Any claim that the city of Rock Island might have
the court house square, would be cheerfully for
feted to the county, because it is the site of the
county seat, well from a desire to make the

"TAG-YOUR-SHOVEL-DAY"

Reports from superintendent of
Montana schools in dicate that the
state will be we'll organized for "Tag-
Your-Shovel-Day," January 30. School
children who are to officiate in the
capacity of taggers, under the direc-
tion of the school superintendent and
the teachers, have taken great inter-
est and good natured rivalry is
evinced.
Part of this is due to the patriotic
impulse of the younger generation and
part to the suggestion that the boy
or girl who tags the largest number
of shovels in his community shall be
chosen to tage the coal shovel of the
principal citizen.
State Fuel Administrator Swindle-
hurst has distributed the $4,000 tags
to the school superintendents and they
in turn under the direction of the
county fuel committees will attend
to the organization of the children.
During the next two months the
nation will be hard put to keep the
war munitions plants, the factories
and the transportation lines in coal.
The shortage, due to the tremendous
war time demand, must in part be
made up from the saving to be ac-
complished in the homes and the
business places of the nation
The work of tagging the shovels
will begin early on January 80 and it
is expected holiday will be declared
for the school children on that date.
The imperative need for this move
ment lies in the fact that in spite of
the utmost effort there is still a short
age of 50,O0O,OO0 tons of coal which
must be made up in every was pos
sible. The saving of shovelful of
coal by the domestic consumers ev-
erywhere will aid materially and il
is to impress this fact upon the minds
of the people that the national fue
administration has adopted the Tag

by the government.

No deductions shall be made from

The other matter which had to be
determined was how disabled man
