WILL EXTEND
TIME BECAUSE OF
POOR SHOWING
Upper End Towns Are Eclips-
in City in Contributions
For Soldiers

Only S537.41 in actual money has
been turned in by the citizens of
Harrisburg for the library war fund.
This was stated this afternoon by
Miss Alice K. Eaton. librarian of the
Harrisburg Public Library and
leader in the local campaign. Har-
risburg has fallen woefully below the
mark set by the government as it's
allotment. Six thousand dollars was
the sum expected to be raised by the
campaign which was scheduled to
close tomorrow. Owing to the poor
showing that the city has made. the
time will be extended until the end
Of the week in the effort to make
the entire allotment.
The small towns in upper Dauphin
county, through the efforts of James
p. Lentz, recorder of deeds, have
responded wonderfully to the call
Williamstown sent $125: Wiconisco
s140; Lykens. $3.50, and Elizabeth
Vile, $50. These sums are above
The require allotment. The commit
lee in charge of the Lykeens cam
paign. which sent the largest amount
10 the local headquarters, were
Charles ]. Price, Jacob Bogar and
W. Walter Duncan.a Teachers of
ne public schoosl had charge of the

The sums that have been turned
m at the library are as follows:

REFUSE TOILET
PASTOR RESIGN
Market Street Baptist Congre-
cation Refuses to Let Rev.
Mr.. Dallman Go

At recent meeting of the Mar
ket Street Baptist Church the resig-
nation OF the pastor, the Rev. Wal
ter II. Dallman, presented Sunday
was not accepted and resolutions ia
voring reconsideration were passed
by the assembly.
Last Sunday at the regular serv-
lee, the Rev. Mr.. Dallman announced
to his parishiohers that owing to
the necessity of rest he was COM
PEELED to resign. He stated that the
strain of the work was beginning to
tell on his health, and he felt that
a rest of a few months would be
beneficial. A new position present
ing itself. which would not inter-
fere with his rest prompted the pas
tor to resign his post Sunday.
Has Made Strides
The Rev. Mr.. Dallman came to
Harrisburg four years ago and since
that time has been pastor of the
Market Street Baptist Church. Dur
ing his administration the church
has increased remarkably in mem
bership, the present number being
nearly double that when he first
came. The church has also been
placed on firm financial basis. One
of the features of his four years
work in this city has been his teach
ing and pulpit work. He is regarded
as an able teacher and an excellent
sneaker. He was formerly pastor of
the First Baptist Church in Titus
VILE, which position he held for five
years previous to accepting the call
to the local church.
The result of the meeting leaves
the matter as it stood previous to
the announcement. The parishioners
hold the Rev. Mr.. Dallman in the
highest esteem and are loath to
have him leave.

BUILDING TAKES
DROP IN SEPT.
Nine Permits For $204,255
Granted; to Start on Open
Air School Soon

Building work in the city took q
decided drop last month according 10
figures compiled at the office of the
city building inspector.
During September, nine permits
were issued for construction work
which is to cost $204,255. One of
these permits was for the new plant
of the Evangelical Publishing Com
pany now being erected at Third and
Reilly streets at a cost of 100000,
while the remaining eight were for
small additions and repairs, to cost
$4,255.
September, 1916, was one of the
record months for the year. Forty
five permits were issued for work
which cost $406,075.
While the contractors do not an
ticipate any more large jobs this
year, it is probable that extensive
building plans may be made for the
coming year. A permit will prob
ably be taken out IN the near future
for the erection of the new open air
school for the city school district

On order of Director of Public
Safety Wilson, Captain of Detectives
Tate swore out a warrant for Ma

attorneys detectives took him into

Is CONFIDENT
SCHOOL DEFECTS
WILL BE- RIGHTED
DR.. Downes Believes Board
Will Take Immediate Action
on Survey Recommendations

DR.. f. E. Downes. superintendent
of city schools. in an interview to-
day on the recent survey made under
the auspices of the Chamber of Com
merce said that he had no doubt that
the school board would remedy de-
fccts pointed out at once.
DR.; Downes said :
THE boards acceptance of the gen.
erous offer of the Chamber of Com
merce to finance the survey of the
business end of the affairs of the
school district, indicated a willing
ness on the part of the board to learn
of the most approved methods of
conducting school business. l have
no doubt, now that the report of the
surveyors has been made public. that
the board will proceed to remedy the
defects which have been found.
"The gentlemen assigned by the Blu
reau of Municipal Research to the
Harrisburg survey were fair-minded
task in a spirit of constructiveness
that is particularly noteworthy on
the other hand. the board and its
officers co-operated cheerfully and
fully in the work. Mutual helpful
ness seemed to be the spirit that per-
vaded the entire undertaking.
Survey Good Thing
THE board assumed that certain
weaknesses existed. in it's business
system and co-operated in having
these weaknesses pointed out. In this
the board showed a spirit that is
ccmmendable. One of the chief pur-
poses in an expert survey is to indi-
cate points of weakness, and it might
be added, these weak spots" are
generally discovered. Harrisburg. as
is seen /by the surveyors report is
no exception to this rule. That cer-
tain more or less serious defects have
been discovered is not nearly so seri-
Gus matter as that there should be
no attempt to correct them when eX-
pert advice points them out Doubt
less the board in due time will give
the report the serious consideration
which it deserves.
Aschool survey or any kind of ex-
pert survey. made in the proper spirit,
is good thing. l believe in such sur
Veys. I hope that the board may be
able soon to provide for a survey of
the professional end of the school
system. While numerous defects
would form basis for public criti-
cism. still, speaking for myself, l.
should welcome a helpful, construc-
tive review of our professional work
and methods. The information gained,
| am sure. would be of great value,
not only to all concerned in the pro-
fessional conduct of the schools, but
TO the boys and girls for whom the
schools primarily exist.

is preparing to advertise for the bids.
City commissioners anticipate at
least two bids. one from the Penn
sylvania Reduction Company, the
present contractor, and the other
from the Farmers Supply and Prod
ucts Company. Atlantic City.

lieve this will cause more competition
and may result in lower bids.

little delay. the commissioners said
