some pretty serious snags in the
shape of dairy and food agents who
have had no hesitancy In condemn
ing food found stored beyond the
legal limit. In a number of instances
the agents rooted out foods which
had been stored In out-of-the-way
places and ordered the packages out
lowed, notifying the owners that if
they attempted to sell they would
b<- prosecuted to the fullest extent
of the law.
One report from Luzerne and
I:ackawanna counties to Dairy and
Food Commissioner James Foust
showed that a State agent had out
lawed eleven whole carcasses which
had been stored by a supposed spec

Stories of great sacrifices for the
country more than fifty years ago,
appeals to the youth—urging them
to stand by the United States, and
patriotic demonstrations by school
students in Technical and Central
Higli Schools and all the grade
buildings featured the Memorial ex
ercises all over the city to-day.
This morning veterans from the
city Grand Army posts spoke at the
high schools. In the afternoon an
other large delegation visited every
ether building in the city, a few
stopping at each one to participate
in the program of the day.
At the Technical High School, Dr.

sioner of labor and Industry, in pay
ing a tribute to the Civil War vet
erans, said that in preparing for the
present conflict, honor should be paid
to these veterans.

Samuel R. Goss, Chauncey Glenn,

NEWS OF S
START REMOVAL
OF FIRE DEBRIS
Flames Break Out in Ruins
Last Night; Guards Are
Placed on Duty
Work on removing the debris of
the Higlispire fire yesterday after
noon, which destroyed a Hour and
feed warehouse, three dwellings and
a coal yard, was started early this
morning.
The three families made homeless
by the blaze were given temporary
quarters among residents of the town
last night. Congested housing condi
tions in the borough are making it
difficult for these people .to find
homes, and residents have .volun
teered to take care of them for a
few days.
Breaks Out Again
The debris of the Sauder home 1"
Front street started to blaze last eve
ning at 8 o'clock and the Highspire
fire company was called out. A
chemical stream was put on and
played on all night. Three Bethlo.
hem Steel Company policemen were
on guard all night and this morning.
A. J. Hoke, whose coalyard was
completely destroyed, started work
this morning on temporary quarters,
and expects to build permanent,
quarters later.
This is Highspire's second serious
conflagration in the past six months.
Both got beyond control of the local
firemen, largely due to the lack of
water supply. The serious situation
of the borough being without water
was given impetus by the fire of
yesterday and it is probable residents
will go before council to demand tho
installation of lire hydrants.
Ministerial Committee
Will Meet Next Week
Announcement was made to-day
that the committee from the Minis
terial Association of Steelton and vi
cinity appointed to encourage a

board to ascertain what move pould
bo taken to start the work In the
borough again. The committee is
