."Hea{t Of Humanity"

''The Heart of Humanity" to be seen next week at the New Theatre, lumns on the gray back ground of the last days of the conflict, a tender and appaaiin Z romance of loyal love and un- swerving devotion. The whole production. from beginning to end, is fraught with tEe spirit of those great days when an anx,- ous world hung breatniessly up- on word frola the Seethlng bat tie front in Flanders. IL reflects the hush that fell upon civiIlza- tion when the forces of human ity came to final grip with the ruthless might of autocracy, and it echoes round the world when the Hun line crumbled before the allied attack and fled back ward toward the sheltering from tiers of Germany to sue for peace.
 Into the midst of these stirr- ing scenes of immeaSurabie DOT tent. there makes 1t way gentle romance Of Nanette. an Amerl- rcan girl reared in the north woods oi Canada, anu of her Canadian lover, John Patricia. Joined as war Is begun, as war progresses they are separated- to meet again where the giant guns tbun der their challenge on the fields of France. fnllher John goes as an officer in the Royal Flying Corps and there Nanette, hearkening to the cries of the homeless and motherless children, follows in the garb of the Red Cross.
 Then comes the last great Hun attack k-the last terrifying drive toward Paris when Chateau Thierry became another Verdun and the might of America, thrown into the balance, stayed the ene- my, halted him and finally drove him back, until his retreat be- came a rout and he cried aloud for peace. Graphically, all the hopes, the pray CTS, the fears. the faith that stirred the heart of humanity in those days of vast import are reflected in the Alien Hoinbar romance of the war. In the confusion and chaos oi attack and counter attack. John and Nanette, servants of the great cause, drawn by their love, are once more brought together and the scenes shift from the field of Flanders back to the Canadian lauds of the whisper ing pines where the benediction of the World peace finds them re. united in their love.

COAL OUTPUT LAST

Ufi too0oo MINERS IN THE [ ARMY TIRE PRODUCTION WAS
 INCREASED OVER 1917.

Washington, Jan. 1-W With an esti mated output of S7.50000O tons. all records fer the production of bitum 2nous coal in the United States werc broken during 1918. said statement issued by the National Coal associa. ton This total was approximately 3tp 3ao0 tons in excess of the for mer record output in lgl7.
 The nations war time demand for coal the heaviest in the country his tory has been met ip full" said the statement The mining of this pan. Der tonnage during 1918 also virtually insutes the country against repeti. ton of the distressing sAortage of bltuminous coal experienced last win. ter. With fair operating conditions and intelligent distribution of the product, 1t is likely that there will be sufficient bImminous coal for the na- ton during the winter
 Fhe years record tonnage has been mined. under the spur of war time necessity, with fewer men gen orally in the coal nines of the coun- try than during 1qt7 when the out. put was materially lower Reports from virtually every producing field in the nation to the National Coal as- sCciation indicate that not less than J0Q0Q0 mine employees entered the military agd naval service during the year approximately S0000 through tAe draft law alone Close efficiency of tilc mana cement, patriotic desires of operators and employees to support the eovemment in prcsecHng the var to thu maximum of their ability and a letter car supply and movement under the operations of the United states railroad administration are chiefly responsible for the increase in production
 A year ago the country faced an unprecedented coal shortage, today it faces he prospect Of a sufficient coal supply to meet it's requirements. The change has been brought about hy a year of the utmost activity, viz orous action and close cooperation with the United states fuel adnlinis- tratlon
