TELLS OF ADVANTAGES
AMERICAN WOMEN HAVE
Rev. j. VI. Alexander Gives Instruc-
tive Address in Urging Aid Tor
Florence CriItenton Work.

The great advantages which Ameri-
can women have over the women OF
all other nations Of the globe were
wildly and Interestingly brought out
by Rev. John NJ Alexander OF the
First Christian church in an address
delivered Wednesday afternoon before
the Florence Crittenton circle. The
speaker maintained that because Of
the more thorough Chrstenizing of
america the conditions for women
had become better even than in the
most Christian OF other nations where
the women generally hold places OF
less respect in the social and political
life. The speaker related instances
on the humiliation and degradation
which the women Of the war-striC&en
countries are now undergoing
In reference TO the Florence Crit
tenton work in South Bend Mr.. Al
eXander dwelt upon the urgent need
OF public cooperation particularly in
view OF the fact that report read at
the meeting had shown that members
OF the circle had made niore calls dur
ing the month and had received more
calls for aid than during any previous
month. The great need for the city,
as brought out by the report and by
Rev. Mr., Alexander. was that OF de-
tentiOn home where unfortunate girls
might be given quarters free from the
degrading influence of the Jail
The meeting Wednesday afternoon
was held at the home of Mrs. f. Jay
Smith, 213 +. South st. Prayer was
offered by Mrs. A. G. Keltner. The
music was furnished by Mrs. ]. b ].

Tails on Temperance
By JAMES c. KELLY

NTOU cannot mix intolerance with temperance and
still have temperance. Temperance is justice In
tolerance is unjust and bigoted.
g The original temperance movement, which educated
the people in moderation. has lost its identity and its
character 1t has been gobbled up by prohibition under
the leadership of shrewd and graspn9 politicians Little
is left but the and is used merely blind to
conceal the true character of prohibition.
q Prohibition is founded upon intolerance. Intimidation
is its only weapon threatens those who dare dissent
with financial political social ruin and thrives upon
the moral cowardice it finds
These statements not elitering eeneraties There
scarcely in public life right here in this who
has not received open yelled threats of destruction un-
less he supports the vicious prohibition program. Drohi-
bion would muzze the press in order prevent fair
and open discussion of public question The clergy
not immune. The prohibition machine has not hestated
to destroy the minister who dared suggest any solution of
the liquor problem other than prohibition
Prohibition is one hundred per intimidation, coer-
con and libel Great have been besmrched with its
bitter SANDER because they had the temeriy voice their
true convictions Prohibition ignores the public veal
when by doing it shove into responsible position
blatant demagogue whose only claim for support
his insincere prohibition rawlings.
Prohibition appeals fear and not 1t offers
arguments in its support True denounces ntem-
PeranCe. and do ALL but it does attempt show
how it will cure intemperance Prohibition is willing to
stand trial only where controls the judge and the jury

London Press Comments
on Blockade Controversy

London, Aug. 5.-While the news
papers generally treat the blockade
controversy as a question in the set
tlement of which Great Britain and
the United States are certain to ar
rive at "a friendly understanding the
Chronicle in an editorial declares the
stand of President Wilson entirely in
consistent with American precedents
Rotterdam, though Dutch, is a
port for Westphalia and the Rhine
land, the greatest German manufac-
turing district" says the Chronicle.
rs 1t reasonable to ask that sea-
borne trade to and from this district
should be absolutely unhampered
While Germany not only claims the
right to destroy any ship and cargo
on its way to any port in the British
Isles but has exercised that right by
destroying with submarines some 200
British and neutral vessels? Surely
not"
The Times regrets to learn that
America and Great Britain still are
at odds over the British blockade of

DIG CROWDS WAIT To
SEE CIRCUS PARADE
Trains and Wet Grounds Delay
Start of Jones Brothers Pro-
cession; Two Shows

Circus fans, old and young waited
almost to the giving up point to-day
to see the Jones Brothers aggrega-
ton on parade. They lost only time
by waiting. and that loss was fully
made up in the numerous special fea-
lures offered.
This was the first visit of the Jones
Brothers circus to Harrisburg, and 1t
will not soon be forgotten by the
owners. They came from Reading,
where two big crowds attended.
Trains were late in getting to Harris
burg. Then came the trouble of fixing
up an entirely new lot The circus
pitched its tents at Fourth and Seneca
streets. Time was lost in getting up
the big tops and preparing for the free
street parade.
1t was noon when the procession
started from the grounds. Along the
route crowds lined the curbs. 1t was
nearly l o'clock when the big band
wagon followed by many open cages
showing wild and ferocious lions,
hyenas and leopards, reached Market
Square. 1t was a glittering process
sion. Something new was the fa-
nous elephant Dunga Din, the only
rein driven elephant in the world.
The performance this afternoon
started at 2:30. The show itself was
all that was promised. The big tent
was thronged with crowd that an
ticipated no more than it received,
from the Wallet troupe of wire walk
ers to the herd of educated elephants,
most wonderfully trained by the mas
ter trainer, Cheerful Gardner. Hair
raising feats were performed by bare
back riders on beautiful horses and all
were delighted with the pretty act by
Mrs. Ducander and her waltzing pony.
Another performance will be given at
Sis tonight.

IVY POISONS 5000
HERE EACH SUMMER
Don't Be City "Rube" and Stop
to Admire the Gloss Green
of the Torment

Five thousand cases of ivy poison
ing make a summer--in Harrisburg -
and make it deucedly uncomfortable
while they're about it. Ivy poisoning
is one of the tortures they used in the
Spanish inquisition. The open season
is between June and September. The
chief victims are the poor innocents
from the big city who venture with
amazing fearlessness into the lurking
pitfalls of the country.
They see a beautiful vine of glossy
green that any farmers boy would pass
in wide circle. But the city-bred
"rubes' stoop to admire it. and not
long after begin to itch. They realize,
when the torment is well under way,
that they have ivy poisoning.
All persons are not susceptible to ivv
poisoning. Some can roll in poison ivy
ana raise not single blister. Others
acquire asGt gt the disease without actual con-
tlon from an ivy clump may put 'em

slant itching is like a witch's curse.
II is continuous torment, and often
means sleepless nights.
There are numerous so-called cures
Among the favorite remedies are fluid
extract of grindelia robusta, fluid ex-

people soak the affected parts with a

course is to prick each blister, press
