The long train of freight cars whined and grumbled as it strove to stop. In the doorway of great low building a white capped and gowned woman re- leased a sunny smile and, turning so her voice carried into the building, called out. "They are ours; get ready for rush."
 Just how she could tell they were "ours' would be hard to explain, for al the moment she spoke hundreds of the dirtiest, grizzliest men a woman ever saw ca me fairly tumbling out of the freight ears. A moment more she was welcoming this muddy rabble with laugh and cheering words.

Inside the building there were more women, all spick and span in white, with faces beaming, handing out good nome cooked" food over spotless tiled counters. Some of the boys fairly ran for the food; others went into the long batteries of baths. throwing out their vermin ridden clothes to be sterilized while they scrubbed their bodies back to healthy glow.
 What luxury it all was-food, tables, chairs, things tt read, games to play, paper for writing, barber shop, a movie theater and good, clean beds

Consumers Can Help r,cyenr Shortage Next Winter by Buying Now, Says Fuel
 Administrator.
GARFIELD SOUNDS WARNING.
Better Borrow Goney Now to Buy Than Do Without Later, He Says-if our Storage Space Isn't large
 Enough, Enlarge '">
By HARRY A. GARFIELD,

United Sts les Fuel Administrator. Every householder, every public uttl- !ty and e-ery industrial user Of coal engaged in work essential to the prose- cution of the war are earnestly ad- vised and urged to place without de- lay their orders for coal to cover their needs for the F montbs beginning April 1
 Duriy the past 12 nor. .hs there has been suffering among consumers and curtailment of essential production by industries through inability to obtain necessary fuel after the beginning of winter. A year ago consumers were led to believe that they might safely withhold their orders until later in the year. They labored under the impress sion that coal could be bought and se- cured as well at one time as another. They were told that there was plenty of coal for everybody and that there would be plenty of coal cars to move the coal in also.
 This advice and its acceptance by l consumers was one of the contributing causes to the coal shortage, With it's consequent suffering among domestic consumers and lessening in production | of commodities needed in our war ace | tivities.
 The Fuel Administrati 4 was not 1 then in existence and did not begin it's work until August 23 It was then al- l ready too late to undo the harm which | had been done. The Fuel Administra-
 ton would be negligent of it's duty to ] the public Ii it failed to call attention
 ct this time 10 the unfortunate results
 If fhe mistaken course pursued by the | public year ago and to warn all con-
 sumers in the most emphatic manner possible that a repetition of those re-
 suits can be avoided only by accepting
 and ting immediately upon the Fuel
 Adw inistrations advice, here gwen.
 Order Your Coal at Once.
 Let every consumer of the classes mentioned ascertain his fuel re0uire' ments for the coming year. Do this at once. Order sufficient coal to meet those requirements. Place your orders at once. If domestic consumers lave
 not sufficient storage space for the
 coal they will need they should en-
 large their bins. If public utilities and industries engaged upon government work have not sufficient storage space
 they should at once nr:,'..:s,s r
