It j is the Harrisburg liitie Club and its object is to make sharpshooters of men. Instructions with the military rifle! and revolver is given by competent! teachers. Thirty-five members of the j organization liavo already enlisted i and more will follow: Details of the great work of this! organization are given in a letter to the editor by Harry A. Douglas, pres-) ident. It follows: To the Editor of the Telegraph: Much has been said and written! concerning the activities of local or- ! ganizations toward preparation fori war: how our chapter of the Red i Cross is laboring faithfully, our re-1 cruiting officers working day and> night, and our corporations doing! their utmost to get Uncle Sam ready for the fray. If you will permit me, i however, 1 would like to give the i readers of (he TELEGRAPH a little | information concerning the activities! of an organization which I believe ; is doing and for over a year has been i doing a most valuable work with little publicity. Rapid Growth I refer to the Harrisburg Rifle j Club, an organization which from ai membership of fourteen a little over a year ago, now has 140 active, ener-1 gctic members and boasts of as many expert riflemen as any civilian riiie club in the country. This club is one of many thousand | throughout the United States, under! the direct regulation and supervision of the National Rifle Association and j the War Department. Its only ex cuse for existence is to teach men of | military age the gospel of straight j shooting with the military rifle and 4>istol. Our local organization is composed [ largely of young men of the 9on-| scription age. To date we have In I the service of the United States thir ty-five members. We are proud of this and prouder! ] still of the fact that wo have sent I these boys away with the knowledge j that they will make their presence felt when the time comes for them j to face the Teuton trenches. Know How to Slioot We offer these same advantages i to any able-bodied male citizen over < 16 years of age, whether or not he | expects to serve in the Army. There | are no strings or conditions to be | coming enrolled in our organization I beyond the paying of a nominal fee toward the expenses incident to op crating the range and subscribing to our rules. Our officers are sacrificing their i own time to give the young men of ! Harrisburg a chance to learn to ! shoot the military rifle under all j sorts of conditions, in the hope that by so doing we may, be the means of saving their lives "some | where in France" later on. It is a | duty we owe to them, j All we ask from the citizens of I Harrisburg is their support from | the younger men, their time on the] range; from those who by reason*of their years cannot practice with the I rifle, some financial aid, in order that j the range may be kept in operation I daily throughout the season. The club has exhausted its resources in | the construction of a modern range I and while a few of our citizens have come to our assistance, it has not I been sufficient to meet our needs. When the people of this com munity learn what we are doing I am sure, from past observations, | they will respond to our call to arms j and "boost" us along as they have ! always been willing to do in other j causes. Fathers should insist upon their | sons getting this training, and they j themselves should visit the range : some fine Saturday and see a sight that would make them prouder than ever of America's young men. We have received contributions from the following citizens and members of the club amounting to 1 $319: M. S. Heishey, J. Moore Camp- I bell, E. S. Denniston, Fred A.

RAILROAD IMPORTANTWORK FOR ENGINEERS Railroad Men Must Build Lines and Bridges; Take Along Rolling Stock Railroad employes who will soon leave for France for special railroad duty will play an Important part in tho war. These men make up the N'inetenth Regiment now locato In Philadelphia. In this regiment are a number of shopmen from Luck now, Enola, Marysvllle and other points on the main line of the Penn sylvania railroad. Referring to the work abroad tho Railway Gazette says: "Tho value of railroad materials and rolling stock alone, now being purchased to provide in advance for the needs of the American Army abroad, is about five times that of all purchases made annually in this country for the Panama canal dur ing the last four or five years, ac cording to a statement authorized by the chief of engineers of the army. "American engineers must under take large operations in the con struction and repair of bridges in France. They must repair and maintain the roads and highways over which supplies will be brought up to the battle line. Much of the latter work will he done within range of the enemy's guns. What Americans Will Do "Our engineers will equip the wharves and piers in France utilized by American forces with the ter minal facilities required by our armies. The lumber for this work will be cut from- European forests by regiments of American foresters. This method will save burdening our ships with lumber from the United States. One regiment of foresters Is being organized, and several more will be raised. They will carry with them complete lumbermen's outfits, including sawmill equipment. "Material for extensive standard gage and narrow gage railroads will be sent to Europe, to enable the engineers to carry out their task. The lines to be built will both trans port our troops to the front and handle all transportation behind the firing line. The lines running up to the front will remove wounded and salvage gathered from the field. Lines of this tyije are broad, gage, feeding numerous narrow gage spurs which radiate from the main line and accommodate supply trains, often hauled by gasoline engines. Carry Tlieir Rolling Stock "The Engineers' Corps will carry its own rolling stock to the theater of war. This, in itself, will be a gi gantic operation. "The engineers must construct at harbors in the United States wharves, piers and storehouses of sulficient capacity to handle all ma terials and supplies to be shipped to France. An efficiency system has been worked out to provide against delay in loading and unloading which might interfere in any way with the maximum movement of the shipping available. Ample and up to-date terminal facilities must be provided in ports on both sides of the Atlantic. Our ehotage of ships on the water makes efficiency in docks doubly important, and the speed of the transport service na turally depends upon the number of tons actually moving all the time, and not upon the amount of ton nage available." Veteran Employes Now on Reading Honor Roll These employes have been placed on the pension roll by the Reading Railway Company: Patrick Casey, freight engineer, Third and Berks streets, Philadel phia, age limit, after a continuous service of fifty-one years and five months. Lewis C. Malsberger, shifting engi nerr. Fast Penn Junction, Allen town, aged 69, total disability. Mr. Mals berger has a record of fifty years and six months. He ran a passenger train on the Lebanon Valley and East Penn many years and formerly resided in Reading. Abraham Fry, a freight llagman, on the Lebanon Valley and Fast Penn, Allentown. He has reached the age limit. He has a service record of thirty-three years and seven months. John McGovern, shifting engineer. Mine Hill crossing, was retired on the age limit after a service of forty-eight years and five months. Reading Official to Remove to Philadelphia The office of F. M. Falck, assistant general manager of the Reading Rail way system, established in Reading some months ago, is to be moved to the Reading Terminal, Philadelphia. The moving will take place to-mor row, and on and aftr Monday Mr. Falck 'will be found at the terminal. The removal will affect a number of clerks and stenographers. Wallace J. Bright, chief clerk; G. Blaine Long, stenographer, and Leroy Moody and a few others employed in the office will go with Mr. Flack. The war situation and traffic conditions are said to be the reason for the change.
