is COAL SHORTAGE NECES-
SARY

Experts are telling us that The
country will be short of coal thi.
winter, because the mining com
panies can not get freight cars
enough for shipping the coal te
the distributing points.
Go into any big railroad yard
in the country and you will see
thousands and thousands Of cars
standing on side tracks, waiting
to be unloaded. In numerous
cases they have been standing
many days. possibly weeks, yet
no apparent attempt is being
made to unload them. Even in
small towns you will find cars
standing day after day.
This condition is one great
cause for the shortage in rail
transportation. 1t is the reason
why many people will freeze next
winter if coal is not moved more
rapidly. 1t would be an easy
matter to correct this disquieting
condition of affairs. The govern
ment could take one great rail
road center as an example. 1t
could send secret service opera
tives to that city to check up on
the idle cars, and the cause for
such idleness An explanation
could be demanded of the rail
road company. If the company
could not give, a legitimate rea-
son, the officials should be pun
shed-jailed if possible. If not
the fault Of the company, and
the consignee is responsible, he
should be punished jailed if
possible.
And if government officials
whose duty it is to prosecute
such offenders show an inclina-
ton to delay or evade the issue
because some prominent peo-
ple' are involved, the president
should remove them from office
and otherwise punish hem-jail
the Sinking prosecutors, if pos
sible.
J One such shakeup as an ex-
ample would be sufficient. Cars
would begin to move everywhere,
and would keep on moving. And
the people could keep warm next
winter-which is doubtful under
present conditions.

Think little and you will call
to mind some young lady whose
sweetness Of disposition is mar
vel to her friends. Part of that
disposition is hereditary, but
much of it is the result Of envi-
ronment and early training.
Some mothers have rare talent
in the training Of children. They
do not rule by threats and spanks,
but from early childhood the
pride of the little one is brought
to the fore. AS early as it can un-
derstand, it is taught to be gentle
and sweet. and to tak.s pride in
excelling in those womanly quail
tiles which appeal so strongly to
the human race AS child is

which is so charming in the fe-
male sex. and which appeals so
strongly in all stations of life.

that we build factories through

work to be done. and shut them
down in the summer when the
men are needed on the farms. 1t
is sane, sensible and eminently

easy of attainment. 1t could be

any other place. We have the
