Turks Usually Won
"In arguments OF this kind the
Turk was usually successful. and

State Forestry
Work Expanding

Questions pertaining to Standard
zation of contracts for cutting TIM
Der on State forests and methods to
be followed in such operations were
deferred by the State Forestry Com
mission yesterday until a special
meeting on November II after an
extended discussion of reports on the
cutting on various tracts submitted
by Commissioners Robert S. Conk-
lin, j. T. Rothrock, Clifford Pinchot
and Henry w. Shoemaker. Changes
were ordered in the manner of cut
ting on the Simcox contract and con-
tracts made in various sections and
not yet acted upon officially will be
considered at length later in the
month.
The Commission not only adopted
resolutions favoring purchase of
lands for forest reserves on the Ohio
watershed, but agreed to set aside
half of available funds for that pur-
pose following a presentation of the
subject by James B. SAMSON, of
Pittsburgh. Matters of poisoned
grain being placed in State forests
to kill off crows will be taken up
with the Game Commission.
The Commission will probably ask
]. Horace Mcfarland, of this city. to
look over big tracts in Potter county
which will be turned into a State
park and not be allowed to be cut.
Some 500 acres in the Ole Bull for
est of Potter county were bought.

State Plans Aid to
the Foreign People

Plans whereby over 60 per cent of
the foreign-speaking population of
Pennsylvania would be brought
within touch of the educational ad-
vantages offered by the State, prac-
teal Americanzation undertaken and
at the same time United States
methods of sanitation and proper
living taught are being worked out
by the State Departments of Health
and Public Instruction.
Community service instead of
State officers is to be the means of
reaching these people and the school
officials and teachers, the medical
men, State medical inspectors and
nurses and health officials are to be
the force. In a way the local dis
pensaries of the Department of
Health will be the headquarters and
the instruction will be given in
practical way along the lines sug-
gested by labor organizations and
other bodies voicing the desires of
their people.
Four community organizers who
have been at work in Western Penn
sylvania have joined the State De-
partment of Health force for this
work. They are Miss Mary e. Dill
Ion, Philadelphia; Miss Martha
Goodeonugh and Miss Emma H.
Howe, of Reading, and Miss Bertha
]. Wold, of Austin. They have had
experience in establishing commun-
ity centers and will try out the new
system this month.

Congressman Henry w. Watson,
or Langhorne, has been appointed

Reports to the State Department
of Mines to-day indicate a steady re-
turn of men to work in a number of
the southwestern and central coun-
ties. The reports from Allegheny
and Washington, however, do not in
dicate much change.
Electric companies in ST. Mary'S,
Kane. Ridgway, Johnsonburg and
other places in the west central sec
tion of the State have filed notices
of increases and changes in rates
with the Public Service Commission.
York county commissioners arc
coming here next week to submit

Ex-Ideutenant Governor Frank B.

landlord in Philadelphia who did not
agree to be in accord with the State
Welfare program as a "shylock." The

work in driving into retirement the

State Game protectors have

mers Snyder, Nelson Moore, Wilbur
Goshorn and John Collier, of Shade
Gap, who were rounded up by Game
Protector Ray o. Dunkle, of Dry
Run, assisted by c. B. Baum, a
travelling protector from this city.
These men had been hunting tur-
keys in Huntingdon. Franklin and
Fulton counties. Evidence has been
gathered of illegal turkey killing in
Blair, Cambria, Mifflin and other
counties and protectors are on the
trail of men from Altoona and Johns
town. In all the Commissions men
are working to run down over
twenty-five complaints of illegal tur-
key killing.

Emphatically asserting that thou
sands of unfortunate sufferers have
been led into taking wrong treat
ments under the old and false belief
that Uric Acid" causes rheumatism.
Pastor H. w. Reed says:
AS do some of our highest medi-
cal authorities, l now know that
Uric Acid never did and never will
cause rheumatismi But it took me
many years to find out this truth.
/ learned how to get rid of my rheu-
matism and recover my health and
strength, through reading The Inner
Mysteries of Rheumatism a work
written by an authority who has
scientifically studied the cause and
treatment of rheumatism for over
twenty years. 1t was, indeed, a ver-
table revelation!
'1 had suffered agony for years
from rheumatism and associated dis
orders, and Mrs. Reed was tortured
with the demon neuritis and talked
so much about Uric Acid that our
minds seemed poisoned. But the
Inner Mysteries of Rheumatism
made it all clear to us and now we
are both free from suffering and
misery we. endured so many years.

the world to convert! For me to
discard the old Uric Acid theory,
and what I now know to be abso-
lutely false, for The new, scientific
understanding of the cause and cure
of rheumatism, was like asking me
to change my religious beliefs! But
did change, and it was a fortunate
day for me and mire when L did

NOTE: The Inner Mysteries OF
rheumatism referred to above by
Pastor Reed lays bare facts about

TO S3,909.12 and mark the beginning
of tax payments which 1t is believed
will run into millions of dollars an
nually and take the place of the
direct and collateral inheritance
taxes to a great extent
The tyanSfer inheritance tax Is
collected on all property within
Pennsylvania and belonging to a
nonresident at time of death. Here
tofore, under the inheritance tax
acts, the personal property of non
resident decedent was exempt The
Auditor General has called atten-
ton to the fact that the act provides
that no corporation or national
bank within this State may transfer
any stock belonging to an estate Of
a decedent unless a certificate show
ing payment of the tax has been
given by the Auditor General under
penalty of being liable for the tax
and a fine of $1,000.
Pennsylvania is at present collect
ing inheritance taxes under three
acts, the 5 per cent collateral inheri-
tance tax act of 1887 the per cent
direct inheritance tax act of 1917,
which taxes the clear value, and the
new transfer Inheritance tax act of
1913. The latter is effective only
from June 90. Until all taxes are
collected upon the estates of deced-
ents dying prior to June 90, 1919,
the Commonwealth will continue to
receive the taxes under the three
acts.

The State Commission to oodify
and revise the banking laws of Penn
sylvania resumed its work in Phila-
delphia yesterday. One of the plans
which remain to be carried out is
some provision for comforting upon
trust companies the power to do
commercial banking. There are two
reasons for granting this authority
One is that the Federal law now au-
thorizes national banks to compete
with State institutions by doing a
trust company business. such as act
ing in a fduciary capacity. and to
meet this competition it is regarded
as just that the trust companies
should be given banking powers. A
second reason is that many trust
companies have become members OF
the Federal Reserve Bank system
