A FRENCH PLAYwRIGHT's VISIT

There was a significance in the presence of
Eugene Brieux, French poet and playwright, at the
opening session in New York the other day of the
annual Joint meeting of the American Academy of
Arts and Letters and the National Institute of Arts
and Letters. in addition TO that appearing in the
message which he brought Besides coming to this
country as the representative of the French Acad-
emy, he bore greetings from President Poincaire to
President Wilson, and demonstrated that there are
bonds other than formal treaties which connect
nations
Despite the war. in which France has its impor-
tant part that nation has not forgotten that it has
place TO maintain in the world of arts and letters
The visit of the ambassador of art from France"
as the chairman introduced him at the New York
meeting, showed that France has not abandoned
itself entirely to the CHASTITY game of war that it
still has an interest in the wholesome substantial
things Of life.
The principal idea advanced by VI. Brieux before
the american of arts and letters cannot be
Overlooked The distinguished playwright asserted
that he looks upon the theatre not as goal but as
a means to an end hoping through it not only to
make people think and modify their habits but
also to cause the enactment of desirable laws Two
of his plays, he said have helped to save some
lives and Tighten the burdens of others In one
sentence he embodied the motive which might to
advantage be adopted by more American authors
Of plays and novels who give the world their
products:

upon the earth might have diminished little be-

HELP THE HosPTTALl

Notwithstanding.the exceptional demands the
citizens of Harrisburg TO give according to their
ability to help relieve the terrible suffering in the
European zone, they should not and will not
overlook the requirements of local charitable insti-
tutions. Just now appeal is being made for the
annual Thanksgiving Day contributions to the Har-
rsburg hospital an institution whose usefulness in
the community well known that it is not neees-
sary to dwell here upon how deserving it is of pub
lie support All that is necessary to insure gen.
erous response TO the appeal is to call it to the
public mind
Bags for Thanksgiving contributions are now
being distributed and can be obtained by phoning
to the hospital The gifts that are most needed are
jelies, canned goods linens aud soap. Money of
course is even more acceptable.
The charitable people of Harrisburg should re-
member that if the requests for their assistance
both from at home and abroad are far greater than
usual this fall and winter it is because the need of
their assistance is far greater 1t may take more
than the usual amount of selfsacrice to respond to
the exceptionally large number of requests this
year but Harrisburgers who give have never failed
10 act on the principle that the greater the need
the greater is their willingness to aid

HOW COLD WEATHER HELPS

Nature often accomphshes good where neither
the government nor the politicians can. We quote
the following from Dun weekly trade review:
Cooler weather throughout the wide mas helped the
coal trade enlarged retail trade in wearing apparel favor
ably Influenced lines % jobbing rade and in
junction with easier money and freer marketing Of
commodities especially grain and cotton has helped eoec
tions somewhat.
1t might be added that cold weather tends to
drive out the foot and mouth disease as well as
certain ailments of the human race. 1t makes game
more paatable, gives pumpkin pie better flavor
and takes the mouth-puekerng qualities out of the
persimmon.
Even politicians VINO want to head off prosperity
for their own selfish ends cannot prevent cold
weather from bringing US some good things For
that, at least, we can be thankful next THURSDAY

WOMAN IN HISTORY
She Appears to Have Got Herself on
Good Many Pages

Some advocates of equal suffrage and
feminine progress seem to think that
woman has not been given her proper
place and due credit in history.
And yet, don t you know, We had
not observed the historic discrimination
against woman! On the contrary, the
place of woman in history has looked
pretty good to US.
What about Joan of Arci And Char
lotte Cordayf And Rebecca the Jewess9 ?
Anything namby pamby in them? Who
said Martha Washington and Florence
Nightingale Then there are-don t
let everybody speak at once-Ruth and
Rachel and Potiphar wife, not to
mention Lot $.
You bet Caudle had no contempt for
Mrs. Caudle, nor MOntalini for the
madame.

violation of the provision of the New York labor
laws against the employment on public work of
men not citizens of the United States. That pro-
vision, however, has been dead letter because the
restriction would greatly handicap work of exca-
walton on canals tunnels and subways, most of
which falls to the lot of the aliens.
If there are enough Americans to do the public
work in America they should have the preference,
undoubtedly, but it is question whether it is wise
to retard great public improvements by barring
alien workmen if Americans cannot be obtained in
sufficient numbers

WHATS IN A NANfE7
A Plea for Correctly Designating
Places and Celebrities

Frederick Upham Adams objects in
mis- Conquest of the Tropics to the
name usually given TO the discoverer
of America.
Speaking of the immortal Columbus,
why do We call him by that name
He never bore while living any such
name. He was born of the Italian
family of Colombo. When he en-
tered the Spanish service he changed
his name to "Cristobal Colon And
We insist on calling him columbus. .
In Spain, Mexico, Central America
and all Spanish speaking countries the
natives never heard of the "UniteC
States. They translate it into 'tEs
tados Unidos," and they have as mucl
right to call it that as we have to call
Espana by the title of "Spain" or
Roma by the title of "Rome."
hold that We should call countries
and cities and celebrities by their tru,
names, and not stick to the clumsy
derivations which have lazily beel
substituted. There is no such city a
vienna" unless it happens to b
some village in the United States. Tn
great Austrian capital is name
"Wien," and only those who speal
the English language call it anything
else. There is no such city as "Brus-
sels,' but the beautiful capital of Bel
gium is really named Bruxelles.'
II is time that we called the erea
discoverer by the name under whic
ne achieved immortal fame, Cristoba
