FOREIGN-BORN TO HAVE

the committee. It will meet again
on Monday noon.
Many Conivrts
-After many of the employes had
already made other arrangements
for spending the Fourth, the Harris
burg Manufacturing and Boiler Com
pany. Nineteen and Derry streets,
announces that it will have a 100 per
cent, representation in the big pa
rade. The employes, the companv
officials say. have become so imbued
with the spirit of the celebration that
ihey have gladly canceled their
purely personal arrangements. The
employes will be led by C. 1.. Scott,
genera! superintendent.
Locations for six of the seven band
concerts have been announced.
Stands will be erected for the after
noon concerts at Reservoir Park.
Marris Park. Capitol Park. Front and
Forster streets, a; the Twelfth street
playgrounds and at the Island Park
during the athletic contests.
No less than ten different nation
alities. each with its own float, with
a prohable total of 5.000 participants
will make up the foreign-born di
vision which will form the frontline
division of the big Independence
Pay parade. Announcements to this
effect were issued following an en
thusiastic meeting last evening of
the foreign-born committee in the
City Council Chamber. Edward
Moeslein. chairman of the commit
tee. presided at last evening's meet
ing with Ross Seaman as secretary.
Twenty-two representatives of the
various foreign-born groups in Har
risburg and Steelton were present
including Germans. Austrians. Eng
lishmen. Italians. Rumanians. Ser
bians. Greeks. Croatians. Slavonians
and Jews, and that they (were all
heartily in sympathy with the cause
of the United States and her allies
v.as evidenced time and again as
they applauded the stirring patriotic
words of the chairman.
Patriotism Unbounded
Each one <sf the twenty-two for
eign-born representatives at last
evening's meeting was heart and
soul in the plans that are being
made for the big celebration. Here
was an Italian who. although he
could barely make himself under
stood in English, told how the Ital
ians of Harrisburg and Steelton
would number at least 600 marching
men. And they plan to have their
own band too! A murmur of ap
plause was heard when he stated
that the fact of their having pro
cured a band had been reported to
the chairman of the band commit
tee. Harry A. Boyer, as been re
quested by that committee, a dem
onstration that the same splendid
spirit of co-operation that exists
among the allies in northern Italy
is present also in Harrisburg.
A Croatian who mentioned with
visible pride that he had a son fight
ing with the United States forces in
France, told of the efforts of the
Croatian organization to procure a
band to lead their 500 marching
men. They had been unable to sign
up a band to date, and Mr. Seaman
told this good patriot, whose name is
more euphonious than spellable. that
if the Croatians were coming 500
strong, there wouldn't be much
doubt but that there would be a band
available for their unit. This was
such good news to the Crpatians
present that they willingly acquiesc
ed when the suggestion was made
that they collect what they could
among their number toward the
general fund and turn it in to the
general committee.
One Rumanian said that at the

I industrial plant where he was em
! ployed a notice was posted to the ef
i feet that all employes would be ex
j pected to march together in the pa
i r.ule. Was he to do that or come
i with the foreign-born division, he
asked.
Mr. Moeslein explained that the
s marchers in the foreign-born divi
. sion were the guests of honor this
Fourth of July and would have the
| front line of parade and that it was
the wish of the general committee
• that foreigners identify themselves
with their various organisations and
i march as a part of the foretgn-
I born division. He requested that the
; Rumanian ask his foreman for per
mission to march thus and if that
j permission was denied, to tell the
j chairman or secretary of the for
, eign-l>orn committee of that tact.

'i Bathe You in Kisses"
in Letter Led to Suit

; Frances, sweetest of women." one of
; the phrases in a letter which Private
j Guy A. Reynolds, of the American
i Army, produced as having been writ
ten by Paul H. Hilken. of Baltimore.
,to Mrs. Reynolds. The letter was an
exhibit in a $50,000 alienation suit
which has been settled out of court.
Mrs. Reynolds was Miss Frances
Billings, daughter of YVilliam P. Bil
j lings, a Wilkes-Barre,' Pa., banker.
Reynolds, Billings' chauffeur, eloped
with the girl in 1912 and separated
from her in 1916 after Hilken entered
her life.
Another letter Reynolds said Hil
ken wrote on February 3. 1917, short
ly before America entered the war,
severely criticising President Wilson
: and his advisers, who. he said, "by
| their unneutral and unfair attitude
toward Germany brought Germany
to the point where she could do noth
ing else, in other words, the United
j States is so entirely wrong that I
simply could not support a war

were quiet as compared with the
many days of great activity which
I they have recently experienced. The
! German artillery continued to shell
both our front lines and rear areas.
| distributing its fire rather impartial
j ly over the sector. The Clerembauth
' and Marette woods, Lucy l.e Bocage,
Triangle farm. lethiolet und Boure
shes all received their share. So did
the Paris road on our other principal
lines of communication.' but the
number of shells used was moderate
for this locality and most of them
i were of small or medium caliber.
"The fire was of various sorts.
I some of the harassing sort directed
against our billets in rear areas at
intervals during the day and night
and some for the obvious purpose of
cutting our communication. As usual
some of the lower and wooded areas
f were shelled with gas. but high ex
plosives and shrapnel were frequent.
■ The German machine guns were
tiv eagainst our lines, especially in
the vicinity of Bouresches. and
snipers were active near the edges
: of the Bois De Belleau and around
; the Bouresches railroad station."
"The enemy made one of hi# cus
tomary attempts to ambush un
American patrol in the vicinity of
Tafournay farm, but his ambush
party was caught and dispersed by
our fire. German airplanes were
active along our front, paying par
ticular attention to the 1 i?wt halt.
In the rear of the German line
small groups were seen in constant
motion passing along (he roads be
tween the various farm towns and
woods. A considerable number of
them appeared to be carrying
stretchers. Wagons. automobiles
and military caissons also were in
constant bovement but in not
more than customary numbers.
Troops Boar Burden
"Our own troops bore their full
share of the day's activities, advanc
ing and improving their positions
and returning the enemy's intentions
in the matter of artillery fire. Af
ter a burst of fire on a cluster of
woods, a number of the enemy were
seen running away in all directions.
AM of our units sent out patrols
which effectively reconnoitered the
hostile position.*.
"In the Chateau Thierry region the
day of June 21" to June 22 produced
no marked developments. In the ab
sence of infantry actions, arti'lery
played the leading part. The German
artillery was active in the same man
ner as on the preceding days and to
a somewhat greater extent. German
alrplar.es were slso present in some
what greater numbera.
Patrol* Conxtantly Active
"In the rear the same small groups
were again seen and once again our
artillery fire had marked effect, driv
ing back into the woods near Lucy
farm a group of men who had at
tempted to emerge. The German in
fantry seemed to give most of its at
tention to the Belleau woods and to
checking our patrols. One of our
parties southwest of Waux encoun
tered lively rifle and machine gun fire
and from the same point there was
considerable sniping on our lines.
Bouresches and the Belleau woods
again received special attention from
the German machine gun detach
ments. Gwman snipers retained their
positions of the day before. Our
troops, as usual, returned what they
received both In artillery fire and
sniping, while our patrols were con
tinually active."
