BE CAREFUL, MR. BRYAN!
The Baldhead Club of America is going to hold
its animal banquet in Winsted, Conn., on Thursday
of next week, and William Jennings Bryan, Sec
retary of State, has been invited to be the guest
of honor.
Whether Mr. Bryan is a member of the club is
not made clear in the formal and dignified invita
tion which announces that "unencumbered domes
will reflect back the glare and glimmer of the elec
tric lights and throw upon the ceiling of the ban
quet hall a hundred and fifty glittering reflections
to dance and dazzle in a way that will put your eye
out."
. Even if Mr. Bryan is not a member of the club
he undoubtedly is qualified for membership so far as
having an unencumbered dome is concerned; and,
we believe, lie also is a good enough sport to risk
having his eye put out, but there is another thing
lie must consider.
Whether Mr. Bryan has accepted the invitation
was not told in the dispatches printed in the news
papers yesterday, but if he still is holding it under
advisement, it might be wise for the distinguished
Cabinet member to consider well a few not very
carefully comealed hints conveyed between the
lines. For instance, to quote further from the
dispatch: '-'Fearing the change of climate may
affect baldheads coming from other states and not
*ecliinated to the hair-killing weather here, J. Mar
tin Sauter, who runs the hotel, has appealed for the
use of 201) night caps for one night only."
Baldheaded men in Connecticut are not ordinar
ily given to holding banquets without "night caps''
or indeed without other "caps" before the "night
caps." and it is rather strongly indicated that the
dinner next Thursday will not be lacking in "caps"
of one kind or another.
If, therefore, the Secretary of State desires to
avoid a dinner that is not to be run strictly along
the lines of some of the principles he has frequently
advocated with vigor, he will accept a word of
timely advice in the kindly spirit in which it is
tendered, and ascertain, before accepting that invi
tation, whether those "night caps" are to be drunk
in grape juice.
THE SMALL BOY AND THE FRUIT TREE
The average small boy does not regard fruit on
a tree as private property. His conception of an
orchard seems to be that it is a place where he can
help himself to all the fruit he can get, as long as
' he nominal owner does not intrude on the scene
and discourteously demand his departure. He takes
great delight in invading a fruit orchard, does not
consider the fruit'lie gets as stolen goods, so thor
oughly convinced is he that he has a rightful share
in all things that grow.
During the present fruit season there has doubt
less been the usual stealing of fruit, providing
pleasure for the thieves and annoyance for the
owners. I lie temptation is great and human nature,
in its weaker forms, cannot resist it. Boys who
would not have the nerve to take apples from a
fruit stand on a city street do not lack courage to
go into an apple orchard in the country and help
themselves. They find what they think is an ele
ment of sport in the latter procedure.
Stealing fruit is not true sport in any circum
stances. The despoiler of an orchard is a sneak,
and no sneak is a good sport. There is an element
of chance in attempting to make a haul from an
orchard, and this feature has its attractions. True
HABRISBURQ STAR-INDEPENDENT, SATURDAY EVENING. OCTOBER 24, 1914.
sport has no place, however, iii the invasion of un
orchard.
It is strange how a boy's ideas of property
values differ. If he has a treasured collection of
marbles, for instance, and another boy makes away
with one of them by a thievish method, he feels as
though he-could overturn the world to recover his
property and punish the culprit. On the other hand,
he may regard merely as sport a juvenile expedi
tion into a farmer's apple orchard or an amateur
agriculturist's garden. He is nut consistent, (o say
the least.
Boys are not the •only fruit stealers, but are
merely the most nearly innocent ones, because they
are nol aware of the seriousness of the offense
which they call fun. Men often go about stealing
fruit, and vegetables with deliberate intent, know
ing very well that they are confiscating property
to which they have no legal right just as though
J they were looting hanks.
, There are times, to be sure, when farmers have
| an overabundance of fruit, and when the bounties
of nature would only be wasted if they were not
taken from the trees. In such cases, fruit can be
legitimately obtained for the asking. In Missouri
the plan has been suggested of lining the state high
! ways with fruit trees, thus giving fruit-seekers free
access to trees not on private property. The plan
might he a good one in actual practice. As long
as fruit trees bear their products in private orch
ards, however, no other persons than the proprie
tors have any right to appropriate the fruit.
Tlie season for straw votes is here.
And still they haven't found the Farnsworth Cup!
Again the greatest battle of the war is being fought.
Perhaps those Zeppelin airships can be appropriately de
| scribed as 'force bags."
Both the parties are parading now, but only one will be
marching after November 3.
The voters are going to try to make it unanimous for
Judge Kunkel in Dauphin county.
It will be interesting to note how l)r. Stough will be
able to make "non-partisan" attacks on politicians.
It remains to be seen whether political "wind bags"
which have been heard from in many parts of the State
are any more effective,than non-political "force bags."

First Tranrcontlnental Road
Fifty years ago, in the latter part of
October, 1884, the first link in a trails
■continental railroad was completed,
from Sacramento, California, into the
foothills of the Sierra Nevada moun
tains. T. 11. Judah, a civil engineer, aft
er threading the mountains for months
and pleading in vain with capitalists to
back him met 'by chance at. Sacramento
one day four small merchants—Collis
'P. Huntington, belaud Stanford, 'Mark
Hopkins and Charles Crocker. Ou't of
t!hat incidental meeting grow the organ
isation of the Central Pacific railway.
Judah died before his project was wetl
under way, but the other four men, witlh
a capital then of only a few thousand
dollars and a few inconspicuous associ
ates, succeeded in building to the foot
hills of the mountains in the fall of
'64. By 1867 the Sierras were sur
mounted largely 'by the labor of Chinese
coolies brought by the shipload from
China, and in 1869 tho road was joined
to the Union Pacific at Promontory
Point, Utah. The first transcontinental
railroad was then an accomplished fact,
and Stanford, Huntington, Hopkins and
Crocker ibuilt adjoining mansions in the
most aristocratic part of San Francisco,
shortly to 'become millionaires many
times over.

Nine Railroads Span America
To-day there are nine railroad lines
in North America known as transcon
tinental. Tho latest is the Grand Trunk
Pacific, of Canada, known as "The
Farthest NortJi Line," which is nearly
'completed. Without counting the east
ern connections, tho lines now operat
ing through to the Pacific coast have
an aggregate main-line trackage of over
30,000 miles, over whie'h some 200
through (.aseengcr traius are constant
ly in motion. "The Farthest North
Line" extends from 'Halifax on the At
lantic to Prince Rupert, only a few
miles below the southern • point of
Alaska.
Through Snotv and Ice
•Miuch of the line is a.bove the 52d
degree, and traverses a land locked in
snow and ice through long winters. The
road has been over ten years in build
ing. Three years were devoted to search
for a low summit, the engineers finally
falling upon Yellow Head Pass, with
an altitude of 11,712 feet, as against 5,
691 feet which -Judah accepted as
practicable in the Sierra Nevadas. The
original transcontinental line and many
other western roads have 'been practi
cally rebuilt on the mountain divisions
in recent years to conform with the
present policy <Sf railroad building—
avoiding high grades and sharp curves,
even at the expense of long tunnels and
enormous cuts.
Mr. Fow's Legal Knowledge
John H. Fow, Philadelphia attorney
who was in Harrisburg yesterday argu
ing the nomination case for the Phila
delphia Democratic City Committee,
was for years a member of the Legisla
ture, representing a Republican district
in that city, although he is a Democrat
of the deepest dye. Mr. Fow's popular
ity always pulled him through. He was
the admittedly best informed lawyer on
constitutional law in the Legislature of
his time, and when :he opposed a bill
on the ground of its unconstitutionality
his argument generally prevailed and
the bill fell. And that was in a Repub
lican Legislature. Former (iovernor
Penny packer, when in oflice, was wont
to say that Fow was the best consti
tutional lawyer in the State, and it. was
well known that Governor Pennypacker
on more than one occasion when he was
in dou'bt concerning the, constitution
ality of a bill sent to him called in iMr.
I*ow and was guitled by his opinion.
Fow as a "Cut-up"
Former Representative Fow was the
biggest "cirt-up" in the- Legislature,
and whenever anything particularly
f unny or noisy was sprung in fhe House,
Fow was sure to be at the back of it.
He occupied a seat in the "Bloody
Angle," to the left of the Speaker, aud
it was his custom when routine mat
ters grew dull to arise in his seat and
begin an argument on the bill before
tho House, winding up with "and this
would have been the position of our
great and illustrious George Washing
ton." This was the signal for some one
in the "Bloody Angle" to ask in a
loud voice: "Who was George Wash
ington!" and immediately the occu
pants of the "Angle" would declare
very solemnly and vociferously, "First
in war, first in peace and first in t)he
hearts of his couutrymen," at the same
time beating a tattoo on their desks
with their fists. It always broke up
the monotony of 'House routine, and
when he had accomplished his object
Fow sat down, smiling all over his
'broad face. He has not been active as
a legislator for years, but he is still
quoted as tho most famous noise-maker
that ever sat in the Pennsylvania
House.
"That lady you were with on the car
is a smoker, isn't sihe?"
" Why do you ask such a questiont"
"I noticed you helping her to

TWO ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR
PRIZES FOR REST PHOTOS
Photographs of Two Largest Trass in
U. S. Wanted by the American
Genetic Association—All Cone-
Bearing Trees Are Excluded
Washington, Oct. 24. —Foresters of
the United States are interested in the
announcement recently made by the
American Genetic Association that two
prizes of SIOO each have been offered
for two photographs—oue of the larg
est tree of a nut-bearing variety in
the United States, and one of the larg
est broad-leaf tree which docs not bear
edible seeds. In the first class, for ex
ample, nre included trees such as chest
nut, oak, walnut, butternut and pecan;
and in the second, trees such as elm,
birch, maple, cottonwood and tulip pop
lar. No photographs of cone-bearing
trees are wanted, since it is definitely
known that the California big trees
have no rivals among conifers. At a
later time tho association may take up
the same question as between the vari
ous kinds of conifers, —as pines,
spruces, firs, cedars and cypresses.
The purpose of the competition, as
stated by the association, is to find
out in what regions the native trees
attain their largest growth, and under
what conditions they thrive best. When
these large trees are located and the
measurements authenticated, the associ
ation hopes that it may be possible to
secure seeds, cuttings, or grafting wood
from thrifty trees in the region where
they grow, to sec whether liner speci
mens may be propagated in other parts
of the country. It is \)oped in this man
ner to get some particularly choice
strains of native trees established in
regions where good specimens are not
now found.
The Influence of Heredity
It is assumed by the association that
seed from the region where the largest
trees grow ought to produce larger ami
stronger trees than front regions where
oulv small trees are found. By finding
out where the large trees are and then
planting seeds from them in other loca
tions, the association hopes to demon
strate the practical value to horticul
ture and forestry of the laws of
heredity. Now that reforestation is be
coming a pressing problem, the ques
tion of seed trees which will produce
particularly good is natural
ly coming to the fore.
Other influences, of course, will have
a bearing on the subject, and the re
sults of the investigation may help to |
settle the question as to whether trees
can be acclimatized. Even if they can
not be, there may be cases where trees
in a new environment may make bet-1
ter growth than the best in their native
range. This is said to be true of cer
tain of the Australian eucalypts, audi
of the Monterey pine which does not |
amount, to much in its native location j
in California but. has proved of great!
value in New Zealand.
The federal forest service has con !
ducted some studies along this line an if |
has discovered, for example, that the j
Douglas fir of the Rocky Mountains!
and the Douglas fir of the Pacific ('oast,!
while the same species, have different
characteristics and will produce trees:
like the parent stock, modified some-!
what, however, by environment. For
example, if the two forms nre planted
together, during the earlier period of
its life at least the Pacific Coast form
will make a larger and stronger growth !
than the Rocky .Mountain tree, provided
it is not affected by adverse local con !
ditions.
Several other questions, such as the!
climatic requirements of trees grown in
different localities, will, of course, en-1
ter into the final solution of the prob- j
lem. It has been found in Germany, j
for example, that the Pacific Coast I
form of Douglas fir is not as hardy as
the Rocky Mountain form', which has to
endure in its native habitat severe ex-1
tremes of temperature, anil German
foresters have been working to discov-1
er a strain of Douglas fir which will
combine, as far as possible, tho hardi
ness of the Rotkv Mountain form and !
the large size of the Pacific. Coast form, j
Some authorities go so far as to say'
that even the ingenuity and persever-!
ance of man are unable to induce trees |
to change their habits far enough to |
adopt a country not closely like their
native habitat.
This fastidiousness in the habits of
trees has its good and its bad sides,
they say. It absolutely limits the for
ester's choice of trees to grow in a
given region. But, on the other hand,
there is practical certainty of results.
If beech or spruce thrives where the
average warmth and moisture of the
growing season from year to year
ranges between certain degrees, then
wherever else the same average is
found, in the northern hemisphere at
least, the forester may plant beech or
spruce, whether or not they arc already
there, with confidence that they will
flourish.
The announced purpose of the Gene
tic Association is to bring about the
dissemination of seed or stock of the
best specimens, when found, to dem
onstrate, if possible, the value of hered
ity in tree growing. The contest for
the SIOO photographs is announced to
end on July 1, 1915, on which date,
says the secretary of the Genetic As
sociation'in Washington, tho offer will
terminate.

pose of which will be to promote col
lege spirit ami make the boys feel that
they are an actual part of the univer
sity. The organization will go by the
name of Harrisburg Extension Branch
of the Wharton School Association.
The Wharton sehool students lit
Philadelphia have their own athletic
and debating teams, and enter into the
full spirit of university life. It is be
lieved that an organization in this city,
formed along the same plans as those
on which Philadelphia's association of
Wharton school students is bc.:ed, will
give the Harrisburg students »he uni
versity spirit which they have uot as
vet felt.
The local students will meet next
week to act on a constitution, and take
tho first steps to form a class organiza
tion. L«t.er there will be committees
appointed on athletics, on songs, on
yells, on pins, and on everything else
that enters largely into university ac
tivities. The students in this city are
receiving the same instruction as are
the Philadelphia students in the Whar
ton school, and it is intended that they
shall have the »am e interest in the uni
versity.
In order that more interest in tho
Harrisburg extension school may be
aroused, teams have been appointed to

V THE COLLECTION OF CHECKS Y
No business is too small not to find a check
ing account indispensable. In the matter of
checks which are generally a part of the day's
or week's receipts, to coilect them personally
from the different banks would require much
time, some expense and considerable inconven
ience.
With an account at a bank the checks are
simply endorsed, deposited with the cash and
the bank does the collecting. The quicker such
collections are made the better it is for the
customer. Our facilities for attending to such
matters promptly makes our service especially
valuable.
