COAL BLEND ORDER.
TO DEALERS FIXES
DELIVERY METHOD
Substitutes Must Be Sent
First and Billed Same
Way.
TON BUYERS EXEMPTED,
Rigid Enforcement Will Avert
Famine Here, Woodin
Asserts.

In issuing to coal dealers to-day
copies of the order which requires
them. beginning Monday next, to
split their deliveries into proportions
of three quarters anthracite and one
quarter bituminous or other substi-
tute fuel, the State Fuel Administra-
| tion also instructed coal dealers how
deliveries are to be made and how
prices are to be charged.
For instance, a consumer ordering
four tons of coal will first receive one
ton of bituminous or other substitute,
such as steam coal, and latter in an
other lot, will receive the three tons
of anthracite, making the total o.
| four tons. The bill for these four
tons will be split similarly as the coal
delivery was split. The bill will con =
tain one item for the substitute and
another item for the domestic an
thracite and the total will constitute
the whole order as delivered.
| Arthur s. Learedy, local Fuel Ad-
miuistrator for the First judicial Dis
tirct, drew the order so as to exempt
consumers purchasing les sthan one
| ton from the requirements OF this
| order.
Dealers are warned to see that
customers do not eVade the restric-
tons by ordering one ton when their
| allotment would DE two. On the Sec
ond ton, in such cases, the dealer
must deliver a substitute or withhold
the entire order. Tho Fiel officials
think the dealers will cooperate in
enforcing the order. which is as fol-
lows:
Each delivery OF the sizes OF an
thracite known as arate. broken,
stove. chestnut or range coal, where
such coal is used for heating purposes
and where tho delivery consists OF
two tons or more. shall be preceded
or accompanied by a delivery Of not
.ess than 20 per cent of bu.kwheat,
coke. bituminous coal or other sub
stitutes. No delivery Of less than one
ton OF substitutes Is requi' ed under
this order.
To meet the present emeI sercy II
Ia further recommended tnat when
ever possible the minimum or substl-
tues OF IS per cent. be increased and
that wherever practical substitutes be
delivered with orders o: less han two
tons. The support and Corporation
Of the public is essential II the utmost
relief possible Is to be obt1lned under
this order. and consumers are urged,
for their own protection and for the
public good, TO order the highest pos
sible ratio OF substitute fuols.
The order is issued as a result oi
Thursdays conference in Albany, and
applies to parts of Nassau and Suf-
folk Counties, Long Island, as well
as the FIVE boroughs, oil being in Mr
Learoyd's districts. Nos. and 2. Mr.
Learoyd explained that tho order was
necessary because much coal was
lying Idle In and near New York as
a result Of the refusal Of consumers
to use substitutes. He added that II
this order does not do the trick there
may be a more drastic one.
Tho Fuel Administrator made II
plain there is sufficient coal on hand
now so that II the instructions are
carried out there is no danger Of Suf-
fering.

TRAINING
OFFERED FREE
T0U.S.PUP|LS
Students Who Aspire to High
est Will Be Taken by
Metropolitan.

NEW YORK, April 6-Manager
Gatti-Casazza of the Metropolitan
Opera Company has arranged to Of
fer twelve months of operate choral
training Without cost to the student.
the course to begin this Spring for
the benefit of young singers Of both
sexes in New York and its immediate
vicinity.
The Metropolitan Opera Chorus
School Is to be conducted through the
summer instead OF opening at a later
date, as has been the order hereto
fore. Voice trials now under way
are being conducted almost daily and
1t is expected that the new chorus
classes will soon be fully organized.
Edoardo Petri. director OF the Petri-
Chorus School, states that any young
woman or man with a normally good
singing voice and personal presence,
plus fair ability at reading music
Is eligible for this year Of free train
ing and should make application at
once. The many advantages Of the
twelve months Of instruction in
chorus work and Of appearing on the
stage Of the Metropolitan with the
regular opera chorus, together with
the experience to be gained through
this exceptional opportunity, are so
very obvious that Mr.. Petri says he
feels the real musical aspirant re-
quires no further explanation.
Mr.. Petri says applications Of can
didates for voice trials should be
made in writing to him as director
Of the Metropolitan Opera Chorus
School, 1925 Broadway, New York
City.
There's an opportunity for the
American, but he must first be ready
for It. Our own Washington Opera
Company is doing just this thing:
giving the student a chance to be-
come familiar with the routine that
makes for openings in all branches
of the opera world.
First the teacher, for technique!
Then the organization for group
work!

WARDEN DOES
HIS BEST To AID
JAIL R0MANCES
Establishes Postoffices In
Workhouse So Walled Lovers
Can Communicate.

4. WILMINGTON. Del. April g..
Mordecai 8. Plummer. warden OF
the New Castle county workhouse,
near here. believing that love
laughs at locksmiths," has estao-
lished a jail postoffice.
F'lirtations between men ana
women prisoners had reached such
a point that rather than have them
exchanging notes secretly, he estab-
lished the Jail postoffice and censor
ship for love letters.
1T was the logical thing to do"
said the warden. Because men or
women are in Jail is no reason to
think they won't fall in love. Lots
of romances begin in prison"
Warden Plummer told Of his dis
covery OF an underground mail
system" in addressing the Whining
ton League Of Women Voters here.
Notes were hidden in food. in
articles of clothing or carried by
TRUSTEES" he said. Sometimes men
sent notes outside to have them hid
den in cakes and pieces Of candy
sent later to the girls" What
would you do in my case? Wink at
the underground letters?
I'VE have an honor system here,
so I announced there would be a
postoffice in the workhouse and
prisoners could write to each other.
OF course, the letters are censored.
We just use common sense. You
can't blame the men for falling In
love. There are SOME pretty girls
in the workhouse here. After they
serve their time some of them make
good wives for some one"

says she converscd with them on a
visit to the farm Tuesday and left
them happy.
She described the little people
at a meeting of the Chicago Psy-
chical Research Society.
"These land spirits are the dear
est things l have ever seem" said
Mrs. Durand. They were so glad
to see ma.
ITO show how real and impor-
tant they are to me, had gourd
vines planted over the side Of my
cottage because they have such
thick stems. and 1t made a place for
the spirits to sit. They looked so
pretty there, too. The time they
are loveliest is when the spring
flowers are here, because they sit
up on them in perfectly charming
fashion.
"Some OF them are mischievous,
but not bad.
The little nature spirits that I
am privileged to entertain at my
country home are all good and are
much like brownies and elves that
one reads about as a child.
They are dressed very beauti-
fully. Some times the dresses are
silver and some times they are gold,
and some times the ARREST, fairest
material that il like a mist.
THE water spirits keep the water
pure and clean. The land spirits
make things grow and nothing
would grow without them. or that

bit wrong 1 call upon the land
spirits and they make things right.
