Snapshots Of kaleidoscope Work.
In all the big cities in France where
our men pass through in large num-
bers, the Y. NJ. C. A. is operating
hosteis, where they can get beds and
meals at q minimum cost. In London
the American Y. NJ. c. A. mas erected
q large building for our soldiers and q
clubhouse for American officers.
There are Y. NJ. C.. A. dugouts right
behind the front line trenches. where
the soldiers can get hot drinks, crack
ers and other comforts at all hours.
Over 1000 men who had been reject
ed ON account OF physical disability
have been able to get into the British
army by reason of the physical work
of the British Y. NJ. c. A.
A feet OF motor cars leaves the Dig
Y. NJ. c. A.~headquarters in London at
midnight every night to pick up sol
diers who are wandering about the
streets without any wholesome lodging
In which to spend the night. These
cars are operated by Englishwomen
of position and refinement, who report
that they never meet any dscourtesy
at the hands of the soldiers. The I'm
portance of this service can be esti'
mated by the fact that at least 10000
soldiers are on leave In London every
week. over half OF these sleep In T.
, NJ. C. A. beds every night.
Entertainment on Vast Scale.
The Y. NJ. c. A. has erected big

COAL FAMINE Is
NEAR WITH COLD
WEATHER COMING
Quarter-Ton Lots Being Doled
Out to Customers by
Dealers
CONDITIONS GET WORSE
Schedules For Next Ship
ments Said to Be IN
certain
CONDITIONS GET WORSE

That the cold wave which has en-
veloped the city during the past few
days finds the coal dealers altogether
unable to cope with the situation,
was conceded to-day by the men han
ding the citys retail supply.
Nowhere near the adequate supply
is on hand in the city's coal bins, it
was said. The amount on hand will
not last long and that is being doled
out in small lots.
One of the largest dealers in the
city is selling anthracite in quarter
ton lots, while the majority refuse
to deliver more than a ton at a
time to a customer. When the pres
cnt supply gives out there is no tell
ing when more can be procured.
All the coal dealers of the city
are dealing their coal out in a way
that will make it last to go around
to as many customers as possible. 1t
was reported yesterday that the
United Ice and Coal Company was
not selling coal in more than quar-
ter-ton lots. orders for future deliv-
cry are not accepted by the dealers.
except at the consumers hazard, as
the procuring of coal in the future
is so problematical. What the deal
ers are trying to do, they say. is to
eke out the present supply of coal
on hand so that there will be no
hardship until a new supply arrives.
Howard Fry. of the Fry Coal Com
pany explained that Harrisburg's po-
sition close to the coal region makes
the predicament worse rather than
letter, since the supply and shipment
of coal from the mines is regulated
hy the Federal Trade Commission.
He stated that in his opinion the
trade commission supplied the needs
of the regions farther removed from

Bit For Nation at War

Registration of women of Harris
burg and Dauphin county began sue
cessfully this morning. Many
women have already signed up at
the local registration bureaus. Mrs.
James I. Chamberlain, chairman of
the work in Dauphin county is
much pleased with the interest
shown by women, in the work A
statement issued by her this morn
ing, emphasizes the following points
which are misunderstood by some
women:
Women are not drafted for
service.
"Registrants will not be taken for
any work unless they offer to do it.
IF a woman registers as having
training, or self-supporting, it does
not make her husband liable to

triotic duty to register"
