CHOOSE CAREFULLY

THREE school directors are to be
l. elected in Harrisburg next Tues
day. In the light of recent events
it behooves the voter to choose care
fully for whom he shall cast his bal
lot 1t would be regrettable if there
should develop next spring another
such fiasco as that which marked the
selection of High School architects
1t would be even more regrettable if
the High School building program
should be further marred by delay
and mismanagement. Voters should
scan the list of candidates carefully
in order that they may make no mis-
takes.
Too often the school board con-
tests are lost to sight i'll what are
regarded as the more important cleo
tions. In truth, there is no more i'm
portant local office than that of
school director. The opportunities for
good are so great and those for evil
so many in the school board that
the best judgment of the voter should
be exercised in seeing to it that only
men of sound judgment and unques-
toned integrity are elected.

Jap PARTICIPATION
Vancouver Sun. /

At the end of 1914 and the begin
ming of 1915, when the outlook SEEM
ed dark for the Allies, the French
press almost unanimously advocated
bringing the Japanese army to the
western front. The British papers
did not join in the agitation and ii
died out. Now, after two years, the
French newspapers are again urging
the Allies to induce the Japanese TO
send an army to Europe, but with
the difference that now they advo-
cate the employment of the Japan
ese forces on the Russian front. The
French papers argue that the AL
lies cannot afford to allow the Ger
mans to gain access to Russian gran
aries.
1t is strange that Russia, whose in
exhaustible manpower was looked
upon as the chief asset of the Allies
at the beginning of the war, should
need reinforcements to keep the en-
emy from overrunnlng her territory.
The great strength of tho Russian
bear, on which the Allies depended,
appears to have been a myth.
The Japanese army is not needed
on the western front now. If 1t were
needed 1t could not be transported
there and its wants supplied, for lack
of ships, But the Russian collapse is
a source of great concern to the Al
lies and IL is felt that the Germans
must be prevented from replenishing
their food stores from Russia. Also.
a Japanese army of a million men on
the Russian front would affect a
great change in the military situa-
ton in the east,

ing fault with the War Department
or the men who picked the camp
sites. 1t is cur business to stand
behind them, but while we are do
ing it we wonder why an already
prepared site, with ample railroad
facilities and a most salubrious
climate, was passed up.
The State has improved the roads
and connected up largely increased
cleared areas; doubled the water
supply; provided for additional
drainage; built more storehouses
and done everything that would be
necessary to care for 10000 men.
The War Department seemingly
does not need it, but some day Penn
sylvania will. Meanwhile the roads
are to be bordered by trees; paths
cut through woods; water supply
still further conserved by systematic
planting and tracts reforested. For
estry, Health, Water Supply and
other State Departments are all go
ing to cooperate with the military
in making it an ideal camp site to
whose advantages Washington may
some day wake up.

HELP THE HOSPITAL


Words from the pen of Otto II.
Kahn are not to be regarded lightly,
especially in these war times, when
the voice of the flnancier has become
the voice of the savlor-prophet.
When Otto II. Kahn, in his recent
book, says that to neglect local char
tiles and, instead to devote all of
ones time to war relief organizations
is a typical American crime, his
words are to be accepted as state
ments of one who knows what he is
talking about.
1t is q recognized fact that Harris
burg has been giving from her
abundance to the various war relief
associations. 1t Is also a recognized
fact that, in the past, she has not
been negligent in giving of her plenty
to local institutions. War times are
changed times, however, and the
common fault Is TO neglect the or
ganization or institution which helps
those at home.
The meeting of the Woman's Aid
Society of the Harrisburg Hospital
yesterday evening, was a meeting of
little place in the busy life of world,
but to those who read behind and
between the lines. it showed that
women of social prominence are Civ
ing Ineif time TO Lne work OIL local
institution of mercy. The Harrisburg
Hospital is deserving of support; 1t is
deserving of everything which can
be given for its help. The institution
which relieves the cries of pain and
anguish, which takes away the gloom
of sickness and brings in its place,
the happy glow of perfect health, is
an institution which is worthy of full
and enthusiastic support from every
citizen of Harrisburg.
To those who wish to help and
to serve their country in war times
there is granted an exceptional OPP
! portunity for they can be allowed to
contribute to the cause of humanity
| when their checks are sent to the
Hospital. 1t is Just as necessary to
conserve the health of civilians, as il
Is necessary to conserve the health
of the military officers and men, fol
| if this war is to be won, we must
have business as usual" That means
health as usual" A hospital is the
| foundation of health; it is the in
strument which conserves the man
supply of the nation by giving
prompt, careful treatment of disease
and suffering.

THE GANGS TENTACLEs"


II n the language of our Democratic
friends the Republican organi-
- zation is the Gang" When Il
voter processes Republican princi-
pies we are solemnly informed that
he has fallen into the "tentacles
of the Gang" Sounds awful doesn't
it? And when Il voter accepts n
days wages to serve as a Republican
watcher at the polls the act is con-
strued as aFcriminal offense, worthy
at least IN the penitentiary, albeit the
Democrats have as many paid watch
ers usually as the Republicans. This
mornin"> tho subsidized mouthDioce
or the Democratic bosses announces
long list of those who were Maid
Tor their services at the Republican
primaries. We notice that the
Gang tentacles" have extended into
the very heart of the office Of the
Patriot itself. Horrible. isn't it?
Perhaps it may be out of the way
for the Telegraph to offer the sra-
gestion that in view of certain Demo
cratic campaigns in Harrisburg and
pennsylvania, in which excessively
large amounts of money were ex-
pended, in educating the voter" the
organ of Democracy IS merely invit-
ing trouble for itself in criticisms too

OFFICIAL WAR SONGS

Uncle Sam appears in the role OF
inpresario to the extent that he has
prepared a collection of war songs In
a little book which he offers to men
in the camps at forty per cent dis
count from the regular price, 1t is
official but so far as learned (Mr.
Creel has not issued any ukase on
the subject) it is not definitive, APP
parently our boys may sing other
songs than those in the volume with
out coming under military discipline.
The book is quite as notable for
what IL does not contain as Tor It's
contents, One looks in vain for
yankee Doodle" in its pages, This
may be because that song is doggerel
and is valuable only when played by
n band, but as Yankee Doodle" Is
much appreciated in France, where
there is a general idea that it is our
National hymn, il is q pity not to
have it included. The same applies
to "Dixie." which the boys sing right
along, whether officially promul-
gated or not.
Most of the standard war-songs
are there, but not many which bear
on the Civil War in direct manner.
Marching Through Georgia is, per-
hans. one of the most popular of
these old time tunes, one of the Few
which have survived, but it is con-
spicuous by its absence from the Of
ficial book. There is also no Confed-
crate song on its pages, although for
the very good reason, no doubt, that
the conflict did not produce single
one of the slightest merit, certainly
none which even the South to-day is
anxious to recall.
The astonishing thing is that so
far this great war of 1914 has yet to
bring forth a song, or tune, of any
value. That it will eventually do so
seems certain, in which case Uncle
Sam will kindly oblige by getting out
a new on.-Philadelphia Bull
