SPOON IN PARKS?
ONLY IN LIGHT.
ANSWERS MAYOR
Mr.. Keister Learns He Is to
Censor Future
Dances
AND THAT'S SUFFICIENT
Headings Lovelorn Only to
Be Aided in Moon
Observations

Daniel l.. Keister, Lord High
Mayor of Harrisburg, put in very
uncomfortable half hour mayoring
this morning.
Mr.. Keister has just been inform
ed, albeit unofficially, that under a
recent act of the Legislature he
would officially be censor for all the
city's public dance halls. "And the
shimmy's just coming in," His
Honor was told.
The Mayor has no plans to serve
in such a capacity, absolutely, he
declared. He wants to read that act,
he added. 1t appears that the Leg
islature in its wisdom, said all public
dance halls must pay license fee
each year. And If everything is not
o. K. then it's up to the Mayor to
revoke the license. The Mayor has
not shaken a foot in many years and
he admits he doesn't know what's
what in that line
Added to his troubles the Mayor
had notice served on him that the
Mayor of Reading has agreed that
he, for one, is not too old to recog-
nize that in the spring time a young
mans thoughts turn to love. No
stree! So Readings lovelorn are to
have a special section of the city's
parks darkened for their observation
of the moon. Hand-holding will be
permitted and the police will see
that rowdies are kept off.
will you permit spooning in our
parks?" the Mayor was asked. Not
exactly" parried the harassed Ex-
ecutive. That is to say we won't
purpose"
Say, who is the Mayor of Read
ing?" queried the inquiring one.
His name is Filbert," was the
answer.

Legislature Will
Close on June 26

Steps to bring the legislative ses-
sion of 1919 to a close on June 26,
will be taken tonight at confer
ence of legislative leaders and it i;
probable that the House resolution
fixing June 19 as the date for ad-
journment will be amended this week
in the Senate committee to provide
that the session shall end on June 26.
Meetings will also be held by leg
islative leaders in the next few days
to determine upon revenue policy
and it is intimated that no additional
taxes will be levied. The appropria-
ton committees are planning to re-
port out some of their bills next
week.
Governor Sproul, who will be here
late to-day, is insistent on the pas
sage of the administration annaamn-
sation amendment bill.

Allies of Germany
Gather to Learn
Terms of Peace
CLEMENCEAUN
LEADING ROLE
Wilson Is Delayed
on Way When Tire
Is Punctured

St. German, June 2
Austria was to-day given
fifteen days to reply to the
terms of peace presented by
the Allied nations.
The entire treaty was not pre-
sented to the Austrians to-day
and the fifteen days stipulation
with regard to their reply, there
fore, refers only to the portion
of the terms handed them at to-
days session.
M. Clemenceau, president of
the Peace Conference, was the
first prominent figure to arrive
at the meeting at which the
terms of peace we're presented.
Lansing and White Arrive
Secretary of State Lansing and
Henry White were the first Ameri-
can representatives to arrive for the
function. They were followed by
Arthur j. Balfour, Premier Orlando,
of Italy, and Premier Paderewski, of
Poland.
At 1910 o'clock President Wilson
had not arrived and the ceremony of
presentation was delayed somewhat.
The President, however, reached ST.
Germain at 1914 o'clock. A punct-
ure in the tire of his automobile had
held him up on the way.
Army Car Commandeered
President Wilson's automobile mis-
hap occurred at st. Cloud. While
the punctured tire was being mended
an army car passed. It was COM
mandeered by the Presidents party
and the President and Rear Admiral
Grayson drove at high speed on to
st. German.
The Austrian representatives ar
rived at 1882 o'clock, entering the
chamber by a rear entrance. The
delegates were attired in conven-
tional morning dress. The Austrians
were escorted in by an Italian Off
Ger.
"Tigcr's" Address Is Brief
Immediately upon their arrival,
at 1879 o'clock, the session was
formally opened by announcement of
the head usher. Premier Clemen-
ceau, president of the Peace Con-
ference, Immediately began his ad-
dress. NJ. Clemenceau spoke for
only three minutes.
Paul Dutasta. general secretary of
the Peace Conference, presented the
terms to the Austrians at 1887
o'clock.
DR.. Karl Renner, the Austrian
chancellor and head of the deleea-
ton, then began an address in
French. DR.. Renner opened with a
complaint at the delay in the pre-
sentation of the peace terms. The
chancellor declared the Austrian re-
public was entirely free from the
Hapsburg dynasty. 1t would never
have declared war itself, he asserted
The chancellor concluded his al
dress at 1850. After DR.. Renner's
address Premier Clemenceau asked
u any one else desired to speak.
There was no response and he dc
clarcd the ceremony ended.
