    MAKE FLASHLIGHT HATTERIES
WHEN THEY ARE NEEDED
With a fresh battery, the popular
electric flashlight is beyond criticism.
Unfortunately, the battery does not stay
fresh, deteriorating, even if not used.
An enterprising manufacturer has taken
advantage of this opportunity to put
on the market an outfit for making bat
teries as they are needed. The outfit
consists of six empty zinc cells, six
carbon electrodes, surrounded with de
polarizer and surmounted by a cork,
and materials for the electrolyte. The
ingredients keep indefinitely. The cells
are supplied in standard size.—Popu

Hats off. Scouts! Have a big cheer

j the burrs growing on the chestnut

I in the air, the golden rod is waving
j in the holds; the broad leaves on the

last Tuesday evening when he saw
Troop 8 on his lawn. The Troop
played games and then refreshments
were served. There were about 20
Scouts present. These same 20 Scouts
of the Troop wish to extend their
thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Brooke for
the very enjoyable evening which
they spent there.
Our cornroast was a success as far
as Scouts were concerned. When
a campflre is started and Scouts are
grouped around it, there is always
fun.
At the last meeting we decided to
hike along the Yellow Breeches creek
on Labor Day. The hikers will leave
the troop headquarters at 8 o'clock
on Monday morning prepared to hike
all day. An opportunity will be given
those who wish to take outdoor ex
aminations. Plans were also made
for two bicycle rides. One la to Get
tysburg and return. The Scouts will
meet on the Harrisburg side of the
Market street bridge at 5.30 o'clock
on Thursday morning and return on
Saturday. All who Intend to go on
the other ride will meet at the troop
headquarters at 1 o'clock on Thurs
day afternoon. They will ride to
Carlisle and return. Enough "eats"

Western Strike Is
Crumbling as Result
of Warning From U. S.
By Associated Press.
San Francisco, Aug. 29. The strike
of railway men in the extreme west
and southwest, from indications, was
crumbling to-day, following the warn
ing of Walker D. Hines. director gen
eral of railroads, that if they did
not operate trains by 7 a. m. to-mor
row. the railroad administration
j would undertake to do so.
j San Francisco yardmen, out about
, 30 hours, agreed to return to work
jat 8 o'clock this morning. Strikers
| at San Jose, Tracy and Oakland, re
turned to work last night.
Resumption of work at Los Angeles
awaited approval of meetings to-day
j of union officers and locals they rep
resented.
At San Bernardanio, where mem
! hers of the big four brotherhoods are
I out, the engineers were said to have
expressed willingness to return to
I work, but were bound by an agree
| meat that all four crafts would re
; turn together, while other crafts con
tinued to oppose a return.
Meanwhile, traffic continued virtu
! ally paralyzed from Albuquerque, N.
! and Yuma, west to Los Angeles,
rand for a considerable distance north
, and south of that point on all lines.
No alleviation was reported from
I desert towtis, dependent upon rail
I transportation for water for domes
| tic purposes.
j Automobiles .still were being used
I to handle mail in many instances.
Washington Awaiting
Strike Developments
By Associated Press. -
, \\ aahlngton. Aug. 29. —Although it
j was thought that the drastic action
j threatened by -Director General Hines
| together with the supporting stand
taken by officials of the brotherhoods '
! involved would hasten the return to j
| normal conditions, developments to-
I day ill the railroad strike situation '
, in California and other western states I
| were being awaited with keen in
! terest here.
! Mr. .Hines in a statement addressed
■to "public officers, railroad officials
| and employes and citizens in general,"
j in the three states served notice that
; all striking employes who failed to
i return to work by the time limit set
| would find their places filled and that
j any one who interfered with or Im
[ pl>ded the use of railroad pr&perty
j would be prosecuted for having com
• mitted an offense against the United
I States. His action was considered
| the most drastic ever taken by a
! Government agency in dealing with!
I a labor situation.
j FEMALE MOSQUITO DOES '
ALL THE DEADLY WORK
j The male mosquito does not bite;
; his bill Is so blunt that he could not
' he a bloodsucker If he wished. It is
, the female mosquito that does all the
deadly work of fever, propogation, ac
cording to a writer in the Scientific
• American.
In the autumn the males die, and
the females seek winter quarters.
They hibernate in dark corners of
cellar and garret, and on the first
I warm day of the spring are out lay-
I ing their eggs. Save when extended
by the arrival of this hibernating
| period, the life of the female is one
i or two months; the male, on the other
! hand, lives but a few days. The food
of the mosquito Is the Juice and ne-3-
. lar of plants and. of course, blood—
I tho not necessarily that of man; anl
| mala reptiles, andeven caterpillars,
are bitten with the same freedom.
I The female mosquito lays from 50
I to 100 eggs at a time on anv quiet
hit of water. In about three days they
'hatch, anil though at first the larva Is
| very small, it grows rapidly and at
' tains full development In a few days.
| We have then the familiar wrigglers
I of the oldtime rain barrel and the un-
I covered cistern.
I During the lnrva stage, which lasts
from seven to fourteen days, the ma
larial variety can be distinguished
i from all others by the curiously in
dine d by virtue of the fact that It lies
I with its' body parallel to the water
i while other species hang with their
I heads downward.

Woman in Distress Finds the
Youngsters Are "Right
on the Job"
The following letter is only one
of many good reports that scout
officials are accustomed to receive
expressing the appreciation of serv
ices rendered by Scouts:
Mr. John German; Scoutmaster
Troop 13, Hurrisburg, Pa.
Mr. Dear Mr. German: May I re
port the "good turn" of two of your
scouts—Krause and Maclaughlin?
On Tuesday on my way in town,
while going over State street bridge
I got a piece of coal in my eye, and
by the time I arrived at the Square
was suffering very much with it.
I didn't know what to do until I re
membered that the Scouts had been
called for duty at headquarters that
day and judged that some of "13"
were there. I found them right
on the job" and in a few minutes T
was fixed up as well aG any doctor
could have done it.
I think it mighty fine that the
cfty has one dependable place to
look for first aid and until they get
the comfort station. .

report their good turn and wanted
them to liavo the credit.
Sincerely yours,

Nothing can happen in the city
without the Scouts participating
in some way. This is also true of
the big Kjpona celebration next
Monday, "ffiose in charge o fthe
affair have requested all the Scouts
of the city to be on duty during the
afternoon. Hence a request has
been issued to all Scoutmasters,
asking that the Scouts report at
Scout headquarters at half past
twelve on Monday afternoon.
Those who have passed first
class tests, oc are proficient swim
mers will be assigned to special
duty. Other Scouts will be given
the task of patrolling the water
front and keeping little children
from falling into the water. A
squad will be assigned to act as
and another group will
assist the committee in charge of
the swimming. A special squad
of signallers will send messages to
the various departments. This will
be an opporunity to put signalling
into active practice. Of couse, all
Scouts should report in uniform,
if they possess them.
teresting tales were told, and at
last the tire was put out and wo
started down the driveway toward
Derry street. As a scout is a brother
to every other scout, some of us
took turns carrying Scout Nune
macher who had tramped on a rustv
nail.
We hope that our meeting to
will show that the members
of Troop 28 are in for scouting with
both feet.
