something on him.
Oh. it was a hard thing that God
asked of Joseph. but God had a rea-

God asks some hard things, will
admit, but God never asks anything
unreasonable. Never. 1t was a hard
thing that God asked Of Moses. to
take that great horde of half civilized
people, of Jews who had been for
40 years in Egyptian bondage, and
lead them to the promised land. They
grumbled and growRd. and they drove
him almost to distraction. One day
Me got so mad he pulled out his rod
and walked up to that stone and he
said, "Oh, Jesus, shall we bring water
out of this rock?"
God said. Come here. Moses. come
here"
He took him up on the mountain
and he said. DO you see that coun-
try?"
1T is great. Lord. What is it?''
THAT is the Promised Land"
Where we are going?"
mo. Not where you are going.
You can't do it. You forgot that the
rock-God Almighty was trying to
teach these people was his idol" They
had been worshipping idols and had
been giving Moses the credit for his
power.
1t was a hard thing that God ask
ed Moses to do. but He had a reason.
And Moses understands tonight. He
is satisfied.
II was a hard thing that God ask
ed OF Job; to be covered with boils
from head to foot and his wife said.
Curse God" but did he? No. He
said. Though he slay me yet will I
trust him."
Oh. God had a reason, and Job
understands tonight, and is satisfied.
VIII admit God asks some things
that are hard but God has a reason.
II was hard thing that God asked
OF Paul. To be cursed, beaten and
at last beheaded, but God had a rea-
son. Paul understands, and he is
satisfied.
1t was a hard thing that God said
to his only begotten Son. "Son, 20
down, be born of the Virgin Mary,
suffer under Pontius PLATE, be cru
cifier. dead and buried"
But he walked the earth and he
was spit upon, damned, stoned and
called a wine-bibber and a glutton,
And they treated him with all the
brutality that hearts inspired by the
Devil could do and then they nailed
him on the cross and he cried, 1T is
finished"
He burst through the gates into
the city. Oh, Christ is risen.
Jusus Crist understood that God had
a reason for this. and he was satis-
fed.

Rather than allow their sales girls to
work in a cold storeroom, S. Kann

Monday, regardless OF what action
other merchants may take, unless the
order of the Fuel Administrator is so
modified that busines can be conducted

MANAGERS OF LOCAL
THEATERS HOPEFUL
Will Support Administration. but
Look for Modification of Order.

With no tinge of slackerism In
their motives theatrical owners
apd managers in the city last night
held varied opinions as to the most
practical and logical methods
through which they could give un-
qualified support to Fuel Admin
istrator Garfields edict.
Plans unfolded by the interested
theatrical men showed, that they
bad spent considerable time and
thought on the problem although
when all their opinions were pooled
1t was found there were three sep
arate and concrete solutions which
stood above all else.
First: That the theaters should
be closed on Monday and, there
after as the order promulgates.
Second: That the theaters, where
1t 10 possible for them to main
tain the permitted % degrees may
as well seek what patronage they
can.
Third-That the theaters should con-
tinue as IL nothing had happened in
the hope that some modification will
be allowed before January q or until
more personal notice is given by the
Fuel Administration than the general
order published in newspapers.
Keith's Selling Tickets.
r. S. Robbins. manager OF keith's
Theater. told of a plan last night
which he said was yesterday present
ed to President Wilson whereby an
theaters would be exempted IN order
that they might provide necessary
amusement for the throngs who, on
this day. will find themselves with
nothing to do. In this plan some other
day would be set aside on which the
theaters might make their sacrifices.
He said that his theater was selling
tickets for Monday performances.
A. J. Brylawski. 81 the Cosmos
Theater, announced that the Cosmos
would be closed Monday as would the
other theaters in their chain. Evil
dence of the patriotic spirit with
which the theatrical managers are
imbued is contained in their decision
to see that none of their employees
lose a cent of their wages through
their dark house" Mondays. In or
der to offset the Monday lulls and in
order to accommodate their patrons
this management has decided to hold
continuous performances on Tuesdays
and Wednesdays as they already do
on Saturdays and Sundays.
Harry Jarboe, manager Of the Gay
ETY. Theater, stated that If there was
| any way in which he could keep his
theater and satisfy the Fuel Admins
| traitor and his patrons he would do it.
Above all of these plans, however.
there prevailed a disposition of eager
| contemplation of some further move
| on the part of Fuel Administrator
Garfield which they expected today.

WAR SUCCESS
WAS MENACED
SAYS DANIELS
Secretary Declares Conges-
ton Was Such That Fuel
Order Imperative.

There's no use making a gun IL
yon can't get it to the battle" said
Secretary Daniels, in discussing the
problem the coal order is aimed to
solve.
THE government wants industries
to stop until the land and water
transportation has caught up" he
said. 1.-THE congestion on the sea-
board is such that the success Of the
United States part in the war Is
gravely menaced. No one was more
concerned over the enforcement Of the
new order than was Secretary Nc
Adoo."
1t is learned that literally hundreds
of ships are tied up In Atlantic ports.
A ten-mile belt of delayed freight
fringes the shores of the harbors In
which these ships lie.
1t is to this state of affairs to which
Secretary Daniels refers when ne
speaks of the desperate situation"
Could Not Make Distinction.
The enforced holidays for all indus
tries was determined upon, in the
view of the Secretary of the Navy,
because of the extreme difficulty o.
determining what are and what are
not essential processes at this time.
But IL the present order Is not sue
cessful the more difficult course will
be pursued. A list of essential and
nonessential industries will be pre-
pared and the latter will be driven
out of business perhaps for the whole
term of the war.
What is the desperate situation to
which you refer?" Secretary Daniels
was asked.
Congestion" he replied. "Conges-
tion must be cleared up"
do you mean congestion on the
railroads or the lack Of ships?" he
was asked.
1T Is a congestion that is checking
the movement of SUPPLIES to Europe.
he replied THE supplies must be got
over. There's no use making a gun
IL you can't get 1t to the battle-ground"
In accordance with this statement OF
the difficulty the Navy Department
will ask for few exceptions from the
order for its work.
It is an open secret that the larmy
is not nearly as well off. Secretary
Baker says the department will ac-
cept 1t almost without exception.
Baker I'm Conference.
Mr.. Baker was In conference with a
woman visitor interested in soldier
welfare work this afternoon. She piled
her knitting needles on a bright yell
low sweater as she talked to the
Secretary.
Suddenly an aide rushed into his Of
flee, the woman caller was ushered
out and Secretary Baker with an arm
full OF papers hurried TO the White
House. When he had been with the
President for nearly half an hour he
consented TO talk.
'I have asked for the exemption OF
certain Immediately necessary sup
plies from the operation of the Goa
order" he said. 1.-The other supple!
which are important. but which are
not Immediately needed, will have tc

rest of the country"

GOMPERS SAYS
LABOR LOYAL
TO U. S. ORDER
Head Of Federation Hope
full Industry Will Protect
Employees.

Labor will be the chief sufferer
from the Garfield fuel order, but
labor will stand loyalty by the gov
ernment. This Is the message issued
last night by Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent Of the American Federation, In
the following statement:
The shutting down of all Indus
tries for five continuous days Is only
warranted II based upon immediate
emergency, and have some doubt II
FIVE continuous days Is the best meas
ure. 1t certainly seems a very radl-
cal measure to meet the problems Of
transportation.
II am in receipt of a large number
of telegraphic protests from workers
in several parts Of the country, de-
cIaring that the effect. of the orders
will throw their men out of employ
ment; that due to the high cost Of
living they have been unable to lay
anything aside. and that their suf-
fering during this period will be very
great
In addition to this, I am strongly
Of the opinion that to place the in
dustry upon an eight-hour basic
workday at least during the war and
as a war measure would have been a
much wiser and more practical course
than the creation of legal holidays,
which will mean holidays from Sat
urday afternoon until Tuesday morn
ing.
workers Are Loyal
The workers-the masses Of the
people-will be the greatest sufferers
from this new order. Others have
been or will be able to hoard their
needs and supplies. OF course, the
working people of America will main
tain their loyal stand despite their
suffering and sacrifices which they
may be called upon to bear; and yet
everything must be done to see that
they are not made to suffer unneces-
sarily.
II have Just received a letter from
the executive secretary OF DR.. Gar
field, the head of the United States
Fuel Administration, in which he
says:
e In connection with the order clos
ing down industry for five days and
subsequent Mondays, l am issuing an
appeal to industries concerned, ask
ing them not to allow labor to suffer
by reason Of the shutdown; that this
is a war measure which / confidently
expect industry will execute without
shifting the burden to labor
Il prayerfully hope that our cap
tains of industry and business men
will show their patriotism by heed
ing Dr.. Garfield's appeal. 1t would
be most unwise did they not heed it.

The Senate Committee Puts
Garfield on Grill for
Latest Order.

DR.. Garfield reached the Capitol
about y. m, and went to the Manu-
factures Committee room.
Senator Reed conducted the cross-ex-
animation,
1t soon developed that the order Is
sued Wednesday night was brief
OF an enlarged document. The changes
made were: That coal SHOULD be
shipped hom the mines Just as usual.
even though 1t was not used. and that
in the preference list no class should
have actual preference over the other.
Some Exceptions Made.
Are there any exceptions to the
factories which will be closed for the
five days?" asked Senator Reed.
YES" said the Fuel Administrator,
but they are not named in the order.
Certain things must 80 on. These
would constitute sort of reserve list.
I reserve the right to include in that
list anything deemed necessary for the
war work"
What are these industries?'
Il asked the papers last night not TO
dwell on that point because a deluge
Of requests would have followed. Prac-
tically every factory in the country
has some government work. But ships
and airplane manufacture, for in
stance. must go on uninterrupted. IL,
however, this had been written in the
order, hundreds, Of requests would
have been made from other indus
tries"
WELL" insisted Senator Reed. you
will have to notify the exen/ed fac
tories or they will close down tomor-
row."
''They will be notified y>teiegraph

However, three minutes after they
receive the kilograms, the fact will be
known. / can't see why they are not

Reed.
GARFIELD Defends Order.

piled the fuel director. THE Secre-
taries of War and the Navy will
furnish me lists Of these industries.

those men would have been flooded

In answer to Senator Reeds in
Quiry as to the actual cause for issu-
ing the order, DR.. Garfield said:
THE lack of coal for domestic con-
sumers, including those who use elec-
tricty and gas supplied by public
utilities. is one thing. The scarcity is
not due to lack of production but be-
cause the transportation condition ha IS

EASTERN IDEA
GAVE DIVISION
ITS new NAME
Plan to Discourage "Wild
West" Work at Camp
Lewis Depot.

Camp Lewis, Tacoma, Wash. April
27.-Preservation of a popular east
ern idea, rather than any effort at de-
scription is responsible for naming OF
the Wild West division of the United
States national army. The wild and
woody idea which is the general con-
ception of the cowboy is discouraged
at the remount depot of the Ninety
first division. probably the largest re-
mount depot in the United States and
undoubtedly operated-and success
fully, too-under the most adverse
weather conditions for handling great
numbers of horses.
1T is a hard matter to get into the
remount depot. Captain j. w. Jack
son. in charge of the depot, has a list
of 100 men. all experienced cowboys,
and a sheaf Of letters each containing
applications for enlistment. And a
great portion Of these men in all
probability will be rejected.
The wild west circus rider and the
fellow who boasts of his ability to
ride anything from a pinto to a steer,
are not the sort Of men Captain jack
son is seeking to train the thousands
of horses and mules so that they will
be of some service to the army.
Whenever a man applies for enlist
ment in Captain Jackson's organiZa-
ton, he must furnish references not
only rs to ability as a horseman, but
as to character as well. Many men
here came only after recommended
tions from the governor of their state
and numerous public officials and in
fluential men. Here are a number of
instances of the sort Of men Captain
jackson commands: !. -
Sergeant Earl Krantz, in charge of
the feeding of animals, was at one
time instructor in Inimal hustAndry
at the University of Washington and
was serving in a similar capacity at
the University of Utah when he re-
signed a $4,000 job and came here to
work for Uncle Sam at $50 a month.
Private Lewis, one Of the best rid
ers in the depot, was instructor in a
Seattle riding academy and left that
position to enter the army.s He for
merly was a cowboy but he is equally
at home in a dress suit or in sombrero
and chaps.
Private "Buckless" Winning is a
famous Australian rider and relay
racer.
Mickey Millerick is a former cow
boy and for three ear did wild west
stunts on horseback for the movies in
California before he enlisted.
Sergeant Marmon spent two years
in medical school after spending
years on his fathers ranch near
VOLTS Point. Montana, and now is in
charge of handling the hay for 2 SOC
head of horses and mules.
Sergeant Jack Harris gave up; a
law practice at Miles City, Montana
to enter service in the remount depot
where his experience on his fathers
ranch near there would help win the
war.
Andrew Dopee. for six years in the
Belgian army as architectural engi.
neer and who designed many build.
ings at San Francisc, designed the
club house of the remount depot anG
planned the decorations which have
made it n Of the most attractive
rooms for the men in camp.

his comrades as Bear Tracks," wa.
