"MOTHER" LEAD
NOTE IN SERMONS
Ministers Take Texts From
Stories of Her Care, Love
and Sacrifice
"Mother" was the dominate note
in anthem and sermon yesterday in
Harrisburg churches.
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.
Pleads For Dry Nation
Dr. Burroughs spoke last night in
Westminster Presbyterian Church on
"An Important Phase of the Liquor

EMBRYO OFFICERS
BEGIN TRAINING
[Con llimed From First Page]
Men from the officers' reserve corps
have been placed in charge of the
fourteen companies, of which nine
are for infantry training two for
cavalry and three for field artillery.
The fifteenth company is composed
of men of the engineering corps, and
ali will be commissioned. The roster
<>:' this company is now a little more
than 100 men.
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.
All recruits who have entered
camp are ranked as privates. No
favoritism is being shown. 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.
Rich and Poor
The rich man's son eats with the
i poor man. washes his dishes after
j mess and makes his bed each morn-
I ing. lie serves In the "clean-up"
i detail and serves on "orderly" detail
without murmur. All are learning
| their first lesson in soldiering—obe
| dience to superiors. They are all
| considered privates, irrespective of
, their previous military training or
service.
The men are more than pleased
1 with the camp and surroundings.
! They also are satisfied with tho
"chow", as they have already come
to call their food.
j The Sunday dinner, although plain
I was good, wholesome food for sol-
I ciiers and there was plenty of it. Men
j who have seen service o:i the Mex-
I iian border say the food being served
] hero is so far superior to that served
at the border that there was no com
parison. Dinner consisted of boiled
ham, boiled potatoes, stewed corn,
bread without butter and coffee with
milk and sugar.
No dessert was served but many
oi' the companies are now arranging
their own mess, and It Is expected
there will be a varied menu in the
different companies after they get
fully organized and the rosters are
complete.
Inoculation against typhoid fever
has been started for those who have
never received it. The members of
companies one, five and thirteen
bared their arms before the post
surgeons.
