miracle Wrought"
The termination of hostilities in
Europe abruptly changed the aspect
of the patriotic work of the great
societies whose mission is the ctea-
tin of an intelligent enthusiasm for
things American. During the last
four years. we have all been intent
upon the problem of unifying public
opinion regarding the great issues in
volved in the winning of the war
against military autocracy. Ry the
myriad patriotic campaigns conduct
ed throughout this nation by thesn
associations, a miracle of TRANSFORMED
ton was wrought in the public opin-
ion of our polYglot nation. Our people
today understand the meaning of
what we have destroyed. and their
opinion regarding it is clear, enlight-
ened and uniform. Military autocra-
cy has no hidden meaning today. The
mask has been torn off, and it stands
revealed to our people in al! its hid
eousness.

1--WE are now asking ourselves the
question, Are our people equally well
Informed as to what we have saVed?'
If our nation is to play the part Of
leadership in a free world which the
developments of the last two years
have opened to her, she must under
stand her own institutions better than
she understands them today. Repre-
sentative government is now to face
the crucial test of world wide expert
mentation. 1t is therefore impera-
tive that the people of this country,
to which so many nations are looking
for light and leadership, should be
put into intensive training for that
leadership. The reactionary move
ments labeled progressive now
challenging the attention of the
world, are menacing in exact proper
ton to the ignorance of our people.
If we can bring home to them by in
tens'Ve, instructive campaigns the vi
tai principles of our government as
embodied in the documents which real
Americans justly reverence, we shall
furnish a specific antidote to Bolshe-

passing with other archaic insti-
tutions." AS we read:
THE new order of operation calls
for well-appointed towers with an
abundance of room for all the dis
patchers and lever-men, and there
is room for a whole crew to warm
up at a time. A man in a tower
now can control switches a long
way ahead on either side of his
tower, and he has only to pull a
little lever or touch a button to
accomplish that result. 1t isn't nee
essary to go out in the weather and
throw heavy device that used to
to severely tax the operator. EIec-
trio current and magnets perform
the same service with a minimum
of effort. The veterans, who are
being relieved of their shanties, are
going to crossings that are not pro-
vided with gates, where they bid
fair to spend the balance of their
railroad days. AS these stations take
them out of the active yard centers,
their capacity to gather and distri-
butte the dope will be severely i'm
paired, and it is hardy to be ex-
pected that the trainmen will longer
view their disclosures with awe"

THE FARMERETTES AGAIN

In accordance with the program
laid out by the Council of National
Defense, urging educational institu-
tons to recruit the man power" OF
the Nation for the raising of food
stuffs. the Margaret Morrison Divi-
sion of the Carnegie Institute of
Technology, have gone a step far
ther and are recruiting the girl pow
er for this purpose. The girl far
merettes" recruited are not drawn
from the student body, but are COM
posed of girls employed in nearby
offices, stores and factories.
In enlisting in the "farmerettes,"
the girls are given not only an op-
portunity of doing their bit" in the
production of foodstuffs so sorely
needed, but are afforded the chance
of a summer vacation that will ben
eft them physically and financially
as well.
Before leaving for the summer
camp, the girls have been formed
into classes in which they will re-
ceive instruction in the domestic
sciences such as cooking. sewing and
millinery and also in dramatics and
a thorough course in physical train
ing and athletics. A part. of the
physical training consists of esthetic
and folk dancing. These classes will
meet three evenings n week at the
Margaret Morrison Division between
the hours of 1880 and $50.
In May and June an advance
guard of workers will go to the
summer camp to do the planting.
On July first, the first vacation par
ty of girls will leave for Camp
Louise Carnegie, situated at Glen
cairn, thirty miles above Pittsburgh
on the shores of the beautiful Allie
gheny river. In camp the girls will
live in the huge old Mansion House.
This building has about twenty-five
rooms and big porches and is full
of the hooks and cranies so dear to
the feminine heart All the rooms
are open to the sunshine and the
breezes that sweep up the Allegheny.
Here the real work of the summer
will be taken up and the girls will
not only raise crops, but the crops
will be the direct means of raising
strong healthy girls. Under the lead
ership of Miss Grace Brogan, the
"farmerettes" will be taught to plant.
till the ground and harvest the crops.
The physical training the girls will
receive in camp will not consist
simply of the work they do in the
fields, but under the leadership of
Miss Helene Burckhalter they will
be put through a daily course of
athletic training. Hiking" will be
on the program and the girls will
be taught to follow in the foot steps
of their mothers, who thought moth
ing of walking a mile or two, long
before the advent of the street car
and the automobile.
However, it will not be all work
and no play, for the "farmerettes"
will have their regular time for
wholesome recreation and may swim.
boat, dance, swing in the hammocks
on the spacious porches or play

WHAT THEY LEARNED

VTYHAT the housing committee
Wv saw at Yorkship Village,
near Camden. Wednesday,
cannot be picked up bodily
and incorporated in the build
ing program to be adopted for Har-
risburg. but it afforded a fine lesson
in careful and systematic planning
to meet the needs of the people.
Even though it may be admitted
that some mistakes have been made,
the truth is apparent that the plan
ners know what they are talking
about, when they say in their pros
pectus that while "Yorkship Village
is not model town, it is a group of
comfortable we'll planned homes"
The difference between Yorkship Viii
lage and the average town is that
Yorkship being built during the war
by the Government, was built so as
to afford comfortable homes in
healthful surroundings for the ship
workers, who were needed to man
the rapidly growing plant of the
New York Shipbuilding Corporation,
with whom the Government had
placed large rush orders for large
sized ships.
Without any real program, nearly
all towns grow little by little and
haphazard. One man builds a hotel
and another builds nearby a group
of stores. Cottages spring I'D here
and there and surround the busi-
ness center. Business pushes in and
surrounds the nearby cottages cut
ting off their light and destroying
their privacy. Real estate specula-
tors appear and build the greatest
number of houses possible on the
smallest piece of ground. Real es-
tate values jump and thereupon
your poorly paid worker either has
to take crowded unsanitary quarters
or go far from the center where
prices remain more reasonable. Such
town has no real plan for develop
ment, but like Topsy "It just grows"
until suddenly it comes to realize
that it is a full grown town and
then calls in experts to try and cure
the many deformities which have de-
veloped in its haphazard growth.
1t is not so with Yorkship Village.
There, thanks to the foresight of
those interested in its creation, ex-
perts were called in before the build
ings were started and the whole plan
of the town, its streets, it's homes,
its houses, its churches, its clubs,
hotels, public buildings and play
grounds were all thought out ahead
and planned for, so that the many
ills that the average town expert
ences have been avoided.
That is what impressed the hous-
ing committee most-the need for
much thought, and care and discus
sion in the formulation of a pro-
gram for Harrisburg. Nothing but
the best will content those who are
back of the movement here, and if
we can show the world some new
things, why all the better. Harris
burg has done that before and the
the project indicates that while they
may take their time to the solu-
ton of the problem the result will
be eminently satisfactory.

Now that the cold March winds
are a thing of the past, the wild
fICWers are rapidly increasing in
numner. A walk through Wildwood
Par!'. or along the Conodoguinet
creek, or about the mountains at
Rockville, is rare treat for the
lover of wild flowers. In the noun
tains the trailing arbutus is now to
be found in abundance. Those who
know the flower only as it is sold
in the markets, tied with wet, dirty
string into tight punches, can have
little idea of the joy of finding the
pink blossoms freshly opened among
the dead leaves, or growing in broad
patches among the moss and pine
needles. In the same locality will
be found that first harbinger of
spring the hepatica. 1t has now dis
cardeG it's worn-out foliage in favor
Of a Fl Iesh set of leaves, some of the
flowers are purple, others white, oc-
casionally n cluster will be found
with a fragrance resembling that of
sweet violets. A walk through Wild
wood Park will be Il revelation 20
one not familiar with this most
beautiful of our parks. In shady To-
c2tiOEs will be found the beauti-
full white flowers of the bloodroot,
some are quite large with from
seven TO ten petals, others smaller
with as many as twenty petals. They
must be seen in their native haunts
however to be appreciated as the
petals soon fall off after being
pluci;cd. The root is reddish and is
filled with a blood-like juice, as is
also the stem. AS the fluid stains
whatever it touches-hence It's
va;uc to the Indians as a war paint
ore should be careful in plucking
the flowers. There also will be found
the spring beauties, a delicate flower
with leaves resembling blades of
grass, the flowers have five petals
are light pink or white, with pink
lines, converging near the base. \
little further on, large patches of
dogs tooth violets will be found. OF
.ourve they are not violet at all
as they belong to the lily family.
Many persons prefer the name of
adder's tongue, which is more ap-
propriate, the flower bearing some
rcScm blance to a snakes head, while
the spotted leaves bring to mind Its
skin. There, too, will be found the
gol ien corydalis, dainty little yellow
sacks resembling the bleeding heart;
the yellow cinquefoik. looking like
gold dollars scattered over the
ground; and the toothwort or Grim
kleruot, which takes it's name from
its root which is crinkled with tooth
like appendages. These are some
times eaten and taste much like
woIer cress. The flowers are pale
pink or white in loose clusters. On
tho hillsides will be found the saxl-
fragc, the rock cress and last but
net least, the white hearts some
times called Dutchman's breeches.
These are usually found in shady
locations where there is rich leaf
mold. the flowers are white tipped
with yellow and resemble the ia
miliar bleeding heart the leaves are
finely dissected and lace-like.

THE FRONT-AT LAST
[By Major William S. Manning.

[By Major William S. Manning,l
Now am free to do, and give, and
pay,
Not stinting one for other debts I
owe.
My debts were these: To smile with
friendly show.
On all about, too close for other
play;
To say to all the nothings could say.
And miss the silence which my
friends would know;
To heed the clock that licked to
and fro
To ill-done tasks, long drawn, di-
luting day.
But now I am come to a wide, free,
space
OF easy breath, where my straight
road doth lie;
And all my debts are funded in this
place
To one debt. tho the figures
mount the sky.
My debts are one, my foe before my
face
I shall not mind the paying when
I die.

WE STILL ARE CRIPPLES

How many of us realize we are
cripples? We have the usual quota
of legs and arms, fingers and toes,
but we're cripples just the same.
Samuel Hopkins Adams made the
discovery while studying reconstruc-
ton of manned soldiers at Walter
Reed General Hospital, Washington.
Describing the incident in the May
number of the Red Cross Magazine,
he writes:
7 suppose you regard yourself as
a whole man. demanded one of the
vocational therapy experts.
Looking myself hastily over to
make sure that I had not lost any
thing in the surgical ward, I replied
that ] could count the usual number
of arms, legs and other appurten-
ances.
" All right said the expert, but
you're sort of a cripple at that
You're atrophied.'

tions. When November of next year
is reached and the people have an
other opportunity to express their
views on national affairs, there will
be such an overwhelming anti-Wi!-
son vote rolled up as will seal, for
years to come, the fate of the party
that he has brought to ruin. 1t will
make no difference whether Wilson
himself is the candidate or whether
We have a man of his choosing, the
people will recognize the brand and
repudiate it with emphasis.
How can any man who believes
in the principles of the Democratic
party vote for such men?" asks Sem
ator Bailey. The answer is that he
cannot. And it follows that such
men will vote for the candidate who
will do the most to draw the country
away from the political heresie3
the past six years and restore the
principles of representative govern
ment that have given the United
States the commanding position that
she now holds among the world
powers. That candidate will be the
nominee of the Republicans, who
will represent in his own person
and in the party whose standard he
bears, a record of achievement, of
strict adherence to the mandates OF
the Constitution and of constant ef-
fort to upbuild and protect Ameri-
can industries that will be an ire
sistible lodestone to those voters who
still maintain a pride of country.

DOWN WITH DICTATORS,

E,NonMLR SENA1OR JoSEPH w.
BAILEY, while he insists that
he did not read himself out of
the Democratic party in his recent
speech at Newark. renews his at
tacks on the present day leaders of
that party in a way that leaves
nothing to be desired on the part
of Republicans. For several years."
says Mr.. Bailey, "our leaders have
been pandering to Populists, Social
lists and political nondescripts, until
they have now adopted almost
everything which the old Populist
party advocated and many of the
things which the Socialist party has
advocated"
The result of the election of last
November demonstrated the truth of
Senator Bailey's statement. Thor
Dughly disgusted with the trend of
Democracy, as taught by the men
who assume to speak for it at the
present time, self-respecting and
conservative Democrats are leaving
the Wilson party and giving their
allegiance to the party of patriotism
that still recognizes the Constitution
as an instrument that insures the
continuance of our prosperity as a
Nation, If its principles are adhered
to. The drift of sentiment away
from Wilson, reflected in the last
elections, is continuing, stimulated
from day to day as reports from
Paris tell of the un-American sur
renders he is making in order to
bring success to his League of Ma
