THE BERRYHILL
'! Locust Street at Second f
Cytstimg
THE Ming period in Chinese art, extending from 1368 to 1644 A. D.,
was a most interesting one. Completely reacting from the tendencies
exhibited in- the preceding period, when simplicity reigned supreme,
it is noted for its elaborate effects and love of ornament and elegance. Its
artists emphasized a richly decorative detail, reproducing ancient forms
with remarkable technical skill, but using complicated effects that some
what impaired the purity, without detracting from the beauty of the de
sign. In the window of the Saltzgiver Art and Antique Shop, 223 N.
Second street, stand two typical examples of this period's art in the form
of an unusual pair of candlesticks. Carved from Coramnnder wood, they
present the best features that the artists of their day had to offer.
WHY can't Adelc stop talking
about Doutrich's wash suits
for boys? She seems to be
singing their praises all the time.
And so would you were you to see
them for yourself. You may try
your level best, using all the skill
you can display, and you'll never
be able to match the patterns the
Doutrlcli store is showing. Then,
too, when you hear the prices at
which they sell—well, you'll won
der why you ever thought of buy
ir/g cloth, thread, aijd buttons and
laboring over a machine when, for
less money than it takes to pur
chase the material, you can buy the
articles already made. I'm only
talking moderately about these
wash shirts. Wait until you see
them!
FLASH went the little light—and we all avoided the puddle! Have
you ever had a similar experience? Jf you haven't, it's a confession
that you've never camped for any considerable length of time. Those
of us who have, know just how invaluable a pocket flash light proves.
Without one it is almost impossible to venture forth after dark. And
not only does the camper find a flash light indispensable, but the house
wife feels the constant need for just such a helpful little friend. When
baby is sick she keeps it close at hand; when searching the depths of some
dark closet, she seeks its aid. Indeed, were she to lose hers to-day she'd
purchase a new one to-morrow at the Dauphin Klectrical Supplies Co.,
for she finds them a necessity - .
IF I were to offer you a suit of
black, chiffon velvet luxurious
ly trimmed with soft gray
squirrel, would you take it? Fool
ish, foolish question! Unfortunately,
I can't, but the Cloos Shop in the
Penn-Harris building, can and does.
And such a beautiful suit as it is!
From the big, fur collar down to
the hem, it is perfect in every detail.
Touches of fur trim the back of the
coat a little distance below the
blouse effect which is transformed in
front into a deceptive, little jacket
and an attractive, little vest. The
entire suit is heavily embroidered
and crochetted buttons assume the
responsibility of adding just the tiny
touch necessary to make the gar
ment absolutely irresistible.
TELIL me why you hate to place an order over the telephone? Do
you fear it won't the proper attention? So often you
inconvenience yourself greatly by going out and personally at
tending to some business that could just as easily be transacted by a
few moments conversation over the wire. Take for instance a case
such as this: you hear of the sudden illness of a friend and feel like
sending fragrant flowers as a. token of your sympathy and interest.
But you simply can't find time to visit a florist. So the matter is
dropped. Now such a state of affairs is truly deplorable and ab
solutely unnecessary for at Kecney's Flower Shop, 814 North Third
street, as much care is taken in filling "plioned-in" orders as is sliowr*
under any other circumstances.

CHILDREN HOME
FROM FAR EAST
Word Received Today by J. B,
Carruthers of Their Arrival
on Different Vessels
Two interesting and unusual tele
grams were received this morning
by J. B. Carruthers, of the State
Y. M. C. A. The first one, from
Vancouver, British Columbia, stated
that his daughter, Mrs. Gordon Po
tent, has returned with her hus
band and little daughter on a short
furlough from China after four
years of missionary work in Kai
feng. Mrs. Poteat arrived at Van
couver August 18, and is coming
east byway of Winnipeg and Chi
cago. She expects to arrive at the
latter place • Sunday. After a few
days" visit along the way, she wiil
be at the home of her parents, 1350
State street.
The other telegram came from
San Francisco and was sent by his
son, Donald Carruthers, who for the
past four years has been secretary
for the Legation Guards, Military
Branch of the Y. M. C. A., at
Pekin, China. He arrived at Frisco
on the 19th affler'a delightful sta
voyage and a visit to Japan and
Korea. After stops at Omaha, Lin
coln,' Neb., and Akron he will reach
home shortly before September 1.
Mr. Carruthers states that he just
missed seeing his sister at Yoka
homa the day she sailed. They had
arranged to meet there, but weic
booked to return on different boats.
MU. AND MRS. VINTON HERE
Mr. and Mrs. Warren Jay'Vinton

on their way to their home in De

thirty people to greet them during
their brief stay here. Mr. Vintor.

lIOLD STREET FESTIVAL
A street festival will be held Fri
day and Saturday evenings in Peffei
street, between Moltke and Seventh,
for the benefit of Camp 48, P. O.
of A. There will be street dancing
as well as good things to eat. In
case of rain the event will be post
poned a week.
WE all resent being' made tctf
assume unnatural positions.
And yet that is just exactly
J what some photographers force us
to do when we visit their studios.
| They insist upon having us pose,
| forgettir.-g that only actresses and
models have mastered that difficult
I art. Naturally we become irritated
j and strained with the result that
our proofs are so disappointing that
we go through the whole process
again, only to meet with a second
disappointment. Now Roshon, the
Market Street Photographer, know
ing that people of refinement do not
wish to bo arbitrarily twisted into
all sorts of positions, allows them
lto assume natural and beautiful
| postures. Consequently his portrai
tures are "the talk of the town."
ifT LOVE coffee,
I love tea,

but no matter what else I love, it's
thctea and coffee that X 1 want to
tnlk about this time. Particularly
the tea. Sometimes I think the
English people are the wisest folk
in all the world because, no matter
what comes, they daily treat them
selves to a cup or two of that de
licious beverage. But we are be
ginning to emulate their example.
In many homes tea is served with
great regularity. And it is to the
lovers of this stimulating drink that
! wish to say—"Go to the Grand
Union- Tea Co., 208 N. Second street,
purchase one of their excellent
brands, and I'm willing to guarantee
that you'll never go elsewhere

Old Graduates Invited to At
' tend Next Week's Picnic
at Hcrshey Park
Great interest is centering about
the Harrisburg High School alumni
picnic at Hershey Park. Thursday
of next week, when it is estimated
that several thousand "grads,"
former students and faculty mem
bers of the Forster street institution
will assemble for the first big "get
together" in the history of the
school.
The picnic is unique in the respect
that it will be the first organized at
tempt to present to a large number
of Harrisburg citizens at one time,
the High School problem which con
fronts the city to-day.
Dr. Frederick E. Downes, Super
intendent of the city's schools, will
be one of the speakers at the big
mass meeting which will take place
in the Park theater late in the af
ternoon, and he will discuss the High
School situation- thoroughly.
Lieutenant-Governor E. E. Beidle
man, vice-president of the alumni
association, will be the other speaker
of the day, and he will explain the
purpose of the alumni association
and its aims. Lieutenant-Governor
Beidleman was gradtlated from the
High School, class of 189'2.
A great majority of the classes
have appointed individual picnic
committees to boost the affair, and
these committees are working hard
to secure a record attendance from
their respective classes.
Souvenir Programs
Three thousand circulars describ
ing the picnic have been distributed
among the alumni, and several hun
dred window cards displayed
throughout the city. Individual
classes are planning special
"stunts" for the big time, and
the general picnic committee is pre
paring for a record crowd.
Entering the grounds, the High
Sc'hool students will be "tagged"
with Blue and Gray ribbons, con
taining their class nunjerals, by a
special committee from the class of
1921.
Souvenir programs, in thp form of
a 16-page booklet will be distributed
also, at the entrance to the park.
This booklet is now being prepared
under the direction of Carl Stoner,
•19.
Plans for running a special train
are under consideration, although it
is probable that no action will be
taken in this direction, it being con
sidered likely that extra coajches
will bo provided on the Philadelphia
and Heading trains leaving here at
10.20 a. m. and 1 p. m., for Hershey
Park.
A score of prizes have been con
tributed by Harrisburg merchants,
j and they will be awarded to win
r ners of the various athletic events,
| which will be staged on both land
. and sea (the Hershey swimming
pool), under the direction of Robert
I Michael, president of the class of
'l6, who is chairman of the sports
committee.
Other big features are said to be
under consideration by the members
of the general committee, and they
will bo announced several days be
fore the picnic.

New York City, who is well known
here, is registered at the Penn-

Striking Women
Cry For Husbands,
Then Fight Starts
Milwaukee, Wfs., Aug. 20.—One
i man was 'killed, eight others were
shot, one of them probably mor
tally wounded, and scores of other
persons cut and bruised in a riot of
strikers from the Cpdahy packing
plant at Cudahy, near here, late
yesterday.
Three companies of State Militia
were ordered to the scene last night
by Colonel Phillip Wetsphal, acting
under instructions from Governor
Philipp. In the meantime, eighty
deputy sheriffs will attempt to
maintain order.
The break occurred when women
from the office force attempted io
leave the plant and were stoned by
wives of the strikers. When depu
ties attempted to assist the workers
to safety, the women rioters
screamed for their husbands and
when the men joined the lighting
the officers were helpless under a
fusillade of missiles. Firing was be
gun. Each side accuses the other
of starting the gunfire.
