Thousands of Letters Received
by Garfield. Some Humorous.
Others Queer, but All Show
ing Evidence of a Sincere De-
sire to Help.

One thing the U. s. Fuel Admin
istration's efforts toward the econo-
n1ical use of fuel has brought out.
and that is that once the need for
saving was understood and appre-
ciated, the people rallied to its sup
port with heartiest will.
From every nook and Granny OF
the country letters are pouring in
on DR. Garfield with suggestions as
to how Iel may be saved. While
some O.. these suggestions have a
humorous t:nge, there. is back of
nearly all of them the evidence of
a sincere and earnest purpose to
help.
Some Of. the writer's have ends of
their own 10 serve, but that does
not matter much when the sugges-
tion is as naiveiy made as It is by a
youngster from Edentou, South
Carolina. who writes:
Dear Dr.. Garfeld-I like
your idears very much in
saving fuel at this time.
Is You could save more by
closing Edenron Graded
L Schools so l could go hunt
- ing.
Your frienc,
Master Clyde X. Copeland.
80 years old"
Equally queer may seem the Sug-
gestion of a patriot to DR.. Garfield
that much fuel might be saved by
doing away with ironing The
writer specifically mentioned the
articles of clothing that might just
as well be worn without ironing and
added:
II believe that many of
our people would be will
ing, even eager. TO make
this sacrifice of eye-pleas-
ure and which is not other
wise a deprivation. during
the further period Of war
stress
This seemed to be rather far
fetched. but when an eKpt in the
Fuel office put it down in figures,
and announced that failure TO iron
underclothes, handkerc hiefs. socks.
napkins, sheets and pillowcases in
volved the saving, throughout the
nation, of work on more than l.
600 900 600 pieces. il was to be
seen that the saving might be no
mean thing. The writer of the let
ter estimated the uon-ironing coal
saving at s1,000.0G0 week, but to
even the most optimistic these fig
ures seemed a trifle too cheering.
Then comes a letter from an en-
gineering expert of repute who
urges that the blowing of steam
whistles be prohibited so As to save
Imperial Valley press., 1918-08-15


of power, though steamship cap
tains realize full we'll what it means,
but the expert says:
when We realize that
thousands of factories
blowing their whistles six
or ten times a day about 20
seconds each time or from
two minutes up a day. say
SOC factories blow a con-
tinuous whistle for IL
hours. necesSitating an
average two-inch pipe, the
fuel TO produce this steam
sums up into thousands of
tons-a total loss"
Did you ever hear of the village
of Chisolm in the State of MinnesO-
ia? If not this will let you know
it is on the conservation map. By a
formal resolution Chisolm has de-
clared itself within the boundaries
of the terrific Y embraced in the
Fuel Conservation order and went
or. TO some pu Jose. with:
BE IT FURTHER RE-
SOLVED, That the next
ten Mondays shall be de-
clared holidays in the VIII
lase of Chisolm and that
the entire male population
of the village shall be as
sambled on those days for
the purpose of going into
the woods and gathering
fuel"
Which is a fine and patriotic ex-
emplification of faith in the text.
Belief without works is dead"
The careless, fuel-wasting cooks
of the nation have a warning
sounded Tor them by the Acting
Quartermaster-G of the
United States Army where they
are training cooks in the saving of
fuel.
The Acting Quartermaster- Cen
eTal says:

The result OF this special 81

O. course there have been many
sorts and conditions of pleas to the
L. s. Fuel Administrator to allow
the theaters to run and stay heated,
hut the uni ae plea comes from a
well-known proprietor of minstrel
musical comedy productions who
urges:

Nor must one overlook the COM
plainant who finds a misuse of coal in
the District of Columbia where, ac-
cording to his bserva. on, there is
a wilful waste of electric light in
government buildings. Added to
these are dozens of letters from con-
servationists who would have all
street lights in cities shut Oft on
moonlight nights.

tions are that reach the Office of the

in this: They show that through the
orders of the Fuel Administrator
the people of the United States. even
in the most remote sections, have
been aroused to the importance of
economy; they have been brought TO
see that the war is not all to be
