Buy Your Coal Early If the public postpones buying coal as it did last year, there .will be the same inability to obtain fuel andthe. same howling against profiteering. It was "clearly established last year that the lack of soft coal was not due to the inability of the mines to produce it, but to the inability of the railroads to transport it. . ' There will be a coal shortage a? sure as fate this summer and fall, if consumers do not place their orders now and begin to lay in their supply for winter. This is not the statement of operators, but of Ehis Searles, who is editor of the United Mine Workers' Journal. This is the appeal of the miners themselves to the American public to buy coal how while they have the chance. At present about 100,000 coal cars are idle. If. the demand for coal were normal, all these cars would be in operation. They would be traveling north and west in long strings, and returning to the soft coal fields in large numbers. And the mines would be working at maximum capacity instead of at less than 40 per cent as they are doing now. i "A coal shortage for 1921 is staring the American people straight in the face and I believe it is time to warn the public of the seriousness of the situation," says Mr. Searles, who ipeaks for the coal mineis and not for the oper

ators. "And when it comes the people will have bnly themselves to blame for it." Everybody should be buying coal right row. On the contrary, no one is buying coal. One hundred thousand coal miners are out of work- Hundreds of coal mines are closed down and hundreds of others are working one or two days a "week. There is no market for soft coal and production has dropped to the lowest point since J.914. This means a coal shortage later in the eason as sure as fate." j' A little reflection will make us see this situation clearly. A miner can produce only so much coal in a given time. The output of the mines cannot be increased beyond this amount. The railroads can haul only so much. The amount of coal that can be supplied to the consumers, as can readily be seen, is limited by the ability of the miner to produce and the carriers to haul. Let there be a sudden demand for coal, and what happens ? I Coal users will rush into the market, frantically bidding against each other, and sending the price of the fuel to the skies. That's what happened last year. And the railroads, burdened with the crop movement, will be unable to transport the coal from the mine to the distribution points, causing a fuel shortage and intense suffering. Both the representatives of the miners and

Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton A "want ad" sandwiched between classified advertisements for a book-1 keeper and an automobile repair man in the "Male Help Waned" columns of a Boston evening newspaper called for a1 minister "between thirty and forty years old, who is a parish worker." This, in other words is a chance for a good man. Somebody has said that "cocaine is getting to bo a drug on' the market". Well, we shouldn't wonder. WHOSE?

the operators tell us that a shortage and high prices this fall can be avoided if consumers will place their orders for their known requirements now. This will start the coal moving from the fields to the bins of the consumers. A renewal of buying by the public will put thousands of idle miners to work. Coal will again be delivered to the railroads, which will begin to

utilize the idle cars on the sidings, and give work j to the thousands of railroaders who have been' laid off because of the slump. . The wise consumer will take cognizance of

conditions in the industry and lay in his supply while he has an opportunity. ' If huge piles of coal were awaiting transportation from the mines, and if the railroads were able to move coal in large quantities this fall, there would be

no need of stocking up the bins now. The ex-' perience of the last two winters ought to prove j to us that the foregoing condition does not exist, i Mr. Searles is right in sayinghat the output j of the 'miners is limited- In a given number of j

weeks they can mine only so much coal. Their output cannot be increased indefinitely to meet an emergency. If we want to be sure of our coal supply, now is the time to order it. An investigation of the coal industry has revealed that one reason for high prices is the fact that the miner cannot be kept busy the year around. If he could, a surplus would accumulate, which could supply us with the coal whenever we needed it. Owing to the idleness in the coal fields now, and the inability of the roads to transport coal in quantities sufficient to meet the needs of the nation in a few weeks, it behooves us to help the situation by buying now.

The Value of Vocational Training Statistics gathered in a season of industrial depression show that the unskilled worker is the first man to be discharged and the trained mechanic the last one to go. They also show that as the trained worker grows older his earnings increase, whereas the pay of the unskilled worker, who depends more upon his brawn than his brain, gradually become less as his physical strength decreases with the lapse of years. Here is an important factor that many boys who are tempted to leave high school before they have completed the course should take into con

sideration. The

knows the principles of operations, the mechanic who links his brain and brawn, is the one who has the best chance to succeed. The high wages which sometimes are paid to unskilled workers may tempt the high school lad to throw his books into a corner and forsake the school room; but whenever he does, he is starting out on a course

that leads to no assured place in the great industrial world. The boy who looks upon study as a means of preparing himself adequately for his life's work is the one who is equipping himself to meet con ditions. He need not fear unemployment or old age. He knows that the more highly skilled he is in his calling, the less are the chances of his discharge. Take advantage of the vocational courses in the high school, and you will be on the track that leads to the highway of success.

Mother sent them into the garden to play, but it. was not long bfore cries disturbed her. "John, what is the matter with baby, row?" she inquired from her wash-tub. "I don't know what to do with him, mother," replied John. "He's dug a hole aud wants to bring it into the house." A man on the Sou!h Side advertised his car for sale. Early the next morning a man who lived across the street came over and said: "Pardon me, but I see by last night's paper jou advertised your car for sale." "Quite true," said the man who advertised the car, "but surely you are not in the market for it." "No," was the reply, "but I only live across the street and I also want to sell a car. And there would be no need of my spending my money for an advertisement if people were through looking at your car you could just send them across the street to look at my car." He was unaware of the eccentricities to be found in western CanadaHe entered what was apparently the only hotel in the place. After ushering him to a table and giving the stranger the usual glass of water the waiter inquired: "Dinner is served, sir. Will you have sausages on toast?" "No, I never eat 'em!" "In that case, sir," replied the waiter, moving away, "dinner is over." m Salts nausea. Try it when bilious, headachy or constipated. Warning!

educated worker, the man who Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON j My neighbor, Hiram Henry Hicks, is fond of talking politics; that i3 a theme that makes me sore, so Hiram Henry seems a bore. But I'm the sort of saphead wight who always strives to be polite, so I pretend that H. H. Hicks, with all his talk of politics, is holding me entranced, spell-bound; I do not yawn or rubber round, but hang upon his throbbing words as though they well might charm the birds. But when Henry Hicks runs dry, and I would talk of books or pie, or any topic I adore, he looks upon me as a bore; he interrupts and yawns and sighs, and hot tears gather in his eyes, and then he reaches for his hat, his parasol, brass knucks and gat. and hastens from my humble i'hack he cannot bear to hear me clack. And Hiram Hicks is short of friends; the people shun him as he wends along the main street of our town; he as a bore has wide renown. But when I trip along the street I'm smiled upon by all I meet. This moral then these facts afford: You must be willing to be bored if you would bore the other toff, and talk his blooming whiskers off.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up OTHER MEN Confucius, who lived about five hundred years before Christ, once wrote: "When you see a good man. think of emulating him; when you see a bad man. examine your own heart. i We really learn more from those who lack what we have than from those who have what we lack. The accomplished man reviews the general achievements of the one gifted and trained In like manner to himself but to see the one in crude ignorance, or in dull stupor, is to push the blood of one's veins that his ears may be pricked to listen and his brain to think. Other men are our teachers. They are our examples of conduct and achievement. We are in doubt as to what road to take, whereupon we see a strong man unhesitatingly make his turn and we say, "Let us, too, travel that way." Bach of us has his "other men." But to others, we are the "other men." And yet each of us may evolve his own plan or philosophy of life, and each of us must defend it at the common bar of right and justice. We are not answerable to books, however, or to judges self-appointed, but to the controlling forces of the universe whose influence is a vital part of every time and age. People reward and punish themselves. Behind every experience, however, like a grat curtain, is hung the influence of other men ready to teach, admonish, and point out But we must use our eyes and our judgment. We must think! Other men must not know that we are using them to make ourselves more useful and supreme. They must learn their value to us In the service we perform to them unconsciously.

Answers to Questions V . I BOY READER Will you please tell about the jumping mouse? The jumping mouse is one of the most interesting of North American wild mice. It takes its name also that of kangaroo mouse from the long and strong hind legs and its habit of running in long leaps. It inhabits brushy places by preference and lays up no store in winter, but constructs a warm, ball-like nest, placed in a thick bush or often within an abandoned bird's nest, where it hibernates during the cold months in a dormancy more profound than that of any other American animal. This mouse has a very long tail. It is limited to the eastern half of the United Slates, but similar species exist in western North America and in Europe. M. E. H.
