Children Encourage
-. Coal Production

Greonsburg. Pa. Oct. 5.-Sixty
thousand Westmoreland county school
children are to be enrolled in the coal
production campaign. Every boy
and girl in the public and parochial
schools or the district were today
urged by teachers to use their influ-
ence to keep every miner at work six
days each week, and to appeal to their
fathers, brothers and friends to pro-
duce a greater coal tonnage.
Sixteen hundred public school teach
ers today received request from Rob-
ert C. Shaw, county superintendent.
asking them to urge the cause of coal
production in the schools. Similar
letters went to parochial school teach
ers from Fathere Gilbert In every
school In the county an appeal from
James S. Amend. district production
manager. was read to the children
Each child was asked to take home
the appeal for increased production
and tomorrow will be asked the result
of his appeal. Then will come daily
production talks by the teachers.
These appeals to the children will
be made throughout the school year.
while you cannot go to the trench
es. you can do something right here
at home to help win the war;" Amend
said in his appeal to the children.
your government has asked every
miner in the United States to use his
pick as a weapon to defeat the Kaiser.
Every ton of coal means more soldiers
to France to fight for a free world.
Every ton OF coal means that your
brothers and fathers and friends who
are fighting over there will keep warm
and be properly fed this winter. 1t
means clothing, fuel and ammunition
for the guns.
III the children of Westmoreland
county do their duty in this war. they
will help defeat the German rule that
has meant suffering and Sorrow to
hundreds of thousands of children in
Europe. II you-fail, the big brothers.
the cousins aud fathers who are fight
ing over there must wait for food that
doesn't come-fo0d that is delayed be-
cause there is no coal for the ships.
1t means your brothers and friends in
the American army must retreat-a
word the American soldier has never
learned-and all because there was no
coal for the munition plants.
"When you go hope tonight ask
daddy to dig little more coal tomor-
row, to work little harder-for you
and for America. Ask your brothers
and friends to work harder, too. Ask
them not to stay away from the mines
because idIeness today means suf-
fering for the boys and girls o..
France and Belgium and Italy tomor-
row. Talk about 1t at supper-in a
goodnight kiss-and at breakfast. Ask
mamma to help. too. 1t is your
chance to feht--in an appeal for coal
more coal. Don't stop until the
war is won"

Pain Gives Warning.

The nervous system is our life-sav.

aches or quivers in pain 1t is a bless
Ing In disguise. The first bit of tooth
ache warns you that disease germs are
attacking its structure. An ache in the
head is notice that something is wrong
somewhere and not always is it in the
head itself. Pain is not natures meth

warning. When you feel pain don't
merely try to allay it, seek out its real

PAYING FOR GOOD HIGHWAYS
Improved Roads Have Always Been
Necessary Adjunct to State,
Community and Individual.

Good highways are and have always
been a necessary adjunct to the well
fare of the state, community and indi-
vidual. The argument, "Good roads
cost lots Of money" may in reality be
true when figured In dollars and miles,
but is incorrect when considered in
reality. Good roads must be paid for,
but they are paid for whether they are
built or not. The wear and breakage
on teams, harness and vehicles, and
the increased cost of hauling on poor
roads is costing the grower far more
than the price Of building and keeping
In repair the very best roads. He is
actually paying for the roads without
getting them; and, besides, is put to
much Inconvenience and worry.
In short, good roads cost nothing.

He told them, then, something of his
plan, which was very simple. He had
arranged for special course at the
seminary in Chicago, and then would
enter the ministry like any other young
man starting upon his lifework. I'm

"I'll have to go around AID preach I'M

He talked frankly, even with en-

Gus disappointment that Carol sat
there silent, her eyes upon the hands
in her lap. Once or twice she lifted
them swiftly to his face, and lowered
them instantly again. Only he noticed
when they were raised, that they were
unusually deep, and that something lay
within shining brightly, like the reflec-
ton Of star In clear dark pool Of
water.
II must 60 now" he said, II must

Carols hand was the first placed in
his, and she murmured an inaudible
word of farewell, her eyes downcast,
and turned quickly away. "Don't let
them wait for me-" she whispered to
Lark, and then she disappeared.
The professor turned away from the
hospitable door very much depressed.
He shook his head impatiently and
thrust his hands deep into his pockets
like troubled boy. Halfway down
the board walk he stopped, and
smiled. Carol was standing among the
| rose bushes, tall and slim in the cloudy
moonlight, waiting for him. She held
out her hand with friendly smile.
Il came to take you a piece, if You

hand into the curve of his arm. II was

Aunt Grace nodded, with warmly
approving smile.

Carol gazed at her family despairing-

''It was loud CALL" he said. And he
looked at her curiously, for Of all the

unenthusiastic.

a Clear Call.
The tinkle OF the teleDhone disturbed
the family as they were at dinner, and
Connie, who sat nearest, rose to an
swer the summons, while Carol, at her
corner of the table struck a tragic at

"Yes-any of his members, you

"Well," Connie said calmly, '.if

edly.
Eyes, for the paper. How they looked,
what they said, how 1t happened
everything. We want to scoop on it."
"But I don't think they-would want

"Oh probably not, but people want
to know about it. Don't you remember
what / told you? The press is pow
erful taskmaster. He asks hard duties
of us, but we must obey. We've got
to give the people what they want.
There's reporter down from Burling-
ton already, but he couldn't get any
thing out of them. We've got clear
scoop on it."
Lark glanced fearfully over her
shoulder. A huge menacing shadow
lowered black behind her. The press !
She shuddered again.
81 can't write it up" she faltered.
Mrs. Daly-she- Oh, held her in
my arms, Mr.. Raider, and kissed her,
and we cried all morning. and / can't

Nonsense, now, Lark" he said, "be
sensible. You needn't give all the sob
part. pll touch it up for you. Just
write out what you saw, and what they
said, and I'll do the rest. Run along
now. Be sensible"
Lark glanced over her shoulder
again. The press seemed tremendous
ly big, leering at her, threatening her.
Lark gasped, sobbingly.
Then she sat down at Mr.. Raiders
resk, and drew pad of paper toward
her. For five minutes she sat immov-
able, body tense, face stern, breathless,
rigid. Mr.. Raider after one curious,
satisfied glance, slipped out and closed
the door softly after him. He felt he
could trust to the newspaper instinct
to get that story out of her.
Finally Lark, despairingly, clutched
ID pencil and wrote:
Terrible Tragedy Of the Early
Morning.
DAY Family Crushed With Sorrow.
Her mind passed rapidly back over
the story she had heard, the fathers
occasional wild bursts of temper, the
pitiful efforts of the family to keep his
weakness hidden, the insignificant al
tercation at the breakfast table, the
cry of the startled baby. and then the
sudden ungovernable fury that dashed
