HIS CHIEF TROUBLE
There is an elevator boy in a New
York office building who is among
a large number of public
who resent needless questions.
One day there entered his car a
rather fussy old lady, and garrulous
as well.
"Don't you ever feel sick going
up and down in this elevator all
day?" she asked.
"Yes, ma'am." said the boy.
"Is it the motion going down?"
"Na, ma'am." *
"The motion going up?"
"No, ma'am."
"Is it the stopping that does it?"
"No, ma'am."
"Then what is it?"
"Answering questions, ma'am." —
Everybody's.

Police Have 16-Year-Old
Boy Suspected of Theft
Arrested near Millerstown yes
terday, Harvey Harton, 16 years old,
of Philadelphia, was turned over to
the Harrisburg police last night, sus
pected of having taken, in addition
to an automobile, a bicycle and a
number of articles, including a Lib
erty Bond, |39 in cash, a revolver
and other things, from H. R. Back
enstoss, 432 Nectarine street.
The youth is alleged to have taken
the automobile from near Mifflin,
after sawing a three-inch chain
from a rear wheel. At the time he
is said to have been riding a stolen
hicycle, which he abandoned when
he found the automobile. Near Mil
lerstown, he aroused suspic
ion of Harvey Snydman, of that
place. It was learned to-day that a
warrant was issued here for his ar
rest more than a week ago, fol
lowing the disappearance of the
articles at the Backenstoss home.
Scientific Discussions
by Garrett P. Serviss
At the recent semi-centennial cele
bration of Cornell University, thou
sands of graduates, representing a
dozen successive four-year classes, as
sembled together in rejoicing crowds on
the beautiful hill -above Cayuga Lake,
and renewed half-forgotten ties, re
called old fellowships and cheered for
Alma Mater.
Sitting around the gorgeously striped
canvas pavilions, pitched on the greens,
were groups of gray-haired graduates
of the early seventies and eighties of
the last century—now become judges,
lawyers, doctors, engineers, manufac
turers, heads of great Industrial en
terprises, authors, preachers, profess
ors, farmers every one wearing his
class button with his name printed on
It, as a ready means of introduction
and identification. They came from
almost every State in the Union, and
many motored to the meeting frpm
long distances, often more than a
thousand miles.
As I looked at them, and noticed
how many of the faces of the older
men seemed to bear only the marks
left by worldly prosperity, acquired by
stern methods, I felt a certain dis
appointment. Boys whom I had known
as rosy-cheeked, careless free-hearted
open-minded, eager for learning, full
ot delighted aatonishment at the new
world that opened before them in the
academic halls, were now roll-chinned,
puff-lipped, hard-cheeked, cold-eyed,
pompous, unresponsive personages, ap
parently proud only of the treasures
they had plied up where moth and
rust corrupt, and with no outward
sign that any influence upon the spirit
had been Implanted in them during
their student days.
And yet, us I found out, even they
had gained soaiethlng in those early
days of which they seemed hardly
aware. They had not comprehended
Emerson's difficult axioms of "literary
ethics;" they had not, with him, re
jected that "maxim of low prudence,"
which avers that "the first duty is to
get land and money, place and name"
—such things were beyond them, as
they mußt be beyond the vast ma
jority of the earth's Inhabitants, as
long as the physical bases of human
life remain what they <re, but, never
theless, they had got a little leaven
which virtually transformed their
lives.
It had put books Into their houses
and memories and thoughts of other
things than ledgers, profits, prices cur
rent and idle pretentious, or vicious
amusements into their heads. And I
saw that their sons and daughters
had benefited from their touch of lib
eral education more than they who
had received it In the second gen
eration lt had become an inheritance.
Whatever biologists may decide
about the physical inheritance of ac
quired characters, it is certain not only
that acquirements, by the at
mosphere tlley csaate around them,
produce the effect of inheritance upon
succeeding generations, but that that
effect is in Itself cumulative.
OCTOBER 1, 1919.
Life's Problems
Are Discussed
By MRS. WILSON' W'OODROW
Like Don Quixote, most of us
spend a lot of time and energy in
tilting at windmills.
There is nothing whatever the
matter with the windmills. They
are perfectly good, steady-going use
ful features of the landscape; but
we imagine them to bo something
else.
To our alarmed eyes they appear
to be terrible obstacles to our prog
ress, and we rush against them full
tilt, thereby doing no ljarm to any
one but ourselvees.
Here is a letter from a girl who
is lighting against what seems to
her an impossible strong windmill.
"Dear Mrs. Woodrow: Here is a
pretty hopeless case. Me ego
tistic, selfish, disagreeable, mean lit
tle me! And I have a quick, hasty
temper, too. So I am writing you,
who solve so many problems, to ask
if there is any hope.
"What is a girl with so horrid
nature to do? I've tried ever so
many times, and I've resolved time
and again to refrain from hurting
those who love me; but I'm hor
rid—that's just it, and I don't seem
able to change.
"Older people suy I am spoiled.
Maybe I am, but really I don't
like to be. 1 would much rather
say nice things, but the sarcastic,
cutting ones always come to my lips,
and when I lose my temper I don't
know what I am saying.
"Now admit it; am I not hope
less? Or will you encourage me
by saying that perhaps I am not
all sour, and that there is a vest
ige of sugar left in my composition?
Or, still better, you may be able to
suggest some magic that will work
desired change.
"I know this sounds like a lot of
nonsense, but the idea of being so
disagreeable to others as well as
myself is making ne very unhappy.
"Won't you please write an article
telling how to conquer the bad
traits in one's character? I am
sure it will be appreciated by many."
Dear girl, I am at present out of
my stock of magic, and all I can
offer you is a little commonsonso of
the plain, everyday variety, but war
ranted to wear better than magic.
Instead of nursing and coddling
those faults of yours and watching
them continually to see how fast
they grow, suppose you treat them to
a little wholesome neglect. The
minute you begin to watch youreelf
and try your best to curb your cut
ting remarks, you will hear yourself
uttering a stream of them. Don't
take them so seriously.
Take your attention off them for
a season and consider instead their
very nice reverse sides.
The reverse side of sarcasm is wit
and nimbleness of mind. The re
verse side of a quick temper is
often generosity and that valuable
quality known as "pep." Get a truer
perspective on yourself. The world
takes us at our own valuation, and
your valuation of yourself is enough
to make anyone who enjoys good
company—and who does not?—
shrink from you.
It is a part of your business in
life to be so disciplined and culti
vated that you are charming and
gracious, but not too sweet. The
too sweet person is like fish with
out lemon, or apple pie without
cheese, or ham without mustard.
Even jam should have a lingering
tartness.
Your opinion of yourself is mor
bid. And what makes people mor
bid Brooding and worrying over
some particular thing. Time spent
in introspection is more often than
not time wasted.
we are always being told to look
within, discover what our faults
some weaknesses are and then re
solve steadfastly and earnestly to
overcome them. O fudge! It's
more often than not a dreary and
depressing futility.
The reason you worry so_ over
your faults and failings is because
you have not enough to occvjpy your
mind. You are no doubt a strong,
forceful character, and your natural
energy has no especial outlet, so
you use it in a petty, destructive
way, which is, of course, not worthy
of you.
Turn around and make that en
ergy constructive. There must be
something which you would like
especially to do. You may have
some real gift which is begging for
expression, or you may have a head
for business. I, of course, do not
know. It is up to you to discover
the thing at which you believe you
could excel and then absorb your
self in it. Instead of analyzing and
dissecting your thoughts, lose your
self in something that absorbs all
your attention, and you will find
that in your hours of recreation you
will be gay and glad, instead of sour
and sad as you are at present.
The old habits of speech will hang
on for a while, but if you don"t
notice them they will gradually
cease. And even if you do hurt
someone's feeling now and then, do
not agonize over it. Most ppople
are perfectly well able to take care
of themselves in a verbal encounter,
and they shouldn't so so sensitive
any way.
City Will Continue as
Surety Co..Headquarters
The tranfer of the Pennsylvania
Surety Company, a well-known
bonding concern of this city, to New
York and Boston capitalists is of spe
cial interest here because of the au
thorized statement of the purchasers
that Harrisburg will continue to be
the main headquarters of the com
pany. E. H. Manning will have the
management of the underwriting of
the company. The names of other
officials will be announced in the
near future. As was stated in the
Telegraph yesterday, John R. Henry,
the present secretary, who is likely
to become one of the vice-presidents
and treasurer, will continue with the
new owners. Mr. Henry has had
large experience in the bonding
business.
Mr. Manning, who lias conducted
negotiations for the transfer of the
control of the local company to the
outside interests has been one of the
principal assistants of Edward C.
Lunt, vice-president of the Fidelity
and Casualty Company of New
York. He is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Maryland, is a lawyer and
is a member of the bar in a number
of states. In New York he is a
member of a number of prominent
clubs, including the Crescent Ath

i METHODISTS ARE
I OVER TOP HERE;
TEAM IS ACTIVE
Willi 354 Young People Regis
tered For Work City
Makes Good Record
The Methodist Headquarters team
which is holding Christian activities
conferences in all the Methodist dis
tricts of the country, last Sunday
held one of the most successful
young people's meetings in Ridge
Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church
ever held in the Harrlsburg District.
Tlie team consists of Chaplain J.
V. Thompson, Secretary of Young
Peoples' Work of the Board of Sun
day Schools of the Methodist Epis
copal Church; Miss Dorothy E.
Mead, of Chicago, in charge of the
social work program of the Board
of Sunday Schools; Dr. G. Franklin
Ream, executive secretary of the
Life Work Bureau for the entire
Methodist Episcopal Church, and
Dr. Robert Brumley, executive secre
tary of Life Work Service and In
stitutes for the Central Office of the
Epworth League.
This team has held eighteen con
ferences to date and the largest en
roling nt up to the Harrisburg Dis
trict t onferencc to date was 145.
Harrisburg, as usual, broke all
former records and set a new high
water mR-k by having three hun
|dred flfty-four young people, between
the ages of eighteen and twenty-live,
or thereabouts, register.
Auditorium Filled
The spacious auditorium of Ridge
Avenue Church was tilled to over
flowing at the morning service. This
large audience heard Chaplain
Thompson preach a sermon taken
from the text concerning the wise
and foolish virgins, that portrayed
great necessity for preparedness and
training of Christian young men and
women so that when the opportun
ity for real service for the Kingdom
comes they will be ready to re
spond.
Between four and five hundred
people attended the afternoon serv
ice, which was in chnrge of the.
young people of the district, with
Leon Simonetti, President of the
Teen Age Union of Harrisburg, pre
siding. The young people who spoke
were William Ray Chapman, Edu
cational Director of Grace Church;
Charles Baumeister, of York; Miss
Miriam Brown, Junior League Super
intendent of the Harrisburg District
Epworth Lengue, and Miss Dorothy
Risliel, of Camp Curtin Church.
Adjourns For Fellowship
Chaplain Thompson brought to
the delegates some of the materials
and methods that could he used in
young peoples' work and Miss Mead
very forcefully portrayed what rela
tion the young people should have
to the local church program. The
conference adjourned at 5.30 for a
Fellowship Period of one-half hour,
when the delegates from the various
•charges were introduced to each
other, and due to the certain seat
ing arrangements, practically every
one got an opportunity to shake
hands with each of the delegates
and learned their names and their
location.
Dinner Is Served
Promptly at six o'clock dinner
was served to the delegates with Mr.
and Mrs. George Phillips, as caterers.
The tables were artistically deco
rated by the local Ridge Avenue
Decorating Committee, as was the
main church auditorium.
Promptly at seven o'clock Miss
Mead took the young women into
a conference on subjects pertaining
to their particular lines of action,
j and Chaplain Thompson took the
young men in for a separate con
ference. Both of these leaders of
young people gave straight-from
tlie-shoulder talks on the physical
relationship of young people towards
each other and towards the church
and community.
Make Forceful Addresses
At 7.30 o'clock the conference re
i convened, and a large number of
visitors joined with the convention
delegates in listening to an address
by Chaplain Thompson on "Ameri
canizing America," followed by an
address by Dr. J. Franklin Ream,
on "Life Service."
Both of these addresses were
forceful and no thoughtful young
' person could attend especially this
session of the conference without
I feeling a great desire to studiously
■ look himself or herself in the face
| and see if there was any possibility
i of them really being of any service
! for the Kingdom either in the Home
i or Foreign field.
Dr. Hoekman Presides
Dr. Edgar R. Heckman, Superin
| tendent of the Harrisburg District,
presided at all the meetings of the
convention, and the Rev. J. Merril
Williams, of Camp Hill, conducted
the devotional periods, with Charles
W. 8011, Executive Chairman of the
Conference, and the Rev. E. C. Ke
• boch, Sunday School Specialist for
the Board of Sunday Schools, having
charge of the general arrangements.
Promptly at 9.15 the conference was
adjourned, and Dr. George Preston
Mains, treasurer of the Episcopal
Fund of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, and former publisher of the
Methodist Book Concern of New
York city, pronounced the benedic
tion.

Rain Is No Interference;
Fans See Today's Game
Rain in Harrisburg did not mean
anything to the baseball fans. As
long as Cincinnati and the White
Sox were in action in Cincinnati, lo
cal fans had a chance. They took
it to-day and a big crowd watched
the game played on the Lew Rltter
electrcial board at Chestnut Street
Auditorium. The game started on
time. Every play was given close
attention and it was Just like being
at the game to see this board in
operation. Every game will be play
ed this way. Lew Ritter has pleased
local fans for several years in this
manner.
Larger Percentage For
New York Giants to Win
That the game on Monday be
tween New York Giants and Klein
Chocolate Company team, will be
a real battle is assured by Manager
Brackenridge. He regrets Monday's
indifferent playing on the part of
Washington. His contract for the
Monday game includes a stipulation
that by winning the Giants will get
more money than if they lose. This
will put both teams on their mettle.
The game will start at 3.30 and will
be played at Island Park.
The contract also calls for the
players announced yesterday. The
Washington players explained that
their season had ended and many of
them left for their homes after the
game in Harrisburg. It was un
derstood by Manager Brackenridge
that he would get a squad of eleven
players including Walter Johnson.
