A WASTED APPEAL.

Most of what is being done in be- half of conservation by calling peo- ple's attention to the necessity of saw ing can be endorsed, but it is hard to see where any benefit is going to be obtained from the campaign which is being started in some places Of having the children so from house to house and place tas on the coal shovel as a means of reminding the householder that he should save coal.
 Under the present state of affairs it IS perfectly apparent that no such re- hinder is required. The heusehelders are able to judge by their own coal supply whether they can afford to bf other than economical, From the trouble which they are having seeur- ing. fuel and the indications that the situation is not going to improve very rapidly there Is a much more impres-
 siNe reminder than tag on the eoa
 shovel that fuel must net be wasted
 There may be some instances whers more coal is being burned than needed
 In those instances the tag will nak.

 To tag the coal shavsls under sucl conditions becomes g joke, Neeessit, is forcing people to do just what tn tags would urge, The effort woul ! therefore mean waste of materia l and time which might better be de voted to other matters where real op portunities for effective service exisr The tagging of the coal shovel unde existing conditions cannot be regarde otherwise than wasted appeal.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Protest Against Arbitrary Action.

WIVES "S6'nSs EAi V A'y EN~saSh"
 MT. Editor: Permit me through the columns of The Bulletin to enter a vigorous protest against the arbitrary action of the water department in shutting off the water from several houses on Williams street without notifying the occupants, thereby caus-
 ing not simply inconvenience but actu-
 al suffering. A broken hydrant was
 the cause, which, of course, needed
 immediate attention. A mild protest
 to the superintendent called forth the
 curt response: we don't have to llo-
 tify you.n Recognizing the necessity for prompt action, it seems to- me that
 messenger might have been sent through the street and in very few minutes sufficient water could have heen drawn for immediate needs but no. the water was suddenly shut off without warning, creating a condition which was decidedly embarrassing, an moving and painful, all of which mighi | have been avoided by few mements l of thoughtful courtesy on the part e the official in charge, and this we have a right te expect from our public ser l wants even at the cost of losing few gallons of water, from a gushing hy 1 drant.
 Yours respectfully,
 GEORGE G. SCRIVENER. Norwich, Jan. 16, 1918.
