'Talk on Local Option By Mrs. Jones » Before a large audience of Stevens ...Memorial young people last evening, £Mrs. Mabel C'roniee Jones spoke on the .-temperance question as it relates to "Epworthians, and cited figures and u.faets that have been gleaned from the , of corporations like the j railroad amd other promi mnent business enterprises to bear out i statements. t, Mrs. Jones said, in starting, that it i oisually, if not always, took some great PUBLIC AUCTION Continued All This Week Owing to the fact that a large part of the stock of Watches, Diamonds, Jewelry, Clocks, Silverware was not sold as expected last week, the Sales Will Continue at 2 P.

As an illustration, she cited the full ! page advertisements that appeared in ; all the large newspapers of the British empire at the outbreak of the present ) great war. These were headed "Atten tion!" and went on to say that it was | the request of the government that, during the period throughout which ! the war lasted, every man should be come a total abstainer. Then followed i eight reasons why the government made the request:" First, drimk made a man's eyesight defective; second, it made him less resistant to fatigue; third, it nwtde him more lia'ble to dis | ease infection, and so on throughout | the list—it being the object of the 1 British government to impress upou i the soldiers that were to battle for her that drink would decrease their fight ing efficiency and to just that extent ' lessen the total of the army's efficiency as a fighting machiine. i Reference -was made to the efforts now being put forth, as beiih,; hopefu: ; signs of Pennsylvania's coming re [ generation, and Mrs. Jones urged every loyal Bpworthian to put forth his or her (best effort to bring to pass such legislation as would put our fair State on an equal plaine with those which have tried prohibition and found it to be conducive to higher moraJity and cleaner living on the part of the individual and to greater efficiency and prosperity in business and political circles.

Again," the song revue to be present ed by the Carlisle Elks theatrical as sociation, laughingly but sincerely de clare that there is really no basis for this itory. The feminine members of the party, wives of the male contingent, firmly decline to be interviewed on the sub ject. They just want to go along be cause they're crazy to see the show, they say. Be all this as it may, somehow, some where, a rumor has got abroad to the effect that a newspaper picture of one of the "pretty participants''' in the play is directly responsible for the sudden interest evinced by the femi nine part of to-night's party. An Elk took a paper home the other evening, so the story runs, and grinned so delightedly at the fetchingly gown ed "girl" that smiled up at him from the printed page, that naturally Mrs. Elk wanted to know the whys and wherefores. Full and detailed expla nation as to whom the "girl" really was fell a trifle flat. The very evening 'tis said, there was considerable phon ing, the house of the dubious Elk in question, being a sort of central sta tion as it were. Just this much of one of the wire conversations may or may not throw some light on the subject; it was only one side of the talking at that: " —But May, dear, John eays they are just men." " —Ob, heavens, you don't think that do you " " —True, she—er— was good look ing I guess, although I never did care for that kiind of a coiffure. But oh dear, I can hardly think such a thing of John." " —Yes-es, I guess so. If the Test of you promise to go. But really May 1 haven't a thing to wear." " —lndeed! Just let him dare to re fuse to take me. Good-bye, I 'll see you at the station Monday. Good-bye! " So the members of the Harrisburg Dlks social committee under whose auspices "They're At It Agaiu," is to be presented at the Majestic here Fri day and Saturday, emphatically de clare that they're only going to Car lisle to pass on the show, and that they are taking their wives along for a lit tle trip.
