ROTARIAN GUEST
Strickland Gilliland, Poet and
Humorist, Gives Delightful
Talk Before the Club
Strickland Gilliland, noted hu
morist and poet and magazine writ
er, who with his family was in Har
risburg to-day, was the guest of
honor at the noon luncheon of the
Harrisburg Rotary Club at the
Penn-Harris. SQilliland is one of the
most charming speakers before the
American public and his address to
the club was one of the biggest hits
of the year. It was not all humor
ous but there was enough of fun
related in Gilliland's own inimitable
style to keep the Rotarians in a roar
of laughter for a half hour.
"Don't be worried by the fright
.into which the world has fallen over
ills which self-appointed prophets
are forecasting," said • he. "The
world always has been just on the
bring of ruin, but it never gets there.
The good God who created the earth
and all that therein is had too much
wisdom and goodness in his heart to
create an everlasting mess of suf
fering and despondency for human
ity. Just go on believing that bright
er skies are just ahead and doing
your part to brush the*clouds away.
And above all preserve your sense of
humor. No man without a sdnse
of humor ever gets very far. When
a man without a sense of humor
in his makeup gets a big job to do
he goes crazy in the middle of it,
and a man with no sense of humor
who goes crazy hasn't had much of
a trip."
J. William Bowman, admiral, and
his chief assistant, V. Grant Forrer,
of the Harrisburg Navy, told the Ro
tarians that there will be big do
ings here on Labor Day, the date
of the next Kipona, when the biggest
river festival in the history of Har
risburg will be held. One of the fea
tures will be a great water pageant
of a historical character.
Arch Dinsmore reported on the
boys' camp of he Y. M.- C. A. to
begin the latter part of this month,
and invited the members to hold a
picnic there during the camping
period. Also he asked the Rotarians
who have no sons to pay the way of
some boy who ought to have the
advantages of the camp.

Doutrichs Distributes
Fans in Churches
Nothing can he worse than sitting
through it service when the ther
mometer is running around the hun
dred mark, and this fact has evi
dently been appreciated by the,
Doutrich store. Yesterday when i
churchgoers of this city wandered in
prepared to suffer through the
morning heat, they were agreeably
surprised to find fans in front of
them, fans in profusion, and of just
the proper size to meneuver.
The fans, which are of the palm
leaf type, were distributed about the
city's churches by the Doutrich Store
and they expressed the hope this
morning that if any church was ne
glected in the distribution they
should notify the store, where the
matter would be immediately cor
rected.

FLY SWATTING
GETS POPULAR
All Strangers Being Rounded
Up in a Determined
Campaign
Fly swatting is getting rapidly un
der way in the city of Harrisburg.
All strange flies in this vicinity are
being warned to make a quick exit
or else lose their heads. Up to the
present there has been n phenom
enal slaughter.
Willam Jennings, chairman of the
general committee, has ordered sev
eral hundred rounds of flypaper,
which he says is calculated to tan
gle up all the disturbing pests in
this city. Mr. Jennings said that
the campaign this year is being gone
into more seriously and energeti
cally than ever before, and active
steps are to be taken to see that the
fly menace is reduced. I
Several inspectors from the State
Board of Health have been malting
the rounds of all places which sell
fresh food, and any place whei e
they have found it exposed to con
tamination by flies it has been gen
tly suggested to the dealer that he
get screens. Further inspections
will be made and it is promised that
if it is found that these suggestions
are not being compiled with, drastic
steps will be taken to see that they
are.
Mrs. William Henderson, presi
dent of the Civic Club, said this
morning that everything which could
be done was being done. The an
nual contest held by the Civic Club
for all young fly swatters is going
on now. The result of the first two
months, June and July, will be an
nounced the first of August, when
five cents will be given for each peck
of flies turned in and prizes given
the girl and boy who turn in the
largest number of corpses. The sec
ond contest will extend over August
and September. Members of the
Visiting Nurses are distributing lime
to cover exposed places, and girl
scouts are taking rolls of screen
about from house to house. If con
ditions are not extremely better after
all these efforts, it will be a great
surprise to all those interested in
it.
MAJORITY FAVOR PARK
SITE FOR SCHOOL
[Continued from First Page.]
and east of Italian Park is
manifested in all sections of the city.
Those who favor this location met
the argument that the distance is
too great for a large part of the
high school population by calling
attention to the fact that the Har
risburg Academy, located in the
same general district, has developed
more in the last few years or since
it was removed from the central
part of the city to its present loca
tion than in 50 years pervtously.
If the Academy has prospered on
the southern edge of Riv . elsid ?.,
is the opinion of those adv ® cat J"?
th% McKec-Graham tract that the
high school will develop in the
same proportion.
One of the strong reasons ad
vanced to-day for the Purchase.of
thA tract in question, comprising
about 3 5 acres, is the extremely low
price and the opportunities for fu
ture enlargement of the high sc *°°
facilities under the university plan.
There is practically no opposition
to the'ltalian Park suggestion and
with one accord citizens declare it
would be more unwise to decline the
free tender of 15 or 20 acres which
has" been made by the McKee-G.a
ham estate for the lake and park
at Division and Third streets The
cost of acquiring the other 35 acres
at $2,250 would be but $78,750.
"Harrisburg is on the threshold of
an important building revival and
the people of the norther nsect on
of the city, said a well-known citi
zen to-day. "feel they re en
titled to more consideration than
has heretofore been given that
growing section in the matter of
recreation places and river-front
treatment. This university high
school plan pleases everybody who
has given it any serious thought and
the reasonable cost commends the
proposition to anyone with busi
ness sense."
Owen M. Copelin, who is inter
ested in having the school board
buy the site at Fourteenth and Ver
beke streets, to-day wrote the fol
lowing letter to the board:
"In making an offer of land to
your body, in the City of Harris
burg for school purposes, at a price
certainly not exorbitant, and assum
ing that only one site will be pur
chased at this Mime, we wish to set
forth in as brief a manner as pos
sible some reasons why this site is
the most available one.
"It Is within a few squares of the
geographical center and also the
renter of population of this city, and.
therefore, it is equally convenient
for all Ftudents to attend, in other
words, it is the one site, and the
only one, that treats all the pupils
with fairness so far as getting to
school is'concerned. The great ma-

MAY BREAK UP
GERMAN SHIPS
U. S. and Japan Favor De
stroying Remaining
Vessels
/
By Associated Press.
Paris, July 7.—Removal of the
censorship upon communications
with Germany was on the progrum
for discussion at the session of the
Allied Council this afternoon. It is
understood that the Supreme Eco
nomic Council has recommended
that the censorship be lifted coinci
dent with the raising of the block
ade. The recommendation, it is
considered probable, will, be ap
proved.
Discussions with the Germans re
garding certain terms of the Peace
Treaty concerning reparations were
to have been begun early this week,
but it developed that the beginning
of the oral exchanges had been
postponed until Thursday, the Ger
man representatives having failed to
arrive from Berlin.
May Break Dp Ships
The commission of admirals ap
pointed to consider the disposition
of the remaining German warships
submitted their report to the Coun
cil to-day. In effect the report
states that no recommendations on
the question are podble until cer
tain matters of policy have been de
cidod by the powers. In all proba
bility the whole question will be
finally referred to the governments
of the various powers concerned.
As the situation stands now, Ja
pan and the United States are un
derstood to favor breaking up or
sinking the remaining warships.
Great Britain approves the plan to
break them up, while Italy agrees
to their destruction conditionally,
but if this plan is not carried out
Italy insists upon having her share
of the vessels in case they are di
vided among the powers. France
opposes the destruction of the ves
sels and desires their distribution.
Some of the smaller powers, notably
Poland, approve the plan to destroy
the vessels.
jority of youths can reach this place
after a 15-minute walk, and the
greatest distance that any one of
them will have to travel is about
one-half the greatest distance that
is needed to reach Sixth and Division
streets. This location, within a mile
and a quarter of the State Capitol
buildings, has an elevation of four
hundred and seven (407) feet above
tide, while Sixth and Division is only
three hundred and forty-nine (349)
feet. In other words, it has the ad
vantage of 58 feet in elevation and
other things being the same, this
extra elevation should govern. This
high ground is almost free from
the noise, the smoke and dirt of
the railroads and manufactories.
'All conveniences, such as water
pipe, sewers, electric light, and gas
are easily obtained. There is no
reason why children in good condi
tion should not easily walk to this
place, but it is a certainty that an
abundance of street cars for service
would be at hand long before any
school building could be erected.
Prom the sentiments expressed
by the members of the school board,
its professors and teachers and by
tho newspapers and people In gren
eral, it can safely be assumed that
the next school building erected in
this city will be on the university
plan, which combines recreational
and educational advantages with
play grounds, work shop, libraries
and traditional school.'
'ls it not evident that this site
for a high school is one that affords
the greatest chance for a future en
largement, without additional costs
for land; one that is most healthful
'because of its elevation and open
ness and attractive because it aiTords
a view of the city, the river and the
country beyond, and is accessible in
every way? The proposed boule
vard will touch it on three sides,
and there is ample guarantee of
splendid street car service. It is
sufficiently elevated to be free from
impurities in atmosphere and with
paved streets radiating in every di
rection, it is alike convenient and
contiguous to every part of the city.
"This site for the proposed high
school meets the unqualified indorse
ment of Warren H. Manning, who
says among a great many other fa
vorable things '* * * Ido not know
of an available site in this city so
well adapted for this purpose • • •'
The Capital City Realty Company
will sell to the Board of Control, for
school purposes, all the land north
of Calder street, south of Hamilton
street, east of Thirteenth street, and
west of Fifteenth street, about 20
acres, for the sum of $70,000, (Ind if
it is desired, for an additional live
thousand dollars it will sell all the
land fronting Thirteenth street, be
longing to this company, it being the
plateau below, containing about six
acres, making a total of probably
26 acres.

BIDS FOR PAVING
ARE RECEIVED
Cost Much Higher Than Prc-
War Estimates, Mr.
Lynch Finds
Bids for paving 23 sections of city
streets were received from only one
corporation to-day. and the price
asked per square yard ranged from
$3.32 to $3.36 as compared with $2,
the pre-war cost for the work.
Commissioner Lynch said he will
defer any action on the bids until
ho consults other members of City
Council, and some of the property
owners involved, a number of whom
petitioned to have the work done,
lie said that considering the big ad
vance in the cost of materials and
the uncertainty of labor conditions,
the bid was not much higher than
had been anticipated.
Two of the sections of city high
ways which are to be paved are in
Bellevue Park, and are to be finish
ed with bituminous concrete. A
few years ago the cost of this pav
ing construction was from $1.50 to
$1.60 a square yard, while the bid
submitted to-day was $3.20 a square
yard. The Central Construction Cor
poration was the only bidder for all
the paving hnd curbing work.
Granite curbing bids ranged from
$1.60 to $1.63 and granolithic curb
ing from $1.20 to $1.23. The streets
for which paving bids were asked
include: Chestnut, Nineteenth to
Twentieth: Helen, Nineteenth to
David; Orange, Woodbine to Emer
old; Sprague, Brensinger to Turner;
Brensinger, Emerald to Curtin.

Wage Question Dispute
Delays Opening of the
Reading Iron Plants
Reading, Pa., July 7. —None of
the Reading Iron Company's plants
which were expected to resume to
day went into operation this morn
ing, because of a wage question dis
pute. It is expected that there will
be a conference some time to-mor
row between the Reading Company
officials and representatives of its
employes because of the reduction
from $14.37 to $10.50 a ton in pud
riling. The men number about
3,000.
The company maintains that the
| cut was unavoidable in order to
keep the plants, which had been
running on reduced time, in opera
tion. It is believed th_t the men
will return to work to-morrow
morning on protest pending an
agreement between the committees
appointed by the various locals of
the Amalgamated Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers and President L. E.
Thomas, of the iron company.
FARMERS WANT WHEAT
PRICE FIXING STOPPED
Washington, July 7. Congress

against this statute appears to be
setting in.
