Famous Hotel.

The Commonwealth Hotel, the
Oldest in Harrisburg, and now oc
cupying a corner used for hotel
purposes since 1890. will go out
of business April l unless some
one will agree to lease it for a
year, which appears to be unlike
ly. The hotel is owned by the
Mccormick estate and has been
dry since 1904. The owners plan
to convert it into store rooms.
The Commonwealth and its pre-
decessors, the Washington, Jones
and Leland on the same site have
played a big part in Pennsylva-
MIA history from the days that
Washington had his headquarters
in the hotel on his way to the
Whiskey Insurrection. Lincoln
spent day there in a council on
his way to his Inauguration, and
as a result changed his route to
Washington. 1t was in the Com
monwealth that Nell Skinner and
Edgar Criswell were married.

for statewide prohibition of the
strictest nature.
Smith proposes a new article

ing for sale of vinous, spirituous.
malt or brewed liquors, or any
admixtures thereof, or any other
intoxicating liquor, for beverage
purposes. Manufac ture and
sale Of liquor for medical purpos-
es is allowed in the proposed
amendment.
1t is believed that this amend
ment will be passed by the house
and senate and that the people
of the state will be permitted to
vote on 1t.

The Ditch Digger.

In spite of all that can be said
about the honorable quality of all
labor, many people have always
regarded those who dig bitches
and perform other unspilled la
Dor, with some contempt. Of
recent years this work has been
largely done by non-English
speaking aliens. 1t was not so
many years ago that this type of
labor could be commonly had for
about 81. so a day.
Recent years have placed the
ditch digger in a more independ-
ent position. His wages in many
places have doubled. The war
has made raw labor scarce. The
man with energy and muscle
enough to handle pick and shovel
is not so common as he was. Our
native Americans do not like
manual labor, though they may
be earning less money somewhere
at clean handed jobs.
The new literacy test law
promises to make the ditch dig
ger even scarcer. Of course the
man who has energy enough to
leave friends and earn passage
money may have the grit to fit
himself to pass our new require
ments. But the new standard
must have some tendency to re-
duce the supply of raw labor.
Wherefore it behooves US to
feel a little more respect for the
ditch digger. He performs a
useful and toilsome task which
the rest of us are unable or not
willing to undertake. He is in a
position to get a higher price for
this disagreeable service, and he
will make farm, highway, and
construction work cost more.
1t seems incongruous to many
people that clergymen and teach
ers. who have spent good money
going through the schools, must
often earn less than the unskilled
laborer who never took the least
pains to educate himself. Possi-
bly, machinery may yet be devils
ed to fill the gap caused by scar
city of unskilled labor. Machines
are digging trenches in France,
why not machines also to dig our
sewers? But until this substitu-
tion can be made, we must all
pay the penalty of the general
inability or unwillingness to work
with our hands and delve in the
dirt.

Spelling Lesson Pleasant Pastim..

1t is a well-known truth that a
child learns more quickly through
the medium of play than through
dull hours of tedious instruction.
To make play of work is the en-
deavor of almost all really sue
cessful tutors of little tots. The
February Popular M e c h a n i cs
Magazine tells how a teacher in
one Of the public schools at Coll
umbus, Ohio, found a way of
making her pupils look anxious.
ly forward for the daily spelling
lesson. Her plan of teaching is
a most novel one and has proved
so effective that it has been ad-
opted by other instructors in the
elementary grades of the city's
schools. A telegraph key and
receiver are mounted on tn e
teachers desk. The children have
been taught the Morse code and
when a word is ticked off in dots
and dashes they inscribe the
characters on the blackboard and
then translate them. A varia-
tion of the routine is to have diff
ferent children tick out the dots
and dashes as words are pro-
nounced by the teacher.
