BY MARY LEWIS

Fifteen years ago Harrisburg awoke
to the fact that this city needed a
great many improvements. This week
we are celebrating the improvements
that have been made since 1900.
Since this time all the streets have
been paved, parks have been laid out
and improved, a score of Fairgrounds
have been made, river front has been
improved and the Mulberry street.
viaduct built.
The well paved streets of Harris
burg give the children opportunity to
enjoy many games. These kind of
streets make it possible for children
to play on them without getting so
dusty and soiled. Before the streets
We're paved children were also liable
to carry disease into their homes from
the badly kept streets.
Before this time the conditions
along the river were bad. All along
the river filth gathered and the whole
affair presented an unattractive ap-
pearance. Now the conditions are
quite different and river front is very
attractive for grown-ups as we'll as
for children. Canoeing, boating and
swimming are sports in which many
boys and girls participate.
The parks of the city are very beau
tiful. Harrisburg is almost surround
ed by Parks, this making it easy for
children for all parts of the city to
get to them. Here children come
daily to enjoy the recreation and
games which help to make them bet
ter boys and girls.

Many permanent public improve
ments have been made during the past
fifteen years. but to us the younger
element of the city, the wonderful
advancement that has taken place in
our public schools and the park and
playground development are the most
important.
1t is now possible for every boy and
girl to acquire a first-class educa-
tion at no expense whatever, and the
advantages we have over our par
ents along educational lines and the
city of Harrisburg always alert to
the need of new school buildings to
further the education of it's youth.
are each year becoming more appar-
ent to the general public.
Closely associated with the schools
are the public Fairgrounds, running
track, baseball diamonds. lighthouses,
tennis courts and golf courses.
The Fairgrounds are accomplishing
much toward the moral and physical
uplift of Harrisburg's future citizens,
because they keep us off the public
streets where we are ever subjects to
danger and where we might be tempt
ed by forms of amusement with de-
moralizing effects and teach us to de-
velop into clean and courteous men
and women.
In conclusion, I can only state that
we have much to be grateful for
school facilities. Fairgrounds, beau
tiful recreational parks and a river
front and promenade, the development
of which has made Harrisburg n
much envied city-most of which has
been made possible through the pub
lie improvement campaign of the past
fifteen years.

BY RUTH REEVES

Harrisburg has improved so great
ly that it would take a month to tell
it all. These, in my estimation. are
the best advantages to the school chill
dren.
The open air school is one to which
the sick children who could not go
to school if this institution did not
exist, can go.
There is Technical High. that large
school with all improvements where
the boys OF Harrisburg can learn
trades. The Harrisburg High school
enables the girls and boys to obtain
a good general education.
There are also. the grade schools
for the younger children. The rooms
are arranged so that the children are
not crowded and are able to get lots
of sunshine and fresh air.
The domestic science in the high
school is new study and a very help
full one, because some girls mothers,
l am sorry to say, do not know how
to cook. In this class they are taught
to prepare many appetizing dishes.
The libraries are of great import
ance to the boys and girls They can
go to them and set books for educa-
tion and pleasure.
Then the curfew law, which has
been enforced in Harrisburg this
year. keeps boys and girls under fifteen
years of age off the streets after 9.15
o'clock unless accompanied by an
older person. Previous to this law
children were seen on the streets at
all hours of the night.
came back to school again because
most of us are in school and are in
terested in il. All boys and girls un-
der sixteen years of age are COM
PEELED to attend school unless they
must help TO support their families.
Track meet is a fine thing for the
schools. 1t gives the boys physical
training and makes everybody have
a good school spirit
The Fairgrounds also give young
folks healthy exercise and keeps them
from playing on the streets. For these
reasons I think Harrisburg is a bet
ter city for boys and girls on ac-
count of the recent improvements.

FACIAL PLASTER CASTS.
Having One of Them Made Is a Mighty
 Disagreeable Process.

Having One of Them Made Is a Mighty
 DisagreeabIe Process.
 Perhaps nothing can be imagined more disagreeable than the process of taking plaster impression of the fea- lures.
 The person whose face is to be taken is placed fiat upon his back, his hair smoothed back with pomatum to prevent 1t co-cring any part of the face, and a conical piece of paper, a straw or a quill put in each nostril to breathe through. The eyes and mouth are then closed, and the entire face completely and carefully covered with salad oil.
 The plaster, mixed to q proper con sistency. is then poured over the fea- lures to the thickness of one-quarter or one-half inch.
 In three or four minutes this plaster can be taken off as if it were film. but they are very long minutes. The victim must not sneeze, smile, cough or otherwise move muscle, or the whole process will have to be repeated.
 When cast of the entire head or of the whole human figure is required, either east of the face is added to q mass of clay which is to be modelled to the entire figure. or the whole figure is modelled from drawings prepared for the purpose. This is the work of the sculptor.
 When the clay I:odel is finished a mould is male fro:l it. A thin ridge of clay is lai along the figure from the head to the ase, and the front is first completed u:I to the ridge by filling up the dApr ssions two or three inches deep.
 Tho rid"c of cl1- is now removed. the edges of the plaster are oiled, and the other half is done in a similar way. The two halves are then tied together with cords. and the plaster poured in.
 In complicated figures, like the I4aoc- oon. the statue is oiled and covered with gelatin. which is cut off in sec tions by means of a thin. sharp knife, each piece serving as a. mold for its own part of the new statue.-St. Louis Globe e-Democrat.
