COAL SITUATION
IN WATERVILLE

President Harry S. Brown of the
Chamber of Commerce and Mayor Ora
A. Meader gave out the following re-
garding the coal situation in this city
at an interview on Thursday after
noon: After the committee of the
Chamber Of Commerce to consider the
coal situation reported at the annual
meeting, the question of cheaper coal
in Skowhegan came up and the COM
mittee visited that town and found
that the selectmen were selling at
lower price tlan that charged by the
dealers 1t was found that the select
men bought coal from the same place
as the dealers but that they sold direct
from the cars to customers, and did
not have the overhead charges neces-
sary and legitimate with dealer.
Other differences in prices were con-
sdered and the matter was then re-
ferred TO the city government by the
mayor who was a member of the
Chamber Of Commerce committee. and
at the request of the municipal officers
and of the committee he went to
Washington, D. G., and there met Ed
ward E. Parker. director of informal
IlOn III Tic AMIN dtitt DuitdU'
and MIR. Parker informed him that 20
per cent more coal had been shipped
to New England in 1917 than in 1918.
and that from April. 1917, to date more
coal had been shipped into New Eng
land than in 1915. He said that if
Maine and Waterville were not get
ting their share there was some fault
somewhere. and il the dealers here
would take the matter up, they would
have the reason made known. and he
would see that Waterville got its quo
Ia, which would be all the coal neces-
sary for its needs. He then advised
that Mr.. Meader take the matter up
with James j. Storrow of Boston who
was the director for New England. Mr..
Meader did so on his return to Bos
ton. and he said that there would be
plenty of coal come into New England
to take care of its wants, and that if
the dealers here would fill out some
blanks which he gave to Mr.. Meader
he would see to it that they got the
necessary amount Of coal. The COM
mittee will continue its work and will
make an effort to keep in touch with
the government bureaus and see to
il that there is plenty of coal for Wa
tervilie during the winter"

Colby to Play Naval Reserves

Local football fans are looking for
ward with interest to the game which
will be played in this city Saturday
between the Colby team and that OF
the Naval Reserve of Portland 1t is
expected that they will have an OPP
portunity at that time to get some
what of line on what the Colby
team will be for this year. The opin-
ion of those who have been to the
grounds is that there is the prospects
of fair team but that it will take a
lot of hard work by the coaches to
develop il and that the chances of a
winning eleven for this fall are very
small. The late start and everything
else has been against the team as a
winner.

ADJUSTMENTS
"Have a Heart"

Replete with witty lines and tune
full melodies, the new musical come
dy, Have a Heart" was presented
to theatergoers of Augusta and vicin
ity Thursday evening ct the Opera
house and drew a crowded house This
musical comedy drives dull care away
and makes one forget the serious side
of life. Its tuneful music. its beau
tful and attractvely dressed girls and
it's comedy were only few of the
reasons why the production made a
big hit in this city.
The first act depicts the lingerie
section of big department store,
crowded with pretty shop girls and
fashionable patrons. therfor
Schoonmaker. proprietor Of the store.
decides to run his store on new
basis making the first regard for the
salesladies. He establishes a ladies'
rest room. where the salesladies may
GO. eat and drink. and the desires of
the customers are of but secondary
Importance.
A domestic story exists In the pos
sibility OF divorce suit between Mr..
Schoonmaker and his wife, who OBJ
jects to his attentions to one of his
ing picture star All sorts of COM
plications ensue and the story winds
up by reconciliation.
\ great deal OF fun is injected into
the piece by the comic antics of the
elevator boy and the excellent persi-
fage which he INDUCES in. Another
comic element is found in the charac-
ter. the small town detective, who
contrives to make his first case a
world beater.
The scene OF the second act is laid
| in the lounge room at the Ocean
View Hotel. Both settings are taste
full in design and the color schemes
are remarkably fine harmonizing with
the beautiful and artistic costume Gre
ations worn by the ladies of the Choir
us.
The music by Jerome Kern is of an
unusual order and is something en-
tirely different from the ordinary mu-
steal comedy. The song hits are nu-
merous from the first chorus. shop"
to the final song Daisy" Among
these hits are: You Said Some
thing Have a Heart" "Brigh,
Lights" and Honeymoon Inn"
! Only words of praise can he said
! of the principals. who were assisted
by fine cast. Cecilia Wright. who
sings the leading part, has a sweet,
clear voice and a most attractive stage
manner. Miss Hoey. who sings the
part of Dolly Brazazon. is of another

Charles Penlcy. the well-known
farmer Of Frye, rushed into the Rum
ford Falls Times Office Tues
Gay afternoon, and declared tina,
he had been robbed He said
that while he was in his or
chard Sunday afternoon someone went
into his bed room and stole 80 in small,
change from his pants pockets. Mr..
Penley's loss has evidently weighed
very heavily on his mind for he look
ed as II he hadn't slept since the rob
berry. While it is not unusual for a
woman TO take change from her hus-
bands pockets while he is asleep. il
is seldom that we hear OF such a bold
robbery as was perpetrated upon MIR.
Fenley.
