Who Cares if You Don't
Go Home Till Morning

After Harrisburg's newest industry
is well on its feet. 1t will make little
difference If you don't get home till
morning-so far as solving the early
morning problem of inserting latch
key that is too big into keyhole that
is too small, or vice versa.
Max II. Hite says he has arranged
to open a plant in the near future
whereby the violet Ray Enamel"
Company can do business. This manu-
factures product which gives out
clean violet ray, according to Mr..
Hite and can be operated on door
knobs, plates. electric buttons, auto

Episcupalians May Omit
Prayer For All InGdels

New York, Sept. ia proposal to
omit from the prayer book of the
Protestant Episcopal Church prayers
for Jews, Turks infidels and heretics
will be submitted to the Episcopal tri-
ennial general convention to be held in
st. Louis in October. The proposed
changes are approved by the special
commission on the revision of the
prayer book.
The proposal to eliminate the Jews
from Episcopal prayers is based on the
ground that it is an insult to class
them with infidels and heretics The
purpose in striking out the Turks from
the prayers is to avoid confusing them
with Mohammedans. The prayer ais
proposed reads: Have mercy upon all
who know Thee not as revealed in the
gospel OF Thy Son."
