AN ERA OF DEVELOPMENT

THERE is every indication that
Harrisburg is on tho eve Of a
great industrial development. In
the past few months the Pipe and
Pipe Bending Company has greatly
enlarged it's plants and its business
is going ahead by leaps and bounds,
the Bethlehem Steel Company will
erect four new blast furnaces at
Steelton and greatly increase capacity
there, the Reading Railway is en-
larging its yards and shifting facilities,
the Cumberland Valley is building a
great new concrete bridge across the
Susquehanna and double tracking its
line out of the city, and the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company is about
to take bids for the completion of
it's freight station in this city. Other
industries have been going forward
rapidly and it would surprise nobody
to hear of extensive developments at
the Central Iron and Steel Company's
plants in the near future. Contrac-
tors are busy and the building trades
are active Harrisburg will grow
very rapidly in the next few years.
All this shows how wise were those
who pinned their faith to Harrisburg
some fifteen years ago, when hold
backs" tried to defeat the big public
improvement plan then Just in the
course of formation. Not only have
those improvements paid for them
selves over and over, but. they have
made possible the future develop
ment of the city along right lines. In
stead of struggling up into a great.
overgrown country town, Harris
burg has been carefully and har-
moniously building FOR the future. 1t
possesses the substantial foundations
upon which the beautiful structure of
the future may be erected. We are,
in short, ready for the industrial
growth that those farsighted advocates
of public Improvements were looking
toward when they put the million dol
lar loan through away back in 1901.

THE SUNDAY WALK

TIME Spring days are coming, when
merely to be in the open is u
delight. Already a brave little
bluebird here and there is chirping out
his cheerful song and in sunny spots
the grass is beginning to shoot, While
the lilac buds are showing green, the
golden bell displays signs of life. the
whole atmosphere is beginning to
breathe new life despite the abysmal
depths to which the mercury has been
dropping the past week. To walk
briskly forth when the birds are be-
ginning their mating songs and the
plant world to shoot its leaves is a joy
in itself. Don't say to yourself, "Oh,
yes. all that is very well for the man
of leisure. but 1 am too busy" Chuck
the job and so when spring gets into
your blood.
At least you have Sunday to your
self. and you remember that "a walk
with father used to be one of the
events of the Sabbath when you were
a boy. If you cherish no such recol-
lection, you have missed something,
for there is no richer gem in the
casket of memory than that Sunday
afternoons ramble into the open with
the one we in our youthful trust
looked up to as the most wonderful
man in all the world. He knew where
the flowers bloomed first. where the
birds nested, when the berries ripened,
and all the trees and plants and in
sects and animals held no secrets
from him. The skies were bluer in
those days than they ever have been
since. The air was balnier and the
sun was brighter. You drank in health
and contentment and love and knowl-
edge at every step. 1t was a great
occasion, that Sunday afternoon walk
with father. and it has been q helpful
influence in your life ever since, even
though the guiding hand of that stall
wart companion of youthful rambles
may long since have lain folded over
the silent breast.
WeIl--you who have a boy OF your
own-are YOU going to be less a father
10 him than your father was to you ?
If you are too busy to think of your
own welfare. think of his.
