Many Useful Articles
Being Knit for the
Soldier Boys
Never betore has the American
woman taken to knitting on as large
a scale as the present time. Every
one of tliem wlio did not know how
to knit before, is learning now and
those who have not are almost, out
of date. The Red Cross has been the
incentive to many and others have
boys of their own for whom they are
knitting.
A great many women thought that
knitting was hard, until they tried it
and then to their delight they found
out how easy it was. Only a little
practice makes the average woman
as proficient in the use of the needles
as many of our great-grandmothers.
One of the serious questions is
knitting is the scarcity of all kinds
of yarn. George R. Nauss, of Steel
ton, who conducts an Art Needle
Craft Store in Front street, at the
corner of Pine, has a large stock on
hand. He sells the best grades. He
also teaches knitting. He has a large
trade in stamped goods and all ac
cessories.
The Steelton and Middletown cars
stop right in front of his door. If
there is any shade of yarn that you
are desirous of getting it will pay
you to visit this store.
Tokyo Garden Closed For
Few Days Account of Death
The past few days the Tokyo Tea
Gardens were closed on account of
the death of a brother of the pro
prietor, but will open again to-day
and continue on the same basis as be
fore.
These tea gardens are gaining in
popularity each week. The number
of people who frequent these rooms
speak very highly of the grade of
food served and the excellent service
maintained.
For the benefit of those who are
not acquainted with the Tokyo Tea
Garden, let us say that it is an up-to
date restaurant serving only the best
grade of American and Oriental
dishes. It is located just above the
Victoria Theater in Market street,
and caters to the better class of
people. A specialty is Ladies After
noon every Friday.

pumping you—trying to find out;
things. They always acted pretty de- [
cent to make you talk. The food'
wasn't much. For breakfast wo had }
black coffee —no sugar or milk. That,
was all, unless you saved some bread;
from the day before. For lunch we j
had soup and boiled cabbage orj
boiled beets. Once in a while we
got some sort of pickled meat —as|
white as paper. At night we had tea j
—they called it that—and bread, and
sometimes canned meat hash or beei':
jam. Somehow, I never could gel i
to like beef jam.
"Three weeks after I landed, they
thought I was well enough to go to
a reprisal camp. I decided not to
go; reprisal camps aren't healthy
places. AVe sat in a compartment in
the train—six Englishmen, a French
man, and I. There was a guard with
us, so close my knees almost touched
his.
"Occasionally I stood up and test
ed the rack over my head and thtj
strap beside it. I had complained of
closeness and opened the window.
Then, suddenly, I stood up, grab
bed the strap and the rack, andj
swung myself out into the blackness, |
feet first.
"Of course the guard could have I
stopped me, if he'd jumped quick.!
Hut 1 suppose he didn't believe it,
even when he saw me shoot out.
We were going about thirty-five miles
an hour."
Lieutenant O'Brien looked
thoughtful. It was a breathless wait,
but he was preparing no climax.
"Poor chap," he went on. "He j
was just starting home on leave —j
that guard. Of course he was sent
straight back to the trenches. It's!
an awful thing to let a prisoner es-j

Real Merit and Economy
Shown in Harrisburg's
Leading Restaurants
The Philadelphia Quick Lunch,
307 Market street, established elev
en years ago by its present proprie
tor, George Coloviras, when quick
lunches were in their infancy, has
asserted itself as one of Harrisburg's
leading Restaurants. It is due to
the untiring efforts of Mr. Coloviras
to please his customers. Service is
the main issue at the Philadelphia
Quick Lunch, connected with first
quality foods, well prepared and
served to the queen's taste.
Mr. Coloviras, through his vast
experience as a restaurant man,
knows what's what when it comes
to serving the public. All the baking
of the delicious pies and cakes that
you eat here for breakfast, dinner
and supper are baked right on the
spot. A large force of men are em
ployed in the bakeries, which are
right back of the main restaurant
in Market street, in rounding into
shape the many kinds of pastry for
which the Philadelphia Quick
Lunches are noted. To get the best
results that are obtainable in the
restaurant business requires a lot of
attention and care. This Mr. Colo
viras surely does. When you walk
into any of the Philadelphia Quick
Lunches, three of them, you can
feel assured that you are getting the
best cooked food as well as the
quickest service in the city.
And not among the least of the
j merits of these fine restaurants is
the standard prices maintained to
tit the pocketbook of everyone. All
the prices are so adjusted that the
customer receives the most for his
money. It is, indeed, real economy
to eat at any of these restaurants.
With conditions such that every
nickel counts, you must look for the
best quality and the most for your
money. The Philadelphia Quick
Lunches also serve the biggest va
riety of dishes in the city.
The different branches of the Phil
adelphia Quick Lunch, besides the
main restaurant at 307 Market
street, are located At 407 Market
street and at 305 Broad street. All
the cooking and baking Is conduct
ed under the most sanitary condi
tions and every oourtesy is shown
the patrons in a desire to live up
to the reputation as "Harrisburg's
Leading Restaurants."
myself and ran—l ran till I dropped.
AVhen daylight came I hid in a
thicket.
i "For seventy-two days I tramped
j and dodged Germans at night and
| hid all day in the bushes and under
| growth. It's lucky for me that I
; grew up in the countny, and know
I the woods and how to live out of
1 doors. The days lying hidden from
j dawn tHI dark were almost worse
! than the nights of travel. It was
! over a month before I found a
! clothes-line with any thing to cover
|my uniform. I almost lived on raw
I cabbages and carrots and beets."
His journey led through part of
; Germany and across Luxembourg
, and Belgium, two hundred and fifty
j miles of enemy country.
"How did you steer your course?"!
I I asked.
i "By the North Star," he said, and'
then smiled. "I've dedicated my book I
to the North Star."
Ah last he reached the border of
Holland, and then It seemed that he
must fail, with success in sight; for
the wooden ladder he made to get
over tli wire barrier charged with
high-tension electric current proved
so good a conductor that he was
knocked out the niomevt he set foot
on it. When he recovered, ho be
gan fradically to dig a tunnel un
der the wires with his hands. He
wriggled through with only an inch
or so to spare; and as he got to his
I feet a little way on the Holland
| side, he saw the dim figure of the
I sentry pass.
Probably you've guessed that
O'Brien was an American.
So interesting is the story of Lieu
tenant o'<fri<Aj that the Harrisburg
Telegraph will begin the publication
to-morrow of "Smiling Pat's" de
tailed description of his wonderful
adventures.
ENDORSE POTATO WEEK
j A state-wide potato week will lie
| observed during the week of April IS,
during which time on effort will be
made to dispose of the excess potato
i supply held by farmers from their
j last year's crop. The local grocers
have endorsed the movement, which
I entails the handling of large quan
i tities of potatoes at a profit of ten
cents per bushel. The plea to use
potatoes and save the wheat has lons
' been urged by the County Food Ad
ministrator.

School of Commerce
Growing Rapidly; Large
> Enrollment for Summer
, The School of Commerce estab- !
lished 1894, now the oldest and larg- )
est in Central Pennsylvania, has been
successfully conducted since 1907
under the personal supervision of
D. L. M. Raker. The enrollment
books show over 500 students, con
sisting of normal, high school, teach
ers, college people, and people of
leisure and wealth. Two years ago
t Its various departments, equipment,
I teachers, courses of study and meth
ods were examined by a national
t committee on education and it was
, pronounced a standard school and
t was admitted to the National Asso
ciation of Accredited Commercial
t Schools of United States and Canada.
It is Mr. Raker's aim to keep fully
in touch with every important de
velopment in modern office devices
and methods.
The new stenotype machine was
introduced five years ago for those
students who desire greater speed
and an easier method of taking dic
j tation. Ten teachers are employed
and are specialists as heads of their
department, which leaves each de
partment with the last word In effi
ciency. Every graduate receives a
diploma from the school and a poc
ket certificate from Hie N. A. A. C. S.
which gives membership in the em- I
eloyment department of any ac
credited school in the country. Class
and individual instruction are given
and the student may enter at any
time of the year, any Monday, and
. pursue the course as rapidly as their
, ability will permit them, regardless
' of what others are doing. School of
, Commerce students hold responsible
positions in prominent offices and,
; business corporations of Harrisburg
, and many other cities and towns.
, Hundreds are employed in the Capl
. tol and United States government de
' partments. Many have gone to Wash
ington wltlioin the past few months
at beginning salaries of SI,OOO or
' $1,200 a year. Many others are
! leaving each month at salaries rang
ing from or $1,200. Many
: ambitious students are working
1 unusually well, making special at
-1 tempts to finish in a short time. One
' girl finished the stenographic course
1 in four and one-half months, the
' champion record, finishing all bran
' ches with exceptionally high marks
In each line of work.
" | Courses of study consist of Book
' | keeping or Business Course, which
i comprise bookkeeping and account
.! ing, commercial law, commercial
. i arithmetic, penmanship, rapid calcu
lation, business English, punctuation
Jiand corresponding and spelling;
, I Shorthand courses, typewriting, let

' j Milk Not High in Com
ij parison to Other Foods;
Has Great Values
■'j There is a good deal of agitation
j* j now-a-days in the mind of the aver
* j age businessman as to how he is
j j going to make both ends meet for
i the coming season. It seems as if
? j everything under the sun has sud
denly shown a disposition to imitate
i a Zeppelin, and go away up in the
lair, as far as price is concerned. Of
j course, there are some foods which
I have not altered much in value, but
as a rule those arc the foods of which
'I the average man and woman are not
! overfond. llut take edible milk, meat
t j and bread, and they have soared to
i tremendous and awe Inspiring
_j heights. Milk, however, is one of
~ r those few foods without which man
i would be lost. Not only is it an ex
cellent food in itself, but Its variety
j and multiplicity of uses in other
foods and in combination with other
eatables, make it ever more valu
able. In these times of stress and
j strain, the best foods only should be
, 1 eaten, and milk is one of the best
! foods. The Cumberland Valley
' Dairy at Lemoyne, Clarence Gill,
H proprietor, operate one of the most
i up-to-date plants In Harrisburg and
- vicinity, for the distribution of milk
1 and cream. Thousands of dollars
; have been invested in modern ma
? ehinery and all milk sold by The
Cumberland Valley Dairy is pas
- teurized, clarified and otherwise
treated in the most approved sani
tary methods.

Shopping Made Easy When
You Can Buy Anything
You Want in One Store
j It is indeed a pleasure when you
go on a shopping tour of the down
town section, to get into Uie street
car'and have it take you to the door
of the store where you are assured
you can buy anything you want from
hairpins to parlor suites. Gately &
Fitzgerald Supply Company, 31 South
Second street is Just that kind of a
store. You can buy anything and
everything that you could possibly
think of in this great big store.
Clothing for father, mother, brother,
sister, the baby and all the family re
lations, furniture of all kinds and
descriptions, stoves, ranges, carpets,
rugs, toys. Oh, s&y, I can't begin to
mention all the useful things that
are displayed on sale.
Credit System Used
Among the big features of this big
store is the credit system. People
have somehow gotten the idea that
the credit system is costly, inasmuch
as the prices must be higher than
for cash sales. This Is decidedly not
so. With the universal capacity for
big buying that the Gately & Fitzger
ald Supply Company enjoy, they un
doubtedly can sell their wares for
much less than the average mer
chant because of the discount they
receive by buying things in carload
lots.
Prices at this big store are so
adjusted that a nominal profit is
made on all articles and so that the
customer gets the advantage of the
Gately & Fitzgerald Supply Com
pany's power of buying and selling.
Out of HJglt Rent District
Another unique feature of this big
store is the fact that it is out of the
high rent district and yet so near the
heart of the city. This is also a big
saving in overhead expenses which
again demonstrates the fact that
there naturally Is a big saving to the
public by taking advantage of the
opportunity of buying there.
Frank R. Downey, Manager
This big store lias been contin
uously doing business in Harrisburg
since 1882, thereby making it one
of the oldest established businesses
in this city. Frank R. D.qwney,
the manager, has been identified
with the company since he was a
boy. Since 1903 he has had charge
of the Harrisburg branch, therefore
being well informed in his line of
business and capable of conducting
his matters in such a way that the
customer is not only a very satisfied
one but ready to come back and buy
again.
A Five-Cent Carfare Often
Saves a Good Many Dollars
There are numerous occasions
when in spending a live-cent carfare,
taking a little ride in the trolley and
going to a store where rents' and
overhead expenses are low, that you
can Qften save a good many dollars.
This is so in most any line of busi
ness. Most people spend carefare in
going down street to the business
section of the city to make their pur
chases; spend their money and feel
satisfied that they have gotten all '
their money will buy, and do not in
vestigate any further in looking for
real economy.
These are the days of economy in
every lino of business, whether it be
buying or selling, and the way to get
the most for the dollar is to go
where that same dollar will buy the
most.
H. G. Day, the piano man at 1421
Derry street, is offering big bargains
in musical Instruments. He conducts
i a general musical store and is out pf
the high rent district. Necessarily his
overhead expenses are not as high as
many of the stores that are in the
business center of the city. The
Derry street trolleys (Hummelstown,
Paxtang and other cars going out
that direction) all pass this store. It
is a simple matter to get off hero in
stead of going further, and in doing
so save some money.
Mr. Day handles the best in mu
sical instruments, both pianos and
phonographs. He maintains a credit
system, thereby enabling anyone to
have music in the home on the easy
payment plan. It is well to investi
gate these conditions before buying
and assure yourself that when
spending money you will get the
most for the dollar.
