JUNE WAS BUSY
MONTH FOR THE
COMMERCE BODY
Many Activities Taken l T p by
Businessmen of the
City
That June was an unusually busy
month for the officers and members
of the Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce and that much work of a
profitable nature was accomplished
by the organization during that
month, is shown by the account of
the activities of the body as record
ed in the June issue of Harrisburg,
the official publication of the Cham
ber.
Housing, health, smoke nuisance.
Fourth of July band concerts, clos
ing hours for merchants, employ
ment of returned service men, con
vention activities and the placing of
road signs along the highways ad
jacent to Harrisburg, came in for
the attention of the various com
mittees of the Chamber, and con-

"All of our best doctors had given
me up. I was unable to leave my
bed for 16 weeks and was yellow
as a pumpkin, besides the terrible
stomach pains I suffered. Our drug

Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and it
has saved my life. I am a new

Ambition
Pills
For Nervous People
The great nerve tonic the fam

Anyone can buy a box for only 50
cents, and all good druggists are au

PAYS HIGH TRIBUTE
TO FAMILY FRIEND
Harry Pearson, 451 Bodine St,
Philadelphia, paid a high tribute to
the agency through which he and
Mrs. Pearson obtained relief. "I suf
fered from stomach trouble." he
says, "and rheumatism. I had all
the symptoms ot' indigestion and
gastritis, and the rheumatic pains
were awful. I heard about Tanlac
and bought some. Tanlac gave me
relief quickly. I was soon able to'
eat everything, almost, and could
sleep long and well. It has relieved
nie and my wife."

FORMER KING OF
GREECE GOES TO
CHEAPER TOWN
By Assfcialtd Tress.
Berne, July I.—Constantine,
former King of Greece, has left
Lucerne for Locanno, In order, it
is understood, to reduce his ex
penses. He has been paying
2,400 francs a day at one of the
principal hotels there. He has a
suite of sixty persons.
Prince Johan of Liechtensteid,
the aged ruler of that little prin
icpality on the western frontier of
Switzerland, has asked the Swiss
government if he may live per
manently in Switzerland. His re
quest will probably be granted.
The Prince, it appears, has de
termined to abandon his country
permanently on account of the
democratic tendencies of the pop
ulation, which is about 10,000.
sidcrable progress has been reported
on these phases of local welfare.
The housing department reports
the successful operation of the nevv
ly-established housing bureau, which
placed about two hundred persons
in rooms, apartments and homes,
during the month. The bureuu also
is compiling records of the types of
homes most vitally needed in Har
risburg. In addition to the tangible
results, endeavors of the housing
committee, of which J. Horace Me-
Farland is chairman, the bulletin
points out the inestimable value
in increased home-building which
the committee's educative propa
ganda has engendered.
As a result of its efforts on be
half of a model city, the Chamber
has brought about a permanent
committee to look after this phase
of public welfare, and is at present
working on a definite program out
lined by Colonel Edward Martin,
chief of' the State Bureau of Hous
ing. A Child Welfare organization
also has been formed as a result of
this special activity.
Arrangements for summer band
concerts, and for a number of
Fourth of July concerts, also are
included in the list of the Cham
ber's activities for the month. An
ordinance authorizing the reappro
priation of $5OO for concerts, has
passed first reading in Council, in
troduced at the request of the com
mittee.
In addition to a resume of the
organization's accomplishments for
the month, the bulletin contains a

Says Eat Less To
Put on Flesh
And Get Strong
! Thin weak, nervous wrecks, who
I want to put on flesh, get strong and
I fine, can almost invariably do so in
! two or three weeks by taking with
I each meal a 5-grain tablet of the
great French nerve and blood build
! er known among druggists here as
Blood-Iron Phosphate. Big eaters are
often thin as a rail simply because
I the food they eat is not assimilated.
Blood-Iron Phosphate, by strengthen
ing the nervous system and enrich
ing the blood, promotes the normal
activity of those vital organs upon
which the processes of assimilation
and metabolism depend, thus enabling
you to make use of tbe very last bit
of nourishment from the food that
you eat. If yon don't feel well, if
you tire easily, don't sleep well or are
too thin, go to Geo. A. Gorgas or any
other good druggist and get enough
Blood-Iron Phosphate for a three
weeks' treatment —it costs only 50
cents a week —and take as directed.
Eat less, chew your food thoroughly,
and if at the end of three weeks, you
don't feel stronger and better than
you have for months; if your eyes
aren't brighter and your nerves
steadier; if you don't sleep better, rnd
your vim, vigor, endurance and vital
ity aren't more than doubled, the
druggist will return your money for
the asking and Klood-lron Phosphate
will cost you nothing.

MISS HEPFORD PAYS TRIBUTE
TO AMERICANS IN SERVICE
Harrisburg Woman Tolls of Experiences Among the War
Workers and Soldiers in France
Miss Minerva S. Hepford, who is
believed now to be on her way from
ennteen service overseas and who
will be warmly welcomed by her
ussociates in the teaching circles of
ibe Harrisburg schools has written
an interesting letter to a friend
from which the following extracts
are taken:
"Through letters from home, I've
learned that my letter to Dr. Hawes
was published in the Telegraph. In
it I tried to tell something about the
work in the leave-area at Grenoble.
When the area was closed April 27,
reports showed that more than 30,-
000 men had been entertained by
the Y during the seven months of
activity at that place. There were,
besides, many other guests. And as
1 intimated before this Y had earned
the reputation of having the best
wet canteen in France, of which we
were proud. 1 really wish you could
have visited us in Grenoble and I
would have had the pleasure of
serving you.
"After having served for a period
of six months, I was granted a leave
of ten days, five of which were
spent traveling to and from Biarritz,
and five in the city itself. Having
lived for months, simply surrounded
by the lofty, towering, French Alps,
it was interesting to watch the vary
ing scenery and landscape on our
journey. (Miss Weldon, of Newton,
Mass., was with me on the trip).
Fron Grenoble to Lyon there were
mountains in every direction. From
Lyon to Bordeaux we traveled
through the foothills of the Alps
and a gently rolling country. Bor
deaux impressed me as being more
modern and western in its appear
ance than any other French city I've
seen. We stopped at the lovely Ho
tel du France, and were very com
fortable. On a little sightseeing trip,
we saw the ruins of an old Koman
arena, and walked through one of
the most beautiful and picturesque
parks I've ever seen. In it, as in
the parks of Grenoble, the simple,
rustic, woodland air had been pre
served. Here, as everywhere I've
gone, I saw the grandest trees. I
have always loved trees, and I never
enjoyed them more than I did on
my little journeys in France, this
spring. There were also botanical
gardens in this park with a profus
ion of flowers. Passing from Bor
deaux on to Biarritz, we traveled
through a perfectly flat country,
much of it reclaimed land. As we
approached the south of France, we
could see miles and miles away,
the snow-covered Pyrenees, glisten
ing in sunlight against a wondrous
blue sky.
"Biarritz, the famous seaside re
sort, is so well known I scarcely
need say anything about it, except
how very much I enjoyed being
tlAire. Of course it cannot compare
with our own Atlantic City. Biarritz
has a very small bathing beach and
a short cement walk. But the sun
sets were gorgeous, and I certainly
did appreciate the western hori
zon at the seashore. There are sev
eral fine large hotels, which enter
tain many royal visitors of Europe.
The Continental Hotel was built on
the site of a beautiful villa, built by
Napoleon for the Empress Eugenie,
which was burned. In this hotel,
royalty is served on gold and silver
dishes. There is also a famous
towerhouse in which an overambi
tious Frenchman lived. He had
eleven wives, and as he stood on the
stairway, about to welcome the
twelfth, he dropped dead. Biarritz
was also a leave-area and was full
of our khaki-clad men. All who
were sent there were to be congratu
lated and they were surely having a
good time. We attended a fine A.
E. F. show here; the "Four-Point
Seven," also a concert played by a
band from the A. E. F., in real
American fashion. One day was
spent on an auto-trip through the
basque country of the Pyrenees, in
which lived a people who followed
the customs of two hundred years
ago. We snapped an old woman
about seventy, who was riding a
small donkey. She was so amazed
she slipped off, and we got her again
in another pose. We had a wonder
ful trip and returned to Grenoble
for our trunks on our way to Paris
for reassignment.
When we arrived in Paris we found
that the Y would be glad to send
any of its personnel home who wish
ed to go. We also lehrned that the
entire A. E. F. was to be out of
France by the middle of July and
the next assignment would be for a
very short time. So we decided to
go home. After being released by
the Paris office and getting all our
papers necessary for traveling we
were held three weeks in that city-
I had a splendid opportunity tff see
ing all the places of interest again.
Indeed, it is advisable to (on my
part it was necessary), visit such
places as the Louvre, with its wealth
of art, the Pantheon in which is
exhibited the marvelous war pic
ture, the wonderful cathedrals, and
many other famous places, twice in
order to really appreciate them. It
was also a great thing to enjoy the
hospitality of the Y as a guest and
we were daily visitors at the Palais
de Glace in the mess line, and at
the entertainments. The Y is doing
simply wonderful things for our
men on leave in Paris. The trip to
Versailles during a whole afternoon
on which they visit the famous
'Palace of the Kings,' with a guide
without a cent of expense, is worth
mentioning. Also the lovely boat
trip on the Seine, going up and
down the river for miles, seeing all
the places enroute, passing under
eighteen bridges, most of them hav
ing some historical association, and
visiting St. Cloud, the summer home
of kings. And our men were cer
tainly taking advantage of every
opportunity. My, what sight-seers
they are. And always and every
where it has been such a pleasure
to meet them and talk with them. It
has indeed been a fine privilege to
meet the young men from the North,
East, South and West, each with his
pride in his own home section or
State. All of them are so worth
while ,and how eager and anxious
they are to get home.
I'tirln Crowded
Paris was so full of returning men
and women, a crowd of us were sent
to LeMans to await a sailing date.
But "sailing dates" are very indefin
ite, and we were all put 16 work
again. Miss Weldon and I were sent
out to a little town, named Montfort,
to serve a company of Military Po
lice, a supply company, and a few
others. It was an entirely new expe
rience for us, but we surely did en
joy it. We had a nice little hut, and
our work was largely social duty,
playing the piano and singing, and a
little talking on the side. We had
a game of baseball with Miss Weldon
cr me at the bat, and we hit the ball,
■ too,. It was great sport, and we got
plenty of coaching. One of the mem
orable things we did was helping the
cook make strawberry shortcake for
the men. After the pastry was made
he allowed me to cut the biscuits
with a baking powder can, and be
lieve me. 1 took much pride in it,
end saAda them nice and round. He
BXRRISBTTRG TEXEGRJLPBC
certainly conferred a favor on me by
allowing me to do the work. At
mess. Miss Weldon and I served the
short cake, and the men were as
pleased as so many children. The ma
jority of the men were from the Thir
ty-fourth Division, and as a reward
for our little services, were
given the very handsome and effect
ive insignia of the Division to wear,
and were also asked to sail with
them. I am very glad I had that lit
tle experience. I know now what it
meant for our men to have spent
months in a little French town, with
its loneliness and monotony. And
Montfort was better than many oth
ers. Miss W and I lived in a little
French home, and the Madame was
as good as gold to us. But we were
there for only a week, while some of
our men had never been in a city of
any size until after November 11, 1918,
and to have lived in the small towns
during the wiritcr required real cour
age. I'm proud of them all.
While in Montfort, I walked
through a park surrounding a chat
eau. in which lived the third largest
land owner in France. He built a
large church for the town, with won
derful bells, and each day he enters
the church through a subterranean
passage. "Every man's house is his
castle" still in France.
I've returned to LeMans, and have
been given a new job. and a promo
tion. I'm assisting with the type
writing in the salvaging office. I
find the typewriter very fascinating,
and much practice is making for im
provement, at least. During my
spare moments, I've been writing to
my family and friends; by the time
I return to the States I'll be enter
ing the business world.
Another art in which much practice
may make me perfect is dancing. If
there is one thing our men enjoy
more than any other, in the way of
entertainment, it is dancing. And
since it is simply impossible to fur
nish enough partners for the men,
every girl dances as often as she can.
I'm going to tell you about Just one
dance I attended, which is typical. On
Friday evening, the Y. M. C. A. en
tertained the men who had been re
cruited into "Y* service from the A.
E. F. We were all taken to a way
side inn, which had a most beautiful
garden. A program of music and read
ings, a march through all the wind
ing paths of the garden, and refresh
ments were furnished in the garden.
The dancing was indoors, and I wish
you could have attended. The or
chestra was simply great. The flute
player stood on top of the piano, the
pianist stood on the chair most of
the time, and the violinist and the
mandolin player danced and gave
real Indian yells, while they played.
The music was fine, the dancing fast
and furious, and every one had a
grand and glorious time. We were
driven home in a big seven-passenger
and it all happened on a beautiful
moonlight night. I didn't dance much
on that occasion, I had met a young
man from Illinois who had not talked
to an American woman for a long
time, and he didn't dance, so we sat
in tho lovely garden and talked. And
that was very worth while. Each one
must be entertained in his own way.
LeMans is a very large city of
about 250,000 inhabitants. It has
quite a number of places of interest,
which I hope to visit while I am
here. It is an American embarkation
center, and is full of our men. x x x
I shall always feel deeply grateful
to you and any others whose kindly
interest made it possible for me to
come to France. My one hope is that
my coming has been worth while, and
that in my small way X contributed a
little to the happiness and comfort
of our brave men while in France. I
have esteemed it a great privilege.

LACK OF HOMES
DELAYS CUPID
[Continued From First Page]
persons were placed the first three
days in rooms or whole houses: than
the supply began to wane.
The real old human interest stuff
same along when an ambitious
man. high up in the State govern
ment, protested that he was bound
to make good on his pledge to a
beautiful lady to have a home for
her by July. Luckily, at that mo
ment, word came of two unfur
nished houses, but unluckily, the
strenuous one arrived a minute too
late. Another feature, with no hu
mor to it for renters, is tho ob
jection to children. There was the
instance of a railroad brakeman
with wife and two kiddies who was
willing to take a lease at $2O a
month, but the owner said the
neighbors complained at the pros
lect of children and the house
finally went to a spinster.
Building Code Needed
"Harrisburg is a great city, but
it must take care for the future,"
is the slogan of the housing com
mittee. "One of the great crimes
here is 'lot-hogging,' which could
easily be stopped if we had a budd
ing code to go by. There is no code
here, as in almost every city m
America. There is nothing to pre
vent an owner from utilizing every
inch for building, regardless of the
neighbor's ventilation or sanitary
situation. There was the case of the
man, against whom many protests
have come in. He built in between
his house and his garage another
building, thus shutting off and
obliterating an attractive view that
the whole block had relished, for
each owner took pride in keeping
up a beautiful back yard. "Ruined,
the attraction of the spot," is the
charge, and increased the insurance
rates for neighbors. The committee
have figures to show that the city
of Minneapolis has been made to
look grotesque by this very sys
tem.
ITp-to-date the committee has
placed 200 persons with rooms or
houses and thanks are expressed to
many house owners who, leaving
the city for the summer months,
have tendered their residences for
families who must have temporary
dwelling place. On hand now aro
akout seventy rooms desirable for
fine. Some observers here say the
reopening of the saloons will do
much toward making a bad situa
tion worse.
Detached House in Demand
The big demand is for detached
houses of six and seven rooms, with
small yard, renting for about $26.
Hundreds of such could be rented
instantly, is the opinion of the com
mittee. The correspondence from
out-of-town is enormous, showing
the demand for homes here; these
come mostly from prominent busi
nessmen. The Y. M. C. A., Knights
of Columbus and the real estate
firms are co-operating gladly to help
the committee, and a request is
made to-day for any and all per
sons to send word to the Chamber
of Commerce of any houses, rooms
or apartments for rent, no charges
being involved.
"Housing reform does not neces
sarily mean cheaper houses" is the
emphatic assertion from the com
mittee. "People do not want badly
kept houses, and profiteering should
not be charged against the city
owners en masse. With taxes very
high this profiteering talk stops
new building to some extent. A
standardized system of rents, pro
viding for proper legal profit on
houses, which invariably deteriorate
in value, should be fixed. The in
stances of profiteering are compara
tively rare." In one case a man re
ported that he was paying $7O for
two rooms in North Kront street;
many are paying from $35 to $4O
for three-room apartment.
The Chamber of Commerce bu
reau has done some splendid things
in the way of accommodations. Two
war veterans, each with wife and
two children, were found living in
three small rooms; they were found
bigger apartments in the outskirts
of the city.
The most vital thing needed here,
in the committee's belief, is a system
of zoning which constitutes not
only a definite recognition of equal
ity in ownership but also an im
portant protection of taxable values.
The term "zoning" has come to
be used to mean the regulation of
buildings in a city. It signifies such
regulation of the height, area and
use of buildings as will protect each
landowner from the impairment of
his share of light and access, as will
protect his ears from unseemly noises,
his nose from unpelasant smells and
his eyes from offensive sights.
Proper protection of the owner in
these respects enhances the value of
his land and conserves the value of
his building. Owners cannot have
such protection for themselves with
out conceding the like protection for
their neighbors. Appropriate regu
lation demands such rules that no
parcel of land in the city can be
used in such fashion that all sim
ilar land could not be improved with
buildings of like kind without dis
advantage to each and all of them.
This is only common fairness, cor
porate equality.
Each street will accommodate a
certain amount of traffic, pedestrian
and vehicular. Each lot of land on
that street is entitled to its propor
tionate share of access along the
street. The welfare of each owner
demands that no one owner shall
make greater use of the street than
the size of his lot entitles him to
have. There is a direct relation be
tween the facilities afforded hv the
street for traffic and the light and

MANUFACTURER'S NOTE
Druggists with years of experience
say "Geero Wormwood Balm is by
far the greatest all around vfoot
treatment they have ever handled."
One druggist said, "We . sell more
Wormwood Balm than all the rest
of the foot treatments put together
and we have never heard a com
plaint." Another druggist said, "I
sold and heard so much about
Wormwood Balm for sore feet, that
I finally tried a package myself and
it certainly is the best thing I ever
used "

buildings are too high for the width j
of the street, light is cut off, and,
at tho same time, traffic is con
gested.
In every city there is ft tendency
for business and industries of like
kind to group together. This is for
their own good. If a manufactur
ing industry is intruded into ft
business or residential neighborhood,
.it impairs the value of all the sur
rounding property. There has been
annually in the United States a
greater destruction of the value of
buildings by the failure to protect
them from the improper use of
neighboring buildings tlinn is caused
by fire. One manufactory erected
on a business block may easily de
stroy several million dollars' worth
of neighboring buildings. One ga
rage on a residential block may de
stroy hundreds of thousands of dol
lars' worth of residences. High
buildings have been erected that cut
the rent roll of their neighbors in
half.
Unfortunately, in every city some
buildings are too high,' cover too
large a percentage of the lot and
are put to a wrong use. Zoning must
proceed on the basis of existing
conditions. Even the worst sections
can be improved somewhat: sonic
sections may be saved; new sections
may be protected at the beginning
cf their development, in general,
buildings in new sections should
never be allowed to be higher than
the width of the street. No build
ing for human habitation in a new
section should be allowed to cover
more than fifty per cent, of the
land. Single family dwellings muv
be protected by not being permitted
to cover more than thirty per cent,
of the land.
