save on lollipops, and the bun thai
finally lands safe in the hands OIL
the boys and girls over there. Here's
the way it goes:
y If American children say NO tc
that 1ollipop that they used to cal
every day, the man who makes ting
lollipop out of sugar will tell the
man who sells the sugar that he does
not need so much next time; the mar
who sells the sugar will tell the mai
who brings the sugar from other
countries in ships, that he needn.1
bother to load up so much sugar mex,
trip; the man who brings the sugar
from foreign countries will soon fine
that he doesn't need so many ships
and then he'll say to Uncle Sam
Here's a ship you DO need, and
don't need"
And Uncle Sam will take that shiI
and fill it with wheat, and perhaps
some sugar, and m thing and anoth
er. and send it over to Europe WITH
war ships, and destroyers, to protec'
it, and the first thing you know, SUI
gar coated buns, made out of Amer
lean wheat, will be disappearing into
the mouths of little French refugees
All because YOU little American:
said "NONE TODAY" to the lollipop.
and candy, and started white magic
that reached across the Atlantic
ocean.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1918-10-31

A penny stick of candy or a lolll-
pop in America is a bun in Belgium
and France. Those are the countries
where there are hungry children who
need buns worse than you need can
dy. And if every little American, in
every State in the union would not
spend that daily penny for candy
ANY DAY, buns with sugar on them
could be given to the hungry chill
dren over the sea, and they would be-
come fat, and healthy and happy like
yourself.
Now that sounds like magic, and
magic it is-white magic, of the very
finest kind. AS magic is quite diff
cult to understand, you will have to
read every word of what follows in
order to see how the trick is done.
You see, the story of how an
American lollipop car turn into a
Belgian bun-just like that's very
much like the story that ends with
dog won't bite pig, pig won't jump
over stile, and l can't get home to-
night"
Lets pretend that W. have come
to the nice part at the end, where
the pig finally jumps over the stile
and the old lady gets home, all be-
cause the cat, way off yonder, be-
gan to eat the rat. In this story it's
the little Americans, who begin to

out the Coming Winter and BE
Compelled to SILVER II Out.

Supplementing the order issued by
the United States Fuel Administration
designating June 3-S as EARLY Or
DERING COAL" WEEK, Governor
Stanley issued the following procla-
nation designating coal week in Ken
lucky which started Monday and con-
tinues until next Saturday:
TO THE PEOPLE OF KENTUCKY,
GREETINGS:
whereas, June to 8 has been de-
signated by the United States Fuel
Administration as coal week, during
which time campaign Will be waged
urging all domestic consumers 10
Mace their orders for stored coal at
this time, | cannot too strongly insist
mon an immediate and hearty cooper
alton with this wise and pertinent
| recommendation of the United States
Fuel Administration and the elhclent
head of this organization In the state
of Kentucky. This timely admonltlon
of the Government can and should De
instantly needed by every patriot VINO
loves his country, and even though
lacking in patriotism-which l cannon
conceive in a Kentuckian at this time
common sense and comfort should
suggest this foresight against certain
inconvenience and probable suffering.
Coal is essentially a munition OF
war. Without an adequate supply OF
this vital thing, provisions are stored
and munitions prepared in vain uniess
the bunkers of the ships transporting
them are filled with coal. 1t supplies
the power to every mill and factory
now working overtime to supply our
allies with sorely needed implements
of war. A failure of an adequate sup
ply of coal leaves our whole transport
tation system inert and helpless.
If the domestic consumer, indi1er-
ent or careless fails to heed THIS
warning. he must either do without
coal in the midst of the rigors ofwln-
ter or be supplied at time when MS
needs will seriously interfere with the
operation of the Federal Government
in providing without delay necessary
fuel to railroads and ships and NUM-
ton plants at time when their ell
fciency may determine the security
of civilization and the destiny of the
world
The people of Kentucky can in no
better way show their patriotism than
by ordering coal now and getting 1t
out of Uncle Sans way, for he must
have these railroads for the war. The
price of this commodity has been re-
duced The increased freight rate
will not 60 into effect until June 25t'T
Economy and patriotism alike demand
instant action. The Fuel Administra-
ton makes no effort to conceal the
eminent danger of coal shortage
during the coming year. The require
ments for btuminous coal as ascer-
tanned by the ADMINISTRATION. indi-
cate that the production will likely
fall considerably short of the neces-
sary amount
Coal ordered now can be secured.

not be secured. In the summer min

SUBMARINE ADD TWO MORE
SHIPS TO LIST

New York, June 5-Two more YES
sells, a Norwegian steamship and one
schooner were added today to the list
of ships known to have been sunk by
the German submarines, which are
raiding in American waters. The to-
tai now stands at thirteen, five steam
ers and eight schooners.
A fact which is regarded as signifi-
cant is that the unarmed merchant
ships attacked have all been sunk by
the use of bombs and shells, torpe-
does never having been called into
service.
1t was definitely established tonight
that only 16 lives have been lost, the
victims being on board the Carolina.

ing conditions are more favorable
The coal Is cleaner, transportation
facilities are infinitely better. Under
normal conditions thousands of coal
cars are not used at this time. Let
no coal car remain empty on sid
ing now because of the folly or indif-
ference of the people of this State.
All wildly remember the difficulties
encountered in the delivery of coal
during last winter. Experience should
teach us to provide against similar
catastrophe and probably worse con-
ditions during the ensuing winter.
This warning is intended for public
utilities and Industrial enterprises
as well as domestic consumers, All,
during the coming week, should ac-
emulate sufficient coal to meet this
winters requirements. No consumer
of coal should fail under any circum-
stances to lay in at least 60 days sup
ply.
Food, fuel and manpower-upon
these three rest the struggle. A fail
ure of the fuel supply will render i'm
potent the diligence of the tiller of
the soil in the production of increased
harvest and the heroism of the SOL
der upon the field battle Nothing
but instant and hearty cooperation
with the Federal Government in this
suggestion will avert the manifest
! misfortunes which will inevitably re-
| suit from a congestion Of our trans
portation facilities in the midst of
winter and lack of fuel for the needs
of the Government.
Kentucky has responded to every
call. She has crowned herself with
honor in the Liberty Loan Drive, in
the Red Cross Campaign and in the
speedy mobilization of her sons for
battle. Let her conduct in this man
ner be another proof of her intelli-
gent and active cooperation and her
ardent patriotism In obeying gladly
and without delay every demand of
the President of the United States and
of the Organization acting with and
through him for the maintenance of
the honor of the flag and the liberia
ton of the world
Therefore, |, A. o. Stanley. Cover
nor Of the Commonwealth of Ken
lucky, do proclaim the week of June
3 to 8, GOAL WEEK, and request
aH-domestic consumers, public util-
tiles and industrial enterprises of
every character to, without delay,
avail themselves Of this period for the
purpose and storage of supply
abundantly adequate for their various
needs during the ensuing winter
In testimony whereof, have caused
these letters to be patent and the seal
of the Commonwealth to be hereunto
affixed. Done at Frankfort, the first
day of June, in the year of our Lord,
1918, and in the 126th year of the
Commonwealth.
