The Cumberland county recruits, wearing orange identification tags, came last, with Sheesley's carnival band bring ing up the rear. • Everywhere along the way, as the boys made their way down Second street to Boas, and over Third street to Walnut, then on to Market, the crowds were wildly enthusatlc in their farewell. At the steps leading to the State Capitol, the local Red Cross organization was passed in review. When the members of the Rotary Club passed the ladies, eyery head was uncovered. Market Street Packed Along Market street the crowd was the largest, and those who plan ned to watch the parade from some point of vantage and rush to the sta tion entrance at the last moment, were bitterly disappointed. The men of the selected army marched by the regular entrance to the depot, while the marching or ganizations stood at attention. The men were taken byway of the Fifth street entrance to the trainshed. "Goodby, 'Jim,' you make a fine looking soldier," called out a heavy voice from the crowd, as the hoys from the Steelton contingent moved along. "Jim" almost lost step to reply. "Thanks, awfully," he yelled out. "You'd look Just as well by my side to-day, if you hadn't faked the em emption board!" Many persons who failed to secure passes to the trainshed, crowded frantically toward the railing of the depot as the boys marched in. •lolly Crowd A jolly crowd of selected men came from Lewistown. This bunch was in charge of Eagle Childs. While waiting for the arrival of the boys from this district those from Lewis town left their cars and headed by * drummer carrying a toy drum, and two with fifes, marched to Market street. On their return to the car they kept the big crowd in a good humor with their songs. To the tune of "The Old Gray Mare," they used the words "You'll Hear From Us Over in Germany," and "The Stars and Stripes Shall Wave Over Ger many." They were loudly cheered. Many of the conscripts carried grips and suitcases. They were all tagged and as soon as the uniforms are distributed in camp the civilian clothes will be sent back home. Many of the drafted men left their bag gage o"n trucks and when the time came for entraining there was a lively scramble. In charge of the Steelton bunch was "Pat" Reagan the well kn.own athlete and coach. He had a busy time at the station keeping his men lined up. and carride all the official • papers for his bunch. "Pat" was given a great ovation by many of his friends.

Harrisburg Liquor and Gun Gets Him in Trouble Edward A. Furlong, of Coatesville, is sorry that he decided to try a little Harrlsburg liquor. He hadn't taken a drop for more than a year, he told Alderman Landis In court yesterday, and more to the point, he has decided to again take the pledge.

In Pittsburgh he had purchased a revolver for his son.

MANY PRETTY SHADE TREES T< BE PLANTED HEI Besidonts Plan to Add to Comfort of Their Hon* With Selected Stock Many residents of Harrlsburs planning- to enhance the value their properties and add to the ci fort of their homes by the additioi shade and street trees. Planting will soon be under n and It Is Important that the yarle best suited to Harrlsburg's cllrr and soil be selected. In this com tlon. many Important matters she be taken Into consideration. While there Is a large list of ti suited to Harrlsburg's climate soil, selections should not be m without study. Two varieties t should not be planted are the Cl lina poplar and the silver maple first because of Its short life and l sistent tendency to send its r< out In search of water causing tr ble with sewers, raising paveme etc. The sliver maple, because of brittleness, does not stand up i under wind and snow. Those Suitable The following varieties are sp: dldly suited to Harrlsburg's ollnr and soil: Oriental plane, Amerl linden, European linden, Amerl elm, Norway maple, ash-leaved : pie, red maple, pin oak, red oak, si let oak, white oak, white ash, h< chestnut, tulip trees, glngko, cata The most Important thing to < slder in the selection of varieties street planting is to adopt a var that is now dominant on the st lr. question, provided It is a good and suitable. The suitability is termined largely by the width of street. Narrow streets should I the more upright growing trees, s as glngko, pin oak, ash, tulip plane. For the wide street, the is more especially adapted than of the other varieties in the al list. The best tree planting in Tlar burp - is to be found at Clov Heights, said an official of the Be hill Nursery Company, In discusi the subject of tree planting. I the streets are planted each T one variety, thus securing a bea ful uniform effect which is sufficl ly mature to show the value of careful handling. Bellevue Pari another good example of the pre selection. The size of the tree to plant pei'ds much on the environment i rounding the tree. If it is to occ a location on a paved street wit paved sidewalk and simply a si hele cut in the paving for ventila and water the smaller tree, eigh ten feet high, will take hold rr more quickly and grow more vi| ously and Into a better tree tha larger size. If there is a grass five to six feet wide, a larger may be planted, say twelve to fi tten feet high. Very large trees to thirty or forty feet high twelve to twenty inches in diam are successfully moved and at a i ing of many years of waiting, these are trees to be located o lawn or open apace where the has plenty of opportunity of o' coming the shock In the securlnf air ventilation and water to the re Trees should be planted about fj feet apart, this distance to i either way so as to make them si uniformly within the block or p erty-llne area.
