Work Needed In case of permanent construction ] work the bill provides that the State I will bear one-third of tho cost of ! the improvement. The special report of the proposed mosquito eradication campaign in the city was made by W. V. Becker, chief of that section of the State Department. It is likely that an effort will be made to have Council take some action on tho report so that meas ures can be taken to start tho cam paign in the city soon. Mr. Becker in his report says in part: "The investigation disclosed no conditions requiring any departure from the usual methods of mosquito control. The work would he confined to cer tain sections and would be com paratively small in amount. It would include the draining and fill ing needed to abate permanently a number of breeding Areas, a mode rate amount of mowing, ditch clean ing and similar maintenance work, field and yard inspections and a limited amount of oiling." Bad Points Shown In reporting conditions found at vaious places in the city and vicin ity Mr. Becker reports also the best method of treating these localities. j The lurgest breeding place was found lat Italian Park, he said. Cleaning and lowering of the drainage pipes 1 in this section which covers about ! fifteen acres. is recommended. ' Heavy breeding was found at Hoff- I man's Woods, including that of ano | pheles, mosquitoes which can curry I malaria germs. Killing of this urea i promptly is urged by Mr. Becker, j Marsh areas along the park drive l in Wildwood and a marsh east of ! Sixth street at Hoffman's Woods I also should he- treated. I Conditions at Pleasant View are condemned in the report because of the lack of sanitary sewers, much of 1 the waste water running into gut i ters in the streets. This together with other unsanitary conditions is , j undoubtedly the course of much of , the mosquito nuisance existing with , i in the city line at this point, it is I reported. Effective Work Needed General recommendations by Mr. Becker are given and in part he said: "Although the season is al ! ready well advanced it is still" pos ! sible to do effective work if op erations are begun promptly. The ' campaign should be opened with a i complete and thorough inspection of all vacant and open ground wlth j in the city limits for the purpose of i locating and listing potential breed ' i ing places and to determine the 1 character and amount of work nec ' I ossary. Not only existing accumu | lations of water but alt depressions ' and other locations where water is likely to accumulate under more fa voring conditions should be listed. All streams and creeks should be prosecuted to ocal obstructions, pools and marsh areas along the hanks, etc. In this connection it should be remembered that slack water and eddies behind obstruc tions. overhanging grass or weeds, aquatic growth in the stream itself, are conditions favorable to mos quito breeding even though the wa ter is moving with some rapidity. This is particularly true in the case I of polluted streams. Inspections Planned I "This inspection should include the islands lying opposite the city." A second general" inspection should follow the first one it is advised, and ' field inspections should be made af ! terward on a weekly schedule, j House-to-house and yard inspection ; should be made in districts without i sanitary sewers and in the yards of ! all industrial establishments. Spe ! cial attention should be paid accord j ing to Mr. Becker to cisterns, cess j pools, manure pits, roof gutters, ! flooded cellars, rain barrels, tubs and i similar receptacles. Stables, green : houses, truck farms, cemeteries, i blacksmith shops and similar places 1 where water containers are usually j ke'bt should be inspected regularly. Directions have been included in [ the report for oiling and other tem- I porary measures but it is recom | mended that wherever possible mos quito breeding places should be abat ed permsyiently by tilling or draining i so that the cost of temporary meas ! ures may be decreased. An estimate of the cost of inspec | tlons and oiling has been made and | it is beteved the work can be done ' for SSOO a month. Draining, filling, : mowing and supplies would cost about $1,500. so that the work for i the three summer months would • necessitate an expenditure of $3,000. INDIAN NAME FOR "Y" CAMP Season Will Open July 22; Smaller Boys May Go In August Camp Shlkellimy will be the per manent name for the Harrisburg Y. M. C. A. boys' camp, according to the unanimous vote of the members present at the meeting of the Boys' Work Committee of the'association held last night in the Central Y. M. C. A. building. The Indian lore will no doubt play an important part it this camp name, in honor of the Chrietian chief of the Iroquois. The "Y" boys' camp for this sea- I son will be held, according to the unanimous vote of the committee, at "Big Pond," which is in reality a small lake, located two miles .oft the Walnut Bottom road from Grey thorn station on the Philadelphia und Reading spur from Carlisle Junction to Shippensburg. The cunip will be easily reached by automobile. It is located only two miles off the Walnut Bottom road, and the roads approaching the camp being in excellent condition. In all probability the boys going to camp will take the train to Grey ihorn and walk two miles to the lake. Tents will be pitched between the lake shore anq the clearing, which will be reserved for athletic field purposes. The camp committee appointed by J. William Bowman, chairman of the Boys' Work Committee, is headed by Al. K. Thomas as chair man. The other members of the committee who will work with him to make possible a "best ever" camp for boys are: George S. Reinoehl, E. S. Nissley, A. Ramsey S. Black and Gus M. Steinmetz. The commit tee decided to hold the camp open for two weeks, '.eginning July 22 and to extend the time one ad ditional week in case there was suf ficient demand for it. During the period. July 22 to August 5, only boys over twelve years of age may attend the camp. It will be pos sible for boys as old as eighteen years to go to camp and a few older may he taken as squad and tent leaders. During the proposed third week of camp, boys of ten and eleven years may attend providing their applications are filed at an early date. It is understood that this third week will be conducted only if a sufflcien' number register for it without delay. The committee desires to operate the camp on an absolute cost basis. The rate to be charged for campers' who attend camp fourteen days oi longer will be $K per week. Those who go for any shorter period will pay $7 per week. Each boy will pay his own carfare to camp and re- I turn. ' I Work Secretary A. H. Dins more and Physical Director C. W. Miller will be assisted by a number of adult and older boys its leaders in the administration of the camp. Mr. Dinsntore has requested that it be made clear that while this camp is conducted primarily for boy mem bers of the T. M. C. A., that other boys of the city may apply for en trance to the camp, as T. "M. C. A. membership is not necessary for ad mission. Boys who are not members will he charged the same camp fee as the "Y" boys and parents are in vited to call upon Mr. Dinsmore for any information which they may de sire regarding the camp. With Eight Bullets in Body, Refuses to Tell Who Shot Him Up Wilkes-Barro, Pa., July B—Thomas Kothlino, aged 28, is ip a dying con dition with eight bullets in his body, but he refuses to name his assailant or tell how he was shot. Kothbiio was found on a street i.i the Oregon section of Pittston. It is known that he nttended a wedding celebration. That is as much as the police have gathered. He was removed to a hospital. Paris Women Wearing Socks to Keep Cool liOndon, July B.—Certain women ! who pass for being elegant have sprung a surprise among the morn ing promenaders in the select por tions of the Bois de Boulonge, Paris, by appearing without stockings. They have rep'aced the stockings by socks, which run only an Inch or two above the boots. With summer weather in spring, the silk stockings of the "elegantes" generally had become more diaph anous than ever, their transparency being increased with the intensity lof the heat till it reached such a I point that, as it no longer veiled the limbs, more audacious persons argued that stockings might be dis . pensed with altogether, j Diligent students of the fashion j barometer record that skirts have | been shortened by several inches In | the last three ye&rs. At Eongchamps races recently they were seen at their shortest. A feature of the toil ettes was a sort of wrap which sug ettes was a sort of wrap which sug gested that the wearer had emerged from her bath. There was also a robe resembling the roomy panta loons of a Zouave soldiers. Class of 1919 Leaves Fund For Purchase of Medals The class of 1919 of Central High School has founded a fund amount ing to S3OO to be used for the pur chase of three medals every year to be given to the three highest students taking American History and Civics. The medals will have a value of $lO each, and will be given for a period of ten years. In case the present high school is turned into a girls' high school, and another high school is main tained for only, then two medals having a valuation of sls each, will be offered for the highest student in each school. If a high school is founded on the university plan, the three medals will be given as origi nally Intended. This action was taken last night by the executive commitlee of the Class of 1919, and copies of the rules adopted for the presentation of the medals will be forwarded the principal of Central High School and the secretury of the School Board.

Warren, the president. • made public yester day a collection of curious facts and statistics gathered by the league, the most startling of which, perhaps being tho statement that suicide among children Is growing fast. "Perhaps nothing is more alarm ing," said Dr. Warren, "than the in crease of suicide among children. During the past six months, 175 children took their own lives in the United States, 71 boys and 104 girls. The youngest boy was 10 years, and the youngest girl 13. The average age was, boys 17. girls 15. The favor ite method among the boy suicides was shooting, while girls desiring to end their lives resorted in largo numbers to the use of poison. | "There should be in every State," said Dr. Warren, "strictly enforced laws against the sale of poisons and iirearms, like the Sullivan and the drug laws of this State. The prin cipal causes of suicide among chil dren were unpleasant experiences in school or home, fear, jealousy, pun ishment, love affairs and humilia tion caused by arrest."
