We should profit by the lesson
learned last winter during the
fuel shortage, and prepare this
summer for next winters needs.
This country has an abundance
of the best fuel in the world
wood. There should not be a
ton of coal burned next winter
on American farms that have
their own wood. Not only this
but towns accessible to wood
should arrange to burn it and
lay in their supply during the
summer. Fuel famines are a
serious proposition and our
people can prevent one next
winter if they will. Then there
is the element of patriotism.
This action is strongly urged
by the Fuel Administration.
This organization foresees the
extraordinary demand that will
be made on our coal mines, and
would warn the people in time.

field Smith was held from the

Thursday morning Mt 10 30.
The services were conducted bv

assisted by Rev. Jas. NJ. Smith,
of the Presbyterian church. A
large number of sorrowing
friends were in attendance.

loe, G. Cantrcll and Byron
ithoads. The inierment was
made in the family square IN
Glencoe cemetery.
The death of Reginald, which
was announced in last weeks
Post, deserves more than passing
notice. His manner of life, his
qualities of mind and heart, as
well as his attachments in his
short pilgrimage on earth have
left a lasting impression upon
his loved ones, and his friends.
His memory should be kept fresh,
and his noble example should be
followed by all those who we're
priyiledged to know him init
mately. He was born on Au-
gust 23, 1899, was the eldest son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Malcolm Smith,
OF Big Stone Gap, and was rear
cd at this place. He graduated
in the Big Stone Gap High
School in the class of 1917, and
last fall entered the Virginia
Polytechnic Institute, at Blacks
burg, TO study Mechanical Engin-
eering. He was an earnest faith
full student, both in the local
schools and i'll college. His rec
ord for last year was an excep-
tionally good one. When the
Reserve Officers Training Corps
was organized at V. =. 1. by the
War Department, lie availed
himself of the opportunity thus
afforded to secure special train
ing leading to ii commission in
the National Army. He ex
pressed himself as being very
anxious to enter the army rs
soon rs possible and do his bit in
the present world struggle.
Reginald made a public pro
fession of his faith in the Lord
Jesus Christ, ami on March %,
1915, he united with the South
ern Methodist church, of this
place. Those who have observed
him, testify to his faithfulness
and earnestness in the perform
ance of all his religious duties.
When he left home for college.
he continued to cherish high
ideals and noble aspirations, and
was identified with the work of
the Sunday school and church in
Blacksburg.
He was Il faithful friend, a
most congenial companion, de-
voted son and an eHectionate
brother. Only those who knew
him most intimately appreciated
his real worth, for he was natur-
ally very modest and retiring in
his manner. His sudden depar-
ture from our midst should make
us remember the reality of i'm
mortality, and should cause us
to put forth the most earnest eff
forts ourselves to so live that we
may one day join him and all of
our beloved dead in the upper
and better world.
Many beautiful floral offer
ings, and personal calls from his
friends assured the family of the
lalfectionate sympathy extended
them i'll their bereavement.
