DEVICE RECEIVERS ARTICLES
LOST WHEN BOAT UPSETS

On of the unyleasantnesses some
times experienced by sportsmen, that
of losing a valuable gun or favorite
fishing rod in the water, is eliminated
through the application of a simple
mechanical devices which has recently
been patented. With it an article
which drops to the bottom of lake
when a canoe Unexpectedly capsizes
may be restored in few minutes
time. The instrument is made of
brass. in cylindrical in shape, weighs
ounces, and may be screwed to the
end of a fishing rod or clamped to a
gun so that it is not cumbersome. Its
mechanism consists of strong
spring, cork spool carrying from 40
to 75 feet of silk line, and a perfor-
ated cap which is held in place by a
fiber cord. Within few seconds
after tis submerged in the water, the
fiber string give way under the pres
sure eXerted by the spring. This
pushes off the cap and liberates the
cork spool, which unwinds the line
wrapped about it as it rises to the
surface. When the cork appears al
the top it holds a strong line, the OPP
posite end of which is attached to the
sunken implement or package, that
may be pulled from the bottom with
out dfficulty.-From the February

PRACTICAL TRAINING PAYS

THE Harrisburg Young Women's
Christian Association does well
= TO supplement it's physical
spiritual and social uplift pro-
CRANE with practical instruction in
every day duties.
A. study of the work being done by
the association shows that nearly
$500 girls are being taught things
which will be of great value to them
in the workaday world, including such
branches as millinery, cooking, en-
broidery, painting, English, German
and French. Hundreds are being
trained to do things which will enable
them TO earn more money or to be
more capable wives and mothers when
once the right man comes along"
The spiritual and social work is per-
haps most important of all, but the
benefits derived from doing things of a
practical nature in the various study
classes are easiest seen by the girls
which the association aims to reach.
And once interested in the practical.
the girl is much more easily Influenced
in spiritual and social way.

"LET HER VOTE"

If she really wants to vote,
Here is hoping she will win it:
Look about you and take note
Who's ag'in it:
Every low saloon and dive,
All the vicious white-slave dealers
Firms that on child-labor thrive,
And ward-healers.
"In the home is woman's place"
And these forces there would keep
her.
While gratis crop grows up apace,
For the reaper.
Should she vote, crime still would
lurk
In the smoke we've left unlighted;
But she might do lots of work
We have sighted.
She might clean the city hall.
And with soap and water might
Spots where our committees all
Have used whitewash.
But" you cry, in great distress,
"All these tasks from home might
win herr"
She's be back in time. ] guess

4 PRAYER
(By ELLA Wheeler Wilcox

Copyright, 1914, Star Company
Master of sweet and loving lore,
Give us the open mind
To know religion means no more,
No less, than being kind.
Give us the comprehensive sight
That sees another's need,
And let our aim to set things right
Prove God inspired our creed.
Give us the soul to know our kin
That dwell in flock and herd
The voice to fight mans shameful sin
Against the beast and bird.
Give us q heart with love so fraught
For all created things
That even our unspoken thought
Bears healing on its wings.
Give us religion that will cope
With life's colossal woes,
And turn 81 radiant face of hone
On troops of pigmy foes.
Give us the mastery of our fate
In thoughts so warm and white.
They stamp upon the brows of hate
Loves glorious zeal of light.
Give us the strong, courageous faith
That makes of pain q friend,
And calls the sacred word of death
Beginning" and not END"

Because they're swimming with the

As young as all the youngsters!

And how | love to praise them
They season songs of life with rhyme.
And troubles never Tease them.
The old men trust the longest.

The old men live in dreams. indeed.
But, ah, what tender cause and need,
And It's hats off from the youngsters!
The old men love the sweetest
And they can tell 1T best;
The old men with undying dreams
That lead TO lovely rest

The old men waltz the neatest
The old men headed for the stars,

high office has been coincident with a
period of extraordinary political tur-

THE OPEN DOOR

(By Grace NJ. Chaplin in the Sunday
School Times.)
High up beneath the cobwebbed caves.
At close-barred window-pane,
A little bird in anxious fear
Beat quivering wings in vain.
Yet the bird was not a prisoner!
A humble door swung wide,
Leading to the sunlit air
And the whole sweet countryside.
Would I could show YOU, little bird,
How freely you might go
out to your life and winged
song,
If only you dared fly low!

at Harrisburg. But always he has
maintained his poise, and exercised his
tact and employed his energies with
an eye single to the interests of the
commonwealth. So he comes down.
to the end of his incumbency with the
satisfaction of knowing that he has
been able to register definite progress
for the people, while the Republican
party, to which he is q credit, emerges
from the four years with larger vote
of confidence as of 1914 than it re-
ceived in 1910.

TRUE HARRISBURG SPIRIT

NAVID KAUFMAN, whose depart
ment store was wiped out by fire
last evening. displayed the true
Harrisburg spirit when he an
nounced, before the firemen had
sounded the under control" signal,
that he had arranged for offices and
would open temporary stores within
the next few days.
1t is hard to see the fruits of years
of toll blotted out in an hour, but 1t is
harder still to stand up courageously
beneath the blow and resolve to begin
all over again. This Is the type that
has made America. 1t is the spirit
that survives all disaster. Every Har-
risburger will sympathize with MIR.

graduate him upon his enterprise.
