of those forms of fuel that are
growing rapidly less in VOL
umn.
1t is said that more domes-
tic coal has been stored this
season than ever before, prob
ably ten times as much, 50
that there will be all that is
required for the industrials.
The government has taken
the restrictions off brick fac
tories and other plants that
are heavy users of coal, it be-
ing the purpose to encourage
as far as possible all indus
trial activities, SO that men re-
turning from the army may
have a greater opportunity to
be assimilated back into the
channels of constructive life.
There is temporarily a slow
ing down in coal production,
and many mines are CLOSEUP
but it is believed that as busl-
ness is more normally adJusI-
ed, the increasing demand TOT
industrials will more than
compensate for a temporary
slackness.
With fuel as with wood, the
greater lesson that has been
learned by the people of the
United States is that wll1ui
waste is nothing short %
criminal, and that energies
and resources must be coh
served and scientifically, oi
sensibly applied.

made to receive the men of the
57th Infantry from Camp Lo-
gan who are to arrive the last
of the week. The men will
probably be housed in tents
for a time but 1t is expected
that the buildings of the pro-
posed officers training school
will be completed and made
ready for the occupancy of the
men and officers of the 57th
Infantry. In this area will be
three Y buildings, one of
which will be for the officers
as a club ,and service building.
In preparation of the men
so soon to be returned to civil
life for their duties as civil
ians, the Y M G. A is carrying
out a morale program which
was successfully started at
Camp Travis. DR.. Ira Land
rith, a stalwart Texas educa-
tor, lecturer and publicist, who
delivered a series of lectures
at Camp Travis on citizenship
will be at Camp Pike Saturday
and Sunday making short and
pithy talks to the men advising
them how to live for their
country, now that it is not nee
essary for them to give their
lives for her. 1t. Jean Picard
a hero of the Marine, accom-
panies DR.. Landrith in his tour
and clinches the arguments of
the noted prohibitionist by
telling how the men of France
and Belgium poured out their
blood for their nations.

FUEL REGULATION

The cessation of hostilities
has not reduced the necessity
for the sane regulation of fuel.
The Fuel Administration has
announced that it will con-
tinue it's work at least during
the present winter.
Retail coal dealers are still
required to secure certificates
of registration to enable them
to engage in business.
The statistical department
at Washington is still requir-
ing weekly reports from the
State Administration and the
reports are therefore essential
from the dealers and if not
made according to regulation
the dealer is subject to a for
fixture of his license.
No change has been made
in price regulations governing
the wholesaler and the retail
err, nor have the zone restric-
tons been removed.
Some effective work is being
done by E. V. Leverett, the
Conservation Engineer, who is
working with industrial plants
of the state to bring about a
more scientific use of fuel.
There is no doubt but that
much good has been accom-
plished by the Fuel Admins
tration in the prevention of
waste, the utilization of wood
as fuel and the conservation

CAMP PIKE NOTES

While the process of disor-
ganization at Camp Pike has
commenced and the work is
being carried on at rate of
discharge from $50 to $50 men
a day, yet it must not be under,
stood that the men will not be
coming home at once. Many
formalities are being under
gone by the soldiers so that
the government may be pro-
tected against the possibility
of disability claims after the
war. For this reason no man
will be Immediately released
whose physical condition is
not as good as it was at his in
trance into the service unless
it can be shown that his disa-
bility is not of his own making.
On this account many men are
being transferred to develop
ment battallions to be held
until their records can be
cleared. This may detaln as
many as 5000 men in camp
until January Is, to February
LIST. But efforts will be made
to get as many men home by
Christmas as can possibly be
released. This, of course, has
no reference to the venerial
stockade where the men will
be held until completely cur
ed before discharge. Men in
the hospital will also be held.
Arrangements are being

Lieut.. Whipple
Writes of Trip
AcrOs the Sea

Lieut.. George Whipple. who is now
in France. writes his parents. Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Whipple, an interesting &C.
count of his trip from California to
France. Speaking Of the ocean trip
he says:
"The outside scenery isn't much. 1t
is at times, but it gets monotonous.
The huge waves, a whale, an iceberg
and a ship now and then break the
monotony. haven't kept watch for
any submarines; decided TO let the
ship crew and eonvPy worry about
that.
I'VE have very few formations on
board ship; boat drill, physical drill,
bath drill are about all. The last
they accomplish by draining a swim
ming pool in the ships hole. Put
about 60 showers over this. Then
we run men into this until it is crowd
ed. then turn in the cold sea water.
And it is cold. too. but they enjoy 1t.
"You can hear them all over the

This drill VS. mixed with strange re-
suits with the boat drill the other
day. The call for men for the boat
drill came when several companies
were undressed for their bath. Well,
orders are orders. SO they manned
the boats with nothing on but life
belt. Was rather a shock to the
nurses who were also answering boat
drill call. but there were no casual.
ties and they did take the men below
shortly before they froze.
There are few civilians aboard.
Congressman. nurses and troops make
up the rest. We spend most OF our
time on the boat deck. The men
keep on the outside decks below. They
pass the time with wrestling and box
ing matches. Then there are numer-
Gus band concerts in the smoking
room during the evenings, and all
dance who find room.
1T is a funny looking crowd, every
body wearing life belts and yet dane
ing. 1t wouldn't do to let us forget
this war, SO we always have some
thing to wear-gas masks or life belts
to remind u.s.
