Endicott, with his strang special. is
a feared entry.
The racing program has been well
worked out, eight events comprising
the afternoons entertainment. Among
the races that will be particularly in
teresting will be the Australian pur-
suit handicap; the three-mile match
race for a side bet, by Lampkin and
Clark; the big event between Lamp
kin, in his Jumbo Benz, and Hender-
son, in his Fiat Submarine, the two
largest and most powerful racing cars
in the world; and the Northwestern
Sweepstakes. with a first prize of
$1,000. This last ace will be for 20
laps, or ten miles, and will mean all
kinds of thrills.
In addition to the regular and spe-
cial racing program, Hankinson's
auto polo team will play a two-period
contest. These boys generally close
a weeks engagement with a perform-
ance designed to put most cars in the

Altogether. it looks like one big,

Prospect Of Hospital For
Crippled Workers Improves

Delegates to the sixth annual con-
ference of Industrial Physicians and
surgeons of Pennsylvania left Har-
risburg to-day, enthusiastic over the
progress made at this session. Not
at any previous meeting was there
such .rousing zeal displayed for the
establishment of hospitals where
crippled Industrial workers may be
rehabilitated. The idea has been
discussed, but never advocated so
strongly.
DR.. Francis C. Patterson, chief of
the Division of Industrial Hygiene
and Engineering of the state, prac-
tically promised that the state would
take over these reconstruction hos
pitals after the war and make them
permanent state institutions.
Harry A. Mackey, chairman of the
Workman's Compensation Board. Of
fered the suggestions that this Board
be made separate and distinct de-
partment of the administration in
stead of part of the Department
of Labor and Industry, and that the
state Legislature enact a health in
curance law.
Mr.. Mackey urged that the provi-
siOns of the law be extended to cover
railroad employees and farmers. The
first. the speaker declared must be
accomplished through Congressional
action. while state legislative action
would bring about the second.

Civil Service Attacked by
Mayor Said to Be Based
on Rules of Other Cities

Owing to the fact that some forms
had been mislaid and that he did not
know there was any particular
hurry, said Secretary to the Mayor
Backenstoss yesterday, the reports
of fines and forfeitures collected by
the Mayors office were returned to
the office of superintendent of Ac-
counts and Finance Burtnett so slow
ly that that official had to make a
request that they be speeded up. In
scme cases it was shown that the
reports were not turned in until six
weeks after the end of the month.
The law requires that they be filed
each month.
City Clerk Ross Seaman, chairman
of the Police Civil Service Board, de-
clared in answer to recent remarks
from the Mayors office regarding
the inefficiency of the civil service
examinations that while the law
PASSED by the Legislature is not ade-
Quate, the questions compiled by his
board were compiled only after care
full consideration with the examina-
tion lists of similar boards in other
cities

Lemons Beautify!
Strain lemon juice we'll before
mixing and massage face,
neck, arms, hands.

Here is told how to prepare an in
expensive lemon lotion which can be
used to bring back to any skin the
sweet freshness of which it has been
robbed by trying atmospheric con-
ditions. Windchafe, roughness, tan
and redness are warded off and those
tell-tale lines of care or of age are
softened away.
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white makes
a whole quarter pint of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
small jar of the ordinary cold
creams. Care should ba taken to
strain the lemon juice through a fine
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then
this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and
remove such blemishes as freckles,
sallowness and tan. and is the ideal
skin softener, smoothener and beau
tifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and
make up a quarter pint of this
sweetly fragrant lemon lotion and
massage it daily into the face, neck,
arms and hands, and see for your
self.

Little Talks by
Beatrice Fairfax

The following letter came to me
slight misconcepton in regard to
some of the things I have written
about women continuing to work aft
er marriage, l shall answer it at
length:
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
You have written so much lately
about women holding their jobs
after marriage that l should like to
ask you few questions.
Don't you think it is a better ar
rCngement when the woman stays
home and keeps house and cares for
the children, when there are any, in
stead of going out and helping to
earn the family living?
That's the way it used to be in
my home, and 1 hope it's going to be
Ike that with me some day, but I
must say there are no such pros
poets at present. I am employed in
a Government office, and I'm not
crazy about it. Certainly, i should
lot, like to continue there il 1 do
marry. I am now 3S, and there seems
nothing ahead for me but work.
Yours sincerely,
ROSEMARY"
To begin, Rosemary, I do think it
better arrangement when the wom-
an stays home and keeps house, the
way your mother and father did, and
the man goes out and earns the fam
ally living. But that happy state of
affairs is getting to be more and
more difficult for people of moderate
incomes, owing to the high cost of
diving.
Not very long ago. with strict
economy, a hundred dollars a month
would suffice for a small family.
That was about the average salary
for a Government employe, and. once
on time, il could be stretched and
squeezed into covering the family
budget, but now il leaves in it's wake
a trail of debts and anXieties, when
devoted toward that end.
l am speaking. of course, of the
cost of living in big cities. where ev-
orything must be bought and paid
fer, not life on farm, where food
stuffs may be raised.
But of the two Alternatives
lonely and sterile old age, or home
life where husband and wife both
work-the latter seems to me inf
nltely preferable. With youth,
health and love any miracle is pos
sible, and you must not leave out of
the question the tremendous incen-
tive to doing ones best that home
and children bring. They are the
great spur that has made the world
take all the high hurdles.
Legislators all over the world are

awakening to these new economic
conditions. Even the most reaction
airy of them, who arc still medieval
in regard to woman suffrage, Will
vote for mothers pensions" and
maternity insurance" and similar re-
medal legislation designed to meet
the new conditions that have become
we'll nigh intolerable. for people. in
modest circumstances.
If a woman must work in an Of
flee eight hours a day through youth
and middle age. isn't it better for
her to come home at night to home
and-the incalculable blessing of
children. perhaps-than to a cherries
room and solitude?
The care of young children during
the absence of the mother is not
fraught with insuperable difficult
ties. 1t would require. of course. an
intelligent system of adjustment such
as has been successfully tried out by
several professional women of my ac-
quaintance.
Every one must settle this problem
according to her means and situa-
tion. 1t would require, for instance,
no great strain of the imagination
to leave a group of such babies in
charge of one or more trained nurses
who would have specialized in regard
to child welfare. Roof gardens on
apartment houses are not difficult or
cApensive-they might easily be con-
verted into baby gardens or Montes-
sori schools.
What Would Grandma Says
Could anything have seemed Wild
er or more radical to our grand
mothers. with their inexorable sys-
L. \,
veniences of the modern fiat, the
um cleaner? Why, then, should an
apartment house with a modern
nursery in charge of competent
nurses seem so cataclysmic?
Children reared in such environ
ment would certainly have a better
chance of living and acquiring the
foundations of good constitution
than the children reared by well-to-
do. but unthinking, mothers, who
mean well, but sin through ignorance
The average mother, be she ever so
conscientious. is rarely dietician
and food continuing at its present
rCinous cost. she is more apt to man
age with what she has on hand than
to give the child a balanced ration
that cooperation and training makes
pOSSlDlCs
Cooperation will make possible
for the poor the scientifically bal
snced meal that heretofore has been
the luxury of the rich. 1t will make
possible children's gardens, in charge
of child experts.
1t has already accomplished. for
the school children of New York, the
inestimable benefit of hot, properly
balanced lunch supplied by the city
at cost. Cooperation is the Alad-
drudgery, and bring home life within
drudgery and bring home life within
the grasp of everyone.
And, furthermore, l don't feel so
deeply sympathetic for the mother
who goes out daily to work, the
; chances are that contact with the
world will keep her younger-looking
than massage, cold cream and floor
rolling.
Look at the difference in the ap-
pearapce of women to whom the war
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-04-10

has given employment. Instead of
that settled expression of bored vac
uity that peered from every other
Limousine, the idle rich have taken
a brace, they begin to look human
almost intelligent, as they rush
about, genuinely busy about some
thing for the first time in their lives.
Horrors of a Solitary Dinner
Imagine a self-supporting woman
coming home after long days work
to home with children and spend
ing her evenings with them till bed
time, telling them their favorite
stories. then tucking them in with
a good night kiss. ...,-.. ...
Or imagine the same woman COM
ing home to nothing but her empty
fiat and solitude. She eats a lonely
dinner, proppinS up her newspaper
against the caraffe, and reads about
a world that seems to include every
one but her. For dinner she has
q choice of a book or perhaps going
out. when solitude will again greet
her on her return.
No, there is no comparison between
these alternatives to the normal
W oman. OF course. Mrs. Grundy will
rave over the iniquity of giving up
her baby to someone else and going
to lob" like a man. But pray,
what has Mrs. Grundy been doing all
these years but turning her baby
over to nurse and sometimes a
very unworthy one at that. while she
went to a bridge party or made calls
or did something equally unprofit-
able?
To conclude, Rosemary, I should
certainly advise you to marry if you
have an opportunity. even if you
marry a poor man and add your SAL
airy to his and together found a real
home.

CHAPTER yL

Copyright, 1918, Star Company
The atmosphere in the Livingstone
household was determinedly cheer
ful, yet a sensitive person would
have perceived that it was strained.
Cynthia, acting the part expected of
her, was conscious that others be-
sides herself were playing roles that
were not natural to them. Dora
locked pale, yet her tongue ran on
faster than ever
Cynthia suspected that this To-
quacity was forced, but was at a
loss to understand why Dora should
simulate vivacity if she did not feel
it. Perhaps she was still a little
hurt that Gerald and his betrothed
had not confded in her sooner.
Cynthia consoled herself with the
comforting reflection that her cousin
could not hold resentment long.
Moreover, Dora was as affectionate
as ever. But it was plain that there
was on her mind something which,
in spite of her usual frankness, could
not be uttered.
Mr.. Livingstone was much absorbed
in business these days, and. when at
home, talked little. Mrs. Livingstone e
went about with a stereotyped smile
and patted Cynthia's shoulder ap-
ceiling her "a dear child"
Millions congratulations were not
what Cynthia had expected from him
The first time they met after the an
nouncement of her engagement he
7 shook hands with her and said for

lated Stewart. He is a fortunate
man."
He had not met her eyes with the

customed. Under these circumstance:
it was not strange that her "Thanl

While she realized that she did moi
love Gerald Stewart, her appreciation
increased each time that she saw
him. He could certainly not be called

grateful. He must care for her, else
why had he confided his affection fol
her to her aunt, and why had he
asked her to marry. him?
Dora Is Whimsical
He did not bother her with his at
tentions, but called when she found
1t convenient to see him. He always
asked permission before coming, a
fact at which Dora smiled whim-
sically.
Gerald is certainly an accommo-
dating person." she remarked one
day. He let's you tell him when he
may come and when he must stay

Mis-. Livingstone, who CHANGED to

II have said before, Dora, with re-
gerd to you, that I am glad that you
and Milton are not a pair of silly
lovers. I can say the same thing
now of. Cynthia and Gerald. They
have chosen each other out of all
the world, but that does not mean
that they are sentimental idiots. I

must confess even to Cynthia's face
that l admire their manner. Each
keeps the respect of the other by
sLch demeanor, and they make

behaved when you were engaged?"
Dora questioned.

friends, whose affection for each 9TH

That is as it should be. have no
faith in the hot love that cools soon.

endures even after youth has flown"
1t is not what l used to believe
in, nevertheless" Dora muttered.
Her mother looked at her inquir-
ingly. She had not caught the SEN
tcnce, yet thought it wiser not to
ask to have it repeated.
"By the way" Mrs. Livingstone
continued. with the manner of elab-
crate indifference that betokened the

tell me what you have been plan

Cynthia was looking at her aunt
, ouestioningly. Something-lt may

a well-matured plan was about to be
unfolded.
Mrs. Livingstone, meeting her

to ask you, and. of course, you also,
Dora-what you girls would think

Cynthia did not move. She was

odsly

Because Cynthia has not made a

"She is only just engaged. All her
clothes would have to be fitted and
made"
"She is just your size, so the order
for all of your things could be du-
plicated for her." Mrs. Livingstone
announced. she can begin at once
to give orders for her trousseau.
Dora, don't raise objections! Your

subject? What is the matter, my
