LONDON is STIRRED
BY FUEL SAVING
New Gas and Electricity ReguIa.
tons Fall Heavily on
EIOuSohoIderS.

The regulations regarding the re-
duction of the use Of gas and cleo
sriciy have caused considerable feel
ing in London among households as
ing these supplies for Lighting and
cooking purposes The fleet Of the
order has been TO place the careful
person who has kept down her bills
in more difficult position tLan her
neishbor who has been .wasteful.
Many families in view Of the coal
cati0ning scheme have Installed gas or
electricity for heating and warming
purposes and they now find that un.
der the conditions Of the order these
appliances viii be Insufficient for their
needs.
The object Of the order was stated
as being the saving OF coal, but the
effect, especially in the mlddle-clas2
homes, viii be to rely more on the
coal fire for cooking and heating pur-
poses than the other means, and rs q
result more coal will be burned.
The London traffic problem was
never in even a fair way of solution
until the American experts came over
and took the matter in hand soma
years ago. Bat they succeeded in so
ing more than solving the problem OF
rapid transit-they taught the people
to use their systems, and the passen-
ger traffic of London has grown enor,
mously in consequence.
Today experts are needed more
than ever as the situation of London
traffic under the present condition goes
from bad to worse. The commanders
ing by the military authorities has re-
duced the supply of motor omnibuses
to mere dribble, while the saving of
coal and electricity has caused the
withdrawal of many of the surface
cars and the subway trains.
In consequence every vehicle is
crowded, and to attempt to board
either train or car or bus during the
rush hours is only a possibility for the
athlete.

MAY USE
BEEF NOW
is ORDER
Restricted Consumption Of Beef Partially
Raised; Allowed at 0ne Meal a Day;
Kick on Short Weights

Restrictions ON the use of beef
have been partially raised and due
to the ready response of people ev-
erywhere to meat schedules of the
federal food administration, any kind
of beer may now be served at one
meal each day, according to advice
received by c. M. Hollingsworth,
county food administrator from the
state food administration office this
morning. Mr. Hoover, in a recent
communication with all state head
quarters, states that he has been able
to purchase substantial amount
of staple meat for export and as a
result OF this the serving of only
four meals during the week and a
particular kind at each meal is no
longer binding. Until further notice,
any kind Of beef may be served once
daily.
In an attempt to make the regu-s
tion uniform the five states which
make up the seventh food zone of the
United States, Oklahoma, Kansas, Ne
braska, Iowa, and Missouri, have de-
termined on investigation that mas
much as the majority of ,eating
houses prefer to serve beef at the
noon meal, this viii be set as the
standard time The ruling of the
food administration yesterday pro-
vides that beef in any form may be
served from II a. m. until p. m. ON
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednes-
day, Thursday and Friday. On Sat
urday it may be served from p. m.
until midnight.
The use of veal is not restricted.
The governments plan for conserving
beef is but a temporal one and not
intended to get more cattle.
Mr.. HoUingsworth reported NUM-
erous complaints from housewives of
the city who especially object to
shortage in potato weights. In inany
cases only thirteen pounds of pota-
toes have been sold for peck,
whereas fifteen should be given the
reports state. Steps will be taken
to remedy this condition, the county
administration has promised. The
difficulty of ice shortage will also
be taken up, Mr.. Hollingsworth stated
today.

Yankee KILLS SELF
TO Save COMPANIONS
Picks Up Bomb in Dugout, Makes
Barrier Of Body and Awaits
Explosion.

Somewhere in France there are four
American soldiers who owe their lives
to the courage and sacrifice of COM
panion, vino deliberately killed himself
in order that they might live. The
story Of the soldiers bravery has been
brought back to America by an ord
nance officer who had been at the
front.
The soldier had been on duty at an
outpost Strengthening the pins in hand
grenades. After hoing relieved he re-
turned to his dugout, where three Of
his pals were sleeping. The fourth lay
awake on bunk. The returning sol
der had scarcely entered the dugout
whena bomb fell out of his coat
pocket, and, as it fell the Strengthened
safety pin slipped out. The soldier
realized that within five seconds an ex-
plosion would probably kill every man
in the dugout.
He had time to get through the door
and leave his companions to their
death. Just what passed through the
soldiers mind in the next two or three
seconds no man can ever tell. he
reached a decision quickly. The brave
soldier picked up the grenade, crept
into corner of the dugout, made a
barrier out of his body and was In
stantly killed when the bomb exploded
His pals escaped injury.

Reports Of Annual School Meetings in
Grady County Show Best Records
Ever Made Here
ALL LEVIES CARRY
WITHOUT OPPOSITION
Teachers Salaries Boosted; School Term
Heightened; Average Term Z Months;
Sessions Well Attended

District reports Of annual school
meetings held in the county Tuesday
the last of which came into the office
of superintendent M. H. Sheppard
only yesterday afternoon show the
largest attendance and highest school
interest recorded in the history Of
education in Grady county, accord
ing to Mr. Sheppard's statement to-
day. All districts have cleared upon
their annual extra levy and the new
school year will start under the most
favorable conditions, the superintend-
ent believes.
Attendance reports made on the
meetings show record numbers pres
ent everywhere this year. In mum
erous cases where only the directors
had been present in the previous
years, from forty to seventy-five pa
irons were on hand to vote on the
business Of the district. Pride in the
schools of Grady county has been
increased by war conditions, Mr.
Sheppard is convinced.
One of the most remarkable fea-
lures of the 1918 county school meet
ings is the fact that not vote was
cast against the additional school
maintenance levy in any instance. In
districts where dissention and differ
ences as to the adyisability of making
the additional levies had been ex-
pected, old obiectors were the
staunchest supporters, rural directors
told the county superintendent Fri
day.
The length of school terms was in
creased in practically every place as
county school autho dies had expect
ed In only two places were six
month schools agreed upon and the
directors of one of these reported to
Mr.. Sheppard yesterday that a re-
co,.nt of votes had been taken and a
seven month term had carried The
average length of school for mex
year will be seven months. Cotton
picking plans for this fall figured
largely in causing terms to begin
early. In most districts school will
be opened in August and in some
as early as July.
The county superintendent was
more than pleased with the results of
meetings over the county. THE meet
ings went through with no friction
whatever which is a thing that never
happened before. Without a doubt
it was the best school day ever held
in Grady county and the new year
was started off right" said Mr.. Shep-
pard. 4, 81
