Five Try For Exemption
The district appeal board conclud
ed Its session yesterday and will not
meet again until next week. Prac
tically all the claims for exemption
from York county No. 1 district,
were acted on yesterday and the ma
jority were turned down. To-day the
names of the men whose claims were
refused, were certified to their local
boards as were the names of the
men from Mifflin, Northumberland,
Juniata and Lebanon. One peculiar
claim from York county was pre
sented to-day to the district board to
bo acted on at its next session. The
young man claimed exemption on in
dustrial grounds, but an Investiga
tion disclosed some startling facts.
This young man when tirst called
for examination by his local board,
stated that he was a member of a
religious sect opposed to war, and
being an ardent member could not
conscientously fight He later stated
that he thought that he was physic
ally unfit for service. Both these
claims were dented and the young
man apparently slated for tho Army.
However, on September 15, he sur
prised his community by getting
married, and tho day after surprised
the local board by appearing and
filing a claim for exemption on the
grounds of a dependent wife. The
local board after hearing this claim
turned it down, and once more the
young man was scheduled to leave
for Camp Meade. Again, however, he
fooled the board. He suddenly dis
covered that working on a farm had
Its good features as well as a city
Job, so he immediately filed a claim
on agricultural grounds. Judging
from the manner in which the dis
trict board has been acting on the
agricultural claims this young man
from York county will journey with
the next contingent to Camp Meade, j
The Steelton board to-day resumed
examination and 100 men were smn-j
moned to appear. The board stated!
that only twelve men will be sent
away Saturday morning instead of
twenty-four as was first announced.
The board was informed by Colonel I
Frank G. Sweeney that the accom-|
modations at Camp Meade could only
house the five per cent, called. The 1
twelve men will report at 9 o'clock
to-morrow morning to receive final
instruction. They will leave Steel
ton at 8 o'clock Saturday morning
and after attending a demonstration
here in their honor they will de
part on tho special train at 11.50.
C. C. Cumbler, chairman of the ex
amination board, and Walter Keister,
also of the board, will Journey to
Camp Meade with the boys.
The Paxtang board has received
from the district board the total cf
190 nam**, of the men that have been
certified lor service. Seventeen of
these men had their claims for ex- 1
emption denied by the upper board,!
leaving 173 to make up the quota of
199 required from this district. How
ever, tho upper board has a list of
many more claims from the Paxtang
district that are yet to be acted on.'
One thousand, one hundred and
sixty-seven men were examined by
this hoard, and when the final re
ports are received from the district
board it is expected that the quota I
will be filled and no more men call-,
ed for examination. This board has!
called ten men to report to-morrow |
morning at 9 o'clock to receive their
instruction and prepare to leave for;.
Camp Meade on Saturday morning.
An Austrian appeared at the head- !
quarters this morning and asked to
be allowed to file a claim foi; exemp- j
tion. He was late in making the
plea but in all probability will be
allowed. He was undecided as to
what grounds he would make a
claim. He said that he was strongly
opposed to militarism and that three
times he had been rejected in Aus
tria as unfit for service 1n the army. :
He was passed as fit by the local pliy- ,
sicians. He continued to state that
he had four brothers alreadv fight- i
ing for Austria. If his claims for ;
exemption are refused he will make
an appeal to the district board.

THURSDAY EVENING,
LUTHERANS OBSERVING
FIVE ANNIVERSARIES
[Continued from First Page.]
The REV. D. B. SMITH, of Easton, I
Speaker at This Evening's Anniver
sary Service
different bodies, Lutherans in Ameri
ca will be known as the United
Lutheran Church in America.
The doctrinal basis of the propos
ed body is found in seven sections of
Article 2. The doctrine of the church
is set forth as follows:
Constitution
Section 1. The United Lutheran
Church in America receives and
holds the canonical Scriptures of the i
Old and New Testaments as the in- I
spired Word of God, and as the only j
infallible rule and standard of faith |
and practice, according to which all I
doctrines and teachers are to be j
judged.
Section 2. The United Lutheran
Church in America accepts the three
ecumenical creeds: namely, the
Apostles', the Nicene, and the
Athanasian, as important testimonies
drawn from the Holy Scriptures,
and rejects all errors which they
condemn.
Section 3. The United Lutheran
Church in America receives and
holds the Unaltered Augsburg Con
fession as a correct exhibition of the
faith and doctrine of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church, founded upon the
Word of God; and acknowledges all
churches that sincerely hold and
faithfully confess the doctrines of
the Unaltered Augsburg Confession
to be entitled to the name of Evan
gelical Lutheran.
Section 4. The United Lutheran
Church in America recognizes the
Apology of the Augsburg Confession
the Smalkald Articles, the Large
and Small Catechisms of Luther,
and the Formula of Concord, as in
the harmony of one of tho same
pure Scriptural faith.
Artcle 111. Principles of
Organization
In accordance with the foregoing
Doctrinal Basis, Tho United Lu
theran Church in America sets forth
and declares the following principles
as fundamental to its organization:
Section 1. All power in the
Church belongs primarily and ex
clusivcly to our Lord and Saviour
farewell reception to be given to the
boys on Saturday morning. The com
ch'irge have appointed
Thomas Numbers, a member of the
aV n . R 'v as chief marshal, and W.
M. Oglesby as chief of staff. A pa
rade will be held and will follow the
same route taken by the previous
parades. Nearly all the reorgani
zations who marched before have
signified their intention of doinc so
again. "
Th e Steelton and Paxtang contin
gents will gather in the same places
as before and it is possible that Lite
Eiizabethville boys will get to Har
risburg in time to join in the pa
rade. There are twenty-nine voun
men to leave with this contingent
Jesus Christ, the Head of the
Church. This power is not dele
gated to any man or body of men.
Section 2. All just power exer
cised by the Church has been com
mitted to her for the furtherance of
the Gospel through the Word and
sacraments, and is conditioned by
this end and pertains to her as the
servant of Jesus Christ. The Church,
therefore, has no power to bind the
conscience except as she teaches
what her Lord tenches and faithfully
commands what He has charged her
to command.
Section 3. Congregations are the
primary bodies through which power
committed by Christ to the Church
is normally exercised.
Section 4. In addition to tho pas
tors of churches, who are ex officio
representatives of their congrega
tions the people have the right to
choose representatives from their
own number to act, for them under
such consitutional limitations as the
l congregations may approve,
i SWtion 5. Tho representatives of
congregations convened in Synod and
acting in accordance with their
constitution are, for the ends de
fined in it representatively the con
gregations themselves, and have the
right to call and set apart ministers
for the common work of all the con
gregations; whose representatives
they thereby become, and as such
I also members of the Synod.
| Section 6. Congregations repre
sentatively constituting the various
Synods may elect delegates through
those Synods tp represent them in a
general body, all decisions of which,
when made in accordance with the
constitution, bind so far as the terms
of mutual agreement t make them
binding, those congregations and
Synods which consent to be repre
sented in the general body.
Section 7. In the formation and
administration of a general body, the
Synods may know and deal with
each other only as Synods. In all
such cases, the official record is to
| be accepted as evidence of the doc
! trinal position of each Synod and of
| the principles fqr which alone the
other Synods are responsible by con
nection with It.
Five ministers were ordained and
i three were granted license to preach
jat the services last evening. The
young men were Alfred T. SutclifTe,
May town; Robert T. Wolfe, Harris
burg; Charles G. Bowers. Philadel
phia; Paul W. Quay, Phoenixville;

seller, Philadelphia. The Rev. Dr.
H. C. Alleman, of Gettysburg Semi
nary, delivered the ordination ad
dress.
The convention took the following
action, presented in the form of a
resolution:
Resolved. That the East Pennsyl
vania Synod hereby pledges unswerv
ing loyalty to our Government and
I country in the great war in which we
| are now engaged for the purpose of
I defending our national honor and re
; establishing international.law and or

WOMEN CAN WORK
IN CARS AT NIGHT
Opinion Given by Deputy At
torney General in Refard
to Their Employment
Deputy Attorney General Collln3
to-day Informed Lew R. Palmer,
chief of the bureau of factory inspec
tion of the Department of Labor and
Industry, that employment of fe
males over twenty-one years of age
as car cleaners between 10 p. m. and
6 a. m. is not unlawful. The only
provision In the law relative to hours
is for women engaged in manufac
turing establishments and car clean
ing. which is not being taken over
largely by women because of men
being called to war, is not in that
class. Mr. Collins says that c.iro
must be taken to see that hours ot
work per week, sanitary safeguards,
intervals of rest and other provisions
are observed.
Mr. Collins also informed Mr. Pal
mer that the State of Pennsylvania
had authority to enforce the child
labor law on ferryboats plying on tho
Delaware between Philadelphia and
Camden. Ho. holds tliat "until the
Federal government assumes exclu
sive control in the matter of the em
ployment of children engaged in
working for interstate * carriers, a
state is not without authority to exer
cise its police power to regulate such
employment upon a boat engaged in
interstate commerce while plying on
waters within the jurisdiction limits
of the state where such control is
not one regulatory of commerce."

live years and I have gone Into them
with care. Col. Beary's rating ts of
the highost and from what I have
learned he is one eminently fitted
for the office and to command men,"
said the Governor. "I have been In
frequent consultation with Col.
Beary on militia and departmental
matters since General Stewart's |
death and .have been impressed with |
his grasp of military affairs."
Col. Beary, who served in the
Spanish War, is a native of Pennsyl
vania and entered the Fourth Regi
ment as a private in 1888 and rose
to the rank of major. He became
deputy adjutßnt general In 1912.
When the Pennsylvania troops were
ordered to the border last year,
Col. Beary remained at his post in
stead of accompanying his regi
ment at the urgent request of Gen
eral Stewart and also remained here
when the troops were called to
federal service. Ho was offered
commands in the new National
Army, but in response to desires of
General Stewart declined them.
An important work carried on by
Col. Beary during his career was
the development of rifle practice to
which he has given much attention
and to the study of military prob
lems. To his personal interest and
energy was due the taking up of
many matters which placed the
Guard in the situation which it is
tc*.day. 0
During the Porto Rico campaign
in which Col. Beary was then in the
Fourth he was in charge of subsist
ence of the troops in, South Porto
Rico, gaining invaluabfe experience.
