BOX PROBLEMS Will BE THEME OF SERMONS TO BE PREACHED BY MANY
CHURCHES WILL
HONOR LABOR
Problems Created by War
Will Be Dealt With at
Many Special Services

Thousands of ministers in every
part of this country will observe
Labor Sunday" tomorrow by
preaching on labor problems Great
ed by the war.
The suggestion that. the churches
hold special labor services on Sunday
came from the American Federation
of Labor and the Federal Council
of the Churches of Christ in Ameri-
ca, and the Federal Council has pre-
pared "A message for Labor Sunday
in time of war" to be used at these
services.
In some cases labor unions will
march from their halls to the
churches in bodies and committees
appointed by labor organizations
will take charge of the services.
The various national denomina-
tional social service bureaus have
been active for some time creating
an interest in the Labor Sunday
service, although in many cities
union services of several OF the
churches will be held.
Discussing the customs of the
churches to observe Labor Sunday
on the Sunday previous to Labor
Day, the Rev. Charles Stelzle, field
secretary for the Federal Council of
Churches, said:
Just as Memorial Day and the
several birthdays show our appre-
citation of those who render patriotic
service and just as the churches
holy days do honor to those who
serve mankind spiritually, so Labor
Sunday is observed by the churches
to honor the millions of toilers who
serve mankind in the humber places
of life."

LEMOYNE FAVORS
CONSOLIDATION
Businessmen at Mass Meeting
Speak Strongly in Favor of
Annexation to Harrisburg

Lemoyne, Pa, Sept. T. Should
residents of other West Shore towns
fail to favor the annexation of their
respective boroughs to the city of
Harrisburg, prominent business men
at a mass meeting here last night
declared that they are back of a
move to seek admission to the city
for this borough alone. The meet
ing was called through the West
Shore Firemen's Union, which or
SANITATION is carrying it through.
1t was decided at this meeting to
have Professor Harry Slothower, sec
retary, draw up petition and put it
in the hands of a committee the
duty of which will be to secure the
signatures of three-fifths of the tax
payers of the borough. This petition
is then to be presented to President
J. Fred Hummel, of the West Shore
Firemen's Union, with the under
standing that it be turned in to the
City Commissioners of Harrisburg,
whether there are any other petitions
favoring the move or not. 1t was
brought out by the business men
that Lemoyne will go through with
this move atyany cost.
On the petition committee are
George Palmer, chairman, ]. A.
Kunkel. Fl. Fl. Rice, William A. Ser
man and ]. s. Cummings. This COM
mittee will meet at the fire hall on
Monday evening to arrange all pre-
liminary work. Final arrangements
for the circulation of the petition
will be made at this meeting. The
petition will be started Tuesday
morning.
City Commissioners q. 2. Gross.
of Harrisburg, was the principal
speaker. In his talk the commits
sioner said that increased valuation
will not mean increased taxes and
that the people of the West Shore
have the wrong impression. He
maintained that increased valuation
means lower millage. He brought
out that there Is no equalization of
taxes in the present method of taxa
ton. He said that II the West Shore
was part of Harrisburg, the residents
would have the advantage of city
government, a school system which
would be unsurpassed by any in the
state, police protection which this
community is badly in need of, a
sewerage system which will be re-
auired of the West Shore within the
next year by the State Health De-
partment, cheaper water and part
of a corporation which is recognized
when it comes to legal proceedings.
L. M. Bricker, proprietor of the
West Shore Bakery, said If this op-
portunity for advancement is not
grasped at this time. Lemoyne is
asleep once more. He said that Le-
moyne wants the music and is will
ing to pay the fiddler. and that we
now pay tho fiddler but do not hear
the music.
Captain Ralph c. Crow, of the ma
chine gun company of the Eighth
Regiment, G. w. Palmer, H. H. Rice,
Justice of the Peace ]. A. Kunkel
and L. L. Hammacker were other
speakers. About twenty-five bust
ness men were in attendance at the
meeting.

Through the resignation of the Rev.
A. G. Wolf, as pastor of the st.

''livewire" citizens. The Rev. Mr..

a member of the board of trustees.
The Rev. Mr.. Wolf has been pas

church was abandoned and st. Paul's

land, erected at cost of $4,000.
The debt is practically wiped ou on
this edifice. For the past two years
he has been supplying the pulpit of
the Stone Church, at Wertzville. He
