SAMUEL S. CAPIN
A son of Mr. and Mrs. A. Capln, of
201 Herr street, of this city, is among
the patriotic young men of Harris
burg who have answered their coun
try's call.
He has passed the examinations
for the Medical Corp* of the Regu
lar Army, and is now stationed at
Fort Ogeltliorpe, Georgia.
Mr. Capin was born in Manches
ter, England, and lie was three
months old when brought to this
city. He was educated in the fiubllc
schools of this city and also took a
course in the Young Men's Business
Institute. For a time he was asso
ciated with his father in the haber
dashery business in this city and
later he was with the Globe clothing
store, in the hat department.
Economy of Food Supplies
Is Main Consideration
That National dealers cn be of
national service by avoiding false
economy is the keynote of an im
portant bulletin just sent out by
George M. Dickson, president of the
National Motor Car and Vehicle Cor
poration.
"Let's put our foot on false econ
omy. 'Going shabby' by those of us
who habitually dress well and can
afford it. Is not going to help make
more guns and ammunition" advises
Dickson.
"I'iesident Wilson's address advo
cated strict economy, and rightly so,
in the way of foods. Foods are de
pendent on nature and the elements
and therefore the yield is problematic.
Rut not so of manufactured articles
which can be made in limitless quan
tities.
"Many Individuals may unwittingly
make the mistake of thinking that
because of the caution against wast
ing foodstuffs, that it would be pa
triotic to also economize in the buy
ing of all other commodities. Noth
ing could be more foolhardy and
nothing would bring about depress
ing conditions quicker.
"Let us learn to judge the differ
ence between false and true economy.
To do without manufactured articles,
the basis of all business and pros
perit, is certainly false economy. Any
one attainting suc ' l a course will
certainly defeat the very ends for
which we are all striving.
"£o far as the National Motor Car
and Vehicle Corporation is concern
ed, It Is planning to go ahead full
force and give employment to as
many men as possible. .July 1 starts
a new business year with the Na
tional factory. At a recent meeting
of the National officers and directors,
definite plans were made for increas
ing production to the maximum for
the incoming year."
IH I.IXG FAVORS MIXERS
Lykens, Pa., June 2'J. Charles P.
Neill, of Washington, D. C., umpire
of the Anthracite Conciliation Board,
has made a ruling in the grievance
presented by the men of the Short
Mountain Colliery of th>e Susque
hanna Coal Company, at Lykens, who
protested that the new steel cars of
a different shape held more fuel than
the old ones and that the company in
sisted on a fifteen-inch "topping" just
as was the case with the old smaller
wooden equipment. The umpire decid
ed that a twelve-inch "topping" is all
that the company can exact under its
contract rights.
Wisconsin Teacher and
Wife She Killed
mmm ssss&

rC _ .
MISS GRACII LUSK
fins. DAVIO^ROBCHT*
Miss Grace Lusk, a normal school
I teacher at Waukesha, Wis., shot to
i death Mrs. David Roberts, wife of
well-known veterinarian with whom
she was in love. Among her effects
was found a letter to Mrs. Roberts
which she had not mailed. It ex
plained her reason for murder:
"You must have known for a long
time that your husband's affections
had passed from you; that he cared
for some one else. That Is sufficient
annulment of any marriage vow that
ever was given.
"That is the way you respectable
folk—good, moral women do
things In order to keep your reputa
tion and live lives of ease.
"In the eternal triangle our souls
require the elimination of one char
acter. The two who should remain
I are the two whose affection is mu
tual. Will you some time read Ellen
I Key on 'Love and Marriage?' "
DR. SCHAEFFER
SENDS LETTERS
Calls Attention of Educators
to Hoover Plan For Food
Saving
Dr. Nathan C. Schaeffer, state su
perintendent of public instruction,
has sent a letter to the superinten
dent of every school district, city and I
county, included, calling attention to i
the campaign inaugurated by Her- I
bert Hoover for the enrollment of j
all women In a great national food I
saving army. The enrollment, he)
says, is to be made, if possible, be
tween July 1 and July 16.
The enrollment is to be made by
women who will sign upon cards
their willingness to eliminate waste
in households and agree to follow
suggestions of the state committee's
department of food supply. Dr.
Scliaeffer's letter asks that all school
boards co-operate with the state
committee and that meetings be
held to further the plan.
Another suggestion is that cards
be left at every home by volunteer
committees and that. where people
are harvesting it be made as soon
after as possible. Co-operation, he
writes, will not only save expense in
administration, but be of vast help
; to the nation.
Child's Arms Cut Off
by Her Father's Reaper
Bloomsburg, Pa., June 29. Hold
ing the stumps of his daughter's arms
for an hour after she had fallen into
the knives of a mowing machine near

The girl, Melba, six, was playing in
a hayfield and In running to her father
as he was driving the machine she fell
in front of the knives, which severed
both arms Just below the elbows. It

jfather stopped the flow of blood by
pinching shut the arteries.

Public Urged to Use*
Stamps of Highest
Denomination as Saving
The public Is urged to use stamps
of highest denomination by Postmas
ter Sites as an economy step.
"As a means of economy postmasters
and post office employes are directed
to encourage the public to use stamps
of the highest denominations suited
to the amount of postage required on
all mail," Mr. Sites says. "For ex
ample, a two-cent stamp instead of
two one-cent stamps should be af
fixed to letters needing two cents
postage; and a ten-cent stamp instead |
of five two-cent should be attached to
parcels requiring ten cents postage.
Cooperation between post office em
ployes and the public in the sale and \
use of stamps of the highest denomi
nation will effect a large saving to
the Government in the cost of produc
ing, transporting and canceling them,
and will benefit the public in minim
izing the number of stamps handled
and affixed to mall. This benefit will
be especially important to business
concerns mailing large quantities of
letters and parcels."
