Benefit For Association Will
Be Staged at Fourth and
Seneca Next Week
The week of September 17 the plot
at Fourth and Seneca streets will be
occupied by the Veteran Volunteer
Firemen's Association carnival.
The affair has been under consid
eration for some time,, but it has
been very lately that conditions have
adjusted themselves so that the
members of the association could
continue their plans. With the let
ting of the contract for the amuse
ment features to the Greater Shees
ley Shows all is practically settled
with the exception of the merest de
tails, which aro. easily attended to
tiie week of the carnival.
At a special meeting of the execu

Lemons Whiten the j
Skin Beautifully!
| Make Cheap' otion
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white makes
a whole quarter pint of the most re
markable lemon skin beautifler at
about the cost one must pay for a
small jar of the ordinary cold
creams. Care should be taken to
strain the lemon juice through a lino
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then
this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and re
move such blemishes as freckles, sal
lowness and tan, and is the ideal
skin softener, smoothener and beau
tiller.
Just try it! Make 1 p a quarter pint
of thifi sweetly fragrant lemon lotion
and massage it dally into the face,
neck..arms and hands. It should na
turally help to whiten, soften, fresh
en, and bring out the hidden roses
and beauty of any skin. It is won
derful for rough, red hands.
Your druggist will sell three ounces
of orchard white at little cost, and
anv grocer will supply the lemons.—

CARNIVAL HERE
Chamber of Commerce Op
posed to Show For Benefit
of Firemen Without Tax
The request that the Sheesley
shows be permitted to operate in this
city for a week in the interest of the
I
Veteran Volunteer Firemen's Asso
ciation without payment of the reg
ular license fees is being strenuously
opposed by the Ilarrisburg Chamber
of Commerce.
It was the intention of a commit
tee appointed by the firemen to re
quest that the license fees be! sub
stantially reduced or entirely omitted,
since the carnival is to appear here
in the interest of a charitable or
ganization. The Sheesley Carnival
Company is one of the largest con
cerns of its kind in the country. The
regular license fees, it is said, would
amount to about SSOO.
Says 'lt 'ls Unfair
The Chamebr of Commerce main
tains that it is unfair to merchants
and other taxpayers to permit the
carnival company to show in the city
without charging the customary
license. There aro many demands
for special contributions at this time.
Including appeals from charitable
and religious organizations, and with
the mounting cost of living an op
portunity for extravagance should
not be provided unless the city is to
receive something in return, it is
pointed out.
The matter of police protection is
another matter deserving special con
sideration in this connection, busi
ness men say. Carnivals not infre
quently leave a. series of law vio
lations and crime in their wake, and
special police are required to handle
the crowds, it is said. Additional
demands Should not be made upon
the police department unless license
fees are received to offset the ex
pense involved, it Is claimed.
Noncupative Will Is
Filed and Letters Issued
Register Itoy C. D'anner to-day ad
mitted to probate the "nuncupative"
will of Mrs. Sarah J. Hill, late of 1727
Green street, and issued letters of ad
ministration to a brother, James Pen
nell, 1625 Nolth Sixth street.
This Is the third will of its kind
to be filed since Register IJflnner has
held the office. Under the law any
one owning personal property and
who has not made a written will
may make a verbal one during a seri
ous Illness. This must be filed how
ever, and proper affidavits made by
witnesses within six <luya after the
death of the owner of the property.
No real esta,te can be bequeathed in
this manner, however. The value of
the Hill estate is estimated at $3,500,
of which S4OO is personal property.
I-etters of administration in the
estate of George F. Watt, lati> presi
dent of the Elliott-Fisher Company,
were issued to Ills widow, Mrs. Gert

A Quarter's Worth
By HILDEGAUDE HAWTHORNE
(Written For "Our Boys In France Tobacco Fund.")
EDITOR'S NOTE. —This newspaper will receive contributions to
pay for tobacco for the soldiers. Each dollar pays for four pack
ages, with a total retail value of SI.BO In each package is placed a
postcard bearing the name and address of the contributor. The soldier
receiving the package agrees to send a message on the card to his un
known friend back home You get your thanks from an American
soldier in the trenches.
A quarter's worth will keep one
of them happy a week.
That's what I was told.
"Happy?" 1 queried, for a picture
came to my mind, and I found It
impossible to tit happiness in with
that picture.
But it is an ancient axiom that
everything is relative. A cessation of
agony is happiness, even whore that
is the sole blessing, at least for the
swooning moment of peace. And so
it Is that one of them can be happy
—relatively—on a quarter's worth
for a whole week.
Sometimes it seems to us that it
takes a great deal to Induce happi
ness. Worry must vanish, weariness
slip away, love must be close and
beauty, and tenderness, and hope
and *
And out there In the trenches it
takes only a quarter's worth of to
bacco, and that lasts a week.
Something of all this must have
been in my voice, for my Informant
laughed.
"Sounds absurd maybe, but have
you over seen a tired man relax with
a pipe and pipeful of tobacco? That's
what they are out there mostly—
tired, half crazy .with fatigue and
with the noise. And then if a chance
to rest comes and they can get a
smoke * • why, I've seen the
lines .in those haggard faces that
were young not so long ago smooth
right out after a pipe. I've heard
two of the boys begin to chuckle
over some incident in tlie day's fight
ing as they puffed at their clgarets
when ten minutes before they were
ready to snarl at a word. And I've
seen a fellow come back Jumpy,
worn, caked with mud, hadn't had
food for the Lorfl knows how many
hours; I've seen him with the bloody
DRAFT TAKING MANK
HELPERS FROM FARMS
[Continued from First Page.]
State Grange, said the proposition
was being taken up by many farm
ers with President Wilson and it Is
hoped that some way will be found
to prevent a great loss to the farmers.
Another big farmer from Middle
town came to the headquarters of
the board late this morning and
voiced his views. He stated that he
was unable to get help and the men
from his two farms tHat were drafted
represented his chief help. The main
cause of his inability to secure help,
according to him, was the fact that
the various industrial plants and con
struction companies were offering
such high wages that it was impos
sible for the farmers to cope with
them. The sum the farmers pay
their help per day is $2.20 and many
pay $2. With the other concerns
paying $3 and $1 per day for ordi
nary labor, it can be easily seen why
men prefer it.
What action the appeal boards will
take upon the matter is a question.
To date the farmers as a whole have
failed to help the appeal board in the
matter, and in many instances It has
been proved ttiat men have taken to
farming in order to avoid being
drafted.
The idea of the farmers In sub
mitting the proposition to President
Wilson is to secure equitable distri
bution of labor, in order that farm
ing may be? carried on Just the same
as before the draft army was called.
The outcome is awaited with interest
by the farmers of Dauphin county,
ltonrd to Meet Monday
The appeal board has orftctlcril'v
completed the list of men who are
to leave Dauphin county on Septem
ber 19 and 20 with the first contln
pent of the national draft army and
will send them baclt to the local
boards to-day or to-morrow. When
thi- list is finished preparations will
be made to have the remainder of
thr claims ready for the meeting of
the board Monday.
By speedy work during the past
few days the Steelton board has com
pleted the list of the names of the
men who are to leave that district
next Thursday, has sent out the pink
ond green tickets and has nearly fin
ished making out the new shaped
registration cards. Tip to a few days
ago this board was a little behind
some of the other boards, but to-day
it has retrieved itself and Is now In
a position where the situation can be
handled very easily. " ie necessary
45 per cent, has been secured and all
the men will leave that district
Thursday.
May Call Vp to a Thousand
Whether or not this board wilt
have to call many more men is a
matter of uncertainty. No board in
this district has-had the variety of
men to deal with. Aliens have been
examined in large numbers, as
colored men. If this board is able
tc send men who have claimed ex
emption on the gorunds of having
dependants in Europe to Camp
Meade, the entire quota of 255 men
will be practically assured. If not.

include those from 917 to 1000.
Already this board has received
from the appeal board the certifica
tion of 248 men. Of these a large
number are colored, but It is now cer
tain that 114 eligibles will leave that
district next Thursday. The pink cards
have been sent out to everyone and
these men will report at headquar
ters next Tuesday at 9 o'clock, and
from that time on will be under mili
tary rule and subject to call any
minute. The green cards that have
been sent out ask the men to be In
readiness at a mordent's call and to
fix up all their business affairs.
Pnxtang Has Quota I toady
The Paxtang board has secured its
full quota. This was made known
by the chairman of that board this
morning. Ninety-five men have been
certified and this is five more than
is necessary. Those who have per
sonally asked this board to be al
lowed to go among the first will be
given preference. The pink and
green tickets have been sent out by
tbsi board and everything is in readi
ness for next Thursday. After the
examinations on Monday the board
will confine its work to cleaning up
the matter of exemption claims. It
was learned to-day that it lsvalmost
a certainty that a fifth call of SOO
men will be made after the board
ha* acted on the exemption claims.
The full quota of 199 men is not
expected to be attained out of the
first Ipur calls. Yesterday and to
(laji, this board called 100 men for
examination, and there remains only
fifty more to finish the examination
of the last 300 men.

The Elizabethvllle board to-day re
ported the examination of 76 men
to-day. Of this number 48 passed,
27 were discharged and 15 asked no
exemption. This board has sent out
the pink and green tickets to 3 7 men
and by the first of next week ex
pats to have the full 4 5 per cent,
ready to leave for Camp Meade on
Wednesday. This Is the only board
in Dauphin county that will send its
men away on Septemoer 19. The
board will not examine to-morrow,
but has issued calls for next week.

T. R. IS WHIRLED
5000 FEET ALOFT
BY NEW MOTOR
Colonel First Civilian to Tost
America's Fighting Flying
Machine
Garden City, Long Island, Sept.
L 4 Roosevelt rode behind a
Liberty motor to-day 5,000 feet
above the spires of the Cathedral
City, at a 100-mile an hour clip. He
is said to be the first civilian to learn
by experience the power of the en
gine on which the United States re
lies for air supremacy in the war.
From other sources it was learned
that the colonel was profoundly im
pressed by the great motor. After
his trip, which lasted more than half
an hour, he told friends that the
future of the air service was assured
if it got proper governmental sup
port. He showed the utmost confi
dence in the new standardized ma
chine as a weapon against a nation
which has had the experience of war
to aid its inventory.
Arrives Unheralded nt Meld
Unheralded and almost unrecog
nized, Colonel Roosevelt motored
from Sagamore Hill to the govern
ment aviation field at Mineola. It
was about 9.30 a. m. when he arriv
ed. Sentries presented arms and the
gates swung open with a prompt
ness that convinced those familiar
with the precautions with which this
training field has been hedged that
all arrangements, even to the min
ute of Colonel Roosevelt's arrival,
had been made long beforehand.
The great gray airplane, with its
new, eight-cylinder englnte, was on
the ground. Its new Liberty engine
had arrived only two days before.
Beside it stood its pilot, H. J. Blake
ley, a student officer of the camp.
Colonel Roosevelt watched with in- ]
terest whjle the tuning-up process
showered him with dust and almost
deafened him. He suggested that
He'd like a ride. Blakelfy agreed,
but said he wanted to make a trial
trip first, as the engine had never
been tested in flight.
Gees Up 5,000 Feet
Colonel Roosevelt finally prevailed
upon Blakeley and took his seat be
side him. It seemed but a few sec
onds beforfe the quick-climbing plane
was soaring with the rest of the
flock.
Up to 5,000 feet sped Blakeley
and his passenger. They were In the
midst of the other maneuvering fly
trip at that altitude,
ers. Possibly fearing to risk the
chance of a "blind angle" collision,
such as recently occurred in the
West, Blakeley descended to about
2.000 feet and made the mbst of his
trip at that altitude.
