DECLARES ACTORS
WILL TAKE FIGHT
TOA FINISH
Executive Secretary Says
Their Union Must Be
Recognized
"•J Associated Prc.it.
New York, Aug. 18.—Reinforced
by the sympathetic strike of stage
hands and musicians called Satur
day night. Frank Gillmore, execu
tive secretary of the Actors Equity
Association, issued a statement de
claring that the actors were pre
pared to carry their tight for union
recognition to a finish.
, Mr. Gillmore made public a let
jar from Samuel Untermyer, who
•recently agreed to act without com
, pensation as counsel for the actors.
' urging that "under no circum
stances should any settlement be
considered that does not continue to
recognise your association as here
tofore. If you now surrender your
just right to recognition your fight
is lost."
How far the strike of stagehands
and musicians would spread was
uncertain early to-day as officials of
those unions were resting on their
arms and issued no statements. The
actors were confident, however, that
the sympathetic strike would be
come nationwide if that proves nec
essary to enable them to win.

1 Why I Talk About j
o Values and Service
• I
•In My Advertising i

w "I note that very little of your advertising is I
X devoted to describing your actual merchandise
v Miss Sachs," remarked a customer recently.
A "And I've wondered why you pursued a policy
j so different from that of most stores."
"There are several reasons," I replied. "One
0 is that it is impossible to adequately describe
• g;oods of the quality I display. A clever advcr-
Q tising writer can employ glowing phrases to
• make a cheap shoddy frock seem very beautiful.
0 I refuse to compete on that basis. As a matter
• of fact my shop hadn't been open a month before
0 every woman in Harrisburg knew that my shop 1
Jt displayed goods which were so far superior in
V style and workmanship to those of any other !
'i local store that there were no grounds for com
v parison.
, 'But there were, and still are, many women
Q who assume that they have to pay more for mer
• chandise of the character of mine. This is a
Q mistake. In the long run a woman saves money 1
• by dealing here. She may pay more by the
U single article but she spends less by the year. I
That is why I talk values."

PROPAGANDA BY PHONE
The Japan Consumptive Preven
tion Association, or the Nihon Yek
kaku Yobo-Kai, carried out an
aerial propaganda last Sunday, and
as Tokio people were out in force
6eeing the sights, the printed mat
ter whirling down from the sky was
a startling method to awaken them
to their social duties.
Thousands of folks out for a holi
day in Ilibiya Park, sitting quietly
on the benches admiring the many
hued azaleas and listening to the |
distant sound of the military band
playing for the amusement of the
Sunday crowds, suddently saw
something falling through the air
and watched the arrival of propa
ganda leaflets with open-mouthed
astonishment.
One read as folows: "Consump
tion sputa are fireless explosives;"
another, "Long nails are a den of
the cursed disease." Still others
read, "Where no sunlight enters the
doctors enters," and "By watering
lay the dust; by wind blow away the
damp."—Far Eastern Bureau Bul

Militarization of German
Police Is Contrary to
Terms of Peace Treaty
Coblonz, Saturday, Aug. 16. —The
| militarization of German police,
i contrary to the terms of the Treaty
i of Peace, already has been begun,
; according to information reaching
American authorities here. In the
city of Cassel the police were re
cently completely organized on mili
tary lines by the Prussian govern
ment, it is said, and are now
equipped with steel helmets and
rifles and follow the routine of a
military company in their barracks.
| Of the 300 state police in office in
i Cassel, 100 have elected to be trans
| ferred to the new organization and
| the remainder have been given
j places in the civil service.
The ultimate size of the new mili
| tary militarized police organization
[ has not been announced. Americans
j studying the demobilization and re
j organization of the Germany army
! say that the signiticance of milltar-
I izing police in Germany is great.

OMAR'S RISE TO FAME
The appearance in the auction
room of one of the most remarkable
collections of editions of Omar
Khayyam naturally recalls the early
history of the famous Rubaiyat. |
that might so easily have missed i
finding its remarkable position in j
ahe world of books. When Filz- i
gerald translated the Persian poet,
Bernard Quaritch probably had
deep regrets that* he had elected to
publish it.
One may believe that it was with
no feeling of pride as a publtshcr
that he marked down the first edi
tion and left it for somebody to dis
cover in his "twopenny box" where
economical book buyers hunted for
hargains. If, coming out of tiie
"twopenny box," it had missed at
tracting the notice of such con
noisseurs of the written word as
Rossetti and Swinburne, the
Rubaiyat would very likely have
' continued placidly on its way to ob
livion.
No other book ever started froin
a "twopenny box" on a journey in
the world of letters that eventually
j included so many of such varied
I editions; yet It may be questioned
whether it was not the phraseology
of the translator rather than the
thought of the poet that really
started it and Jcept it going.

FKW people know that some of the largest corporations in the coun
*ry..haVe a " their commercial framing done at Saltzgiver's Art and
. Antique Shop, 223 North Second street. But the fact remains, they
f ,eth,elle m Steel Company has every bit of its work done there,
sending photographs that Mr. Saltzgiver has framed to everv part of the
world. Large local concerns, including the Elliott-Fisher Company and
*, a u r K Manufacturing and Boiler Works, do likewise, knowing
tnat the results are sure to be satisfactory. Mr. Saltsg'.ver carries a big
moldlns antl and is prepared to till any order pre
sented to him. Incidentally, he does the work for the State Capitol.
I HAVE seen many tricolette
frocks during the past few
weeks, but Saturday I discov
ered one that makes the others give
up in despair. It was hanging on a
rack at the Cloos Shop, in the Penn-
Harris building, and it dared me to
pass it without a second glance.
Needless to say, I failed to accept
the dare. Or.' the contrary, I ex
amined it most carefully. Rich
go'd embroidery completely covers
the sleeves and entire upper part of
the dress. The wide sash effect is
faced with old blue and touches of
old blue appear at the neck and in
the embroidery. The lines are per
fectly straight and the navy blue of
the tricolette forms a fitting back
ground for the gold of the embroid
ery.
AND now for a continuation of our little talks on the high cost of
coffee. The Grand Union Tea Company people, 208 North Second
street, want me to tell you just why it has increased in value. Their
policy is to carry the best coffees possible for the lowest possible price.
And they do; But just at present, due to unnatural conditions, they are
actually forced to charge more than they desire. Here is one of the many
reasons why: The monthly consumption of Brazilian and Central Ameri
can coffee in the United States is about 625,000 bags. At present we have
in this country approximately 300,000 bags, or less than two weeks' sup
ply. To this, however, we must add 700,000 bags en route to our shores,
making about a two months' supply. When you consider the great short
age in next season s crop I shall tell you about it later—and the elements
we discussed before, you can easily see why coffee prices continue to soar.
EVERYbody's knitting now! In
deed, the knitting habit has
swept the country like an
epidemic. Considering the indus
trious manner in which the women
"knit, kr.-it" during the war,
one would think they'd be ready to
call a halt. But they aren't. Only
now the work takes on a different
sort of fascination. No longer does
Milady knit in shades of olive drab
or navy blue. Scarcely! The ne
cessity for that has passed away
and yarns of gayest hues tempt her
to turn her efforts to making soft,
gay sweaters for herself. At the
Art and Gift Shop, 105 North Sec
ond street, she will find every de
scription and sort of yarn, including
a fine line of Shetland floss, in the
newest shades, and imported An
gora for collars and cuffs.

THERE is little need for me to
say anything about the qual
ity, style and pattern of the
I* rench Shop voiles. Everyone
knows just how superior they are in
every way, but everyone does not
know .that for this entire week Miss
Swope is putting them on sale at
50 cents a yard. Can you imagine
anything more unusual than the op
portunity to procure a lovely voile
at such a price? I can't. Even
though you do not need a new frock
this season, it will surely pay you
to buy material to put away until
next year? Then, too, you'll desire
a handkerchief with a colored bor
der to harmoniie, or a white em
broidered one. such as Miss Swope
is selling at the special price of 15
cents.
ENTER, the Festival of Shirts!
Where is it being held? Why,
at Doutrichs, of course. With
out a doubt, this is destined to be
the biggest shirt week in the his
tory of the Doutrich establishment.
For just $2.89 they are selling the
most wonderful $3.50 shirts that
anyone could desire. Despite the
scarcity of superior fabrics, the
quality is excellent and the color
ings are of unusual heauty. Ar
tistically blended, they b.-ing out
the perfection of the weave and
gain an effc-t such as only skilled
artists can produce. Customers are
thronging the Doutrich store, be
cause they know that the oppor
tunity offered is truly a remarkable
one.
