Coal Administration to
Name Two New Members

The Retail Coal Dealers Associe-
tion had representatives at the meet
ing of tho Dauphin County Fuel Ad-
ministration's meeting Yesterday aft
ernoon. A number of suggestions
were made by both sides relative to
the handling of the fuel supplies in
the county. 1t is likely that in the
near future the matter of the mini
mum amount of coal to be sold to a
consumer and the price to be charged
for the same will be set.
Names were considered for the ad
dtional two members of the commits
sion at the meeting, and 1t is likely
that announcement of at least one
new commissioner will be made in a
day or two.

A Little Prccaution Right Now Saves
Untold Annoyance

Untold Annoyance
You who have been afflicted with
Catarrah. know that with the first
signs of cold and damp weather the
disease will promptly return. and re-
main an unwelcome guest as of yore.
Why not save yourself the suffer-
ing and inconvenience which your
experience tells you is in store for
you.
Avoid the folly of waiting until
the diaease has you within its grasp
again.
Proper treatment is worth a great
deal more right now than later. Ca
tarrh cannot be permanently cured
by local treatment with sprays,
douches, ointments, washes, etc.
Science has proven that the disease
is in the blood.

KNITTED GOODS
Officers of Red Cross Ask
Women to Knit Instead of
Work on Xmas Gifts

Women of Steelton and surround
ing towns were requested to knit in
stead of preparing Christmas gifts.
by officers of the local Red Cross
chapter, this morning.
In order that Steelton can supply
its quota of the knitted goods it is
necessary for the local organization
to supply 500 NOR units. This work
must be completed shortly. The local
body has already sent 1900 articles,
BY thissappeal officers of the chap
ter do not ask the women not to give
Christmas presents. They mean that
the women should give something
for presents that does not take up
much of their time in preparing
them.
Officers this morning emphasized
the immediate need of help to fill the
allotment of knitted goods. Workers
are anxious that Steelton maintain
its good record in supplying material
and money.
The card party held in the head
quarters last night for the benefit of
the soldiers fund netted the local or
ganization almost 5000. About $50
persons were in attendance. The ac-
counting department of the local
steel plant presented the local ofiic
ers with S13 for the Christmas fund.
A shipment of 400 gifts has been
made and a box of 200 is being pre-
pared for shipment this week. This

If American fashions are ever to es-

Importance to set the example and
the national capital as the stage. To
make prophecy on next winters

minded women or short-memoried men
would have one believe-for Washing

subjects, as anyone must know who
is familiar with the workings of the
official and social claims of states

ciers throughout the past few months.
While billions are being voted to
the relief of governments, some odd
thousands OF dollars are being spent
