"Lick Hell Out of
the Kaiser"—McAdoo
Secretary of the Treasury Mc-
Adoo, In his capacity as head of the
country's railroad system, was in
Pittsburgh a day or two ago and a
reporter plumped this question at
him:
"People are afraid, when we have
Germany about whipped, and the
time comes to make peace, that
America will be too generous in the
terms of peace. Do you believe
this?"
Secretary McAdoo stopped, turn
ed slowly and, putting every bit of
emphasis possible in his voice, grat
ed out:
"The thing to do is first lick hell
out of the Kaiser, and then think
about peace terms."
A few moments later, he ampli
fied this statement, dictating slowly
that no misinterpretation might be
put on his words, as follows: •
"Since I have been in rublic life
I have been struck with the psychol
ogy which is manifested by the ex
traordinary extent to which people
constantly express themselves in
terms of fear. One hears the ex
pression all the time 'I am afraid,"
or 'I fear,' so and so. For my part.
I have no respect for councils of
fear, especially in war times. There
is no reason to be afraid, no reason
to be concerned about the terms of
peace.
"The first thing to do is to lick
the Kaiser, and if he is licked to a
frazzle there will be no trouble about
the terms of peace. In other words,
the kind of peace terms we get will
depend upon the thoroughness with
which we finish the Kaiser. Above
alt things, there is no occasion for
America to be afraid of anything so
long as she is resolute to put all her
power and resources into the war
until the job is done.
"No one who has been over this
country from coast to coast, and
from Canada to the Gulf, and come
in contact with the people, can fail
to realize how thoroughly America
is aroused and how irrevocably reso
lute she is to finish the Kaiser, and
his gang of military despots before
she stops."

FOR MORE SHOPS
Altoona Officials Hear of Big
Improvements to Start
at Once
Altoona, Pr... Sept. IS.—Two ex
tensive projects, involving an expen
diture of about $2,000,000, designed
to greatly increase the capacity of
both the Altoona and Juniata shops,
will be carried out by the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company, work upon
both to be started at once. This is
the first of many extensive improve
ments on the main line of the Penn
sylvania railroad. Plans are now un
der way for big changes at Harris
burg. Marysville and Enoln. Federal
officials will soon visit that city to
complete details.
The capacity of the power pia.it
at South Altoona will be increased
to furnish electric power for the
machine shops at Twelfth street, tho
Altoona car and the Juniata
shops, eliminating the electric power
plants at each of these departments,
except for heating and other minor
purposes.
Shop Additions
The erecting ship at Juniata will
be extended 240 feet; the present
1 scale shop will be moved into the
I paint shop, and it will be rebuilt at
| a scale shop; the tool room will be
, moved from the second floor of the
machine shop to the present scaie
; shop, which will be enlarged for that
i purpose, and an additional riveting
tower for the boiler shop will be
I built and an extension built to one
of the blacksmith shops.
Two giant f.,000 kilowatt genera
: tors will be installed in the new
power plant, to be installed at South
Altoona. and one of them is nbw
about ready for delivery and will be
j installed before winter sets in, so
: that the plant will be able to take
j care of all che emergencies that are
I likely to rrise during the winter.
Will Save Coal
In carrying out those plans the
| cojnpany will save at least 20.000
j tons of coal annually, for it will be
I an economy in fuel to generate all
; the power at one place. Work on the
necessary additions to the power
i plant at South Altooya will be start
ed at once by the workmen of the
j company.
The consolidation of the power
plants involves the much larger out
lay of monev than the Juniata shop
, project, or about $1,500,000. All the
material and equipment has been
ordered and the work will proceed as
| rapidly as possible.

May Eliminate Mail
Trains on Reading
Reading. Pa., Sept. 13.—"With the!
withdrawal of the passenger trains ;
oh the main line the express and
mail business is likely to go. too.
There is n movement on foot with a
view of saving equipment, manpower
and fuel.
Should all this happen, it Is Uke-|
ly that the Wilmington and North- i
em trains wi'.h be operated from the!
Pennsylvania station and the Sehuyl-i
kill and Lehigh train may also start j
from there. The Lancaster and Co
lumbia trains will not be disturbed, j
Long Work Ahead to
Complete P. R. R. Branch I
According to the statement of
the Walter R. ClifTe Co.. contractors,
it will take at least eighteen months
before the branch of the Pennsylva
nia railroad trom Pomeroy to Coates
ville will be completed. The vol
ume of business has grown to such
proportions at Coatesvllle during the
past few years that it was found nec
] essary to have a direct connection
with the Pennsylvania. For years
i the Reading has been handling all
of the traffic. It is estimated that
the cost of the new line and ;he
yard at Pomeroy will reach nearly
$1,000,000.
Railroad Notes
The n£w siding at White House
lone for the ordnance depot has been
completed.
Riley Williams, traffic manager at
ordnance depot leaves to-day for his
home in N-w York city. On his re
turn he will take chnre-e Delaware
City.
Timely discovery of a broken
flange in a ear loaded with pigiron,
probably saved a bad wreck on the
Harrisburg local freight Wednesday
night at Lewistown. The train was
going east when Milton Arbogast, the
watchman, saw it. and warned John
Minier, a brakeman. *
Passenger trains of the I,ehigh

Adoo announced.
Cars for Major Gray's forces at

special train taking the men to Dela

POINTS FOR BEGINNERS *
If you are a novice in drying veg
etables and fruits, .begin with a
small quantity of some one product.
Have it very fresh, and prepare ac
cording to directions. As a general
rule, products to be dried are cut
into slices or shreds with the skin
removed. Sharp knives, a good
board and a vegetable and fruit
slicer are needed implements.
In using artificial heat be careful

to start at a comparatively low tem
perature and gradually increase the
temperature. One hundred and ten
degrees-Fahrenheit as a minimum to
150 degrees Fahrenheit maximum is
a practical general rule. Oven ther
mometers are almost indispensable
for reliable work. Write to the Na
tional War Garden ■ Commission,
Washington, for 4 free drying man
ual. which will be sent on request.
Send two-cent stamp for postage.
The actual time for drying cannot
be given: it varies with atmospheric
conditions, apparatus and judgment
exercised by person in charge. A
little experience will make it easy
to determine when products are suf
ficiently dried. Fruits should be
rather leathery and pliable, but no
moisture should come to the sur
face when pressed. Vegetables
should appear slightly more dry, but
should not snap or crackle. Berries
are dry enough if they stick to the
hand but do not crush when
squeezed. If dried too hard,-fruits
and vegetables will not resume their
natural shape when cooked . The
Commission will be glad to answer
any questions written on one side of
the paper and sent in a self-ad
dressed, stamped envelope.
Advice to the Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
HE HAPPENS TO BE MARRIED
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Will you please be kind enough to
advise me in the following matter?
WE SELL FOR LESS
1 have been married almost a year.
Now. there is a foolish young girl
near my husband's place of business
who lias repeatedly requested friends
of his to introduce him to her. These
friends in question have told me
about it each time, but they did not
tell the girl that he was married, only
saying that he did not care to meet
girls near his work.
She is making every effort to meet
him, and J am really very unhappy
over it. Therefore, would it be un
dignified of me to stop this girl and
tell her that the man she desires to
become acquainted with is my hus
band?
Thanking you in advance, for a kind
answer. 1 am.
"ANXIOUS."
I think it would be more dignified
if the friends you mention would tell
the young woman that the man she is
making stich heroic efforts to meet
is married.
Indeed. I cannot imagine why they
did not do so in the first place, and
save every one concerned trouble.
She is probably only young and silly
and will turn her attention to some
one else when she discovers the man
is another woman's husband.
