pate In the labor demonstration there
in protest against enforcement of
war-time prohibition. Virtually ev

al Association of Letter Curriers. T.
F. Flaherty, of the National Federa
tion of Federal Employes, and E. J.
Ryan, of the railway association.
It says that Postmaster General
Burleson has pursued a labor policy
in conflict with President Wilson's
principles and has characterized as
"silly" the right of collective bar
gaining. The Postmaster General is
charged with having "ruthlessly in
vaded the right of employes."
The resolution continues: "Burle
son's archaic c.nd autocratic attitude
, has resulted in demoralized service,
. discontented and resentful employes,
confused and choked industrial pro
cesses, a people wrathful and Indig
nant and a long series of adminis
trative blunders."

Purify the Blood and You Will
Learn the Joy of
Living
if you are easily tired, nervous,
fretful, pale-cheeked, dull-eyed, and
seem to be growing weaker every
day, or if you .suffer from headaches,
dizzy spells and sleepless nights, it's
a sign that your system is not receiv
ing enough nourishment - that your
blood is thin, watery and impure.
The Blood is the fuel of the body,
and like fuel under a boiler that is
pure and full of energy, supplies
plenty of steam, power and life. But
if the Blood is watery and impure,
it, like poor fuel, gives forth little
energy and soon the wheels refuse
to move. Start now t.o regain vour
health, your old-time "pep" and vigor
by taking a little Novo San (new
blood) 3 times a day.
Novo San, the new red blood
builder, lias been thoroughly tested
and tried out by responsible phys
icians of large practice and remark
aide results have been obtained, espe
pioally so in Skin Diseases, Rheuma
tism, Anaemia, Nervousness, Faulty
Nutrition and Weak and Rundown
Conditions following Grippe, Fever
and other Wasting Diseases.
One physician says "Whenever a
person is weak and run down, pale,
hollow-eyed and nervous, broken in
health and spirit, Novo San is
needed."
Novo San can now be obtained at
H. C. Kennedy or Geo. A. Gorges, in
packages containing 12 days' treat
ment. Sold on the following guar
antee basis lf you are not satis
fied or if you do not feel at least 50
per cent better after taking Novo San
regularly according to directions for
3 2 full days, return the box to your
druggist and get your money.

By Associated Press.
WUkcs-Burrv, Pa., June 11. —For-
mer President William H. Taft de
livered tlie principal oraUon at the
graduation exercises of the Wllkea-
Barre Institute for Toung Women
In this city last evening. Mr. Taft
spoke before a great audience at
Iron Temple and made a strong ar
gument for the ratification of the
covenant of the League of Nations.
He declared that the proposed
league "is the result of the demand
of the people on the other side who
won this war that there shall be as
a result an assurance of future
peace."
Mr. Taft declared that In the
covenant there Is no super-sover
eignty and that the idea of a super
sovereignty was rejected for a num
ber of reasons, among them the
barrier raised by the American con
stitution.
When asked upon Ills arrival In
this city whether the resolution of
fered in the Senato by Senator
Knox would force the United States
to make a scparato peace with Ger
many, Mr. Taft replied: "There Is
too much to the Knox resolution for
any man to answer it off hand."
Ho added that he would first have
to digest the contents of the reso
lution fully before he would attempt
to make any comment or offer any
comment or argument on the points
presented by Senator Knox. Con
tinuing, Mr. Taft said his stand
would bo for the League of Na
tions and against any objections
that might be raised against the
covenant.

FINAL PLANS MADE
FOR SCHOOL OUTING
(Continued From First Page)
it was decided that each building be
represented by its best three spellers,
who are to bo selected before June
14.
The only expense in attending this
picnic will bo car fare, and it is un
derstood, of course, that each one
provide his own lunch. The traction
company will sec to it that many
extra cars are on the Job to take care
of the great crowds.
The picnic will last all day, punc
tured with many a novelty. A fine
program of singing is being devised
by Prof. E. G. Rose, who will look
after this activity, and the sewing
contest is bound to keep all hands
on the jump. This is exclusively for
lady teachers, who will be asked to
show their skill and speed, starting
with "threading the needle," in a
varied competition.
The picnic will be opened with a
relay race, starting from the Tele
graph Building at 11 o'clock sharp
and finishing at Paxtang Park, the
contestants being Boy Scouts. Any
troop is welcome to send in entries.
Each runner will carry a Telegraph
hot off the press, turning his paper
over to the man who relays hlr.i.
The Tolegraph Cup, held now by
Harris School, the property of the
school winning it three times, will
again bo an object for contest, the
school which makes the greatest
number of points in the athletic con
tests being the recipient.
The theater will be open, free of
charge, in the afternoon and a spe
cial bill is promised by the man
agement. During the lively day
Walter Shaffer, the Dauphin aviator,
expects to do some stunt flying.

RAILROADS TO
BERETURNEDAT
AT EARLY DATE
Cause For This Belief Shown
in Activities in Various
Branches
Preparations along the line of the
Pennsylvania railroad system to take
up pre-war work, has started a
rumor that the railroads will come
back to private ownership on or be
fore September 1. officials will not
talk on the subject at this time.
It is admitted that there is a gen
eral rush to get all cars needing
repairs into the shops as early as
possible and to clear the sidings of
foreign cars. The same toting is
true about engines. Every effort
possible is being made to secure
additional motive power.
In the United States are a num
ber of engines built for Russia, do
ing service on various lines. At
some points these engines are still
boxed up and awaiting orders for
shipment. However, it is said that
the question of turning over more
of these engines for use here is
now under consideration by the
Eederal railroad authorities.
Big Work Ahead
It is said that plans are now
under way to resume work on the
big yards at Marietta, which will
include many additional tracks,
warehouses, shops and yard exten
tensions east to Columbia. In West
Philadelphia additional yard facili
ties will be provided. This work
was started some bime ago, but
very little was done during the year.
In the vicinity of Farnhurst, Dela
ware, on the P. B. and W. branch
of the Pennsy, the Vare brothers
have a contract for the construction
of a large classification yard.
Farnhurst is on close proximity to
Wilmington.
In the western part of the State
the Pennsylvania railroad is adver
tising for experienced locomotive
erecting machinists, boiler makers,
pipefitters, tinsmiths, coppersmiths,
car repairmen and other help. These
men are wanted by the master me
chanic at Veron, and it is said the
shops there will soon start on three
shifts of eight hours each.

MORE ELECTRICITY
FOR ENGLAND IS
PLAN OF NEW BILL
Measure Would Finally Pro
vide Current For All
Purposes
London, June 11—England la pre
paring to provide herself with cheap
and abundant electricity for heat
ing, lighting and manufacturing pur
poses at an initial cost of approxi
mately $100,000,000. The bill to
accomplish that result has been in
troduced in Parliament by the home
secretary and with the endorsement
of the government as well as of peo
ple of all classes, it is expected to
become a law in the very near fu
ture.
The plan for placing the country
on an electrical basis provides for
its division into districts, each dis
trict to be in charge of a commis
sion. This body, whose members
are to hold office at the pleasure of
the king, will be empowered to ac
quire generating plants and trans
mission lines already built and to
build such plants and lines as it may
deem necessary. The commission
ers are to conduct experiments for
the purpose of improving methods
of supply for which purpose they
will be empowered to call to their
assistance an advisory committee of
unquestioned experts.
It is not the purpose of the gov
ernment to build all the electrical
apparatus in the country but pri
vate corporations entering the field
must obtain the consent of the gov
ernment and abide by its regula
tions.
Water power will be extensively
used in generating electricity to re
duce the cost ami to stimulate its
use for manufacturing and domestic
purposes.
It is also said that within a rea
sonable time every railroad in the
country will be electrified.
GREENWICH IS WORLD TIME
"The chronometer is a mighty im
portant machine, for it gives you
your bearings," says the old whaling
captain who relates one of his ad
ventures in Armstrong Perry's story,
"A Team of Whales,'• published in
Boys' Life. "Time, of course, is
only a measurement of the sun's
travels around the earth. The Brit
isher says the sun starts and fin
ishes at his Greenwich observatory
and he ups and draws a line around
the earth passln' through the North
Pole, the South Pole and Greenwich.
Then says he: 'Ready, set go!' and
the sun starts his 360-degree sprint.
In twenty-four hours he crosses the
line again. That fifteen degrees per
hour. A scared porpoise couldn't
do better.
"When the sun starts, the Eng
lishman says it's 12 o'clock noon.
When he is fifteen degrees west, it's
1 o'clock p. m. (afternoon) at Green
wich, and so on. I've noticed, liow
sumever, that the Englishman is
mighty careful to get out his sextant
and say 'Go!' when the sun is ex
actly overhead. If he doesn't. Old
Sol goes right by and the English
man's chronometer, which bosses all
the other chronometers in (he world,
is Just so much off.
"Uncle Sam tried to take the hon
or away from Johnny Bull by draw
ing another meridian, as they call
the line, through the North Pole,
the South Pole and Washington, D.
C„ but people all over the world
had become so used to using the
Greenwich meridian that they
wouldn't change. So TTncle Sam has
his nice new meridian to play with
all alone!
"Landlubbers never can see why
a sailor is so fussy about his chron
ometer and his latitude and longi
tude. That's because the landlub
ber can see where he is at. He for
gits that there ain't no sign post at
the crossin' of the equator and
Greenwich meridian, like there is
where Canal street crosses the
Bowery. There's nothing to go by
but the sun, moon and stars."

HOUSE PROVIDES
FINANCES TO
RUN RAILROADS
Passes Bill Authorizing Fund
of $750,000,000 For Di
rector Hines
Washington, June 11.—By a vote
of 305 to 4, the House yesterday
passed the bill authorizing an appro
priation of $750,000,000 for the rail
road administration's revolving fund.
Democratic members urged a larger
amount, but did not press any
amendment for an increase, while
Republicans declared the fund
would be sufficient until later in the
year when future needs would be
known. The measure now goes to
the Senate.
Chairman Good, of the appropria
tions committee, in charge of the
rail bill, explained that reduction
from the $1,200,000,000 requested by
Director General Hines was decided
on by the committee because it was
admitted that exact needs of the
future were problematical. The new
fund, he said, would make a total
of $1,250,000,000 granted the ad
ministration since the rail lines were
taken over by the government.
Meanwhile, in the Senate, debate
proceeded on the Cummins bill to
restore to the Interstate Commerce
Commission immediately its power
of supervision over interstate rail
road rates. Senator Nelson, Repub
lican, of Minnesota, protested against
insertion of ain amendment to limit
the restoration of supervision to in
terstate rates. In- reply Senator Cum
mins declared that to subordinate
the Federal government as operator
of the lines to the authority of the
several states as to interstate rates
would be indefensible.

HALF MILLION IN
FREE LUNCHES TO
FIGHTING YANKS
Y. M. C. A. Gave Suppiies in
Meuse-Argonnc Offen
sive Last Fall
Xew York, June 11.—Twenty-two j I
combat divisions in the front line'
areas from Verdun to tho Meuse- ] |
Argonne were served free with Y.' j
M. C. A. supplies of an estimated j
value of more than 3,000,000 francs !
or approximately $545,454.00 during j
the major offen-sive in September and i
November. This is the estimate of ;
Ernest Townsend Barrett, 310 West j
121 st street, New York, a merchan- i
disc broker, who has returned from ;
France, after more lhan a year's ;
work as a Y. M. C. A. divisional |
financial and business secretary, j
with headquarters at Ippccourt. j
"These supplies went to tho men I
in the front lir.-e trenches trom the |
rail-head at Ippecourt and covered ;
the fighting stretches from Verdun j
to the Meuse-Argonnc," said Mr.
Barrett.
Forty Carloads in a Day
"There were days at Ippecourt
that the 'Y' unloaded as many as |
forty cars of supplies for the sol- j
diers, and these supplies were moved
up front, the military giving us .
every co-operation in our sector.
"The Y. M. C. A. supplied between J
650,000 and 700,000 men-, figures re
vealing that in the seven weeks from
September 1 to November 10, we
sent from Ippecourt to Paris head
quarters $3,800,000, sixty per cent,
representing sales of supplies and
forty per cent, remittances home
from men in the A. E. F„ $600,000
worth of supplies were given away. I
During 22 days and r.-ights of fight- I
ing the 'Y' made up and served 18,- ,
000 pounds of chocolate."
Mr. Barrett served with the 37th .
Division during June, July and Au- j
gust and then was transferred to i
the 33rd Division during the fight- :
ing from Verdun to the Meuse-Ar- j
gon-ne. Later he was with the Fourth !
Division, the First Army of Occupa- i
tion in Germany, and during his
stay there the 'Y' furnished supplies
to American soldiers valued at
$122,000.
In July, Mr. Barrett said, "Y" j
supplies with an aggregate value of '
$25,000 were supplied to the 37th !
Division, and that the money sent !
home through the "Y" for the men
amounted to about $40,000 a mon-th
during July and August.
Sent Money Home
"The American doughboys sent
more money home while the most
intensive fighting was going on, hav
ing us transmit it just before they
wer.-t into the line," explained Bar
rett.
"We served in good shape the
129 th, 130 th. 131 st and 132 d Infan
tries, the 122 d, 123 d and 124 th Field
Artillery Ammunition Train. The '
104 th, 105 th and 106 th Artillery of'
the 27th Division were difficult to
get at with supplies when they got
to the front and we supplied them
through their regimental supply of

In November and December, Mr.
Barrett was in- England salvaging
Y. M. C. A. equipment no longer
needed there. Much of the material
in American huts in England, he
said, was taken over by the British,
while the French bought some.
Much of the table linen, chairs, etc.,
he explained, were taken to the Y.
M. C. A. hotels in Lor.-don.
How to Heal
Sore, Bleeding Gums
Tighten Loose Teeth

WORKS I.IKE MAGIC
If your teeth are loosening or if
your gums are receding and are sore,
tender or inflamed, if they bleed when
you brush your teelh. are spongy,
flabby or colorless or if they dis
charge pus or develop gum boils, it
is a warning of dangerous Pyorrhoea
or Itiggs disease of the gums and
prompt, and careful treatment is
nbcessary if you want to save your
teeth from falling out.
A prominent New York State den
tist has discovered a new prescrip
tion Kpithol for promptly cor
recting these troubles and it surely
seems to work like magic. A few
days' use and teeth tighten, the gums |
grow sound and healthy and the
bleeding, poisonous pus discharge
soon stops. An ounce jar of Kpithol
will Inst for weeks and costs little at
H. C. Kennedy's, G. A. Gorgas' or any
good drug store and all these leading
druggists will refund the full pur
chase price if, in any ease, it fails to
bring relief. No one really wants
false teeth. So if you have any of
the above symptoms, you should by
all means give this treatment a trial.
