BISHOP ASKS FOR
THaNRSGIVING
DAY DONATIONS
i-iberality Urged to Sylvan
Heights and Paradise
Protectory
Especially liberal Thanksgiving
Contributions for the Sylvan Heights
Orphanage and the Paradise Pro
tectory. were requested by the Kt.
Rev. Philip R. McUevitt. bishop of
the Catholic Diocese of Harrlsburg.
The bishop's appeal follows:
, "The recent epidemic lias left
thousands of orphans in the State of
Pennsylvania. Of the number of
► children needing care, the Diocese
of Harrisburg will have a due pro
portion, and consequently must meet
a greater responsibility than has
hitherto rested upon the Sylvan
Heights Home For Girls and the
Paradise Protectory For Boys. Re- '
cause o" the increase in the number ,
of children in both institutions, the (
coming Donation Day —on Thanks- I
giving Day. the 2Stli of November— j
should call forth a generous and j
whole-souled response from the .
faithful In every parish. The con- j
tributions in money, clothing and j
food should be sent to Mother M. j
Scholastica, Sylvan Heights Home,
Harrlsburg, or to Mother M. Cordata, |
* Paradise Protectory, Abbottstown.
"In view of the conditions which j
now prevail in regard to destitute j
children, we appeal to all Catholics
to take into their homes a boy or ;
girl from the Sylvan Heights home i
or from the Padadise Protectory, j
Those who seize the opportunity to ;
become father and mother to one j
of Christ's little ones give one of >
the strongest evidences of truly >
t Christian living. The Great Judge :
will reveal, on the day of judgment. J
t the priceless value of such charity.
The Mass Pro Gratiarum Actione
is to be said in all churches ot the ,
Diocese of Harrlsburg. Thanksgiving
Day, the 28th of November, in grati
tude to Almighty God for the coin
ing of peace.
Benediction of the Blessed Sacra
ment and the "Te Deum" should
follow the Mass of Thanksgiving.
As a further evidence of the ap
preciation of the blessing of peace,
tlie first Sunday of Advent is up- 1
pointed a day of general communion j
in cverv parish. Sincerely in Christ, i
PHILIP R. McDEVITT..
Bishop of Harrisburg. :

Barber Gives Recipe
For Gray Hair
Tells How to llakc n Home-made
Gray Hair Remedy
Mrs. A. E. O'Brietl, who has been
6 i- barber in New York City for many
years, made the fotlowing statement:
"Gray, streaked or faded hair can
be immediately made black, brown
or light brown, whichever shade you
•?ire. by the use of the following I
remedy that you can make at home: i
"Merely get a small box of Orlex ;
powder at any drug store. It costs
very little and no extras to buy. Dis
solve it in water and comb it through
the hair. Full directions for mixing
and use come in each box.
"You need not hesitate to use Or
lex, as a $lOO.OO gold bond comes
in each box guaranteeing the riser
that Orlex powder docs not contain
silver, lead, zinc, sulphur, mercury,
aniline, coal-tar products or their
derivatives.
"v "It does not rub off, ia not sticky
or gummy and leaves the hair fluffy.
It will make a gray haired person
took twenty years younger."

WINTER CLOSES
RUSSIAN FRONT;
HELD ICEBOUND
Bolshevist Gunboats Forced
to Withdraw Along
Dvina River •
I By Associated rrcss
Archangel, Nov. 26.—Winter has
I begun in earnest over the whole
Northern Xtussian front. All the rlv
j ers are icebound and the Bolsheviki
gunboats, which have long menaced
the American and Allied forces on
the Dvina, have been forced to with
draw to escape'being frozen in. The
' Rolsh<?vists, however, have mounted
i big guns along the front south of the
j Allied armies.
Operations are limited to spas
| modic artillery exchanges, t but the
> Bolshevist forces art reported to be
receiving heavy reinforcements. The
j freeze up, while bringing relief on
| the Dvina front, increases the dan
i ger on others, as the once Impassable
j swamps now are frozen, making pos
l sible hushwacking flank attacks by
I the enemy.
Vladivostok, Nov. 26.—Half dead
: from starvation and disease, many
; beyond help, 1,321 survivors out of
j the original total of 2,100 Bolshevik
I prisoners* and refugees in a train sent
j across Siberia by the Czeclio Slovak
j troofis fighting in Samara, European
; Russia, have arrived at Nikolsk, near (
\ Vladivostok. The journey from the
1 Ural mountains to the Pacific coast
j occupied six weeks,
j The survivors reached Nikolsk in
j forty cars. The train carried no pro
! visions and was without sanitary
| equipment of any kind.
I Of the eight hundred persons miss
j ing from the original total some were
I shot while trying to escape from the
j train. Others lost their lives by
i throwing themselves from the car
i windows. Disease, starvation and ex
' posure accounted for the remainder.
When the Czecho-Slovak forces
captured Samara they loaded the in
mates of the jails into trains indis
criminately with the Bolshevik pris-
I oners of war.
The American Red Cross at Vladi
vostok has rushed doctors to Nikolsk
to aid the arrivals who are in a ter
rible condition. Some persons died
on the ground after being removed
| from the railroad Cars.
McAdoo May Be One
of Peace Commissioners;
Bryan Suggested, Too
Washington, Nov. 26.—William
i Gibbs McAdoo may go to Europe as
: one of the peace commissioners
from the United States. This was

a possible successor to Mr. McAdoo
I as Director General of Railroads.
Washington heard last night the
suggestion that President Wilson
seriously is considering the naming
! of Wlliam Jennings Bryan as one of
, thy American delegates to the peace
I conference at Versailles. Bryan's
views on universal peace are widely !

been his favorite theme upon tlio

Spending Money Wisely
Continues Prosperity
We have just passed through a period of years when
millions of men and women have been busily employed
making munitions for war. Other millions of men have
been in military service. The result has been unparalleled
prosperity, because everybody willing to work could
secure work at good wages. Conservation of material
and labor, however, was essential to build a successful
military organization.
We must now rebuild a successful industrial organiza
tion. Every man and woman released from military
service or munition work must be provided with remun
erative employment in order to maintain prosperity.
War-time conservation is no longer essential, except on
food and fuel.
Buy what you need and what you have denied yourself
of because of patriotic reasons. Every purchase you
make creates a demand on some factory and thus gives
employment,to someone. The Government has removed
all business restrictions. The more building and buying
that are done now, the more employment will be created
for the boys coming back from "Over There."
This docs not mean to spend foolishly and extrava
gantly, but there is no longer any need to deny yourself
of the comforts or pleasures your earnings can buy. The
best conservation in peace times is to invest in legitimate
enterprise and buy the most dependable merchandise
