"Work or Fight" Word
to Man Who Would
Sell Toy Balloons
That the "Work or Fight" ruling
and antiloafing edict will be rigidly
enforced In Harrisburg was evi
denced by the following letter sent
by the police department to Thomas
Zingaro, of York, who requested the
chief of police to allow him to sell
balloons and other wares of a simi
lar nature in Harrisburg streets:
"In reply to your letter of June 4,
1818, I am instructed by the Chief
of Police to say that the selling of
balloons or other wares of a similar
character on the streets of Harris
burg is strictly prohibited, particu
larly at this time, when all able
bodied men should be serving their
country In some useful way.
"Our slogan here is 'Go to work
or go to jail.' Therefore, there is
nothing doing along your line In
Harrisburg."*

MANY BEAUTIFUL
BLOOMS ARE SHOWN

engaged in selecting the win
ning blooms. Hundreds of other
beautiful blooms are on exhibition.
The Judges are: Miss Bess Trump
and Hi Riebe, of the Berryhill nur
series; Charles Uttley, florist; Mrs.
Margaret Cumbler, of Highspire, and
Mrs. S. F. Dunkle.
Awards are being made for the
following exhibits: Best general dis
play of roses, best individual speci
men blooms, tea, hybrid tea, or hy
brid perpetual roses, best roses of
climbing variety, three red roses,
three white roses and three pink
roses.
Blue, red and yellow ribbons will
be awarded as first, second and third
prizes in the different classes. Two
memberships in the American Rose
Society will be given—one of the
best general display and the other
for the best specimen bloom. These
memberships are the gifts of J. Hor
ace McFarland and the Berryhill
nursery. •
Entries for the exhibit closed
promptly at 1 o'clock with some two
hundred roses in their vases. These
exhibits, together with the flowers,
] roses and others, exhibited by pro
fessional nurserymen of Harrisburg.
in their -white, pink, deep scarlet and
blue splendor, scattered throughout
the lobby, presented a gorgeous ap
pearance. Just enough green-leafed
plants were displayed to sufficiently
diversify the exhibits.
With many rose bushes past the
blooming stage as a result of the
early spring weather and in view of
the fact that this is the first rose
etftiibitian ever held In Harrisburg,
the committees In charge of tfye 'two
day show feel that the first annual
Harrisburg Rose Show will be
recorded as a success.
Gardens of many rose growers
throughout the city and surround
ing territory contributed their share
to make the event a success. While
some rose lover with but few bushes
contributed probably nly a single
specimen, other growers with larger
space for the cultivation of the
"queen of flowers" contributed doz
ens of blooms. All of the exhibits
that are being judged for prizes were
those produced by amateurs for this
event is for amateur blooms alone.
No flowers of nurserymen, florists or
their employes were accepted for
prizes.
More than a score of varieties of
roses contributed their share in mak
ing the lobby of the Y. M. C. A. a
literal bower of fragrance.
But professional nurserymen and
florists of Harrisburg, while their en
tries were barred from entry* for
prizes, made exhibits and lent every
effort to make the amateur show a
success. Their exhibits were es
pecially valuable in producing such
a pleasing appearance. The exhibit
of the Berryhill nursery, especially
the handsome floral mantle decora
tion. was Quite pleasing.
The especially rare varieties of
plants were among the exhibits of
the professional ' nurseries. The
Berryhill concern showed a flower
ing mullen, technically a member of !
the Verbascum family. This particu
lar variety, the Kllen Willmot*
named after the daughter of an En
clish nurseryman, was grown in Har
risburg. or in fact in Central Penn
sylvania, for the first time this year.
Only a few other nurseries in the
United States produce this flower.
The plants are especially hard and
grow to the height of six feet.
The Incarvillia Delawayl, with no
common name as yet, Is another
plant grown in Harrisburg for the :
first time this year. Its seed was im- I
ported from Germany. The leaves of
the plant are of the fern type with
the .flowers resembling the rich pink
Gloxinia. The Nete Philadelphia, a
mock orange Imported from China,
anfl the N Corinella, are two other
varieties of plants being produced
for the first time here this year.
This show, which is being held
under the auspices of the Woman's
Advisory Board of the Y. M. C. A.,
is being helcj. for the benefit of the
war work of the Y. M. C. A. A
nominal admission fee is being
charged each visitor. All of the
blooms that are * in satisfactory
condition at the conclusion of the
show will be sent to the several Har
risburg hospitals to cheer the pa
tients of the institutions.
The show will close to-night at 8
I o'clock. ToJmorrow it will be open
from 10 a. m. to 9 p. m.
SCHWAB ASSERTS
SHIPYARDS ARE
TO RACE BRITAIN
Tells Hog Island Engineers
Progress Will Make the
World "Sit Up"
< ,
Philadelphia, June 7.—Great Bri
tain and the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration will virtually conduct an in
ternational race to see who will put
the greatest number of new ships on
the seas the coming year. To equal
ize the struggle which is coming, the
1 United Kingdom has Just authorized
■ the construction of twelve yards, with
I 100 ways, to meet the problem.
This is the gist of the message
which Charles M. Schwab, the master
shipbuilder, gave to the "Pull-To
gether" Club of Hog Island engi
eers, affiliated with the American
International Shipbuilding Corpora
tion ,at the Adelphia last night.
"I received this news from Great
Britain by cable to-day," continued
Mr. Schwab, "and I've just got sport
ing blood enough to want to see Hog
Island and the other yards lick our
greatest Ally, who Is our dearest
rival in this shipbuilding contest.
Will Make World Sit Up
"And when Hog Island gets run
ning I know that it will make the
whole world sit up and take notice.
Yt>u know there has been much criti
cism of Hog Island, and I often think
it came from fellows who were heed
less. Usually the fellow who does
the most criticising has the idea in
mind, I often think, that he wants
you to think he is a hell of a fel
low."
Mr. Schwab, after assuring his
hearers that there wasn't anything
gettable that he would not try to
obtain for Hog Island, told of a con
ference he had with Secretary Dan
iels, of the Navy Department, on
Wednesday. Mr. Schwab said:
"I told him that he ought to give
us those two big turbine factories
and plants at Buffalo, and that if we
had them we could go ahead pretty
confident that everything was lovely
for us. The Secretary told me that
if I sent along my engineers to-day—
and they have been down there all
