traitor How ran we save coal?" asks
another body of citizens which feels
its obligation TO- the government, but
would rather avoid any personal sac
rifce which is not felt to be absolute
~ essential
These questions are being answered
by the chairmen Of the local commit

ing Pendleton and Lewis, in neither
Of which is coal used in sufficient
quantities 10 awaken interest in
fuel conservation campaign.
The latter question intrudes itse
upon the coal administrator Of We.
Virginia very often. His answer is:
You can place thermometers in your
heat by holding the temperature down
to 10 degrees al most, though IS would
be better.
You can have your chimneys. flueS
and furnaces cleaned Of SCOT and kept
clean. and thereby obtain an increase
uf heat with a decreased consumption
Of coal
You can use wood in place Of coal
if YOU reside in the country districts
You can exercise care in the use Of
electric lights. turning them out when
they are no longer needed, and bear il
mind always that every unnecessar'
light in most places in West Eirgini;
means so much coal wasted.
You can talk fuel conservation and

Germans Confident Of
Victory in Offensive ..
On the Western Front

LONDON, Dec. LA generally In
creased confidence in Germany, based
on the Russian armistlce and other
obvious factors, Is shown IN extracts
from the latest German newspapers
telegraphed from Holland. Travellers
arriving in Holland from Germany are
quoted as saying that the German
people are building hopes on a great
offensive in the west, which is re-
sarded as certainly impending. Ma,
jor Moraht, a newspaper critic. pre-
dieting such move. writes In the
Tageblatt:
whenever Germany'S supreme wal
lord or Field Marshal Won Hindenburg
promised our Austro-Hungartan allies
assistance against Russia's mighty
forces it has been promptly assem-
bled. powerful blows delivered and the
Russians driven back. We really dc
not need doubt that this time also
deeds will follow words"
The Koelniche Eolks Zeitung says
that the only battlefield remaining is
the western front. toward which the
hands of the clock of destiny rapidly
are advancing
Our enemies also recognize this.
it adds, "and are crying out for Amer,
lean help. No matter. Justice Is
about to end the war"
90 The Weser Zeitung says: Events
show US distinctly. as in pictures. the
path We must tread: Peace in the
east and battle in the west until We
have achieved there the foundation OF
the complete equality of British and
German positions the world over"
