No wonder the householder is puz-
zled by the conflicting advices of the
purveyors of the necessaries of life!
Buy coal now. Do not buy sugar now.
buy other things when you please OF
when you have the money or the
credit with which to secure them.
You are then told why buying coal
now will help to prevent a scarcity
and how not buying sugar now will
help prevent scarcity. Yet both
of these apparently conflicting In
functions have certain amount OF
truth and wisdom behind them.
If everybody bought coal now and
insisted on immediate delivery, ii
would create veritable panic. The
trouble is that most people insist
on postponing the buying of coal un-
til cold weather is at hand. Wher
a similar warning of a shortage Of
sugar is issued, then every house
hold in the land becomes panic strick
en- and every housewife wants to la!
in just a little extra supply. SO thu
same truth is not applicable in tn
case of both coal and sugar.

How Much More?

Strikes and rumors OF strikes are
the aftermath of the Great War; The
swing of the pendulum is taking US
past the point of common sense IN
the struggle for the almighty dollar.
Labor is at bat. She is running
up a good score but the game has
several innings to go. Opposed to
labor in the big game we find capt.
tai, plus professional men plus all
others who are not members OF
labor unions and in whom there is
still spark of common sense.
AS the pendulum swings along on
its upward course the dollar becomes
a thing of infnitestimal value. The
longer they are described the less will
the dollar purchase. The law of the
pendulum leads us to believe that it
will reach it's height-when, is prob
lematical-and will begin its down.
ward path bringing the dollar back
to its proper place of consequence.
Labor is entitled to a just recon-
pense for services rendered but pres
ent indications are that might-the
might of combination and numbers
is taking the place of right-common
sense and fair figures. People every
where are coming to common feel
ing of disgust for the grasplng attl-
tude of the unions which exhibit but
slight regard for Americanism and
patriotism.
The labor leaders are not far
sighted-or we are not. Something
has got to break under the strain OF
excessive labor demands, under the
foolish robbing attitude of expecting
more than the business effected car
pay.
Some people will walk an houl
wearing wooden shoes out of sheel
disgust with the gang rule which
places car services at eXorbitant prlc
es and common shoes at forme
good weekly wage per pair.

S C 245 Comes to Burlington
Public Can Explore Ship That Helped
Beat Huns-To Be Here Eight
Weeks

BURLINGTON, July 21-The Sub
marine Chaser 245 arrived in Burling-
ton Friday in charge of Ensign
Martin Wyseman land having crew
of nine men besides the commander.
The trip was made here from New
York via the Hudson River and canal
and during her trip the craft encoun-
tered no difficulties save congestcd
traffic on the river which made her
running speed much less than under
ordinary conditions.
The boat is a veteran of the world
war and did excellent service in for
eign waters for seven months. Many
times she had engaged submarines in
action and while off Cape Finistere,
Spain engaged in a battle with two
subs which were both put out of ac-
ton. While lying off the Cape a sub
marine came up on the port side and
while all hands were anXiously pre-
pairing to give battle another sub
came up to the starboard. The com
mander realizing by some mariners
instinct that his greatest danger lay
on the starboard came about and OPP
ened up on the undcrseas boat send
ing her to the bottom. Meanwhile for
some reason the other U-boat did not
attempt to open up fire, so using one
of the machine guns mounted on the
bridge the crew managed to pierce
the sides of the submarine with their
shots.

RICHMOND COLLEGE MAY
BRANCH OUT THIS YEAR
Frank Dobson's Team Wins Title
and Wants Chance at Larger

sun in South Atlantic athletics shortly.
The lads coached by Frank NJ Dobson
not only won the Eastern Virginia
Collegiate football title again. but
scored a tie with the University OF
Virginia early in the season.
Richmond appears 10 be ripe for
bigger games in football. basketball
and baseball than those of the Inter
collegiate Association. Richmond COL
lege looks to have outgrown the Asso-
citation in football at least and IL is
possible that instead of playing two
football games all around in the CIR
cult next year. but one game will be
played with each college.
This will probably mean that an ef-
fort will be made to stage the inter
collegiate contests with Richmond
College. Hampden Sidney. William and
Mary and Randolph Macon playing but
one game each.
The field then appears set for Rich
mona College to schedule other and
stronger teams. 1t is intimated that
Johns Hopkins University will be
taken on by the Richmond men. II
is further expected that other South
Atlantic teams will be scheduled by
the Richmond men and that V. p. T..

be listed IL possible.

mond next year in which even il is
likely that Richmond will have its

been at the hands of Syracuse,
one of the leading eastern

one over Boston College, the
team that beat Yale.

lost to Georgetown, but other

against Colby marked the high
