tain an adequate car supply and quick
er movement of cars vixen filled.
Reports from eastern and middle
western coal fields indicate the car
shortage has reduced output from two
thirds to three-fourths of capacity.
There is every indication, according to
members of the association, that cold
weather will still further reduce the
output unless immediate remedial
steps are taken and that serious en-
barrassment to users of bituminous
coal, including public utility plants sup.
plying eastern cities with light and
power, will result.
To minimize the efforts of threatened
shortage, operators will consider for
submission to H. A. Garfield, fuel ad-
ministrator, general program calling

Uncle Jimmie McWilliams
Firmly Believes He Will
Die Soon.
'B|DD|AG FRIENDS GOODBY
Was TO 4 in a Vision That
lie Would Live Until
1918.
BIDDING FRIENDS GO0DBY

Earnest in his belief that he has
but one more month to spend in this
world after November, Uncle Jimmie
McWilliams ,one Of the oldest resi-
dents Of the city, is bidding farewell
to all his local friends. About five
years ago an angel appeared to Uncle
Jimmie, saying you will live until
1915" Without saying another word
the angel disappeared. Since that
time Uncle Jimmie has remembered
the exact words that the angel said
ard has been looking forward to jan
uary 1, 1918, as the latest possible
day that he can spend in this world.
According to the prophesy literally
Interpreted he may live until the lat
ter part Of 1918, but according to
Uncle Jimmie this is not probable. He
is IS years old; day b yday he is be.
coming more feeble and he believes
that with the approach Of 1918 he
will receive his call.
Believeing that he has but few
more weeks to live, Uncle Jimmie has
placed life insurance. For many
months he has been receiving a
monthly income Of four dollars from
thu city. II he dies he does not want
the city to have the expense of his
burial and 1t is for this reason that he
has had his life insured. .-
Monday he was at the city hall bid
ding the city officials farewell, and 1t
was then that he told the interesting
story Of his experience with the angel.
Since that time he has been making
other visits over town bidding his
friends goodbye. He is planning to
leave Thursday morning for Akron.
o., whereShe will spend farewell
visit with his daughter, Mrs. Lille
Fletcher.
Uncle Jimmie is IS years old and
has resided in Fairmont for over 20
years. For several years he occupied
a little house at the local wharf. Dur
in the Civil war he was teamster,
but having received pay for his SER
vices, he is now receiving no pension.
Uncle Jimmie is the father Of four
teen children.
He says that he Is Christian and
is prepared to die at any moment that
he is called. He is well known and
respected by many Fairmont r-ople.

SCHOOL CHILDREN
GOOD SPENDERS;
BETTER FARMERS
They Also Have Considera-
Bile of a Record as Mon
ey Savers.
CANDY THEIR FIRST LOVE
Some Interesting Financial
Facts Cleaned in the
Grades.

In order to get some little idea OF
what school children expend each
week for chewing gum, candy and the
movies, figures were recently compiled
by school authorities of the Fairmont
Independent district which bring to
light the fact that in the sixth, seventh
and eighth grades of the city schools,
tic sum OF s1Os49 is expended weekly
for these luxuries by 42S children en-
rolled.
The children enrolled in these three
grades range in age from eleven to
fourteen years.
The sum OF $44.91 is expended by
these pupils for candy. The sum Of
$23.30 for chewing gum while S4l.2S
goes to the movies each week.
More impressive by tar is the show
ing of the earning capacity OF the chill.
dren in these same grades. The sum
of $6,S46.S2 was earned during the sum.
mer vacation by the boys and girls Of
the sixth, seventh and eighth grades
of the schools according to figures com.
piled by City Superintendent Otis G.
Wilson and the principals of the vari.
GUS schools. .
Out of the $50 pupils enrolled in the
sixth grades, 81 worked during the va.
cation and earned an aggregate of g..
1850. Out of.the 121 4enrolied in, the
seventh grades. Sc worked during the
vacation and had an earning capacity
Of $1,509.12. Out OF the 1877 enrolled
in the eighth grades, so worked and
earned the sum of $3,2O1.90.
These pupils range in age from II to
IA years OF age. The statistics COM
piled showed that many of the chill
dren maintained gardens of their own
during the vacation while others as
sisted in garden work.
The figures show that 234 children
in these three grades maintained their
own gardens while 224 aided in gar
den work.
In addition to the following figures
statistics were taken also in these
grades to ascertain the frugality Of the
children and to stimulate frugality
wherever possible.
The figures compiled show that 226
children in these three grades have
savings accounts totalling s14,3S206.
In the sixth grades 103 children have
savings amounting to the sum OF ST.
401.32. The seventh grades have 81
children with accounts aggregating the
sum of s2,66S.75 and the eighth has
So pupils with savings amounting to
s4,311.99.
In recent census taken of the High
school pupils 1t was found that out of
an enrolment Of 1913 boys that 81 of
that number had earned the sum Of
S21,656.95 during the vacation.
