MANY CHILDREN IN
DANGER ZONE

Including those living in the reg
ions of the danger zone, there are
approximately 100000 persons in
the invaded and reconquered parts
of France. A fairly accurate idea
of the proportion of children in this
number can be obtained when it is
remembered that the majority of
the able bodied men had been call
ed to arms before the enemy reach
ed this country, that a considerable
number of people of financial means
managed TO get away before they
were caught behind the enemy's
trenches, and that in France, as in
other countries, the poorer classes
have the largest families.

stoner Tells How Local
y { Citizens Can Help.

The American Defense Society, in
widening the scope Of its activities
throughout the nation has appoint
ed Mrs. r. G. Stoner as member
Of the Woman's National Commit
tee, to represent this district,
In speaking of the society's aims
and the contemplated campaign in
this city, Mrs. Stoner in her first
communication as the society's' rep
resentative, brings home with decid-
ed force the need for immediate
action.
German agents in our midst are
not Pigment of the imagination but
a very real DANGER" states Mrs.
Stoner.
"In this war, If you cannot go to
the front you win want to serve at
home, especially now that our own
losses are beginning to be felt, and
we are al last actually realizing the
war. Germany is modified to the
last man and woman, and if Amer
lea is to win this war, we must also
mobilize those at home-every man
and woman. Service at home does
not necessarily mean that you must
give up your family obligations or
the time necessary for earning
your livelihood. Such service can
and should be given in your spare
time.
Immediate Action Necessary.
''The first thing you can do is to
concern ourself with the desperate
activities of the German Empire in
this country. Some of these activ-
tiles are political; others are in
dustrial - attempts at dynamiting
our war plants and burning build
ings. Still others are in the realm
of propaganda-spreading propa-
ganda- under the guise of peace
talk, 10 .s~ Ga oiaa
"If, you are an. American citizen,
if you~believe in the ideal of life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happi-
ness for which our forefathers gave
itheir. lives in the Revolution, you
can aid American patriotism by en-
rolling at once in an organization
like the American Defense Society.
"The American Defense Society
is a national propaganda society,
recently characterized by the New
York Sun as "the most outspoken
opponent of German propaganda in
this country" 1t is engaged in wag-
ing relentless warfare against en-
envy activities at home.
"This does not conflict in any way
with any societies or organizations
already formed and which are now
doing such splendid work.
eve propose to hold a series of
meetings to gain members, in the near
future, and among other things We
hope to bring to this city the great
est patriotic photoplay which has
ever been produced, as a means of
adding to the national fund for the
prosecution of enemy activities, and
the spreading of a pro-American
propaganda"
Some of the prominent women
with whom Mrs. Stoner will be as
ISOLATED in her new work are Mrs.
j. w. Hartman, Mrs. N. L. Beck
man, Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.,
Mrs. Robert Lansing, Mrs. Charles
S. Whitman, and other members of
the WOman's National Committee,
which has been appointed to assist
the American Defense Society in the
work which it is doing.

Progress Protests Against
Poor Water Supply

Residents of the village.of Progress
to-day protested to the Public Serv-
ice Commission against the failure of
the Susquehanna Water Company, of
this city, which operates in SusQue-
hanna township, to furnish a regular
supply of water. 1t is charged that
it has repeatedly" failed to maintain
its supply, gives no notice of failure
and thereby endangers health and
property. The complaint is the cli-
max of conditions the last month and
will be sent to the company for q
prompt answer.
The commissioner of Radnor town
ship, Delaware county, complained
that under the new schedule of the
Springfield Consolidated Water Com
pany. of Philadelphia, for fire service
it has to pay an increase of 1880
per cent. The increase is alleged to
be due to the inclusion of a charge
for pipe lines.
Residents of White Haven COM
planned that the White Haven Water
Company refused to extend water
mains.
