Bitter Fighting in Passes
of TransyIuania Mountains;
Expect Winter to Save Them

London, oct. II. = The latest dis
patches from Bucharest show that
fighting of an extremely bitter char
acter is still going on in all the
Transylvanian passes. According to
news dispatches the Rumanian retreat
from Pennsylvania was chiefly due to
the heavy guns of the Austro- Germans
which outranged the Rumanian artil-
lery.
Military experts direct attention
chiefly to the Predeal and BuXen
passes, the former leading directly to
the valuable oil fields of Prahova val
ley while the latter is the road to the
important railway junction of Buxen
connecting Bucharest with Northern
Rumania and Russia. In neither of
these passes have the invaders made
any serious headway as vet.
Bucharest dispatches generally regard
the situation optimistically. They
point out that it is only necessary for
the Rumanian forces to hold out a
short time before the cold weather
sets in.

Harrisburg Library
Doing Excellent Work

Contributors to the Harrisburg Pub
lie Library last night heard reports of
the work of the institution i'm the last

annual meeting held at the new build
ing at Front and Walnut streets Will
liam a. Boil presided at the meeting and
the election was conducted by Thomas
Il. Wierman and George A. Gorgas. ID.

The reports submitted showed a
notable extension of the work of the
Library in the last year and that in
spite of it's limited income the Library
has attained a circulation which com
pares very favorably with that of much
larger institutions, while its work among
school children has attracted notice in
other cities. The figures show that the
circulation of books for the two years
and nine months ending September 80
was 30S,O90. For the first year it was
102,126: the second 11l,110, and for
the nine months ending October 80,
94,S54. Registration showed, first year,
$50; second, 11,S74, last nine months.
1907. The library opened in 1914
with approximately 5000 books in cir
culation. In that year slightly more
than 1000 were added, the next year
somewhat less than 1000 books were
added, while at present the total is ap-
proXimately 1875 books.
The circulation of books during the
first year was at the rate of $50 per
month; for the second, 9,259 while for
the nine months just ended they were
circulated at the rate of 10.540 a month.
At last nights meeting ID. Bailey

AMATO DELIGHTS
LARGE AUDIENCE
Master of Song, Ably Assisted,
Opens Keystone Concert
Course
BY John w. Phillips


1t Is often very difficult for the
average concert goer to discriminate
between the mediocre and the good.
In listening to lot of songs-entirely
out of the ordinary-never heard be-
fore, and sung in a foreign tongue,
the hearer has no easy task in judging
both the quality of the music and the
performance OF it.
Tone quality could be discussed ad
infinitum. There are those who are
satisfied with pretty voice, shallow and
artificial bu tfiattering to the ear;
others prefer the noisy voice, mistak-
ing Il for dramatic ability and in
matter of vocal chords, Only a sur
gical operation could change the vocal
chords (the inStrumenO. The instru-
ment lies between the brain and the
heart, and these are the elements that
change, that play on the instrument.
The greater their wisdom. maturity
and experience, the finer the tone and

of vision, beauty and proportion. Pas
quale Amato brought to us last night
a program of songs that were strang-
ers to most us. English translations,
of course, were furnished but it is
greatly-very greatly-to the credit of
song-each' group-intelligently and
with unmistakable appreciation.
Mr.. Amato brought to us pictures
and stories, some gay, some sorrow
full. from foreign lands, and gave us
TO understand that our foreign breth-
rem can still outdo us in creating songs
of tenderness. passion or war; that
their impulses, emotions and heart
throbs are deeper rooted than ours;
that theri spirituality U say this i'm
spite of the war; and reverence for
the higher and nobler ideals is still
the magic that lights the way. Mr..
Amato was in good voice, and aroused
great deal of genuine enthusiasm.
His resonant, powerful voice, always
under control, swayed and thrilled and
Soothed at will. His French diction
was excellent, although he was not SO
happy with his English.

Farm Values Increasing
DR.. Langdorf said that farmers did
considerable business with sale notes"

tensively carried on in addition to
crops. Farm values, he said were in
creasing in Cumberland county. He
made s per cent. net on q farm of
$50 ceres which farmed on shares

owners to sell to good tenant farmers
on liberal terms and he said that the
feeling on his own district was that
present facilities are sufficient.
