PENHSY MEN IN
THE WAR TO WIN
President Rea Calls 25O,OOO
Employees TO Cooperate

PERSONAL EFFORT
is COMPANY'S AIM

President Samuel Rea. Of the Penn
sylvania Railroad system, today adj
dressed a communication to each Of
the 250000 employees OF the system
urging that they cooperate with the
railroad and thus with the central
beard OF all railroads, TO demonstrate
the value OF railroads in time OF war.
The address Is in the form Of a cir
cular which outlines the system OF
coordinate operation OF all railroads
into one vast continental system for
war purposes, the work being done
in connection with the National De-
fense Council.
After outlining the coordinate oper-
alton plan as heretofore published
and urging personal effort on the
part Of each employe, President Rea
says:
Il am exceedingly anxious that the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad system shall
do its full part in the work which
the Railroads War Beard has outlined
and ] urge upon every officer and eel

road system must arouse others with

that our homes and country are in
danger, and unless we do our part we
may later on suffer humiliation, II
not invasion, and loss Of life and
property All who are in the service
must appreciate what confronts this
country, and should feel kecnly that
they as railroad employees must aid
In the nations defense, even at a
great personal sacrifice.
"At the outset. railroad men know
that there is a scarcity OF labor and
traffic Is congested They can do much
to offset these conditions by increased

TRUE TO BoCHE FORM

This big liner "a Canadian Pacific
steamer for the ORIENT, luxurious as
a first class hotel, chances to be the
one that conveyed the captured crew
of the Emden back to Great Britain,
The tales the ships officers tell of
that experience are not pretty.
At first the Emden's officers were
given the run of the ship and per-
mitted to dine in the saloon. With
characteristic courtesy they were
wont to toast the Kaiser and curse
his enemies in the presence of and at
the table with the British officers.
Nor would they give their parole not
to continue the practice; thenceforth
they were confined to their quarters.
In retaliation the bed linenO was
slashed, the furniture hacked, and
the cabins grossly defiled. Members
of the Emden's crew were fond of
the pastime of splitting in the faces
of the British sentries, who, rifles in
hand, did not retaliate because they
were British and under orders. 'Tf
they'd had q fair chance, though,
our fellows would have torn the
throats out of the dirty Huns" de-
clared, with intense feeling, the off,

THE HUNTING SEASON

RF OST of the hunters who went
V out Saturday in search of
squirrels had little or no luck.
They returned in large numbers with
empty game bags.
But they are not to be laughed at,
for all that. They brought back with
them something worth many times
the limit of squirrels the law permits
them to shoot. There is nothing like
a tramp through the woods in au-
tumn to bring one to a better under
standing with himself and the world.
hunters. Not the game, but the call
of the open is the influence that
draws them forestward at this sea-
son. There is a tang in the air that
is as full of tonic as an ocean breeze.
There is the odor of fallen leaves
and the swish and rattle of the half
naked branches as the trees sway
and sigh in the autumn winds. There
is freedom from care, refreshmert
for the spirit, enjoyable exercise for
the body and a new outlook on life
for the man who tramps the forests
these brisk days.
The gun is not essential. One may
go hunting with a cane or a camera
and get all the fun out of the woods
that the keenest hunter knows. Try
it-with or without-4here is pleas
ure enough either way. You can't
lose even if you don't see a sparrow.

GERMAN NAVAL FAILURE

= f anything can encourage the
allies to a naval offensive that if
successful would win the war al
most at a stroke, it ought to be
the manner in which the inferior
Russian fleet manhandled the Ger
man dreadnaughts in the recent
Moon Sound fight.
Allied naval experts gave up the
Russian ships for lost. They had
been bottled up" it was admitted
and it remained only for the Ger
mans to go in and finish the job.
Then came the surprising and unac-
countable escape of the Russians
from the trap set by the Kaiser.
There was something mysterious
about this from the first, for it was
perfectly apparent that the Russians
could not have gotten past the Ger
mans without a battle. Now it ap-
pears that they not only fought with
and outwitted the imperial govern
ment's forces, but that they also in
flicted a serious blow to the German
naval machine.
If the Russians can do so much
why cannot the Allied fleets be
brought into position where they can
do more?

gence and splendid demeanor. 1t is.
indeed, remarkable that so many
men could be gathered together,
from all the walks of life, anywhere
in this country, who measure up so
highly, in their personnel and de-
pertinent, as do these thirty thous-
and Pennsylvanians. They are a
credit alike to their state and their
country.
AS a part of her official welcome
to the men and officers at Camp
Hancock, Augusta has arranged a
sort of patriotic demonstration in the
way of a flagraising; a ceremony
quite in harmony with the presence
and participation of soldiers who are
soon to carry their country's battle
onto European battlefields - and
keep 1t there until they return home
victorious.
The scene to be enacted on Angus
ta's streets to-day-with khaki-clad
soldiers marching in battle-trim,
with artillery as it will appear when
ready to be sent onward, with dash
ing cavalry eager for the charge and
with military bands to inspire all
more aggressive action and greater
glory-will soon be re-endcted
somewhere in France;" but with a
far different setting.
Here, all is peace and prosperity.
There; all is tumult and desolation.
We who must remain at home may
we'll let our hearts beat in admira-
ton and gratitude for those who are
going to fight our battles abroad.
They are, in every way, deserving
of Augustus heartiest welcome, of
her greatest hospitality; and it is to
express these sentiments. even in
some meager way, that Augusta
celebrates to-day in honor of the
finest division in Uncle Sans Army.
