Last War Loan Oversubscribed

The fifth and last popular war
loan of the United States has been
oversubscribed Although the ap-
proximate total subscription will not
be known for a week or more fig
ures already available show that
the American people responded gen
erously to the appeal to "fnish the
job"
Like all of its predecessors, the
Victory Liberty Loan suddenly
jumped on the last day of the cam
paign above the mark set as its
limit. The day brought an avalanche
of subscriptions which banks could
could not attempt to count until this
week. None of Saturdays's harvest
was included in the total of $685.
6S8,000 subscriptions officially tabu-
lated by the treasury and officials
would not be surprised to see the
final figures to go nearly S6,0OO,-
100000. Only s4,5OO,OoO,OOO will be
accepted.
Saturday night Secretary Glass is
sued this statement. While the Of
fetal reports to the treasury de-
partment show only s3,849,63S,0 900
subscribed up to noon on Saturday;
unofficial advices from the several
districts indicate that without any
doubt the Victory Liberty Loan is
already largely oversubscribed, with
every district making determined
effort to gather in every possible
subscription before midnight.
"Thus for the fifth time the coun-
try has met the call of the treasury
department for the funds required
and the great Liberty Loan organi-
zation has once again proved its
metle."

Musson, Belgium, April %, 1919.
Dear friend:-
Just a few lines this morning as
sit waiting for my time to come to
take my post as guard which is not
but one hour from now; It's o'clock
now.
Am getting along fine. We are
having some fair weather, some
snow and rain now, although, the
farming class of people seem to be
trying very hard to make another
crop this year, and l don't think
that a good crop would hurt them
at all, for you see they have had
four years of, well, what I'd call it,
a terrible time. You sure can tell it
too by looking at the poor Belgian'S
here in this little town. "Musson,
is little war wrecked village with
a very small population. They sure
seem 10 De very hiiu iieoiSS"
If | could sell my experiences that
I've had over here l would not do
50 for money, and l sure would hate
to take all this over again, but If 1t
needed to be done again, as it was
needed before, ] would do my part
with will, for no one ever gets
tired of doing what is right. 1t
seemed that every body of the A
E. F. tried to do their part, yet some
were not able to do what they want
ed to do. I'm sure proud of being .
member of the A. f. F.
Are you still a member OF the
Red Cross? The Red Cross has sure
been a great benefit to the boys over
here. A Red Cross officer came out
here at Musson a few days ago, he
brought US eight boys out here,
cartoons of chewing gum, 3 or
cartoons of cigarettes also brought
one cartoon, (4s cans), of American
peach jam, and lots of magazines II
read.
There were women and men O

planned that the first train, spe-

THE PIONEER
 AMERICAN LOCOMOTIVE

The first successful locomotive built in America was the Best Friend" which was built at foundry in West Point N. Y, and was given it's first trial trip 8S years ago to- morrow. During the previous yeaP Peter Cooper, the New York philan- thrOpist, had constructed B locomo- tive at his iron works near Balti- more. This locomotive, called the From Thumb" was tried on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, but 1t was too small to have much practical value. A locomotive was imported from England in 1929, and served as a model for the American builders, although it was itself a failure. Sev- eral years passed after the successful test Of the Best Friend" before To- comCtives were very widely used on the few American railroads. These roads were owned by the state, and any person owning @ car and locomo- tive might have use of the tracks This condition of affairs did not last long, and the railroads passed into the control of private corporations, which owned the lines as well as the locomotives stock.

The First Constitution.

The first written constitution known to history was framed at Hartford, 28O years today, Jan. A, 1889. On that date the free planters of Connecticut convened at Hartford and formulated the remarkable docu- ment, which was formally adopted the following April This constitu- tion for civil government, the first of it's kind, formed the basis of char ter afterwards obtained from the King. The charter, which contained more liberal provisions than any that had yet been granted by a monarch, was engrossed on parchment and sent across the sea in costly mahogany box, in which it is still preserved in the state department of Connecticut. The constitution and charter provid- ed for the popular election of the governor and magistrates of the col ony, for the making of laws by the general assembly, and for the organi- zation of a military force.

S1OO,OOO FIRE / THIS MORNING IN
 BUSINESS BLOCK
Continued from Page One.)

The fire was discovered by Seamen gohn Barkley and William Baumann, of the United States navy, who are sta rioned at the plant of the Liberty Ord nance company and who roomed in the house at 147 Golden Hill street. The sailors as soon as they discover ed the blaze in the rug store. inform ed the patrolman at Main and Golden fIill streets, who turned in an alarm from box 316 at 1908.
 It was one of the most difficulty blazes to fight of any fire which has occurred in Bridgeport since that at "A. W. Burritt company, last summer. ,As the flames spread from the build tngs on Golden Hill streets, to the top floors of the Nothnagle building, where large amounts of furniture were stored vast volumes of smoke poured from the building, making it certain death for the firemen to en- Yer the building. Because of this the firemen had to fight the fire from the outside of the building building.

A. or the Y. W. c. A. The activities which will be conducted at the new parish house will supplement and contribute to the work already undertaken by these organizations.
 MT Day states that it is the pur- pose to make the parish a center of civic education for the whole com munity; that 1t will be the servant of the whole community and will en- deavor to promote a higher life for the whole city. As the old church has a rich history in the City of Bridgeport, it is the desire of the congregation to continue it's heritage with greater force in it's new home.
