old buggy. A policeman yelled at
him: Hi, there, look out! the fire de-

Turning in by the curb the farmer
watched the hose cart, salvage wagon

out into the street again and drove
on. Barely had he started when the

''The Three Sirens" at 2 o'clock, and

DIR. Lyter Urges Big Slough Gift
At the service last night the Rev.
]. A. Lyter, of the Derry Street United
Brethren Church, spoke briefly con-
cerning the remuneration of the
Slough party. He said that gener-
osity is one of the Christian virtues
and that a stingy Christian is an
anomaly. He thought the exception
ally faithful preaching of Dr. Slough
and his great efforts to uplift the city
are deserving of a generous response
tomorrow, 'in the name of fair play
toward one who has trusted in the
good will and honor of the local
workers"
Owing to the remonstrances of the
members of the Slough party, who
feared that the Harrisburgers would
get cold feet marching through the
streets and standing in Market Square
at IL o'clock, the big demonstration
scheduled for last night at the close
of the tabernacle service was called
off.
Rejection Means Murder, He Says
Dr. Slough preached on the text
"And we would not He showed how
of evil oppose the work of evangelism
just as the people did in the time of
Christ.
N'You have turned your backs on
the things of God and declared you
would not" he said, "and you have
done so not because of lack of un-
derstanding but because of lack OF
willingness to believe. You have come
close to the objectionable sin. You
are not Christians because you would
not hit the trail"
'"The rejection of Christ spells moth
ing less than murder, it means muir
der of good motives and impulses, OF
conscience" In speaking of the muir
der of the messengers of Christ and
the prophets he declared that every
man who breaches to-day puts HIM
self in the same jeopardy.
'TWhy Do Thousands Hate Me?"
'sThe most interesting phenomena
since I came to Harrisburg has been
the taking of sides for and against me.
Why is it that they have made threats,
not only against my life, but have
opposed everything / have done? 1t
is not because have wronged anyone,
for / have treated all alike with re-
spect and have displayed no personal
spleen, yet many have hated me with
all the violent vitriolic hatred of their
wicked hearts.
ny Is II tldl lilOuSetiluS lleltN iliS =
Tt is because truth and good is opposed
wherever truth is preached. They hate
the messenger because of his message.
Insofar as the unregenerate are con-
cerned, Harrisburg is as wicked as
were those who slew the prophets;
they are as wicked as hell itself. If
they dared they would kill the modern
prophets on the spot as they did the
prophets of old.
His fervent pleading resulted in the
largest proportionate results since the
opening of the campaign. one hum
dred and five persons hit the trail
from a crowd not exceeding 5000.
One exhibit of conversion was a
half-empty quart flask of whisky
which one of the personal workers
took from the pocket of a sturdy
young fellow in tears, and placed IN
full view of the audience on~the speak
ers' platform. Another boy was the
son of a minister. who, DR. Slough
said, has broken his mothers heart

Sometimes the girls have enough
left to carry some away for the home
folks opinion.
Home Study
The home study consists in prepar-
ing some especial dish without help.
Whatever 1t was and how it succeeded
they tell when answering the roll call
at the next lesson. 1t takes about
two hours for each class to prepare,
cook. eat and clear away the dishes.
During the latter part of the work
they drop back into regular school
discipline. All talking is forbidden.
The kitchen must be left spotless.
Miss Hamilton is herself a graduate
of Central High and has had a hos
pital dietary course. Accordingly,
daintiness of service is a great point
in her instruction, even to odd and
attractive ways of folding a napkin.
Although the full course has only been
| open a few weeks. she feels greatly
encouraged at the way the girls take
to it. Each class has two lessons a
week and numbers between twenty
and thirty pupils.
1t is encouraging for the future hus-
bands of Harrisburg to know that
/ there are so many girls willing and
anxious to become good cooks.

By Anna H. Wood

For a certain, period of time our
country's progress was of so rapid
n growth that the gentle art of cook
ing was overlooked. 1t descended to
one of the primitive necessities. But
the pendulum is swinging back again.
Despite the prevalence of the family
hotel. the woman of to-day does not
consider her gingham apron a badge
of servitude." The great clamor for
sanitation has built a new type of
kitchen and now even the city school
boards appreciate the value of die
tectic training.
In the Central High School there
are over $50 girls, under the expert
leadership of Miss Frances Hamilton.
who are learning this most ancient of
accomplishments. A large. sunny base
ment room has been fitted up as a
study kitchen. Along the walls are
sinks, cupboards, china closet, coal
and a gas range. The whole center
of the room is occupied by a large
square formed of connecting fiat desks
with washable composition tops.
Above each desk is one-burner gas
plate and before each is a stool. Hero
in long aprons and crisp caps the flu
ture cooks prepare their material Re-
ceipts, mostly from the splendid book
of the Boston Cooking School, are
read aloud or written upon the black
board for copy. The beginners try in
dividual dishes but later pass on to
the preparation of an entire meal.
II Pays Not to Scorch Things
From every class are selected
'housekeepers,v certain girls to make
and watch the range fire, see to the
hot water supply, the cleansing of the
refrigerator, etc. Miss Hamilton does
none of the work herself. Her mis-
sion Is only to direct. The paper test

is used to try the ovens before baking.
When the scrap of paper is nicely
Drowned all over it is removed and
the dish to be cooked is put into it's
place. If the odor of scorching fills
the room Miss Hamilton never opens
the oven doors. The girl whose care
lessness allows scorching has her am
pie punishment. Later she must MAX G
the same dish again to prove she is
capable.
One of the most practical things
about this Domestic Science Course is
that all the cooking is taught in the
most economical way. There are no
expensive bread or cake mixers al
lowed, no delicate thermometers to
test the heat or electric current in
place of gas. 1t could all be done just
as well in your kitchen without put
ting you to shame for seeming behind
the times. The girls are taught to use
left-overs and the cheapest wholesome
materials. Whenever possible a sub
stitute replaces butter and the differ
ence in price is explained.
Every style and shape of pan, spoon.
fork and bowl that could possibly be
needed can be found in the plentifulIy
supplied closets. There is also a set
of attractive gold and white china and
in one corner a round dining table.
Part of the course includes the setting
and proper serving of a meal.
Girls Like the Work
The girls are thoroughly happy in
the work. Unlike most amateurs, they
do not suffer with cut and burned
fingers. They are financially respon-
sible for all breakage, so there is care
and neatness everywhere. They laugh
and chatter as they roll out their bis
cults or peel the potatoes. At some
especially intricate point they gather
around their jolly young teacher while
she demonstrates the easiest way to
overcome the difficulty.
When the lesson is over comes the
most interesting part-the tasting Pc
Rod Butter is brought out to eat
upon the fluffy hot biscuits and plates,
forks and. spoons for the other tests.

one which takes advance ground, was
the one handed down today blythe U.

Smyth of Iowa, and was approved by
Judge Hook of Kansas. Judge Walter
Sanborn of St. Paul dissented He
claimed that the evidence showed that
there has been no unreasonable re-
straint of trade with IL years prior to
the filing Of the suit, in April, 1912.
This decision goes farther than did
the courts in the case of the Northern
Securities corporation or the Union
Pacific.

was in violation of the law, but that il
has no criticism of the conduct OF
their business. cit seems to be an il
legally formed corporation which is
observing only good methods" was
his comment. The decision comes af-
ter a long investigation in which
thousands of witnesses were examin-
ed. The evidence before the court
consisted of 1O,250 printed pages.
