10 METHODISTS AT BIGRALLYPLAN FOR PROHIBITION Prominent Churchmen and Laymen Speak at First Annual Dinner The Masonic Temple banquetroom was the scene last night of a most significant gathering, that of 500 Methodists, representing all Harris biirg churches of that denomination and many others in the immediate, neighborhood. The occasion was notable as establishing a precedent for a similar annual meeting each year and for the progressive plans adopted having to do with general rhurch welfare and prohibition. Re ligion and the war. that transcendent topic which is being so generally discussed, was touched on by Bishop William F. McDowell, one sentence making a profound impression: "Death has suddenly become inter esting to the youth instead of the aged; it has come to have a new interest in the world." In speaking on the subject. "Meth odism in Harrisburg and Its Oppor tunities," J. Horace McFarland em phasized that its chief point of at tack just now should be the "booie" protection. He insisted that every church member enroll, and, not only want Pennsylvania's aup port to the federal amendment, but we want state-wide prohibition sixty days after the next Legislature meets." He brought up a vital subject, one which is greatly concerning the Y. M. C. A., namely, the problem of tak ing care of men and youths when the saloons are all closed. "One half the patrons of saloons go there s-ceking association." he reminded. "The saloon supplies what the church does not, fellowship, light, equality and closer associations. Prohibition will fail unless the church supplies this need." Recommend* Manxe As a starter to provide for this need, the Rev. Dr. Morris E. Swartz. district superintendent of the Cen tral Pennsylvania Conference, urged, the establishment here of a spacious manse. He also recommended the erection of a home for homeless and destitute children of this Conference, which should be located not more than a 5-cent trolley fare from Har risburg. The Stevens Memorial male chorus nave a number of selections during and after the banquet. Warren R. VanDyke, president of the Harrisburg Methodist Union, was toastmaster. The Rev. Dr. H. R. Bender, pastor of the Ridge Avenue M. E. Church, offered the invocation, and the Rev. William Moses, pastor of St.' Paul's M. E. Church, pro nounced the benediction. Among those present were: Dr. •lames H. Morgan, president of Dick inson College: the Rev. Dr. George 1\ Mains, head of the Methodist Book Concern of New York, and the Rev.

NEW BOOM STARTS FOR TREXLER Allentown Businessman Ad vocated by His Friends Along the Lehigh Over in Allentown, where a Re publican organization has been growing in strength pretty rapidly 'ln recent years, there are signs that the friends of Col. Harry C. Trexler, the big businessman of that city, are awaiting a time when they can launch a boom for him as a genu ine harmony candidate for the Re publican gubernatorial nomination. A dispatch from Allentown says, in part: "Word has come from many parts of the ftate to the Le ► high organization that what may develop into a factional battle might be averted should Colonel Trexler enter the field. He is not seeking the office, but leaders in many counties regard him as particularly available. Outside of those who are regarded as the leading aspirants, there are many favorite sons who are waiting for the lightning to strike. A canvass of the field re yeals that none has a stronger fol lowing or a better record than Colo nel Trexler. With a broad and com prehensive grasp of affairs, he fills the bill from every standpoint. His •business ability ranks him among the dozen ablest men in the state. He is the state's leading farmer. Twenty thousand men employed in industries in which he Is interested testify to his fairness as an employ er of labor, and he has thousands of followers among the sportsmen, from trout fishermen and rabbit gunners to the big game hunters. From all account the governorship question is not yet definitely settled, and there are many who think Colo nel Trexler may yet be called, es pecially since he enjoys the friend ship of the Vares as well as that of the Penrose people. "Simply on the score of h'.s 'per sonal popularity at home it is ac knowledged Colonel Trexler would receive a tremendous vote in the Berks-Lehigh Congressional district, the strongest Democratic region of the state, and it is asserted by his friends that his wide acquaintance In every county would make him a formidable candidate, especially in view of his proved organization and campaigning ability." MARCH 8, I9TS, BLUE JUNIATA TO SEE FIGHTS Numerous Legislative Aspir ants, but All on the "Dry" Side of It Now The valley of the Blue Juniata, which Is a hotbed of "dry" senti ment, bids fair to bo a pretty stren uous battleground this year because of the contending ambitions of men connected with the two big parties. Everyone who is mentioned as a possible candidate favors the rati fication of the prohibition amend ment, otherwise he could not run. In Perry county, Clark M. Bow er, of Blain, is making fences rap idly with W. C. Lebo, of Now Bloom field, also preparing to get into tlio fight for the Republican nomina tion. Representative John S. Eby, of Newport, will not be a-candidate l'or renomination. The Democrats will likely name J. D. Snyder, a former member. In Juniata, Representative Isaiah D. Musser, of Mifflintown, will be a candidate for Democratic renomi nation, with chances that he wiU I have some opposition. J. B. Par-, sons, editor of the Port Royal Times, is looming up as the Repub lican candidate. Representative C. G. Corbln. of .Mirtlln county. Is a candidate for re-election, with prospects of oppo sition. Over in Huntingdon, Representa tive Dell is .o be opposed by Welch and Hower. The four counties will have a big hand In the Focht-Williamuon Con gressional contest and Republicans are much inclined to resent any in terference from Franklin county, especially from men who were try ing to wreck the Republican party a few years ago. Just Try This When Hairy Growths Appear (Modes of To-day) A smooth, hairless skin always fol lows the use of a paste made by mixing some water with plain pow dered delatone. This paate is ap plied to the hairy surface 2 or 3 minutes, then rubbed off and the skin washed," when every trace of hair will have vanished. No pain or dis comfort attends the use of the dela j tone pa&te, but caution should be 1 exercised to be sd*e that you get 1 real delatone.—Adv.
