t9STeeITOneS
MANY SHIFTS IN
STEELTON FIGHTS
Hottest Election in Borough's
History Brings Forth Many
Surprises

Three ast-minute Withdrawals, ru-
mors of shifts among political leaders,
the all-day closing of all hotels and
scarcity of ballots in at least one
polling place-these were a few of the
high lights in the biggest political bat
tie to-day that Steelton has ever wit
messed.
The Withdrawals, coming as they
did on the day of election, were rather
surprising. AS it was, of course, too
late for the retiring candidates to have
their names stricken from the ballots,
they had to satisfy themselves by sim
ply passing out the word among the
voters that they no longer aspired to
Office.
The withdrawal of H. Russell Rupp
from the school dictatorship fight left
William H. Nell and John r.
Reider, Jr., unopposed for the nomi-
nation on all tickets for the full term
and Samuel A. Brehm for the two
ear term.
Favors Reynders
In the Third ward council contest
George Moten withdrew in favor of
j. V. w. Reynders to rush to the bed
side OF his sister, who is ill, in Wash
ington. Before leaving Moten in
formed his friends that it was his de-
sire that Mr.. Reynders be returned to
council unanimously. Down in the
Second ward Harry F. Lupfer, Demo-
cratic candidate for the council nomi-
nation, had affldavits posted declaring
that ne was not candidate against
Z. c. Henderson. This gives Mr.. Hen
derson the Democratic and Washing
ton nominations. He is contesting
With Elmer Fiese for the Republican
nomination. This means that If Hen
oerson wins to-day-as he probably
will-he will be unopposed for council.
Turn Out Early
voters appeared early at the vari-
Gus polling places and by noon a large
vote had been cast. The leaders were
on hand early and every known effort
was being made to get out large
vote. A remarkable feature of the
balloting was the heavy conservative
vote cast early in the day. Men who
usually show little interest in a pri-
mary contest were out to vote early.
This will have its effect on the fight
for Justice of the peace and county
treasurer. the two most bitterly con-
tested nomination here. In both
these races there were many inter-
esting developments.
interest In the county treasurership
nomination on the Republican side is
Keen here because both Mark Mumma
and John E. Shupp, the two opposing
candidates. are Steelton men. Both
nave large followings and the result
VIII be watched with interest.
Returns to be Late
From all indications the Steelton re-
turns will come in exceedingly late on
account of the large number of can
didates for the various borough offices
and the closeness of the vote. It is
not likely that anything definite win
be known here before midnight.
| All the hotel men in Steelton early
| this morning decided not to reopen
their bars after the polls close this
evening While the letter of the law
may permit us to reopen" explained
one OF the hotel men to-day, 1--WE feel
that we should close all day.

THE GLOBE

zen may say 1t is a useless expendi-
ture. 1t is the duty of the churcn
through both pastor and officiary to
encourage the movement. The church
snould also be in sympathy with the
movement In the public schools to
give the scholars a proportionate op-
portunlty in athletics. The church
can cooperate by ENCOURAGING the
halt-holiday movement for although
thls means recreation for the over
worked adult IT at the same time
gives father the opportunity of helping
direct the amusement life of the chill
dren.
The Boy Scout movement while
providing for the amusement of the
BOY, teaches him to be trustworthy,
loyal helpful, friendly, courteous,
L, klno, ooedient, cheerful, thrifty.
brave, clean and reverent. This So
ciety has been criticised because of
its suggestive militarism and because
IL is not essentially a religious move
ment This criticism, however is not
Wen taken when real Christian men
become the scoutmasters. For they
can change the Whole viewpoint and
they. generally do. Under their lead
ership the troop becomes Christian
rather than pagan"
The Rev. Mr.. Pyles said:
Inc statements of bishops, mod
orators, presidents of various religious
bodles establishes, we believe, If there
is any doubt, that we are not fully
utilizing the forces of the church, for
service and hence growth" said the
Rev Mr.. Pyles in his talk
To do our work Well we must
nave clear conception of our mis-
sion. The Apostles ransacked their yo-
caoulary to tind words and phrases
tRat ntungly portray their conception
or the church-two words stand ont
from all others in their writings-a
temple-a brotherhood. They look
upon God as the Builder and Archi-
tect.
In building up this brotherhood
we must make the distinction between
an audience, crowd. a gathering and
brotherhood. One is a heap of
stones, the other is welded together
by the uniting and unifying power of
the spirit of God. AS efficient work
men, we must work-work in sermon
that the flock of God may be fed with
the riches of the gospel-work in Wis
ltlng until we know our people, their
sorrows, battles, needs-work as shep-
nerds, warning, protecting, guiding,
rescuing, nouriShing
we must be organizers, touching
the last man and woman in the
church and seeing that some responsi-
bility is gi0rn them
we must make use of the mission
airy spirit, the great dynamic of Cod
for worlds salvation. For we save
ourselves as we save others and to
the extent that we do save others
Evangelistic fire must also burn on
our altars. A cold church is a HheI
on the Man of Galilee. EFFICIENCY Is
the great word in the business world
1t must be the great word in the
church life. We have the greatest
task in the world, the returns of the
labor are most gratifying, both for
time and eternity. Faithful work wins
the appreciation of good men and the
favor and blessing of Almighty God !"

When You Wash Your
Hair Don't Use Soap

Most soaps and prepared sha mpoos
contain too much alkan, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsi1ed cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats soaps or anything
else all to pieces. You can get this at
any drug store, and a few ounces will
last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub It in, about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly. and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han
die. Besides, it loosens and takes
out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandruff.-Advertise
