In many of the churches special services were held commemorating Mothers' Day, miniterss taking their texts from the stories of the care, love and sacrifice of mothers as re corded in Scripture and history. Choirs rendered "the hymns that mother sang." Patriotic meetings were held in some of the churches at which the principal topic of interest was na tional prohibition during the war. Taking for his subject "The Pass ing of the Kings and the Coming of the Triumph of Democracy," the Rev. Dr. George Edward Reed, president emeritus of Dickinson Col lege delivered one of the greatest sermons of his long career as preach er and orator last night at the Stev ens Memorial Church. The audi torium was crowded to the doors. Predicts Uncrowning Dr. Reed said that this war was started for the purpose of subjecting the whole world under the rule of one powerful autocrat and that the United States as the leader in up holding the of freedom and democracy 'was compelled to enter the conflict. He predicted the uncrowning of all earthly kings when this war shall have ended, and that the people will be sovereigns. Other visiting speakers who occu pied Harrisburg pulpits yesterday included J. B. Burroughs. M. D., of New York City, and the Rev. Alfred Sutcliffe, of Gettysburg, who preach ed in the Memorial Lutheran Church.

Many men not officially summoned arrived in camp yesterday. Several were disappointed and forced to re turn to their homes, their hope of entering the first camp being shat tered by Captain Fred S. Strong, the post adjutant. Others —those with J pievious military training—were per | mitted to remain in camp in the be | lief that .there may be some who fail to report. Wait I or Second Call To those who returned home to day Captain Strong announced that the second call for officers' recruits would probably be issued about Au j gust 1 and that training would prob- I ably begin about tlie middle of the month.

These men will remain as privates or "non coms" during the training period and until such time as they pass the ex aminations for tlie commission for which they have applied. Assign ments of corporals and perhaps a few sergeants may be announced shortly, but up to the present the task of forming tlie company squads is all that has been done.

Dinner consisted of boiled ham, boiled potatoes, stewed corn, bread without butter and coffee with milk and sugar.
