Employes Enrolled
Many school dis
been summarizing
results of the final enrollment on
Tt July 1. The total enrollment in the
State system is now 40,450. which is
a few hundred more than the num
' ber expected. In June alone 8,000
applications were received and on
June 30, the last day for enrollment,
more than 1,500 applications were
sent to the Capitol.
Warren county was the first county
to send to the State Board a report
for the retirement system from the
■whole county. It came from Super- ,
intendent C. S. Knapp.
Dr. Baish says "The contributions
to the retirement fund by school
employes will be made in the
form of deductions from their
salaries. The secretary of each
school district will remit to the head
4. quarters of the board monthly be
ginning with July the total amount
* of these salary deductions of school
employes in his district and in the
office of the State Retirement Board
a separate account will be kept with
each individual employed. We have
prepared a handbook of these salary
deductions which will he sent to
each secretary and reduce the
amount of work required in making
the deductions."
Await tlie Word—Locations of the
units of the new National Guard and
of the choice of the organization to
be established when the new militia
is formed will not be determined for
some time. Questions relative to the
£ size of the division are being dis
cussed at Washington to-day by
Adjutant General Frank D. Beary,
who is hopeful that authority for
the formation of the whole division
instead of only a part may be given.

Tells How Thin Folks Can
Put on Flesh and Get Strong
People who have tried it—and hun
dreds of folks right here in Harris
burg, have done so—say that if you
are weak. thin, nervous, rundown and
can't sleep nights, the quickest, snr
est and best way to get strong, put
on flesh, have nerves of steel and lie
able to sleep well. Is to take a 5-
grain tablet of lilond-Iroii Phosphate
w-ith every meal. The almost invari
ably remarkable benefit following the
„ use of lilooil-lron Phosphate is said
.<> to be due to the fact that it does two
things—feeds the nerves and sup
plies iron to the blood. So uniformly
successful are the reports from those
/ who have used it that Geo. A. Gor
' gas as well as all other leading drug
gists now supply Illood-lron Phos
phate under a guarantee of satisfac
tion or money back. Inasmuch as
three weeks' treatment costs nnlv
$1.50 if you like it—nothing if it fails
—every weak, thin, nervous, run
down, anaemic man or woman should
begin the use of Hlood-Iron Phos
phate to-day and get back on the road
to health, strength and happiness
without delay.

Must Give Service
to Mt. Holly Springs
The first order to be made by the
Public* Service Commission for re
placing of a public utility plant de
stroyed by fire has just been hand
ed down by Commissioner S. Ray
Shelby in the complaint of the bor
ough of Mount Holly Springs
against the M. E. Kraybill Light,
Heat and Power Co. The commis
sion made an order last year for the
borough and the company to ad
just differences and fee service to 6e
resumed. The borough then com
plained that the company was not j
furnishing street lighting although |
required to do so by contract and
that the service for commercial and
industrial purposes was inadequate.
The decision says the company ad
mitted this condition and said it
was due to destruction of its plant
by fire.
The decision also says. "The tes
timony shows that the respondent
has not had a competent man in its
employ for some time to properly
operate the plant and make repairs
to the apparatus, lines, services,
etc. The commission is of the opin
ion that the respondent should re
place the plant destroyed by fire
and have the same in operation on
or before September 1, 1919, and
on or before August 15, 1919, to em
ploy and retain in its employ a com
petent man to maintain and operate
its plant in such manner as to ren-
I der adequate and satisfactory serv
ice."

"Try-Out" Courses
For Disabled Soldiers
Washington, July 22.—The Fed
eral Board for Vocational Educa
tion has found the receiving sta
tions at which men are given "try
out" courses very satisfactory. Men
with severe disabilities, necessita
ting a complete change of work, or
men whoso knowledge of English
is very limited and who before en
listment had no recognized trade,
or others whose age, temperament,
or habits are such as to require
special training all constitute types
for whom the receiving stations are
used in order to determine the
most suitable courses for their
training.
There are at present over a thou
sand men in receiving stations tak
ing "try-out" courses. The men are
in earnest and are really trying to j
select vocations for which they are
fitted.

London, July 22.—A Mollock has
attracted attention by exhibiting be
fore the Royal Society a new form
of cinematograph which, it is said,
will prove of distinct value.
At present pictures are ofen shown
at a rate considerably higher than
that at which the photographs were
taken in order to avoid the flicker
ings due to intermittent allumina
tion. Mollock's model, it is claim
ed. illuminates the screen continu
ously, thus allowing the picture to
be shown at any rate desired

speed at which the events occurred.

of money to "Keep Cool." Only those who were fortunate enough to have bank accounts or a surplus of cash were
I in a position to "go away" and seek a cool place on the map. Those who stayed at Home had to endure the extreme
heat, and no doubt you have had some experience along that line, but it's no longer necessary to go away. You can

lars in behalf of your own comfort. During this week we will sell

With the hottest part of the summer just approaching—the days
when you almost wish you had an electric fan or some other cooling process surrounding you,
m surely men will not look lightly upon an opportunity to have comfort when they can get so much of it for so small an
investment—This is the time to spend to save.
| We have plenty of the "Palm Beach" suits in light, medium and dark shades, 1
waist seams, slash pockets, or in all the best conservative models. The last two seasons we have had a Palm
Beach Week and, frankly, we are fairly swamped on these occasions. We expect, with the enormous growth and increasing popu
larity of this Live Store, ' that this occasion will be far greater than ever before, come here as early in the week as possible. Your
suit may need a few alterations—although our "Palm Beach Suits" are so well proportioned that in very many cases we can fit men
with scarcely any adjustments.
