EDWARD Sheehan, a student at VIII
la Nova college, in letter to his
father. Michael Sheehan of Hallowell,
says that at the Lebanon Villa Nova
game last week, two scouts from the
Athletics were present to watch the
work of Wolfe, Lebanon player and
that of Chick" Meader, Villa Novas
pitching ace and former star mounds
man for Hallowell High. After the
game was over, it was generally ru-
mored about the campus that Meader
would be given a tryout with the
Maclmen after his schooling was
over.

IMPORTED COAL AND STRIKE

From the Scientific American.
 Not many of the people of the Att lantic seaboard cities are aware how much inconvenience. if not distress they have been spared during the past few months of the strike, thanks to the large amount of British coal which has been imported. The total importation. when the last of 1t has reached our ports, will have been about l, ,500,000 tons. During the re- cent British strike the same benefits in the way of keeping the gas and the electric light and heat companies going were conferred by the equally large amount of coal which was shipped from the United States to Great Britain in the five months from April to August. It is a curious coincidence that the total shipment in each direction was approximately the same, the British receiving from us a total of 1.44s.622 tons.
 Of the total British importations two-thirds was steam and onezthird gas coal and the public of our east ern cities and particularly of New York, are indebted to the enterprise of the importers, who, when the strike threatened. made arrange ments for immediate shipments of coal on a. large scale. These impor- tatiens kept pace fairly well with the demands of our public utilities. and served to ti1e the seaboar l cities over what threatened to be a most serious emer eHey. Had it not been for this, not oaly would city transportation have been very much curtaiied, but the public would un- doubtedly have been rationed during the past few months, both for cleo tric light and on gas for cooking. The magnitude of the operations is shown in the case of single well known concern, which. early in July chartered every suitable ship thai they could secure, and brought over, and are still bringing over, some 500,0 ,000 tons.

the cool October wind touched her checks. she realized that her retreat WAS just in time. She was very weak.
 The woman in the library picked up the pipes and crushed them pas sionately to her bosom, laughing and crying. and held them there until she heard the faint warning of the auto mobile siren as the car turned out into the highway.
 "Home!" Selma drew the robes about her and huddled into a corner.
 Then she laughed. Gambler Torn as her heart was, dull as the future seemed to be, her sense of humor-- ironic humor was as keen as ever.

TO HEAT YOUR HOUSE

From the Delineator.
 Before you order your heating sys- tenn, take into account the size, shape, exposure and location of your house. Rooms with high ceil ings need more heat than low ceiled ones. and eight or ten times more heat escapes through window glass than through well built wall. The waste through skylight Is even greater. since the warm air rises against it. A loosely constructed house, of course, requires an espe- cially powerful plant. It is wise to consult an architect or an engineer who makes a speciality of heating and to get him to figure just how big system you need and to make exact plans and specifications for one that is guaranteed to do the work. Do not accept competitive bid made solely on price basis. Do not in- stall certain type of heater on the advice of friend. His house may be different from yours. A long rambling house that covers much ground is harder to heat than a square, compact one. Make a special study of the different methods of heating before ordering heating plant for this type of house. Be sure to get large enough furnace. boiler and radiators.
 In buying heating plant, be sure to say what kind of fuel you ex- pect to use, as most furnaces or boii- CTS will give much better service If they are especially designed for the fuel that will heat them.
 Hard or anthracite coal is usually a most satisfactory fuel. wherever it can be bought reasonably. In some sections it is cheaper to use soft or bituminous coal, coke, Ignite or wood When heater uses any of the faster burning fuels. of course it has to be fired more often. Where cheap natural gas is available, it makes a most convenient fuel.
 With d heat regulator or theemo- stat, it is never necessary to tend the gas heating plant.

BARRELS OF GOLD

John Oakwood, in Forbes Magazine.
 From the point of view of Europe, the depletion of the gold reserves there was not due. primarily OF in major part, to the reduction in the annual world output of gold. It was chiefly due to the loss of gold to the United States through commercial transactions during the war and post-war period when Europe was not producing sufficient goods or rem dering sufficient services to pay for her purchases in this country.
 How great is the supply that has come to the United States is shown by the fact that this country's stock now amounts to over $3,775, 900 900 or more than 70 per cent of the total monetary stock of gold in the world.
 The heaped-up gold in the United States is estimated to be $1 ,000, ,000, ,o00 in excess of this country's own needs 1t represents. therefore potential gold supply for Europe to draw back as she recovers her economic strength.
 It is, in brief, not a shortage of gold that faces the world, but rather a distortion of distribution that can be corrected only by normal trade and sound finance.
