AIM To ELIMINATE
PROFIT SHARING TAGS
Commerce Chamber Supports
Proposed Laws to Equalize
Tax Exemption

A meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Harrisburg Chamber Of
Commerce was held at noon to-day.
A. w. Moul, chairman, w. II. Bene-
thum and J. William Bowman were
appointed committee to represent the
Chamber in the effort being made to
put such license tax upon the oper-
alton in Pennsylvania of trading
stamp and profit-sharing coupon con-
Germs so that they would find it i'm
possible to invade this State any more.
BY a majority vote the chamber
passed the following resolution in
favor of a law that will put Harrisburg
on the same taxing basis as the larger
cities in Pennsylvania
Whereas, Pittsburgh and Scranton,
the second-class cities of Pennsylvania,
have secured special legislation eX-
empting machinery from taxation and
allowing a gradual reduction of as
sessments on improvements, so that
after 1926 buildings and other i'm
provements will be taxed at but so per
cent of their value; and
Whereas, The Harrisburg Chamber
of Commerce recognizes that these tax
exemptions wive to second-class cities
an industrial advantage over cities of
the third-class;
Therefore be it resolved. that the
Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce
join with the trade organizations in
the other third-class cities of Pennsyl-
vania in their effort to have enacted
by the present legislature, bills which
will place cities of the third class on
the same basis as cities of the second
class.
BE it further Resolved, that the
secretary of the Harrisburg Chamber
of Commerce make written requests
of the members the Legislature from
this district to support the proposed
laws equaliZing tax exemption in the
second and third-class Cities.V

SUNDAY SCHOOLS IN FULTON
Annual Convention at Metamora An Inspiration Large
Attendance at Each Session Helpful and
Interesting Addresses Aggressive
Plans For Future Work

One of the factors that is at work
among the citizens of Fulton county
helping more than many people inn
agine to raise the standard of citizen
ship in the county, to raise the ideals
and aspirations of individuals and, in
consequence, to insure the sure and
steady progress of the county along
material, mental and spiritual lines;
is the factor that finds its expression
in the combined Sunday Schools of
this county.
without great ostentation, but
quietly and persistently, the influence
of the Sunday school permeates socie-
ty through the years. implantihg the
love Of truth and right and instilling
the principles of kindness, temperance,
brotherliness and love in the minds
and lives Of men, women and children,
II is a factor that deserves and should
have the support and active co-opera-
tion of every citizen; and there is no
factor in our community life which
holds larger potentialities for real
good and permanent uplift than does
this.
At least a glimpse of this factor
and it's work was afforded to the
general public by the Annual Conven-
ton of the Fulton Sunday School As
sociation last week Tuesday and
Wednesday at Metamora. The at

THE LEGACY Of ORPHEUS
First Prize Grafton Delivered at Oratorical Contest
Friday Evening May 14th, at High School Audi
torium by Miss Mary McClarren, Class of
1916 Wauseon High School

If present day educational tenden-
cies have a slogan it must be the
word practical. Be it far from us
to belittle the value and necessity of
practical things, but be it even far
ther from US to say that the practical
is the highest good. Ideals are more
necessary and have greater value,
and, so we believe it well to cease for
time our rude handling of idealistic
tendencies and to listen to a voice
that is known of all men. For there
is scarcely a human being, be he
crude or cultured, who is so dull, so
unapproachable, so lacking in senti-
ment, that he cannot be moved by
music. By it we are lifted from the
toilsomeness and drudgery of every
day life into the realms of joyful con-
tentment and the communion with the
things that are beautiful.
Music is one of the few means by
which we are able to scale that high
er world of intelligence-a world
which seems to efifold and envelop US
but which we. in turn, are unable to
fully comprehend and express. The
scope of music is boundless embracing
poetry, nature, love, religion, in short
all that is beautiful and good. 1t is not
alone in the sweet perfume of the
rose, ''in the soft splendor of the rain
bow, or in the song of chirping bird"
but there is never a blade or a leaf,
too mean. to be some happy creatures
palace"-happy, because there is music
even in the lowliest of creatures.
Then, since all nature is full of
music it is only reasonable to sup
pose that music has a practical value
All over the world music breaks the
monotony of toll and provides a fresh
and clean mental and physical hold
amid the general sordidness of life.
Victrolas cheer the sick and wounded
soldiers in the field hospitals; songs
in. the school fill a cloudy and gloomy
day with vigor and life; the old fami-
liar church hymns comfort those that
mourn and strengthen the faith of
the discouraged. Even in the prisons
where uncomfortable criminals are
confined. music has many times been
able to perform wonders. This idea
was illustrated in a prison of Sher-
bourne, Massachusetts. where a few
months rehearsal and finally the rem
dition Of the opera "Piratos of Penz-
ance' filled the morose and unmanag-
able inmates with new life and
hopefulness. Uncle Sam has also
found a practical value for music for
he knows that thirty per cent. more
coal is placed in the bunkers of his
war vessels while the bands are p1av-
ing lively, cheary music than when
the sailors work unaccompanied.
