CANNERY HELPS
CONSERVE FOOD

When Twelfth Company was ready
to strike camp Sunday, it was found
that great surplus of string beans
and cherries were on hand. The dona-
tions of fruit and vegetables resulted
from personal canvass of solicitation
by Mrs. l.. M. Bentley, chairman of a
committee of the Artillery Auxiliary,
composed of the wivs, sweethearts and
friends of the soldiers, and the ener-
getic woman, whose only son, Leon
Bentley, is member of the company,
declared that she could not stand to
see the food go to waste. Mrs. Bent.
ley Immediately got in touch with j. R..
Newton, of the. Newtonia Canning Co., 4,
who expressed himself as being glad
that he could can the product.
The cherries and beans were pre-
pared by the cooks and their helpers,
rushed to the cannery, and by the time
the train, bearing the artillerymen to
Portland was ready to leave, sthe fruit
and vegetables, total of liz dozen
cans, were ready to be placed in the
baggage car, due to the generosity of
the cannery.
The Auxiliary women prepared
lunches for the artillerymen ssfor Sun
day night, and big boxes, laden with
tasty sandwiches, fried chicken and
other foods that boys delight in. were
taken aboard the special cars.

LARGE APPLE
ORDER LANDED

Conditions Evidence Fine Prices for
All Grades Of Apples

The market opening with an order of
25 carloads of "C' grade Spitzenburgs

distributing concerns with the Fruit
Growers Exchange and the Hood River
Apple & Storage Co., the two local
affiliations of the Northwestern Fruit
Exchange, at a price of Sl.25 per box,
+. o. b. Hood River, growers are opti-
mistic over the 1917 apple deal. The
seasons initial order was reported
Saturday by Kenneth Mckay, manager
of the former cooperative shipping
agency, who is just back from Seattle
and other coast points and who pre-.
diets an excellent price for the extra
fancy and fancy grades of commercial
varieties.
"The situation in the banana and
orange business is most encouraging to
the apple grower" says Mr.. Mckay.
with bottoms needed to bring the
bananas from Central America being
Communicated for the transatlantic
business, the importation of bananas is
going to drop off materially. 1t is re-
ported that the orange crop is going
to be short this seaon."
The only fear of shippers at the
present time is that of car shortage
at and following the period of harvest
this fall. All fruit shipping concerns
and the Fruit Growers Agency are CO.
operating to secure a full transporta-
tion of fruit.
The Agency, in order to aid the
situation, has agreed to an increase in
the minimum loads of refrigerator
cars. The minimum of apples has
been increased from $50 to ia boxes,
while the pear minimum will be 5ll
boxes. In report of the Agency pro-
ceedings, it is stated that many cars
will carry all the apples that can be
safely packed in them. Last year,
according to the report, it was found
by shipments from Wenatchee that
1,00S boxes of apples could be convent
emily shipped in car.
C. W. McCullagh, too. is optimistic
over the sales outlook for the coming
fall. Mr.. McCullagh, who is a keen
observer of all conditions pertaining to
the apple trade, says that conditions of
all competitive fruit markets are such
as to leave feeling of encouragement
among Northwestern apple men.

BALL is
BRILLIANT SUCCESS
$4,000 Realized For Associated Aid Societies. Beautiful
Pageant of America; Decorations of Trumpet
Flowers and Doves Of Peace; All Society in Attend
ance y st

The committee in charge of the
Charity Ball announces to-day that
more than $4,000 was cleared for the
Associated Aid societies by last nights
brilliant event. The response of
everyone was so ready in whatever
way aid was asked that success was
assured from the very first.
Prosaic Chestnut Street Auditorium,
bleak and barren under the cold light
of day. was transformed into veri-
table fairyland last night when Har-
risburg turned out en- masse for the
annual Charity Ball. 1t was most
fitting that pleasure time, of people
blessed with peace and plenty, should
carry the message to each and every
one to remember all the world was
not so fortunate. White peace doves
hung suspended over the heads of the
dancers and pure white Easter lilies
banked the front of the stage. Fes-
tooned from the green girders of the
Auditorium hung countless sprays of
southern smilaX from which peeped
by thousands the orange-red bells of
crepe paper trumpet flowers. The
lights were shaded in the same color
while an odd note of contrast appear
ed in the blue-bells used to decorate
the stage. Flags of the nations hung
with the smilax half concealed by its
profusion.
The Sara Lemer orchestra and the
Palm Beach orchestra of Baltimore,
held their platforms on opposite sides
of the hall and by playing alternately
allowed the dancing to keep up con-
tihuously. On three sides of the dane
ing floor were the private boxes drap-
ed with white and gaily decorated
with smilaX and flowers. These were
all sold out some days ago and were
hlled with congenial parties both local
and, suburban. Back of them and in
the gallery the seats were filed to
their fullest capacity with spectators.
Begins With Pageant
The evening opened with a short
pageant, America" Across the back
wall of the stage hung huge map of
the United States bearing the words in
large letters, Hope OF The World, ,"
while flock of doves hung just over
head. Eight Harrisburg men: Farley

England coast. But Jules is differ
ent from his race. A strain of
French blood on his mothers side
makes him rebellious of the narrow
outlook and cramped lives of the
people who surround him.
Unable to accustom himself to
their ways he seeks forgetfulness in
strong drink, and drink is gradually
becoming his master. Bit by bit he
parts with his properties and the
last of his heritage remaining is the
old rambling house of the 1ngrams.
A miserable skinflint, Rufus
Moore, the local banker, has secured
all the properties and possessions of
Jules for song, and prepares to
foreclose the mortgage on the house.
In the village there is one other in
hahitant who is living as solitary
life as Jules. Mercy Reed as
Young girl has through innocence
erred in the one way unforgivable in
the eyes of her Puritan neighbors.
Struggling bravely in her little cot
tage with only small strip OF land
to offer her the means of sustenance
she bravely faces the jeers and con-
tumely of the self righteous. Be-
tween her and Jules there is bond
of sympathy fostered by the unkind-
ness of fate. The day comes when
Rufus Moore has all the property OF
the last of the Ingrams, with the ex-
ception of supposedly worthless
claim on some western lands.
Jules, facing the wreck of his for
tunes, determines to abandon his old
courses, forsake strong drink and
start life as a new man. Mercy
keeps close watch over him to con-
quer his weakness until the time
comes when his moral regeneration
is complete. In the meantime the
villagers conspire to drive both Jules
and Mercy from the settlement.
One day, headed by Rufus Moore,
band attacks Mercy's cottage, but
she is defended by Jules, who has
accidentally learned that Rufus
Moore is the cause of Mercy's early
transgression, forces him to apollo
gize to her and beg her forgiveness
before the villagers, and in the pre-
sence of his jealous wife. Rufus
Moore is seized by the authorities
for some crooked financial deal, and
Jules and Mercy leave New England
for the west to take up claim on
the land in California, which has be-
come valuable through oil findings.
They set out from the bleak,
storm beaten Eastern shore and its
