H. ; Ker/nedy, yurdmaster for the Pennsy |at Marysville, tells how the work of the safety committee may be made I more effective. He says in part: i "Safety first work is a part of our ' duties which we cannot give too much consideration. It is a work |which should not be considered by i employes as the work or duty of a | few of us to be performed by the general or local safety committee, but :t is the duty of all to discover and correct all bad conditions and practices. , "Each employe should make him- j self a committee of one; he should | interest himself in this great work i for his own personal protection and . benefit and for that of his fellow ! : workmen. When he sees a condi- j tion which in his opinion Is detri mental to the safety of himself and: J others, even if it has existed for a; [long time, he should not pass it by thinkir.-g there is no use mention-: ing it as it has been that way for some time, but should bring it to j the attention of the chairman or one j of the members of the safety com-j 'mittee. Or, should he know of aj 'practice of another employe which ( is liable to endanger himself or oth- i ers, )ie should be particular to can i his attention to it and should not; re :sider that by calling his utter/- ! lion to it onca that he has fulfilled , his duty, but should also notify other members of his crew so that' they also may * ' i-.t out to the of- ! 'fender the danger to himself and |others by continuing it. "In my opinion there is only one answer to this —the co-operation of each and every employe in this work. It occurs quite often that when a member of some local com mittee calls the attention of some one in connection with a dangei - ous practice that the men do not take it in the spirit which they should and too often treat it with indifference. •If we could get each employe to spend a little time in thought on safety first work and would take into consideration the interest taken 'n this work by the officials and the amount of money expended each year by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, for safety devices and equipment in the interest and for the protection of the public and their employes against personal in jury they would all he working in the interest of safety first move ment and the committee work would be more effective, as we would all be united in this great cause."

HARRISBURG TEIEGRAP3 DRISBURGWAR VETERANS GIVEN TOWN'S TRIBUTE Welcome Home Celebration Held For Men Who An swered Nation's Call Dillsburg, Pa., Oct. 25. —The wel come which Dillsburg tendered the returned soldier boys of the Tenth district, last night, ' reflected the spirit of love and loyalty that pre vailed during the dark days of a year ago, when the boys were suf fering on the field and in the trenches of France. Nothing was spared on the Welcome Home re ception, time, money nor energy. Nearly every residence, and ull the business places of the town were gaily decorated in flags, bunting, Japanese lanterns and electric lights. A court of honor, consisting of eight white pillars, graced the Square, and another court of honor was placed before St. Paul's Lutheran 1 hurch, where the services were held. The pillars were sixteen feet in height. Judge N. Sergeant Ross, of the York county courts, and Rev. W. H. Feldmann, pastor of Union Lutheran * hurch, York, were the speakers. Bronze medals, furnished by camp No. 177, P. O. 'S. of A„ Dillsburg, were presented the service men. A parade over the principal streets of the town, was followed by a program of music and addresses, and a sump tuous banquet in the basement of the church. ■ Children of schools in the district, mothers, women war workers, and I Civil War veterans, horsemen and autos, were in line, and the town in I general turned out to bid the boys I "Welcome." Some of the boys came home, from distant cities and colleges to participate in the reception. Of the 101 boys who went into service, 47 answered the rollcall. Medals were inscribed for all and will be-kept until the boys have re turned home or are located. Medals were even inscribed for the six heroes who will never return. They were: George Stauffer, Dillsburg; Barker Weaver, Dillsburg; Charles X. Hess, Franklintown and Monroe Hunter, Dillsburg, who were killed in action on the battlefields of France.' Two who died in service were: H. W. Miller and R. D. Miller, and one who died after being discharged was W. B. Dick, Dillsburg, all of whom were eulogized by the speakers. St. Paul's Church was overtaxed to accomnfodate the people. Vis itors from HarrisDurg, Gettysburg, New York, Princeton and York, were present. Program of Exercises The following was the program: "America," congregation; invoca tion, Rev. H. C. Sperdeck; "Star Spangled Banner," congregation; vocal solo, Murray Ness; address of welcome. Rev. W. H. Feldmann, chaplain of the House of Represent atives, Harrisburg; "Battle Hymn of the Republic," congregation; vocal' solo, Murray Ness; reading of the roll of honor. J. F. Kapp, chairman lof the general committee; taps by the bugler; presentation address, Judge N. Sergeant Ross; "God Bless Our Native Land," congregation; benediction. Rev. H. E. Crow. Forty-seven soldiers answered the ! rollcall. They were: James C. Trostle, Earl K. Fishel, M. H. Cook, B. H. Deardorff, W. B. Deardorff, Jacob Cottingham, Bruce Hess, Robert Sowers, John A. Dit mer, Charles Grimes, D. H. Sheffer, George W. Miller, Paul Frysinger, Dr. W. L. Crawford, Charles S. Smith, Bruce S. Klugh, M. J. Karns, Benjamin Knaub, Ralph Slyder, Boyd S.

At the end of the rollcall_ the soldiers advanced to the front and received the medals, which were pinned on by Clarence Thumma and C. E. Cook, state representative of the district. Soldiers Banqueted At the close of the exercises the service men and Civil War veterans, clergymen and committees repaired to the basement of the church, where the banquet table was spread, in the form of a hollow square and beautifully dec orated in flowers, flags and bunting. A sumptuous banquet was served. The girls of the district waited on the guests. The Rev. Feldmann in his address of welcome, pointed out what the Kaiser did, what the soldier did, what we, at home, did, and what is left for us to do. He cited the experience of the boys at Chateau-Thierry, the Argonne, and all the big battles of the war, showing how the plans of the Kaiser to domin ate the earth were frustrated by the work of the American soldier. What tho boys endured will., be known only to them—we can only imagine. But they acquitted themselves most nobly, for they made the Huns run. The boys of this district were pitted against the choicest of Germany's troops, and put them to rout. Mr. Feldmann paid tribute to the work of the women of the district, pointing out what was done throughout the war, and up to to-night's great ovation. In the presentation address, Judge Ross spoke of the medal being sym bolic of the feelings of the people of the district toward the boys. In re ferring to the suffering of the service men, Judge Ross said that it has al ways etaken a war, bloodshed, for the uplift of the world. And this is the part the American soldier has taken in the world's history. He impor tuned the boys to keep up the work or mercy, in civil life, as in soldier life, and continue the uplift of mankind by ameliorating suffering wherever met, and thus make the world better for liuv ing lived.

In tlie course of a long address before the National Assembly which consisted mainly of a protest against recent addresses by Premier Clemenceau and what was called the "militaris tic tendency" of France toward Ger many, as well as the inconsistent spirit shown in the formation of the of Nations, foreign minister Mueller insisted to-day upon the nec essity for a speedy German evacu ation of Lithuania and Letvia. He said this step was necessary to con vince the world of Germany's sin cere desire for peace. "The German Government disap proves of the telegram sent by Gen eral Von Der Goltz recently con gratulating Col. Avploff-Bermondt on his success in the fighting ffeur Riga," he declares, "and I hope this will be the last case of a Prusslon general meddling in politics." "We are not friends of the Bolshe [ viki," Foreign Minister Mueller said jin advocating good relations with all border states, "but we protest in the sharpest manner against the blockade of Soviet Russia proposed to us by the' Entente, because it is not the Bolshevik leaders who will suffer by such a step, but the masses of the Russian people who will suffer the greatest misery. The unemploy ment and hunger which such a blockade would forster are just the things to promote Bolshevism." Rummage Sale Brings in $l,OOO For Hospital Mr§.

At 10 o'clock this morning the total amount of profit was over $l,OOO and it is estimated that when the sale closes this afternoon the sum will far exceed this. The two automobiles which were j to have been auctioned off this morn- ; ing will be sold at private sale in-,| stead, as the committee feels that ; they will realize more in this kind I of a sale for the nurses' iiome, which : is the reason for the present sale, i The present nurses building is sfc 1 overcrowded that the nurses have to | sleep in the diningroom, and it is ' assential that the new building be j secured as soon as possible. .

KINNARD HEADS BELL TELEPHONE CO. [Continued from First Pago.] the position at Lancaster, later local manager at Harrisburg, and then up to general manager of the Pennsylvania Telephone Company. This company was merged with the Bell Telephone Company of Phila delphia in 1908, and the name changed to The Bell Telephone Com pany of Pennsylvania. As president, Mr. Kinnard is now in charge of the Bell activities in the entire Slate of Pennsylvania, the lower half of New Jersey and of Delaware. Mr. Kinnard's greatest delight is to return to Harrisburg and meet his old friends apd associates. Only lust Sunday lie was in Harrisburg, participating in the One Hundredth Anniversary Celebration of 'Zion Lutheran Church, and speaking at the afternoon meeting. The election of Mr. Kinnard is a recognition of the work he did dur ing the war. With great handicaps the service rendered in the exchanges over which Mr. Kinnard had jirris diction was far better than in most other sections of the country. While a resident of Harrisburg, Mr. Kinnard* was a member of com mon council under the old bi-cameral system, president of the Board of Trade, member of the Harrisburg Club, and greatly interested in Lutheran church work. Since he has moved to Philadelphia he has been prominent y identified with numerous works, not the least that of the Committee of National De fense of the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, of which he was vice ohuirman, and the Philadelphia Ad visory Committee for the purchase of Army supplies. The first tele graph battalion (later the 40iith) of the American Expeditionary Force was organized by Mr. Kinnard from the men of his companies and saw nearly two years of service in France, being the first unit to land on for eign soil and having the task of furnishing the principal lines of telephonic communication from the headquarters of the Commander-in- Chief. Mr. Kinnard, who resides in Wyn newood, is a member of the Racquet, Engineers, Manufacturers, City, and Merlon Cricket Clubs, the Pennsyl vania Society, and numerous civic and engineering organizations in Philadelphia. John C. lynch, here tofore general superintendent of traffic, will succeed Mr. Kinnard as vice-president and general manager, and James L. Kilpatrlck, engineer of the company, becomes assistant to the general manager^ Women Believed to Be Victims of Home Manufactured Whisky llj Asaocintr'l Press / Camden, N. J..
