Summer Rules
(Kansas City Star

Nearly every newspaper in the coun-
try has been giving advice on how To
get on in the hot weather. Summed
up and boiled down it amounts to
this:
Wear thin, loose clothing. Don't eat
too much meat, but eat substantial
Strengthening food; it is unwise to get
weak from lack of nourishment. Drink
plenty of pure water. not iced. but
cooled. Battle morning and night sc
the effects of perspiration will be re-
moved, and the pores cleansed. Don't
hurry. Don't worry. Keep interested in
other things so you needn't center your
attention on the heat. Smoke less than
usual. Don't drink any alcoholic slim
ulant. Get plenty of sleep-out OF
doors If possible"
A score or two Of the best doctors
in the country, expressing themselves
in as many different newspapers in the
last week, agree that an observance OF
these simple directions will carry any
person of ordinary sound body safely
through the warmest summer.

Dear Sir, We Demand to Know

4
| The open letter season is now on.
/ The open letter differs from the closed
| letter in that it is addressed 70 . per-
son the writer does not know, and,
further is sent to the newspapers in
stead OF to the person to whom it is
| addressed.
! The season was formally opened
| with an open letter to Mr.. Hughes
/ from a committee of DISTINGUISHED
American writer's" who did not like
Mr.. Hughes's speech accepting the Re-
[ publican nomination for President
I set some-that is, he will learn from
| the papers that letters have been ad-
[ dressed 20 him. Wherever men gather
who ind that they agree approximately
| on being for Mr.. Hughes they will ad-
/ dress an open letter to Mr.. Wilson ask
/ ing number OF questions in the form
I or an argument and incloSing no re-
! turn address for reply. And wher-
I ever men gather who find they agree
/ approximately on being for Mr. Wilson
they will address an open letter to Mr..
! Hughes demanding to know what he
means.
Just as matter Of curiosity it would
/ be interesting 10 know If these open
/ letters really are mailed. Do the
writers put 4 '1-cent stamp on them
! and drop them in the letter box at the
same time they forward a copy to the
] press W len olStlngulSned writers or
/ distinguished bakers, or potters, or tin
smiths, or boilermakers, in convention
/ assembled, decide, when all other busi-
| ness Is over, 10 write an open letter
I 10 candidate for the presidency. and
do write it and pass it around for
signatures, and il is read by the secre-
tary amid applause and il is voted to
send II 10 the press, and everybody
/ reaches for his hat to go home, does
anybody ever stop them as they are
/ making for the door and say: Wait a
minute, boys, ought we TO send this
/ letter to the candidate or just let him
/ ind out from the newspapers that we
are demanding. a reply to forty-seveA
. questions?" II would be interesting to
know If anybody ever thought OF that
little detail. and If so what information
I on the ethics OF the case the meeting
was possessed CT
There is something prankish about
an open letter, as OF a small boy who
rings a door he'll and runs. In the
l case of the distinguished American
writers there is something more than
| prankishness, there is something of
calculation-when they ring the bell
and run they wait around the corner,
too, not too much concealed from the
neighbors who stick their heads out
the windows. Distinguished Ameri-
can writer's know the value of adver-
tisins space and Of being seen and
identified at their open letter writing.

HARRISBURG CHURCH CENTER.

COLLECTION OF Harrisburg as the
y headquarters for a high official Of
the Lutheran Church in competi-
ton with many other cities is another
evidence OF the central position this
city holds with relation to the State AT
large. Not only the Lutheran Church
has recognized this advantage in Har-
risburg, but many others This is the
see city for the Episcopal and Roman
Catholic dioceses OF Harrisburg. Here
also are located the publishing houses
and Offices of many OF the heads OF
the United Evangelical Church and
the Church of God, and for many
years the district superintendents OF
the Methodist Church have had their
homes here. The State Y. N. c. 4.
also has headquarters in Harrisburg;
several denominations maintain Offices
here. The city's religious activities
match up very well with its Industrial
enterprises, and it is we'll that this is
so, for the two should go always hand
in hand for the development of a
happy. prosperous. peaceful and Cod
fearing community.

Seeing Pennsylvania First

We motored on the hill road
Where sky and tree-tops greet,
( The sun was never brighter,
And, Q, the air was sweet!
{ The earliest breath of frost-time
Had touched the tenderest trees,
And just tings of autumn chill
Was in the west-born breeze.
Below US in the valley
a hundred farms Joined hands;
A hundred homesteads mothered
The fenced and brook-bound lands,
I And many a fresh-plowed acre
Was white with new-spread lime,
I IL looked as IL the snowman
Had come before his time.
[ The cutters in the cornhelds
They made q sWishing sound,
And where the shocks were tented
The punkins spread around
Were thick as stars up in the sky
And rich as sunset glow
I never saw a finer sight
Than one field down below.
/ II was grand encampment
OF tall and yellowed corn
I And every veteran punkin there
/ Was like the sun at morn
I and two strong horses plowing
Across a nearby field
/ Were thinking. I am certain,
or the food these tents would yield!
{.
/ Along the ridge we saiId through dust
! And past a lighthouse tall
/ An old and white and pointed spire
/ Topped by golden BALL
And through a clean-swept, sleepy
town
And past a tavern door
We coasted to a covered bridge
Close by country store.
Now, Summer IS girl love,
She charms me with her blaze
OF flowers and fruit-hlId bowers
own
I like her generous ways,
But IL you let me choose from all
think I'd take for mine
Sweet Autumn with her tented fields
And air like sparkling wine.

Silent Partners Sayings

If you want to locate an ambitious
young man. some chap whom yoS
would make foreman or manager. gf
over to the poolroom about two o'clock
In the afternoon. and find him-not.
You may have your Packard. your
painted lily, your gilded gold; but
give me two-mile drive with an old
fashioned girl on top Of a load of new
mown hay.
One pound of preparedness, one
ounce Of getting ready, one grain of
good, sound thinking, are worth a
ton of correcting mistakes. Think
ahead of your work.
When waste time or thought on
my enemies, I ind the exercise costs
me more than one would think. The
plan keeps me from dwelling on some
one who might help. In other words,
my prospects for progress are being
stalled while 'muliing" over my ene@
mics.

MEANS MICH TO CITY

TINE new freight station of the
Pennsylvania railroad, contract
in the sum Of $3.50, 900 for which
was let yesterday, means much to Har-
risourg. The station should have been
built years ago. II would have been
built had it not been for the petty
objections of selfish interests which
were placed in its way. But 1t will be
ready for use soon, so by-gones may
be forgotten while the shippers Of the
city rejoice in their good fortune.
More and more Harrisburg is be-
coming. to use the phrase adopted by
the Chamber OF Commerce, a Heart
of Distribution" and through its
freight depots flows the lfe-blood of
thousand industries. The Reading
long ago modernized its freight yards
here and the big improvements to be
