I uS Zi''Laj LL Smiles aren't rationed yet. Don't let the corners of your mouth drop. Some people have something to look gloomy about and they're still smiling Far Above The Susquehanna The Harrisburg Natural His tory Society hiking group Sat urday afternoon, like Gaul, was divided into three parties, led by H. A. Ward, Dean Ellen berger and Charles M.

Froelv lich. We happened to join the sextette that followed CMF up the mountain (Bill Connelly, Homer Kreider, Mrs. G. Robert Jacobs, Miss Margaretta Etter, CMF and SEC), can testify more expertly on this phase, which, we know, was the best. We've heard of the rocky road to Dublin but it wasn't almost perpendicular and could not have been negotiated by any jauntiag car.

The tri partit division came when the trail along the side of the mountain came to a briar barrieried impasse Up to then we had been swishing through dead leaves, spotting late blooming flowers, admiring the multi colored foil age 'gainst the china blue bowl of sky Easy going! The sunshine distilling rubies and amethysts on the shimmering leaves of the dogwood The trail fringed with heart leafed asters, red clover, goldenrod, bouncing bet, evening primrose, purple heal all, yellow oxalis, starry chickweed, bush honeysuckle, oxeye daisies, snake root all giving the laugh to J. Frost. 'Bout this time the trail gave the laugh to us, saying it with briars and underbrush: "Sorry this is as far as I go." And so! HAW's group took the 'roundabout way to He patica Glen Dean Ellen berger's? Well, Ward hasn't yet gotten a full report; they had been they didn't exactly know where but "it was a grand day, wasn't it?" The rest of us (6) so many mountain goats, we knew the Appalachian Trail was on top of the mountain but how far? Blue October skies fromed one mirage then another and still another. Each rise looked like the trail Once Charlie ahead on hands and knees (and who wasn't?) proclaimed a "trail but it's going the wrong way." Whereupon the little band that wasn't there struck up, "There's a wrong, wrong trail a winding. Steep, shuffling, sliding rocks Leg piercing briars Puff! Puff! Puff! Hot sun Blue sky overhead Circling turkey buzzards scout ing the situation (maybe we wouldn't make it) Upward and onward No turning back now It was about this time that HLK (his first Nat.

Hist. oc. hike) let go with an oratorical outburst, startling in its eloquence and revealing of the general opinion of the Pine Hillers that must prevail among the laity Balanced peril ously on a jutting rock, he shouted with fervor: "Why I thought all you people did was to go out and look at the violets." That gives you an idea! Finally up, our feet firm on the Appalachian Trail and heading into the west. One of the women remembered that she had a six o'clock dinner date mmm! Gorgeous views north and south Golden splashes of maple The polished mahogany of the oaks Pausing to admire, under glasses, mossy forests Sun lower across the Sus quehanna, which Sara Lackey bad said, "looks like the lake fegions of Italy." More slands than you'd think. To the high point just above the Rockville bridge, drinking in the view and marvelling how in some unrecorded past the siver actually cut its way through the mountains We copied down the inscription on the marker for you: "1935.

James H. Darlington, Grand Chaplain of the Penna. Alpine Club, Bishop of AH Outdoors Blue Mountain Eagle Climbing Club." Bishop of All Outdoors? A title to conjure with. The Bishop was right up there and no mistake And what of the members of the BMECC? Who's president Twilight on the steep trail down into Roberts Valley, successfully hitching a ride with an obliging lady (Mrs. Ogelsby) and riding south while a red, red sun play hop, skip and jump on the horizon, finally disappearing, leaving a rose drenched sky, soon too swallowed into the night "Twilight and evening bell and after that the dark." Home late, carrying unforgettable pictures and beleiving all over again what so many widely travelled folks have said about the sunsets across the Susquehanna.

Asks Autoists To Obey Rules Alexander Calls Attention to Reduced Insurance Rates Now Effective Ralph H. Alexander, Insurance Commissioner, urged Pennsyl vania motorists today to justify lowered automobile insurance rates by obeying rationing and speeding regulations. He said insurance companies had cut liability and property damage rates "beyond all expec tations," and explained the first reduction was 20 per cent, for holders of gasoline ration books and 10 per cent, for holders of and books, applicable only where fuel was rationed. Later a Nation wide cut was made which increased the original reductions roughly by 20 per cent.

The commissioner said the companies have now decided to set a new rate which they anticipated would satisfy everybody."

War Workers Are Urged To Eat Right Kind Food County Home Economics Representative Gives Tips For Health and Fitness I Eating the right food for good health is a "must" for persons who work in war industries.

Both the war worker and the homemaker need to share the responsibility of planning a well balanced day's eating, Miss Elizabeth K. Lofberg, home economics extension representative of Dauphin county, said today. If you eat one meal out and two at home each day, tell the person who plans the family meals what the bought meals are like so that she may 'supply" at home the types of foods lacking. For health and fitness, adults need each day milk, fruit, green or yellow vegetables, and the other types of foods that round out a good diet. Whatever the hours of your working shift, do not slip into the habit of hit or miss meals.

For persons who work at night, four meals often are better than three. A good schedule for such a worker; may be: A hearty breakfast when he gets home Singers To Be Heard Seventy Voice Choir Will Appear at Annual Re formation Service Sun day The 70 voice choir of the John Harris High School will be the musical feature of the annual Reformation Service of the Lutheran congregations of Harrisburg and vicinity to be held in the Forum of the State Education Building on Sunday at 7.45 p. m.

Celebrating the 425th annivers ary of the Protestant Reformation, the service is sponsored by twenty five local Lutheran con gregations. Dr. Joseph B.

Baker ot York, pastor of St. Matthew's Lutheran Church there and well known platform and radio speak er, will address the congregation assembled on "Using Our In heritance." The Rev. Alton M. Motter, president of the Lutheran Ministerial Association of Harris burg and vicinity, will preside. The doors will open at seven o'clock.

There is no admission charge. WE JUNIOR COMMANDOS HAVE A BK3 JOB BUT SCHOOL IS IMPORTANT TDOVTHE SMARTER WE GET TK BETTER WE CAN DO JSV JOBI from work and before sleep, a light meal on waking, a more substantial meal later on before going to work, and a night lunch during work hours. When you buy meals, choose your eating place with care. Try to find a clean, cheerful place that serves a variety of food, well cooked. In looking over the menu, judge the price and food list together and get good nourishment for your money.

Before taking "specials" on the menu, see if they provide the combina tion of food you need. If you don't like a food you need, try it again or try it served another way. Victory Seen By Democrats Election Cited as Oppor tunity For People to Take Control in Government Democratic candidates and party leaders, addressing a county rally in the courthouse last night, predicted victory at the election next Tuesday. Meredith Myers, Lewistown newspaper publisher and former State chairman, described the elec tion as "an opportunity for the people to take direct control in the government." Andrew S. Beshore, candidate for Congress, spoke, and John A.

Phillips, State head of the CIO, predicted that Clair Ross will be the next Governor of Penn sylvania. State Campaign Manager Ram sey S. Black, Third Assistant Post master General, envisioned "the election of the entire Democratic ticket." County Chairman Henry E. Harner presided.

Coal Regions Seen Facing Shorter Week Comerce Secretary James Comments on Agree' ment of Mine Union Unless Pennsylvania's anthra cite operators get more customers "the mines may be back down to a three day week in December or January," Secretary Mark S. James of the Commerce Depart ment declared today.

Commenting on the United Mine Workers of America agreement to work a six day week with time and a half for the extra day, James said: "I don't see any reason for a six day week in the hard coal fields," he also heads the Pennsylvania Anthracite Com mittee which regulates production to stabilize the industry. "We haven't caught up with the demand because everybody wants coal right away," he asserted. "It still just a distribution problem. Last winter the mines operated two, three and four days a week to fill requirements of the same amount of customers they have now. "They are running five days a week now and are producing all the coal that's needed.

There has been no appreciable conversion of oil burners to coal grates." Anthracite production last week amounted to 960,000 tons while the demand was put at 1,200,000 tons. Mines Secretary Richard Maize said there is a need to increase the working schedules of both hard and soft, coal fields. He declared added work not only would help the miners financially but probably would keep some men from leaving the pits to enter war industries. Maize pointed out that the Glen Alden Coal Company in the northern anthracite field was short an average of 1000 men daily in recent weeks. He said bituminous fields were meeting the demand by working men on a staggered basis to keep the mines operating six days a week.

PUC Approves Rate Proposal P. P.

and L. Asked That Planned Electric In crease Be Withdrawn Proposals of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company to withdraw planned electricity rate increases carried the approval to day of the Public Utility CommiS' sion which noted that suggested higher rates for steam and gas were not affected by the agree ment. The company's 28 county area was involved with the exception of the Lancaster area. The com mission took under advisement a plea to delay effective date of electricity boosts there until May 1, 1943. The entire plan to boost rates of all types was suspended for six months by the PUC last July pending an investigation into reasonableness of the increases.

The electricity rates proposed called for an annual expenditure of 31, 073,677 by commercial and indus trial users. 1 IS GET ntf TOUGH DOESN'T MEAN WfTRE GOIN' TO EASE UP ON OUR JUNIOR COMMANDO WORK!

THAT! ARITHMETIC IS BOTHERIN' HIM! WELL. WHOS GOOD AT. ARITHMETIC? MM MVT7T1.F AND SAM They were Charles and John Dinger, father and son; Een W. Wolf and Lawrence A. Wolf.

Judge Watson announced that the defendants will be sentenced in Harrisburg at the December term of court at which time character witnesses will be given an opportunity to appear on their behalf. With the entering of the pleas, Arthur A. Maguire, assistant U. S. attorney, moved for the dismissal of similar charges against Lino Magnelli, James Hutchinson, and Marvin Grove, co defendants.

Maguire told Judge Watson that inasmuch as the "important persons" in the conspiracy had admitted their guilt, there was an absence of sufficient evidence to predicate a charge of guilt against the remaining three defendants. Court then adjudged them not guilty. The pleas came after several hours were consumed at a pre trial conference held behind closed doors. At the conclusion of the lengthy session Maguire announced the de fendants were ready to go to trial. A jury was in the process of being selected when the pleas were entered late in the afternoon.

All of the defendants were in dicted last July of entering into a conspiracy to defraud the United States by interfering with Governmental functions in enforcing rules and regulations pertaining to rationing of tires. Those who pleaded guilty are liable to fines of $10,000 each, two years im prisonment, or both. In addition to the conspiracy charge, Ben W. Wolf also pleaded guilty to falsifying an inventory of tires and tubes in his possession which was required on or before January 5, last. Government attorneys pointed out that he listed ownership of 177 passenger car tires when he had 229 and 50 bus and truck tires when he had 447.

The Govern ment claimed he built up a reserve of approximately $25,000 worth of tires and tubes which he was en gaged in selling after rationing became effective at prices ranging up to 100 per cent, ot their retail value. Investigators discovered 112 tires in the garage operated by Charles Dinger and his son, John, and unearthed 220 more in a cot tage which still remain unclaimed Lawrence A. Wolf, described by Government attorneys as a druggist, is alleged to have drummed up trade for the bootleg tires as his part in the conspiracy. He is not related to Ben W. Wolf.
