SATURDAY EVENING,
'GERMANS FAIL
TO FOLLOW UP
FRENCH DRIVE
Make No Further Effort in
: Champagne; Allies Repulsed
in Counterattack
i Apparently, the Germans liavo not
| followed up the attack Berlin reported
! yesterday "as having gained ground for
i them half a mile deep on a milo and |
a half front in the Champagne.
To-day's announcement from Bcr- j
lin mentions no further German effort
in this region. The French, however,
are declared to have been repulsed in
an attack in tlie\Champagne, south of
Ripont, where tne Germans reported
their advance had been scored.
I The Paris official statements so far
t have not mentioned any infiwitry light
ling in the Champagne during the per- i
iod covered by the German claim.
To-day's bulletin reports merely the ]
continuation of artillery actions in thit j
district. ,
Blow Ammunition Stores
Another attack made by the French ,
was in the Aisne region, west of Berry- (
au-Bac. Berlin reports this likewise
was repulsed. The-blowing up of sev
eral entente ammunition depots in tho
Somme region, the explosions shaking .
the ground as far as St. Quentin,
twenty miles away, is reported by the |
German war office. *
Raiilers Active
Pronounced activity by raiders de- I
veloped along large sectors of the
Franco-Belgian front, in tho Artoise. j
along the Somme, southeast of Ver- I
dun and in Alsace.
The most important development in !
the other war areas was the beginning j
of engagements along the northern |
part of the Rumanian front, north of j'
the Cituse Valley, reported by Berlin, i
The lighting there started at dawn to
day. The German statement did not! 1
indicate which side took the offensive, i
Petrograd's statement refers merely j
to outpost engagements in the Ruma- i
nian war theatre. I *
One steamer was added by the j i
morning reports to the list of vessels !:
destroyed. The victim was the British 1
steamer I.ady Ann, of 1,016 tons, sunk i

IF KIDNEYS AND 1
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to flush Kidneys and i
neutralize irritating
v acids.
Kidney and Bladder weakness result i
from uric acid, says a noted authority. I
The kidneys filter this acid from the j
blood and pass it on to the bladder, j
where it often remains to irritate and j
inflame, causing a burning, scalding j
sensation, or setting up an irritation l
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times j
during the night. The sufferer is in !
constant dread, the water passes some- ;
times with a scalding sensation and is j
very profuse; again, there is diffi-1
culty in avoiding it.
1 Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urination. ■
While it is extremely annoying and!
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments to'
1 overcome. Get about four ounces of j
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast, continue'this for
! two or three days.' This will neutral
ize the acids in the urine so it no
; longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally agaiif.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made frorii the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with lithia,
• and is used by thousands of folks who
' are subject to urinary disorders caus
ed by uric actfi irritation. Jad Salts
1 is splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever,
Here you have a pleasant, efferves
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.
STAMM GETS MANY
RECOMMENDATIONS
1
[(ontiiurtil From First Page]
only that of a well-meant volun
tary co-operation."
Following this telegram was a let
ter to Mr. Stamm from McClain cov
ering a little more fully the subject of
the wire message. It follows:
"I have learned that you ure
seeking to employ a school archi
tect, and being much interested in
the subject of schoolbuildings
and equipment, 1 took liberty this
morning of sending you a paid
day letter.
"It will bo adding unnecessarily,
perhaps, for me to say more, the
day letter being rather complete
within itself. However, Ido wish
to emphasize it for, in my judg
; ment, Mr. Ittner is absolutely
without a peer in his line, —as an
architect for schoolbuildings and
equipment. 1 have been told by
many architects that ho stands
'head and shoulders,' as one put
it, above all others.
"If you will be kind enough to
note a copy of the souvenir edi- '
tiqn of 'The Dragon,' the high
school publication here, which I
am sending under separate cover
in this mail, it will give you some
idea of what Mr. Ittner did for ,
me. 1 know his work is finding
favor in all parts of tho country."
Added to this this morning was a
telegram from the vice-president of
the Erie School Board. Mr. Ittner
drew plans for Erie schools costing
more than a million dollars and is
now engaged on plans for two build
ings that will cost half a million
more. The telegram follows:
"Mr. Ittner was originally em
ployed to design two large grade
buildings, later selected to design
cosmopolitan high school and
again selected to design another
high school and a grade building.
These repeated endorsements indi
cate the Board's confidence in his
professional ability."
Mr. Stamm said this morning that j
one of the strongest recommendations j
for Mr. Ittner was the satisfaction he
has given to all who have employed !
him.
Ittner's Record
Mr. Stamm pointed out in detail to
a reporter to-day that Mr. Ittner had
superintended the contruction of j
schoolbuildings in St. Louis worth !
$9,000,000; that a commission ap
pointed under an act of Congress had
designated these buildings as being
"probably the best in the United
j States," and other public and private
buildings throughout the country cost
ing many million dollars. Mr. Ittner
is now completing a high school build
ing costing $1,200,000 in Washington.
When asked why the matter had
not been taken up in the Board yes
terday, President Stamm replied:
Didn't Have the Votes
"I don't know why the matter was
! not called up. But ido know why it
I was not brought forward by those fa
voring Mr. Ittner. It simply was be
j cause we didn't have the votes to have
him selected."
i Voting for the special committee's
| enodrsement of Mr. Ittner at Tues
day's meeting were President Stamm
land Directors Bacon. Enders and
j Yates. Voting against the recom
mendation were Directors 8011, Boyer,
| Keene, Bretz and Werner.
The votes of Bretz and Werner had
I been counted upon to some extent by
those favoring Mr. Ittner. Both were
elected to the Board on the slate
pushed through several years ago by
the Vance C. McCormick Democratic
organization and Mr. McCormick is
known to favor Mr. Ittner.
On the special committee which
recommends Mr. Ittner are David E.
Tracy, president of tho Harrisburg
Chamber of Commerce, and William
Jennings, representing the citizens'
committee; A. D. Bacon and A. C.
Stamm, representing the School Board
and Dr. F. E. Downes, city superinten
dent of schools. Their report set forth
that they had chosen Mr. Ittner be
cause they believed him to be abso
lutely the best man available.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
AUTO SHOW
CLOSES TONIGHT!
Huge Business and Large At- j
tendance as Show Draws
to Close
The order books of the salesmen are
growing fat as the end of the Eighth
Annual Automobile Show draws near
the end. Until after to-night, when
the show closes, it will be impossible
to get a definite idea of the actual
amount of business transacted or the
total number of visitors for the week.
It is a foregone conclusion however |
that both from the standpoint of busi- l
ness done by the exhibitors and the
total attendance the figures will be far |
in advance over any previous year's:
1 show. J. Clyde Myton, secretary of!
the Uarrisburg Motor Club, who Is
managing this year's show, is receiv
ing congratulations from members
' and exhibitors for the wonderful show
I he has staged.
I,ast night's attendance was a rec
ord-breaker for the same night of
previous shows. In fact, but one
night in the show's history has had a
larger attendance.
The show closes to-night, but tinlike
the balance of the week, the closing
hour has been made eleven, instead
of ten o'clock.
Seen and Overheard at
Local Automobile Show
] The Paige Brooklands convertible
roadster attracted exceptional interest
| last evening because of the canopy top
| and unusual arrangement of the rear
compartment. Having the appearance
of the regular two-passenger roadster
type, with canopy covering over the one
seat, a panel on rear of body can be
raised in a minute, making it possible
for two more to sit with the same com
! fort found in the new four-passenger
| roadster models. This is the same type
shown at the New York and Philadel
phia shows and said to be the only
convertible roadster of similar design.
This car was driven from Philadelphia
by J. T. Ramsey.
H. P. Willoughby, of the Velle-Har
risburg Company, lias received word
from the factory that all models will
advance SSO in price March 1. A model
finished in orange gave a touch of color
to this exhibit and was the object of
many expressions of admiration.
E. M. Hottenstein, distributor for
Chevrolet cars in this territory, has
been assisting George B. JCech at the
show exhibit. R. O. Bowman, traveling
represenatlve, accomapied Mr. Hotten
stein to Harrisburg.
The Pennsylvania Indemnity Ex
change. represented by A. K Hall, is
organized to furnish insurance to the
careful motorist. Twenty-five per cent,
is retained for management and ex
pense of losses paid from the remain
ing 75 per cent., and when policy ex
pires the unused balance is returned
to the policyholders, as per policy. Mr.
Hall reports that 35 per cent, has so far
been returned to the policyholders.
Full dress by those in charge of the
Hudson and Saxon exhibits gave a
metropolitan touch to the local show.
This is one of the features that have
helped to make this show classier than
its predecessors.

WOMAN FIGHTS
TO GET DAUGHTER
FROM FATHER
Wants Girl Entrusted to Her
Care; Court Learns About
Characters
For more than two hours in Dau
phin county court this morning, Ida
Wlese fought to liavo issued an order
giving into iter caro her J 3-year-old
daughter Bertha, now held by Rolan
dus Wiese, the father.
Wiese contested the case, and coun
sel for application and respondent
brought witness after witness, to testi
fy as to the fitness of each to care
for the girl.
Trunk searching tours which result
ed in a find of "scandal" letters,serious
charges and sensational disclosures
were features of the habeas corpus
proceedings. Improper conduct on
the part of both parents was alleged
In cross-examinations and at the close
of the case Additioanl Eaw Judge
Samuel J. M. McC&rrell declared he
could not turn the child over to the
mother, as she is working now to sup
port herself.
The case will probably be turned
over* to the Associated Aid Hocieetics
for investigation. The mother, while
on the stand announced her intention
to marry within the next few months.
She obtainod a divorce from her hus
band last June, after being separated
from him for more than ten years,
according to testimony.
Hoarding house mistresses, relatives
and friends were called to the stand
during the morning to give versions of
the past life of both Wiese and his
wife.
At present the girl will remain with
Wiese. and the case will be continued
unless brought into argument court.
W. Justin farter represented Wiese,
and Forrest Mercer, the mother of
the child.
