Much Decorated Flaq.

At the New York Metropolitan mu- scum there has just been placed on view small flag, which possesses not a little sentimental interest. It was the official emblem of the first American organization which went to the front and the only one to remain under fire throughout the war. This was the American ambulance corps, which attracted volunteers from all parts of our country, and which was, of course, transferred to the service of our government (under the title, s. $. U. 5-646) as soon as the United States entered the struggle Through out years of suffering this American unit stuck grimly to it's task. It took part in every great French engage ment and many of it's men were buried on the field. Its flag was hon. ored whenever It appeared; it bears, in fact, no less than six Croix de Guerre, and it is decorated with two of the highly prized shoulder knots of fourrageres. which were affixed to 1t by Marshals Foch and Petain. A seventh cross is about to be added.

Psychological Tests
By BRIGGS

Following in the footsteps of Col
Pennsylvania is trying the intelli-
gence tests advocated as substitutes
for the regular collegiate entrance
examinations.
According to DR.. George Gaily
Chambers, director of admissions at
the university, 1874 applicants for ad-
mission have been subjected to the
intelligence tests. All had served in
the army and navy for at least a
year and many of them had been
overseas. Their service interfered
with the completion of their usual
preparatory work and for that rea-
son the university allowed them to
take the intelligence tests in place
of the usual examinations.
| At least ninety of these men have
successfully passed the examina-
tions and will be registered as
| freshmen as soon as they present
certificates of discharge from the
army or navy. Ten other cases were
| held in allegiance, to be decided
upon within the next day or two.
DR.. Lightner Wilmer, professor of
psychology, and corps of assistants
have been recording the result of
lne eAdHllnatlonS, and they are to
| be compared with the regular en-
! trance examinations. Their ulti-
| mate success will be determined by
the midyear examinations as com
pared to those students who have
taken the usual tests for admis-
sion.
This comparison will be the basis
for determining whether the psy-
Geological tests will be adopted gen
orally or not. Although Columbia
and several other universities intro
duced the intelligence tests as part
of their entrance requirements last
year this is the first experiment OF
! its kind by the University of Penn
| sylvania. Later in the year it is
planned to give the entire freshmen
class the tests and compare the re.
suits with the grades in regular
monthly quizzes.

WHAT THE CHURCHES DID

IN THE summing up of the COM
munity activities during the war
period one naturally thinks of
the splendid work of the churches
and religious organizations gener-
ally. These were back of the Gov
ernment at every point. Pastors and
people united intellectually in all
the important activities and pur-
poses of the war. setting aside their
own progress and giving of their
best thought and effort to the
achievement OF the vital things hay
ing to do with the prosecution of the
war.
Ministers and people We're actively
identified with the various agencies
and all the welfare work. pulpits
those who had charge of the several
Liberty Loan and other drives in the
interest of the financing of the Gov
ernment, and in the self-saCrii.cing
devotion to the interests of the Ma
ton these religious bodies were
found eNerung tnelr utmost strength
for the furtherance of the Govern
ments plans and purposes.
Not only did pastors labor at
home; they went abroad in several
instances for welfare work with the
fighting forces and many of them
spent weeks in the camps of this
country doing fine work and earning
the good will of all who observed
their patriotic activities. The fine
morale of the American Army was
due in large measure to these men
of the cloth, a number of whom
served throughout the struggle as
chaplains and welfare workers. Har-
risburg will not forget, in giving
proper credit, the religious organi-
cations which had so large a part
in the important and necessary work
back of the lines at home and among
the fighting forces abroad.

ROADS AS A PUBLIC INVESTMENT

concrete roads which will certainly
last twenty-five years, and all indi-
cations point to a larger life."
In closing he states; From all
available data, there is no doubt
that at the end of eight or ten years
of service, depending upon the
amount of traffic, the concrete
pavement is the most economical
one that can be constructed"
These are but some of the
reasons why i advocate a more per-
manent road than we have been
building in the past, and it is now
problems of traffic that we have to
solve, the most practical pavement
for a highway to-day is the one built
of concrete"
There are the conclusions of the
New York State Highway Commits
sioner Our own commissioner has
given Dapuhin county start in the
right direction. We have the
Dauphin- -Clarks Ferry road and the
Millersburg- -Elizabethville roads
both fine 1S-foot, reinforced con-
crete pavements as good, if not bet
ter. than those which Commissioner
Greene states cost $50 a mile per
year to maintain, and last at least
twenty-five years. There is the
Linglestown road, a 16-foot rein
forced concrete road, equal to the
above in every respect, but narrow
er because of the lighter traffic il
is expected to carry. This means
that Dauphin county has 14.85
miles of road now under construc-
ton which represent a real invest
ment, one that is sound from every
angle.
Let us get behind a road cam
paign that will make Dauphir
, second to none in the State for good
roads! Let us do it by building
| twenty y-five-year concrete roads and
not seven-year macadam roads.

McCidin RecOllectiOnS

In the Philadelphia Evening Led
ger Col George Nox Mccain is writ
ing an interesting series of reminis-
cences, some of which cluster about
Harrisburg. In a recent issue this
appears:
Robert NJ. Sturgeon. of York, was
in town last week. He was Bob"
Sturgeon in the old days at Harris
burg. That was thirty-five years
ago, when he was legislative reporter
for the Harrisburg Call. Bob Stur-
geon has been everything from cub
reporter to editor-in- chief, and for
years past has been identified in an
editorial capacity. with York news
papers. Mr.. Sturgeon is one of the
three living survivors of the corps
of legislative correspondents of the
session of 1885.

the Associated Press and Thomas M.

mask his identity under the sigma

postmaster of Harrisburg under

entering upon a career that was dcs-
tined to give him a Statewide repu-
tation as newspaper man and capi-
talist. Like Rodearmel, he was a
general newspaper correspondent

manent newspaper connections and
ultimately purchased the Harrisburg
Telegraph. which is to-day the most

WHY NOT HERE?

VTTHY should not Harrisburg

of Belgium?
Here is an opportunity for the
Chamber of Commerce, which has
done such excellent service in the
past year. to increase its popularity.
other cities have extended invita-
tions to King Albert and his con-
sort and Harrisburg, as the capital
city of the great Commonwealth OF
Pennsylvania, should extend the
same courtesy.
The Belgian rulers are of the type

All of the money we gave

without boasting that we gave gem

ice agencies we gave in fifties and
hundreds. And now the Chamber of
Commerce Memorial Committee
comes with a request for only $40
for each soldier. sailor or marine
who served during the war. Surely,
this is a modest request, and as a
thanksgiving Offering for the close
OF the war the least we can do is
to meet it promptly.
