Rather late in getting underway,
but with a promise of something en-
traordinary in boxing shows, this
city will take up ring sport next
week, 1t will be ushered in with a
bill that includes ten-round battle.
This is new to Harrisburg fight fans.
There have been eight-round con-
tests, but with boys who have a repu-
tation for fighting going ten rounds,
this city is expecting a real boxing
exhibition.
The first show is scheduled for
Tuesday night, March &c. The Motive
Power Athletic Association of the
Philadelphia division, Pennsylvania
railroad, is back of the sport. The
first favorable impression came with
the announcement that Jack Hanlon
of the Olympia Club, Philadelphia,
would be one OF the matchmakers.
Then the wishes of many local fans
for good referee will be gratiiied,
as Frank (Pop) O'Brien will referee
the battles.

RECOGNIZING MERIT.

The dispatch printed in Saturdays issue
which told Of the increase in salaries of teach
ers in four of the States larger cities, in
creases ranging from twenty to twenty-five per
ent,-strengthens the wisdom of the actioi of
the local Board of Education in raising salar-
les of local teachers. While the increase locally
will not equal on the whole that of the increases
in these other cities, it does represent con-
siderable increase The point however is that the
deserts of teachers in this respect being rec
ognized, and they are being paid in proportion
to the services rendered. While the new schedule
has come as result of war conditions, we be-
lieve that the people will not suffer the old
schedule to return after the war is over, be-
cause the merits of the teachers demand that
they be paid more money than they as class
were paid before the war;

The American newspapers which come over two

KEEPING CONGRESS ON THE JOB.

War is a mighty worker of miracles, ana not
the least of it's accomplishments is that it has
forced Congress to reconsider its plan to adjourn
Immediately for six weeks and made, it decide
to stay on until the important Administration
measures have been disposed of. Both Houses
have been Jealous in the past of their rights to
regulate their own lengths of sessions, and they
have not welcomed any interference; but pres
sure from the Administration, which in these
days carries with it an unchallenged popular
backing, urged the present Congress to stay
with the work until it was finished. The legisla-
ton which the Administration wants will doubt
less be forthcoming; that is why Congress is
there. The people do not expect anything else.
