I HAPPENED to go into a friend's attic several days ago to help her
search for a book. As I entered, the first thing I espied was a very
scratched but decidedly genuine Chippendale chair. "My dear," I ex
claimed, "why do you have such a lovely piece of furniture hidden away
up here?" "llecause it is too marred to be placed any other place," I was
told. "Foolish child," I replied, "dont you know that you can have it
refinlshed to look like new? Down at the SalUglver Shop, 223 North Sec

any piece of furniture to your cosiplcte satisfaction. Of course, it may cost

AFTERNOON FETE
NEW YEAR'S DAY
Numerous Requests Cause a
Repetition of Christmas
Day Event
As a result of the numerous re
quests for a repetition of the dance
at the Penn-Harriß which featured
Christmas afternoon for about 150
Harrisburg young folks, the com
mittee which arranged for the dance
has planned for a similar occasion
fa the same ballroom New Year's
afternoon, between the hours of 3
and 6.30 o'clock.
Cards for the New Year's after
noon dance to be issued at once, will
be extended to those who attended
the Christmas dance, which proved
one of the most enjoyable features
of Christmas day.
The New Year's dance answers the
demand for a pleasant way of spend
ing the afternoon of the holiday.
Many young folks spending the
Christm'as vacation with parents and
friends in the city, also desired that
the qance be repeated, as it will
form the last occasion for many of
those who attended the Christmas
dance to meet once more before they
leave the city for the next school
term.
The committee in charge is com
posed of Miss Dorothy Both well.
Miss Mary Hutman, Reed McCarty
and George Schreinor, Jr.
Due to the brief time remaining for
the completion of arrangements, re
turns are not disired from those
planning to attend, but details have
been completed so admission may be
secured by the presentation of in
vitation cards at the door the after
noon of the dance.
Dr. and Mrs. David J. Hetrick and
son Norman Hetrick, have returned

days with the latter's parents, Mr.

street, Penbrook.
I WAS just wondering a while
ago liow many things irt addition
to shoes one can buy at the
Army and Navy Shoe Store. And,
do you know, when I started to
| enumerate them I was absolutely
amazed. In the first place, comes
hosiery—and the line is certainly
complete. No matter what kind you
may want, from silk to wool, you'll
find it there. Then, too, there are
gloves, belts and numerous little ac
cessories of that sort. In addition,
Army shirts are displayed and a
score of other articles, all equal in
quality to the Army and Navy shoes.
That I need not comment uporr
them, I'm sure, for everybody
I how stubbornly they wear.
IT may seem a wee bit early to
speak of voiles, but I can't re-
I sist the temptation. You see, I
have the best reason in the world
for warding to talk about them.
| And, after all, spring and the dress
; making season will be here before
i we know It. -Already some of the
j loveliest voiles I have ever seen have
I arrived at the French Shop. The
i patterns are beautiful and the qual
j ity exquisitely fine. Personally, I
i can f hink of no better plan than
j making your selection r.-ow, while
| the assortment is large and com
p'cte. A particularly opportune
"me to examine the stock Is this
'\eek while Miss Swope is holding a
little special sa'e of good quality

JERSEY LIQUOR
BILL PREAMBLE
IS COMPLETED
i Measure Will Go Before the
Next Session of the
Legislature
New Brunswick, N. .T.. Dec. 29. —
The preamble of the bill authorizing
the sale of beer and light wines in
New Jersey is now before the pub
lic. State Senator Thomas Brown
win introduce the measure at the
next session of the slute legislature.
He said that the bill itself is not yet
ready for publication.
The preamble sets forth that the
I state of New Jersey has not ratified
the eighteenth amendment, doubts
that it was passed in a constitutional
manner and intends to disregard the
Volstead act and pass an enforce
ment bill which will be supreme
within the limits of the state. Sena
tor Brown said that the theory upon
which Governor-elect Edwards and
his supporters are working is that
the eighteenth amendment gives
equal power ■to Congress, and the
State in the enforcement of prohi
bition and that the congressional en
actment applies only where there is
no state law in effect.

Fritz Kreisler an
. Indefatigable Worker
One of the most Interesting fea
tures about Fritz Kreisler, who is
making a tour of this country and
who is to visit Harrisburg on the
evening of January 5 at Chestnut
Street Auditorium, is his remark
able versatility. Some of us, how
ever, are familiar with "Ampico"
piano records.
Harold Bauer, the great pianist, j
maintains that as great a violinist
as Kreisler is, an absoluetly supreme J
pianist was lost to the world when
he chose the violin as his instru- I
ment. Kreisler's father, a famous j
physician and surgeon of Vienna, j
urged his son to take music seri- |
ously as a career, but at the same
time he has always been convinced
that Fritz had unusual promise in
medicine. As a matter of fact, Fritz
spent a year studying medicine dur
ing his period of storm and stress
when, after astonishing the world as
a prodigy, he became uncertain
whether he wanted to continue as
a musician. Finally, although he
does not talk about it much, he once
had a distinct ambition to become a
painter and, when he was in Paris
studying wij.h Massart, he was also
working at Julien's, the most famous
atelier of its time. There are in this
country several well-known artists
who knew him at this period and,
i while they are not sure that Kreis
ler would have become as great a
painter as he is a musician, they re
member him ns a youth of much
more than ordinary ability arrd tal
ent.
Says Regulation of
Milk Industry Needed
New York, Dee. 29.—State regula
tion of the milk industry on the
ground that it is a public utility of
"infinitely more importance than the
operation of transportation lines." is
among several far-reaching recom
mendations made to Governor Smith
by the Fair Price Milk Committee
which has been investigating the
high cost of milk since September.
The committee is also of the opinion
that the dairy and milk Industry of
the Unitd States should receive the
attention of Congress.
Demands from Europe for manu
factured products or milk have
reached such proportions, the report
points out, that gradually increasing
exports "actually endanger the health
and lives of children by their de
privation of fluid milk."
Larger Soft Coal Board Is
Favored by Ex-Judge Gray
Wilmington, Del., Dec. 29. —The
appointment of a board of three,

Judge George Gray, of Wilming
ton, who was a member of the
i board of seven appointed by Presi
dent Roosevelt to settle the hard
coal strike of 1902.

Undecided as to Whether
Wilson Will Call Meeting
of League Council
By Associated Press
Furl*, Dec. 29.—Informal notice of
the first meeting of the Council of
the League of Nations probably will
be given a day or two after the ex
change of ratifications of the Treaty
of Versailles. Ambassador Wallace
cabled the State Department in Wash
ington to tlils effect after this* morn
ing's meeting of the Supreme Council,
which had the question under consid
eration.
It is still an open question whether
I the formal call for the meeting shall
Ibe issued by President Wilson as
: originally provided for. or whether,
in view of the fact that the United
| States has not ratified the Treaty, the
! call be issued by Premier Clemenccau,
1 the President of the Peace Conference.
This question, as well as the place
| for the meeting of the members of
j the council, probably will be decided
■ to-morrow.
