MAY ABOLISH ALL COMMITTEES School Board to Act on Inno vation at Next Meeting The school board at its first meet ing next month will act on a resolu tion introduced by Director George A. Werner which if passed will mean the abolition of all standing committees of the board. This was une of the chief recommendations in the school survey report and was embodied in the resolution which Werner submitted at yes- MTday's meeting. Because of lack of unanimous con sent to discuss the question the mo tion was laid over for a month. Di rectors C. E. L. Keen. W. Frank Wltman and Harry A. Boyer stated they favored the change. Mr. Boyer also suggested changing the lime of meeting from the afternoon to evening. •The contract for installing a steam 1 heating system in the new Junior i High School at Nineteenth and; Chestnut streets, was awarded to Ed- I win P. Saeger, of Allentown, at a j bid of $53,150.

V Central High Notes ' The question uppermost now in the minds of Central's football squad is "Will there, or will there not be' a banquet?" It has been customary to give a banquet to the football men after the Thanksgiving game. but there is considerable discussion | this year as to whether true pa ! triots should do this. It was an nounced yesterday that no action will be taken until all the football material, suits, etc., are turned over to the manager. Last year there was much difficulty in having, the material returned. Men who had not given back all their equipment were not permitted to attend the banquet at the Senate. Principal Dibble stated that the night of the banquet in the Senate lobby last year three of the squad hailed him and asked to be permitted to have a share in the "eats" as they had just returned their suits. As it was in the evening and Central's doors were locked they had thrown their football material over the office transom. They were permitted to join in the fun at the Senate. How ever, that will not occur this year, as all material must be in before any fun will be planned. ftoys to Debate Two boys' debating teams will be formed at Central in the near future to take part in the triangle debate which is being arranged between Reading, Altoona and Central. While one of Central's teams is debating at Reading or Altoona the other will be engaged in debate here with an opposing team. Last year Central was engaged in only one debate. The boys' team was defeated and the girls defeated the York team. Cen tral won a trophy at State College for their excellent work in debating two years ago. A girls' team will be organized in the near future. Clans Dance Success Under the direction of the pres ident, Stuart Wagner, and the sec retary'.

MACK'S "" : omc, !B ! 310 MARKET STRUCT HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH LITTLE OPERA SCORES SUCCESS ; Amateur Production of "Out r Somewhere" Delights Large Audience Last Evening i 1 By JOHN W. PHILLIPS War, and .he effects of war, caused' ' no heartaches last night at the Or -1 pheuni Theater, but rather brightened • our lives for a brief two hours, in stilled a little more patriotism into us, and gave us a glimpse of happy ! youth, singing, dancing and making | merry, and with good reason, for I the war began and ended while we sat 'at attention. There were no sordiJ scenes; everything was bright, happy and picturesque. Simple country life and customs were ingeniously re flected in speech, song and dance. "Out Somewhere" is listed as a mili tary operetta: it is not very strongly military, but it is wholesome, clever, catchy, tuneful and colorful. It is essentially an operetta for young folks. It breathes the spirit of young life that does not take responsibilities too seriously. The music is well fitted to the words, and there is more orig inality in the melodies than one tinds in most light \Vorlcs of this kind. The work was exceedingly well put on last night by Mrs. Lake and her capa- I ble company of Harrisburgers. It is worth the price of admission to have I Harrlsburg's youth and beauty a.s --j sembled so nicely, so we can see it, I and appreciate it. There were nearly three hundred | thus assembled, all there with the idea of making a success of the un j dertaking,—and they did. It is some j Job to take a miscellaneous "crowd" of young folks and weld them into a singing chorus, but it was achieved with gratifying success. Prlnelpnln Well Cnnt The principals were well cast. Mrs. Roy G. Cox, as Clarice, the prettiest girl in town, sustained the part with much grace and charm, wl\ile vocally adequate to all the musical demands. She has good poise, and was attrac tively dressed in bright red and white —very becoming, indeed. Paul Miller, as Sergeant Leroux, made a good looking soldier and carried his part through to .success. George Sutton as Jean was very satisfactory in every thing he had to do, both vocally and dramatically, making an ideal lover |at all times. Miss Mary Belle Corbett as Babette was vivacious and whim | sical, and caught the spirit of the role admirably. Abner Hartman, as Pompom, the marvelous man, gave humor and excellent vocal powers to the performance. Mr. Martina nwas well fitted for the part and added many touches of humor that kept things moving in a joyful outdoor spirit. Mrs. Frank Fager, as Martha Michaud, interpreted the village gos sip in a way that showed a careful study of the character. Her contralto voice was used to good advantage In singing and her acting was clev erly done. William Bretz, as Gaspard, the tinker youth, was excellent, both in action and singing. Mis., Kath aiine Dubbs, as Marie the shepherd ess, made a charming picture. She was graceful, modest and winsome. She displayed fine ability both in singing and acting Some of the musical hits: The open ing chorus, with Katharine Dubbs in solo part. Both chorus and soloist were superb In this number, which made a good Impression to start with. "Have You Heard the News?" by Mrs. Fager and chorus was also a winner; the action and music being cleverly handled. The Bakers' chorus, by ten youths cleverly made up and singing "Buy a Loaf"; the chorus by the charming pastry girls; the solo by Mr. Hartman, "I Ant a Marvelous Man", sung with fine freedom and In j terpretation, the chorus helping: "The i Tramp of Soldier Feet," by Mr. Miller | and chorus. Dniirrn anil .Wnrehr* "Citizens, Your Country Culls," by | Mrs. Cox, a stirring -lumber; "Bold and Blustering Soldiers Wo," sung by | the smaller boys very cleverly and later Joined by a group of girls; | "Sweetheart, If I Held the Sun." sung effectively by Mr. Sutton, who also I rrade a good lover: "If Feeling Sad," | by Mrs. Cox; "The Tinker's Song," one of the gems of the work, cleverly in terpreted and sung by Katharine Dubbs and William Bretz, assisted by the chorus: "Weave a Wreath cf Lau rel Green," danced and sung by a group of young ladies (we knew there was something lacking in the dance— it was the wooden shoes); the Knit ting chorus, by .a group of Harris burg's fairest daughters, who were graceful both in dance and song; "Cuddle Down." by Mrs. Cox and the wee ones; this made a charming ap peal to both eye and <ar; "Ths Little ! Baboon." by Miss Corbett, who sang this to the little ones; "In the Merry Summertime," by Katharine Dubbs and the dancing shepherdess; "Goosey, Goosey, Gander," by the Gander girls and a real gander that thought at times there was a rough sea on; "As a Man of My Importance," by Mr. Hartman and chorus; "One Little Bird Built a Cozy Nest," by Miss Corbett and Mr. Sutton. Lots of Words Rhyme | With Love," by Katharine Dubbs. J William Bretz and chorus. William i Webster, although not officially 11st- J ed, sang the "Sandman's Song," while i the little tots were being hustled off j to bed. i All the above were genuine hits ! with the audience, and every one ot j the cast is to be complimented for | the fine portrayal of their respective parts. The costumes were very, very ' attractive and the scenery superb. 1 The Orpheum Theater was filled, the stage was filled and we hope the ! treasury of the Sunshine society is ! also filled, because they deserve it i for giving us such a delightful and I interesting entertainment. All Har ! rlsburg should see It, and, to see it | is to enjoy It thoroughly. Sammy Club 'Do Their Bit' of Knitting For Soldiers The Sammy Knitting Club were guests of Miss Dorothy Crook, of j 1209 % Chestnut street last evening at an informal knitting bee.

Andrew Redmond Vlui and Chandler UNITED STATES IS NOW AT WAR WITH GERMANY'S ALLY State of War Exists From 5.03 Yesterday, When President Signed Declaration SET RECORD IN CONGRESS Meyer London, Socialist Rep resentative From New York, Only Dissenting Voter By Associated Press Washington, Dec. B.—The United States was at war with. Austro-Hun gary to-day as the result of a joint resolution adopted by Congress and approved by President Wilson. The state of war exists from 5.03 p. m. yesterday, the time when the Presi dent signed the declaration and com pletion of the formal steps awaits only the issuance of an executive proclamation. The resolution adopted declares the existence of state of war be tween the Imperial and Royal Aus tro-Hungarian government and the government and people of the Unit ed States" and authorizes the Presi dent to employ the nation's armed forces and pledging its resources to victory. With the resolution out of the way Congress adjourned until next week, the Senate until Monday and the House until Tuesday. ' Interest centered to-day in the President's proclamation which is expected shortly and probably will define the status of Austro-Hungar ian subjects, particularly of those in th e armed forces of the United States. America at last is formally and ac tually at war with Austria-Hungary. President Wilson last night signed the declaration that, with formali ties waived and opposition virtually erased, had been adopted by the Senate and House of Representatives in less than four hours. The decla ration dates from 5.03 p. m., when the President affixed his signature, and from that hour all the resources of the country stand pledged to push the war to a successful conclusion.

Many of the nation's best specialists have given up their well-paying practices for positions in the camps, at $2,000 a year. These men help the boys who are ill, to get back to perfect health. The men in camp are strong and vigorous. "The first soldier who came to the camp reached the place September 5. From that time, the conditions have been spendid, and the men are well eared for. The morale of the soldiers is of the highest order. "Lawyers, physicians, millionaires and paupers work together as pri vates in the camp, and do their work with a will. Praise For Y. M. C. A. "The Y. M. C. A. is doing a great work among the soldiers. One of fhe most amusing sights I saw while at camp was in a Y. M. C. A. for colored men. I was passing by the building when X heard laughter and merrymaking. I looked into the building and saw soldiers seated everywhere, on the rafters, on the windowsills. and everywhere they could find places. They were listen ing to a colored band, led by a col ored entertainer, and they were memorizing the melodies the band men sang and played." The work of examination is not finished in the camp. Dr. Ellenber ger says, but the condition of the boys he has examined is almost per fect. WEI) AT PARSONAGE Miss Belle B. Bogar, 2115 Jefferson street, and Charles E.
