CONSULT TICKET AGENT PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD Announces the Inauguration of The Best Cable News Service in the World A brilliant corps of special writers and correspondents—over thirty in num ber—located in the most strategic news centers of Europe, South America and the Orient, will cable exclusive news dispatches and special articles daily, so the reader will be kept in close touch with the news of the entire world.

Place Your Order for the DAILY and SUNDAY PRESS NOW TUESDAY EVENING* LUTHERANS OPEN ANNUAL SESSION Routine Business Taken Up With the Rev. Dr. S. W. Herman in Chair The first business session of the seventy-eighth annual synod of the United Lutheran Churches was held this morning at 9 o'clock in St. Matthew's Lutheran Church, Green and Seneca streets. The Rev. S. Winfield Herman, of Harrisburg. presided as president of the synod. Following the calling of the roll, the report of the retiring president was read, and then officers for the coming ytiars were elected. The Rev. Mr. Herman, in his report, cov ' erad the entire activities in the Lu theran field during the past year and advocated many new changes in the work of the district. He espe cially emphasized the support of the church paper which was not be ing given any assistance at all by the congregations of the Lutheran churches in the Eastern district. Suggestions were also made for the carrying on of the work from u financial point of view, and increas ed attendance urged. Last evening the Rev. Dr. Herman preached a sermon on "Preaching Jesus Christ." After the meeting a reception was held for the delegates to the synod. Quite a warm argument arose this morning as to whether a clergyman could represent a congregation in the place of a lay member who was unable to be present. After many suggestions pro and con, the decision was finally left to the president, who decided against it. Upon the re opening and arguing ot the ques tion, it was referred to a vote, which sustained the judgment of the presi dent. CALL OFF DEMONSTRATION By Associated Press. San Francisco, Oct. 7.—Because of strikes now in progress in various parts of the United States a general demonstration announced for Oc tober 8, on behalf of "military and political prisoners" would not be ad visable, according to a statement made public to-day by E. D. Nolan, secretary treasurer of the Interna tional Workers Defense League, un der whose auspices the movement was planned. To Have Curly, Wavy Hair Like "Nature's Own" Women who have trouble keeping their hair In curl, or of securing the desired wavy effect —and especially those who realize the harm that the hot iron does to the hair—will do well to try plain liquid silmerine. In no other way can they acquire such pretty waves and curls, having all the appearance of "Nature's own." And the hair, instead of being sing ed ragged or dead looking, has such a lively luster and wholesome beauty. If you will get a bottle of liquid silmerine at any drug store and fol low the accompanying directions, you will be simply delighted with the re sult. This product is of course per fectly harmless and there is nothing sticky, greasy or unpleasant about it. The hair will be quite manage able, no matter in what fashion it is done up. NO TIME SHOULD BE LOST IN ERECTING CITY MEMORIAL Y E. J. STACKPOLE Harrisburg is going to show its appreciation of its soldiers, sailors and marines by the prompt erection of a dignified memorial at Thirteenth and State streets. Under the plan adopted by the spe cial committee of citizens appointed to raise th? fund for this me morial, contributions on the basis of S2O for each service man who went out in response to the call of Uncle Sam have been invited and it ought to be the pleasure of this patriotic community to give, and give quickly, for this purpose. The basis of S2O per man is so rea sonable that there can be no question of the propriety of the scheme outlined. Already individual contributors have reported to the Chamber of Commerce subscriptions in favor of one or more soldiers, and the fact that the estimated cost has been divided into S2O gifts gives the campaign a personal touch which no other financial appeal had dur ing the war period. We have welcomed home the boys who went out in the service of their country, and we must now erect a permanent and appropri ate marker which will stand throughout the years as an evidence of the recognition by this community of what the Harrisburg men did and for what they stood in the great war. The giving for this me morial ought to be spontaneous and no time should be lost in raising the fund. Every Harrisburg man. woman and child ought to have a part in this important undertaking. I Lists of Germans Wanted For Trial Do Not Have Name of Kaiser By Associated Press. Paris, Oct. I.—The newspapers announce that the lists of German officials and other persons to be de livered to the Allies for trial are now practically ready for submission to Germany. The papers point out that the lists do not contain the name of the formeo emperor of Germany, who is to be dealt with separately. Omission of the name of the for mer German monarch from the lists of persons whom Germany is re quired to surrender for offenses in violation of the laws and customs of war has no significance sinco the Peace Treaty makes a clear dis tinction between "William II of Hohenzollern, formerly German em peror," whos indictment for "a su preme offense against international morality and the sanctity of treat-l ies" is contained in one article of the j Treaty, and persons accused of hav ing committed acts in violation cf the laws and customs of war, whoae surrender and trial is provided for | in another article. In the protocol, l signed at the same time as the' j Treaty, it was provided that the lists j of individuals whom, according to' [the second article, Germany must' [surrender for trial would be sent to [Germany within a month after the Treaty came into force by ratifica tion of three great powers. | The surrender of the former em peror is, according to the Treaty, to |be demanded from the government ]of The Netherlands, not Germany .and his trial is to take place be | fore a special international tribunal not a court martial.

Toble, of Washington, who compli mented the Red Cross for Its suc cessful efforts in establishing nu merous centers of this kind through out the country. W. L. Garwood, of Pittsburgh, presented the junior membership side and urged keen re cruiting for that section of the Red Cross. Coimtess Laura Turcyznowlcz, who spoke this afternoon, Is one of the most forceful speakers on the Red Cross to-day.

He and his entire staff were quartered at the castle of the Countess. At luncheon to-day the executive committee went over the plans for the winter and more particularly for the great final membership drive which Is to take place the first week in November.
