FUEL SHORTAGE HITS FjFTY-TWO AT HAGERSTOWN

Car of Coal Fails to Arrive Suffering in a Number of Families. HAGERSTOWN. Ind.. Jan. 22. Fifty families here are out of fuel today, probably because coal -consigned for this place has been seized else- . where. , Fuel Administrator Bates promised to send a carload here which was seized from the Fort Wayne Traction company. This coal would have arrived Monday, had there not been difficulty with air brakes. Homes that have fuel have been thrown open to those who have no coal. " Shade trees and even fruit trees have been cut down to relieve the situation. . Men employed by the Teetor-Hart-ley Motor company have cut enough wood to heat the factory, and ifwill be opened Wednesday. Willow trees near the site of the employes' last summer's gardens were made into fuel. Run Out of Kerosene Charles Swoveland, who has charge of and delivers oil for the Standard Oil company, says the storage tanks are almost empty. The kerosene shortage will make the situation worse as many use it for cooking and 'also partly for heating. He says a car is on the way. William E. Immel, president of the town board, called the members together Saturday afternoon and acted upon the fuel administration rulings and made decisions which were im- ' poftant as conservation measures.

The municipal electric light plant Is to beshut down every nigh,t until further orders at 11 p. m., and will run during the mornings as short a time as it is possible to give satisfactory service. Sunday morning the plant was shut down and there were complaints by patrons. Gas engine and ail engines are used and the supply of fuel oil will probably lasl for severalweeks, by careful management, the trustees say. . The

business men are co-operating in tht

dosing rules. The president of the board has a list of the names of families that are out of fuel and that will share in the distribution of the coal when it arrives.

THE MAN AND WHAT HE DID

Above Typical crowd of industrial army (left) and Coal Administrator Garfield. Below Soldiers now in France to whom Garfield figures his shutdown order will allow supplies to be sent speedily.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 Coal Administrator Garfield's statement of his hopes and aims in connection with his heatless Monday and industrial shutdown order shows that he intends to force sacrifice on home folk for the benefit of the soldiers in France. Coaling of ships seems to be one of the biggest things aimed at. Garfield

dreds of ships all loaded and ready to sail with supplies and munitions, but which cannot get away because there i3 no coal in thefr bunkers. The shutdown will not tie up industry to its detriment, 4Jarfield claims in the fae of the storms of criticism from manufacturers, because there is so much finished product now on docks which cannot be shipped. - '

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, a's it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or any thing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it In, about a teaspoonful is al! that is required. - It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, Cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh-looking, bright, fluffy, wavy, and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, , dirt and dandruff. Adv.
