STEELTON NEWS ITEMS
WILL USE BOILER
PLANT NEXT WEEK
| New Equipment Will Be Put
Into Operation on
Wednesday
The new boiler plant at the local
j steel plant will be put into operation
| next Wednesday morning, according
ito an announcement made at the
main office this morning. The plant
lis one of four which furnished
j steam power for the operation of the
; entire plant.
Eire will be built in the boilers to
morrow evening for a final test. If
1 no trouble is detected the plant will
i be ready for operation on schedule
time, an ofliclal said this morning.
I The plant is situated in the vicin
ity of Swatara street. Four 250-horse
■ power boilers of modern type will be
placed in operation. With this plant
furnishing steam for the pipe lines
! the efficiency in the operation of the
plant will be greatly increased. Work
on the erection of the plant was
started about three months ago.
Officials announced to-day that the
plans for placing a method into use
| for softening water for boiler pur
poses are well underway. Announce
ment in regards to the procedure
along these lines will be made in the
i next few weeks.
Much of the boiler trouble is ex
, pected to be wiped out . after the
! water softening process is put into
use. Using canal water for boiler
I purposes in its crude form has caus
-1 ed officials of the boiler department
i heaps of trouble, and the softening
I method is being put into use to over
j come it.
Scouts Make Final Drive
For Cantonment Books
A house-to-house canvass '.'or
i books was made to-day by Boy
| Scouts in an effort to get this dis
trict's allotment to the soldiers and
I sailors library. Up to this morning
j only about 100 volumes have been
I collected. Fearing that the campaign
is not going to compare favorably
with previous war drives in Steelton,
Scoutmaster C. W. McCoy last night
assigned scouts to districts for a
house-to-house canvass. At many
of the homes where the boys called
they were turned back without a
book. This is largely due, Scoutmas
ter McCoy thinks, to lack of interest
in the campaign.

tlle States
■HwWllMa Army and to men
now in civil life,
11-fiSlfiltiWlSe w,l ° served with
mmi t,le Pennsylvania
jfjjy T division along the
1916 and the
early part of 1917, will begin in a
very short time. Adjutant General
Frank D. Beary, has received the
first medals and on April 2. will be
at Camp Hancock, to receive the ap
plications of men now in the 28th
division who are qualified to receive
them, while men in the organiza
tions of the service or in civil life,
will make application to the Adju
tant General at the State Capitol.
The mdal is of bronze, of service
side, witli a bust of William Penn
in armor on one side and a figure of
Liberty with shield raised and sword
in sheath on the other. In front of
the goddess is the American eagle,
while behind is a rattle snake. The
goddess is facing the Rio Grande,
with representations of plenty In the
fields on the American side and cac
tus on the Mexican side. The medal
is appropriately inscribed.
The ribbon Is of Pennsylvania blue
with narrow stripe of the three Mex
ican colors in the center. The bars
will be issued with the medals.
Well Under Way —The last of the
units of the First Infantry of the
Pennsylvania Reserve Militia, will
be mustered in during the coming
week, and the formation of the
Philadelphia troop of the cavalry is
under way. Almost half of the third
infantry is mustered and two and a
half companies of the second. The
machine gun detachments will be
mustered in before very long.
Tlie Printing' Code —The new code
for sanitation and safety in the print
ing establishments of Pennsylvania,
beins drafted by the State Industrial
Board and a commltee of employers
and employes, will be ready for a
hearing In a few weeks. It is the
idea to make'it effective this sum
mer .
Public Service—The Public Serv
ice Commission will probably not
take any action in regard to either
Philadelphia or Pittsburgh transit
matters, when it meets in executive
session here Monday. Hearings have
been scheduled for Philadelphia on
Wednesday on the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit lease and complaints
against the Philadelphia Suburban
Gas and Electric Co., while in this
city hearings will be held Tuesday
in Lebanon, Allegheny and Fayette
county cases. Thursday hearings
will be held on grade crossing cases,
among them one for a crossing in
Eddistone "for the duration of the
war." One of the unusual applica
tions is for incorporation of a ferry
across the Monongaliela, between
Fayette and Green counties.
First Samples Taken —First sam
ples of foods and drinks have been
taken by agents of the State Dairy
and Food Commissioner, in several
towns which have had rapid growths
because of the developriient of muni

ples are of practically everything
sold for food, and were sent to
chemists for analysis.
To Provide Tractors— lmmediate
steps are to be taken by the State
Department of Agriculture to pro
vide for farm tractor service in the
northern tier. The schedules for the
southern parts of the state are de
clared at the departmental offices to
be up to the available tractors.
Whether any additional machines
will be bought or not depends upon
the applications and the localities
from which they come. The com
mittee in charge of the tractor pur
chases will consider tliem.
New Railroad Line—The Pennsyl
vania railroad has asked the Public
Service Commission to approve a
contract between the city of Phila
delphia and the company as lessee
of the Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington railroad for construction
of a branch line of railroad across
the Fortieth ward of Philadelphia
from the county line of Philadelphia
and Delaware counties near the junc
tion of Bow Creek and the back
channel through city property across
lowlands west of the Schuylkill river
and across the Chester branch of the
Philadelphia and Reading to the
main line of the Philadelphia, Bal
timore and Washington near Sixtieth
street.
McAdoo Waves ITag—Director
General McAdoo has telegraphed to
the Public Service Commission sug
gesting that action be deferred in
the proceedings for elimination of
grade crossing on the line of the
Reading railway in Reading, because
of money and materials being need
ed for transportation purposes, until
the existing war emergency passes.
The case is listed for a hearing in
Reading on April 5 and a conference
on the subject will be held here on
Monday between the commission,
Reading city and railroad officials.

Bishop Here From France
Says Huns Will Lose War
"Germany will be beaten." This
was the brief, but convincing, mes
sage given to Bishop Luther B. Wil
son by General Pershtng as the
Bishop left France recently to re
turn here and lecture on tlie topic,
"Over Here and Over There." It
was this discourse which he gave
last night in the assembly room of
Grace Methodist Church to an audi
ence of over eight hundred, for the
benefit of the Red Cross auxiliary of
that church.
It was just before taking his de
parture from th.e other side that
Bishop Wilson had the good luck to
have an Interview with the chief of
Uncle Sam's forces. It was upon
telling him what he expected to do in
the way of giving lectures that Gen
eral Pershing dictated the message
which he would like delivered to the
American people.
The distinguished speaker both
praised America and blamed her.
Only for Uncle Sam, he declared,
the French would have quit long
ago. On the other hand he soundly
blamed the nation for not being more
alive to the danger. He emphasized
that Great Britain has furnished 8,-
000,000 fighting men England alone
giving 4,000,000. Not until our
country has sent over that number
can we say that we have honestly
done our part.

How It Spreads —A striking illus
tration of the way smallpox spreads
in York county has just come here
in a State Health Department report.
William Spahr, of near Etters, had
smallpox in his house and did not
know It. He attended Harrisburg
markets, while a son went to a phy
sical examination of drafted men
and came in contact with fifteen
men. While he did not have the dis
ease, it is believed his clothing car
ried contagion. Others members of
the family attended schools and
meetings. The cases reported have
been mild, but a number of new ones
have appeared this week.
REDUCTION
IS NOT SINFUL
The purpose of Beauty is to refine
the native uncouthnes.s of human na
ture. We all bow to its power. It is
the only autocracy that has no nihil
ist shadow. Alas! this means the fat
woman must serve instead of rule,
for beautv In woman is a composite
of both line and feature.
Thousands of fat women are beau
tiful of face. But they lag- behind in
the race for preference—because a
too ponderous outline dashes the favor
their face has Rained them.
Now, pretty fat women can reduce
that fat (not the Rood pure-lined flesh)
in a very simple way. No exercise—
no dieting is necessary. Let them
take one Marmola Prescription Tablet
after each meal and at bedtime for
a month. The fat will simply fade.
No wrinkles or pouches of skin will
form, but the loss will be uniform.
The fat will go as stealthily as it
came; fade away. The health will im
prove, the eye grow more brilliant,
the wit sprightller. Marmola Tablets
are a boon—and harmless (being
made from the famous fashionable
prescription: % ox. Marmola, oz.
Fl. Ex. Cascara Aromatic, 4% oz.
Peppermint Water), and are likewise
cheap, a large case of the druggist or
the Marmola Co., 884 Woodward Ave.,
Detroit. Mich., costing only seventy
live cents.—Advertisement.

Outfit of Hunt Club
Waynesboro, Pa., March 23.—The
Monterey Hunt Club expects to
break camp within the next few
days. It is rather late in the sea
son, but it could not be helped. Last
December's heavy snows marooned
the camp and the best the club could
do wrs to get safely out of the
mountain fastness about Caledonia
with their own bodies. The tents
and camp outfit had Jo be left r.s
they were and to the mercy of the
elements. And this riiercy was not
overly pronounced, as the storms
knocked the tents into three-cocked
hats and scattered the paraphernalia
all over the mountain slope. Thii
will be gathered up as fully as pos
sible. and brought back to the club's
headquarters at Blue Ridge Summit.
Albert Happel's automobile was part
of the marooned outfit.

Every foot of soil fit for garden use should he made to produce food. If you have a yard,
large or small, hack or front, or if there is a vacant lot near you, it should be conscripted in
this fight for food. The more food you grow for yourself during the summer and for canning
for winter, the more grain and meat foods you are releasing for those doing your fighting for
yuii. Have a garden—grow vegetables and can them for winter. Remember war and famine
arc chums—they always travel together—they have traveled together over Europe, thousands
of men, women and children have starved to death—will famine visit us? Better prepare—
fill your shelves this summer or you may go hungry next winter.
