It was the church's duty also, Mr. Brown said, "to provide the soul without which the League of Na tions cannot hope to succeed" by eradicating international suspicion through fostering the spirit of in ternational justice and good will. Declaring that the churches have emerged from the war as "a new national force in social warfare." Mr. Tippy pointed out that the gov ernment and national social agen cies were now appealing regularly through the church press to the people of the churches and direct ly to ministers, priests and rabbis. "Few realize as yet just how sig nificant this is," ho said. "Consider the vastness of the church as a so cial force. There are in the United States, 42,000,000 communicants of churches and 200,000 local churches. In the Protestant churches alone there are 115,000 ministers, 25,- 000,000 communicants, a great sys tem of colleges, hospitals and so cial agencies, and a powerful church press with millions of subscribers. These churches are highly organ ized and disciplined, and they need but to act unitedly and concertedly to become a vast educational in fluence in every community organ ization. This is exactly what is happening, and it is one of the outstanding ac complishments of the war. The churches need but to know their minds and to act aggressively and with public spirit to become a ben eficent factor in the turbulent era into which the world has entered." | Wilson Directs Civil Service Commission to Exempt Sick Soldiers By Associated Press. j Washington, May 7.

SACRED PALLIUM PRESENTED HIGH CHURCH LEADER Apostolic Delegate Confers Papal Symbol of Union in Philadelphia Cathedral Philadelphia, Pa.. May 7.—Fash ioned by the patient hands of nuns at Rome from the wool of two sacri ficial lambs and blessed on the feast of SS. Peter and Paul in the Eternal City, the Sacred Pallium, the sym bol of the union that binds the Metropolitan of the Philadelphia See to Pope Benedict XV, fulfilled its ultimate mission yesterday, when it was conferred upon Archbishop Dougherty in the Cathedral amid a ceremonial of magnificence and pomp. More than 600 members of the American hierarchy, including four archbishops, twenty bishops and three mitered abbots, attended the ceremony. The liturgical vestment, exempli fying a distinctive mark of Arch episcopal dignity, was conferred by Archbishop John Bonzano, the Apostolic Delegate. He character ized it as "the symbol of the union that binds the Archbishop to the Vicar of Christ." Until yesterday's imposing cere mony, Archbishop Dougherty has been functioning by a special dis pensation from Rome. Bestowal of the sacred insignia now instals the Metropolitan in the "fullness of the episcopal offices." He will wear the Pallium on certain feasts, such as Christmas and Easter. He may not wear it outside his province. If transferred to another Archdiocese, he must petition the Pope for an other Pallium. After his resigna tion he may no longer use it. When he dies it is buried with him. As on the occasion of his en thronement ten months ago, Arch bishop Dougherty yesterday was made especially happy by the pres ence of three immediate members of his family who attended the cere mony. There were his brother, Anthony Dougherty, Receiver of Taxes, of Girardville, and two sis ters, Mrs. McCormaok and Mrs. Monaghan. The latter is a member of the Mother of Sorrows parish, Forty-eighth street and Lancaster avenue. From Anthony Dougherty came a message to the Archbishop from .his mother, Mrs. Bridget Dougherty, of Girardville, now in her eighty-fourth year. She ex pressed regret that the infirmities of age prevented her from attending the ceremony. The conferring of the Sacred Pal lium upon Archbishop Dougherty marked the fourth time in the his tory of the See, covering a period of 110 years, that it has been placed over the shoulders of a Philadelphia archbishop. Those previously re ceiving it were Archbishops Wood, Ryan and Prendergast. The ceremony of investiture was preceded by Solemn Pontifical Mass, celebrated by Archbishop Bonzano. The ceremony opened at 10 o'clock with a procession led by the seminarians. In the long line that wended its way from the chap el in Summer street and down Eighteenth street to the Cathedral were Archbishops Patrick J. Hayes, of New York; John W. Shaw, of New Orleans; George W. Mundelein, of Chicago, and Edward J. Hanna, of San Francisco; members of re ligious orders, visiting clergy, mon signori, officers of the mass, and Edward J. Dumee, papal chamber lain; Peter F. Kernan, Martin Ma loney, papal marquis; James J. Ryan, knight of the order of St. Gregory, and Dr. Peter F. Moylan. The last five were the only laymen in the procession. The seminarians in their black robes were in vivid contrast to the monsignori in purple. Standing out in vivid relief was Abbott Obrecht, of the Trappist Monastery, at Geth semane, Ky. He was clad in white vestments. As Archbishop Dougherty entered the Cathedral, the seminarians' choir of seventy sang "Ecce Sacer dos Magnus. ' The choir was led by the Rev. James Boylan. The priests' choir of thirty, led by the Rev. Wil liam B. Kane, with tljg Rev. Wil liam Murphy at the organ, sang the "Gloria." The seminarians sang the "Kyrie," "Credo," "Sanctus" and "Benedict us." The priests sang the "Agnus Dei" and during the offertory the motet, "O Sacrum Convivium." The music was strictly liturgical. Among the bishops were the Rt. Rev. William D. Turner, who succeeded Archbishop Dougherty at Buffalo; the Rt. Rev. Thomas J. Walsh, of Trenton, N. J., who was Bishop Doughertys chancelor at Buffalo, and the Rt. Rev. Joseph R. Grimont, of Juneau, Alaska. Assisting Archbishop Bonzano at the mass were; The Right Rev. M. J. Crane, V. G., assistant priest; the Right Rev. H. T. Drumgoole, dea con; the Very Rev. Edmond J. W. Fitz-Maurice, subdeacon; the Right Rev. J. P. Turner and the Right Rev. Nevin F. Fisher, V. G., and the Archbishop Dougherty; the Rev. Rev. Thomas Tlmmins, chaplains to Archbishop Dougherty; the Rev. Thomas F. McNally, master of cere monies; the Rev. William P. Mc- Nally, the Rev. Eugene A. Kelly and Joseph McMahon, the latter a semi narian, assistant master of cere monies. Col. Kemper Helps All Disabled Soldiers to Get U. S. Compensation Colonel J. M. Kemper, in charge of the Harrisburg Recruiting Sta tion, 325 Market street, has been en listed by the Federal Board for Vo cational Education to assist in get ting In touch with disabled soldiers, and marines who have been or are about to be discharged from the United States service, that they may bo fitted to become self-supporting. Desiring to enlist every available possible agency, officials have gotten, into communication with Colonel Kemper because of the largo num ber of men from the service who call at recruiting stations for advice. "Briefly stated," the letter to Col onel Kemper says, "the proposition is a3 follows: the- Government will pay the expenses of a professional or vocational education for any man who has been discharged from the service and whom the Bureau of War Risk Insurance has declared to be a compensable case. In addition to paying the expenses of the edu cation, the man will be paid either a minimum of J65 a month, or the pay of his last month of-actlve serv ice, whichever is the greater, during the entire time that he is being educated." Colonel Kemper has requested that any interested persons get into com munication with him. SMOKELESS CHIMNEYS LINE THE ONCE BUSY VALLEY OF THE MEUSE District on Route From Devastated Louvain to City of Liege Stripped by Germans By Associated Press. Liege, May 7. —Along the route from devastated Louvain to this desolated city tall smokeless chim neys line the formerly prosperous valley of the Meuse. Idle coal miners, huge plants which belched fire and sizzled with the gurgle of the melt ing lead and the boiling steel are now silent and abandoned. There is no outward visible sign of devasta tion but a superficial examination of the inside of the plants reveals the fact that this district has been strip ped as thoroughly and more syste matically than the line of battle where the cannon roared for four years. The Cockerill Manufacturing Com pany employed 12,000 workmen, at the small arms factory "Fabrique Nationals" 4,500 skilled workmen manufactured revolvers and rifles, the invention of Browning, of Tex as; the Ougnee-Mariez plant manu factured steel machinery, locomotives and presses, 14,000 hands having been employed there. Now a few laborers wander like lost souls in the vast halls which seem im mense because of the removal by the Germans of all the machinery formerly filling up every available inch of floor space. They are repair ing the few dilapidated automobiles, machines and locomotives the Ger mans left behind in their deliberate BELL WILL HONOR 406 TH VETERANS Reception Friday Evening in Honor of Men Who Made History in France The Bell Telephone Company will tender a reception on Friday evening to the Harrisburg Division members of the Four Hundred and Sixth Tele graph Battalion, just returned from France. The Four Hundred and Sixth was made up entirely of employes of the Bell Telephone Company. It was one of the first two , such units to serve with the American Expedition ary Forces. Shortly after their arrival in France on August 20, 1917, they were Bent to Chaumont which had been select ed as General Pershing's headquart ers, where they installed the switch board and wired the headquarters so that it was ready when General Pershing arrived in September. Moved to Mnrne The Four Hundred and Sixth later moved to Marne and took part in the glorious advance to the Vesle River, familiarly known as the Chateau-Thierry operations. During this time it built lines across a river and was under artillery tire so heavy that on the night of July 15th, twelve direct hits by shell fire caused forty two breaks in the line which the bat talion had built and was maintain ing. Air raids were frequent, and there were sometimes several in one night. From the Marne-Vesle salient, the Four Hundred and Sixth was trans ferred to a location north of Nancy along the Moselle River. Here they figured in the reduction of the St, Mihiel salient. Later they participat ed in the battle of the Argonne, and the advance to the Meuse. In all of their operations they encountered the same sort of difficulties, and were subjected to the same sort of bombardment —if not heavier—as in the operations on the Marne-Vesle. After the armistice was signed the battalion was sent to Tonnerre, where they began to prepare for that niuch-'desired event, the return to America. Their next move was to the LeMans area, from where they were transferred to Brest. They sailed from that port on April 8, 1919, aboard the battle cruiser "Seattle," arriving in New York on Easter Sun day, April 20. Six days later the last formalities were completed; and a happy crowd separated and the men quickly scattered for home. Compliment* Men Brigadier-General Chief Signal Officer, paid the men a com pliment when he wrote: "It is a mat tter of pride with me to have such an organization serving with the Sig nal Corps and I feel that you officers and men of the battalion may return to the United States with the ap proval of your own consciences, and heartily deserving the well-earned plaudits which I am sure your fel low citizens will accord to you." There are nineteen members of the Four Hundred and Sixth in the Har risburg Division that are to be en tertained by the Bell Company on Friday evening and many interesting tales will be told. They are: Captain, V. L. C. Hasskarl, Lieutenant F. F. Lutz, Master Signal Electrician C. E. Miller, sergeants, first class, George K. Erb and J. M. Hamilton; ser geants, G. A. Donbaugh, P. R.

The managers of these plants know where their machinery has been removed. They have the names of the firms in the various cities of Germany which are now manufac turing with these stolen machines the products that in a few monthß they will attempt to unload upon the world's markets. They are dissatis fied and bitter in their comment be cause they feel they have been ne glected by the Peace Conference. They feel Germany should have been ordered to return at once the stolen machinery or that they should at least have been permitted to enter Germany and remove them to their plants. They are not short of steel. One of the former manufacturers declared he had 2,000,000 pounds of steel on hand, but no machinery. A manager of one plant expressed himself as more than disillusioned. "Times have changed since the arm istice when Belgium was everywhere cited as incarnating the very spirit of patriotism and heroism, when promises were made that fighting would go on until Belgium should be integrally restored, financially, economically and politically. Your brave American boys who came to Europe and died with a smile, thought to avenge violated Belgium fighting desperately for its own and the very world's freedom at the threshold of civilization." The American Army Gains Weight Through Good Food A few days ago Col. James B. Kemper, In charge of the Harris burg recruiting district, with head quarters at 325 Market street, visit ed Philadelphia on official business. While there he was the guest of the quartermaster in charge of supplies, and had dinner with the boys on duty there. The visit of the colonel was unexpected, but he was not surpris ed at the elaborate spread set out before the boys at their noonday meal. Roast pork, apple sauce, sweet potatoes, asparasus, mashed potatoes pie, doughnuts, cake, coffee, bread and butter, were on the bill of fare. TJhe colonel complimented the men on their menu. He said that this was not unusual, but similar to the messes throughout the service. "The American army is coming back to' these shores 18,000 tons huskier than when it sailed over seas, which reveals why the return ing doughboys literally burst out of the clothing they left at home." Said he, "The average increase in weight in the American army was twelve pounds to a man. This is due in a very large measure of course to the seemingly limitless flow of wholesome foods into the training camps and to France. This war has been the healthiest in history. The test we apply is the number of deaths from disease. Our record in this was was only eight per thou sand per year." LIEUT. 0\ WAY HOME Glcnside, Pa., May 7.—Lieutenant Harvey H.

Probably no man in America was ever better qualified to successfully treat the diseases peculiar to women than Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. The cases that come to him run into many thousands, giving him an experience that rarely comes to any one man. Dr. Pierce found that in nearly every case there were certain vegetable growths which rarely failed to give prompt relief in those feminine disorders from which so many women suffer. He combined these roots and herbs into a tem perance medicine that he called Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, for that is precisely what it was. This medicine is sold in both liquid and tablet form by druggists everywhere. Favorite Prescription is a distinct remedy for women and acts directly upon the organs that characterize the Bex. It is not necessary to take a long course of treatment with this standard medicine. A weakly, sick ly, backachy, headachy, nervous, de spondent woman, with regular or Ir regular p&ins— with feminine disor ders that come in youth or middle age—is pretty sure to find in Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription the exact remedy that her condition calls for, and to find it after a very few doses are taken. Why women should allow themselves to stay sick when a very little money spent for this remedy will probably make them well, is something no one can explain. All women who suffer from femi nine disorders are invited to write the Faculty of the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., for free confidential consultation and advice, no charge being made for this high profes sional service. This will enable every woman to benefit by the ad vice of the distinguished corps of physicians which Dr. Pierce has gathered about him in his celebrated Buffalo Institution. When constipation is present with feminine disorders. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets should bo taken I along with Favorite * Prescription. Try them now! U BOAT CHASERS AID RED CROSS IN GREEK ISLANDS Transport Personnel and Supplies to Refugees On the Islands Ajtliens, May 7.—ln its already extensive and grouping work in the Greek Islands, the American Red Cross has the co-operation of the United States Navy. Six submarine chasers have been placed at the dis posal of the Red Cross for trans porting personnel and supplies to the various islands where refugees are concentrated. On the Island of Mytilene the conditions of the Greek refugees who fled there from Asia Minor five years ago has become desper ate. Red Cross workers are reg ularly visiting all the towns on the island, and clothing has been made to about 25,000 of the 52,000 ref ugees. At the outbreak of the war in 1914 the Greeks were driven out of Asia Minor. There were about 3,000,000 of them there before the war. More than 500,000 escaped to the islands in the Aegean. Thou sands were massacred. The others, driven out of their homes by the Turks and sent inland, are now re turning, only to find their homes either destroyed or occupied by Turks who refuse to move. Prior to the Allied occupation armed bands of Turks roamed the country side plundering and murdering Greeks wherever found. Get Six Cents a Day The refugees in the Aegean islnds intend to return to Asia Minor as soon as conditions permit. At present the Greek government gives each refugee six cents a day. The American Red Cross is de voting much attention to the pre vention of further epidemics such as the typhus scourge which took such a heavy toll at Mytilene. Ef forts are being made to relieve over crowding and consequent unsani tary conditions which enable epi demics to £ain headway. Food is scanty and costly on the islands and most of the refugees are underfed, even in the large towns where conditions are better than in the outlying villages. The clothing situation is the worst, fpr after buy ing food the purchase of clothes is out of the question for the refugees. Nearly all of these persons are in rags. The hospitals are hort of medicines and other supplies and have been crowded on account of the prevalence of influenza. Clothing Needed Clothing, blankets and medicine are needed on all the islands. SHORTAGE OF COAL EXPECTED SOON The forehanded consumer will do well to buy his supply now. There will he a tremendous boom throughout tlie country following three or four months of readjust ment. The expected rush will very likely cause a coal shortage and consequent higher prices. Consumers have been very backward in placing orders for coal. Consequently, this demand will come with a rush later on. When it does, some buy ers are likely to find a car shortage, due to the crop movement, ana u coal shortage due to the present decreased operation at the mines. We hear a great deal of unemployment, but the situation does not apply to the coal mines. Native labor, as a class, will not work in the mines. The foreign labor is leaving in droves. They have bought Liberty Bonds and many, of them have saved enough to make them comparatively independent. These men are withdrawing their savings and returning to Europe as fast as they can obtain passports. Unless the consumer uses his coal bin this summer for storing coal for next winter's supply, he is either going to pay a higher price for his coal or not be able to get all he wants at any price.

The American Red Cross is supplying clothing to the refugees. American women run the work shops where clothing Is made up into garments on the three Islands , of Mytilene, Chlas and Samos. American Red Cross men field workers often travel on donkeyback up into the villages on the moun tains and distribute food and clothing. American doctors and nurses provide medicine and attend to the sick. Of the 52,000 refugees on My tilene 22,000 are in the town of Mytilene and its suburbs; the others are scattered about In sixty two villages. Of the 20,000 refugees on Chios part are sheltered in old houses and the rest in wooden bar racks, divided with bagging and old carpets and subdivided with car pets into "rooms," each accommo dating a family of from five to ten persons. The islands of Lemnos, Imbros, Tenedos and Saraothrace also are being served with Red Cross supplies from Mytilene; Oinousa Is served from Chios and Icaria from Samos. When th American Red Cross of ficers arrived at Mytilene with their cargo of supplies scenes of the greatest enthusiasm took place. The party was escorted to a carriage, the horses were unhitched and the car riage drawn by a cheering crowd to the residence of the Governor Gen eral, who commandeered a private home and placed it at the disposal of the arrivals. All living expenses were paid by the Greek government.
