French aviators have accounted for four enemy machines, according to a statement from the war office to-night, which also .-eports a suc cessful Belgian forward movement near Lombaertzyde. Regarding the operations in the east, the statement says that on March 12, French troops made sev- j eral successful raids north of Ljum nica. Near Gradeschnitza Serbiaii troops brought back several Bulgar ian prisoners in a raid. Entente avia tors carried out a number of raids and bombarded the enemy establish ments near Rupel and north of Mon astir. An official note issued to-night says the two recent raids have shown clearly that cellars are the safest shelters, affording protection against bombs, aerial torpedoes and inflam mable missiles. Instances show houses have been almost demolished without damage to the cellars. A special department has been or ganized by. the police to give any householder an opinion as to the strength of his cellar.

NEWS OF STEELTON NEW SYSTEM IN EFFECT APRIL 1 Garbage Collection Ruling Will Be Followed Out in Detail The new system of collecting gar bage and ashes will go into effect about April 1, E. C. Henderson, chair man of the highway committee of Council, said this morning. Plans are being outlined for the method of collections and for a new schedule. The borough has been granted per mission to dump at the cinder dump, but has not yet used the new loca tion. When the new system is put into use the cinder-dumping grounds will be used, Mr. Henderson said. The new system will mean that ev ery resident will be compelled to separate the garbage from the afehes. An ordinance providing for this has been passed by Council and went into effect several months ago, but has not -been rigidly enforced. In order to have the garbage and ashes taken away under the new ruling, it will be necessary for residents to follow out the ordinance in detail. A general cleanup of the garbage and ashes' in the town is now under way, according to the committee chairman. The shortage of labor and teams is hampering the committee in carrying out the work, but the clean up is being made. SELL 500 TICKETS FOR ROBERT TEMPEST RECITAL Prof. W. M.

Do L<orcs, the famous French actress, who recently ar rived in this country and who is now in her 65th year, has aston ished everyone who has seen her, by her exquisite complexion and clear, smooth skin which is not marred by a single line or wrinkle. When asked to explain how she had retained her marvelous girlish beauty, she replied that she had always practiced one of the oldest of French beauty secret,s: a secret which for years was jealously guarded by the court ladies of Na poleon the First. It consists of laying a warm cloth on the face each night before retiring for about one minute and then when the cloth Is removed, a generous amount of ordinary am-o-nlzed cocoa cream should be applied over tli entire face and neck, massago It gently Into the skin with the linger tips for about two minutes, then wipe off the surplus with a soft, dry cloth. Mile. De Lores says that any American woman who has wrinkles and large pores or flabby, loose skin, can easily and quickly overcome these de stroyers of beauty by the use of this simple yet delightful and na tural Beautlfler, which is Inexpen sive and can be found at almost any good druggist's. The above, coming as it does from such a oonnolsßeur of beauty, should appeal strongly to every lady who appreciates what a fair face means to the gentler sex.

Better Weather Improves Production of Plants The production of the local steel plant as well as many others in the country has improved with better weather conditions.. The transporta tion problem is still confronting steel officials. The Iron Age of to day says: "Favoring weather has put up the production of pig iron and steel, but the derangement and insufficiency of transportation still stand out every where. There is little dissent, there fore, from the view that the industry will fall considerably short of capac ity production in 1918. At the same time demand for other than war, purposes is meager and in some lighter products the outlook for mill operations is not so promising."

The force is estimated at 10,- 000 and is armed with modern rifles. Tibet is controlled virtually by the natives who are a branch of the Mongol race, the Chinese govern ment looking after foreign relations and maintaining small garrisons of Chinese troops. There is a regent appointed by the Chinese govern ment selected from the Lamas or religious leaders. In 1913 Tibet'demanded complete autonomy and in October of that year the Tibetans were successful in fighting against the Chinese. A con ference at Simla, India, in July, 1914, failed to agree on a conven tion between China, Great Britain and Tibet, assuring the autonomy of Tibet. In January, 1917, Great Brit ain presented ten demands on China affecting Tibet, but these have not yet been agreed to by China. The province of Szechuan has been overrun recently by bandits, against whom the Chinese troops have been able to make little head way: PK.VBItOOK COUNCIL ACTS Members of the Penbrook Borough Council met last night and passed a resolution* directing enforjann-nt of the law which prohibits dumping of ashes, refuse and rubbish on the streets and alleys in the town.

The peace terms submitted to King Ferdinand of Rumania by Count Ceernin, the Austro-Hungarian for eign Minister, demand the abdica tion of ths King in favor of his brother, Prince William, according to a dispatch from Berlin.

SCHAEFFER BOOMS GARDENS Says That School Children Should Learn How to Plant Them For Food '' ,up< ' r ' nten< * ent °' sued a statement § movement to have )B Qff'lb SB? childron connect- schools engage in gardening during to coming summer, and calling at tention to the importance of having boys work on the farm. Dr. Schaeffer's statement, which was issued after a conference *with Dr. P. p. Claxton, Federal Commls sicnei of Education, is as follows: This spring there will be made a drive to introduce gardening at the homes of the children through the public schools. In a few places, school gardens are connected with the public schools. This is a most commendable move in the direction of increased food production and has educational value, because it teaches pupils to do things and makes them acquainted with nature and her operations. "A move is also on foot to find out what farmers can use boys from city high schools and to supply the farm help available from that source. The most effective farm help, is that of the boy who lives on the farm and goes to school. This boy can help for a day or two in case of emergency, and then return to school without losing his oppor tunities for an education. Boys in the .smaller towns often go to help relatives and friends in the country. These can also return to school when they are notneded and thus keep up with their classes. A more diffi cult problem confronts the teach ers, when the boy is a considerable distance from h<yne, where he can not be under the control of the prin cipal or his parents. This is a prob lem which L. H. Dennis, of the De partment of Public Instruction, hopes to work out. Several thou sand boys are available for such work." To Have Conference—Plans for a joint conference of the two State Commissions on health insurance and old age pension laws are being made and they will probably meet to discuss their problems. Chair man James H. Maurer, of the old age pension commission, is gathering data here and has assembled laws of foreign countries on the subject. To Start Early —State Commis sioner of Fisheries Buller says that the spring work of the Fishery De partment will start weeks ahead of the usual time this year, if the wea ther conditions continue. Large numbers of adult trout will be dis tributed, southern counties receiv ing the first lots as soon as streams are reported in proper state. Compensation lVoard—The State Compensation Board in a decision In the case of Maier vs. Pittsburgh Brewing Co., decides that sunstrokes when suffered in the course of em ployment, is a just claim for com pensation. The decision reviews numerous cases in which heat is held to cause violent changes in the physical structure of the body and sunstroke is declared to be in that class. In deciding the case of Hen nessey vs. United Stove Repair Co., Philadelphia, returned by the Su perior Court for further hearing, the Board makes an allowance for death of the husband of the claimant from an infection caused by a nail enter ing his foot. Compensation was given him during life time and now an allowance is made for the widow for a limited period. The Board dismissed the appealp in the case of Volantis vs. Philadelphia and Read ing Coal & Iron Company, saying that the defendant company "had no right to cease paying compensa tion, without first presenting its pe tition to terminate the agreement. The suggestion is made that light work be given to the claimant in Pressler vs. General Refractories Co., Mt. Union, so that the Board may have data on which to base an allowance during the period of re covery. In Dodds vs. Ta<*bny Lumber Co., Philadelphia, compensation is given for an injury which has re cently developed into total loss of a hand, the first order being for par tial disability. In a review of the case of Leary vs. J. Gibson Mcllvain Co., Philadelphia, an allowance is made for a posthumous child. Half a donen appeals are dismissed as they are governed by previous deci sionr.
