was left out the last issue but it
seems that such omissions are

The coal situation was relieved
a little in Kadoka on Tuesday
when fuel administrator O. f.
Stuart got busy and grabbed a
car of coal in the yards up at
Rapid. Had Mr.. Stuart not been
successful in landing this car,
there undoubtedly would have
been suffering in town as several
were completely out of fuel. The !
efforts of Mr. Stuart are certainly
appreciated by all. Tom Brake |
of the Smith yard is expecting a |
65 ton Car in today and this will
help US out for one blizzard at |
least.
