Harrisburg went over the top in
its Third Liberty Loan drive this af-
ternoon and the event was celebrat-
ed by a jollifcation that exceeded
anything of the kind in the history
of the city.
The enthusiasm that followed the
announcement to the workers in
Chestnut Street Auditorium this af-
ternoon was all the more marked be-
cause in the past twenty-four hours
the committeeman were called upon
to raise nearly Il million dollars and
it was only by constant and most
heroic work on the part of the vol
unteers, some of whom scarcely took
time for meals or sleep, that the big
sum was realized and a surplus piled
up to help out any of the outlying
districts that may fall short. as it
is feared q few of them will.
OversubsCribe Here
The Harrisburg district went over
the top by 1856, 900 to-day and the
drive is still on.
The quota for Harrisburg was
s3,500,000 and the exact amount
subscribed when the cfty's drive
closed this afternoon was $1,042,O5O

Postmaster Sites made a big hit
10y turning the letter carriers OF the
city over to the loan committee.
They did great work and earned the
commentator so freely given.

committee, went to the platform
and called for members of the Har-
risburg Rotary Club. About fifty re-
sponded and led BY c. Linford Scott

Raid Il Complete Success
Complete success, it is authori-
tatively announced, attended the
dramatic and courageous raid into
the German submarine base at Zee
brugge. The enemy it is said, will be
compelled for some weeks to come
to use Ostend as base and the Brit
ish then can deal more easily with
the German warships and subma-
rines. The channel at Zeebrugge was
blocked and much damage done to
the enemy defenses and shipping.
A change of wind prevented like
success at Ostend, the Germans dis
covering the raiders before they had
time to begin their allotted task. The
Importance of the raid is shown by
the fact that Emperor William Wis
tied Zeebrugge Immediately to as
certain the damage which Berlin in
sists was slight.
1t is reported the vice-admiral In
command at Zeebrugge has been dis
missed.
