TOBACCO WILL HELP YANKEES ; WIN THE WAR Keep the Fighters Happy and German Line Must Crumble When you come to the end of a per fect day, And you're due for a sudden hunch, Do you sometimes think of a royal jay Whose jaw you would like to punch ? Do you sometimes think of the joy it would bring— And last you a whole long week, To just wind up for a right hand swing And land on the Kaiser's beak? Well, this is the end of a perfect day— With nobody round to stop; To get your teeth in the Kaiser's enr And your knee irt the Kaiser's crop; To get your thunms in a loving way On the back of the Kaiser's neck. While the sun goes down with a flaming ray. And lights up the royal wreck. We suspect that our friend the poet. "Brainless Bates" is no pa cifist. Judging by the trend of his written thoughts he would make meat out ot" Kaiser Bill whether the day was perfect or down below zero with the steam pipes frozen and the milk bottle busted. But he has tho wrong idea. What chance has any one over here to land a right swing on that shifty, slippery old demon? The way to make a royal wreck out of him is to take such good care of Uncle Sam's lighters that the Ger mans will crumble from sheer han kering. Send tobacco. Make the boys happy. Then watch them light. When the Huns see these Yankee toys joyful as a clam in high wa ter, with gobs of good American to bacco, and when they whiff its redol ent aroma drifting on to Berlin they will throw up the sponge. Sounds trifling, but it isn't. Xow that the big drive is about to start—the drive that will tell some thing of what is to be expected from American soldiers, it is more urgent than ever that the soldiers should be contented. In some parts ot' tho country a custom has taken hold whereby four persons contribute 25 cents each, making one dollar. This single bill can readily be tucked in an envelope and sent to u smoke fund headquarters. We are suggest ing a 25-cent contribution because even that small sum will buy quite a respectable tobacco kit. the to bacco people also adding their share to each gift. That is to say each dollar pays for four separate pack ages. with a total retail value of at least SI.BO. Dor.'t bother about getting your knee in the "Kaiser's crop," but get your hand out of your pocket and bring along some contri bution of whatever denomination for this worthy cause. Shippers Ask For Removal of Railway Switching Cost An effort is being made through the Shippers' Official Service Commit tee for Central and Southern Penn sylvania, to get Director General of Railroads MeAdoo to deliver carload shipments to receivers on their own sidings without any extra cost to the shipper, where he has a private sid ing. Under Government supervision, a shipper or receiver may no longer designate what road he wants his shipment to be delivered. Where there is more than one railroad entering a city, receivers of goods having a sid ing on one road, are liable to receive r.otice that their carload shipments have arrived on another road, thus necessitating the expense and delay of transferring their shipments from the railroad siding to their own prop erty. The desire of the Shippers' Com mittee, organized fomf time ago at the suggestion of the Railroad Car Service Committee in the Harrisburg district, is that the railroads in the district relieve the receivers of the burden of transferring their ship ments from one road to their own sid ing on another road. Look to Chinese Cook For 'Ways That Are Dark' The tragedy of live loaves of good wheat bread being cast into the gar bage pail belonging to the Oriental Restaurant. IXS Market street, was greatly modilled to-day, when the proprietor. Ernest I-j. Morrell, put the blame on a Chinese cook. By all ac counts, this cook is full of ways that are curious. When he heard that the employer had engaged another chef to take his place, the celestial cook ordered the porter to put the bread boxes outside, where the zero weather soon ruined the bread for table pur poses. The porter then did his bit by throwing some of the frozen bread into the garbage, thus completing the irreparable waste. RED CROSS COME TO AII> OF SOLDIER WHO LOST TICKET The Home Service Department, of the Harrisburg Chapter. Red Cross, was brought into active use by a sol dier yesterday. The man was en route to his cantonment and lost his ticket. He had sufficient funds to brin.T him to Harrisburg. When he arrived here he asked the Red Cross for aid, and, after a hearty meal fur nished him by the local chapter, he went on his way to the cantonment. The Home Service Department in ably represented by Miss Helen Leib, who has taken a special course at Philadelphia. Miss will be in her office, in the Fager Building headquarters, each Thursday after noon from 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock, ready to render assistance to sol diers and their families. HID RHEUMATISM AND STOMACH TROUBLE "Had Headaches and Dizzy Spells" says Mrs. M. E. Johnson. 14 9 Adams street. Steelton, Pa.
