Boys in Camp Moth
Interesting in Success
of Liberty Loan Drive
Tho accompanying correspondence
between Frank J. Consylman, man
ager for Doutrlch & Co., and Robert
E. Runk, company A, 304 th Field
Signal Brigade at Camp Meade, is
illustrative of the interest the sol
diers at the front and the boys back
home alike are taking in the Liberty
Loan, the campaign for which will
close May 4. A short time ago Mr.
Consylman received from Mr. Runk
the following letter:
"I take the liberty of addressing
this letter to you to show how the
soldier from home feels about the
Third Liberty Loan. If the boys of
the store have bought or will buy
one fifty dollar bond, I will receive:
1 radio receiving set, 1 set signal
ing flags, 1 electricians knife, 1 gas
mk, 1 pair of water-proof boots.
"One one-hundred dollar bond will
clothe me or feed me for eight
months.
"One one-hundred-dollar bond,
and one fifty dollar bond will clothe
and equip me for overseas service.
•"Three one hundred-dollar bonds
will clothe me and keep me in
France for a year.
"Some subscribers to the Liberty
Loan may know that he has made
the above possible. Why not let it be
the boys of "Doutrich's?" If the boys
have purchased their greatest pos
sibleextent. pass this on to some one
else. We offer our services for nearly
nothing. Why can't the folks at home
loan their money at a good rate of
interest with the best security in
the world?
"I'm going across—you come
across"
To which Mr. Consylman has re
plied: y
"I was irfore than pleased to re
ceive your letter of April 24tli. The
boys at Doutrich's all appreciate the
pleasure of having a representative
looking after their interests at "the
front" and have gone the limit to
take care of 'the rear' by subscrib
ing generously to the "Third Liberty
Loan." We are a one hundred per
cent, organization, and 'Harrisburg'
went over the top. Hope these few
words of good cheer will give you
and your comrades greater enthu
siasm in this struggle fbr a just
cause. We at home stand ready to
pledge our last dollar to help the
boys.
"If you display the same spirit
in behalf of our country as you did
while employed with us, I am sure
no one will be able to say He (Bob
Runk) fell down on the job. Good
luck to you and all the boys. Trust
ing we may all see you again when
it's over—"Over There."

PRESENT GOOD ENTERTAINMENT
A stag party which was largely at
tended by Masons of the city and in
vited guests was given by the Har

NEWS OF INTEREST TO RAILROADERS
STRONG ACTIVITY
FOR BOND SALES
Pennsy Employes to Make
Special Effort to Break
All Records
All possible efforts to make the
closing weeks of the Third Liberty
Loan drive count to the utmost are
being put into the campaign among
the working forces of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad system. East of
Pittsburgh alone more than 1,000 of
ficers and employes are giving their
services many hours overtime dally
as volunteers, leading meetings, ad
! dressing shopmen, office forces and
' track gangs, and appealing indivldu
| ally to every man and woman on the
railroad to help make the Third Lib
erty Loan "America's Answer to
Autocracy." Equal energy and en
thusiasm are being put into the cam
paign on the western lines of the
system.
Posters Tell Story
Posters addressed to all employes
: have been placed on the bulletin
i boards throughout the system read
i ing in part:
| "Your country again needs your
laid: buy to the very limit of your
| ability.
"Practice self-denial now, and in
sure your freedom and your chil
dren's freedom.
"Put every dollar that you can
spare on democracy's tiring line."
While definite figures are not yet
obtainable, all signs point to heavy
subscription on the part of the rail
road employes.
At a number of points, the indica
tions are that the record made In the
second loan has already been sur
passed and at some places the em
ployes have pledged themselves to
take bonds of the Third Loan greater
In total value than their subscrip
tions to the first and second loans
combined.
Bonds Going Out
Especial efforts are being centered
on foreign-born employes, nearly
one-third of whom participated in
the earlier issues of the Liberty
Loans. The Treasurer of the United
States having commenced delivery of
the actual bonds o£ the Third Lib
erty Loan, a supply has been ob
tained by the Pennsylvania Railroad
in denominations of SSO, JIOO and
SI,OOO each, to be turned over to
employes paying for their bonds in
full. This will be continued as fast
as additional bonds can be obtained
In order that employes buying out
right may obtain possession of their
bonds as promptly as possible.
HOTELMEN NOT TO STOP
SALE OF BOTTLED LIQVORS
Local hotel proprietors seem
unanimous in the intention not to ab
stain from selling bottled liquors to
be carried out of their barrooms
until ordered to do so by Federal
authorities. The bartenders contend
that thev are within their rights
when thev sell bottled drinks, and
most of the mhave signified their in
tention for selling liquor to be car
ried out of the bar If desired until
the government prohibits it. George
Kobler. president of the Dauphin
Countv Liquor Dealers' Association.
1 contended that the hotelmen are with
in their rights when they sell the bot-
I tied goods.

ENOLA EMPLOYES
BREAK RECORDS
Go Over Top in Liberty Loan
Drive; Celebrate Yes
terday at Noon
Harrisburgers who are giving their
time and energy to sending this city
over top for the Third Liberty
Loan are asking to-day why it is
that the hard-working railroadman
gives 100 per cent., while thousands
of otllers, in better circumstances,
refuse to contribute anything. When
the Enola shops yesterday celebrated
their triumph of 232 men buying
$12,600 worth of bonds, when fore
man IT. G. Tluber announced that
the 900 motlvepower employes had
toed the 100 per cent. , mark with
$5>,000 and how the grand total of
all shops here under charge of Mas
ter Mechanic E. W. Smith runs up
to $223,000, the news was immedi
ately ca'rricd to Liberty Bond head
quarters and caused intense excite
ment. It seemed to give the solici
tors a new lease of life, for, if rail
roaders voluntarily met the issue in
this masterful fashion, why not ev
erybody else?
Bij? Time nt Knola
The celebration at yesterday
for fifty minutes during noonhotir
was something to repiember.' In a
long, high-roofed shed hundreds of
workmen, full of patriotic spirit and
lively as schoolboys, gathered to
hear themselves complimented for
their loyal response. Not that this
was necessary, for some Casey Jones
from the rear announced that he was
ready to buy SSOO more soon as
"you pass the hat."
P. E. Zarger. who headed the solic
itors at Enola, started things off
with the briefest talk and S. G. Hep
ford offered a touching prayer.
With that there was a rustle of
amusement, for the shop orchestra
was tuning up. These lads in their
Jumpers and overalls, grimy-faced
but bright-eyed, cut loose with an
old-time melody that had the rail
roaders jig-stepping. The orchestra
includes C. I. Chalmers, W. O. Gib
son, J. S. Wagner, H. G. Hassler, E.
S. Hassler and J. •M. Priest. Mr.
Hepford then thanked the men for
their generosity in buying three ma
chines for the Ladies' War Relief, of
which Mrs. Harry G. Hifber is chair
man. Hepford sprung a new idea on
the railroaders, suggested by Mrs.
Huber, of saving one cigar or one
treat of anything each week. "She
is not asking for money," he empha
sized, "but just that you forego one
■ cigar a week and give that money
to the War Relief. It will buy SIOO
worth of yarn each week." There
was a roar of assent, to this and the
women will no doubt have this ne
cessity supplied.
Orator of the Day
Formalities had no place in this
rough-and-ready celebration, where
the men barely had time to rush
from forge, foundry and engine to
lift a voice and away again. And
so the chief soloist of the day,
Blacksmith R. M. Adams, mounted
the rostrum, fairly well camouflaged
with coal dust, but that did not in
| terfere with his high tenor or his
manipulation of fhe old guitar. With
every jaw gaping and eye twinkling,
Blacksmith Adams made the hit ot
his life, for his song had the punch.
When he caroled "We've been in
many a fix since the days of '76.
but the old flag never touched the
ground," the railroaders looked very

McAdoo Places Coal
Car Order For Government
Washington, April 27.—Orders for
30,000 box and coal cars to'cost be- |
tween $80,000,000 and $90,000,000
were placed yesterday by Director
General McAdoo with the American
Car and Foundry Company, at fixed
prices which will represent about 5
per cent, profit. Announcement of
exact prices and specifications were
withheld ponding completion of con-j
tracts for construction of 70,000 rid
ditional cars • by other manufactur
ers with whom John Skelton Wil
liams, the railroad administration's
director of purchases, is negotiating
over prices.
Two styles of each kind of car
were ordered. All will have steel
bases and frames, nut will contain
a maximum of wood to save steel for
the nation's shipbuilding program.
They will be completed within ylx
months, and be put into service for
fall and winter hauling.
This is the first order for rolling
stock plaoed by the railroad admin
istration. It probably will be follow
ed oon by contracts for the con
struction of 1,000 locomotives. Thcj
ordering hap been delayed by dis
putes over price, the original bids
of the builders providing for 10 per
cent, or more profit.
