Farm Work at Orphanage
Keeps Expense From Rising

Sunbury, Pa. March 13.-Robert

adelphia; August Louch, Pittsburgh:
George Hollinger, Harrisburg, and
John McCleary, Johsonburg, COM
mittee on homes and kindred chari-
ties of the Grand Lodge of the In
dependent Order of odd Fellows in
Pennsylvania, yesterday completed
the audit of the accounts of the Cen
trail Pennsylvania odd Fellows Or
phans Home here where 175 chill
dren are living.
1t was found that the expenses did
not exceed those of the previous
year. According to j. w. Stroh,
president, this was due to the fact
that the management is living up to
the rules of the food administration
and also that the farm largely raises
its own food.

DRY" DRIVES

Cooperating Churchmen Aim
to Get Out Big Anti
Liquor Vote

The prohibition organization here
is getting stronger every day and
representatives of the various
churches cooperating with the Anti
Saloon League have now completed
a working schedule comprehensive
and practical. The basic notions of
course, is to get results at the pri-
maries and all efforts are to be turn
ed toward getting out the voters.
BY May 1, the only day for regis
tration in a city of the third class, it
is the hope OF the antiliquor forces
that every voter who would like to
see booze" abolished is enrolled.
Voters who registered last fall can
change their party enrolment or can
enroll now, if they failed to enroll
in a party when they registered last
fall In order to change registra-
tion, however, it will be necessary
for the registrant to have voted at
the last election for a majority of
the candidates of the party with
whom he now desires to enroll.
Active work will begin to-day
when the Rev. DIR. J. Bradley Mark
ward, chairman of the dry ratification
committee of Dauphin county, will
preside at a meeting of the COM
mittee for the purpose of taking up
the task ward by ward. The Rev.
Mr.. Krenz has been busy in the out
lying districts for nearly two weeks
and he will be brought into Harris
burg to help on the local campaign.
He reports that the sentiment for
prohibition is even stronger than
expected and that pledges to enroll
and get to the primaries are COM
ing in briskly even without solicita-
tion.
1t was said to-day by representa-
tives at the committee meeting that
the dry forces will not endorse any
dry candidate with regard to party.
That is to say, if there is wet can
didate who seems to have a chance
of being nominated, due to divided
opposition by several dry candidates,
then the committee will try to con-
centrate on one man in order that
n wet candidate does not win out.

afternoon for canvassing of the Vari-

The Democratic national committee
has issued a campaign pamphlet, q
copy OF which has found its way to
this office. The main cry OF the docu-
ment is, support the president in
this war" 1t says that republican
congress means a divided control and
asks do you want his (the presidenD
to be blocked?" and goes on to say
that the choice OF republican con-
gress will be looked upon In Germany
as evidence that the nation Is not be-
hind the president. These statements
look funny when compared with the
facts. President Wilson has met more
opposition from his own party in this
war than he has from the republican
party All of the leaders Of the
democrat party were opposed TO our
entering the war and most of them
TO the CONSUMPTION law. If II had not
been for the loyal support that the
republicans gave President Wilson in
his conduct of the war, he couldn't
have put his program through con-
gress. 1t is the republican that may
be thanked for the success that has
been attained by the administration
In the prosecution of the war, not the
members Of his own party.
