WEST VIRGINIA IN THE
FOREFRONT SAYS CHIEF PAUL

West Virginia ranks with Ohio,
Illinois and Pennsylvania in inter-
est taken in coal mining matters, 8"
said Chief Mine Inspector j. w.
Paul at his office last evening.
That fact was evident when the
Mine Inspectors Institute of the
United states was formed in Indian
apolis last week. This state was
represented by as many inspectors
as any Of the others. and they all
had some good ideas to Introduce.
Five OF my inspectors were In at
tendance at the meeting Messrs.
LaRue, Springer, Hill, Grady and
Phillips.
"The purpose Of the new organ
ization, Of which you had very
good account in the Mail yesterday.
is to induce the inspectors TO get
into closer touch with each other
and TO exchange ideas looking to-
ward a decided reduction in the
number OF mine disasteJb. And
the purpose will be realized, feel
sure. All the inspectors. and about
twenty-five states are represented In
the institute, showing a great In
terest in the formation OF the or
ganization and each will aid the
other in the purposes intended"
Chief Paul IL given credit with
being instrumental in getting the
institute started and thus drew no
little attention to West Virginia. As
secretary OF the organization he
will have a decided voice I'm the fu-
ture work that will be dome

saying that a man who makes a spe-
cialty OF any one thing knows more
about, and is more proficient in his

else could be. 10 Is for this reason
that we all seek q specialist when
