Practically every armory in a place
where there is a college or advanced
school where the -War Department
has started a training class has been
turned over to the national author
ities by the State Armory Board.
In places where the armories are
in use for hospital use arrangements
will be made later for their use by
students enrolled in army classes or
where high schools are being given
instruction in military matters.
These armories are also in use by
unit 3 of the Reserve Militia.
Wheat Away Up— Pennsylvania's
acreage sown to wheat will equal
and possibly exceed the record
breaking total of 1,540,000 acres re
ported cut this year according to
reports which are coming to the
State Department of Agriculture.
In many districts tractors have
handled the plowing and drilling
and made up for the shortage of
farm labor due to the war and in
dustrial demands. The acreage
given to wheat in Pennsylvania has
shown a marked advance in the
last few years. It went from
1,338,000 in 1910 to 1,373,500 in 1917
and the 1918 report showed 1,450,- j
590 acres. There will be a big ;
increase in rye and buckwheat acre- |
age compared to former years.
Certificates Filed—The Public Ser- j
vice Commission has announced the j
filing of the following certificates of i

State Leases Buildings—The State
Board of Public Grounds and Build- j
ings has leased Ihe old United Evan- !
gelical Publishing House at Second!

The remodeling to suit the building i

ward, of McKeesport, Republican j
nominee for Secretary of Internal I
Affairs, who was here yesterday, said I
that Allegheny county would give a]

May Set Aside Law—While no
formal statement has been made In
regard to the manner in which the
federal railroad administration will
consider tho "full crew" law in op
erating railroads in Pennsylvania
during the war there is reason to
believg that emergency regulations
will be made which will virtually set
It aside. The formal action will
likely be taken in the decision harffl
ed down recently by the Public Ser
vice Commission holding that the
Pennsylvania railroad had violated
the "full crew" act in huuling coal
trains on what is known as the Se
wickley and Bushy Run branches.
In these cases the company claimed
that It was ji yard movement, but

MORE NURSES
ARE NEEDED
Work of Emergency Hospital
Handicapped by Lack
of Help
The decline of the influenza epi
demic in Steelton is .no sign that
help is no longer needed at the
Emergency Hospital according to
the army physicians in charge.
While the influenza was at its Worst
there was plenty of volunteer help,
but now thht the epidemic is defin
itely under cohtrol volunteers evi
dently are under the impression that
help is no longer needed. This sup
position is a mistake. Help is needed
and needed very badly, and unless
help Is forthcoming immediately
there will be serious suffering at the
hospital. Nurses and nurses' aicjs
are the most in demand.
Help is also needed in the hospital
laundry, and for the work the Red
Cross Chapter of Steelton has of
fered to pay and is willing to ar
range suitably hours for those who
will voluti eer.
Accurate Information as to the
number of cases now in Steelton is
not available, as very few of the
physicians seem to have the time
to make out complete reports, and
some few indeed seem not to be In
clined to do so. This state of af
fairs makes the work of the board
of health very difficult and is to be
regretted Fifty new cases were re
ported Sunnay night, but according
to the health officer this report Is by
no means accurate.
At the emergency hospital there
are now 79 patients being treated,
with five deaths during the night
and morning.
In addition to the hospital work
the army physicians are now help
ing the overworked local physicians |
and are treating patients in their j
own homes.
T'he cases treated at the emer-!
gency hospital are mostly those of
patients who for various reasons
could not secure the proper attention
in their own homes, or where a num
ber were sick in the same house. An
example is that of the Banks fam
ily, in which the parents and nine
children were taken sick at about
| the same time. The whole family Is
now being treated at the hospital.

I "The Live "Always Reliable" I
I Why Buy Poor Clothes? I
| The only reason we know why men buy I
poor clothes is because they're looking harder at the price
than at the quality of the garments They forget that if there's' five II
or ten dollars difference in the price there must be at least that much
difference in quality.
I And most men will agree that it is worth the extra I
five or ten dollars to know that their clothes are made right so that they
give the long service that they want.
You're sure to get all you expect if you

tion assures you that you'll get your money's worth and more.
