operate the dampcrs to control it prop erly. The draft of the chimney is much diminished when by opening the check -damper cold air is allowed to flow directly into the chimney.
 This year the war requires at least eighty million more tons of coal than were taken from the earth last year. Mine operators and miners speeding their work but cannot supply all the extra, tons needed. There is g. limit to production because there is a limit to labor and to transportation. Many million tons of the added war require ments must be saved in the homes apartment houses, hotels, churches schools and stores. American house. holders must answer the coal chal- lenge.
 Many householders will say that they can save no more fuel; that they used last year the least possible amount to keep their families in health and comfort. The United States Fuel Administration states that it can make family more comfortable with less fuel, if the head of the house will op- crate his heater and range properly.

RED CROSS NOTES

| and that should include the entire nation--its importance is sufficient excuse for another reminder. Section of the Act of Congress incorpora- ting the American National Red Cross should be carefully noted by work CTS:
 That from and after the passage of this act it shall be unlawful for any person within the jurisdiction of the United States to falsely and fradulentlv hold himself out as, or represent or pretend himself to be 8 mem Der of or an agent for the Amer ican National Red Cross, for the pur- pose of soliciting, collecting, or re- ceiving money or material or for any person to wear or to display the sign of the Red Cross or any insignia col orded in imitation thereof for the fradulent purpose of inducing the be- lief that he is 2. member of, or an agent for, the Am erican National Red Cross. Nor shall 1t be lawful for any person or corporation, other than the Red Cross of America, not now law fully entitled to use the sign of the Red Cross, hereafter to use such sign or any insignia colored in imitation thereof for the purpose of trade or as an advertisement to induce the sale of any article whatsoever.

HELP TO SAVE COAL
How to Run Household Heaters.

How to get more heat out of your coal than the chimney does, is more important than any other branch O. household economy. Tn the average home 25 per cent of the coal used can be saved Most of this saving can be accomplished by Proper Damper Con- trol G. l.. Larson. of the University of Wisconsin, in an interesting pam phlet on fuel conservation, places the possible percentage of saving much higher. He says:
 Tests have shown that from 10 to 50 per cent, on the average, of the heating value of the coal is usefully employed in heating 8 house or build ing. Under conditions of proper in stallation and frequent and careful at tention, 50 to 60 per cent of the heat ing value may be coverted into useful heat, while under unfavorable condi- tions only 5 per cent, or even less, Of the heat value of the coal is utilized
 There is no more important general rule than the one emphasized by L. r. Breckenridge of the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University, to this ef- feet:
 The flow of air through the fuel makes it burn. Learn to control it. Try to visualize this flow of air through the fuel and you will easily learn how to

HARLAN IN "A MANS MAN ''

An announcement has just been made by the Lyceum theater that Kenneth Harlan. who first made 3 a name for himself at this theater, will return in 9 super drama called "A Mans Man." Tn this picture he will assist I. Warren Kerrigan, whose screen popularity is national. It will be a delight for theatergoers to see Harlan here, and they will no doubt recall when he was leading man at the Lyceum. No better person could have been selected to assist J. Warren IEcrrigan in his super drama.
 The main thing about this picture is the unusual story if unfOlds, deal ing with a man who hated his enemies and loved his friends. He is savage in his anger, follows his conscience for justice regardless of man-made law, and to his mother has always remained her good hoy who has nev- CT grown up. The scene of the story is in south America. and gives an unusual color to the picture. It will be shown Monday, Tuesday and Wed nesday.

F,vey Red Cross official and every Red Cross worker should make it his business to see that the name and in signia Of the Red Cross is not made use of by interruptions persons or by misguided enthusiasts for any adyan- tage. To preserve the integrity of the Red Cross should be the purpose of every citizen of the country. that the aims for which it. stands may suffer in no way
 Misdirected effort, even when in nocent in intent, may bring a measure equal in harm to activity prompted by evil design. When deliberate mis- use of the Red Cross name is noted. Immediate action should be taken, and no less certainly should the ef- fort be made to set straight those who even through the best of inten~ tions, are endangering in any way the work of the institution,
 Probably in no way IS the Red Cross more often harmed than in the use of it's name to induce patronage or to promote device, even though the object may be, in the mind of the offender, the benefit of the Red Cross itself. Tn these cases a grave danger lies in the opportunity thus afforded of furthering something that is dis tinctly not of aid to the institution The only safe method is to adhere strictly to ogniti0n of any trat- licking in the name of the Red Cross where any portion of the receipts is to be given over as profit CT reward to any other agency or lndiTldlsal whatsoever.
 Although the matter has been ire ouently brought to the attention or those interested in the Red Cross

"1 Don't Understand :"

Granted that" I returned prom pt- ly for he had pictured Lillian with camera like fidelity, nevertheless, she would move heaven and earth to avoid having such a question confront her"
 I stopped, a little breathless. as realized how he had tacitly admitted and I had accepted his participation in evil if not reasonable activities. I saw the same realization in the eyes he turned upon me, saw something else also, that for the moment there was no use in making any further appeal to his better nature. Beck less determination was written on his face. but I fancied. hoped, that I could also see distaste for the task he had set for himself, which I guessed he had nerved himself with potations to perform.
 Look here" he said roughly, there's no use our sparring around like this. We've got to come down to cases, you and I, or the buzz saw you've been monkeying with will cut you into bits, pronto.'
 T don't understand you." I parried. T suppose you have news of my father, or you wouldn't be here. That is what you wished to see me about, is it
 
 The thought of my father had been with me ever since MT. Underwood had telephoned. But my zeal in Lil- Hans sacrifice had made me delay an inquiry concerning him, I -ouldn't control the tremor in my voice, how ever, as l asked the question,
 "Ouly One Way"
 T have no news at all," he returned bluntly, (which is generally good news you know I told you before that he had escaped the peril outlined to you in the anonymous clippings. I've heard nothing since, but I am reason- ably sure that he's safe, though where, nobody knows.
 Then why--' I began, but was never allowed to finish the sentence.
 "Why?" he repeated, and I saw he was under the spell of some strong emotion. Why? Just because you've been helping Lii in this fool job she's ta ckled, and as 8 consequence have got two of the most fiendish articles that ever missed their way to the lower regions on your trail. One of them has an ancient grudge to feed fat, in the bargain. but I'll fry 'em both in their own grease before they harm you. You'll have to help me, though, and there's only one way you can do it.,
 And what is that ?'' I asked me chanically for my brain at his words had visualized Grace Draper and the man with the scared hand, and couldn't think coherently.
 He leaned forward, laid his hand upon my wrist. It was in no sense a caress, but, instead, a demand for close attention. His eyes, their black depths gleaming with excitement, held mine fascinated.
 "Theres something these devils want even more than to get even with you" he said slowly, i'm pressively And if you'll hand it over they'll not only let you alone forever after but your father also will have reason to throw a glad fit or two"
 What do you mean?" l challenged. schooling my voice to a puzzled into nation, although I guessed his mean ing only too well.
 Nothing much--tust hand over that paper inside this little toy," he ] rejoined, claspng his fingers strongly 1 upon the trick watch at my wrist.

What Harry Underwood Asked Of
 Hfadgc.

However else liquor may affect dull his perceptions. He caught my meaning almost as soon as I realized it myself and brick red flush spread over his face.
 "I suppose you pity me-" he said thickly, after 9 pause "as you would some dog or horse that gets caught in Quiclsand and sucked down. That's just about what happened to me. but I don't think I want your pity, Lady Fair, If it's all the same to you, I'd rather you'd hate me. I never could stand being Whined ovcr.'
 That he was being purposoIy brutal in his manner in order to hide his real feeling I was sure. Therefore, I ig- norcd his last words. harked back to the striking simiIe he had used

 Let's leave Lii out of it, if you please" he retorted. I'm not asking for any consideration from her, es~ pecially after this last six months"
 He hurried his last words together, avoiding my eyes as he spoke. I knew he was thinking of Grace Draper, and l was glad there was manlness enough left in him for shame.
 Besides" he went on, don't make any mistake. The old Spartans had nothing on Lii when it comes to her ideas of duty, She probably hasn't a bit of resentm ent toward me in her, but she'd haul me to a firing squad as quickly as she would any stranger If she thought it was up to her to do
