Reward is thine thou noble soul
On earth so sorely tried;
Heavens Court, today. thy goal,
Close to your masters side.
Tho long will be our nights and days,
And lonely too they'll be;
We know our Lords are not our ways,
And so in faith we see,
That he who doeth all things BEST
Has called you home today;
Then with his chosen, the elect,
Forever more to stay.
And we your children, here below.
You loved, with love so true,
Shall daily TO Gods altar go,
And our rosary say for you.
Wei ask Of him, and not in Vain'
Our cross to help us bear;
And lead us to you once again.
Free from every earthly care.
For the family,

\ WARNING THAT'S NEEDED

There surely are plenty among car
drivers who will understand the need
Of the warning implied in the sug-
gestions from the State motor We
hicle department, respecting use of
proper headlights. All have exper-
fenced evidence that many head
lights are not in conformity with law.
Mr.. Shorey suggests that every
owner Of a car, before making APP
llication for the 1923 registration
plates, have his headlights properly
tested. He says that an incori Get
answer on the part of the car owner
may result not only in a fine by
the court but also forfeiture Of the
money he has paid for registration.
This would be somewhat expensive
but richly deserved if those who have
INDUCED in the use of the dazz,.ng
headlights continue their practise, or
others following their example adopt
like methods. Headlights which
blind others in the traffic are a
menace and the glaring badge of a
road hog.

COAL AND DIFFICULTIES

Evidence accumulates that, while
ators are complying with the re-
quirements of fuel administration
some of the operators of independent
mines are not but are taking adj
vantage of the situation to protiteer.
The list of anthracite prices at the
mine, sent by State Fuel Director
Lane to the retailers in this State,
shows the small percentage of these
and affords a comprehensive idea of
the injury that is being done by
those who are trying to swindle the
people but also to those who arc
complying with the requirements of
the fuel administration a way should
be found to reach and check these
grafters.
Apparently the only way in which
a check may be applied is through
the Federal control of shipping ia
cilities, through denying the offenders
transportation facilities. At first
this might prevent some of the ship
ments which otherwise might be
made and so deprive the people of
just so much Of relief from the
coal shortage. If people undcrst, cd
this clearly they would, we believe,
put up with the extra sacrifice, as
there seems to be no other way in
which the offenders may be reached.
There are those who believe that
if there had been no coal adminis-
tering, no interference on the part
have been found that would have
proved as advantageous as that
which is now being obtained. But
the question which at once arises is:
would, as now, nine-tenths of the
operators have charged a fair price?
That may we'll be doubted. The
operators who have been fair de-
serve support, merit the relief which
check on the unfair would afford.
Above all the consumers, who are
striving to save and pinch, should
be protected in their efforts. This
would mean eliminating the spec
ulator and furnishing favoritism. a
big undertaking. 1t is too much to
expect all this to be done thoroughly
but we should insist on and support
the effort. Those who offend should
be denied cars; and this should in
! clude those who take this opror-
tunity to ship in cars needed for
coal, the worthless slate, for which
an outraged public is being forced
to pay.
