J. $. CHECKS UP
 0N STATE FIGURES

Thomas A. Devor, statistician for the federal government, is engaged in making survey of financial transac- tions of the state.
 MT. Devor represents the census bu- reau of the department of commerce. The department has 32 representatives out making similar surveys in cities Of 3O,O00 population and over. The chief object that the department of commerce hopes to accomplish by this work is to induce the several states to use a uniform system of accounting and to bring about liberal practice of making reports.
 Under present conditions each state has its own method of classifying it's expenses and expenditures. The de- partment of commerce is faced with very complex problem when it calls upon the various states to make re ports of their expenditures for the pur- pose of making comparisons among the states. This is one reason for want Ing uniform system of handling fi- nancial transactions by the state. An other is that a uniform system would make for economy and efficiency.

PASSENGER TRAIN MEN JOIN FREIGHT
 CREWS IN STRIKE

DENVER, Aug. 21.-The passenger train employees of the Denver & Salt Lake railroad today joined the strike of the freight crews who quit work last night The passenger strike was called late today by A. T. Whitney, vice pres ident of the International Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen It was announced that the train scheduled to leave Den yer for Craig tomorrow morning would not be taken out by the train crew. When the train which left Denver this morning returns tomorrow, traffic on the road will cease as far as the train crews are concerned.
 It was said that the reason the pass enger employees did not strike simul- taneously with the freight crews was that they wanted to continue service long enough to give tourists and others along the line an opportunity to return to their homes.
 Try to Effect Settlement
 Judge W. L. Chamberlain of the fed eral commission of mediation, and con- ciliation, telegraphed today that he would arrive in Denver next Saturday to endeavor to effect a settlement of the strike.
 The strike was called by the em- plOyes in an effort to enforce demands for s242,000 in back wages which they assert is due them in accordance with the Adamson law and the increase in wages granted employees of government operated railways. The Denver & Salt Lake railroad is one of the short lines not taken over by the government. The road is in the hands of a receiver and the court has thus far declined to au- thorize payment of the back pay de- manded by the men.

There is going to be a gigantic and ornate fountain in the midst of the main approach to the court house in which the water from the artesian well sunk by Joe Drew 20 years ago win play. There has been wild clamor for such fountain, but the clamorer per haps did not expect as big a one as the supervisors have ordered. It is to be of concrete and will leave narrow passageway on each side of it.
 The circular form for the concrete was finished yesterday and the pave ment within it was cut away for the foundation. Hundreds of people have been drinking daily from the water which has been brought up in pipe to height of three feet from the sur face. The flow, it has been noticed, is steadily growing stronger. The water is of an excellent quality. clear and sparkling and has decided iron taste.

POPPIES ON BATTLEFlEuDS
(From the Pittsburg

(From the Pittsburg Dispatch)
 Apparently there is a strange rela- tion existing between battle fields and wild flowers. Macaulay tells how after the battle of Landen. in the Nether- lands, in 1893. between the French ar my and the English under King Will liam III. where more than 20,000 men were left unburied on the field. the soil broke forth in the following year into millions upon millions of scarlet pop pies, covering the entire battle field as if a vast sheet Of rich blood.
 An identica1ly similar occurrence is reported to have taken place 120 years later in the same region. when in the summer of the year following the vic tory of Waterloo the entire battle field was ablaze with scarlet poppies. The same springing Up of scarlet peoples everywhere on the battle fields. some months after the battle. is taking place in France in the present war.

The prisoner was given a chance to raise the money and bring the machine back if he will pay all expenses.

Hair that loses its color and lnstre.
or when it fades, turns gray, dull
and lifeless, is caused by a Lack of
sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Sage
Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful, and thousands
of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark shade
of hair which is so attractive. use
only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous
mixture improved by the addition of
other ingredients by asking at anv

VERDUN FRONT
DRIVER TELLS OF
HARD WARFARE
Shell Through Car Kills Sol
dier; Sewers Steering
Wheel Rod

I'm anxious to get back to the
front. not because I like the war,
but because I'd like to see it fin
ished."
This is the way Belford P. Atkin-
son, of the publicity staff of the Har-
risburg recruiting party, concluded
a recital of his years experience
driving an ambulance in the French
army, during which time he saw
some of the worst fighting in the
course of tre world war.
Barely 20 years old, Atkinson, is
in the United States to-day because
the gassing he received on the Ver-
dun front during the savage counter
attack of the French last August
rendered him incapable of further
service in the French army. The
young veteran is hardly more than
five feet and looks more like a
school boy than the veteran of half
a dozen campaigns.
Atkinson was a Freshman at the
Ohio Wesleyan University when a
comrade returning from France
filled him with the desire to enlist.
Accordingly he enlisted at the for
elgn service agency at Boston and
was sent to Paris, where he was
placed in the Fourth French army
and sent to the valley of the Marne.
The sector was quiet at that time.
and in June he was sent to the Ar
gonne forest. In September he was
sent to Verdun, where he was gassed
while driving his ambulance. After
a month in the hospital he was back
at Verdun and remained there until
December. At that time his enlist
ment expired and the effects of his
gassing kept him from passing the
second examination. He returned to
America, and is now engaged in re-
cruiting service until he can get to
the front once more.
Atkinson this morning gave an ex-
ample of what heroes are made of
when he was reluctant to speak of
his experiences at the front. That
he has seen sights calculated to sap

Five Apply For Place
in Intensive Drive For
Army and Navy Nurses

Five nurses have already applied
to the Harrisburg chapter. American
Redo Cross, for war service in the
Army and Navy, it was announced
this morning. In addition, "a nurse
has also registered for Red Cross
Home Defense service.
Applications have been received
from the following graduate nurses:
Miss Marjorie Hoax, Progress; Miss
Geistwhite, New Cumberland; Miss
Hoffmeister, 1916 Regina street; Miss
Mary E. Wolfe, Highspires and Miss
SINNERS, $50 Cum rland street.
Miss Florence E. Heller of the Har-
risburg school board, has registered
for service as home defense nurse.
The campaign is being waged Wig
orously by the local committee in
charge. Great interest is centered
in meeting of the graduate nurses
of Harrisburg and vicinity, to be
held in the Harrisburg Hospital, Sat
urday evening. DR.. Jesse Lenker,
recently returned from active war
service at Fort Benjamin Harrison,
Indiana, will speak on the need and
on actual work at the various camps.
His address will be followed by an
informal discussion which will be led
by Miss Carrie e. Lands, superinten-
dent of the Polytechnic Hospital, and
Miss Frances Scott, superintendent
nurses at the Harrisburg Hos
pital
The intensive campaign will con-
tinue until the tenth. Harrisburg has
been asked to give twenty-five nurses
to the nations quota of $4,000.
Explaining various points of the
campaign, the following statement
was to-day made public.
The call for more nurses for
Army and Navy work is made most
urgently by the government officials.
They urge married nurses not now
engaged in work to go back into the
service for the period of need SOL
diers from our own land will die for
lack of proper care unless we can
send abroad competent nurses.
Twenty-Five are needed from this
district. 1t is also requested that the
nurses who are finishing their train
ing this month shall have the sub
ject so brought home to them that
they will feel that they owe a duty
to their country which connot- be
ignored, and so will volunteer for
one of the most splendid services in
the world. Will Harrisburg fail to
give her quota of twenty-five? She
has never failed before. There are
many nurses, who for one reason or
another have dropped their profess
sional duties for some time. Will
they not go back now into the work,
and enlist for the sake of our BOYS ?"
Send name and address to Mrs.
James 1. Chamberlin, at Red Cross
Headquarters.
