PLUVIUS WORKS WITH FUEL HEAD TO DARKEN CITY Beats Administrator in Inaug urating Lightless Nights; Hour of Total Gloom The lightless night prevailed in Harrisburg to an extent never con templated by the fuel administra tion. When the series of electrical storms which passed over the city Played havoc with the machinery of the Harrisburg Light and Power Company plant, the city began to conserve light to an extent the fuel administrator would never dare to suggest. Street lights went out early In the evening, and came on only fitfully until the service was fully resumed near midnight. The entire city was without street light for an hour in the evening, and many parts of the city were without street lighting for several hours. Many houses and buildings were lightless during the early evening. The storm charged the air with electricity to such an extent that tne high power conducting wires were overcharged,* resulting in the burning out of wires. About 8 o'clock shortly after repairs had been made, a bolt of lightning struck near the ■Laght and Power Company plant, wrecking part of the system. It was nearly four hours 'before repairs were made. Shortly before midnight street lighting was resumed, and the residences and buildings began to get service a little later. Complaints Are Few There were few complaints *be cause of lack of service for electric lighting last night. It was known to be the first lightless night, and the dwellers in the city have been so im-, bued with the ideas of patriotic sacrifice that not a word was utter- | ed against the darkness by those who Don't Be Bald How to Make Hair Grow Strong, Thick and Ivustrous Few of us get bald In a day and we all have ample warning when our hair is thinning out.

In the business section those who were abroad said this morning it was impossible to see a few feet ahead into the enveloping gloom. It was impossible to discern where sidewalks ended and streets began, while buildings were only shadowy blots against gloomy* background. Those compelled to go about during the storm had to pick their way slowly and without the aid of guid ing lights. Cigar ends glowed like -lightning bugs" Jn the gloom, and wsre almost the only illumination. Flashlights and lanterns were press ed into service, while houses piped for gas were illuminated with that means of light. Kerosene and candles came into their own last night, while many dwellers went to bed in the early hours of the evening. When the light service was finally resumed, the city resumed only a trifle of its customary nightly bril liancy. Street lights burned, but that practically was the only outside il lumination. Theater signs, theater entrances, hotel and restaurant en trances. sidewalk signs, display win dows and outside decorative lights, | were conspicuous by their absence : of illumination. It was lightless night ! and a sample of what four nights I each week will be hereafter. Ross A. Hlckok. county fuel ad ministrator. said this morning that some confusion regarding the light ing of display windows was appar ent last night. The order deolares that light for all store, show or dis plays windows, or signs in show win dows. shall be discontinued on Monday. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings of each week, and under no consideration may any lights be burned In the windows be tween sunrise and sunset. Viola tion of the order will be punished by a $5,000 fine or two years In prison, or both. A fuel administra tion agent will make a round of the city to-night to see that this order is obeyed, it was said by the fuel administrator.

HAItRISBURG TELEGRAPH BEEKEEPERS ARE NEEDED IN PENNA. Shortage of Sugar Gives State Department of Agriculture Work to Do An active cam- V\ \ ® //) paign to interest V*v\\ JfTZy a " owners of v\\\ A orchards and bee Industry and the production of honey -from the II JtKlUnwtVv lowers Is being jfejJlKljKHl. waged by' the Bu -1 re au of Zoology vania Depart ment of Agriculture. Field meet ings are being held In the various counties and much Interest is being shown in the advanced methods of honey production. Mr. Greene says: 'The shortage of sugar and its' rigid supervision Is felt ly all and the most wholesome substitute is gathered by the honey see*,. Hundreds of tons of honey recreted In the flowers Is going to waste in this state and farmers nev er an opportunity to expand production and consumption as that of the present time. Beekeeping is one of the most profitable side lines to farming and it is almost an es sential industry for the orchard farm, as the advantages of polleniza tion are of as much value as the honey itself. Two hundred and fifty million pounds of honey is the annual av erage yield of honey in the United otates. This allows two and a half pounds per capita, three per cent, of the annual per capita consumption of sugar. The total amount of su gar in the nectar of the flowers in Pennsylvania greatly exceeds the amount of a'l the sugar sweets con sumed by the people in the state. Nothing more patriotic or more bus inesslike could be done than to have universal interest in beekeeping and allow the little honey bees to make ply shortage in our sugar sup- Meetings for the latter part of July and August have been arranged in a number of counties.
