DEFINITE ORDERS
FOR FUEL SAYING
LOCAL ADMINISTRATOR BOOCK
RECEIVES EXPLICIT
DIRECTIONS
SLIGHT CHANGES ONLY IN THE
PROGRAM AS FIRST
ANNOUNCED

Comparatively few, changes appear in
the Fuel Saving order as it was first
issued by the National fuel chief, Garfield,
and practically the same people kept
open shop Monday of this week as were
open Monday of last week. On the first
closed day, everyone thot best to follow
the order closely so that no fault might
be found and when A. L. Book, fuel
chief for Brown County received written
orders Saturday they were found to-
differ but very little if any from the plans
adopted by business places the pre-
ceding Monday.
Altho the orders are fairly familiar
by this time to all readers of daily papers,
it is we'll that each customer of any
concern should read the orders repeatedly
so that all may know exactly when and
under what conditions business people
may be found in their places of business
on the next eight Mondays.
