on each other, under the directions
of trained and devoted teachers, ad
ministering u system of education
that reflects and expresses the best
thought and conscience of the times,
is to get some view of the possible at
tainment of demovracy in America, is
to got some assurance that Ahis gov
ernment of the people, by the people,
for the people is no longer an ex
periment, and shall not perish from
the earth, and that it will eventually
show to all peoples and nations the
way of government wherein the doc
trine of the brotherhood of man is
no idle dream, but rather tho vehicle
foy the attainment of the fullness of
life and liberty and the fruition of
happiness. Is it not something to
hope for that eventually our system
of public education shall be so broad
in its scope and so fine in its quality;
that it may afford the child of the
humblest an opportunity for all the
education ho is capable of absorb- \
ing, the best that money and talent,
can produce, and so fine that the 1
parent of financial means cannot at-|
ford to neglect it ?
Hope of tile War '
"There is a widespread feeling
throughout the land that when the
war shall be won and the soldiers
shall return, some things are going
to be different.' because not only the
men overseas who have helped win
the war, but the men here who have
helped win the war, will have learn
ci\ some things from contact with
</ach other that give them a differ
ent outlook on life; and this feeling
is sometimes referred to with appre
hension. But there is no need "or
apprehension. Let us hope that some
things will be different. Let us hope,
for instance, that through the.elimi
nation of a variety of forms of spey
cial privilege and through the bet
ter education of head and heart,
there will be a more general and
therefore a more equitable distribu
tion of the fruits of mental and
manual labor. Let us hope that the
strong man and the weak man, the
poor man and the man who is not
poor, the employer and the employe,
the man of high ideals and the man
of uncertain standards, the broad
man and the nnrrow* man, all now
serving together in the great public
school of the army at the front and
tho army behind the man behind the
guns, may settle down to the voca
tions of peaco, looking upon each
other through very different eyes,
and may have taken a long step to
ward the realization of tho brother
hood of man, and the fatherhood of
God, and be better prepared to solve
the problems of living upon the basis
of all for each and each for all.
"There will be restlessness when
the war Is over, but let us be thank

shall develop more rapidly than
they have been, both in quality and
scope. But if they shall, if we arc
to do the most we can do and ought
to do to make the world safe for

safe for the world, there must bo
more interest among the thinking
people of Harrisburg in our own
public schools, and in the public
school system, more willingness to
lend a hand in the development of
the schools, and more intelligent,

their administration.

FOR THE BELGIANS
Mrs. M. <l. Brumbaugh, "First
Lady of tlic State," Ims asked
full co-opcratlnii of linrrlshurK
ors in the Belgian Clothing Cam
paign in u statement issued, this
morning.

the garments into piles. Department
stores and many other small marts
are contributing, packing cases and
boxes for shipping the goods direct
to tho port of embarkation.
Melting l'ot
A second Red Crpss melting pot
i£ being formed with the articles
found in pockets. A book of en
graved name cards, several gold
watch chains, rubber bands, collar
buttons, matches by the dozen, spec
tacles, tailors' chalk and a like ar
ray, of odds and ends were found
in men's clothing. "Women don't
have pockets; they can't put powder
puffs in 'em," a worker explained.
Mrs. Martin G. Brumbaugh tele
phoned that she would bring some of
the Governor's clothing and some of
her own to be sent across the ocean.
"I surely want to do all I can," she
told a Telegraph representative.
The telephone at Red Cross head
quarters was kept busy all the day,
summoning motor messengers and
trucks, to homes of contributors. In
many neighborhoods, a woman
would volunteer to collect
clothing and several trucks were re
quired to carry the great quantity
to headquarters. Incidentally it is
requested that anyone having cloth
ing to contribute should call Red
Cross headquarters, 4884 on the
Bell; or Mrs. William Strouse, 1903
on the Bell, and a truck will call. It
is also emphasized that clothing
should be ready when the trucks call
because if it is not ready a second
trip is neeezsary.
Mrs. Brumbaugh has made the
following appeal in behalf of the
children of Belgium;
"The crying of the suffering chil
dren of Belgium for clothing should
touch the heart of every woman. All
garments not really needed now at
home should he given to fhe com
mittee at once. I urge you to search
the garrets, bureaus, wardrobes and
other storage places with a generous
heart. Give all you possibly can!
Even the mothers of the splendid
men in uniform" might add by giving
the clothes of their loved ones. It
would he a fitting gift to the cause
they gave to so fully and freely.
"Surely the women of America will
sec to it that these poor sufferers
are made warm in the approaching
winter weathaer."

the price quoted for the mixture is

Wheat flour is 85 cents per twelve:

usually in twelve-pound sacks.
Patriotic Necessity
The Food Administration of
Dauphin county is encouraging the
purchase of Victory flour by house
wives for two reasons. It complies
with the government wheat saving
program, by automatically insuring
tho purchase of substitutes with
wheat.
It saves labor for the retailers.
Clerks do not have to dip into bins
and weigh out substitutes when Vic
tory flour is purchased, as they do.
when they sell wheat flour. More
over it insures the use of the sub
stitutes, whereas householders who
purchase wheat flour often do not
make use of the substitutes. One
pound of cereal substitute must be
sold with every four pounds of wheat
flour.
Retail grocers said to-day that
only a fourth as much Victory flour
as wheat flour is being purchased by
their customers. They say this is
because the customers have not been
educated to its use, and when they
become accustomed to it, will pur
chase it exclusively and relieve
themselves of the necessity of pur
chasing and using substitutes sep
arately.
Experienced bakers say the Vic
tory flour as mixed by experienced
bakers can be used for almost any
use as can the wheat flour with as
good results.
Local millers manufacture Victory
flour. Local wholesalers have it in
stock.

Edge Wins Easily Tor
Jersey Senate Place
Trenton, X. J., Sept. 2 s.—The vic
tory of the organization candidates
in yesterday's primary election grew
in magnitude to-day with the tabu
lation of returns from more than
one-half of the districts in the
state. Governor Walter E. Edge was
an easy winner of the Republican
nomination for the long term of
United States Senator, defeating
Representative Edward W. Gray and
George L. Record by a vote of about
ten to one.
Although early returns indicated
that George W. La Monte, of Bound
Brook, former State Banking Com
missioner, had won the Democratic
.nomination for United States Sena
tor, long term, later figures pointed
to a close race between La Monte
and Charles O'Connor Hcnnessy. of
Hackensack. Both had a good lead
over Frank McDcrmit and Alexan
der Simpson."

the man who bought two will buy
four; the man who bought five will
buy 10.
Al least one man who bought $5,000

must buy bonds worth over $10,000,-
000. . t
"This will be a hard job," said
Donald McCormick, to-day, "but when
the people of the district remember
that they must be as energetic as
the boys in France—and that the
.winter capaign is going to launch
the winning spring drive on the
Huns, I think this bond quota will be
taken up very nicely. But none of
us can 'lie down' on the job. We
must all be on our toes from now
until the close of the campaign."
The following figures show what
will be expected of the district:
Harrisburg city, approximately
$6,000,000.
Steelton, approximately $300,000.
Dauphin County (not including
Harrisburg and Steelton), $1,800,000.

reform bill which, it is true, does not
fall within the jurisdiction pf the
Reichstag, but nevertheless engages
political circles in Germany far be
yond the Prussian frontiers."
4 Prussia Firm For Reform
Count Von Hertling asserted that
the Prussian government was firmly
resolved to have the bill accepted,
and to that end it would not hesitate
to use any rttenns constitutionally
available.
There must be no question
procrastination, he said. "Should we,
however," the Chancellor continued,
"not succeed in attuining our con
templated aim by parliamentary de
bate, then another way indicated by
the constitution will bo pursued."
Referring to the question of peace
the Chancellor then said that hu
manity shudders at the thought that
this war may bring others and the
question is engaging the attention
of more people as to the possibility
of creating an organization among
peace-needing nations which would
"set right in the place of might and
u peaceful solution instead of san
guinary battled." The Chancellor
proceeded:
"As is known, the President of
the United States laid down in four
teen points 'the guiding lines for a
conclusion of peace. On January 24
of this year I discussed in your
committee all these points and, re
garding the last, remarked that the
idea of a league of nations as sug
gested had my entire sympathy on
the condition that an honest will to
peace and the recognition of the
equal, rights of all states bf the
league were guaranteed.
'How necessary was this reserva
tion was shown by the statements
ot our enemies, who, in a league of
nations, thought of an aliance di
rected against Germany and her
allies.
"President Wilson in a message
on February 2 took a further step
in the same direction and laid down
four points or principles which in
his opinion should be applied in an
exchange of views. In my Reichs
tag speech of February 22-1 declared
myself in principle in agreement
with the possibility of discussing a
general peace on such a basis.
