PRESERVATION OF LIVES
Executive Committee of the Pennsyl- j
vania Conservation Association
Holds Important Meeting
At a meeting of the executive com
mittee of the Pennsylvania C'onserva-1
tion Association, it was decided to ap- j
point a committee consisting of Presi- j
demt Farquhar. Secretary Kehr, I)r. j
Henry S. Drinker and I. C. Williams to i
confer with the various State Depart-!
ments with the view of supplementing i
their efforts in securing for the State
of Pennsylvania" the necessary legisla
tion to better conserve the lives of its
peo'ple and its natural resources, which
are rapidly diminishing. The necessity
for legislation preventing the pollution
of the streams and forest fires were
included in tiie many phases of the sub
ject discussed. Among the features sug
gested in the matter of preventing
stream pollution, it was suggested that
many of the chemicals which are dump
ed into the streams from the many in
dustries located along the streams of
the State might lvo converted into
economic products of eons'#'era : ble com
mercial value, ft was also stated that
sufficient funds have not been provided
for the State Department of Forestry
with which to properly patrol, and thus
prevent the enormous waste incident to
the great tires during the dry season.
A suggestion was made that millions
of dollars could be saved for the State
if sufficient funds were provided to es
tablish adequate patrol. Tele hone serv
ice and observation towers in eai-h
of the counties, where there is timber
land, whether it be owned by the State
or bv private individuals. The State
Forestry Department has worked out an
efficient plan which was suggested to
the Legislature ton years ago, which
has been adopted ! bv the States which
are now regarded as the foremost States
in the matter of forestry fire preven
tion. rt is hoped that the forthcoming
j Legislature will see the wisdom of al
, lowing sufficient appropriation with
1 which to install the fire fighting plans
w'hich the Forestry Department has
originated.
In view of the probability of an
other 'bill being presented to the forth
coming Legislature advocating the pur
chase of the Cook tract, Virgin white
j pine timber land, situated in Forest,
j Jefferson and Clarion counties, reputed
I to be the only original piece of white
-;ine timber east of the Mississippi
and no/th of the Ma.>on and Dixon line.
The committee decided to advocate its
purchase by the State as a State |>ark,
! or natural recreation grounds as groat
in many respects as the Yellow Stone
j or Yosemite National Parks located in
I the western part of the United States.
| IHenry W. Shoemaker. W. H. HilKard

"The Yellow Ticket'*
.Michael Morton, the author of "The [
Yellow Ticket,' which comes to the
Majestic this afternoon and evening,
is a playwright of international fame.
Among his best known works may lie
mentioned "Resurrection." in which
Blanche Walsh starred with great suc
cess for several seasons, and which
was written in collaboration with
Henri Bataille: "My Wife" and "The
Runaway"—both of these adaptations
front the French which were made by
Mr. Morton for Miss ftillie Burke: "A
Rich Man's Son." in which W. H.
Crane, the comedian, starred success
fully. and "Colonel Newcomb," a
dramatization made from Thnckery's
novel. "The Newcombs." and which
was written originally for Sol Smith
Russell, but in which that comedian
was not seen, owing to the fact that
his health broke down at that time.
The manuscript was found in the pos-
M>ssion of Sol Smith Russell at the
time of his death and was afterward
used by Williard. the English actor,
for a season., it has never been seen
in New York and it is possible that
Sir Herbert Beerhohm Tree will re
vise the play shortly for production in
America, appearing himself in the role
of "Colonel Newcomb." Michael Mor
ton is a brother of Mrs. Martha Mor
ton Cronheim, who is well known as
an American playwright. adv. ***
"The Dummv"
"The Dummy." with the famous
New York cast that has been playing
at the Hudson Theatre since last sea
son. is coining to the Majestic Tues
day evening fresh from its record run
on the Great White Way.
The instantaneous success of "The
Dummy" on Its opening night, the en
thusiastic welcome given it by every
New York critic, and the wholesale
cordiality with which the play-goers
i have flocked to it, month after month.
| all mean that this little play is the
kind of entertainment that can be
| depended on to delight everybody. It
j is a popular laugh-maker, whose fun
cannot be resisted, a detective comedy
| in which there is "something doing"
every minute, and a "heart interest"
| play that gets right down to the hu
! man side of life and is lovable all
| through. When Harvey O'Higgins
i i:n«l Harriet Ford, authors of "The
| Arg.vle Case." wrote "The Dummy."
I they invented "something different" in
the play world whose novelty has
made it the most talked of play of re
cent years. adv. ***
Watson's Orientals

Friday, matinee and night, will be
! Beef Trust Billy Watson's Orientals,
an expensive organization, noted for
j the singer of its offerings and beauty

twenty dainty little misses in the

tumes, are said to be irresistible. The
scenery and trappings and modern

diving and has a tank and all the ap

Guests at College
Ohambersburg, Nov. 28.—T0 the two
younger classes this year fell the right
to play hockey on Thanksgiving Day
for the championship cup. In the un
derclass games the Freshmen won from
the Sophomores by a score of 9-5. It
is a coincidence that each of these
classes in the contest with its sister
class was able to make the number of
goals it made in the underclass game.
The Freshman team scifred 9 against
the Juniors' 2 and the Sophomores won
from the Seniors 5-3. The Thanksgiv
ing game was, therefore, a particularly
earnest one: each team was determined
to be the successful holder of the cup.
The class of 1917 won from the class
of 191S by a score of 9-3.
The Thanksgiving service in the
chapel was conducted by the Rev. Cur
tis O. Bosserman, of Shippensburg.

lege and an unusually large number of
guests, including many alumnae of the
college, assembled in the college dining
room for the Thanksgiving dinner. Dr.
Anna McKeag was toast mistress. Miss
Leah Gcist, 1913, of Wayneslboro, re
sponded for the alumnae; Dr. Scott, of
the history department, responded to
the toast. "Our National Holiday;"
Miss Gertrude Frank, of Pittsburgh, as
president of student government, spoke
on "The Student Body," anil Dr.

music, spoko on ' 'The College and Its
Ideals.''
In the evening the Senior class pre
sented to the class of 1917 its play,
"The Girls of '76." The meftvberg of
the cast worked well into the spirit of
the time and much credit is due to the
stage manager, Flossie Dietrich, of Mt.

lent by her settings. The cast was:
