Poor to Get Baskets
For Thanksgiving Day
Plans are under way by the Asso-j
elated Aid Society to make thirty fam- I
ilies happy oil Thanksgiving Day. They 1
J have listed those who are actually in J
I need, and are of old age. or children
who because of no breadwinner for the
family -wrc under nourished.
Attention is called to the fact that
death. Kjjijtiiess. accldt nts, and feeble
} ness from old age have entered many
homes, and a basket "just to be remem-
I bered" would do much good and bring
: happiness. There are hundreds of such
cases, but the society is anxious to pro
vide for 3u families, alio are in great
: need.
Those wishing to tielp in this good
i work, may phone the society or call at
] the rooms, o North Market Square and
, they will be given a chance to name the
I family they wish to aid.

I institution that the people who arc
jso fortunate as to have a bag left
j at their door ill) it to the brim with
i good food, so that the hospital pa
tients may have a good Thanksgiving
dinner.
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
CORRECT SPEECH
IS AIM OF ALL
EDUCATORS
Conference Discusses Plans
to Eliminate Alien Accents
From Americans
Regular campaigns should be un
! dertaken to drive out incorrect Eng
lish and foreign accents and teachers
can assist materially by using cor
rect speaking in all intercourse with
pupils according to speakers at sec
jtional meetings of. the State Educa
tional Congress to-day. Miss Olive
Hart, of Philadelphia, said that the
steps to correct English should start
'in kindergartens, not in advanced
! schools.
At the school-support section sec
tion Superintendent Eli M. Rapp.
of Reading, advocated paying rural
teachers more than city teachers so
that- they will stay in the rural dis
tricts where they are needed, while
Superintendent Ira B. Bush, of Erie,
presented an idea for national as
well as State appropriations because
of stress being placed upon the fact
that pupils of both sexes are the citi
zens of the republic. Much time was
spent in discussing new methods of
distribution of appropriations and j
collection of taxes, the* conference i
receiving numerous and diverse sug
gestions.
"Education is needed in this coun
try now more than ever," declared
Hugh Frayne, of New X'ork. general
organizer of the American Federa
tion of I-abor, in his address on the
relation of education and industry at
the general meeting of tlie State
Educational Congress in the Capitol
i last night. Mr. Frayne's address
was heard by one of the largest audi
t-noes of the whole congress, and he
came out squarely in support of edu
cation as a means of saving this
country from the chaos which has
engulfed one nation and which now
threatens other lands.
Commissioner of Labor C. B. Con
nellev, the chairman for the evening,
called for a greater measure of co
' operation between the corporations
j apd the school people in the formu
lating of such courses as are re
! quired to train men for industry.
! He spoke of what has beVn accom-
I plislied in the,way of special train
ing under the stress of war and de
clared that the lessons should lie
applied now andlhe best results
..sought by mutual understanding.
Message From Sick Room
j Just after the meeting began a
! message was received from the sick
• room of Dr. Thomas E. Finegan, the
, State SupeVintendent of Public in
jstruction, who expressed his graii
! tude for the interest taken in the
i sessions. The message was us
follows:
"I cannot tell you how grievously
disappointed I am in not being able
to idtend a single conference at thi.-i
eonjS-rss. i had anticipated that it
would be one of the greatest educa
tional meetings ever held in America.
T knew that the great educational!
workers in this Commonwealth and
their friends who came from adjoin
ing and other stales would make it
such. You have my profound ap
preciation and gratitude for the cor
dial co-operation you have given me
in organizing it and in determinin-r
that you would put forth your lies*
efforts to make it a success when
you knew of the impossibility of my
being present. While it has been •
keen disappointment to me not to lit
able to meet the large number of
my Pennsylvania friends this week,
I shall hope to meet you in the
coming months.
"I am much improved and I ex
pect in a short time, in co-operation
with committees composed of lead
ers in educational work who have
been here this week, to begin to put
into constructive form the courses of
study, the syllabi and the general
school procedure of the State, which
your deliberations of this week shall
determine wise."
Mr. Frayne's Ideas
Tti his address. Mr. Frayne said: I
"it appears to 1110 that the world j
needs education now more than eveh|
before. The great World War has
left the peoples of many countries
in a state of unrest, and in at least I
one country anarchy and bolshevism
in its worst form prevails. In our
own country education of the right
kind seems to he needed to save us
from that which threatens the very
existence of other nations. We mast
promote education of nil kinds
founded upon social justice and right I
to all. Especially must we educate|
the foreign-speaking peoples who arc
within our borders and make them
understand what our Government
really means and stands for and that
only by becoming loyal and law
abiding citizens can they expect to
progress and be successful. We
must all be educated to understand
that if the United States is to be the
greatest Nation on earth and lead
all others it must be just to all of
its citizens and the rest of the world.
XVe have saved the world for democ
racy, now let us save democracy for)
the world."
Arthur E. Holder, of the National j
Board for Vocational Education,
spoke on what the Government i<
endeavoring to do for extension of '
industrial training.
For City Farms
War garden work so stimulated
the interest of city dwellers in farm
ing that there is a demand for agri
cultural instruction for the pupils in
most of the cities of the State, and
sucli training, instead of being a
purely rural problem, is one which
will confront the school administra
tors in urban communities. This
situation was unexpectedly brought
out at' the agricultural sectional
meeting of the State Educational
| Congress as the result of a talk by
[Orton Lowe, an Allegheny county j
assistant superintendent, who guv
experience in Pittsburgh, it was one I
of the big themes among the people
here for the conference, surpassing
even the presentation or the !>3 points
of a morally perfect man by.Milton
Fairehild or the National Institution
for Moral Instruction at Washing
ton, and the vigorous discussion of
the Woodruff teachers' salary law.
Thp sessions of the congress, which
has been very successful in opinion
of the 900 persons attending it. will
end to-morrow, and there was a
gloom east over it lute yesterday
when it was made known that Dr.
I Thomas E. Finegan, the State Super
intendent of Public Instruction, who
[conceived the idea or the gathering
j and arranged it. had been stricken
with pneumonia. He has been ill
since Saturday and was to-day said
to be in a serious condition, fie was
sent the sympathy of the confer
ences.
Tile agricultural discussion evolved
! the proposition that the time was
1 coming when cities would hu\e to
i provide farms for practical trigtruc
j lion in agriculture just as they pro
j vide playgrounds, and some experi
mental plots will lie arranged. It
'developed during 1 11.is meeting that
j Allegheny, f Chester and t 'oiiinibi i
1 counties had been very successful in
having supervisors of vocational edu
cation, and last night tho congress
| prepared to gd on record in favor
of establishment of such officers in i
every county. This will combine the
best thought of specially trained |
teachers, farm bureau agents. State
experts and farmers, and. in the I
language of one of the speakers, "get
into the schools practical farming
and home economics instead oi hav
ing them as mere conversational
themes." The Allegheny plan re
ceived much attention and 11 county
school superintendents endorsed the
idea. Under the proposition favored
the National and State governments
would divide the cost.
The all-the-year school with at
tendance voluntary in the summer
was one of the subjects that ap
peared to catch the favor of the
teachers and all at the meeting
where it came up spoke lor it.

"I tried your Mentlio-Laxene for
a cough and I. lind it the premier

Mentho-Laxene is a richly concen

CONDUCTOR SAYS HE
RE6A NED LOST GRIP
"I have regained a tirin grip on
health," said James McNally, 302
Belgrade St., Ph'la.. a P. It. T. con
ductor. "Catarrh of the stomach
caused me a lot of suffering before
Tanlac -relieved me. My stomach
became inflamed, food wou d not
digest but would form gas and poi
sons. I now have a keen appetite,
my Jfood digests, right I sleep ele
garruy and get up with a clear head
and throat. I actually feci 100 per
cent, better —thanks to Ihnlac."
Catarrh is usually detected by su_h
common symptoms us droppings in
tbe throat, frequent sneezing, bad
breath, coughing of mucus, head'-
acites, watery eyes, imperfect diges
tion, gastritis, sniffling and fullness
in the head. Tanlac was designed
to combat catarrh and. to bring
about an astonishing change in the
spirits and general condition of the
victims. Tanlac is sold here by all
leading druggists.
Prison Fire Brigade
Helps Extinguish Blaze
in Yard oi Sing Sing
By Issociated Press.
Ossinlng, N. Y„ Nov. 21. Fire,
believed to be of incendiary origin, |
seriously damaged three buildings in
the Sing Sing Prison yard early to
day. The lire started in a two-story
brick storage bouse and spread to i
the blacksmith's shop, a one-story
brick structure, and then to the one
story frame foundry building.
Nearly all the prisoners were in
the yard when the tire broke out.
Heavy guards were immediately
placed at all gates and along the
walls to prevent a rush for "safe'v."
I The damaged buildings are not
the prison proper.
I Belief that the tire may have been
| of incendiary origin is strengtbened
| by the fact that an eight-inch water
I main supplying the prison was cut
yesterday making the water supply
• furnished tlie' prison entirely inade

"Somebody undoubtedly took ad-
