His name is Philo Gubb. He took ten lessons from the Rising Sun Correspondence School in the art of detecting.

He has had many most wonderful ex- periences, which are being chronicled from week to week in the Illustra- ted Magazine of The New York Sun day World. This humorous charac- ter was created by Ellis Parker But Ter, author of Pigs Is Pigs" Don't miss one of his Imaginable adventures. Order The Sunday World in advance. --adyt.

St. Mary's Church.

Rev. George J. Donahue delivered a remarkable sermon at the masses in St. Mary's church yesterday morn ing, likening the growth of the Ro- man Catholic church to that of the mustard seed referred to in the gos- pei of the day. Since coming to St. Mary's church, Father Donahue has proved himself to be an orator in all the word signifies but he was never more eloquent, never moro forceful than yesterday. Father Don- ahue traced the expansion of tho church from the time of the birth of Christ to the present day and said that its successive triumphs in spite of prosecutions and almost daily op- position proved it to be divine and the work .of the Creator. The ser- mon was the topic of conversation in many Catholic homes during the day and all who were fortunate enough to hear it classified 1t as one of the m ost able ever delivered in St. Mary's church.

GOVERNOR TAKES
WEEK-EN AWAY
Spending the Day at His Home in
Germantown and viii Attend
Clubs Dinner
PREPARING THE B
They Will Be Made Ready For
Early Introduction; Big Rush
For State Offices

Governor Brumbaugh is spending
the weekend at his home in Phila-
delphia and with exception of a few
heads of departments who are here
working on reports or on legislative
matters the State Capitol is showing
it's customary Saturday appearance.
The Governor will not return to Har-
risburg until Monday about noon when
he will resume his consideration of
legislation.
The Governors Office mailbag has
been iammed with letters the last four
or five days, applications for places by
the hundreds having been made to
him. These applications come from all
parts of the State and their number
has been a surprise even to people on
Capitol Hill accustomed to the rush
for places when an administration
changes.
For the present it will be the plan of
the Governor to spend his week-ends
in Philadelphia except when he has
other engagements. Secretary of the
Cyrus E. Woods, who
has taken residence here, will re-
main here practically all of the time.
While bills will be introduced in
both houses of the legislature on Mon
day night, none of the administration
measures Will be ready. Ihey are IN
the hands of Attorney General Brown
and his staff who are going over them
in advance of their submission to the
Governor.
A big rush of prospective legisla
ton is anticipated as the State Legis
lative Reference Bureau has been at
work for weeks ON the final drafts of
bills sent to it by members. A num-
Der of appropriation bills are due to
appear Monday night.
Chairman James L. Woodward, of
the House appropriations committe. is
already working on estimates of fin
ances and studying the requests for
consideration. He has named as
secretary A. B. Smith, of Steelton,
who has served in that capacity for
several sessions

Dodge Brothers Car
Meets With Approval

Robert l.. Morton, manager of the
Keystone Motor Car Company, in
speaking of the reception accorded the
new Dodge Brothers car, said it eX-
ceeded his expectation from every
standpoint. II believe that it COM
pares in appearance, power and quality
with the thousand dollar cars. In
fact, have had it aside of some cars
near the thousand dollar figure and L
consider that the Dodge had two hun
dred and fifty dollars more car than
the other. AS our allotment is limit
ed to fifty cars the first year, ] have
no doubt but what the entire lot will
be sold before March is past.
THE car was driven from Lancas-
ter here and tests made on the Derry
street and Reresvoir Park hill, and
every conceivable tryout that is GUS
tomary to prove the worth and
smooth-running qualities, and to say
that ] am enthused with it's perform
ance is putting it mildly"
"Of all the cars that ever have been
projected into the automobile world,
Dodge Brothers motor cars appeal in
surroundings that are at once most
extraordinary and promising. In the
very zenith of career of % years as
Dodge Brothers, John r. and Horace
t., closed out an automobile parts pro-
duction enterprise involving contracts
worth million and a half dollars q

facturers in their own right. But in

STORY RITEN'
BY the Messenger Boy

What / objeck TO most about this

goes off at 5.15 a. m. because the edi-
Ter ordered the practice story in the
once at Z o'clock for to set it up and
read proof. and / have to rite the thing
IN the morning because I think it Ip
nj ped; which is all a lie about the
edlter wantin' to see it at Z O'Clock
because he don't get there before $40
as he is lazy and stays in bed till day-
light. If this keeps up three years l
don't know where I'll be by that time.
but L guess I'll continue because time
and patience'll take snail to Jerusa-
lem, so Iley Snicklefritz says that
works over at the soda fountain: and
l want to learn to be reporter bv
practicin' every day for three years
An alarm clock going off in the mid
die OF a dream is mean thing for
anybody and the only way to get over
II is TO set the thing ten minutes
ahead of the time to get up and then
you can lie there and half snooze n
while longer and think mean things
about the alarm clock and not havin'
to listen to 1t. The only thing is that
sometimes when you're doing that YOU
go off to sleep again and get in trou-
bic with the boss for not bein' there
on time which is troublesome if ken
up too often.

The women of the Red Cross are

scrape lint, but they tend the farms,
dig coal, carry burdens and do the
work of the men now under arms.
Every male fighter, however brawny
and heroic, was born of woman; the
high courage and hardihood that are
a nations strength are inherited from

be the means of the wounded and
suffering in European hospitals and
the war refugees.
Need Is Urgent
That the need is urgent is borne
out by the experiences of some of the
women workers who are earning a liv
ing through the medium of the work
it offers. One woman came to the
home relief department yesterday to
ask for work. She had enough at
home to maintain her own family,
she said, but had added another little
mouth to feed. A neighbor with six
small children was about ready to give
up in the struggle to make ends meet.
No work and no credit was Wrecking
the little home.
.If / can make 50 a week this win
ter" said the generous-spilrited wom
an, Il can keep this little one and
so tighten the burden of that fam
ily OF course she received the ma
terials the sewing of which would
permit her to do this kindly deed of
mercy. Half an hour later another
woman appeared with similar re-
quest-that she be given enough work
to allow her to aid a family next door,
in which there was sickness and want.
She, too, was given work.
Throughout the entire city there
are families which have been saved
the mental discomfort resulting from
becoming dependents upon organized
charity. If the work is continued
during the winter it will reuqire lib
eral contributions from those in a po-
sition to give. The money stays at
home Gods used are bought of local
merchants, are sewed into garments
by needy women of the city who are
paid for their work, and only the fin
ished garments are sent away, after
as many of them as are NEEDED are
given to the poor of this city.

CULTURE

Culture looks beyond machinery.
culture hates hatred; culture has one
great passion-the passion for sweet
ness and light. 1t has one even vet
greater. the passion for making them
all prevail. 1t is not satisfied till we
all come to a perfect man; it knows
that the sweetness and light of the
few must be imperfect until the raw
and unkindly masses of humanity are
touched with sweetness and light
