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. Dr. George Edward Reed, ex
president of Dickinson College.

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.
