KELSEY To TELL Of
PALACES Of YUCATAN
Famous Architect VIII Relate
Thrilling Tale of Travels in
Fahnestock Hall Friday

Plans for the visit of Herbert Kel-
sey, the Philadelphia architectural en-
pert who recently returned from Yu-
catan and who will tell of his ex-
periences in the country of the Aztec,
in Fahnestock hall next Friday even
ing, were discussed this afternoon at
meeting of the board of governors of
the Pure Milk Society of Harrisburg
whose guest he will be. The board
met at the home of Mrs. John E. Fox
223 North Front street.
Mr.. Kelsey spent months not only
in the section of Mexico that has
been moaning under the burden of
revolution but also in that island-like
peninsula that juts into the Caribbean.
! These are the vacation resorts of the
weather. MeXicans from the capital.
While the architect went to Mex
leo and to Yucatan, for the purpose
of studying the ancient architecture of
the Indians that were old when Pi-
zarro was a youthful adventurer, he
had ample opportunity to observe eco
nomic and social conditions. Inciden-
| tally he brought back scores of inter
esting pictures and these will be
feature of the talk he will deliver in
| Fahnestock hall next Friday evening.
Not only will the great palatial resi-
dence of Wealthy Mexican in beau
tiful Merida be shown but the com
parison with the native hut in the
suburbs will be quantity drawn, and
this by the man who got n splendid
inside tip on Mexican architecture, all
sizes and kinds.
The proceeds of the talk will be de-
voted, of course. to the general fund
of the Pure Milk Soclety-the organi-
zation that makes it possible for the
baby of the needer family of Harris
hurS to get a share of properly pre-
pared food.
The list of patronesses is now be-
Ing prepared and will be announced
within a day or two.

THE MEDIUM-sIzED MAN

We are all inclined to look up to
the physically big man. not only Inter-
ally, but there is always a certain pre-
sumption i'm his favor that he must be
correspondingly strong. mentally. Peo-
pie make room for him; they attach
more importance usually to what he
saws than to the same words uttered
by an understood man. We uncon-
sciously picture in our minds the bayo-
net charge and storming of the trench
es as the work of large men. The
boy dreams of having a football ply
,sique and little sister worshlps her
big brother
other abilities being equal the
large man has a positive advantage
over the small man. And yet many.
if not the majority, of the great men
of the world have been only OF me-
dunn size, and not few even under
sized.
A certain large city in this country
had for years made it rule not to en-
ploy in it's fire department any but
large men, The result was a small
army of athletes which never failed
to cause a positive thrill whenever
they went on parade. They distinct
ly represented the day of physical
might.
For some years past the inventive
mind has been busy, and very success
fully, to produce apparatus which
never tires, and calculated to transfer
to a great extent the hard work from
muscle to machine. The evidences OF
this evolution may be seen In even
small towns everywhere, and now the
fire engine drawn by volunteers and
worked with handbrakes must be
looked for in museums of strange me-
hcanics of the past. In its place is
1.-The self-propelled gas-engined ma
chine. carrying its own hose hose
capable of highly effective work with
only two men; and ladder trucks by
means of which one small man manip-
lulating. some short levers can in few
seconds raise great ladders to dizzy
| heights or pour deluge of water into
ltenth-story windows while standing in
| the street below. Hence it has come
about that the man small OF stature
| but nimble of body and alert or mind
| Is not only the peer but often the SUI
perior OF the giant in build. There yet
remains some work for the big ath-
Iletes Lut II Is growing less, each year,
and lhe man whom nature has not en-
dowed with great physical strength is
coming into his own.-By III. II. Wind
sor, in the May Number of Popular
Mechanics Magazine.

Another Crack Shot Who Has Won
Championships at the Traps

In future shooting events in and
about Harrisburg the name OF Grover
Martin will be seen frequently among
the entries. This young shooter has
lately been making records at the
traps and a recent score was so
straight at live birds.
This week he won the championship
from Charles Bolan of Bressler. Boil
an has been on Martins trail for
sometime but has not been able to
beat the Harrisburger. When Bolan
claimed a former match after having
been given a two-bird handicap, Mar
tin issued o challenge.
Martin gave Bolan one bird and won
by score of 9 to 8. The young star
will now try competition with other
shots. Mr.. Martin is we'll known in
Harrisburg and vicinity. He is one
of Harrisburg's young Republican
workers. 1t is probable series OF
matches will be shot off between Mar
tin and other local shooters in the
near future.

Railroad Steel Orders
Ready in Two Weeks

In steel circles there is a feeling that
the Pennsylvania Railroads steel rail
order may be let within a couple of
weeks. Early in January the company
made inquiries for 10000 tons. To
date it has given contracts to six steel
companies for 1000, tons each, a total
of $4,000 tons. Each company was
to roll ] 900 tons according to old spe-
cifications. and 1000, according to re-
vised 1915 specifications. 1t is expected
that when the bulk of the order is
placed by the Pennsylvania, the price
will be more than S28 per ton, the
standard price for some years, because
of the more rigid specifications.
