their place and never "get" the corn,
and who have dug and picked at your
corns with knives and scissors and
perhaps rilfade them bleed—just quit
these old and painful ways and try
"Gets-lt" just once. You put - or :i
drops on. and it dries at once. There's
nothing to stick. You can put your
shoe and stocking right on again. The
pain is all gone. Then the corn dies
a painless, shriveling death, it loosenes
from your toe, and off it comes. "Gets
lt" is the biggest selling corn remedy
in the world to-day. There's none
other as good.
"Gets-It" is sold by druggists every
where. 23c a bottle, or sent on receipt

KEEP FEEI WH
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to
Take Salts and Get Rid
of Uric Acid
Rheumatism is no respecter of
age, sex, color or rank. If not the
most dangerous of human afflictions
it is one of the most painful. Those
subject ,to rheumatism should eat
less meat, dress as warmly as pos
sible, avoid any undue exposure and,
above all, drink lots of pure water.
Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowels and
absorbed into the blood. It is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out
in the urine; the pores of the skin
are also a means of freeing the blood
of this impurity. In damp and chilly,
cold weather the skin pores are
i losed thus forcing the kidneys to do
double work, they become weak and
sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric
acid which keeps accumulating and
circulating through the system,
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles causing stiffness, soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salt*; put a table
spponful in a glass of water and
drink before breakfast each morning
for a week. This is said to eliminate
uric acid by stimulating the kidneys
to normal action, thus ridding the
blood of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from tne acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with
lithia and is used with excellent re
sults by thousands of folks who are
subject to rheumatism. Here you
have a pleasant effervescent lithia
water drink which overcomes uric
acid and is beneficial to your kidneys
as well. —Adv.

SCOUT CAMPAIGN
[Continued From First Page]
ganizer, who is directing the four
ilay campaign to raise a fund of
$12,000 to .nance Hoy Scout activi
ties in Harrisburg for the next three
years, was greatly cheered to-day by
the receipt of several telegrams con
veying best wishes for success from
Scout officials in various cities, where
Mr. Buddy has conducted similar
campaigns.
Here are a few of the messages:
From *"*r. M. Gulick, Scout Execu
tive, Scranton, Fa.: "Scranton sends
you hopes for a great campaign."
Hansom T. Lewis, president El
mira. X. Y. Council, B. S. of A., sent
this one: "Elmira Council Boy
Scouts of America Incorporated ex
tends greetings to all brothers of
Harrisburg engaged in this great
movement. May your cup overflow
With success. You are making a
wonderful investment."
t. R. Williams, secretary, Scran
ton Council, wired: "Best wishes for
a successful campaign. You did it
for us, go to it in Harrisburg."
This message came from Richard
Knowles, president, Xew Bedford,
Mass., Council, B. S. of A.: "Can
wish you no more than the same
success you had in Xew Bedford.
To overrun $4,500 is good, but to or
ganize a new troop every week since
is better. You gave us a new start.
James K. West, chief schout exec
utive, Xew York City, sent the fol
lowing: "Delighted to know finan
cial campaign launched. Scouting is
greatest supplemental medium for
character development of boyhood
and is splendid civic asset. Team
workers deserve support and grati
tude of entire city. Devotion and
activity of team workers will deter
mine results. Harrisburg as a pros
perous city cannot afford to fail to
recognize obligations to its boys, es
pecially since scores of other cities
have financed scouting for their
boys. National Council sends hearty
wishes for success. 'Every Scout to
feed a soldier.' "
John Yates, general secretary of
the Associated Aid Charities, who is
attending a convention of antituber
culosis workers at Cincinnati, sent
this telegram to Howard Fry* "Re
gret not being in it all. Success to
campaign. Harrisburg boys are
worth every last ounce of every
body's energy." ,
American Ship Drives
Off U-Boat With Guns
Xew York, May 10. —An armed
American Line steamship which ar
rived here last night from a Eu
ropean port reported that her gun
crew tired six shots at a German sub
marine off the coast of Ireland on
May 'I. The undersea boat im
mediately submerged and it was im
possible to determine whether any
of the shots took effect.
The periscope of the submarine
was sighted about 0 p. in. and the
American vessel immediately swung
around to afford the gunners an op
portunity for accurate aim. The
undersea craft disappeared simul
taneously with the firing of the first
shot, it was said, and did not re
appear. The American ship then put
on full speed and proceeded on her
course.

LABOR ASKED TO
REMAIN LOYAL
[Continued lVom First l'nge]
Labor and Industry and was opposed
to proposed reductions of its appro
priations; opposed to setting aside tile
full crew law and labor employment
acts during the war and any suspen
sion which would interfere with safe
guards: urged that the state should
not make the mistake of England
and overwork women and children in
wartime and that labor legislation
should be advanced.
Roger Dever, counsel for the Fed
eration, asked if the governor would
not ascertain why bills embodying la
bor's propos6d amendments to the
compensation law, including Increased
compensation, could not leave the
committee in charge. "We should
know why these bills are still in com
mittee. The state should know why
these bills can't leave committee," de
clared Mr. Dever. "I prepared these
amendments and I want to say that
the man to whom the amendments
were given lias not used them. The
people of the state ought to be told
why. Somebody is cheating and labor
wants to know why."
Governor Brumbaugh promptly re
plied that the bills ought to come
out of committee and have an open
and honest discussion on the floor of
the House. "If there is any power in
me to flnd out why they have been
unduly held up I will lind out." said
the governor.
In closing the governor compliment
ed Dr. Jackson as "a capable, honest,
upright and impartial official." He
said he was proud of him and stood
with hint.

which Great Britain is one of the
powers; and, whereas, a Democracy
is the slogan of the Allies' cause, and
in order to make a living reality of
Democracy; be it resolved. That we
petition of the President of the United
States to urge upon Great Britain the
necessity of Parliament granting
home rule to Ireland and thus estab
lishing the Democracy that is neces
sary for the land." "*

The State Federation of Labor this

endorsing the Department of Labor
and Industry and Commissioner John

The purpos of this resolution, as
•set forth by Mr. Wheeler, is to en
courage the more rapid extension of
vocational education throughout the
state and to provide a channel,
through which the skill and knowl
edge of the organized workers may
be utilized to aid the school system
of the state.
He explained to the convention
that he had been working on this
problem for eight years under the
direction of the Central Labor Coun
cil. of Allentown, and that as a re
sult of the work of the Central La
bor Council a very good system of
vocatiohal training was now being
organized in Allentown.
The labor movement of Allentown
feels that faster progress could be
made and greater results be obtained
by intelligent co-operation between
ail groups who have interest in the
subject.
The committee on industrial edu
cation has been Instructed by the
convention to seek to establish co
operation between all groups seek
ing to promote industrial education.
The membership of the committee
is as follows: Robert J. Wheeler, of
Allentown, John F. Dempsey. presi

mer city commissioner, and was
once a professional teacher, receiv
ing his training at the Bloomsburg
State Xormal School. Eichorn is al
so a former city commissioner of
Erie, Pa., and is a member of the
Typographical Union.
In support of the motion to adopt
the resolution, William Corless, of
the Typographical union, declared
that the proposition was one of the
most important that ever came be
fore the State Federation; that the
Typographical union was most
heartily in favor of vocational edu
cation; that in this support of voca
tional education for printers, his
union annually spent thousands of
dollars.
"Let us promote vocational train
ing for all worker*," said Corless,
"and speed the day when all union
men are so well trained and edu
cated that the teim 'a good work
man shall mean a union man.'"
Delegate Curry, uf the Painter's
Union of Allegheny county told of a
school for painters in Pittsburgh,
where the building and equipment is
provided by school authorities and
the teachers by the Painter's union.
The resolution was adopted unani
mously.
It follows: Whereas: The school
system of the state of Pennsylvania
does not offer facilities for the full
development of the children of the
workers of the state, and
Whereas, The influence of or
ganized labor is not felt nor is the
great stoj-c of knowledge and skill
possessed by the organized workers
of the state now available for use
in the schools of the state, greatly
to the loss of our children and the
industrial life of the state. There
fore be it
Resolved That we, the State Fede
ration of Labor, in convention as
sembled, declare ourselves In favor
of a greater extension of the work
of the vocational schools of the state,
and be it
Resolved, That we favor the ap
pointment of a standing comtplttee
on industrial education, by the pres
ident, to consist of three members.
The duties of this committee shall
be to promote the extension of voca
tional education in Pennsylvania
and to the increase of the influence
of organized labor in the school sys
tem so that the knowledge and skill
of the organized workers may be
utilized for the better industrial edu
cation of the workers.
The committee shall offer its co
operation to any oody or group of
citizens whose objects and endea
vors may be directed toward the
same end, so that Pennsylvania
workers may become better edu
cated and Pennsylvania industry
may have more highly skilled arti
sans thereby adding to the intelli
gence and the welfare of the Com
monwealth.

Bad in Great Britain
TiOndon, May 10. Reports on
the agricultural outlook in Great
Britain are almost uniformly dis
couraging. Not even the oldest far

under strict discipline, and it is ex
pected they will make a striking ap
pearance as they swing along to the
martial beat of drums.
Arriving at the "front," which is
"somewhere in the, netgliborhood of
Seventeenth and Berryhill streets."
the guards will halt and present
arms. They will then be divided into
squads and march a short distance
to a large plot of ground which will
be the scene of their "battle." The
work of digging trenches will be
started immediately.

brave little army is going into a real
tight;—just that. However, it is not
bent on destruction. This army is
going to produce. It is going to pro
duce potatoes.
