viii Preserve Historic Spots.

The western front is to retain some
Of Its battletields, ut least. as war
memorials. The decision of the French
government to preserve n their pres
ent condition selected sites, and to pro-
hibit any alteration will be welcomed
by many who feared that the disfigur-
Ing and mercenary hands OF the cafe
prOprietors. the souvenir sellers. the
restaurants and the hotel keepers
would Obliterate historic spots In their
efforts to provide attractions for the
coming thrOngs Of tourists. Among the
places already decided upon are the
forts at Verdun, the trenches Of SOis-
sons, the underground mazes Of Mou-
quet farm. the ruins Of Bapaume. and
the mangled remains Of Pozieres.

how few and far between are the bird

less than half dozen varieties. Espe-
cially In this part Of the country Is 1t
desirable that we should conserve
what we have left of the feathered

c. OF G. TO HOLD
ANNUAL PICNC
ON AUGUST IA
Committee Headed by Mercer
B. Tate Is Making Ar
rangements

The annual picnic of the Harrisburg
Chamber of Commerce will be held
August IA, it was announced at the
office of the Chamber this morning. 1t
was not stated where the picnic will
take place, and this part of the ar
rangements will be withheld as a sur
prise until a later date.
The success of the June Joy Jaunt,
held at the Colonial Country Club last
Friday afternoon, was so great that
the four hundred or more members of
the Chamber who were there, are ex-
pressing considerable pleasure at the an
nouncement that the annual picnic will
be held in the near future.
A highly capable committee will have
charge of the picnic. 1t has been prom
ised that in spite of the great expecta-
tions which last Fridays picnic has
aroused, the coming event will in no
respect fall short of expectations. AL
ready tentative plans for lively enter
tainment are taking shape. and it goes
without saying, say Chamber members,
that the lunch and supper will be
equally as good as those which have
featured past events staged by the
Chamber.
The name of the picnic grounds will
not be the only element of surprise
that will enter into the day, it is said.
Some modes of entertainment which
will be devised, are calculated to add
greatly to the pep" and ginger" of
the affair. Complete details of the
plans will be announced later, it is
promised.
The committee in charge follows /:
