S OCIAL and PERSONAL
INAUGURAL RECEPTION WILL
BE HELD J THE CAPITOL
This Will Be a Departure From the
Usual Custom Bus Is Same Flan As
For Tener Ceremonial—Brumbaugh
to Pass Week-ends in Philadelphia
From what as said by Governor-elect
Brumbaugh in Philadelphia, regarding
his occupancy of the Executive Man
sion in llarrisburg, it is gathered that
the new Governor will pursue the course
followed by Governor Stuart in his
stay in llarrisburg.
It was Governor Stuart's custom to
spend the forepart of each week in Har
risburg and then spend the week-end
in Philadelphia, and it was very sel
dom that he was here aifter Friday, re
turning on Mon'day afternoon.
Dr. Brumbaugh said in Philadelphia
yesterday that during the session of the
Legislature he plans to spend week
ends generally in Harrisburg, but at
other tames he hopes to be frequently
in Philadelphia to which city, lie said,
he is much attached through his friend
ships, his personal interests in the
schools and has other activities.
It will be remembered that Hover
nor Stuart's private interests called
him frequently to Philadelphia. and it
was seldom that the Executive Mansion
was open during the week-ends. The
ta-t that Governor-elect Brunvbaugh's
wife died quite recently will, of course,
forbid any social functions at the man
sion outside of those of a purely of
ficial character, such as entertainments
for the retiring officers of the Legis
lature and dinners to the members of
the Supreme and Superior Courts.
The inaugural reception will be held
in the capital next Tuesday evening,
ani not :ir the. Executive Mansion, as
has been the custom for years except on
occasion of the Tener inauguration. The
mansion does not lend itself well to
t'ormaJ receptions, the hallways not be
ing so constructed as to permit of
rapid ingress and egress, but at the I
capital it will be an easy matter to
keep-the great crowd moving, especial
ly as fche»inaugural committee will
have the assistance of the State Police
to ait in the capacity of ushers.
Story Tellers' League to Meet
The first meeting of the vear of the
Story Tellers' League will be held this

At a meeting of the directors of the

decided that the outdoor department
should continue the home garden work
this year. The work will be under the
direction of Mrs. Edwin S. Herman,

testants this year will be still greater.

and the children having the best-kept
flower gardens will receive prizes in the
early fall.

IT RUINS HAIR TO
WASH IT WITH SOAP
Soap should be used very sparing- j
ly. if at all, if you want to keep your
hair looking its best. , Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain too
much alkali. This dries the scalp, j
makes the hair brittle, and ruins it;.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsiticd eoeoanut oil '
(which is pure and greaseless,) is 1
cheaper and better than soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspnonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with 1
water and rub it tn. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsifiod eoeoanut oil
at any pharmacy, «nd a few ounces
will supply every member of the
| faintly for months.
SIR DOUGLAS MAWSON'S
LECTURE PREARRANGED
Tamous Arctic Explorer and Knight of
Old England, Will Tell of His Ex
periences at the Majestic Theatre
February 10
February 1 0 'Harrisburg will get its
first opportunity to see and hear a real
live knight of old Englaud when Sir
Douglas Mawson, t'he famous Aus
tralian scientist and Anarctie explorer,
speaks in the Majestic as t'he guest of
the Natural 'History Society of this
■city. Plans have been completed by
cable for the lecture.
The noted traveler is expected to ar
rive from England before the 15th of
this month. Before coining to Harris
burg he will address the National
Geographic Society at Washington and
several other notable gatherings.
Sir Douglas Mawson's appearance
here will offer the home folks their
tirst opportunity to see a real, live
knigiht of old England. He will reach
Harrisburg late on the evening of the
10th or early on the morning of the
1 lth so that he may personally super
intend the unloading of the many feet
of moving picture and other stereop
ticon films.
From out of the darkness of the
South polar world Sir Douglas will
give 'Harris>brug a glimpse for an hour
or so of the dreadful blackness of the
silent icy wastes, the blinding snow
storms, the yakwning erevases and a
picture of two of a solitary traveler,
head bowed against the storm, plodding
wearily, sihakily along beside a single
dog—all his own personal experiences.
And in many instances the story will 'be
illustrated with what Str Ernest
Shackleton, the Royal naval Anarctie
explorer, has termed "the greatest col
lection of pictures of the South polar
world that were ever taken."
Sir Douglas (Mawson will lecture here
under the direction of the Natural So
ciety as did Captain Aniundson, the
discoverer of the South pole. The Aus
tralian, as is generally kuown, went
out to the black wastes of the land be
yond the sun—not to endeavor to Jo
eate the pole or definitely to establish
what had been done by his predecessors
but to collect what evidence he could
that would be o fvalue to Australia
from meterolognnl and otherwise scien
tifia viewpoints. He will tell with pic
tures and maps of the wonderful trip
for hundreds ot miles across the ice
fields, alone.
SERVIA NOT SATISFIED WITH
OUTLET TO ADRIATIC SEA
Rome, Jan. 11, 10.45 P. M.—('on
trary statements that have appeared iu
the newspapers of London, Paris and
Berlin that an understanding has prac
tically been reached about a Servian
outlet to the Adriatic sea, it is stated
in Servian official quarters here that
this will not now satisfy Servia.
It is declared thai such a concession
would have been satisfactory two years
ago, when it was discussed at the
London conference, but now, after a
war in which her life and independence
were risked, Servia could not accept a
port or a strip of coast. What she
now claims, it, is staled, are the Servian
regions possessed by Austria, including
Bosnia, Herzegovina and Dalntatia,
which must be assigned to her through
the principle of nationality.

(Special to the Star-lndciiendeut. >
Philadelphia, .laji. 12.—Covernor
elect Brumbaugh stated yesterday that
he is giviny t*he consideration of ap
pointments the sidetrack for the pres
ent and is devoting practically his en
tire attention to the preparation of his
inauguration message.
"1 consider my message the most ini
[K>rtant matter before me at this time,"
he declared. The Governor-elect plans
to complete his address bv Thursday,
then turn to the question of patronage
for the next few days, leave for Har
risibuig next .Monday afternoon and
take the oath of office, as provided by
la.w, on Tuesday.
The inaugural message of the Gov
ernor-elect, as his first State paper, is
expected to outline "constructive"
suggestions l'or the carrying out of his
campaign pledges. In a recent address
Dr. Brumbaugh declared that he wished
to show the people that an educator-
Governor could be a practical executive
and his intimates say, the chief purpose
of his address will be to point out
"sane" methods for improving condi
tions. The Oovernor-eleet made a de
tailed study of Pennsylvania finances as
a member of the commissions which
prepared three, school codes, and is ex
pected to submit a number of pertinent
suggestions for better use of State
funds and resources. It is well under- ;
stoo I that the Governor-elect will en
deavor to have large amounts set aside j
for the improvement of the State high
ways, ami it is expected that a large

outlining plans to finance the whole
sale program of work under considera- i
tion in this direction.
The Funds for Charities
The message is also expected to deal
In a. practical manner with the poor
business nrethods in vogue for many
years in the distribution of State funds
for charitable purposes and to suggest
a more modern system for handling
these appropriations. It is understood'
that he will insist upon greater State!
supervision than ever before over the
expenditure of these funds.
Dr. Brumbaugh is likewise expected 1
to suggest a practical plan for a work-1
men's compensation law to meet the
requirements of its chief advocates!
and to likewise stand the test of the j
courts. The Organization leaders are i
prepared to pass a workmen's compen
sation law, but have so far been un- j
able to agree upon its phraseology.!
Dr. Brumbaugh has been giving close
study to this subject of legislation and t
his friends state that he has hit upon I
a plan to be outlined in his message
for the solution of this question, so;
far at least as the Legislature is ran -
eerned. It is understood that ho will 1
again adhere to his well-known atti-,
tude in favor of local option legisla
tion and will likewise insist upon a
drastic child labor law.
No Sight Upon the Cabinet
While perfectly frank in discussing j
his plans for the future, Dr. Brum-!
baugh yesterday had no information
to give concerning the personnel of his;

The Price Of
A Good Piano
The price of a good piano de
pends, like anything else you buy,
upon the quality. Good quality
is never sold at a ridiculous figure
whether the article is a piano or
any other merchandise.
The quality of a piano cannot lie seen from the
outside. No matter how heautfrill the case, it,
is but the covering for the essential parts of the
instruments. The tone production and its
ability to withstand strain, are two of the qual
ities that lie inside.
All the more reason why the piano you put
into your home should be one which is nation
ally known and endorsed by the world's well
known musicians.
Such are the pianos sold by this store.

LADIESi DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Use Grand
mother's Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and Nobody Will Know
The use of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and abundant. Whenever
her hair fell out of took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
ple mixture was applied with wonder
ful effect.
But brewing at. home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a 50-eent bottle of
"NVyeth s Sage and Sulphur Compound,"
you will get this famous old reeipa
which can be depended upon to restore
natural color and beauty to the hair and
is splendid for dandruff, dry, feverish,
itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist sa.vs
it darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has becrt
applied. You simply dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one strand at
a time. By morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application
or two it becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, and abundant.—Adv.

His conversation indicated also thlit
he had made few selections at the most
at present and that he would wa:(j
until he took formal possession of liis
office before arriving at general con

Owing to Dr. Brumbaugh's desire tq
devote his attention to the preparation
of his message, the conference planned
for yesterday with Speaker Ambler foi
the consideration of the House com*
mittee was postponed until later in the
week. For the sarnie reason, the legis
lative committee appointed to consult
with the Governor-elect upon his pro
gram is not expected to formally call
upon Dr. Rrunvbnugli until the tag-end
of the week. Despite the fact that tiiese
more important conferences went over
for the time, the private offices of tlia
prospective executive were thronged all
day with a regiment 0 1 !' men only :oo
