Reasons For Light
and Coal Saving
For every ton of steel that Is
manufactured in this country it
requires live tons of coal.
Every eighty pounds of coal
saved will be sufficient to manu
facture a three-inch shell.
It requires one ton of coal to
manufacture every two tons of
dead weight shipping.
It requires 3,000.000 tons of
coal to keep an army of 125,000
men in France for one year.
! The French army tired 6,000,-
000 shells during the battle of
I Verdun which required 9.000.000
tons of coal to manufacture. —

Iron Cross Is Held
Cheaply by Germans
Lawrence, Mass.—Sergeant Mat
thew C. O'Brien, in writing to Lis
sister, sends a certificate he got front
a German prisoner entitling the Ger
man to the lrc-n Cross.
The fact that the prisoner was
easily led to part with the piece of
paper honoring him shows, the ser
geant savs, what a German private
thinks of the Iron Cross. The pris
oner confided that the Iron Cross
antl other medals of honor in the
German army are not held us high
hy the men as one might think. The
prisoner sail that as the war goes
on they are getting less popular
every day.
Translated, the certificate reads as
follows:
"Preliminary announcement: In
the name of His Majesty The King,
Trivate of the Reserve August Fred
erick Jahr, of the Sixth Company of
Infantry, Four Hundred Second
Regiment, on May 23. 1917, was
awarded the Iron Cross."

that only ten days before he was in

at Camp Dix
Lieutenant James T. Long, formerly
of Company 1), Eighth Infantry, and
I lately of Company M. One Hundred
| and Twelfth Infantry, arrived home
I on Monday from France on instruc
| tion duty. He was in the thick of
I the tights from Chateau Thierry to
i the Vesle river and says that the
| regiment displayed magnificent cour
i age and that the Harrlsburgers want
|to go through to the finish. He will
go to Camp Dix. as an instructor.
Lieutenant Long was gassed in the
J middle of July near the Marne.
Lieutenant Joshua W. Swartz, Jr.,
of this city, came home with him. He
t was in the same regiment and will
I also go to Camp Dix.
The four National Guard divisions
I that are in this sector with the Al
: lied drive took 34,000 prisoners and
between 600 and 700 guns, millions i
! of rounds of ammunition.
1 "We have the Germans on the run :
[ and are going to keep them going" |
i said he.
Tolls Thrilling Story
How the Americans in the Cha
teau Thierry sector used up thirty
German divisions and made possible
the great a'iied offensive which is
to-day knocking at the doors of the
Hintlenburg line if it is not already
across the threshold, is told by Lieu
tenant Long. It is a thrilling tale.
The Keystone Division is made up
of the One Hundred Ninth, the One
Hundred Tenth, the One Hundred
Eleventh and the One Hundred
Twelfth Regiments, the One Hundred
Tenth being made up mostly of the
old Third and Tenth National Guard
Regiments and the One Hundred
Twelfth of the old Sixteenth a ret
Eighth Regiments of the Guard,
many of Iho boys being from Hui
risburg and the Central Fennsylvn
aia region.
Baptism of Fire
"We got our baptism of fire onj
July 14 and 15," said the lieu
tenant, "where south of the Marne!
in the region of Chateau Thierry we|
were under German bombardment |
for twenty hours consecutively. I
"Under this fire my company lost!
two men killed and ahout eighty!
wounded. Mose of the casualties]
were from shrapnel, high explosives
or gas and more than seventy-five
per cent, of those sent back to the
hospital recovered. Indeed, Ilia,
death rate is exceptionally low for
the number ol' men laid out.
"When the Marines had gone
through Chateau Thierry we w.q*e
ordered in to take up the drive
against the Germans and up to the
time I left we had driven them back
for thirty-five miles, taking immense
numbers of ptisoners. about 34,000
in all for our division alone, hun
dreds of guns and millions of rounds
of ammunition of all kinds, which
we found in dugouts sometimes as
many as four and five stories under
ground. Our ammunition wagons
bring up our own ammunition and
take back the captured German
stuff. A significant fact is that much
of this German ammunition was
marked "19 15." indicating a small
reserve supply in the enemy's hands.
"When our boys went into the
open fighting beyond Chateau Thier
ry if was like hunting rabbits. \\'a
went right after them and we were
so close at places that wo could hear
their bodies fall as the men of our'
division shot them down. They!
fought mostly wits artillery and nw-
chine guns, in an effort to save thej
retreating tntcntry and stores, but
we were so close on*their heels that
many a time we captured their soup]
still hot. where they had been pre
paring their dinners.
German Morale Broken
"The men at the machine guns ]
kept up their fire from the nests pre- '
pared from them in advance and after i
they had shot as many Americans as j
they could, attempted to surrender, i
but in many cases the Americans had ;
bayoneted them before they had time j
to signify tlreir willingness to quit. ]
The Americans were taking no j
chances.
"We found them in depressions and
in trees and not a few Huns were
brought down like squirrels from the
topmost branches. One German of
ficer of artillery I found near his
gun. He was dead and bjj body was
still warm. A half-finished letter to
his friends back home told the tale.
He had been assigned to defend the

' retreating Germans to the last breath
! and said he knew his time was near.
' The army had no meat except the
artillery horses killed by French
| shells, ho said, and he had had a
! quantity of French wheat, which he
found growing in the fields covered
' by the German thrust, threshed and
was sending it back to his family
in Germany.
I "One of the American regiments
found three women in uniform In one
; of the captured French trenches.
• | Whether they were fighting or not I
jdo not know. But generally speaking
I 1 believe the German manpower is
I I running low and I am certain the
' morale of the troops is breaking. 1
I know the Germans were driven by
' j their own ir.en with machine guns
j across to our side of the Marne and
\ | I know that those we did not kill
were captured. None of them ever
I got back and most of them seemed
I glad to be out of it. They believe
;| that the cause of Germany is hopeless
and they now understand that they
: I have been deceived by their officers
who told them there was but one
' American brigade in France and that
no more could come on account of
the ravages of the U-boats."
Stand t p I niter llord.sltlps
1 "Tile Americans stand up well
I under hardships," said Lieutenant
j Long. "At one stretch we went 72
. | hours without food and were fight
]| ing most of the time.
I "The whole four regiments of the
t division fought so well that I und-:.*-
II stand the French mean'to decorate
| all of them. Where for lack of man
' power the Thirty-second Division
j failed to take the Vesle river, our
: division ,v.ts thrown iJ and we not
I only crossed it. but went some hun
dred yards beyond, where we en
| trenched. We were still on the light
ing front when I was detailed with
al out warning to come back to the
! Unjted States and report to Camp
| Dix."
Lieutenant Long pays high tribute
; to the fighting qualities of the
French and English, but is especially
! 1 impressed with the Czecho-Slovaks,
I now fighting in France. These - men
are made up of prisoners captured
I from the Austrians and Germans
, who had no sympathy with the Cen
tral Powers and are now fighting on
the side of the Allies.
Most of the men in Lieutenant
Long's company are from the Jutii
■ ata Valley and he says they are as
fine a body of fighting men as any
commander could ask and have won
a wonderful reputation for them
selves in France.
"It was wonderful to see them at
work in the open fighting," said he.
"They simply ate up the Germans.
They went through the woods like
wildfire. It was like rabbit hunting,
only more exciting. The Germans
were all good fighters in mass, but
the Americans simply ate them up
when it came to open warfare, and
the thirty-five mile drive which
smashed the Rheinis salient made
possibly the great offensive now in
progress. I could talk all day and
not praise ihc-se lads too much. They
were fighting steadily from July 14
to August 11, when I left, with brief
periods of rest alternately for the
! brigades, and were still at it August
i 11 when I left the front."
