In Need Of Aid.

A meeting of social workers of the
State, called Sunday at Louisville for
the purpose of considering the after
math care in the counties seriously
stricken by influenza, declared unani-

to the social agencies in the respective
counties, lin cooperation with the
Red Cross, the onus to be on the latter
to see that proper care is given.
A committee was appointed to go
lead with the collection of informa-
tibn regarding conditions and facili-
ties available for carrying out relief

plotherless and whole families will be
Sd weakened that they will need as
s'stance for some time to come. In
any cases, even when physical
rength returns, there will be a
layy burden of debt impossible to
try without outside aid.
It is proposed that each county shall

practicable in some of the poorer

the Weather communities to add a
little more to their quota in order that
their sister counties shall not suffer
The meeting was we'll attended
some fifty workers from various coun-
ties being present.
Following a call otto order by the
Chairman, associated director of Civil

the general situation, particularly in
Eastern Kentucky. Mr.. Thruston
brought forth sigh of relief from his
hearers when he indicated that very
shortly four or five units of twenty

CONSERVE YOUR COAL
PILE BY USING WOOD
Chairman Of County Fuel Committees
Say Burn All the Wood Possible
To Save Coal.

You have doubtless read with much
relief the announcement of our Fuel
Director, DR.. Garfield, that there are
abundant supplies Of coal in the coun-
try and that we need fear no recur-
renee of the hardships of last winter.
You will however notice that he calls
upon us all to relax none Of our pres
ent vigilance now that the anxiety for
our personal comfort is allayed, War
requirements call for an over increas-
ing supply of Coal and this supply
can only be obtained by continue
ton of our sacrifices.
Coal in huge quantities can be saved
by the use of wood as fuel.
OF course this latter is difficult to
obtain as the few men left upon the
farms are wholly occupied with the
task of feeding those who fight or
make munitions, but now that the
must be days of comparative leisure.
There will at least be days when the
ground is too wet to break for future
crops and on those days wood can be
cut for fuel. Let this wood be burned
in the daylight hours and the coal be
saved to hold the fires at night
There are portable saws in almost
every neighborhood which can we'll be
utilized with such cooperation as eX-
lists among farmers at threshing time.
Cooperation will secure fuel for the
needs of community buildings, such as
schools and churches. The wood once
cut, trust the neighborhood children
to get 1t in.
This Kentucky office has a strong
prediction for evangelization in the
churches and in the schools. There
the disingenuousness of a movement
is not apt to be questioned and the
gospel there engineered will be kept
alive in the home. Won't you please
try and inaugurate in your county a
movement to increase our coal sup
plies by substituting wood as fuel,
asking each community to foster its
development. Coming down to plain
facts this substitution means an av-
erage saving in each precinct of a
thousand tons of coal, ten thousand in
a county and at least a million in the
cto 70 har
one of which to be proud.
With other publications we are
sending you a pamphlet published last
summer Its admonitions, however
are still applicable and 1t contains
material which will prove valuable in
acquainting your people with another
opportunity of aiding in the war
1t is a direct appeal to the further
patriotism of the farmers who have
These will not fail to respond now
when their attention is called to the
fact that by a little more sacrifice OF
their labor and time they will most
materially aid in Fastening the sue
cessful end of the greatest of strug-
giles, a struggle for ideals so typically
American that unfolding it becomes
our burden beyond other Nations
Possibly there are sons from your
county, cover There" who will be
the sooner returned by the "Substitu-
ton of Wood for Coal" Even the lap
of tree has fuel value.
Yours For the Conservation of
Fuel"

Conservation, Federal Fuel Ad-
ministration Kentucky.

TODAY'S ELECTION

Because of the influenza and the
war taking SO many OF the voting ele-
ment and the expected surrender of
Germany and the big noise in France,
Belgium, Germany, Russia, Austria,
Italy, etc. and numerous other
causes, this city experienced the most
subdued election ever held here or
hereabouts. Hardly anyone was no

had 1t not been so extensively adver-
tised the past few days one would
have thought the election had been
postponed. The result OF the voting
will be in tomorrow's extra edition.

ENGLISH MAY BE
 PEACE TONGUE
CBy Review Leased Wire)

PARIS, Nov. 27.-(By the Associat- ed Press. 1.-The question of conduct ing the proceedings of the peace con gress in English is being discussed, with some prospect that this innova- ton will be brought about If it IS. il will be the first great international congress with English as the official language, as French has long been recognized as the medium of diplo- macy. For practical reasons, it is said the use of the English language would be more convenient to a larger number Of the delegates than French, for during the sessions of the inter- allied conference all but two of the delegates spoke English. whereas a considerable number did not speak French and were unable to under stand the proceedings when French was used.
 The printed record Of the daily pro ceedings will be in both French and English for the convenience of all, and, in addition, several of the gov ernments probably will have their publications, dealing with the develop ments.
 Economic questions are coming prominently to the front in connec- tion with the presence of Herbert C.. Hoover. the American food admins trator, who was joined today by Ed ward N Hurley, chairman of the ship ping board. They conferred lengthily this afternoon at Colonel Houses res idenee on food distribution and ton mage.
 France needs a considerable amount of tonnage for the rehabilitation of her merchant shipping lost during the war and through enforced inactivity of her shipyards during the war. One plan is a governmental project involv- ing the expenditure of approximately a billion francs.
 There has been considerable dis cussion also concerning the amount of tonnage likely to come from the United States, following Captain Tar dieu's statement recently that he had 100,OOO tons. The presence of Mir. Hurley is giving an opportunity to go over these and other shipping ques- tions.

THIS IS A REAL
 THANKSGIVING
By Review Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON. Nov. 27-With the declaration of President Wilson that this year we have special and moving cause to be grateful and to rejoice in mind, the American people tomor- row in their annual observance of Thanksgiving day will give evidence of a deep sense of gratitude for the victories of the nations army and navy and a feeling of joy that the war has ended
 Many communities in the absence of an officially designated Victory day" will combine that celebration tomorrow with Thanksgiving day.
 President Wilson and Mrs. Wilson will attend church services in the morning. Only the immediately fam fly will be at the white house for din ner and the menu has been arranged in accord with food conservation re- quests.
 The president and members of the cabinet have been invited to attend services at the Metropolitan Metho- dist church. Envoys of a number of foreign nations and of practically all the South American countries will at- tend the annual pan-American mass at St. Patrick's church.
 Preparations have been in progress for several weeks to make the day a memorable one for the men in the training camps in this country, those overseas and those in the navy.
 In a Thanksgiving message to the nation. issued tonight, Secretary Baker said:
 America can rejoice and give thanks because she has been able to demonstrate the solid character of her people, the inspiring quality of her instructions, and the capacity of the republic for sacrifice in the in terest of high ideals. We give thanks this year as a united nation, as a people who have abated all difficult ties of lineage, language and creed in order that we may express effectively and as one our common ibelief in the virtues Of democracy"

 GERMAN SCHOLAR

LONDON, Nov 27 British wire less service) The Archbishop of Canterbury. in replying tS a lnesssge from Professor Deissmann of Berlin university. transmitted by Archbishop Soderbiom Of Cpsala. imploring mer- ciful treatment at the peace confer ence "in the name of Christianity, says:
 Professor Deissmann's statement, as to the present situation. is not one which l can accept as correct. He speaks of the European situation as though all that is needed on the part of Christian circles in the belligerent nations is mutual forgiveness and conciliation. in order to fight in uni son against the terrible consequences of the war and to serve the moral i'm provement of the nations and of man kind
 The archbishop calls attention to the fact that on September 2. 1915. he sent a letter to Professor Deiss- mann, pointing out these essential matters, but received no reply, except a verbal acknowledgement. and con tinues:
 We have fought without hatred and, so far as possible, without pas sion. and now that victory crowns the cause for which we fought, we de- sire to be equally free from hatred and passion in the course We follow as victors.
 But we cannot forget the terrible crime wrought against humanity and civilization. when this stupendous war, with its irreparabie agony and cruel ty, was let loose in Europe. Nor can we possibly ignore the savagery which the German high command displayed in carrying on the war. Outrages in Belgium in the early months, and. indeed. ever since; the character of the devastation wrought in France. including the inhuman deportation of innocent civilians; the submarine warfare against passenger ships, like the Lusitania, and the rejoicing which ensped in Germany; the Unspeakable cruelties exercised on defenseless prisoners down to the very end. in cluding even the last few weeks-all these things compel the authorities of the allied powers to take security against a repetition of such crime.
