PACKING FIRMS
FEEL COAL LACK
WITH COLD SNAP
South Side Taking Drastic
Measures to Conserve Fuel
as Thermometer Drops
Several Degrees.

The effect of the coal shortage
was keenly felt on the South Side
Tuesday morning as the thermome
ter took sudden drop.
Judge Foster held court wearing
his overcoat and other court officials
and officers all kept on their winter
apparel
The sudden arrival of the cold
snap caused people to make hurried
appeal for fuel and stores were
begged to sell their accumulated
packing boxes for fires.
Various smokestacks at the diff
ferent packing plants did not emit
the usual large volumes Of smoke
indicating that economy is being
practiced.
Where there have been numerous
switch engines steaming around the
stock yards, but two or three are
now being seen and the manage
ments of the several plants have
expressed an intention of co-opera-
ton in handling live stock and food
products,
Every means possible to con-
serve coal will be used at the Ex-
change building and it has been
planned to close up every commits
sion Office in the building an hour
or two earlier in the afternoon.
According to announcements Of
several managers of packing plants,
their establishments may be COM
PEELED to work on half time and
this will mean considerable loss
in wages of several thousand en-
ployes.
R. c, Howe, manager of the Ar
mour plant said Tuesday, a plan
was being worked out to apportion
the hours of various branches so
that every available pound of power
will be used without waste in any

cuff king, who is starring in "The

Though he devotes his art chiefly

that magic is an obsession, like golf;
Houdini has defed shackles and
iron bars in all parts of the world.
He exhibits his most eatf-defying

EDUCATE OWNERS
IN CARE OF THEIR
CAR BATTERIES
Prest-O-Lite Distributors Hold
Big. Convention at Hotel
Fontenelle.

A nationwide propaganda of edu-
cation to automobile users regarding
the care of storage batteries was
the keynote at the convention OF
Prest-O-Lite Storage Battery Dis
tributers at Hotel Fontenelle Mon
day and Tuesday. A large number
of distributors attended the meeting
and similar conventions are to fol-
low in other sections of the coun-
try.
Storage battery manufacturers
cannot possibly provide the neces-
sary batteries for 1920, in spite of
tremendous increases in output"
said Mr.. F. A. -Lawrenson,
vice president of the Prest-O-Lite
company of indianapolis, who is in
charge of the convention. In our
own case, we shall turn out $50 per
cent more storage batteries than we
did in 1919, yet very careful allot-
ment to distributors must be made
to prevent failure in getting every
battery into the users hand prompt
ly. There is only one possible an
swer to the situation Battery re-
placements on large share Of the
100000 cars now in use and new
batteries for more than 100000
new cars mean that the supply will
not 60 around. Therefore, car own
crs must be educated to better care
of their present batteries and serv-
ice stations must be required to give
a higher standard of repair and re-
charging service.
According to Mr.. Lawrenson, the
output of the Prest-O-Lite com.
pany for 1920. which represents an
increase of $50 per cent over the
present year, is already sold.
In addition-and in order that
there may be available at all times
every facility for instructing the car
owner in the fundamentals of bat
terry care--a special staff of expert
field engineers will visit the 5000
Prest 0 Lite service stations
throughout the country for the pur-
pose of educating the men in charge
in the higher standards of testing,
repairing and recharging batteries.
This is the first national compaign
of the kind ever launched by a
manufacturer of automobile Access

Among the interesting features Of
this convention were addresses by

York advertising man, covering
