playing in Sir Henry Irving's com.
pany, IN which was also Tom Mead
a well known actor OF his day. and
one OF the old school. Mr.. Mead
had a very full voice, and his asides
were always given as loudly as his
utterances. In one of the parts he
used to play there came the lines
Sleeping in the orchard, as my
custom always in the afternoon,

Sir Henry took him to task about

THRIFT AND EFFICIENCY.

The appeal made by President
Wilson with reference to the Wal
Savings Stamps campaign need not
lose any of its force because that
campaign has come to successful
end. 1t is essential from now until
the close of the war, and for all We
know. for considerable period
after the war
THAT our people everywhere
pledge themselves to the practice OF
thrift; to serve the government to
their utmost by increasing produc-
ton in all fields necessary to the
winning OF the war; to conserve
food and fuel and useful materials
OF every kind and to buy only those
things which are essential TO indi-
yidual health and efficiency
Here Thrift and Etiiciency-sav-
ing and produc.ion-go hand in
hand. as they should. Each is futile
without the other. We can go much
farther than We have yet gone in
the practice OF both.

and won't you be blamed less by the
people if you spend the money the
way we voted it?
Tulsa has the Arkansas River by
its very door. Steamboats, have ac-
tually run as far up on this river as
Tulsa. Tulsa has spent hundreds OF
thousands OF dollars to get this
water and more than 100000 for a
plant to treat the water. and now
they are scouting the hills and even
the far country for possible new
sources of supply.
Can you get better results out OF
a smaller and shorter stream, Won't
you be forced to go, after all, to the
purest and best source OF supply !?
1t will rain more later on. The
water shed in the mountains is large
and the water will be pure and come
down without much, if any, pump
ing. You can without doubt i'm
pound vast quantities and good en-
gineers say you can hold it and de-
liver it to Ardmore. If you turn it
into our lake in time of plenty it
will not pollute what you have. as
will the water from the Washi.a.

MONOPOLIZING EMPLOY
MENT.

Uncle Sam has added to his other
functions a virtual monopoly OF the
labor market. After August nc
industry employing more than one
hundred workers will be allowed to
recruit common labor independent
". 1t must fill its needs through
the agency of the federal employ
ment service. The rule may soon
be extended to cover skilled labor
also.
The purpose is twofold. The gov
ernment wants to control the labor
providing the labor required by es-
scntial war industries. and it wants
to stop the private competition for
labor which has led to much labor
stealing and caused a great deal OF
industrial confusion.
The new plan should bring about
an immediate and lasting improve
mcnt in the general labor situation.
IT, as the department estimates, 2o
to 40 per cent Of the common labor
now available is not productivity
employed, the proper organization
and Capitalization of the employ
ment business should make the sup
ply go great deal farther than it
is now going. There should, and
doubtless will, be the fullest CO.
operation between government in
dustry and labor organizations.

Des Moines, March 26.-More than
100000 cords of wood will be cut in

port of Professor Macdonald. Of Ames
who is in charge of the wood for fuel
campaign being promoted by the fed

Macdonald has been touring the state
in the past few weeks urging the
cutting of more wood. Last season
about 100000 cords were cut fol
fuel.
Reports are coming in of many Goa!
mines being shut down. Operators
claim that the lack of demand has
caused the shutdown but in most sea-
sons there is but little letting up in
mining operations until April |. The
governments program is for the con-
suners to buy their fuel and store ii
during the early summer months in
order TO give the mines opportunity to
meet the demand next fall and winter
In order to encourage the people to
begin storing their coal early the
federal fuel administration head
quarters at the state house has pre-
pared a big poster which is to be sent
out giving the method to be used to
store Iowa or Illinois coal safely. Seven
rules for storing coal are given as
follows:
l. store only screened lump coal
2. Store on dry concrete floor il
possible.
8. Store only when dry.
4. Handle carefully to avoid break
age.
). Do aot pile coal over four or five
feet high.
6. II there is much fine coal or dust
in the load keep separate and use
first.
See that the windows are closed
tight to keep out the rain as alternate
weting and drying causes stacking.
