what P. E. Industries Did
 To Help Win the War

Dim, Bluff industries helred Uncle ,., and the Allies win the war by ,,rnishing approximately s5,ooo,0oo M N,orth of valuable supplies. You
 ov now raise your eyesbrows in .srnrise. and stretch your cae into .ho shape of an interrogation point
 cotton and lumber is the answer.
 The three cotton oil mills alone, it |, estimated, furnished the govern .onr s3.O00,OOO worth of oil, hulls and ,inters. Everybody knows how .o,uable was the oil to keep all kinds of industries going. But few people ,now that the greases were used to make -glycerine, gentle little ex- n,osive. and the hulls and lintars ,ho,ned to make powder and other explosives.
 Direct or indirect. it makes no dif terence. virtually the whole output of thre three cotton seed oil mills in Pine Bluff-and they are big on 5 went to Uncle Sam. Before he got ;nto the war we don't know how mich went to the allied nations for the same purpose.
 Of course. you didn't know that thousands of gun carriages for all kinds of field artillery have been supported by huge spokes and rims made in Pine Bluff from Arkansas timber. The makers didn't advertise inc fact because they didn't want to
 take a chance at having some Ger man friend blow their mill to smith ereens. Blu tit is real truth.
 Since January. 1915. the Pine Bluff Spoke Company, of which C. A. Dun- nina is the chief, has been turning ont thousands upon thousands of spokes for gun carriages motor trucks, autos and ambulances for the allies. Cince Uncle Sam enter ed the war in 1917 the plant has been running full blast making the same equipment for Uncle. Sam.
 When the war started in 1911, MT.

 knowing that though prosaic and
 simple things, spokes would help win

Now that the war is over, and the work of destruction is done, there come the gigantic work of reconstruct ion. Roads which were blown up by artillery must be rebuilt; bridges be constructed, and the battle fields in general must be policed so that nor nal business of life can be carried on. It always is the work of the Engin- eers to do this. It is faction front for them both in the offense, and the de- fense; in destruction and reconstruct ion In the 9th Regiment of U. S..
