HIRTY thousand American engineers are

part in defending the ixnintry, it need comes
The past eighteen months have taught us here in
America what lack ol industrial preparedness has meant
to some of the countries now at war. These nations
had the ships and they had the men; but when the hour
struck, their factories were not able to furnish the colors
with arms and shells and powder Their factories were
not prepared. And our factories are not prepared.
But n it not enough to drtw moral. In the United States five
great Engineering Societies Civil. Mining. Mechanical, Electrical
and Chemical have pledged their aervice to the Government of the
United State, and are already working hand in hand with the Govern
ment to prepare industry for the national defense. The receive no
pay and will accept no pay. All they seek is opportunity to serve their
country, that she may have her industries mobilized for defense.
All elements of the nation's life the manufacturers, the business
men, ami tb workingmen should support this patriotic and demo
cratic work of the engineers, and assist them cheerfully when asked.

The Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, representing
all advertising interests have offertd their free and hearty service to the
President of the United States, in close co-operation with these five
Engineering Societies, to the end that the Country may know what the
Engineers are doing. The President has accepted the offer. The
Engineers have welcomed the co-operation.
This advertisement, published without cost to the United State, i
the fi rat in nation-wide series to call the country to the duty of co
operating promptly and fully with the Engineers.

he stopped the machinery at the Ar
mour plant.
A resular fiction writer with an
eye for the unuaual would have tin
entire hog killing force at the Ar
mour plant quit work inside and gt
out into the hog pens to kill thi:--monster,
which would not go in
through the doors. But since this h
to be a true story it must be Haiti
that the hog really did go in through
the doors of the killing floor, but
that was about all.
This porker weighed 1.000
pounds, was Pix feet in length and
brought hi owner $78.20. YeH. in
deed, some shoal!
The pig was shipped in, not on a
flat cur, but in a regular stork car,
by M. Benedict of Hoskins, Nebr. As
has been stated, the porker weighed
a round 1,000 pounds and sold foi
ls. 50 per hundredweight. When
freight and olher chnrKri were de
ducted, Mr. Benedict found hiniitelf
richer by 178.20.

' said that at least 100 pounds c orn
weight could have been put on the
