While the Harrisburg district is
figuring on a campaign through
which 5000 men will be recruited
for the Regular Army, the question
arises: Who is going to pay the
upkeep of these boys?" And the
answer so far as thousands of people
in the district is concerned has been:
"Pll hold up my end. I'll do more
than talk with my mouth. I'll talk
with my pocketbook-and buy a
bondn'
1t was the concensus of opinion
among members of the Dauphin
county executive committee this
morning that there are nearly 10,-
900 people in Dauphin county who
will do more than talk with their
months" Realization of the fact
that this is real war-and that a
real war can't be won on wind, has
resulted in widespread determine
tion to buy the new Liberty Loan as.
At yesterdays meeting of the loan
board the city was divided into seven

Spectacular Fighting High
in Air Saves London From
Serious Damage in Raid

London, Oct. 2.-Londoners, de-
spite the repeated German attempts
to drop bombs upon the city, are
standing the test well. Last night
when two squadrons of raiders sue
ceeded in getting close to London
and some of their number over the
city, there was no panic and no out
ward incident
Ten persons were killed and 50
injured.
Immediately the coming of the
raiders was signalled the people in
the streets scurried for cover, while
motor buses and cars drew up to
the curb where the passengers
alighted quickly. Within five min
utes the streets were deserted vir-
tually and a strange silence fell over
the city.
Most of the offices and shops had
closed before six o'clock to permit
their employees to reach their homes
and there was only fraction of the
number of persons in the street as
under normal circumstances. With
the gathering of dusk many of the
poorer classes, particularly the
women and children, had gathered

Hall and st. Pauls and other places

Matter of Course
The air battles over London have
become so much a matter of course
that whenever there was a lull for a
few minutes in the firing the buses
started running again and the peo-
pie flocked into the streets.
While a terrific barrage was kept
up by the defense guns with the

the greatest pyrotechnical displays
London ever saw, a thrilling battle
in the air took place between enemy
