CITY IS PLEASED
AT SHOWING MADE
FOR RED CROSS
Suburban Committees Did
Splendid Work in Big
Campaign

While a number of large subscrip-
tions were reported at the final gath
ering of the Red Cross workers in
Chestnut street hall yesterday after
noon, the report greeted with the
loudest applause was that telling
that the men employed by the Har-
risburg Pipe and Pipe Bending Com
pany had subscribed $10,405.75.
This was an entirely voluntary sub
scription and is on line with what
the Pipe Bending Company itself is
doing in war work. The company's
own subscription was $4,000, while
ii is whispered that the three owners
of the corporations and their wives
are responsible for several times that
sum.
When the reports of all the teams
had been read yesterday the total
was only $4,000, but Chairman
Hildrup said he had reason to be-
lieve that there was some money
elsewherer: and he called upon
Chairman Cahill of the Industrial
committee to tell what he had done
in the various plants of the city.
The Crowd Wakes
I'VE have not finished our work."
said Chairman Cahill, but with sew
eral plants yet to cover and returns
certain to continue arriving till the
close of the week we are safe in
saying that the men and women in
the citys industries will contribute
30,000-and of this sum $40, ,405.75
is the subscription of the men work
ing at the Pipe Bending plant"
This announcement woke up the
crowd.
But that isn't the last of our
subscriptions" said Mr.. Hildrup.
There is a man in the audience who
has been hard at work in the COM
munities outside of Harrisburg; and
several days ago when the Blue
Devils were here he took them from
us for an entire day and exhibited
them in all sections of the adjoining
territory. 1 am anxious to know
whether their visit to the auxiliariel
was as productive-as Mr.. Jennings
said it would be-
Mr.. Jennings proved a true
prophe. On behalf of the auxiliaries
and branches in Dauphin, Perry and
part of Cumberland county he
guaranteed not less than $S0,50O to
the fund.
Il want particularly to call at
tention to the town of Gratz," he
said. 1T is as you know a very
small community as to population.
but it has Il wonderfully large heart.

Well Known Harrisburg Residents, in Interviews,
Tell Of Discovery That Brought Them Happiness
FEET BOTHERED
WOMAN ALWAYS
Trouble Was So Bad That at
Times Mrs. Gray Could
Hardly Get About
TANLAC BROUGHT RELIEF

II can't begin to tell you how
suffered with my feet and limbs,
said Mrs. Velma Gray, of North Sew
enth street, Harrisburg.
"They troubled me constantly and
crippled me so that L often was UNI
able even to walk about the house.
1T was awful. My feet would
burn like fire all the time and moth
ing 1 could do would give me any
relief, although 1 tried everything l
could think of.
Then suddenly they would begin
to swell and they would puff up
until there was a great ridge at the
top of my shoes and 1 would have
agonizing pains in both feet and
limbs.
Finally l made up my mind to
try Tanlac as a last resort and to my
delight it began to help me right
away. Now the swelling and pain
have all gone away and | can walk
all day without suffering at all.
1T certainly is wonderful re-
lief and | cannot find words to ex-
to spread the news of my relief far
and wide so that others may benefit.
Anyone who suffered as I did can
get the same results from Tanlac, /
feel sure"

Liberty bonds, $4,000 of the second
and $4,000 of the third. 1 sug-
gested that perhaps it could raise
$500 for this fund. 1t has now con-
tributed $500 and says it will get
$500"
Considering the population of the
outside towns, if Harrisburg men
and women had subscribed in like
proportion the total collections by
the teams would have been $3.50, 900
instead of $92. 900: and if the Gratz
example had been followed every in
habitant of the district would be
listed as a contributor.
A feature of the reports was that
of Mrs. James |. Chamberlain, who
told what the young women have
collected who manned the booths
OH the city streets during the last
week.
Girls Work Hard
The total of these collections was
$2,624.99, Mrs. Chamberlain re-
ported, and the girls insisted on
working the balance of the day.
Chairman Hildrup then read q
list of contributions secured by the
executive committee. These included
IL subscriptions of $4,000 each, one
of $4,000 and two of S2,5SO each,
or total of $4,000. which brought
the grand total to s22S,259.19.
Mr.. Hildrup took occasion to thank
the women's teams. which under the
direction of Mrs. Marlin f Olmsted
performed so we'll that their total
collections were five to one greater
than those of the mems teams. One
entire division of mems teams, in
failed to report single
dollar for the week; and another
division worked two days for total
of less than $400.

WILL CONTINUE DRILLS

The students OF the Technical High
school were so pleased with the drills
they were taught by members of the
Harrisburg Regular Army recruiting
party for the w. S. S. parade last
week that they voted to continue
drills for the remainder of the
school term. Regular instructors
from the Harrisburg station are now
detailed every Tuesday and Thurs
day afternoon to drill the young men
in setting up exercises.

be in a stevedore regiment or service
battalion. OF course, IL is unfortu-
nate for a man who has a certain
amount of education to be forced to
do such work. We can take such q
man in artillery, give him q fine OPP
portunity to qualify as a noncommis-
stoned officer-and, perhaps. go to the
officers training school. Whereas, he
would be lost in the general mass
were he to be merely loading ships or
building roads.

only few days, and men who wish

Kelker street, mother of four-year-
old Clara Reneker, one of Harris

MY little daughter suffered from
stomach trouble and used to have
terrible convulsions. The doctors
could give her no relief. She grew
very thin, lost her appetite, and was
sick all the time.
Then her grandmother recon-
mended Tanlac to us and 1 started
her in on it. The results were remark
able to say the least. She now eats
anything she wants and her little
stomach digests it perfectly. The
convulsions have disappeared and
she has regained her strength. So
successful was it in her case that I
gave it to her baby sister and it
helped her wonderfully over her Sec
ond summer. We heartily recomd-
mend Tanlac because OF what it has

FORMER MISHAWAKAN
HAS NEW INVENTION

Alfred F. Lawder, general mana
ger of the George c. Clark Metal
Last company. has just returned
from New York where he inspected
Mr.. Clark's new invention of maxi
ing copper bands for the large cali
Der guns
Since the war broke out Mr.
Clark has devoted practically his en-
tire time TO his new invention, which
has been passed by the government.
1t consists of a revolving die which
forms a perfect band; whereas these
bands were formally cast in sand.
Mr.. Clark's process eliminates the
annealing of the band which the
sand cast band must undergo. These
bands are pressed into the large
shells which form the rifling for the
guns.
Mr.. Clark now has several Of his
machines in operation in the east.
He is a brother of Harry Clark of
the Mishawaka laundry and a for
mer resident here.
