Temple, at o'clock, Rabbi Grossman
Ihreefold Message of Rosh Hashanah"
At the Fifth Street Temple, at IL
O'Clock. Rev. George Silverstone ad-
dressed a large congregation.
Really an Anniversary,
The Hebrew New Year is really an
anniversary of the creation of uni
verse;" said Rev. Dr. Simon, in his
sermon at the Eighth Street Temple
last evening. 1T is one of the few an
niversaries of the worlds history that
are built neither on war nor the work
of man. 1t is a day of God, and as
such should be doubly sacred in these
times of trouble. when the nations of
the world are at each others throats,
not struggling for supremacy, but for
something they do not know"
Speaking of the Day of Atonement,
which comes September IS, he de-
clared: 1T is the same with the Day
or Atonement This day to the He
brew is the most sacred of all days
OF the year. 1t means a specific time
for repentance and forgiveness, when
grudges shall be wiped out, old scores
abolished, and clean slate started be-
and man, man and wife, and those who
meet on equal terms in their daily
work"

THREAT IS MADE
BY DRY ELEMENT
If FILIRUSTER is KEPT UP THEY
MAY PUT NEW LAW INTO
IMMEDIATE EFFECT.

ATLANTA, Nov. 1O.-If the anti
prohibitionists in the house go too far
with their filibuster. which is intend
ed to force the prOhibitionsts to make
the prohibition bills effective on July
1, 1916, instead of on January l, 1916,
they will not only fail in the object
of the filibuster. but will bring down
upon their heads an amendment max
ing the bills effective on and after
the day of their passage.
This was the general feeling yester
day afternoon among the prohibition
members of the house, after they haG
been held all day yesterday and
practically all of the day before by
the anti prohibition filibuster, and il
is very likely that the prohibition
members of the senate will join will
the house prOhibitionists in putting
through such an amendment
The anti prohibitionists first claim
ed that they were conducting a fill
buster because the prohibitionists il
the house refused to pass the appro
priation bill ahead of the prohibition
bills. AS the filibuster developed
however, it became apparent, and in
deed was not denied but on the con
trary was openly stated, that the rea
aim and purpose of the filibuster was
to force the prohibitionists, if posi-

BILE, to give the saloons. beer dealers
and locker clubs another six months
of grace.
1t was clearly demonstrated in the
house yesterday that the anti-prohi-
bitionists can prolong the extra SEES
sion Indefinitely As before stated,
they can muster sufficient votes to
sustain call for the ayes and nays,
and this enables them to keep a fill
buster going as long as they see fit
To sustain a call for the ayes and
nays requires one fifth of those vot-
ing. In case of vote by the full
membership of the house, which is
1879. this is 80 votes. The antis have
this number with a slight margin to
spare.

are anxious to terminate the extra

content to let the ants prolong the

since the responsibility for dragging

in the filibuster.
But because they are anxious for
the costs Of the extra session to be
reduced to a minimum, and anXiOu;
to get back home, the prohibition
members are not in a mood to toler

They are confident that should {

bills to be passed without further
delay.

Wig6eld Urges Early
Action on Park Plans

The necessity of at once completing
the development of Luther R. Kelker
park and formulating a comprehen-
sive plan for park and playground ex-
tension is pointed out by Fred Wig
field, burgess of Steeltop.
Since his election to the Office OF
chief executive of the borough. Bur-
CESS Wigfield has been staunch ad-
vocate of the development of Kelker
park and has repeatedly called atten-
tion to Steelton's need for recreation
places for the borough's youth.
The Municipal League cannot be
commended too strongly" said he
"for its efforts towards obtaining the
development of Kelker park. l was
indeed surprised when I strolled out
there a few days after the field day ex-
ercises Just as it is, Kelker park is q
picturesque spot Really / can't think
of any place hereabouts that is as ad-
mirably fitted by nature for arecreatior
place. l sincerely hope that some
way can be found to complete the pro-
ject and shall certainly do everything
in my power towards obtaining a com.
prehensive park and Fairgrounds sys.

Develop Parks For Sake
of Children-McGinnes

In speaking of the value of a COM
prehensive park system to the chill
dren of steelton. Professor L. E
McGinnes. superintendent of schools,
dwelt at length on the value OF trees.
Said he:
Trees have much to do with the
general welfare of all classes of peo-
pie. They have great value on ac-
count of their beauty and shade, their
mechanical uses. and for their connec-
tion as forests in influencing the flow
of streams. The first work of the
early settler was to cut down the trees
to clear a space for his farm. To him
a forest fire was more of a blessing
than misfortune. Not so to-day
Conditions have changed and the vital
Importance of tree planting and tree
preservation is forced upon the people
all over the land.
This being true, as means of pro-
lection alone. every child should be
taught to love trees. Nothing would
be better calculated to encourage that
sentiment in Steelton than the further
development of Kelker park. But
there is another higher reason. BY
engaging the pupils of our schools in a
practical study of the trees by the
actual observation and handling OF
them in their living state would be
most wholesome to the children them
selves. 1t would give scope and stimu-
lus to their observing faculties: 1t
would heighten the sentiment in favor
of both physical and moral cleanli-
ness. and it would cause a deeper
appreciation of the beauties and won
ders of nature

who would devote his entire time to
the work.
Proud of Progress
II feel said Mr.. Holton, that we
have every reason to be proud OF
what has been accomplished. The
time of most of those who have been
active, however, is very much taken
up with business affairs and until
someone is put in the position where
he can devote more than passing at
tention to the subject, we cannot hope
to make the best possible headway.
MY thought is that such recrea-
ton supervisor should not only have
charge of outdoor work but during
the winter months would plan and
carry out indoor entertainments, using
the school buildings and similar places
as social centers. In order to achieve
results, however. the interest and CO.
operation of more of our people is es-
sential. We have good many boos-
ters, but need more. Let everyone
get busy"

May Develop Park at
Trivial Cost Manning

How Kelker Park may be trans
formed into one of the prettiest
recreation spots in Central Pennayl-
vania, at trivial cost, was outlined
by Warren II. Manning. the famous
Boston landscape architect. who plan
nad the place, IN a recent interview
for the Telegraph
E-The tract has all the natural requi-
sites for = beautiful park" enthusiast
tically declared Mr. Manning. '1t is
excellentiy situated on the slopes OF
that deep rawne. with plenty of shade
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-10-22

be gradually reduced until they are
eliminated. said the landscape artist.
Use should be made of the pretty
winding stream that flows down
through the hollow, he urged, by the
construction of shallow wading pool.
This could be done at a trivial cost" :"
1t was pointed out by the expert, "by
stream near Mohn street. In this pool,
so constructed, the smaller folks who
are now forced to play in the bor-
ough streets while speeding automo-
biles are whizzing by, could wade and
splash and play to their hearts con-
tent-and in safety
Older folks could obtain pleasure
from the park If a few tables and
benches were added for picnic pur-
poses. Even as it is, however" said
Mr.. Manning, the park is suitable
for outings because there is plenty of
rich green grass"
Bandstand in Park
Mr.. Manning was informed of Coun-
ellis plan to build bandstand on the
lawn at Front and Angle streets and
asked whether. in his estimation, it
would not be more advisable to erect
it on the publicly-owned park, instead
of on this private plot.
This suggestion he strongly en-
dorsed. The natural ampitheater in
which the stand could be built in
Kelker Park would cut down the cost
of benches" said he.
However" said Mr.. Manning, 'if
Council would not care to erect the
still make arrangements for band con-
certs there by building a concrete
bandstand.
This" he explained. could be
done very cheaply by making a.
slightly raised concrete base upon the
site already selected in the park.
Steel or wooden posts could be placed
on each corner to support an awning,
which would protect the musicians
from the elements This awning
could be removed at will. The musi-
clans could sit on chairs which might
be stored beneath the bandstand
floor"
AS closing suggestion, the park
expert said that several lavatories
should be placed on the hill at the
eastern side of the park where they
could not contaminate any streams.
"AIl these changes and improve
ments," declared Mr.. Manning, could
be made for a comparatively small
sum of money"

ker Park, recently, Mrs. j. NJ. Heagy,
president of the Civic Club and one of
the most ardent supporters of the park
and Fairgrounds movement, said:
Our town is too big not to have
some provision made for the children.
We ought to have several Fairgrounds
where the little ones can get off the
street and play in safety. Then, too.
on regular playground we could
have an instructor who would watch
over the children and direct their
play along systematic lines.
You know Steelton is woefully be-
hind the other places of it's size as far
as Fairgrounds go. And we have so
many other good points that ] think
we should at once make some provi-
sion for Fairgrounds that would put us
in the rank of other cities and bor-
oughs. We should keep our children
off the streets and we should allow
them to play where they will not be
menaced by speeding automobiles or
trolley cars"
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-10-22

Looking toward the further develop
ment and maintenance of a compre-
hensive system of parks. Fairgrounds
and recreation places for Steelton.
Charles r. Holton. secretary of the
Municipal League, in an interview to-
day. suggested that all facilities of this
character. including the Cottage Hill
athletic field. the Luther r. Kellker
Park and such Fairgrounds as are
available, or could be made available.

first field day results. He is now of the
of the tract.
THE results of the field day. eXer-
cises," he declared. SHOW conclusively
that the people of Steelton want a
park. It's now up to council, believe
to complete the project. OF course, l
konw that the borough does not have
much money available at this time for
park development purposes, but
think it would be wise plan to look
ahead and set aside a certain amount
of money for park and playground
purposes each year in the annual
budget"

trees, and a winding stream of run
ming water.
"A few rows of Iow-growing ever
green trees planted along the western
boundary line of the park would add
attractiveness. Some more trees
should be planted around the music
concourse." suggested Mr. Manning
Preserve the Trees
He also urged that the beautiful
dogwoods and redbuds be preserved in
their natural state. Kelker Park
abounds in these trees which during
certain seasons of the year are COW
cred with beautiful flowers that make
the park show place of wondrous
beauty.
The great number of locust trees
now growing in the park should
