large gray cat utterly destroyed a

The bluebird also comes easily. He
is useful as well as ornamental and
kills thousands of insects that would
destroy the crops. He sings tru.aIly

I'M. tnree fundamental influences bearing on
the future OF our business situation are the
high prices of material, inadequate transporta-
ton, and the labor situation. Those who are
closely identified with the coal producers are
emphatic in their statement that there would
be no reason for apprehension on the part OF
manufacturers and consumers of shortage
of fuel if the two disturbing features OF that
industry were overcome; namely, inadequate
TRANSFORMATION and inefficient labor The
labor .ituation in the coal mines has been
unsatisfactory for years and is growing more
so. Producers say that it is practically impos-
sble to calculate what the production for
given period will be because of the tendency
to call strikes on the most trivial preteSt. The
higher wages paid coal miners and employees
seem to increase rather than decrease the re-
liability of the workers. But added to this is
the lack of care to carry the products of the
mines to the retail markets as fast as the pro-
ducers are able to supply the coal.
Necessarily this fuel situation is factor of
great moment to the industries of this country
for with the shortage of coal or with excess
slve high prices for fuel the production of the
factory necessarily will be affected.

THE REAL FAIRMoNT SPIRIT.

~ HE other day reference was made in there columns
to the amount of work that Chambers of Commerce
do in the course of year which the public never
hears about We printed that editorial because people
who do not understand frequently criGcise Chambers of
Commerce and similar bodies quite unjusty Sometimes
people who do understand also unjusty CRITICAL They
get into the naggng habit. and nothing the representative
BODY of the city can do pleases them or moves them to
generous thought.
When the body really is wide awake one doing good
work good dose Of outside opinion acts like electric
shock upon these pemistc persons. In this connection
The West Nirgnian recalled some correspondence which
last spring passed between c. C. Wedding president OF
the American Valve and Tank company, whose new plant
in this city is about 10 begin operations, and Ernest Smith,
of the indianapolis Chamber Of Commerce, regarding the
change Of location Of the American companys plant

the company and replies by Secretary Smith, which that
gentleman took occasion to pay Mr.. Wedding many COM

Fairmont and the Famont Chamber of Commerce. this
of course written by Mr.. Wedding. and for the purpose
of giving an outside view Of the Famont Chamber Of
Commerce we are going to take the liberty reproduce
here some sentences which we think will do good:
They have in Fairmont, says Mr.. Wedding,
a real live up to date, progressive Chamber
of Commerce that does not boast Of trivial
matters. The dominating influence does not
think that city gets too large to welcome
people and real industries with something be-
sides words and beautiful sayings, but on the
other hand, put a premium individual &C
tivity and energy show the natural resources,
that nature has bountlfully supplied, real
advantages and cooperation vitality essential to
manufacturing enterprises and real people
willing to assist in a substantial way without
owning everything and everybody, These
things are the fundamental essentials to a sue
'cessful industrial center.
Keep your eye on Fairmont. She is an ex-
ample worthy Of notice. We will be glad to
see you in Farmont at any time, and the Fair
mont spirit will endeavor to entertain you.
When he wrote that Mr.. Wedding was not thinking Of
the Chamber of Commerce that all too frequently is unable
to get quorum out for its fixed meeting and which has
to do lot of routine things that while essential duties Of
such body. are far from stimulating to the interest No.
he was thinking of the enteprsng members of the Cham
