David Lukens, a prpperty owner, is in the Morrisville jail, where he insists on re maining fifteen days to serve out the fine imposed upon him last night by Justice of the Peace W. 11. Kunsman. Lukens was arrested for a violation of the sanitary code, and when sentence was pronounced said he was willing to pay, but not in money. He entered one of'the cells of the lock-up nnd the pleadings of the offi cers and members of his family failed to get him to go home. The authorities are at a loss to know what to do, as it will cost the borough more to feed him than the fine and costs amount to. The cell doors are open, but Lukens refuses to leave. His family took bedclothes to his cell last night. ROCKEFELLERS FOR DEFENSE Millionaires living in "Westchester county. New York, have formed a county committee of public safety with John D.

SURVEYS OF VARIOUS MUNICIPAL DEPA RT ME NT S BEING SENIORS AS PART Attendance at one session of the House and Senate; a visit to one ses sion of either the criminal or civil court, and a trip to at least one of the city's industrial plants is required as part of the work of the Tech Sen iors in the pursuit of civil govern ment. Professor Pierce Rettew is di rector of the work. Instead of using all the time to memorizing terms of office and salaries, all of which are soon forgotten, it Is the intention of the class to make the work more of a practical nature. Corh mittees have been appointed to make surveys of the filter plant, the police department, the parks, the charitable associations of the cities, the work 7>f the Chamber of Commence, as well as every field of endeavor that is repre sented under the municipal form of government. Report to Class After the committees have made their inspections, reports are made to the class. While the Tech lads do not expect to decide the questions once for all. the research work that they are doing will sow se*d that will mature after they have reached manhood. i A number of the committees have al ready made their surveys, and have reported to the class. Each student has work to do on several of the commit tees, while all of them are required to attend the sessions of the Legislature and the court. To DlarnftK Taxation The work Is more of a practical na ture rather than being all theory as to the running of a city government. The Tech Seniors have shown much enthusiasm in working out the city problems, while later the questions of taxation and election will be discussed. Professor Rettew has appointed these committees: Filter Plant—Raymond Baxter, Wil liam Crist. Evitts, Fred Haehnlen and Kenneth Stark. Health Departmeht—Gordon Werner, H. Wagner, John Knouse and John Paul. Building Inspection—Raleigh Evans. James Kennedy, Earl Bastian and Mar tin Miller. Fire Department—Lester Wolfe, Earl Unger, Roger Harman and Paul Mel choir.

Todd, ( Camp Fire Notes New York, April 4.—News of the Camp Fire Girls' patriotic activities all over the United States and in foreign countries is pouring in from Camp Fire Guardians to national headquarters, at 461 Fourth avenue. "Some of my girls have been dong voluntary war work," writes Miss S. Dorothy Ilousden from London. Eng land. "Two of them did really hard work carting potatoes—work that was really a man's work; and I propose giving patriotism honors for real war work like this." "Wo took part in the wonderful Red Cross parade in Atlanta, and the girls made quit% a good impression," writes Mrs. Elsie B. Goswell, of Decatur, Ga. "My girls have taken charge of a poor family—a mother and two girls, thirteen and eleven; and a boy nine. They have given clothes and supplies all during the winter and enabled the mother to be operated on at the public hospital in Atlanta—a very serious operation." "We celebrated the Camp Fire Girls' Birthday by making hospital ba-fes for the Red Cross Society and filling them with comforts for the soldiers," writes Miss Lillian M- Philpot, of Corinna. Me. "In December we gave an auction of cakes, bread, etc.," writes Miss Marion E. Hartness, from Korea, Japan. "We took in about twelve yen which we shall use toward decorating our room." "I have been much pleased with the Camp Fire spirit of some of my girls," writes Mrs. Anna R. Calderwood, of South Portland, Me. "They wanted their ceremonial dresses very much indeed, and their parents were abund antly able and very willing to pur chase same for them, yet they have chosen to wait until those less able to get their dresses have saved and worked in order that all might enjoy them together" "The Camp Fire was divided up into two sides with five girls on each side and a captain at the head," writes Mrs. Florence B. Atwell, of Richford, Vt. "The town was divided into two parts and each side assigned a pari. The side collecting the most news papers to sell would be entertained in some way by the losing side. The newspapers were brought to the home of the Guardian, sorted, and from there taken by a committee of girls to a furniture manufacturing plant Where they were sold for sixty cents a hundred pounds. We realized two dollars and eighty-four cents from the sale." The Tawasentha Camp Fire of crip pled girls at the Van Leuven Browne Hospital School In Detroit, Mich., is much agitated by the claim of another Camp Fire for Crippled Girls that it was the first. The matter is being investigated. "Our girls camp on the shores of Lake Huron three inonths every year." writes Blanche Van L. Browne, the Guardian, "and even my paralysed girls can swim. They can do every thing other girls can do except walk." "We had the rare opportunity of welcoming as our guest a returned missionary from India," writes Mrs. Margaret L. Jones, of Pelham, N. Y. "He told the girls stories of their sis ters far across the_seas." "We are all taking a course in First Aid and bandaging under the direc tion of one of our fathers, a physi cian," writes Miss Alice Johnston, of Pikeville, Ky. "We are now planning to publish a cook book of our own with our mother's recipes to earn our summer's camping money." "Great Joy has come into the Beaver Lodge Camp Fire Group!" writes Mrs. B. B. Knapa Vof Old Forge, N. Y. "My assistant's two months' darling haby has been en trusted to our camp. At our cere monial last Friday, this baby was adopted—such genuine jov is written on the faces of girls of thirten years only a few times in their lives. This baby will do much to develop beauty of spirit in a way I could not develop in a time." HOW THE PAPERS STAND The National Association of Mili tary Training and the Army Genera!

Such a result could be characterized only as treason to the United States:" Copies of the resolution were sent to President Wilson and to the or ganizations represented in the Nation al Committee of Patriotic and Defense Societies. WALK ON PAPER I.EGS Paris, April 5. —Artlflclal legs lj( made from papier mache and costing less than 75 cents each, are being supplied to wounded soldiers in Paris hospitals. The paper legs, which are the inven tion of a Danish surgeon, are merely for temporary use, but with care, will last from six months to a year. They are made on the spot, can be used a fortnight after the amputation, and obviate the necessity for crutches while the patient is convalescing. A hospital orderly can cut out, fit and complete a paper leg for a patient In about half an hour. The work takes a day to dry and set and may be used the next day by the invalid.
