10 f PUT ALL WASTE IN PAPER BAGS FOR CITY NURSERY Every Household Receives a Hug in Waste Conservation and Clean-up Campaign This week marks the start of the waste campaign under the auspices of the Nurser/ Home of Harrisburg. The campaign is similar to'that con ducted last yejir. It is a plan to raise funds by the collecUon and sale of the useless and worn-out if castoffs in the homes of this city. . Sanitary paper bags are now be ing distributed throughout the city, one to each family. On each bag is printed a list of articles wanted, and housewives are urged to read It care fully before searching their homes for things to put into the brown paper bag, as' it is estimated that every home contains most of this clutter that can help swell the fund for the Nursery Home. J jst year's campaign was success ful, though the idea was then in its infancy. It is expected that this campaign will far surpass the last in every way. Housewives of this city are glad to help support the home for the homeless, orphaned and des titute children of Dauphin county. The Nursery Home opens its doors to little onee ranging in age from the youngest babies to ten-year-olds. The past year has made particularly heavy demands on the funds of the home, and the funds to be realized from the co-operation of Harrisburg housewives in this campaign will be he put to good and immediate use. Though this campaign is primarily tot the raising of funds, it is of spe cial value at this time of the year, as it will furnish Harrisburg house wives with an incentive to rid their homes of much waste material and will leave their homes healthier and cleaner. Tons of waste accumulations will come forth from the attics and cel lars of Harrisburg during this cam paign.. It will be collected in a sys tematic and sanitary way, and the total collection will be sold to the highest bidder. The amount to be realized depends, of coursfc, upon the size and quality of the collec tion. mni.rc institute ci.osf.s The closing session of the annual T. M. P. A.

April 29.—Stephen j Leslie Mestrezat, Associate Justice of , the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, j died in liis apartments at the Aldine , Hotel yesterday morning after an ill ness of some months from heart dls- ' ease. He had been confined to Ills \ room for three weeks and had ap- ] peared on the bench but once since ' the Supreme Court began its sittings ' in Philadelphia in January. With him at the time of his death were two sisters, Mrs. Harriet L. Hudson, j of Uniontown, and Mrs. Charlotte A. , John, of Trinidad, Col. Judge Mestrezat's death is the second to occur in the Supreme Court within two weeks. Justice William P. Potter having died with in that time. The news of Judge Pot ter's death affected Judge Mestrezat ' greatly, causing him a profound 1 feeling of sorrow. Two vacancies now exist among ' the seven Justices of the, Supreme J Court, which will be filled by ap pointment by the Governor. The ' court adjourned its sittings in this 1 city to-day until after the funeral. Tribute From Associates Justice John Stewart, who is pre siding at the sessions of the Supreme ' Court in this city, said yesterday, '• speaking in behalf of his colleagues : on the bench: "The absence from the city at this time of the Chief Justice of the 1 court perhaps devolves upon me the : duty of giving some expression to 1 the sorrow and grief -which has over taken the surviving members of the court in consequence of the death of their late colleague, S. Leslie Mes trezat. "All that I feel called upon to do at this moment, while as yet the grave of our brother is untenanted and the mourners are gathered at his bed, is to testify to the love and ; esteem in which he was held by his fellow members, their profound sor row that he has been taken from them, their deep sense of loss in that he was a most useful and helpful member of the court and a most companionable and agreeable asso ciate." Born at Maplewood, Greene coun ty, Pa., February 19, 1848, Justice Mestrezat passed his boyhood on his father's farm, and after early tuition , in the public schools attended ; Waynesburg College, from which he was graduated in 1569. After com pleting the law course at Washing- : ton and Lee University at Lexing ton, Va., he was admitted to prac tice at the Greene county bar in September, 1871. He was elected a common pleas judge in the FourteentH Judicial dis trict in 1593 and before the expira- . tion of his term was elected to tfie i Supreme Bench on the Democratic | ticket, taking his seat the following January. His term would have ex pired in 1921. In 1903, on the retirement of the | late Chief Justice James T. Mitchell, | from the bench. Judge Mestrezat ' and Judge .1. Hay Brown, the present : Chief Justice, drew lots for the dis tinction of succeeding to the chief justiceship, both having been com missioned on the same date. The , choice fell to Chief Justice Brown. Justice Mestrezat came of an old French family of Bordeaux and could trace his ancestry back to 1592. On the bench Judge Mestrezat was one of the most careful jurists in the preparation of the court's opinions and a man of untiring industry. No j shadow of politics ever weighed in his legal decision. He was regarded as a man whose learning and repu tation adorned the dignity of the Supreme Court. Commenting on Judge Mestreeat's death, Justice Robert Yon Moschzis ker, one of his associates on the Su preme Bench said: "Judge Mestrezat's death is a great loss to the State of Pennsylva nia. particularly to its judicial de partment. He was a man of sterling character and one of the hardest working judges that ever sat upon the bench of the Supreme Court. His work in the law leaves marks of dis tinction that will live so long as Pennsylvania jurisprudence is j known. Personally, he was a lovable j ■ haracier and his going is deeply felt] by his brothers upon the bench." Michael J. Ryan, Public Service i Commissioner, said: "Justice Mestre-! zat was a great judge and his death] will mean a great loss to the Com-! monwealth." FRENCH ADORN U. S.

Vat-ant Spaces in Line | Here and there in the line of | heroes were spaces representing ; Americans who were killed or wounded seriously. It had been raining in the fore noon but the sun broke through the I grayish clouds when the 104 th Regri j nirnt which also was decorated as a unit, passed in review before Amer ican and French generals. Bands played the "Star Spangled Banner'' and ''The Marseillaise" while the American and French flags waved proudly and defiantly within sound of the roar of German guns. The French general in conferring the decorations said of the regl | ment: "It showed the greatest audactiy I and a fine spirit of sacrifice. Sub | Jected to very violent bombardments I and attacked by large German forces, : it succeeded in checking the danger ous advance and took, at the point -of the bayonet in a most vigorous way. prisoners and some demolished trenches from which it had fallen i back at the first assault." The few civilian spectators who witnessed the ceremony included several French women, residents of villages near the front. They cheer ed as the young Americans, wearing full equipment and helmets, marched , by. Some Americans attached to I other units were greatly moved when the band played the national etyi blem. Proud Moment For General | They saw the bright new Hag and j realized what thelrcomrades had been I through to merit the honor. The gen eral commanding the American forces shook hands with and spoke words of encouragement to each of the men decorated, saying it was the proudest moment of his life to be commknder of men who had done such great honor to the country. Ap April 10, 11, 12 and IS the Ger mans attempted to break through the American position near Apremont forest. In the four days' fighting the enemy lost between 300 and 400 of his especially trained shock battal ion of 800 men. Of this number 100 were killed. The Americans took 3 6 prisoners.
