THE HUT OF THIRTY LAMPS

How Professor John c. Granbery.
OF Southwestern University, Texas.
obtained coaloil to heat his y. NJ.
G. a. hut in France sounds like a
Mark Twain yarn. With no wood
available, he hit upon the plan Of
lighting a number Of lamps to heat
| his hunt. but had no kerosene, and
| though he was entitled to #, no card
/ for obtaining il at the village supply
station. but he managed to solve the
problem.
Here is the story as told by Chaun-
coy p. Hubert, the writer:
Back in America, Y. NJ. c. 4. Sec
r"tary John c. Granbery is professor
Of cconomis and sociology in South
western University, Georgetown, Tex.

/ bad storm flooded his hut he shout
dcrcd his pick and with the fatigue
squad that had been detailed did his
share, though it was not expected Of
him.
Cant get any wood" Granbcry ex-
planned when he saw me look at the
| cold stove. They are very short in
[ the village and the trains are not
/ bringing any more. That Is the rea-
son for the thirty lamps. They act
( like small stoves.
Il had a funny time getting kero-
scno. You see, they only give II out

/ petrol card. didn't have one. ana
couldn't get one at once, so | asked
| m" man II he wouldn't sell me an
empty petrol drum. He couldn't see
the harm in that and gave the large
one you're sitting on. first turning
I IT over to sec that | was not getting
away with n few illegal drops. put
the can on my old team the next day
and drove up 10 Y. That's eight
miles away and the nearest big center
When | presented my can the man
filled it without question and | made
him give II to me at the military rate
too. The village people wondered
where | got the oil. and the officers
came around to borrow some for their
breakfast lamps and oilstovcs."
Just then the men began to straggic
in from supper.
Prof. Granhory tore open package
OF goods and sold twenty articles to

I'm most huts they limit n mans

/ scratched the bald spot on his head.
"Wcll, you see, it Is a bit different
/ in this case. That man IS a corporal

mon sleep. They gave him their
money and he buys their stuff for
/ them.
Fifteen of them never came back
/ from their ton days at the front. The
other fifteen are feeling a bit low, and
