I took the trouble of canvassing the river banks pretty care fully to see If something could be done by next year at comparatively small ex pense. And the most likely basis for operations, it appeared to me. is Mc- Cormlck's Island snd the adjacent wa ters. In this era of Intelligence It is hard ly necessary to enlarge on the topic of health. The most conservative miser would grant that it Is a universal crav ing. We prove this by the accustomed salutation the world over: "How are you?" Health means good morals. Swimming—outdoor life, such as our grand river offers, means health. And one only needs to point out that swim ming Is the best exercise In summer time because It does not heat the hlood. With the expenditure of a few thousand dollars, this community could easily be come singularly famous for developing a healthy and happy cltlzenhood. "Who Is that magnificent human flsh?" you can hear folks Inquire In the near fu ture. "He must be from Harrlsburg." In discussing McCormlck's Island as a municipal playground de luxe you first think of the water facilities, for they are all Important. The fact is then, that the Susquehanna there fur nishes a broad, long stretch of clean wa ter with less current than is met fur ther down, say, along Independence Is land. Here Is a delicious spot, big enough for all Harrisburg to swim In, with sufficient depth. And the proposi tion suggests Itself of how to make the great pool safe. Breakwater Proposes Eventually, a breakwater might be built out from the lower end of the island to a distance of five or six hun dred feet toward the main land, but temporarily the system used many other places could be established at small cost. This consists In building half a dozen floats, a log foundation covered with boards, stoutly moored. On these you have your diving plat forms and spring boards. Unskilled swimmers thus have a destination and nearby lodging place. For youngsters a couple of these floats might be moor ed In shallow water. With such appli ances, any person, beginner or oxpert, can "get In" the Susquehanna. The proper place to build bathing houses would be on the laland and this would require a municipal ferry, capa cious of dock, running at brief regular Intervals, and not onca In a while, aa the one does to Independence Island. A nominal charge of one penny per passenger would in course of time pay for this Investment and for mainten ance. Now when McCormlck's Island was presented to the city, the donor, I take it. Intended that the public should get all the pleasure out of it which is pos sible. At present, only an acre or so Is utilized by a few school children for camping. That was a good beginning, but why not give the Harrlsburg fami lies a chance to taste the delights of open air life In hot summer time! There Is no doubt but that people of moderate circumstances relish a dip in to Nature Just as much as the wealthy who can afford to go great distances for this enjoyment. Witness the mad scramble this last summer of hun dreds of mothers with their children seeking for recreation on Independence Island with Its very meager attrac tions. Some years ago New York opened a camping spot In the Bronx Park ad joining Long Island Sound. Twenty thousand campers live there each sum mer now, and the Health Department has stated that this scheme is the one prime medium for Improving the health and morals of a good portion of New York's varied population. The sumo thing has been done at Jamaica Bay, on the south shore of Long Island. Municipal Kitchen My suggestion would be for Harrls burg to put up a municipal kitchen, say, toward the upper end of McCormlck's Island and establish there a big camp where a man could bring his family during a week or two, or perhaps for the whole summer, and at least Imagine himself a Rockefeller or Schwab. Each one would, of course, furnish ills own provender, but cook it at the public kitchen, thus saving a great number of fires. A camp of this sort. It has been proved, can be managed In orderly fashion. McCormick's Island contains some thing like 120 acres, I believe, an im mense tract of land, a good part of which is now almost undiscovered for est. It is there waiting to be utilized by the city. It has every advantage that a practical landscape artisan could ask for. If the big camping ground idea is not adopted now, though it will be by a later generation, something sure ly should be done for the benefit of present day taxpayers. Provide a mu nicipal ferry and you will Instantly Bee how greedily Harrlsburg will revel in this primeval spot, cooled as it Is by mountain breezes, laved by navigable waters and free of mosquitos. Reservoir and Wlldwood have their beauties but not the particular uses and attractions of McCormick's Island' Here Is Infinite space for a tired man to stretch his legs and sniff pure air space for many tennis courts, baseball and football fields. The trees alone are worth the price of admission which re minds that many of those majestic vet erans are going to ruln-for the lack of attention. Put up a line of bath houses on that terrace, build a wide pathway clear around the Island, con "oatß - buy a ferryboat, and the youth of Harrlsburg will hp grateful all their lives to the city that gave them health and strength.

It would not be a bad Idea for some of those contemplating a few days In the woods to go to the State Museum and take a look at Curator Rothrock's excellent collections of the Pennsylvania game birds. This collec tion. which State Librarian Montgom ery says is an education In itself, has recently been enlarged by a display of pheasants and wildcats. The birds and animals have been mostly obtained by -Mr. Rothrock and have been mounted pnd placed in surroundings exactly like those in which they are to be found. Each variety Is in a space by Itself and the hedgerows In which "Bob White" 1* to be found, the kind of den that thrf wildcat makes and the hole wherein Reynard the Fox makes his home have been reproduced with a fidelity to nature that Is highly cred itable. The wild turkey group, which contains two superb specimens shot within sight of the Capitol dome, Is worth looking at because wild turkeys have been plentiful, and yet. If the truth bo told, some tame birds were shot in honest mistake for the wily wild bird that furnishes such excellent sport makes the hunter tramp so many miles. Thanks to the space afforded by the old flagroom, the curator hns been able to spread out a bit, and his showing of smaller game and of the salmon and bass that make the Sus- B U EI nna an d Juniata such famous nshlng streams are well displayed. Abundant opportunity Is given for thfi , Kame and ,tB habitat and for those thinking about going into the woods the museum has a distinct value. • • v,? ea(, if 1? the tele graph companies here who have to maintain messenger forces say that they are having their own troubles. Last winter they had to make a complete readjustment be cause of the child labor law and its prohibition of night work for minors and men were obtained for the jobs. Some elderly messengers and some whose Infirmities prevented other ac tivity were employed. But lately the demand has become so great In other lines for men with even ono hand that the forces have been found full of holes about every other week. Hard, unfeeling district managers cannot be made to understand that conditions are such that it is hard to maintain an efficient force, and then, again, as one manager put it, "I've taken a lot off messengers that I never took be fore." * • • Among the graduates of the train ing class of the llarrlsburg Public Library who have made good and se cured fine positions is Miss Clara Campbell, a daughter of Professor E.

Miss Campbell has just secured the place as head of the children's department of the Public Library at St. Joseph, Mo. • * * Speaking of the Library, it Is in teresting to note that since the re moval of quarantine restrictions the circulation among children has gone up like a rocket. In August there was ;io circulation, tn September it was within a hundred of what it was the (same month in 1915. The children's i work has become a very important ■ brunch of library activity here and the latter part of this week the children's story hour will be resumed and the school libraries will be reopened In six of the schoolhouses of the city. These school libraries met with great success at the start and there are de mands for more all over the city, which the funds of the library, un fortunately, will not permit. • • Commissioner Lynch is having hia own troubles with the leaves these days. The late autumn has caused the leaves to remain on the trees for long periods and they are commenc ing to come down pretty heavily theses cool mornings. The leaves clog up sewer inlets and make all kinds of trouble so that Mr. Lynch's force gets an early start each day and carts the leaves off to the river bank or to vacant lots. • Folks at the Capitol are watching to see whether the Supreme Court cham ber on the top floor of the east wing Is to be kept as a show room or whether It is to be utilized for hearings aside from those of the State Boar# of Par dons. The Supreme and Superior Courts meet here once a year and the sum total of the days they spend in Hairisburg is about one week. The Board of Pardons occupies the cham ber ten times a year. The rest of the time the chamber Is a show place of the Capitol. The Public Service Com mission used to sit in it, but lately has been using the caucus rooms of the Capitol. When the Legislature assem bles there will be use for the caucus rooms, and what Is Interesting folks .-it the Capttol Is whether the Board of Public Crounds and Buildings, of which the Oovernor Is the head, or the Pupremp Court Is to say whether the room will be used or Just shown. • • • "Thn's not the way to play marbles.
