The Community Club
Resumes It's Work

Last spring it was thought by mem
bers of various Women's clubs of the
city that much more definite work
could be done by uniting the members
in one large club. Accordingly there
was formed "The Community Club OF
Valley City" having as its object Gin
dividual development and united ef-
fort toward harmony, charity and that
broad culture which comes through
service toward others" At that time
all who had paid dues in the smaller
clubs were considered members with
out further payment of dues. The next
meeting OF the club will be held Mon
day. Oct. Is, at $3.50 in the CONNER
cial club rooms. This will be primar-
lily membership rally and all who
wish to join now please be ready to
sign the constitution and pay their
dues as after this those who wish to
Join will be voted upon. The club has
adopted as its slogan "Woman's Ser
vice and Sacrifice" The program COM
mittee under the efficient leadership
of Miss Minnie Nelson has prepared
a most interesting and practical pro-
gram for these war times. At this
meeting the work of the State Fedora
ton in war times will be outlined as
we'll as report of the State Fedora
ton recently held at Dickinson. A
large attendance is desired.

The Presidents Proclamation
by the president Of the United
States, proclamation:
"The second Liberty loan gives the
people Of the United States another
opportunity to lend their funds to their
government to sustain their country
at war. The might of the United
States is being organized to strike a
mortal blow at autocracy in defense
of outraged American right and of the
cause OF liberty. Billions of dollars
are required to arm, feed and clothe
the brave men who are going forth to
fight our country's battles and to as
sist the nations with whom we are
making cause against a common foe.
To subscribe to the Liberty loan is to
perform service of patriotism.
Now; therefore, l, Woodrow Wilson.
president OF the United States, do ap-
point Wednesday, the twenty-fourth of
October, as Liberty day and urge and
advise the people to assemble in their
respective communities and pledge to
one another and tho government that
represents them, the fullest measure
of financial support. On the afternoon
of that day, l request that patriotic
meetings be held in every city, town
and hamlet, throughout the land the
general direction of the secretary Of
the treasury and the immediate direc-
ton of the Liberty loan committees
which have been organized by the fed
eral reserve banks. The people res
pended nobly to the call of the first
Liberty loan with an oversubscription
Of more than so per cent. Let the
response to the second loan be even
greater and let that amount be so
large that it will serve as an assur-
ance of the unequalled support to
hearten the men who are to face the
fire of battle for us. Let the result be
so impressive and emphatic that it
will echo throughout the empire of our
enemy as an index Of what America
intends to do to bring this|Ewar to a
victorious conclusion.
For the purpose of participating in
Liberty day celebrations, all employees
of the federal government throughout
the country whose services can be
spared, may be excused at - o'clock

war motor truck, announced tonight
by the council Of national defense, re-
veal an accomplishment that officials
declare is second. only to the produc-

If necessary, five tons.
+ The truck is Of standard construc-

probably so factories throughout the
country The nations best automobile

Washington, Oct. 11.-Existence of
general coal shortage was admitted
tonight by the geographical survey,
which attributes the situation not to
the failure of producers to do their
best. but to the unprecedented de-
mand. E
"The tremendous increase in manu-
featuring and transporting activity
this year." said the statement issued,
has created a demand for soft coal
in excess Of any in the past. an in
creased and demand that is difficult to
measure in terms of tons, but that Is
certainly more than the 10 per cent by
which production has increased. To
meet this demand, the Operators have
been mining coal at rate never be.
fore eQualled.
The shortage is not due to the fail
ure of the soft coal miners to PRODUCT
more coal than in the past for the
country on September 1 was about
month ahead Of last year in output and
is expected to finish the year with an
increase CT 10 per cent over 1916, the
banner year, and rs per cent over 1915.
in the second week of July, 1917,
the average daily production was more
than 100000 tons, the highest point
yet attained; in the middle of August
the lowest rate for the summer; L.
638,000 tons, was recorded, and in the
last OF September, the daily rate was
1888, 900 TONS
A coal shortage exists in Ohio, fuel
administration officials were told to-
day by delegation of consumers who
came to Washington to protest against
lifting the embargo on coal shipments
to Canada.
Will Apportion Coal T.?
The fuel administrators first move
toward a general apportionment OF
coal, was made today in an order, d.
recting mines along the Pennsylvania
railroad system to supply, under pro
rata plan, all coal the road needs.
Later other roads will be supplied in
the same fashion and the intention
is to distribute coal among users and
industries where it is most essential.
Coal prices in some districts Of
Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia
were raised today by the fuel admins,
tration after it was shown operators
could not mine coal at profit at the
prices fixed recently.
