LACK OF RAILROAD CARS.
Coal Companies in West Virginia
Cut Output DO per cent.

Huntington, W. Va, Nov. l. =
While officials of railroads which do
large coal carrying business say the
abnormal demand for cars is being
satisfactorily met, operators having
properties in Southern Ohio, West
Virginia and Eastern Kentucky de-
clared yesterday the production of
their field has been cut in some cases
from 40 to 60 per cent, because of
their inability to set ample trans
portation facilities.
So far, however, it has not been
necessary to suspend operation of
any mines entirely, it is reported,
nor has a scarcity of labor been seri-
ously felt.

REDUCE DEMANDS

Operators Declare Second Re-
duction Necessary Before
Agreement Can Be Reached
in Soft Coal Fields.


New York, Feb. 29.--The United
Mine Workers of America, who are
Iendeavoring to negotiate q new wage
contract for the soft coal fields of
western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana
land Illinois, today made their first
material concession, offering to scale
down their 10 per cent per ton i'm
crease for miners to approximately six
Iper cent net on the mine run basis.
In the western Pennsylvania terri
tory, however, the net advance now
asked by the miners amounts to
|about twelve per cent as in that field
the miners insist upon first raising the
mine run rate to the ohio basic price
land then adding six per cent.
The miners said after today's meet
ling of the joint subcommittee of en-
|ployes and employers that the new
figures are rock bottom prices and will
not be further reduced. On the other
hand. operators said they were not
willing to accept the new proposals.
one of the Indiana operators said he
thought an agreement would be
reached after the rates offered today
We're again reduced.
The new schedule offered by the
miners would add three cents ton to
cost of producing coal in Ohio, Indi-
ana and Illinois and 5.39 cents in west
ern Pennsylvania
The miners declared that if the OPP
orators finally decline to agree to the
demands as they now stand, they will
give up the desire for an interstate
agreement and go beck to fight out
the differences in the several states
and sign up, If possible, contracts by

Tidyr,css a Virtue.
rHoUGH tidiness is regarded as

~HOUGH tidiness is regarded as a
natural feminine virtue, 1t is sur
prising how often you find it lack
ing In q woman. In many instances
1t IL due to the fact that mothers
are not sufficiently particular in training
their daughters to neatness and tidiness
in their early days. Unless the habit Is
cultivated in the child 1t Is almost mpos
sble to develop 1t in womanhood.
A little girl should be taught from the
beginning never to leave her clothes
about the room, but to put them away
where they belong. She should be mads
to put her toys away neatly and carefully.
She should betaught that no tidy little
girl Is found with dirty fingernails, and
that no tidy little girl would ever dream
of going to bed without brushing her
teeth: that nice little girl who can ply
a needle at all is not justified in going
about with buttons off her dress or holes
in her stockings.
Unless the girl is insistently checked
OF careless habits and untidiness, you
can be pretty sure she is going to grow
up big girl with slovenly characteristics
to spoil her possible good looks.
A grownup girl or woman who is care
less about her room or her home is in
variably untidy about her person

Tidiness is habit. 1t is habit tie

You've got to be tidy all the time.

AUSTRALIAN RECRUITS

sydney, Australia, Jan. 30.-The
military authorities are having an in
creasingly difficult task in preserving
discipline among the Australian re-

outbreaks by soldiers, resulting in the
burning of tents, the stoning of Greek
fruit shops and oyster saloons in Sgd

soldiers en- masse TO pay their fares
on the state-owned railroads.

the problems facing the military

you haven't been taught yet, but al

speaking to an officer you should
stand at attention" The recruit eyed
the officer critically and then turning
on his heel remarked: well, If that's
the way you're going to take it |
won't bother asking YOU any ques-
