10 SAVAGES BABIES COMPARED WITH GERMAN ARMY Even Darkest Africa Is Glad! to Escape Grip of The Hun The aroma of the vast South Afri- | ca veldt, the cry of the savage in, his lonely path, the mysterious fasci- I nation of the Dark Continent, per- j vaded Harrisburg last night, when | J. 11. Balmer, a noted English travel-! er introduced to an audience of 1,000 | at Stevens Memorial Church his] Kafir singing boys. Hiss Klsie Clark, a gifted Africander young lady, and himself, gave a wonderful*" interest ing talk on his work. The entertain ment was a tributo to the enterprise of the Rev. Clayton Albert Smucker, for the Kalmer travel-talk is an ex pensive offering, anil most unique. It became famous even in Africa and England before being brought to this country. Queen Mary inviting the company to her palace, and the hous es of parliament extending them a greeting. The platform last"* night looked | like a Zula war camp or hunting | lodge, with a background of leopard j and springbok skins, knob kerries j and assagais. There were live races I represented, even one lowly Hotten-j tot contributing to the entertain-1 ment. Just as interesting was Miss! Clark, a native of Rhodesia, thej great country opened up by Cecil: tthodes, who lies ' uried there in the | Matoppo Hills. Miss Clark was press- j ed by Dr. Smucker to also speak, j and she told a thrilling tale of her trip from Cape Town, in which she' saw or knew of fifteen ships being destroyed along the route. In London I the first night a German airship bombed the house she was staying in, killing seven people. Mr. Balmer, whos< life work has been to help the natives of Africa. Biiid his respects vigorously to the Germans, who have just lost ten bil lions dollars' worth of possessions in Africa. Turing to the Zulu on the stage he said, "before I went to Afri ca. I heard horrible stoHes of these folk, but I found that compared to the Germans they are babies in arm. Everybody in Africa is so glad that the Germans are ousted. There are enough savages there without them." He expressed his gratitude to Ameri ca for coming into this war, as did a Is-> Miss Clark. She was at sea when the news came and she described the wild delight of passengers of all na tions upon hearing that America would help. "The only thing to re- j grot," she added, "is that America did not come in sooner. Then Russia! might not have backed out." Say Hershey Company Does Not Protect Power Lines The first complaint to be made by a telephone company that a traction company was not prnperly guarding power transmission wires was filed at tlie Public Service Commission to-day by* the South Annville RHral Tele phone Company, operating in the; western end of Lebanon county. It claimed that the Hershey Transit Company had not complied with an | order of the Commission issued May 19. 1917, in regard to certain wires along what is known as the "Horse shoe" Road. The' Commission is asked to make an order for protection of the wires. Use McNeil's Pain Exterminator —Ad.

Strouse SATURDAY EV MANY JOIN RED CROSS BEFORE DRIVE BEGINS Out-of-Town Auxiliaries Are Awake to Needs of the Great Campaign Inquiries began to reach Red Cross headquarters this morning from Christmas savings fund depositors who asked whether they could secure membership now or would have to wait until the Christinas drive begins, December 17. The reply was that memberships can be secured at any time, and in consequence a rush of the Christmas depositors is expected. The out-of-town auxiliaries to Har risburg Chapter of the Red Cross have adopted as their motto in the forthcoming membership campaign a motto pre-empted some time ago by Governor Brumbaugh. "When it is finally settled that the thing is impossible—watch some fel low do it." The twenty-seven towns in which auxiliaries to the local chapter ex ist are out to secure more members in proportion to their populi*ion than Harrisburg itself will procure. The total for the entire district is 38,000. At this time the twenty-seven auxiliaries have in the neighborhood of .1,000 members. They hope more than to triple that figure. Bov Scouts Will Aid All Boy Scouts in the city of Har risburg and surrounding towns have proffered their services in the Christ mas drive which begins December 17. In the tirst Red Cross campaign their efforts were remarkably suc cessful. Boys' brigade organizations have also agreed to help. The wires last night carried the news that the American Red Cross has sent two complete army hospital units to Halifax. N. S„ to aid the suf ferers there. This is cited as an ex ample of what the organization is do ing in France at this time. What Was Done With Money? The question has been asked: What became of the $100,000,000 war fund raised by the Red Cross? Here is the answer: "Commissions have been sent to all the allied countries; supplies are be ing sent to 3,423 French military hospitals; each day 30,000 soldiers arc served at canteens in France; the children of thousands of French and Belgian refugees are being cared for: warehouses with a capacity of 100.- 000 have been established in France; a sanitarium lor 1,000 tuberculosis patients lias been established: exten sive relief\vork is being carried on in Belgium; an ambulance service is be ing operated which transports 1.000 refugees daily; 6,000,000 pints of milk have been furnished Russian baliies; J 1,000.000 has be?n furnish ed the families of sick and wounded French soldiers: $1,000,000 has been given the British Red Cross. . And the statement of the Red Cross ends with this striking para graph; , ' ~, "And we have only just begun. Chairman Jennings of the local campaign committee said this morn ing that his district would assuredly repeat previous successes. "Intense rivalry exists among the towns outside of Harrisburg," he said. "We'll 'go over the top" in this campaign just as surely as we did in others." VETEIIANS TO MEET The City Grays Veteran Associ ation and " ex-members of Company D and I are requested to meet at the Courthouse on Tuesday evening.

NING, U.S. WILL SMASH GERMAN LINES IN EARLY SPRING Teachers Are Told by Con gressman Fcss of America's" Part in the World War "When Zimmermann wrote the note to the German representative 'in Mexico, he perpetrated the most barbarous intrigue ever attempted by one nation on another," declared Congressman S. D. Fess before the city teachers this morning in the Technical High school auditorium. "America has been forced into this war by Germany and our women must keep their hands busy and the men at home must back up those who have gone to the front. With hold your criticism when you do not understand the steps the government is taking. The big thing is to unite our own people and win the war," said the speaker. His declarations I were frequently applauded by the an- j dlence that was augmented by many visitors who desired to hear the dls-; tinguished Oh loan speak on "The ternationul Situation As It Is To-1 day." "In the spring we shall be strong er than ever. France and England, will be hitting the German line all winter, and Germany will have less food. America will push her two mil- I lion men into the lield. They will be | preceded by the greatest air fleet the I world has ever seen. Photographers I will be 7,000 feet in the air making maps and sketches of the German trenches and fortifications while the fighting squadron will be 11,000 feet in the air. We can control the air, and can build air ships as fust as automobiles. One firm has contract ed to build twenty-five airplanes a day. "Germany's plan in pushing for ward the U-boat campaign was to crush England and France by April 1," said Dr. Fess. "Then with Mexico harassing our southern border, and Japan as an ally of Germany, work ing on the western coast, Germany would come across to the Atlantic coast with English, French and Ger man lleets, and sack and pillage as It pleased. "We have gone jys far as we dare with Japan: we must not offend her," was his warning with respect to our eastern neighbor. Explaining the reason for Congress i voting war, he stated that it was I the only way to uphold national hon or and national safety. It was point ed out that in an interview with Gerard, the kaiser said: "Germany will not trifle with America." Ger-, many will hold the death of every soldier killed by shells tnade in thej United States, as done by America. , Dr. Fess told his uuditors that he spoke not of hearsay evidence, but as one with first hand information as a member of the committee to investi gate the complaints of Germany and Great Britain. "The only thing that lay between Germany and the United States was Great Britain and France. If we must fight Germany, we will fight now, and not when the kaiser is ready," said the Congressman. Germany discounted international law when she put the U-boat cam paign into effect. It was by this means that they hoped to force Eng land to its knees. "Unity will prevail in Germany until their troops are pushed back on their own soil. The loss of men is the only hurt she has, because of fighting on the allies' territory. Once they are driven back on their own soil, internal troubles alone will be sufficient to overthrow Germany. We must build ships as fast as they can sink them. We have appropriated one and a half billions for ships, and when the war is ended we shall have the greatest nv •chant marine the world ever saw," lid the speaker. Dr. Fess was : heduled to speak at last night's institute, but because of the vote being taken on the Aus tro-Hungarian situation was prevent ed from coming until a very late hour last night. The other speaker was Dr. Frank P. Graves, of thel> University of Pennsylvania. Dr. A. Duncan Yocum, from the same insti tution spoke last evening on the topic, "Education and the War." Secretary D. D. Hanimelbaugh ad dressed the teachers on the matter of sale of Red Cross stamps. Superin tendent Downes announced the next institute for January 26. Randall J. Condon, superintendent of the Cin cinnati school, and Dr. W. C. Bagley, of Columbia University, will be the speakers. Comparatively Little Activity on the Meuse By Alssociatcrf Press Paris, Dec.

STORM-SWEPT CITY FACES FOOD FAMINE [Continued from First Page.] * \ Sympathy For Canada Wired by President Washington, D. C., Dec. 8. —■ President Wilson sent to the Governor General of Canada yes tenday an expression of sympathy of the people of the United States because of the disaster at Halifax. His telegram follows: "In presence of the awful dis aster at Halifax the people of the United States offer to their noble brethren of the Dominion their heartfelt sympathy and grief, as is litting at this time when to the ties of kinship and community of speech and of material in terests are added the strong bonds of union in the common cause of devotion to the supreme duties of the national existence." V the actual losses and the •■sstiim.ted cost of temporary maintenance will approximate $30,000,000. Perhaps the most serious of the mi<ny problems to be met is the food situation. There is enough food in the city for immediate needs but unless communication is opened soon, the city faces the possibility of famine. The energies of loonl tc lief committees have been -entered on the conservation of food aod merchants have surrendered all their available supplies for the common need. Milk is almost un obtainable and fears are exp-essed for the lives of babies in arms un less an adequate supply is assured from outside sources. In the greater task of caring for the living, no concerted effort is being made to compile a list of the dead but hundreds of soldiers, sailors, American "jackies" and vol unteers are grouping under the mass of wreckage searching for bpdies. The morgues are choked with mangled bodies, many of whom probably never will be identilied. Police officials still estimate tl e dead at 2,000 and the injured at 3,000 and more. Wounded Arc Everywhere At all hospitals, regular and im provised, every available spot is oc cupied by tlie wounded. In addi tion to the Nova Scotia General and Camp Hill hospitals and the infir mary, the Y. M. C. A., Knights of Columbus building, St. Paul's Hall and public places have been con verted into temporary hospitals. Doctors and nurses have worked un ceasingly since the first hours of the explosion with little or no aleep. The Academy of Music, the the aters and halls of fraternal organ izations have been thrown open to care for the homeless. The city clerk's office is the official head quarters for lists of the dead and missing. The spontaneous action of the United States in offering aid has awakened a new bond of sympathy between the two peoples. Relief also has been promised from every town in Nova Scotia and from all parts of Canada. Sir Robert Bor den, the prime minister, arrived here yesterday and has placed all the resources of the dominion gov ernment at the disposal of the city. Explosion Greater Than Any in War Zone, Says Montreal Star By Associated Press Montreal, Dec. 8. —The tremen dous force exerted by the explosion that destroyed the northern half of Halifax is said by the correspon dent of the Montreal Star to have been greater, probably than any explosion in the war zone. Debris from shells, steel plates and shrapnel have been found over an area of ten square miles, with a five-mile ra dius. Two American vessels, one of them a naval cruiser, were forty-five miles offshore making for port at the mo ment of the catastrophe. The shock was so great that the chief officer of the warship believed at first, the Star correspondent says, that the cruiser had struck a mine. Then, seeing an other vessel on the horizon, he con cluded he had been tired upon. At Sydney, 200 miles distant in an airplane, the shock was like that oC a severe earthquake. Windows in i the Hotel Learinont at Truro, more i than sixty miles away,were broken ; and a clock was shaken from the wall of the train dispatchers' office. | A barn at Meagher's Grant, thirty five miles from Halifax, was liftec! 1 from its foundations as though th work had been done by an exper l | building mover. 4,000 Are Dead in Halifax, Is Report From Amherst Amherst, N, S., Dec.
