TROOP C NEEDS
FINANCIAL AID
OF EVERYBODY
And All Persons Should Be
Willing to Help Buy It a
Motortruck
Of course you are willing to help
the Governor's Troop get a light mo
tor truck so that it may be In the
same class as the other units of the
First Pennsylvania Cavalry.
When the Eighth Regiment was on
the Mexican border the people of
Harrisburg chipped in and pur
chased a similar truck for the Har
risburg contingent and it is only fair
that the Governor's Troop should be
given the same consideration.
At the weekly luncheon meeting of
the Harrisburg Rotary Club yester
day the members subscribed SIBO
toward the fund for a motor truck
tor the Troop and It is now up to
the rest of Harrisburg to help in
promptly raising the necessary
money. About SSOO will be needed
and officers of the Governor's Troop
with the endorsement of the Cham
ber of Commerce will call upon the
people for such subscriptions as they
desire to make. All the other troops
liave been supplied with a motor
truck and it isn't fair to expect the
Governor's Troop to go to the front
with no transportation facilities and
with the chance of having to accept
the tender services of an occasional
mule team.
The boys are going into the serv
ice cheerfully and in the proper
spirit. Help them in every way pos
sible. All subscriptions for this pur
pose sent to the Harrisburg Tele
graph will be acknowledged and
turned over to the proper officers.
Two Teams Organized
Two teams of the Governor's Troop
have been organized to solicit sub
scriptions to the truck fund and they
request that fraternal organisations
and all others send checks to Captain
George W. H. Roberts. These sub
scriptions have been made through
the Rotary Club:

Irregularly After Yielding
New York, Aug. 28.—(Wall Street), j
—Rails, shippings, equipments and
active specialties were fractionally I
lower at the opening of to-day's

copper falling a point. Steels, motors
and utilities also yielded slightly but
soon rallied irregularly. Dealings
were on a very light scale with the
usual short coverings of those stocks
in which support was shown.
U. S. Steel's gradual advance of a
point with gains of 1 to 2 points in.
other industrials, shippings and oils,'
checked the early decline but the list i
fell back again when automobile is
sues developed increased heaviness
and rubles fell to a new minimum.
Studebaker reacted 3 4 points to the
low price of 48 4 and General Mo
tors lost 2 points. Bethlehem Steel;
hardened on announcement of the l
new financing. Trading dwindled
steadily in the course of the fore
noon. Liberty Bonds sold at 99.94
