FOOD AND FRUIT
CROPS ARE HARD
HIT BY STORMS
Central Pennsylvania Farm
ers Suffer Damage From
Hail, Wind and Rain

Considerable damage was caused
last night by the heavy thunderstorm
that swept this section of the coun-
try. While no heavy material dam
age was reported in the city and sub
urbs, farmers throughout Central
Pennsylvania report their crops suf-
tered from the storm ana hail.
In some districts heavy falls of
hail were reported, which cut to
pieces young cornstalks. In the sec
tions where hail was not reported
practically the same results were
caused by the heavy downpour of
rain. Washouts were frequent in
many of the country districts.
A large barn owned by w. l..
Rabuck, of near Shoop's Church, was
struck by lightning and completely
destroyed. The fire started shortly
after 9 o'clock and burned for al
most two hours. The total loss on
the building and implements will
probably be $4,000, covered by insur-
ance. All livestock was rescued.
The glare of the flames was seen for
miles.
Telephone communication, with
several out-of-town districts was
cut off.

Harrisburg Pastor Makes
Address at Lutheran
Convention at Chicago

Chicago, June 21.-Pennsylvania
delegates took a prominent part in
the convention of the Federated
Council of Lutheran Brotherhoods,
which ended it's sessions here late
yesterday. The council closed by re-
electing all it's old officers. The
closing address was made by the
Rev. L. c. Manages, of Harrisburg,
Pa.
This country has no greater ene-
N.Y." said the Rev. Mr.. Manages,
than the person who shouts at the
waving of the flag and then closes
his pocketbook and withholds the
giving of his own blood or the blood
of his son.
I'VE need something deeper and
nobler than ability to make the
eagle scream. I noticed in one of
the celebrations in the East a build
ing which had more flag decorations
on it than any other and from
which came the most shouts, but on
closer inspection I saw 1t was a sa-
loon. Does anybody imagine that
the saloon was really patriotic or is
it more likely the saloon was bid
ding for trader"
I'm these perilous times the
church must stop parading in eccle-
siastical regimentals and put on spir-
itual khaki and get to work"

Gardens Damaged and
Cellars Flooded BY
Series of Storms

Marietta, Pa, June 21.-Yesterday
afternoon terrific storm visited the
town and did considerable damage
1t was estimated that five storms
ragged in space of not quite an hour,
and when two of them met the worst
damage followed. The damage by
water and wind was great. Market
street from end to end resembled a
river, and at the eastern end water
came over lots and fields, flooded
houses and finally rushed on to the
river. At one place five feet of
street and pavement were washed
away, and in number of homes the
water reached the first floor and
ruined carpets, rugs, etc. The sew
ers were not large enough to carry
away the down9our and cellars are
full. Evans Creek, which flows
through Marietta, was up to the
street, and in its path chickens were
drowned and considerable damage
done.
A fine lot of $50 chickens belong
ing to Edward Lutz, along this
stream, were saved by Truman Sci
pie and Franklin Smith, who waded
them to safety. Limbs of trees were
blown against the houses, and wires
broken.
On the Fletcher farm a bolt of
lightning struck, but no damage fol-
lowed. In many places the roads are
torn up, making driving impossible.
Hail as large as marbles fell, and
with each storm they seemed to get
larger. Window panes were broken,
and in town many persons lost
chickens by drowning. The trolley
service was tied up for about three
hours from washouts.
Chickies Creek is overflowing its
banks, and men are watching the
bridge which spans it to prevent an
accident. ...... ...
At Maytown, aside from heavy
downpours of rain there was no
damage of any consequence. Several
trees were blown down and the roads
are washed. At cambridge and Ro-
VIENNA the creeks overfiowed their
banks and washed the gardens bad
ly. Fruit trees in many sections are
stripped of their branches, and vege-
tation suffered.

ures cannot be otherwise enforced. the
county officials have authority to re-
move cases of contagious disease from
private residences and other places
to the hospital.
Should the county commissioners
decide to build a hospital it would
provide proper isolation for serious
contagious disease cases, not only
from Harrisburg and Steelton, but
from all the other borough and small
or towns in the county, the health
officials pointed out.
Medical men of the city and county
for years have advocated the estab-
lishment of sanitary hospital for
contagious disease cases to prevent
the spread of a serious epidemic

Since the 5th day OF June the word
Stacker" has been applied to those
who. of the proper age, failed to reg

But Il would be well for the general
public to get awake TO the fullest
meaning and significance Of the term.
Today II means all those who, hav-
ing registered and being in proper
physical condition, are now trying TO
eyade the call to service by trumpng
up excuses for exemption.
Then there are some other slack
ors." There are the strong, vigorous

years OF age, and the more mature
men thirty-one TO forty years OF age,

ne could whip the world, and these
are the food slackers. This kind OF
Stacker includes those who could con-
tribute 20 the food supply by garden

ing. II also includes those who are
wasteful OF food in the home; and
waste includes throwing away scraps
OF food, overlooking the table or over
loading the stomach.
So. in the last analysis. the term
"slacker" can be applied with great
er or lesser force to pretty much the
whole people. II Is time for self an
