It is now said that a few drops of a drug called freezone ap plied directly upon a tender, aching torn relieves the soreness and soon the entire corn, root and all, can be lifted out without pain. For little cost a quarter of an ounce of freezone can be obtained from any drug store which is claimed to be sufficient to remove every hard I or soft corn or callus from one's! feet. This is a drug recently announced from Cincinnati. It is gummy but dries the moment it is applied and simply shrivels up the corn without inflaming or even Irritating the "liealthy tissue or skin.

TUESDAY EVENING, AUTO DRIVERS AND MECHANICS NEEDED ABROAD Y. M. C. A. Committee Ready to Recruit Men of Good Morals For Service "There is great need for automo bile drivers, repairmen, mechanics, storekeepers and construction work ers for the Y. M. C. A. forces in France," J. William Bowman, chair man of the local Y. M. C. A. recruit ing committee said at Its noon meet ing to-day. The committee decided to concen trate on recruiting for this branch and to that end will arrange for meetings with the Automobile Deal er's Association, the Harrisburg Min isterial Association and other bodies. The need for men of these qualifica tions is exceptipnal and growing all the time. The New York headquarters of the Y. M. C. A. reported to the local committee to-day that it is the! consensus of opinion, especially abroad, that no man should be ac-' cepted for Y. M. C. A. work who can] be o fmore service in the Army. Thei returning campaigners say that any age is all right for Y. M. C. A. work just so the men of draft age are visibly disqualified for Army service. I One section of the report of an in vestigator read at the meeting to day is of particular importance. It reads: "I was not on the field more than two weeks when I realized that we must have more real automobile mechanics, chauffeurs, storemen and construction men before we could operate with more than 50 per cent, efficiency. Everywhere I went in France, whether in Paris or out on the division I found that the Y. M. | C. A. was greatly hampered by lack of transportation. We need more cars, of course, but what we need infinitely more is to keep the cars we already have on the road. This can only be done by getting expert mechanics of the right character and spirit on the job. France is no place in which to start a kindergarten. If a man has not done a job successfully in America we should not allow him t otry it in France for he is almost sure to fail. It is hard enough for the competent to succeed there sur rounded by so many handicaps. Neither is France a proper place to conduct a reform school. On the other hand if a man has always lived a decent upright life he is pretty sure to be a credit to himself and the Y. >l. C. A. and a great help to the American Army." 13 YANKEESTN FIGHT WITH HUNS [Continued from First Page.] front occupied by our troops in Picardy ran into an ambush patrol of forty Germans. In spite of' its inferiority of nur&bers, the greater part of our patrol cut Its way through the enemy and returned to our lines. The fierceness of the fighting may be judged from the fact that nearly all of our men who re turned had been wounded. Gcrinan Plane Destroyed "Destruction of one of the German planes occurred during a fight be tween- the American patrol and a group of twelve to fifteen German Albatross scouts. It has not as yet been definitely stated to whom the destruction of the plane officially confirmed by the French Army Corps, is due. The second hostile plane was destroyed at 8.15 o'clock in the morning near St. Mihiel. Here an enemy biplane of the Hanover type was attacked by Lieutenants Meissner, Winslow and Taylor. The German plane turned over, burst into flames and was sent to the ground." "I Feel Fine Now" Says Leo H.

Pa., June 18. —The Wilkes-Barre city school board yes terday voted to abolish the study of the German language in the High school and to do away with all Ger man textbooks. FRENCH EDITOR^ BRINGS MESSAGE [Continued front First Page.] ane Lauzanne. French fighter, jour nalist and publicist, now touring the United States in the interests of his government, addressed tlie members of the Chamber of Commerce at their luncheon to-day. Lieutenant Lauzanne wasted no words, but in a fiery speech showed why France is determined to battle to the end. His opening message to the peo ple of Harrisburg was that the sister republics have so much in common, that the people of the two countries have the same heart, beating in common for the same objects, and giving their blood for those objects. "We have seen our villages burn ed to the ground, we have seen our i cathedrals destroyed, we have seen all the horror that is to be seen, and we know there are no good Ger mans, except those who are dead. Those can do no harm. The Germans kill women, they kill children, they even kill the trees, their lust for de struction is so great. "It is because we have seen these things that we say this is a holy war. We are fighting against evil and greed, and the power of hate. We are waging this war with our men, our women, our children and we are ready to give to our last man. When every man in France is dead the women will rise in arms." The speaker declared that among the allies there are no small nation and no great; all nations are great who light for liberty and justice. He added that above all the allies are fighting for the ideal of a respect for international law, and the war will continue until the Prussians realize that they are not the strong est but the weakest people, and can not dictate terms of peace, but must accept them. Speaking of the spirit of the French, he told of a woman with four sons in the French army. Three have been killed and one is now a prisoner in Germany. When she was told that her third son was killed, the messenger said: "Ah, madame, the women of France will pity you." "But, you are mistaken," she re plied. "The women of France would be wrong to pity me. They should envy me." Confident in West Lieutenant Lauzanne declared his perfect confidence in 'the situation on the west front. "I know the men on that front have not lost their heart, their cour age, or steadfastness. It is now as it was in 1914 at the battle of the Marne; their bodies may be falling 'back, but not their hearts. It will also be as it was at Verdun, 'They Khali Not Pass!' Never has their morale been better, and never has the fighting spirit of the sol diers named forth so pure." As a refutation of the repeated German statement that France is bled white, the Frenchman declared that there are now 2,740,000 men In the French armies, as against 1,500,- 000 in September, 1914. In 1914 the French were turning out 12,000 shells a day, he said. Now they arc mak ing 300,000 per day. During the four years eighteen billions have been subscribed by the people for the war. There are 475,000 French women working in munitions plants now, whereas there were but 25,000 at the beginning of the war. Alsace-Lorraine The speaker refuted the charge oft en made that Alsace-Lorraine is Ger man and rightfully demanded by Germany in 1871. He said that the southern part of Alsace was annexed by France through a vote of the Al satian people, and prior to that it had belonged to Switzerland. The remainder of Alsace was ceded to France by the Emperor of Austria by a treaty of 1648, which stated that Alsace was to be French "for ever," and in such a way that no other emperor will ever be able to claim a part of it." Lorraine waif ceded to France by a treaty of 1552 signed by the French king and the German princes. It is for the protection of small nations, the Lieutenant said, that all the \AUies ate now lighting. France, the speaker declared, has lost one million men in killed and wounded, but is prepared to tight to the end. "Yes," concluded the speaker, his voice ringing, "we have made our choice, we have chosen our way. It may be filled with deth and priva tion, but will never lead to present disgrace and future servitude. A Hun victory would be a degradation to humanity, and France is prepared to fight against such a fate with all its men, women and children until their last heartbeat." Lieutenant Lauzanne was presented by A. S. Patterson, president of the Chamber of Commerce, who presid ed. Following his address he was tendered a vote of thanks. As the speaker finished, the entire audience rose and applauded for many min utes. It was obvious that the Frenchman had brought a message which made a profound effect on his hearers.

GROSS TO ASK FOR TREE COMMISSION [Continued from First Page.] for the employment of a city forester for six months' and for the completion of a tree survey started more than two years ago, but neg lected last year. The Club's Letter The letter from the Civic Club fol lows; "The City Commissioners, Gentle men: "The board of directors of the Civic Club respectfully suggests to you that unless some action is taken at tince to preserve our shade trees Harrisburg may become a treeless town. The storms of the past two years have destroyed many of our most valuable trees, and others are dying from neglect and improper conditions all over the city. Some thing should be done at once to re place those destroyed and to prop erly care for the ones that remain. The Civic Club therefore requests that a Shade Tree Commission be appointed to serve without pay and to have charge of the trees of the city—to make a survey of those re maining and to prepare comprehen sive plans for future planting, so that what is planted hereafter may all accord with that ordered beauty that we hope to see in Harrisburg.
