has been disastrous. There is and al ways has been plenty of fuel, but it can not be moved to those places where 1t is so badly needed while railroad lines and terminals are choked. Throughout the coal fields. scores, even hundreds ot mines, are lying idle because of rail road inability to supply the cars te carry away their product. Coal mines cannot operate without cars. Cars can. not be supplied while the railroads arc crippled by the present freight conges- tion, which keeps idle cars lying use- less in the freight yards.
 COAL PRODUCTION REDUCED
 'In the past week the production of coal has been disastrously reduced. Re ports in some cases have shown 90 per cent. of the mines in certain fields closed completely for lack of cars.
 This is war; whatever the cost we must pay so that in the face of the en. emy there can never be the reproach that we held back from doing our full share. Those ships laden with our sup. plies of food for men and food for guns must have coal and put to sea-

General March, chief of staff on Saturday made the
following statement which is pregnant with meaning:
This afternoon $4,000 men went ashore at one
of our base ports and 1000 more will be off be-
fore noon tomorrow Sunday Fifteen ships ar
rived at 10 o'clock this morning, out of which
twelve unloaded and viii be ready to re-
turn to America tomorrow
If the kaiser harbOred the belief that the presence Of
his submarines the American side of the Atlantic
would slow up troop movements from the United States
he should now be disllusiOned. With $4,000 troops
landing during period of "a hours and the troopshps
making the turnaround and starting back in the
time the plan to have an American army of 100000
in France by June 80 next seems certain Of fufIment
It is a marvellous performance

1t may be that Washington officials view the attack
upon the transport Persc carrying $500 American SOL
diers, as success, but the American people will not
want many successes of that kind. It was a narrow
escape for the $500 and the ships crew. and our people
will not be able to understand why the ship was left at
the mercy of the submarines of the enemy. If there
was engine trouble surely the lives of so many were
worth delaying the whole fleet for 1t looks as though
should be called to account for this success

FoURTH LIBERTY LoAN pRIYE.

FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN DRIVE.
The fourth Liberty Loan drive is
soon to be launched in Greene coun-
ty. The county is to be worked by
civil districts. Committees of the
best citizens in each district are to
be appointed at an early date. The
Tenth district will be divided and as
signed to four captains Of teams, all
working under the generalship Of W..
H. Doughty.

pose Of securing subscriptions to the

100 per cent of the allotted quota in

tees are not leaving anything undone
to try to make the county make good
in the coming campaign.

posed of the best citizens and most
Influential men in those districts, and
while they are all business men of
affairs, they will give of their time to
this patriotic work. The county boys
have been conscripted and sent to
fight, and the county executive COM
mittee do not believe that the people
Of the county will be Stacking in
their money to take care Of these
boys.
The chairman is arranging to have
public speakings throughout the
county, and two meetings in Greene
vile, at which addresses will be made
by Hon. Geo. L. Berry, and Mr.. ]. l.
Finney, of Columbia, Tenn, will be
held during the campaign.
The following heads Of commit
tees have been announced:

"A LITTLE LEARNING"

A Chicago man was walking through foreign quarter of his city when. with an amused smile, he stopped in front of small eating place. on the window of which was painted in white Lam Stew
 Now the proprietor happened to be standing in the doorway. and when he saw the smile of the gentleman who had stopped in front of his place, he asked to be favored with an explanation of the joke.
 Whereupon the other explained about the missing "b'' in lamb and the proprietor accepted the correction in good part, at the same time ex- pressing his thanks.
 When the next time the man pass ed that restaurant he found that the menu had been changed but that the lesson in orthography had not been forgotten. The proprietor was now offering "Clamb Chowder.'
