spiration. The towns and
cities where these festivals
have been held are loud in
their praise and say that it is
making good on this great
program.
BY concentrating the twelve
performances into three days
it is possible to make a much
greater impression than if Il ey
were given one every few
weeks extending over many
months. and in addition it does
not cost our town one-half as
much.
This chautauqua will give
our people larger vision Of
individual and social life.
There will be discussed and
set forth in this program the
great constructive forces Of
civilization, the great achieve
that the human race
has made up to the present
time and some OF the great
problems that are now be-
fore the world for solution.

visions and higher ideals, 1t
ought to make for cleaner
streets and yards, better
santa ton, the development of
more beauty spots in our
town and a wide awake public
spirit.
Out of it ought to grow a
permanent organization such
as a boosters Civic Club,
possibly also County Farm
Bureau. These would do much
to bring the town and the
surrounding country into
much closer fellowship. Most
of all we should de-
eide to make the chautauqua
an annual event. Join hands
with the public spirited men
OF our town who have become
guarantors and workers to
bring this here. Be boosters,

the meetings and help to
make it a great success, this
year, next and the years fol-
lowing.

A Boost For Our Town.

There is a new spirit in the
world. 1t is the spirit of
democracy, the spirit Of get
ting together, the spirit Of
cooperation. This spirit is
finding expression in small
groups, in clubs and lodges,
in unions and declarations and
in a growing spirit OF unity
among the churches. 1t is
beginning to seek embodi-
ment in terms of a civic
consciousness, in better nat
ional unities and in world
policies.
Because OF the isolation
aud individualisrn of the
smaller towns and cities this
spirit is slow in finding means
of expression. The smaller
towns are social : unItes OF
great Importance, in some
respects OF more Importance
than the larger cities. The
strongest and most aggressive
men of the cities have come
from the country or the
smaller towns. The greatest
men in the professions, the
greatest leaders in politics and |
state craft, in industry and
commerce have come from the
country or smaller towns.
The greatest man whoever
lived came from the little
town of Nazareth.
It is possible to make these
smaller towns places OF greater
influence and power.
The old method of improv-
ing a town was to get some
man of wealth and public
spirit to give it a fountain,
donate a monument or put up
a library. These are all inn
portant but it is far more inn
portant to do things that will
develop a public spirit, a!
spirit of unity and furnish an
opportunity and a channel
through which this spirit may
be expressed Tor the common
good.
The first problem of these
smaller towns is to see them
selves and their needs clearly.
The greatest object OF their
citizens should not be to
get as many dollars as they
can and to keep them as long
as they can, but to build the
best town they can and to
produce the best type of boys
girls, men and women, the
best churches and schools,

GREAT SUCCESS
Endorsed by Leading Druggist

Amolox, the new remedy for eczema
and all diseases of the skin, is curing
thousands of eczema sufferers that have
been unable to find relief after trying

one weeks treatment that hair stopped
falling out, scalp was rapidly healing

starting. Quoting the exact words of
the doctor, "That Amolox is great
stuff"
Amolox when applied to the skin stops
all itch and burning instantly. Will cure
eczema and all skin troubles and will
clear up a muddy complexion, or pim-
pies on face in "a hours.
All sufferers from eczema, salt rheum,
letter, acne, barber's itch and pimples
on the face should go to their druggists
at once and get bottle of Amolox
and box of ointment. If you are not
satisfied, it will not cost you a cent.

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take Glass Of Salts to Flush Kidneys
If Bladder Bothers You-Drink
Lots Of Water

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says a well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts Of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic
twinges, severe headaches, acid stom-
ach, constipation, torpid liver, sleep
lessness, bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for genera
tions to flush clogged kidneys and stim-
ulate them to normal activity; also to
neutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
disorders.
Jad Salts cannot iniure anyone |;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.-Adv.

MANY Will HEAR RAYMOND
Hundreds Have Procured Tickets for
Business Talks at Tech Au-
ditorium

Four hundred tickets to the "Mak-
ing Good in Business talks of Frank
Jewel Raymond to be given by the
Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce on
February 10, 23 and % were taken at
a meeting of the committee in charge
OF the matter yesterday afternoon. AS
this represented about seven per cent.
of the membership of the Chamber of
Commerce, Chairman A. w. Moul felt
confident that the seating capacity of
any auditorium in Harrisburg would be
taxed. The Harrisburg Chamber of
Commerce is requesting the entire mem
bership to make known at once the
number Oft tickets that can be taken bv
each member or firm. The many live
firms, members Of the Chamber of Com
merce, are endeavoring to have every
one of their employees who either sells
has or the firm services or its COM
modities present at all the talks.
The committee announced that the
price of the coupon ticket for the three
talks would be seventy-fve cents to
members of the Chamber of Commerce,
their employees and families. The price
to non-members of the Chamber of
Commerce, etc., will be fifty cents per
night or $3.50 for the series.
The talks will be given in the au-
ditorium of the Technacl High school,
as they are of an EDUCATIONAL nature
and since no other, auditorium in the
city provides enough seating space.
Every branch of business and indus
try of the city was represented at the
meeting ON the 2Sth which was ad-
dressed by Mr.. Raymond and all of
them stated that he would benefit them
and their people. For instance, the
Moorhead Knitting Company has en-
gagged Mr.. Raymond at their expense,
to give a special talk to suit their line
of business. Other industries are also
considering engaging Mr.. Raymond for
that purpose while he is in Harrisburg.
But the general membership of the
Chamber and others who cannot afford
to spend several hundred dollars for
these nationally famous talks are giv-
EN- the opportunity to hear Mr.. Ray
mond by payment of a charge that is
merely designed to be enough to guar
antee that those who come have a
genuine interest in the matter.

SERIOUS Aspects
IN German move
Continued From First Page.

at the Cabinet meeting to-day, in the
latter s absence
Neither the State Department nor
the German embassy had received the
latest Berlin admiralty statement to-
day and it was said at the German en-
bassy that the Berlin Foreign Office
probably would deliver copies to diplo-
matte representatives in Berlin and re-
gard that notice as sufficient. Yester-
days proclamation is an extension of
a former one delivered by Ambassador
Gerard, applying to the north and west
coasts of France.
There is no precedent in dealing with
the question, because heretofore sub
marines have played no important part
in warfare and all of the rules of inter
national law are framed with special
reference to ordinary ships. The ordi-
nary practices in taking prizes and
dealing with the merchantships of an
enemy which it is not feasible to take
as prizes are clearly set out and estab-
lished by long usage. The merchantmen
must be halted boarded and either
made prize or sunk. But in the latter,
crew and passengers must be taken off.
While it was noted that the procla-
nation was directed against "enemy
ships" and applies to neutral ships only
when the attacks "were meant for
enemy ships" through suspicion of
misuse of neutral flags, officials express
ed grave concern over the implied
threat to sink merchant vessels probab-
ly without warning or taking off nom
combatant passengers and crews.
During consideration of the subject
by the State Department American
marines probably will be expected to
heed the German warning and enter
forbidden waters only at their own
risk, precisely what they have been do
ing in the North Sea since notices sew.
eral month ago from both the British
and German governments, that owing
to the planting of mines, it would be
regarded as within the war zone.
The notice from the British govern
ment that it is contemplating retalia-
tion against German trade, though not
formally, before the State Department
to-day, has given rise to much expecta-
tion on the part of officials as to what
the British have in mind Although it
has been denied that any official decla-
ration that food supplies are contraband
has been issued, it is believed that the
British notice forecasts the speedy is
sue of some such declaration. And in
addition to thus trying to cut off Ger
many's food supply by water, it is be-
lieved to be possible that the British
may make the blow more severe by
prohibiting the transportation of cot.
ton to Germany. Cotton is a base of
some forms of smokeless powder as well
as the high explosive gun cotton used
in the war heads of torpedoes and sub.
marine mines.

BRONCHIAL COUGHS

When the bronchial tubes are af-
fected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and SEN
sible treatment. The breath seems
shorter because Of mucous obstruc-
tons; usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the inflamma-
ton often spreads to the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years-is SCOTS Emul-
sion. 1t drives out the cold, which
is the root of the trouble, and checks
the cough by aiding the healing
process of the enfeebled membranes.

member that Scott's Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble.
