Clarly, state expert on pelts, who
passes on every hide turned in by
Pennsylvania hunters to be sure 1t is
the real thing and not a counterfeit,
says that nearly all animals are bet
ter swimmers than man. The elk
and the reindeer are first-class
swimmers. The elk keeps his head
above water and crosses directly
from bank to bank to avoid turning.
The reindeer, on the other hand,
turns as often as he likes, keeping
his head only little above the sur
face. But of all swimmers of all
climes, though not the swiftest, is
the polar hear, who passes half his
time in the water swimming and
diving. He can swim thirty miles
without much effort. OF animals In
this neighborhood the squirrel is
swiftest. A gunner last fall took a
captive squirrel out in the center of
a lake in Monroe county and chuck
ed him overheard. The squirrel
turned toward the bank, head and
paws above the water. back and tail
underneath it, and began to swim
sa rapidly that it was with the
greatest difficulty that the man re-
covered 1t when it reached the shall
low water near the land.
Farmers coming to Harrisburg
markets predict that there will be
so much sweet corn on the cob to
eat this summer that Pennsylvania
will get tired of it. But there are
many who like it as much as Uncle
Joe Cannon, who was having din
ner one day at the old Willard and
took three orders of it, Joe" ask
ed his guest. a western Congressman,
how much board do you pay at this
tavern" Joe told him and he OBJ
served after gazing at the stack of
corncobs: Don't you think it would
be cheaper for you to board at a
livery stable?"

gestion that civil as well as criminal
responsibility should be fixed for the
failure of the Governments colossal

Gratis and Republicans at Washington

cussion of the aims of the war in high

department charged with the conduct
OF the war. is exasperating beyond
measure in face of this discouraging

SAVING AND BUYING

T T is very gratifying to see by
Banking Commissioner Daniel T..
Lefean's summary of the reports
of the banking institutions under
the eye of the State that Pennsylva-
mia is adding millions to it's savings
fund deposits when it is sending
every one of its counties "over the
top" with subscriptions to the Third
Liberty Loan.
This State is lust through with a
wonderful campaign Nr the sale of
bonds to back UP the fighters "over
there" and is chock full of justi-
fable pride over what 1t did. And
in a short time it will begin to
work out some system whereby 1t
can buy War Savings Stamps on a
schedule.

ures the industrial State of Pennsyl-

CARRY-ON!

I
Il concluded. in view of wartime
demands for labor and high price
of materials, not to trim or spray
the shade trees of that town this
spring. Doubtless Steelton knows
what it is about, for the borough OF
ficials have taken better care OF the
borough's trees than is the case in
most towns. Very likely the trees
will not be damaged by lack Of usual
attention at this season. But the in
cident points a warning which mu-
nicipal officials here and elsewhere
cannot afford to ignore.
However much we may desire to
concentrate on purely war acuvides
there are other public duties to
which we must attend if the very
thing for which we are fighting is to
be kept untarnished and undefiled.
We must not. among other things.
neglect our own homes and their
surroundings. The plane of living
which we are fighting to elevate
abroad must not be permitted to
retrograde at home. Our city gov
ernments must be maintained in a
high state of efficiency. Regardless
of cost or effort or the ease with
which public affairs may be allowed
to slip into easy going ways under
the excuse of war necessity" we
must "carry-on" quite as vigorously
in our own communities as our boys
abroad "carry-on' in the war against
the intolerable Hun.
The cities to which these boys
come back when the war is over
must be better cities than those
which they left when the cheering
crowds bade them god-speed on
their mission of war. 1t must not
be said of us that we let ourselves
fall into slovenly ways. that we
countenanced deterioration of pub
lie works or failed to provide for
public needs.
There are signs all over the coun-
try that councilmanic bodies-not
maliciously or carelessly. but under
the mistaken impression that they
are acting in accord with the needs
of the moment-are putting aside or
ignoring altogether those commun-
ity functions and improvements
without which city progress is i'm
possible and living conditions GER
tain to sink to those lower levels
from which it has been the effort of
thousands of patriotic citizens to
raise them. Our campaigning es-
pecially during the past two decades
must not be permitted to have been
in vain. We must go on in our work
of civic betterment whatever the
cost. We need not neglect our war
work to Go this; our civic activities
must be in addition.
Somebody has said 1t will not be
so much a question Of what we are
going to do with the soldiers when
they return as 1t will be what the
soldiers, who have been fighting for
a great principle. are going to do
with us, and certainly we could not
expect much sympathy from the
homecoming millions If they found
that we had neglected our COM
munity duties while they were away
risking their lives for the things
which they had left-with us in trust.
