SATURDAY f VE?" ASK MERCHANTS OF CITY

NO YON, FRENCH CITY RLflNED BY GERMANS. RAPIDLY REBUILT.

Merchants of the. city asked Thursday whether they would be allowed f to stay open .-. Saturday evenings, and

seTeral met to discuss the question

this morning. No definite answer could be gotten from city officials. ' An order, issued by Harry Garfield. United States Fuel ' Administrator, which will effect Richmond, was received by T. A. Greenstreet, local agent for the C. and O. railroad, Wednesday. The order follows in part: ; "It is necessary that' coal shall be used only for essential purposes. . Pub lie utilities consuming coal should discontinue to furnish power, heat and light to non-essential Industries, and

should only consume sufficient coal to

produce enough light, power and heat - to meet the actual urgent 'needs of the people. Advertising signs and r displays of various kinds necessitating the use of coal, should be curtailed

and no coal should be distributed f or

i M such purposes.

"Pursuant to this policy, I have re-

r., ; quested the railroad administration in

' the distribution of ooaT now, or bereS" after, in its possession, to limit dls

U . tributlon to these essential and urgent

Metises. At far as pracicable, until the

n - conditions warrant change, the dlatrib-

yutlon of coal will be limited to the

f,' first five classes of the priority list

ifa ' "Retail dealers .who distribute coal

p. for household requirements, heating :j hotels, buildings, hospitals, should jf take every precaution to see that coal If, delivered only where It Is absolutely required and then only such limit-

ed quantities that the supply may be

T-, distributed widely and prevent sul

ienng.

Confusion seems to exist among . several of the confectionery dealers j?-ho serve dinner and lunches in "K'i their stores. One dealer, who serves

ed if his store would be considered as

ActemcHt Trdn Control

Urged for All Trains by '' Interstate Commission

.(By Associated Pros) . , WASHINGTON. Dec. 4. The annual

report of the Interstate Com,merce Commission, submitted to Congress today, is comparatively. brief and makes few -recommendations. Federal control

of railways during the last , year, hav

ing taken over many functions of the commission, the report renews mainly recommendations made In. previous years. . It is recommended that the power to award reparation for unreasonable or unlawful charges be placed wholly in

the courts; that the powers of the com-1

mission oe exienaea to noiaing corporations as well as those which act

ually operate interstate transportation lines, and that railroad operating rules be standardized., V The, commission reports againthat In many cases its work has been obstructed because necessary records and data could only be obtained from

holding companies. From its investigations of train accidents the commission's investigators concluded that the falure of engineers to obey signals and failure to provide adequate flag protection for trains continued to be the principal causes of collisions. The use of automatic train control was agin recommended. The investigators also found, the report says, that there was room for much Improvement in the air brake equipment of trains.

FRANCE ALSO HIT HARD By SHORTAGE OF COAL PARIS, Dec. 4. The shortage of coal which caused the police recently to close the dance halls and' later to order all restaurants and amusement places to shut their doors at 11:30 p, m.. is being felt in increasing measure.

resulting in still further restrictions. Effective Tuesday night, the police or

dered two-thirds of the street lights extinguished and the- parks made virtually dark. ..,, 8mall balloons are -sent up twice dally -from thirty-one observing stations In the United States. - t Brazilian cocoanut' palms live" from 600 to 700 years. '

Remarkable aerial view of Noyon, France, as it is today.

The rapidity with which France is rebuilding its cities, wrecked by German artillery, is Indicated in the above picture. Noyon was

captured twice by tht Germans and was under shell fire repeatedly. It was completely in ruins when the conflict ended. But much of it has

been rebuilt in the short space of time since France started its reconstruction work. The cathedral has been almost restored.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I read something In your column written by "High Flutta" Bailie." I would like to say that "Sallie Is very wrong. There Is only a certain kind of girls who allow kissing and hugging and few fellows pick one like that for a wife. Any girl who allows kissing, etc., Is not regarded very respectful around our place. "Sallie" will live and learn. MAY BELL Thank you for your letter. It shows that there is . another who holds my views in regard to kissing. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am corresponding with a friend of mine and have been with him a few times. My girl friend ha3 been going with her friend about five months. We would like to know if it would be all right to give our ftfcndn a picture of ourselves for a Christniwi present? I ex

The father "of the young man is is very rich and is not expected to live long. He threatens to disown his son if he marries against bis wishes. Shall we marry now or wait until

his father dies? Our ages are sixteen and eighteen. WILD DAISY. Are you sure you love the young man and not his money? To marry for money does not bring happiness, and and to marry a man with a rich father

does not insure wealth.

Doubtless your aunt has learned from experience that it was a mistake to marry young. She wants to protect you and keep you a little girl as long as she can. Try to see her point of view,, and, since you live with her, respect her wishes. When you are eighteen you are certainly old enough to have young men callers.
