Buy Your Coal Direct
From Mine-Big Saving

Ths high cost Of coal is a thing Of
the pastl AT least, there are no COM
plants on this account-since the re-
moval Of government restrictions
among those who have learned how to
buy coal. The way to buy coal is to
get it direct from the mines. This
saves several midd1emen's profits. 1t
saves hauling expenses. Anyone can
now buy at mine prices, whether a
carload buyer or one who uses only
ten or fifteen tons a year. This has
been made possible through a plan
evolved by a large and old-established
concern, THE BERNICE COAL COM
PANY, with main offices at $50 Como
Building, Chicago.
This company has thousands of GUS
toners in various sections Of the
United States who receive all Of their
coal direct from the mines. These
customers are pleased not only be-
cause of the many dollars they save
every year, but also because Of the
quality of coal they are getting. Many
write that they never before had coal
that makes so little dust, that burns
so well, leaving so few ashes. If you
are a coal user-whether you use hccd
or soft coal, much or litle-it win De
greatly to your advantage to write
the BERNICE COAL CO., at once for
prices, stating kind and quantity Of
coal you use. Adv.

Milady Now Buys Shoes For
The Occasion Rather Than
The Seasonal Dads Purse Suffers

There is no doubt about 1.-THE
modern girl decides what she wants
before she leaves home; whether it be
a cereer or a new pair of shoes, and
she proceeds to get the one of her
choice with the least possible expen-
kditure Of time and effort.
Local shoe dealers say that it is an
easy matter to sell a pair Of shoes to
a girl Or young lady as she usually
knows exactly what she wants, and
if the dealerhas the right sizethe sale
is made without much eado." If the
shop she visits does not carry her
style she leaves promptly and tries
another.
Elderly women tend to be more
conservative and debate longer over
the purchase. Most of them buy shoes
that are to last for several seasons
and such a purchase of course, seems
more monumental to them than to
the younger generation, where one
season may see four or five pairs
bought.
The college girls in Mexico are said
to be very good customers, as they
usually know exactly what they want
buy quickly if its in stock and refrain
from what one merchant character
lied as looking for ever"
However, most of the dealers agree
hat all people buy nor quickly now
that is if they have the money al
all. People generally have two pail
of pedal protectors now where they
had one before, so the choice Of an ex'
pensive pair isn't the epochal affair
it once was.
There are still those people who
make a speciality of Shopping around
and shoe dealers get more than theil
share of that. Clerks without excep
tion stated too that they enjoy i'm
mensely that lovable customer wht
"tries on fourteen pairs and ther
limps out with a "thank you, I'll b,
back again."
Styles of ladies, shoes haven
changed as much as the style Of buy
ing them. Once upon a time, and no
so very many seasons ago at hat. al
the shoes of one season bore q strik
ing family resemblance to each other
Each season brought its poular model
once the Russian Boot for summer ant
then the dainty pump for winter
But whatever it was all the fashion
abel dressers wore that particula
kind Of shoe.
Since thestyles changed each sea
son and each year, one could lool
over a roomful Of women and classif,
each by the buckle on her pumps o
the heights Of her boot. But now an.
style and model seems to be just tn
thing and people favor a particular
becoming one for several seasons i
succession.
Instead of buying a different pal
each season. milady now has "a dit
, ferent pair for each occasion" So, tn
each pair may last several seasons
each season is likely to bring fort
the necessity for everal different pal
and poor fathers pocketbook suffer
even more than in the olden day
when mothe 3 and daughters bough
just the "x1all shoes in the fall.

garden and take care of it under the
guidance Of child instructor. A
strong spirit of competition exists be-
tween this group and those OF more
mature age. I was told by members
of both groups how they assist their
parents in actual agricultural work
in the fields. There was the period
when the onion crop had to be up
rooted. It was a case OF pulling up
onions, hour after hour, day after
day-a weary, tiresome, back-break-
ing affair. All Of it was done by the
children, and when they grew fatiguedei
they sang song. OF "The Onlon,
which the teacher had composed. In
it's rhythm they forgot their weari-
ness and toiled on, lively and Justify.
They sang the song to me and it
awakened many touching reminis-
cences and much affectionate warmth.
Evening came, and with it, meal
time. How many individual wishes
and varying appetites had to be salts
fed! Yet everything goes smoothly.
The children seat themselves quietly
at the long, wooden table. Only one
child remains standing and she
proudly wears an apron on which is
marked the Hebrew word for Cor
derly." It is her day to serve. She
alone has the right to enter the
kitchen and she alone brings the
dishes to all the children. The order
ly sets the table and is responsible
for the entire meal. On the evening
that was there an accident occurred.
One little youngster split some hot
milk and scalded itself. The girl or
derly, the daughter Of one of the best
known Palestinian watchn1en who lost
his life during an Arab attack in
Lower Calilee, stepped quickly to the
child, dried the milk and cleaned the
table, while the teacher, at distance,
Gained the weeping little one. None
of the parents had to disturb them
selves.
After the meal, the children sang
songs from Fichman, Czernochovski,
prominent Jewish Palestinian poets,
and followed the teacher as he chanted
some Chasidic melodies.
The children publish a newspaper
in handwriting. At times the teacher
will give one or two subject-words
around which the youngsters build
their stories and the best are favored
with publication. Occasionally the
clever pranks of the two or three year
olds are recorded The news section
is particularly interesting. Here I
read that the radishes have appeared
above ground; that the children have
already eaten the cabbage which they
themselves planted. The news that
closet has been repaired by some of
the older boys is treated as a sensa-
ton. Tn one Of the published stories
little girl writes: "She always
washed the dishes, cleaned the knives,
forks and spoons, polished the pots,
and kept the kitchen clean" In this
way the little Jewess pictured to her
self the ideal grown-up woman.
This experiment in education now
being conducted at Cfar Gileadi is, of
course, merely in it's first stage. Pal
estine is rich in beautiful hopes which
have not yet been realized and which
never may. I do not place the vic
tors wreath on this school as yet, but
I describe it as an interesting sign of
a very interesting tendency.

By Doctor Hugo Bergman, Curator of
the National Library in
Jerusalem
In the very northern-m point in
Palestine which is now under French
sovereignty but will shortly be added
to British territory, lies the little Jew
ish village of Cfar Gileadi (the Ham
let Of the Gileadite). It is a pity that
most Of the people who tour Palestine
travel as far north as Rosh Pima or
Saffed, and then turn back fearing a
trip by horse or pack-mule over wild
and untracked territory. Yet here be-
gins new Palestine. Numberless
springs flow down from the noun
tains of Golan into the Sea of Merom,
whose shores are covered with bios
soming olive trees. Far in the dis
tance hangs the snow-covered peak of
the Mermon which casts it's shadow
on the green waters. And nearby are
mazes Of wild grass, wild plants and
wild vines. AS one ascends and ap-
proaches Cfar Gileadi, the air, washed
by mountain breezes, becomes purer,
and the climate healthier. Soon one
sees the long, low brick dwelling of
Tel Chai, where Joseph Trumpeldor,
captain of the Zion Mule Corps, met
his death together with other COM
rades, defending the settlement
against the inroads of Bedouin ma
rauders. No more than a stones
throw from here and slightly to the
north is Cfar Gileadi.
Here the former members Of the
Palestinian Watchmen's Association
have made their home and live to-
gether by tilling the soil. Here also
dwell the widows of those who fell at
various places in the defence of Jew
ish colonies. And here also are the
orphans, some 20 in number, for whom
the settlers have established mod
ern school which is an interesting ed
ucational experiment.
The problem of caring for the
young Of workingmen's families, for
the children Of parents busy all day
in agricultural pursuits, has long oc-
cupied the minds Of Palestinian edu-
Gators. That each mother care for
her child is luxury not to be per-
mitted in these parts, where life is
a difficult struggle. All grown-ups
must concentrate their efforts in the
field or in other employment. Neces-
SlCy became Cne mOCHer OIL Cne expert
ment and children's school or vii
lage was established.
A man teacher and woman teach
er were brought from Jerusalem and
all the children were placed in their
hands. These instructors are with
them from the moment they awake to
the moment they go to bed. Only a
short respite of several hours at noon
is allowed to the teachers during
which time the children separate and
go to their mothers who at that hour
rest from their heavy labor.
When I arrived at the colony, the
sun was beginning to set. found
the children going to their garden
plots to water the plants and pull up
weeds from among the flowers which
they themselves had planted The
true joy Of work possessed every
child. Before the youngsters had
finished their task, the sun had sunk
beyond the mountains and the large
white moon lighted their paths home.
