visiting pivot man made two shots
in a peculiar manner.
Although the home team went into
the lead at start of the game. the
visitors fought hard. and as a result
the going was nip and tuck. Rallies
by the visitors brought the fans to
their feet several times in this half.
The period ended 1910 in favor OF
the locals. The Amboyans scored
four field and eight foul goals in this
session. while the Newarkers made
one double counter and eight single
pointers during this period.
During the second period the lead
changed hands several times. The
Newarkers worked with a fine de-
Tense in this session. and as a result
the S~peedways were only able TO
score once from the field. The home
team with a strong defense in the
first period, succeeded in holding
their opponents to one basket. but in
the last half the Juniors took many
long shots and as a result dropped
in seven double counters. Good foul
shooting by Hansen in the closing
minutes of the second half. won the
game for the Speedways.

The Coal Dealer Renders a
Real Service

Dor and his investment in his
business is large.
He renders real service and is
entitled to a fair profit.
IF those consumers whose
means are sufficient to permit
them to buy coal in car-lots
direct from the mines, were to
do so, it would mean that the
retailers costs would have to be
divided among fewer customers
and those who could least afford
it would have to pay more for
their coal.
During the Stringency last
year, it became necessary for the
mines to ship direct to consum-
ers in certain localities who
would otherwise have been COM
PEELED to go without coal. After
paying for weighing and de-
livering, it was found in most
instances, that it would have
been cheaper to buy the coal
from a retailer, had it been OBJ
tainable in that way. |
1t has been shown that the
retailers profits in the territory
served by members of the Cen
trail New Jersey Coal Exchange
are very small, averaging only
Al cents a ton, gross proft-less,

NOAL consumers frequently
~ ask why they cannot buy
anthracite coal in carload lots
direct from the mines, either for
their own use or to be divided
among several consumers.
Aside from expediency and
fairness to the entire community,
there is no real reason why this
cannot be done. But it doesn't
pay in the long run.
Somelargendustrial concerns-a
few of them in this district-have
bought consignments of coal di-
rect from the mines and sold it
to their employees at cost plus
freight.
They have assumed no re-
sponsibility for the quality of
the coal. 1t is not screened be-
fore delivery and the employees
who buy it have to arrange and
pay for delivery to their homes.
In this district they have
saved about a dollar a ton on the
retail price, but lack of screening
has lowered the quality of the
coal and these transactions have
shown an actual loss when this
is taken into consideration.
The retail coal dealer is a
highly necessary factor in the
distribution of coal, especially
to domestic consumers. He is a
heavy taxpayer in his commun-

greatly puzzled because
clocks in one place arc an hour
faster or an hour slower than
clocks in other places. This Is
because Mexico City has official
time and Astronomical" time.
The official time was adopted
nearly year ago for the purpose
of conserving light and power. 1t
set clocks ahead an hour. This
made bedtime an hour earlier than
under astronomical time and saved
an hour of electric light burning
and elevator running.
The saving was necessary be-
cause the city's electric light and
power plants were unable TO meet
the demands made upon them.
But other parts Of Mexico did
not set clocks back because OF
Mexico City's problem and the all
roads had to continue the use Of
astronomical time. This and other
reasons caused many persons here
to continue the use Of the old time
and this has caused much confu-
sion. Unless person definitely
makes an appointment according
to official" time. the persons with
whom the appointment is made
may appear an hour late through
use Of Astronomical time.
