SCHOOL DIRECTORS

TT is going to be more than difficult
for the Democratic machine this
year to persuade the citizens of
Harrisburg that certain reputable men
who have consented to enter the race
for the School Board are the sub
servient tools of a political group or
faction. At least one of the Repub-
Iican candidates was admittedly the
choice of the chairman of the Demo-
cratic city committee for school di-
rector on a fusion ticket and it will
not be easy for the Democratic bosses
to throw dust in the eyes of the voters
regarding the special fitness of this
particular candidate. Nor will it be
possible for these same inconsistent
politicians in the Democratic camp to
deceive the people regarding other
prominent Republicans of indepen-
dent tendencies who are likewise
standing as candidates for service in
the School Board.
We admit that 1t is unfortunate fac
tional politics should be injected into
contests for school directors, but 1t
must be apparent that those who are
desirous of electing to the board men
of character and ability have little ex-
cuse to go outside the Republican
party this year. Mr.. Stamm, Mr..
Enders and DIR. Keene represent all
that is progressive and independent
and public spirited in this community.
If the Democratic machine really
wants a change in the present school
board organization-which this same
machine has been insisting is most un-
satisfactory-then these three men
present the opportunity for such in
dependence of action as the bosses of
the Democratic party are constantly
insisting should characterize the Sc
lection of school directors. Certainly,
the Democratic machine will not pre-
tend that it can present for the voters
three candidates more acceptable in
every way.
In short, there is no occasion for
the injection of factionalism or par
tisanship into the campaign for school
directors. If the Democratic party is
able to present to the people more
worthy men than those referred to,
then it will be the duty of the voter
to determine his choice on the basis
of fitness for the duties to be per
formed in the management of the i'm
portant school interests of Harrisburg
and without regard to political con-
siderations.

MUNICIPAL CELEBRATION

ITHERE is increasing interest
l. throughout the city and over
all Central Pennsylvania in the
approaching municipal celebration
which will commemorate the big pub
lie improvement events of the last
fourteen years. Committees are at
work upon the various matters and
the program as outlined is develop
ing in the most satisfactory way.
It should be understood, however,
that the cooperation of the people,
young and old, is necessary to a com
plete and well-rounded program. 1t
will not do to assume that the Cham
Der of Commerce and its committees
will do all the work and provide all
the entertainment. Take the river
carnival, for instance. Every boy who
can handle a boat, every corporation
and the owners of all craft must
be interested. Canoes and motorboats
and every floating thing that can be
decorated or made to serve on this
occasion should be utilized. There
ought to be keen competition among
those who are e|1nterested in decorat-
ing the flotilla which will cover the
surface of the Susquehanna Basin on
the night of the carnival.
Much in the way of ingenuity can
be presented on that occasion in the
arrangement of the floats and the
smaller boats and canoes. This car
nival promises to be a great spectacu-
lar event and all who are concerned
in the success of the big celebration
are hopeful that during the next week
or ten days the entries will be so large
as to assure such a showing on the
river as has never been known in the
history of the city. The heads of the
municipal departments are doing their
part in bringing to fruition and COM
pletion in every way the several en-
terprises under their charge.
Harrisburg must present a spic and
span appearance in every corner of
the city. Our streets must be, as they
generally are. clean and attractive;
our parks and our several public works
must be in the best of order; there
must be, in short, everything to at
tract the visitor and fill with pride
| the heart of every citizen.
This celebration must simply be the
crossing of one summit in our munich
pal progress and the beginning of the
ascent to still greater heights of mu-
nicipal achievement.
Invite your friends here for the
Greater Harrisburg festivities and let
us all rejoice that we have done so
we'll while still hoping to do still
better.

EVENING NEWSPAPERS ARE
GAINING IN ADVERTISING

While the war period has had
tendency to bring about a decrease in
newspaper advertising throughout this
country, just as it has in other lines of
business, 1t is interesting to note that
morning newspapers have been called
upon to bear the brunt of the pairing
down.
In New York city, for instance, of
the seventeen morning and evening
newspapers published there the morn
ing newspapers suffered a loss for the
first seven months of this year. as
compared with the same period last
year, practically seven times as great
as that of the evening newspapers.
Where gains in advertising were
made, 80 per cent, of the increased
volume of business was enjoyed by
evening newspapers and 20 per cent.
by morning newspapers.
A study of such conditions is in
teresting to those who buy newspaper
advertising, evidencing as it does that
advertisers generally are of the opinion
that when confronted with the neces-
sity of cutting down advertising ap-
preparations they can least afford to
do without evening newspapers. For
the past five or six years there has
been a growing tendency among ad-
vertisers for evening newspapers-the
paper that goes directly into the home.

portant than some other things in the
world of economies We have seen
that 1t is without the pale of politics
to bring down prices, as witness the
failure of the Wilson administrations
chief platform plank. But we do
know from experience that political
policies may make or ruin national
prosperity. We also know that when
labor is busy money is plenty and
that then high prices are not matters
of very great concern. Consequently,
If the United States is put on an
economic basis favorable to prosperity
we decline to get excited over the
possibility of high prices after the
war.

Advertising Economy

Newspaper advertising is sold
in exact quantities.
You can buy enough to cover
ono city or one hundred-one
section or a continent.
A dollar spent in newspaper
circulation works a good dollars
worth. The waste is the mini
mum.
Newspaper advertising is sea-
sonable. You can employ 1t for
summer goods where summer
warmth demands them.
You can send a warning mes
sage to the frozen north while
the sunny south is too busy
keeping cool to be interested.
That is economy.
