MAY SEIZE COAL
ON WEST SHORE
Administrator Says Fuel on
Railroad Sidings May Be
Taken to Ease Situation
"In order to ease up the coal sit
uation on the West Shore, the ad
ministration intends to seize coal on
Hidings," Robert L. Myers, West
•Shore coal administrator, said to
day. Ih explaining the intentions of
the administration, Mr. Myers said
that they would take cars where it
would not deprive families of fuel.
This will take place in Cumberland
county, it is understood.
Mr. Myers said the situation is un
changed and although there is little
suffering, there are about fam
ilies on the West Shore who have
but a few buckets of fuel in their
bins. This, the administrator says, is
the cause of much anxiety on the
part of the parents and where aged
persons live.
The Camp Hill schools, which were
.scheduled to open this morning, will
not open until Monday, it was an
nounced. School officials were able
to get some coal, but, on the advice
of Mr. Myers, this will be delivered
to fan)ilies who must have fuel to
keep warm. The West Fairview and
l.emoyne schools will also remain
closed until Monday.

Kidney Trouble Not
Easily Recognized
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
An examining physician for one
of the prominent Life Insurance
Companies, in an interview of the
subject, made the astonishing state
ment that one reason why so many
applicants for insurance are reject
ed is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people,
and the large majority of those
whose applications are declined do
not even suspect that they have the
disease.
Judging from reports from drug-
K'*sts> who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is one
preparation that has been very suc
cessful in overcoming these condi
tions. The mild and healing influ
ence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
noon realized. It stands the highest
for its remarkable record of stu
< ess. ' ■ t
Wc find that Swamp-Root is strict
ly an herbal compound and we
v. ould advise our readers who feel
in need of such a remedy to give it
trial. It is on sale at all drug
stores in bottles of two sizes,- medium
end large.
However, it you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents

Accused Murderer to Be

Don't Let Soap
% Spoil Your Hair
When you wash your hair, be care
i ful what you use. Most soaps and
j prepared shampoos contain too much
I alkali, which is very injurious, as
l it dries the scalp and makes the
; hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap, and beats the most ex
pensive soaps or anything else all to
i pieces. You can get this at any drug
1 store, and a few ounces will last
I the whole family for months,
i Simply moisten the hair with
| water and rub it in, about a tea
i spoonful is all that is required. It
makes an abundance of rich,
cieamy lather, cleanses thoroughly,
I and rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh
| looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy
!to handle. Besides, It loosens and
| takes put every particle of dust, dirt
1 and dandruff.

FRANK E. WAGNER
West Fairview, Pa., Jan. 16.
! Frank E. Wagner of West Fairview,
who enlisted in the United States
Army several months ago and Is now
in France, connected with the quar
termaster's department in the Am
-1 erican Expeditionary Forces under
General Pershing, has written a let
ter to his mother, Mrs. Margaret j
Wagner, living here, telling of his
experiences as far as the soldiers are
permitted to send hiforniation out
of France. Before enlisting in the
Army Mr. Wagner was employed at
the Pennsylvania railroad round
house at Enola. His letter follows:
Somewhere in France.
Dear Mother Just a few lines
to let you know that I have arrived
safe in France. The trip over was
great and I will never forget it. For
many days we saw nothing but water
and I commenced to think there was
no more land. I did guard duty the
whole way across, on the bridge of
the boat. We passed through a five
day storm wljich made waves as
high as a house. We received a
warm welcome from the French
people. They threw oranges and
apples on the boat. We are not very i
close to the firing line, so you must]
rtot worry about me. I am writing
this letter at the Y. M. C. A. with
Charlie (Enzer) beside me. When 11
walked up to the counter here to I
get this puper from a young lady we
got to talking and to my surprise I
found out she was from Harrisburg.
We shook hands and had a long
•conversation. Her name is Miss
(Marion B. C.) Watts. She and an
other lady are running the "Y"
here. I am going to try to find
Lin wood (Wanbaugh.) I think he is
close to us. if you wish to send me j
anything send candy or cake. It's I
hard to get here and candy is $1.60 j
a pound. Have not been paid for j
two months. Will send some money j
home as soon as I get some. 1 hope |
you are all well. You may expect uj
letter from me every few days, and j
you know I will be waiting for let-j
ters from home, so write wl enever'
you can. Now, don't worry about!
me for 1 am in the best of health.
Your loving son,
FRANK fi. WAGNER. j

Samuel A. Laßue, a farmer of New
Freedom, York county, said to have
appealed more times than any other
man in the state to keep out of Army
service, to-day is safely in Camp
Meade, the York county draft board
reports.
One of Laßue's dozen appeals was
based on the plea
fighting man, having religious scru
ples against serving in the line, so
he will be placed in one of the non
ccmbative corps.
Laßue's ease has attracted much
attention. He appealed to the Adju
tant General, the Governor, the Pres
ident, the local and district draft
boards several times. He was finally
sent to camp with thirty-two other
York county men to make up the
deficiency in the York county quota.

mistic indeed must be the man who
will say a single without addi
tional support. With Italy under the
heel of the conqueror, with Frdnce
assailed in the flank, who caA proph
esy that that country will not quick
ly be brought under the heel of the
same conqueror and England's army
left to battle against overwhelming
numbers? This is delineating two
things: First, the exact situation as
it now is, and second, the possibili
ties of the future; and it is presented
with the hope that we will at least
partially awaken to a realization of
what is before us."
Boasting Not Sufficient
Senator McCumber said the idea
that pointing out our weakness dis
couraged the American people and
encouraged the enemy was a mis
taken one and declared that "we
must now learn the lesson that
boasting will not win this war." He
said he was tired of hearing argu
ment that Germany would be reduc
ed to submission by starvation and
stated that the central powers con
trol three times as much territory
in Europe as do the allies. The
balance of resources held by Amer
ica, he said, should not be considered
until there was tonnage to carry men
and products across the seas.
When the United States entered
the war the allies cried "give us
ships," declared Senaton McCumber.
"We allayed their fears" wo assured
them we would supply that shipping.
We took that duty upon ourseilves,
the most important, the most vital
duty incumbent upon us in this war.
And we have neglected that duty
beyond any other, shamefully ne
glected it."
"They tell us it was because of
wrangling and disagreements in the
Shipping Board," he declared, and
added that he believed there was
lack of appreciation of the subma
rine menace In the bourd and that
he did not believe any member so
unpatriotic to delay shipbuilding
while his personal differences were
being settled " "We appointed a
Kilkenny Shipping Board and then
went to sleep," he said, continuing:
"Where Is our shipping? Where
is it coming from? Possibly God
knows; certainly neither the Ship
ping Board nor the Navy Depart
ment knows."
Food For Allcs
Senator McCumber recommended
that the United States stop sending
soldiers to France now and use all
available tonnage for food for the
allies, stimulate efforts to attempt to
produce a ship immune to torpedo
attack and to make a full and ade
quate test of reinforced concrete ves
sels. He said he believed the allies
would emerge from the war after
securng the peace lad down by
President Wilson, but was equally
"certain that unless we come to the
support of our allies with shipping
facilities many times greater than
we propose, some of our allies will
fall before we can take their place
on the battlefield."
Council Now Plans to Hear
Gross' Charge Against Three
Candidates in Open Session
The charges made by Commission
er Gross against three of the candi-'
dates for city treasurer may be
heard by Council in open, session it
was learned to-day.
One of the members of Council in i
speaking of the • action taken by
Council yesterday in deciding to hear
the three men said he understood
the meeting to be an open one at
which all interested parties could be
present.
"I did not think another closed
session was to be held and I doubt
if I will attend any more confer
ences. I see no reas6n why this
affair should not bo heard in public
as it concerns the public as well as
the members of Council."
No time has been set for the
meeting and some of the commis
sioners in speaking of the new de
velopment yesterday said they do not
intend to call the meeting together.
It is likely that if it is held this
week it will probably be on Friday
or on Saturday.
Commissioner Burtnett. who made
the motion to have the three candi
dates present at the discussion, it is
understood has no objections to an
open meeting.

Take in Norfolk Branch
Philadelphia, Jan. 16.—As a -fur
ther step in consolidating the New
York, Philadelphia and Norfolk Rail
roads with other portions of the

Hassler Advertises For
New Bids For Removal
of Municipal Ashes
Bids for ash collections in the city
will be opened Saturday, January
26, according to an advertisement,
authorized to-day by Commissioner
Hassler.
The bids will be received for three
districts and specifications are be
ing prepared to meet this change in
pfan. The districts are:
First—Entire section east of Cam
eron street to city line and from the
northern to the southern city line
east of that street.
Second—West of Cameron street
to river, and from the south side of
Herr street to the southern city line.
Third—West of Cameron street to
river and from the north side of
Herr street to the northern city line,
including Fourteenth ward.
If the bids for district collections
are too high none of the commis
sioners would say what course Coun
cil will take. Some officials favor
municipal collections despite the rul
ing of City Solicitor Fox that the
city cannot legally do so. Others are
reported to favor giving the whole
scheme and letting the householders
have them removed by private col
lectors. Some of the councilmen
openly oppose this plan and have
said they will not agree to it.
Democrat Given Seat

Governor Brumbaugh this after

sioner Michael J. Ryan. His term of

Liverpool, Jan. 16.—Final count
of the Red Cross drive in Liverpool
shows that the town has lost none
of the patriotic spirit which made
it famous durln the Civil War, when,
in response to the call, an entire
company of volunteers went from
Liverpool to help preserve the na
tion. Though only a small town of
about r>oo inhabitants, Liverpool has
subscribed over $40,000 in Liberty
Bonds, $587 to the Y. M. C. A. drive,
(oversubscribing $227); oversub
scribing in the Red Cross drive by
over forty members and last but not
least, nineteen of Liverpool's boys
ar in training at various camps and
two are "somewhere in France."
This ■week a Thrift Stamp dirve will
be made.
