bleed and also grow faster? Use
painless, easy, always sure "Gets-It."
There's onlv one like it in the world

Campaign For Funds

the financial budget for the company
for the coming fiscal year. Accord
ing to the plan adopted by the com

be made to have each property owner

ber, paying a dollar a year to the
company. If this plan is met favor
ably by the citizens the officials hope
to raise a sufficient sum to meet the
expenses yearly, and n the same
time eliminate the necessity of hold
ing festivals and fair during the
year.
G. W. Nester, in charge of the |
houses here owned by the Enola
Realty Company has Informed the
firemen that his company will sup
port this move provided the other
property owners do their share. The
Realty Company owns almost 100
houses while thdse owned by Indi
viduals is almost 250. If the fire
company is able to raise $350 from
this plan, in addition to the regular
revenue they expect to have a suf
ficient sum annually to run the or
ganization.
The committee which is in charge
of the raising of the budget is made
up of: J. C. Strickner, chairman;
Horace H. Way. secretary; F. O.
Freise, Roy H. Holmes. George G.
Shelehamer, S. G. Hepford, Philip

Joint Railroad Plans
Found to Be Untimely
After a thorough discussion among
Reading railway officials and the
regional manager of the question of
diverting the passenger traffic of the
main line of the Reading to the
Schuylkill division of the Pennsyl
vania, It was found that under the
present conditions it would not be
practicable.
The meeting was held at the Read
ing Terminal, Philadelphia. The
matter was discussed in all of its
phases and it was shown to the stat
isfaction of all concerned that the
change, as suggested, would prove a
rather expensive proposition because
of the heavy grades on the Schuyl
kill division.
It would require ttie service of
additional locomotives to haul the
trains at different points and the
'change would be unsatisfactory to
the public. It would interfere with
many established practices, connec
tions and upset traffic conditions that
have required generations to per
• feet.
Stops Runaway Train
Without Any Damage
Altoona, Pa., Sept. 12.—A train of
forty-seven steel cars loaded with
coal got beyond the control of the
engine at Kittanning Point yesterday
as the result of an angle cock clos
ing, shutting off the air, and ran
down the mountain at a rapid rate,
finally being brought under control
and stopped near this city. No per
son was injured and no damage re
sulted.
The train was hauled by engine
786 in charge of Engineer C. H.
Kirkpatrick, while Conductor C. W.
A. Huey was in charge of the train.
It was an Altoona crew. When En
gineer Kirkpatrick saw that the
train was beyond control, he whistled
a warning that was noted at CY
tower at McGarvey's and word was
sent to the tower below, with the re
sult that there was a clear track all
the way through the yard as the
train came down off the mountain at
a high rate of speed.

FIGHTING MEN MADE
HAPPY BY SMOKES
[Continued from First Page.]
received tobacco donated by the
"Picket," "I wish to thank you for
the tobacco and cigarets that I re
ceived to-day. I notice that you sign
yourself a "A Picket of the Civil
War," care of Harrisburg Telegraph,
, Harrisburg, Pa. The tobacco with
'the postcard sure was welcome. In
cidentally my father fought with tne
78th Ohio Regiment in the Civil War.
Ho is a member of the Lytle Post.,
G. A. R., at Cincinnati, Ohio. In my
next letter to him I am going to
give liim your address and ask him
to write to you as I am sure that the
correspondence between you will be
mutually pleasant. Well I guess that
you are reuding the papers and see
ing that the American boys are do
ing some fine work. lam sure that
the Kaiser is aware of the fact that
Uncle Sam does not take any fool
ing. We tre all doing our part
to bring about a speedy peace." The
author of this missive is Sergeant
Claude W. Hiskett, Salvage Com
pany 15, A. E. F., son of S. F. His
kett, 3070 Wardell Avenue, Cincin
nati, Ohio.
"Smokes came intact," wrote Ser
geant J. H. Dietz, serving "Some
where in France," recently to the
"Picket." Sure is great to get a pack
age from the good'U. S. A. Thanks
8,000,000 times. Yours to the Kai
ser falls!"
Another Yankee writing to the
"Picket," thanking him for tobacco
sent a short time ago and asking
that he writeto Mrs. Michael Adams,
rear of 189 Boyer street, Johnstown,
Pa., to secure the recipient's address,
closes his letter thus: "Hoping you
may live to see the boys return vic
toriously from this war. I remain
yours with thanks, Private Philson S.
Rager. Infantry, U. 8. A."
Tlumks "Elgin Children"
"Received" a package of tobacco
you sent to us boys and I waa very
glad to get it," writes still another
soldiers to the same honor, "as we do
not get American tobacco very often.
I thank you very much for it and
wish you all the luck in the world."
Signed Private Jesse B. Bracken.
Eight children of this city who.
jointly sent a package to some bravo
Yankees at the front, got this re
ply from the latter: "Dearest Chil
dren: I am sending my greatest
thanks to every one of you for good
hearts and willingness to brighten
our days in this little, torn part of
our world. Good smokes we gen
erally come to when artillery near
begins to play on our nerves too long.
It's a fine thing to have. I thank
you." The same eight children who
had sent a bax of tobacco to Ser-
geant J. W. Dixon received this
reply: "Received a lovely box of
tobacco this week and believe me I
feel better. Many thanks for your
gift, was once a kid myself."
