MILITARY MESSAGES
Some That Were Made Famous By
Their Pith and Brevity
Of famous military messages there
arc scores, beginning with the never
j to be forgotten "Veni, vidi, vici" of
i Caesar and that equally fain wis dis
| patch of Commodore Perry, "We have
met the enemy and they arc ours,' but
r both were hasten for brevity bv Gen
oral Sir Robert Boyd, who while gov
!or nor of Gibraltar, being in need of
'beaf for his troops wrote to the agent
in England this laeonic dispatch:
"Browne, beef, Boyd," Browne sent
the stores with the reply, "Boyd, beeil',
Bro wne.''
And this in turn recalls the story of
Peter de'Dieux. the celebrated fighting
bishop o!' Beauvals, w'ho, being taken
in arras by Richard (Joeur dc Lion, was
imprisoned and fettered. Pope Celes
tine 111, renionsrtra<ted in behalf of the
prelate, and in reply the king sent the
bishop's helmet and armor to Rome
with this neat dispatch taken from
Genesis xxxvii, 32: "Know now
whether it be thy son's coat or no.' 1
The po(>e declined further intercession
and replied that the cont the king had
sent did not belong to a son of the
olmrch, but of the camp, and the pris
oner, therefore, was at Richard's
mercy.—Detroit Free Press.
Every Woman a Nurse
Every woman, or at least almost
every woman, has. at one time <★ an
other or her life, charge of the personal
health of somebody, whether Child or
invalid—in other words, every woman
is a nurse. Every day sanitary knowl
edge or the knowledge of nursing, or,
in other words, of how to put the con
stitution in such a state as that it will
have no disease or that it can recover
ifrowi disease, takes a higher place. It
is recognized as the knowledge w"hich
every one ought to have—-distinct
from medical knowledge, which only a
profession can have.
If, then, every woman must at some
time or other in her life .become a
nurse—namely, have charge of some
body 's health—how immense and how
valuable would 'be the product oif her
united experience if every woman
woirld think how to nurse.—Florence
Nightingale.
Deserved a Reward
1 ' Daughter, I saw you last night."
"Yes, ma."
"What induced fou to give that
young man a kiss?"
"Well, lie had listened to my sing
ing patiently for an hour."—Kansas

CITY'S CHRISTMAS TREE
WILL REMAIN A WEEK
It WUI fie Lighted Each Evening Un
til and Including New Year's—
Charities Take G«od Cars of the
Poor—Postoffice Force Praised
A Christmas celebration as complete
as any ever held in Harrisburg marked
the holiday yesterday, but the Yuletide
festivities did not end. It will take a
week or more to get back to normal ex
istence. The city's big tree at Front
and Market streets will be lighted each
night up to and including New Year's
night. The platform from which the
speeches were made on Christmas Eve
will be torn away but the tree will re
main.
Mayor Royal officially conveyed the
greeting of the season to a crowd
that assembled at the tree on Thursday
evening. The crowd shouted back:
"Same to You!" and the ceremony
was on. The great choir rendered
hymns and Christmas carols and there
were selections by the Commonwealth
band, which escorted the singers from
Market Square to the tree. Pictures
from the life of Christ were flashed on
a big screen before the close of the
ceremony. Then the crowd melted
away to their homes for further cele
bration.
So well had the charitable organiza
tions provided for the city's poor that
there were few heartaches. Everybody,
so far as the officers of the Associ
ated Charities could learn, was taken
care of. Food and clothing was given
by many organizations aud individuals.
The Fraternal Order of Moose gave
Christmas dinners to many at. their
home, Third and Boas streets, and
many baskets of food were delivered.
Baskets of food were given also by the
Salvation Army and the American Res
cue Workers. At the home of the
Benevolent Protective Order of Elks,
between the hours of 9 and 2 to-day,
candy, nuts and toys were' given to
many children.
Tn all the charitable institutions in
the city there were Christmas trees and
Christmas greens for decorations.
Among these surroundings appropriate
ceremonies were held. There were
presents for the children iu the-.e homes
and in the liospitals. A full turkey
dinner was served at the county alms
house. Presents were given ta the in
mates and a vaudeville show enter
tained them on Thursday. A sauer
kraut dinner was served at the county
jail.
Owing to the efficient work at the
po.-toffice and in the parcel post de
partment there were no disappointments
due to delayed packages sent through
the mails. Although the business in
the parcel post department increased
almost 100 per cent, there was no un
due crowding and by 4 o'clock on
Christmas afternoon the last parcels
were loaded in the wagons for local
delivery. Postmaster Frank C. Sites
praises the loyalty which the employe*
showed despite their increased labors.
There was an increase of but thirty
clerks and carriers to handle the rush.

picture films ever shdwn iu tihis coun
