phin county will be represented at a
meeting to be held Monday night at
s o'clock in Fahnestock Hall, the
Y. NJ. c. A. building. when plans
for the coming campaign for the
Armenians and Syrian relief are to
be discussed Every church in the
county has been asked to send its
minister and two laymen to the gath
ering.
In the campaign being put on for
the suffering Armenians Dauphin
county is asked TO raise $3S, not
large sum of money.
The committee in charge of the
campaign is Chairmaned by c. w.

re<ary, and Al. K. Thomas treasurer.

The Armenian relief campaign
has been put in charge of the
churches, because, as set forth in a
letter from Chairman Burtnett and
Secretary Heathcote, the conditions
in Armenia and Syria to-day appeal
to all those merciful instincts of
pity begotten in the hearts of the
followers of the true God"
The most awful prosecutions that
have oven befallen humanity have
been visited on the Amenians and
Syrians, Mr.. BURNETT points out.
There have been many thousands of
deaths and four million people to-
day are without food, while there are
100000 orphans in the devastated
country.

be open to the general public, as
we'll as the churchmen.

Canadian Overseas Regiment will be
one of the speakers Monday night.
Captain Morse saw services abroad
for several years.

One hour less sleep tomorrow

ing law means for the average Har-
risburger. Those who do not get up
in time for church, as a rule crawl
from their down couches in time for
their midday meals and these incl
dentals of life will be conducted by

fective for another seven months

procla station of Mayor Daniel L.
keister, who makes the SUGGESTION
to avoid confusion concerning the bill

for the moving ahead of the clocks.
Whistles on industrial plants will

If husbands arrive home with their

the morning. wives shall have no
cause to scold.
But though some of the Capitol
clocks show advanced time. the en-
ployes to-day did not stop working
earlier than usual by thu actual
time, and city bars and other
establishments will not close one
hour earlier as a result Of the Mayors
proclamation. Everything will be
conducted on the old schedule until

For $4,000 Volunteers

CoblenZ, March 90. = The an
nouncement by the War Department of
its intention to send from the United
States volunteers enlisted for use in re-
placing members of the permanent army
of occupation who desire to leave the
service reached Third Army headquar-

The announcement was made by the

among national guardsmen who are
eager to return home as soon as pos

PEACEPACT FOR
HUNS is TO BE
STERN AND JUST
Points Calmly Framed in the
Spirit of Moderation, Says
High Authority

London, March 29.-The efforts
which the British delegation at the
Peace Conference is making to pro-
cure for the world the clearest pos
sible peace will bear fruit in the
peace treaty soon to be made pub
lie, the Paris correspondent of the
Westminster Gazette declares.
He states on the authority of "a
hlgh-placed parsonage" that the con-
ference does not mean to violate ter
ritorial rights, and that the fears
on this point felt by interested peo-
pie in Europe are quite unfounded
Pact Calmly Shaped
The correspondent says that points
OF the treaty drawn up by Premier
Lloyd George and which will serve
as the basis for discussion. have been
deliberately framed in a spirit of
great moderation, because it is felt
that the treaty must be something
acceptable and desirable.
Certainly the peace will be a
stern one for Germany" the cores
pondent continues, but the greatest
care is being taken that it shall be
Just to the eyes of moderate and well
informed Germans. The principle of
self-determination will be rigorously
kept in mind with regard to the allo-
cation of territories" The CORES
pondent quotes his informant as re-
marking:
Must BE No Casus Bell
There must be no casus belli left
to Germany, otherwise you will have
blocks of people clamoring for an
alliance with the fatherland." The
correspondent points out, however.
that Germany had deliberately Gre
ated German-populated wedge on
essentially Polish territory. and that
Germany will have only herself to
blame IL she finds her nationals I'M
der Polish administration British
influence. the correspondent asserts.
Is nevertheless definitely arroyed
against inflated pretensions."

LETTER TO THE
EDITOR

Dear Sir:
Down with Mayor Keister! He
has issued proclamation calling
upon Harrisburgers to move the
clocks up at 10 o'clock this eve
ming, instead of 2 o'clock to-mor-
row morning.
1t is evident that the Mayor is
a married man.
Has he no thought for the fell
lows who are not married, and to
whom Saturday night is girl
nisht?' Why should Adam and
Eve skip an hour in each others
company?
1 wonder how the Mayor gets
that way"

COUNCIL TO HELP
MOTHERS OF 18TH
TO SEE REVIEW
Mayor TO Apply For Grand
stand Privilege For Phila-
delphia Pageant
TO BE GUESTS OF HONOR
Women Who Wear the Gold
Star to Receive First
Consideration

Mothers of the boys from Harris
burg who will parade with the
Twenty-eig Division as part of
the big homecoming reception to
that unit to be given In Philadel-
phia late in May, may have an op-
portunity to view their sons swing
ing down Broad street from places
in the big stands to be erected in
that city.
Mayor D. L. Keister announced he
will communicate with Mayor Smith,
of Philadelphia, and the other Off
cials in charge of the celebration in
that city, asking what arrangements
should be made here to provide tt
place for any mothers from Harris
burg who want to go to see the pa
rade. Philadelphia councils appro-
priated 100000 for the big recep-
ton, part of which will be spent
for the construction of a gigantic
stand to seat the thousands of
mothers of the returning boys and
also the mothers of the brave heroes
of the division who died in serv-
ice.
Mayor Keister said he will ascer-
tain what arrangements must be
made and If any councilmanic action
is necessary here will bring the
question to the attention of the City
commissioners. 1t is understood
that the Philadelphia committee will
be requested to reserve places for
the Harrisburg mothers and send
cards to this city to be given to
those entitled to view the parade
from the stands.
City Council in Harrisburg at
present has no authority to make
any appropriations for celebrations
or receptions of this kind officials
said, and it was suggested that
while the Legislature is in session
an act should be introduced and
supported which would givp cities
of the third class the same right
as those of the first aui second
class in making appropriations for
such a purpose.

Memel or Libau, the German g9
ernment says that "all necessary a.
cilities for the speediest possible
landing and transit of General Hal
lier's army to Poland will be pro-
vided."
Approve German Reply
According to the Berlin Tageblatt
all parties in the Weimar National
Assembly, including the Independent
Socialists, approved of the govern
ments reply to the Entente note. The
German newspapers generally sup
port the governments position. The
Socialist Forwaerts, for instance,
says that Hungary's reception of the
note recently sent to her by the En-
tente should have taught the Entente
powers that it is mot only inhuman
but foolish to treat defeated oppon-
ents as slaves upon whom any hui
initiation can be imposed"
