CORDOvA CHAPTER WANTS
 CLOTHING FUR BELC|ANs

Herbert Hoover. chairman of the commission for relief in Belgium. has asked the American Red Cross. through II. P. Davison. to collect five thousand tons of used clothing for the Bclgians
 The date set for this campaign is September 23 to 30, 1918. The allot. ment given the Cordova Chapter is received. Every kind of garment. for all ages and both seyes, is urgently needed. Garments need not be in perfect condition. \ hundred thou sand destitute women in the occupied regions are eager to earn q small live lihood by repairing gift clothing and making new arments adapted to needs with which they are familiar.
 Every household in Cordova has some spare clothing. worn or out grown. of little use here, but desper- ately needed back of that German wall that has hemmed in so many human beings.
 The Cordova Chapter of the Red Cross appeals again to the generosity of this community to give and give largely The local headquarters is open every day from to ( p m. You will be called upon by phone. Ar rangements will be made to collect these garments if you are unable to send. MRS. C. P. MICHELSON.

were shellproOf and bomb-proof. The trenches there were built along the banks of the Canal du Nord, which runs north and south near Havrin- court
 Important German strongholds pro- teCt the southern section of the line near La Ferc. The forest of St. Go bain presents an almost insuperable obstacle in attacking this end of the line.
 Laon, lying within the big corner" where the line turns eastward along the Chemin des Danes, is regarded as the keystone of the whole German system. Hundreds of German batter vines around that city and in the for est of St. Gobain.
 Southwest of Laon the town was protected by the Massf of Meramp- teuil. behind whose crest are huge un- derground ravines and shelters, some big enough to hold a whole regiment. The forest west of Laon was crammed with a vast store of munitions and materials. Divisions of troops could concentrate in it unseen.
 Recently the Germans discovered that the big dugouts along the Hin denburg line were nothing but death traps An order by the German divi- sional commander forbade the German troops to occupy dugouts which de- scend more than eight steps under ground.
 Behind the Hindenburg line the Germans are credited with three other lines of defenses.

Speed UP engines
At HARLAN PLANT
Build 20 Marine Steam and
Many Auxiliary Machines
in Eight Months
SOME OF THEM ARE
OF 5000 HORSEPOWER

The construction OF twenty marine
steam engines. some Of them Of nearly
three thousand horse power, as well as
many auxiliary engines, in the hrst
eight months Of the year. surprising
by far the output for any similar pc
ri0d, is the achievement Of the engine
shop Of the local Harlan plant Of the
Bethlehem Shipbuildlng Corporation, as
revealed by officials today.
This performance Of speeding up In
the production, demonstrated by the
fact that in the corresponding period a
year ago only eight large engine sets
were built, has been hailed with uni
Versal satisfaction by workmen and Of.
fcials alike. And. as the latter pointed
out in speaking Of the work. II becomes
especially significant because Of the
fact that the Harlan plant, with the ex-
ception Of one yard IN this part OF the
country operates the smallest engine
shop. One result OF the activity so far
has been TO fire machinlsts and erect
ors with keen ambition TO close the
year with the greatest possible total
output, and while no one would say
that plans had been conceived to make
the remaining four months outstanding
in the way Of output, Andrew J.
Schmidt. the superintendent, made the
modest predatory that lat least three
or four Of the biggest marine engines
will be added between now and the
new year
While the twentieth engine set IS not
as yet finished, probably not more than
slightly in excess Of another week will
be required to have II ready for install
lation, Mr. Schmidt said, thus making
the total time eight months and per-
haps a few days
Size of the Engines.
These engines, which range from 400
TO 2sOO horsepower each, were built
for eleven mine sweepers,
six cargo steamships and three tankers
vessels built at both local and out
side yards.
Augmentlng the marine engine con-
structlon is the work Of building forty
condensers to be used in an extremely
important branch Of the government
service as well as thlrty-six highly
specialized auxiliary engines, the ma
ture Of which may not be revealed. In
