F. Hass ler, Immediately after the Fubllc Service Commission approved the rtmnnKtkA nurnhnaa nf SnsntlphAnna Water Company lines by the city. Negotiations were started some time ago by the municipality to acquire the Fifteenth ward water mains from the company. Finally the corporation advised it would sell all Its rights In Susquehanna township and the ward, annexed to the ctty in 1920, for $54,000.

Commissioner Hassler, with the approval of Council, accepted this offer, and the endorsement of the sale by the Service Commission was sought.

In the Fifteenth ward, the city also acquires from the company rights In Susquehanna township east to the Lower Faxton township line, nnd through the seetion of Susquehanna recently annexed to bring the John Harris High School site within the city limits.

As a result, the high school also will be connected to the city system as soon us the necessary mains can be laid. When the arrangements to 1 buy the Susquehanna lines were stnrted it was thought that the city wouid control the system In Forney's extension, known as the new addition south of Penbrook. Investigation, however, showed that the Extension Water Company, supplying Ten brook borough, claimed the right in the adjacent territory, but City Solicitor John R. Geyer, at the direc tion of City Council, probably will contest the question in court. The Fifteenth ward consumers, when connected with the city supply, will pay the same rates as usera throughout the municipality.

Users on lines In the township, Including Progress, will continue to get water through the lines from the Hum melstown Water Company, and pay the same rates as at present. Commissioner Hassler also sai he will recommend to City Council next week the engagement of James H. Fuertes, consulting engineer, to make a survey of the present distribution lines of the Water Department. He recommended such action in his annual report earlier in the year, and called attention to the fact that many of the mains have been in use for years and definite information showing their locations Is lacking. At the same time suggestions for lines, to meet future needs will be made.

F. H. Weed, one of the engineers working under Mr. Fuertes. who was an Inspector on much of the recent water supply extension work in the city, probablj will make the survey if Council decides to have the work done now.

Funds to pay for It will be from the Water Department emergency account. BUSINESS MEN VISIT NEW CHILDREN'S HOME The American Business Men's Club held their regular meeting yesterday on the site of the new Children's Home of Harrisburg at Bonny meads. This was the third of c. series of civic club luncheons on the fifteen acre site of the new horn. Rotary Club met there last Monday, the Khvanis Club last Thursday and on next Monday the Exchange Club will visit, the new site.

Henderson Gilbert, chairman of the building committee for the new home, outlined to the club yesterday the building program and the plan of operating on the modified cottage system. A campaign for the building fund will be raised in November. R. B. Kice is chairman of the campaign.

The question of a new. name for the site is being put before the various groups which visit it. Since the remainder of the Boyd farms operate under the name of Bonnymeads, it has been requested that the grounds for the new Children's Home of Harrisburg be given another name. Suggestions, are being submitted by the visiting groups and in the near future there will a judging and a rechristening of that part of Bonnymeads which has been purchased by the Children's Home. candor VH, why can't I have a skin like other girls?

WII.MAMSrOHT, Sept. 23.

JVDC.K BENMAMIX H. REX SHAW'S 'fight for honest elections" In Philadelphia lias ceased to lie a local Issue, Governor Plnchot declared In a statement here to day. The Judge, one of three appointive of Governor Plnchot who were defeated at the September primaries, is asking a recount In certain districts In his wntest against leopold C. Glass for the Republican nomination for Philadelphia municipal court judge. "1 am deeply Interested in the result of Judge ltcnsliaw'g tight for honest elections In Philadelphia," the Governor said.

"Every decent citizen should be. I am also deeply Interested in the fact that tills fight has ceased to be local Issue and Is holm: watched with the keenest attention by the press and the people all over Pennsylvania. It is worth watching for Judge Kenshaw is tight ins the fight of good, government for all of us." Judge Renshaw was appointed by Governor Plnchot to 1111 a vacancy on the Philadelphia Municipal Court bench and was a cundidate for nomination at the primaries. By Staff Correspondent. Laporte, Sept.

23. After a busy day spent in Williamsport, Muncy and the Laurelton State Village, Governor Plnchot to day swung Into Laporte, Sayre and Towanda on his third tour of Inspection to State owned and aided institutions. Last night he addressed the Williamsport Chamber of Commerce and In addition to giving an accounting of his administration, told how politics had been eliminated from the Department of Welfare. He said In part: Politics Reviewed "The Department of Welfare covers the work the State of Pennsylvania in caring for criminals, for the insane, and, what is more important, for the sick all over this Commonwealth. When this administration came Into office, the Department of Welfare was honeycombed with politics.

It was serving the politicians first, and the wards of the State got what was left. "We have changed all that. Already we have driven politics completely out, and the welfare work of the State is being carried on for the benefit of the people of Pennsylvania and not for that of any political interest whatsoever. AVide Variance in Rates 'The "hospitals used to be filled with politics, and with political patients who got free service when they were abundantly able to pay for iWThere was neither Intelligence nor justice in the method by which the State's money was distributed. Some hospitals were starved and some scandalously overpaid.

In January, 1923, the amount which different hospitals got from the State for treating a free patient for one day varied from fifty three cents to fifty one dollars. The needy sick paid the price of such discrimination in poorer service, and that means in health and life. "This Administration has succeeded in putting subsidies to hospitals on an absolutely Impartial basis. To day each hospital gets' for one day of free service exactly the same amount that Is received by every other hospital of its class, the money of the State secures the maximum relief for the poor, and favoritism ha? been absolutely wiped out. Even Handed Justice "The amount approved for hospital service this spring was more than greater than two years ago, but, great as that additional service is, its value is small compared with the fact that all hospitals were treated with even handed justice, no one being preferred above another.

"This is of far greater consequence than appears upon the surface, for no single influence has been more powerful In corrupting public life in Pennsylvania than the threat, held over the heads of right minded legislators by members of the gang, that their hospital appropriations would be cut if they voted against, the gang. I'rgcs Lump Sum "There Is just one way to take this matter out of politics for good, and that is to appropriate to the State aided institutions in a lump sum the money to be divided among them wholly upon the basis of the service actually rendered in accordance with the official figures of the Department of In this way, politics will be absolutely eliminated and the sole consideration" in distributing the money will be the proper consideration, namely, service actually rendered to the indigent sick. That Is a square deal, and politics can find no place in it, which is aa it should be." Jesse S. Bell, president of the Chamber of Commerce presided at the dinner last night. Arrangements for the affair were in charge of.

William S. Millener, the secretary, Hugh Gllmore, mayor, was present. The ball room of the Lycoming Hotel where the meeting was held was crowded and applications for places had to be refused, by the Chamber of 1 Speaks at School Representatives W. Clyde Harer and Charles W. Bidelspacher, from Lycoming county attended last night's meeting and yesterday the Governor's party left Lewisburg he spent the night and visited the Laurelton State Village.

On his return he stopped and made a short address to the students of the Mlfflinburg school. This was an added feature of tbe trip as no stop had been scheduled there. Local officials prevailed upon him on the grounds that the public schools are subsidies of the State. Union county State employes were greeted at the Lewisburg courthouse and from there Mr. Plnchot left for an inspection of the State Industrial Home for Women, at Muncy.

Here he was met by the following trustees, Mies Mary Stecker, Miss Florence Dei bert. Miss Ella J. Stevenson and W. L. Brittan.

I I i 4 READY TO WEAR CLOTHES MADE FOR ALL SIZES Harry Jacksoti of Philadelphia Tells Retail Clothiers at Penn Harris The short, portly man and the tall, slender fellow with stooping shoulders have lost one of their big difficulties of several years ago in the question of clothing that of getting suits to fit through general retail sources. The old condition where fitting applied largely to the person of average tulld has been removed, declared Harry Jackson, of Phlla delphia, president of the Pennsylvania Retail Clothing Dealers Asso elation, speaking before a gathering of Harrisburg and Central Pennsylvania retail dealers at a meeting in the Penn Harris Hotel last night. "The manufacturing and merchandising of ready to wear clothes Is, In every respect, a science," Mr. Jackson said. "Whether the cus tomer Is a short, portly man who has difficulty lacing his shoes, the average size man, or the tall, slender fellow with stooping shoulders, the clothier usually succeeds in fitting him In a satisfactory manner.

It has been only a few years when those individuals considered the fitting of them in clothes' was the province of the custom tailor. "Colors and styles have been the subject of intensive application and sudy. The trained clothing salesman to daV knows film nut InaMnn. itively what fabric and Darticuinr model Is best adapted to his customer. The modern clothier will offer the best fabrics for certain seasons of the year.

In fact, through his influence and direcr Hons, special fabrics have been created, so that clothing will not be so heavy to increase the heat production of the body when a man is indoors, or so light as to reduce the body warmth when outdoors. "It is. therefore, obvious thut the retail clothier plays an Important part In the average man's life, be cause his efforts in this direction have Increased the efficiency of men In their professions and business." Mr. Jackson traced the growth and evolution of the clothing Industry during' the past twenty five He also spoke of the advantages of the Clothiers' Association. Other speakers during the meeting included: Benjamin Strouse, this city; O.

L. Underwood, Pottsville; William Keck, Reading, and Herbert Schmidt, of York, all former presidents of the association. Among others in attendance at the banquet and meeting were: John Bashore and Abe Shaniro.

ship at stopping places rather than to weather conditions. Mooring Must rroDiem Correspondence was introduced to show that the mooring mast at Detroit, which the Shenandoah was to use on the voyage, had been completed on August 10. Commander Lansdowne had desired to have the Shenandoah make a flight to Detroit to test the mast, but his recommendation was disapproved because the Shenandoah hud moored at masts on the Pacific coast without previous tests. The Navy Department did, write, however, that If Coiipiander Lansdowne regarded a trial flight as necessary it would be ordered. Captain Steele said that Commander Lansdowne made no further recommendation and presumably was not envlnced of thd necessity for a trial flight.

Ijinsdownc Wan Capable Turning the inquiry to weather conditions at the time flight was undertaken, Real Admiral Hilary P. Joties, president of the court, asked if there was 'any doubt in Captain Steele's mind from a study of the forecast that the flight should have been started. "There was no doubt In my mind on that point," Captain Steele replied. "The weather map was not perfect, but very few are perfect from a flying standpoint." "Was there anything predicted on the map which you thought would be menace to the Shenandoah?" asked the Admiral. "I saw nothing on the weather chart which I thought could not be passed or avoided by the Shenan uuan, tjapiain sieeie reniien Asked as to his opinion of com muiiuer umuuivne ability as a flying officer, Captain Steele said he considered him "a very capable and careful handler of airships." The commandant added in reply to other questions that he believed Commander Lansdowne handled situations with the Shenandoah in no way different from the very best Zeppelin practice.

These officials declared thexdirigl ble's commander, in suggesting a date for the flight, had been actuated by a belief that It would be impossible for the Shenandoah during the first week of September to take in all the state fairs she had been asked to visit In the Middle West. On August 4, he suggested that the flight be made the second Instead of the first week in Sen tember, saying that thereby addi uonai time would be gained for preparations at Scott Illinois, and Detroit, to receive and land or moor the craft on Us flight. The department in reply pointed out to him that the state fairs ran for several days, and that by leaving September; 2 on the schedule as ultimately adopted, most of them could be visited. The recommendation for the second week in September was disapproved, ranking officials of the department said to day, for that reason, and weather conditions did not enter Into dicision. Correspondence Closed The correspondence with Commander Lansdowne was conducted by the Bureau of Aeronautics and the Bureau of Navigation.

Secretary Wilbur was on the Pacific Coast, and he said to day that after his return here August 17, there was no correspondence with Commander Lansdowne on the trip. Captain Steele, the Lakehurst commandant, was in Washington 12 Lessons Classes will be held at our store, after, school hours, under the supervision of Mary Bush Hauck. No charge for lessons.
