irto but at the meeting tonight every
phase of the matter will be fully dis

The rifles with which the Light
Guards will be armed will be at the
armory tonight, the weapons having
been brought down from the Americus

been stored since the closing Of school
in May. The Krag-Jorgensen carbines
used by the Cadet corps are to be used
by the Light Guards until arrange
ments can be made to secure guns from
the federal government.
It is particularly necessary that ev-
ery members of the organization be
present tonight.

MACON GETS REMOUNT
CAMP FOR NEW ARMY

MACON. Ga. July 19.-Additional
good news came to Macon yesterday in
the form of an announcement that
there will be a remount station estab-
lished in connection with Camp Wheel
eC. The government asked the military
{ mmittee of the Chamber of Commerce
to secure a site. Within an hour the
committee had three available sites
selected, and is now after options
which are expected to be closed late to-
day.
The men who have been working to
secure a camp or cantonment were not
( pecting a remount station. A tract Of
nearly 1000 acres has been offered the
government free of charge by Atlanta
citizens, and it had been understood
that Atlanta would get the remount
stations for the Atlanta, Augusta and
Macon camps. Atlanta had figured on
taking care of 10000 horses and mules
and the information received in Macon
yesterday was to the effect that 10000
would be kept in this city. This
is taken to indicate that Atlanta, Ma
con and Augusta will equally share in
Temounts

The archbishop evidently is acquainted with

of charity Christ taught the world to give; char-
ty from the heart to the heart; charity that rec
ognizes in every poor man brother or sister;
charity that feeds and warns because it ema-
mates from souls pulsating with true love for
humanity.
professional and statistical charity is the
kind that Nero, a Diocletian, or an Attila might
have dispensed. It lacks all elements of contact
with loving soul. 1t is cold as ice and as scien-

elements that are not depended upon to make its

Red Tape in the Army.

The Congressional Record is not piece of
fiction or a book of jokes, but now and then one
runs across paragraphs in the proceedings that
are amusing. Senator Gallnger the other day
unwound some of the red tape required before a
United States soldier can obtain his release from
the army Thirty-eight distinct operations were
necessary before the private who made applica-
ton, to purchase his discharge and had a recon-
mendation from his superior officers obtained
the papers. The discharge of a soldier may be an
important one, but we believe the problem is not
so complicated that thirty-eight operations are
necessary in the Department of War before a pri-
vate can consider himself civilian. Red Tape of
this kind makes governmental administration
joke. If the teamster of one of the large indus
trial concerns of the United States could not OBJ
tain his discharge until thirty-eight operations
had been performed in the office, the chances are
ten to one that the concern would have no team
sters or that it would go broke trying to maintain
an office force large enough to handle the card
system required.

The Real Kind Of Charity Director

Archbishop Mundelein of Chicago has the
same Interpretation for charity that Christ
taught us. The archbishop has appointed lead
er to direct the charity work of the Catholic
church in Chicago and has directed this man to
develop sympathetic charity" rather than be a
cold professional, statistical paid agent of pub
lie philanthropy"
The archbishop has the same opinion about
some charity experts and so-called trained char
ity workers that some of us entertain. We have
contended all along that unless the administra-
ton of charity is based on principles OF love and
Kindness it is hollow mockery. If poor per-
son can obtain aid only by subjecting. himself to
the torture of a scientific third degree given by
paid agent Of public philanthropy" we are not
administering charity but are inflicting punish
ment because person is poor or sick, or the VIC
tim Of an untoward circumstance. We believe
that poor person is not strange scientific
specimen that must be examined, dissected and
catalogued by an expert who may have brains
but too often lacks that degree Of loving kindness
and sympathy which we expect to be applied to
the man who has fought hard fight against fate
or the woman who is doing mans work to sup
port family.

Small Machine Chases
Runaway Team Around
Field, Finally Stopping 1t

A truck of popular make owned
by Dives, Pomeroy and Stewart,
played the part of a runaway catch
er this morning when it chased 4
double truck wagon owned by Hoffer
and Garman, of Eighteenth street,
from Thompson avenue to Seven
teenth street to Derry street and
finally through the large cornfield
owned by Elmer Wagner, of Clover
ly Heights, where the horses were
caught just as they were about to
crash through the fence.
1t was an exciting chase and the
sight of the horses plowing through
the cornfield madly pursued by the
machine which had trouble keeping
it's balance, created much excitement.
The driver of the team was on
business errand and had left his
horses in Thompson street. The
wagon was loaded with corn and
-four, but no damage was done to the
horses or wagon. The greatest dam
age was done to Wagner's cornfield.
Several rows of ripe corn was
knocked down.

NO LETUP IN
TOBACCO FUND
CONTRIBUTIONS
Aged Lady Opposed to Use
of Weed" Tells Why She
Contributes For Smokes

Contributions to the Our Boys in
France Tobacco Fund" continue to
come into the Harrisburg Telegraph
in a steady stream. The fund is
well over the hundred-dollar mark
and going strong.
1t is a cause that is meeting with
widespread approval. Few can re-
sist the opportunity to personally
do something for the boys over there
in the damp. desolate country known
as the war zone. And the fund offers
great personal opportunities because
when you sign the coupon and send
ii in. it is placed in a package and
forwarded to an American soldier in
France. He acknowledges it, thank
ing you for your generosity. placing
you in direct touch with the men
who are giving their all for their
country. In no other way can you
get in direct touch with the firing
lire.
With contribution sent in yester-
day came a little note from an aged
maidenly lady who is very much OPP
posed to the use of tobacco under
ordinary circumstances.
But these boys must be under a
fearful physical and mental strain"
she writes. and if 1 can do anything
to make them forget their troubles
and get a little pleasure out of the
long hours in the trenches. I'm going
tc do it regardless Of whatever scru-
pies 1 might have. Their comfort
is of more value than my conscience.
And don't believe my conscience will
bother me a bit"
This is the sentiment that pervades
many of the little notes that are
being sent in and shows the wide
spread approval of the move. Con-
tributions received since yesterday
