The parade Of the Harlan shipbulld-
ers on Saturday is to be exhibited IN
movies 10 the American. French and
British soldiers in France, to cheer
them up and make them realize that
while they are lighting against many
difficulties, that their fathers and broth
ers and sisters at home are pulling
strong" and that aid sorely needed now
is but a question OF few months
time.
A moving picture OF the parade was
made on Saturday and this will be
given a private showing to the Har-
Ian wOrkmen at one Of the big movie
theatres here soon. In connection with
the showing Of this picture Is coupled
the raising OF funds with which TO
send a Harlan Ambulance TO France,
which shall have been raised through
subscriptions from the workmen.
Some Of the wOrkmen have suggested
that an admission fee be charged 10 see
the movie OF the parade, and that a big
start for the ambulance fund could be
obtained IN this way. This detail Is
being considered by the W0rkmen's Ad-
vlsory Council and tho date OF the
showing OF the fun Will be announced
later.

Miss Harvey, Of the committee on pub
lie information, New York City-the
Government news bureau. She wired
that she would like 10 have two copies
Of the hlm TO send abroad 10 France. to
show the boys over there what VIII
mington shipbuilders were doing, and
she believes that the sight Of the local
shipw0rkers on parade would prove Of
much cheer TO the men IN the trenches.
Her request Will be complied with.

they furnished the music for the flag
raising at the Pusey and Jones Co. plant.
When The scarcity Of bands, duo to the
Harlan parade, threatened 10 put the
Pusey and Jones workers TO some dim
Guilty TO obtain q band the Harlan
bandsmen volunteered TO give tneir fell
low shipbullders a lift" and the result
was that they furnished tho music. The
Harlan musicians then led the parade
from their own plant and then went TO
Chester in the afternoon, where they
again led the parade Of the workers Of
Chester, Pa.
10 is interesting 10 note that the PIPE
