WOMEN TO BE
ADMITTED TO
WAR MEETING
\\ ill Be Able to Hear Speeches
at C. of C. Dinner From
Galleries
Women will be invited to attend
the "war meeting" of the Harris
burg Chamber of Commerce which
Secretary of War Baker will' ad
dress at tho. Chestnut Street Hall
next Monday evening, October 8.
The committee in charge and
President Tracy have arranged for
the women to be present on the fol
lowing basis:
Every member of the chamber
who purchases a ticket to the dinner
will be mailed another ticket en
titling one woman to hear the
speeches, but this will not entitle the
lady to dinner. The women will be
accommodated in the tiers of seats
on the side of the large room, the
members of the chamber dining in
the center. The women will be ad
mitted to the hall between 8.30 and
9 p. m., the doors closing at 9, when
the speaking starts. The men will
copie at 7.30 when dinner will be
served to them.
The seats in the gallery have been
allotted to the women of the Har
risburg and Steelton Red Cross, the
tickets for which will be turned over
to the chairman of the respective
chapters.
No man will be admitted to the
gallery or side seats. The only way
whereby a man can attend the meet
ing is to purchase a dinner ticket, as
men presenting the women's tickets
will not be admitted to the hall un
der any circumstances.
Go Out Tuesday
The tickets are being printed and
will be mailed out Tuesday morning
to those who have made reserva
tions.
A huge number of advance reser
vations have been made already,
every mail being filled with accept
ances from members.
It is confidently expected that the
innovation whereby members can
enable the ladies to hear the address
of Secretary of War Baker will cause
a still greater number of members to
reserve seats.
The officers of the chamber have
received numerous requests from
wives of members and from the club
women in the city that they be en
abled to hear some of the noted
speakers who address the different
meetings of the Chamber of Com
merce and it is for this season that
arrangements have been made to ex
tend the courtesy to the ladies on
next Monday evening.

numb with cold. He said he would
have gone higher but he could not
stand tho cold.
Bomb of Ink and Water
Clears Restaurant
A Gettysburg soldier caused much
excitement in a crowded Market
street restaurant last evening when
lie called out, "I've got a bomb. Watch
this place go up!" The soldier held
in his hand an electric light bulb,
tilled with a liquid of darkish hue.
A grand rush was made for the corri
dors, and someone hurriedly called
the police department.
The soldier was promptly placed
under arrest, and the bomb upon ex
amination was found to contain
black ink.
An examination into the soldier's
sanity will be held late this a/ter
noon. The man gave his name as
John R. Leonard. He wds formerly
a member of Company K. Seventh In
fantry, at Gettysburg. If the man

deserter.

LIBERTY LOAN,
M'ADOO URGES
Perfect Investment in Noblest
Cause, Writes Secretary
of Treasury *-
By W. G. McADOO,
Secretary of the Treasury.
For the purpose of:
Equipping with arms, clothing and
food our gallant soldiers who
liavo been called to the field;
Maintaining our Navy and our val
iant tarß upon the high seas;
Providing the necessary means to
pay the wages of our soldiers and
sailors and, if the bill now pend
ing ln the Congress passes, the
monthly allowances for the sup
port of their dependent families
and to supply them with life In
surance:
Constructing a great fleet of mer
chant vessels to maintain the line
of communication with our brave
troops ln France, and to keep our
commerce afloat upon the high
seas In defiance of the German
kaiser and his submarines;
Creating a great fleet of airplanes,
which will give complete su
premacy in the air to the United
States and the brave nations
fighting with us against the Ger
man military menace; and for
other necessary war purposes.
Tha Congress of the United States
has authorized the Secretary of the
Treasury to sell to the American peo
ple bonds of the United States bear
ing 4 per cent, interest, with valuable
tax exemptions, and convertible un
der certain conditions into other
issues of United Statos bonds that
may be authorized by the Congress.
The official circular of the Treasury
Department gives full details.
There is now offered to the Ameri
can people a new issue of $3,000,000,-
000 of bonds to be known as the Sec
ond Liberty Loan. They will be is
sued in such denominations and upon
such terms that every patriotic citl- !
Zen will have an opportunity to as-'
sist the government by lending his
money upon the security of a United
States government bond.
It Is essential to the success of the
war and to the support of our gal
lant troops that these loans shall not
only be subscribed, but oversubscrib
ed. No one is asked to donate or
give his money to the government;
t.t every one is asked to lend his
money to the government. The loans I
will be repaid in full with interest at 1
P©r cent, per
*°S* r, } me nt bond is the safest InvH
m< ®iJ nthe world; It is as Rood*
cu, jK .^. c * v an . better, because tfl
government bond bears interest afl
currency d„ e( , not . No other InvfJ
tnemi compares wfth It for safefl
reoSdy convertibility Into cash, M

onfe can help. No mor.i patrlotlo dfl

lalttle than to furnish the
l th ? necessary money ■

aiad sailors all that they require

. . W , e I*? 1 - flrst ° f "11. for AmerflH
ll f' r 'K >J 3 . the right t the gM
le fted and unobstructed use of^B"
f seas, so that the surplus
u 'ts of our farms, our mines and!
ft ctorles may be carried into the hfH
b >rs of every friendly nation In tH
world. Our welfare and
a ? a people depend upon our rlKht H
p paceful intercourse with all the nfl
tons of the earth. To abandon thS
r glits by withdrawing our ships arfl
c jmmerce from the seas upon the ofl
d er of a military despot in Kurope
v "onld destroy prosperity and bring
(1 isaster and humiliation upon the
J people. 1
We fight to protect our citizens
i gainst assassination and murder
upon the high seas while in the\
1 teaceful exercise of those rights de
inanded by international law and
>very instinct and dictate of human-
We fifflit to preserve our democratic
nstltutlons and our sovereignty as a
nation against the menace of a pow
rfnl and ruthless military autocracy
headed by the German kaiser, whose
ambition is to dominate the world.
We fight also for the noble ideal of
universal democracy and liberty, th
right of the smallest and weakest
nations equally with the most power
ful to live and to govern themselves
[according to the will of their own
people.
We fight for peace, for that .lust
and lasting peace which agonized and
' tortured humanity craves and which
I not the sword nor the bayonet of a
military despot, but the supremacy of
j vindicated right alone can restore to
I a distracted world.
To secure those ends, T appeal to
every man and woman who resides
! upon the soil of free America and en
joys the blessings of her priceless In
stitutions to Join the league ol
Patriots by purchasing a Liberty
Bond.
