ARE LEAVING CITY
Hear Address on '"The Refor-

at Closing Session

The Reformation Task OF To-day
was the subject of an able address
by the Rev. DR.. D. B. Smith, pastor
OF the Easton Lutheran Church and
formerly pastor of the Lutheran
Church at Hummelstown. before the
East Pennsylvania Synod OF Evangel-
icaI Lutheran Churches at the closing
session in Zion Lutheran Church last
evening.
The interval between the sixteenth

many changes. The new activities.
new sciences and a new tendency to
turn toward material things have
.been responsible for turning thought
from the Bible" said DIR. Smith.
The Bible must be returned to the
place which God intended that His
word should OCCUPY. declared DR..
Smith. Another phase of the Refor-
nation task of to-day is to take the
story of Jesus Christ to the utter
most parts of the world Emphasis
must likewise be placed upon the nee
essity for distinctly religious educa-
tion. declared DR.. Smith. The home
fails in its duty in giving children
the religious training; the schools are
prevented from teaching the Bible.
Accordingly, the necessity is placed
upon the church. The Lutheran
Church has stood at the forefront in
educational matters for many years.
The Lutheran Church was born in a
university, and in the opinion of DR..
Smith, religious training of children
must occupy larger share OF atten-
tion from the church than ever be-
fore. Excellent music was a feature
of the evening service.
Following the address, n reception
was given in honor of the visitors.
The men of Zion Lutheran Brother
hood were hosts for the occasion. An
orchestra provided music, and re-
freshments were served Addresses
were made by the Rev. ]. F. Hart
man, of Philadelphia; the Rev. Fuller
Bergstresser, of Middletown; the Rev.
A. Nj. Stamets, of this city, and the
Rev. G. n. Lauffer. of Steelton.
Many of the delegates left Har-
risburg last night, but large num-
ber of those who have been in the
city since Monday to attend the ses-
sions of the convention will leave for

7. RS SPEECHES
CLEAR WAR AIR
Congress Looked to Former
President in His Playing
of Copperheads

Washington, Oct 5.-The smash
ing blows Colonel Roosevelt has
dealt copperheadism in his trip
through the Middle West have had
the effect of making the atmosphere
here in the nations capital a whole
lot clearer. Once in a while con-
gresham runs counter to the pro-
nounced sentiment of his state, but
the average member is figuring on
getting close to his people back
home. When for months the La
Follettes and the Gronnas and the
copperheads in Congress have per-
sistently fought the war and adver-
tised their position as representing
the sentiments of the people "bacl
home" Congress naturally had be
gun to wonder whats was wrong il
some of the Middle West states. They
saw and heard little contrary to wha
the copperheads were saying in Con
gress.
Colonel Roosevelt's trip to Mis-
souri,, Wisconsin, Minnesota and tn
other states that have had misrep
resentation in Congress accordingl.
was watched with more than usua
interest. If it had been the windul
of a national political campaign, tn,
politicians in Congress could nc
have studied and analyzed the re
ports of his speeches and his meet
ings closer to judge the effect ol
the people. They were not interest
cd in Roosevelt-they were in hov
the people felt about the war. Colo
mel Roosevelt was the first nationa
character to invade the homes o
copperheads. Needless to say, IN
did not mince words nor leave an!
doubt of the issue. The response ha:
been to give many here an entirely
different idea of sentiment out West
Also his speeches have focused at
tention on members of Congress who
have been disloyal at a time wheT
Congress itself had begun to get ir
q mood to call names.

CHILDISLUNCHI IS
IMPORTANT NOW
School Days Bring New Prob
lens For the Mother of
The Family

A school days warning to mothers
and those having to do with prepa.
ration of luncheons for children is
given by DR.. Samuel G. Dixon. State
Commissioner OF Health. in a talk
on care of the youngsters.
DR.. Dixon says:
Let us imagine that in the aver
age household where the necessity of
protecting children's health during
school days is recognized, the moth
er has, as was described last week.
begun her day with the children by
assuring herself in the midst of the
morning greetings that each child is
apparently WELL and 1t Is, therefore,
safe for her little flock to associate
with each other and go to school to
mingle with their mates without be-
ing a menace to the health of their
comrades.
Now it is the duty of the mother
or guardian to see that her child or
children are clean both In body and
clothing before starting for school.
Food prepared at home must be
provided for the lunch or the child
directed what to eat or where to get
! it during the recess at school.
Il The luncheon should contain a lit
tie meat; then there should be some
white bread, potatoes, or starch; and
In addition a little fat, preferably
good butter or cream, or a little
piece of toast with q teaspoonful of
olive or white cottonseed oil.
i The diet should be varied from
time to time and should always con-
tain some meat or beans, some
starch and some rat; the latter,
however, not fried or cooked until
1T is crisp. Overlooked fat will often
produce an acid condition of the
stomach which interferes with di-
/ gestion.
If the child is to get lunch at
some restaurant 1t must be instruct
ed where to go and what to eat. If
the lunch is made up at home 1t
should be wrapped in clean new pa
per, or If that cannot be had, in a
clean napkin.
The child should be carefully in
structed not to place food with other
children's or to buy candy, ice
cream, cake or any food from the
street peddlers that are constantly
hanging around many of our schools
in the towns and villages to sell the
children indigestible ana often dirty
or even, in fact, infected foodstuffs.
The child must be thoroughly i'm
pressed with the necessity of wash
Ing its hands before eating and new
er expose the food to flies.
Each child should be furnished
with Its own drinking cup and in
structed never to loan 1t under any
circumstances.
The pencils and penholders should
never be, traded or loaned.
Let the mothers and teachers re-
member that health is first and edu-
cation second. Education is of little
luse to the sick or the dead.
