mai charge OF arson has been laid
against Howard L. Mcdonnell, the
Littlestown tailor whose shop was
destroyed by fire at an early hour
last Monday morning, together with
five other properties in the center of

an explosion of gasoline, Immediate

run down the street away from the
scene of the fire.

he appeared at his place he found
some men taking measurements of
his automobile in the working out
of some clues that looked suspicious.

and became ugly. At the instruction
of the district attorney he was placed
in the county jail on a charge of
carrying concealed weapons. State

once put on the case and the knowl-
edge gained has evidently borne out
the early suspicious. for Sergeant

Scientifically trained experts. how

such men must be continued to an
extent. Men injured in the war will
be sent to colleges after they recov-

stitutions. Regarding present exemp-
ton of divinity students, he said.
their draft for army chaplains is be-

The departments plans, Mr..

Need Every Man
To put eighty divisions of Amer
leans in France before June of 1919,
General March emphatically de-
clared:
I'VE will need every single man in
Class 1 between is and 45. We must
not delude ourselves with the idea
that those in the Is and 10 calls are
going to be deferred any length of
time. They will have to be called
early next spring in order to get their
training in time to get to France"
To Rush Transports
General March read an official
statement showing that on August /
the American army numbered 3,012,-
112 men, divided as, follows:
American expedition force and en-
route overseas, 1.301,742.
1n'the United States and insular
possessions. 1,432,706.
Called in the August draft, 277.664.
In addition there are about 5000
marines serving with the expedition
ary force.
For the present it is planned to
send 250,000 men monthly to
France, General March stated, add
ing:
But we hope to increase that in
the spring"

ARMY MEDICAL
FILM SHOWN HERE
Remarkable Picture Showing
Temptations to Which
Soldiers Are Subjected

Members of the Harrisburg Ro-
tary Club, through the courtesy of
DR.. Hyman R. Wiener. a member, and
Isaac Silberman, representing the
United States medical moving picture
service, saw at noon to-day the gov
ernment's especially made picture,
Fit to Fight" in the assembly room
Of the Harrisburg Y. NJ. C. A.
The picture is designed to show
enlisted men and men subject to the
draft the dangers of liquor drinking
and social immortality to the SOL
diers.! The film ought to be seen not
only by every soldier and prospective
soldier, but by every man and boy
over fifteen years of age in the whole
country. 1t is the most startling ex-
position of the frightful results of
dissipation and the dangers which
attend the association of men with
immoral women that has ever been
put into lecture or picture form.
Never was the old adage BE good
and you will be happy" better il
Illustrated.
The picture does not bear descrip-
ton. 1t is not intended for mixed
audiences as shown to-day. but 1t is
so well worth while, so graphic, so
instructive and at the same time so
free from objection and so highly en-
tertaining in some of it's army life
portrayals that it ought to be made a
part of the preliminary instruction
given to all drafted mtn before they
are called into the service of the
country. 1t should be made a re-
quirement of the draft regulations
and unquestionably would go very
long way toward eliminating many of
the evils pictured in the film.
Mayor Keister and number OF
other public officials were present as
especially invited guests to-day to
see the picture.

peace must be arrived at by ne

German deserters who came
over to the British lines say that
just before they left their line
volunteers to go on a raid for
the purpose of obtaining identi-
fications were called for. They
were offered $50 marks, fourteen
DAYS leave and Iron Crosses. but
