Battles, county fuel administrator, it is up to the people who are coal users to so ad- just themselves to take care of their fuel needs as best they can, owing to ~4the scarcity of coal. Many placed orders early in the spring and sum- “yner expecting to receive the full 4 amount of their order, but dealers "are powerless to fulfill these orders as they call for. Mr. Battles urges all ‘to -turn to wood and do so as soon as possible, as there is no as- surance of the amount of coal to be receivel in Bemidji. In a letter to Mr. Battles from John F. McGee, fuel administrator, he says, addressing dealers and con- sumers: «Anthracite nut cegl is coming up the lakes in very linfted quanities, and is ordinarily 'sipposed to be (OAL SCARCITY United ‘States Fuel administration, Washington, D. C., to announce to all dealers and consumers of anthracite coal where the same is to be used in magazine feed stoves that it will be necessary to use part egg size, the consumer to break up the coal to a size suitable for use in feed stoves. “This is an absolute necessity and might just as well be faced now as later, because the nut size cannot be supplied. I am also instructed by the Fuel administration to say that stove size anthracite can be used very suc- cessfully in base burners when mixed with a small portion of buckwheat. By mixing the two sizes in this man- ner the stove size can be made to cover a larger number of consumers. This information should be gotten at once to the consumers having maga- o governed accordingly in their distrit necessary for use in* magazine feed stoves. I ami’_ instructed by the bution of anthracite coal.” BECIDA SOLDIER DIES =" OF DISEASE. REPORT Percy T.

COL. MEYERS CAPTURES MESSENGER TRAITORS (By United Press.) Paris, Oct. 9. (By Mail.)—An American intelligence officer near Fereen-Tardenois in the Vesle fight- ing bagged two traitors—and in a couple of weeks will have their family. “Tn a bit of woodland northward of Fere he captured a German mes- sen{er\ . piieon that had deserted, mated ‘with a trattor French pigeon and. was_ busily engaged in resrin% a family. ‘The German pigeon stil had the messageé it had started out with.” Rolled "up ‘In a tiny metal tube on the bird’s leg was a message signed “Col. Meyers.” It was dated “9:30 a. m, July 19,” and the mess- age was merely “The situation is un- changed in the past hour.” On July 19, the Germans were in possession of the wood where the pigeon was discovered. At the time the American officer found the de- serters they had built a nest and were three eggs on the way toward ac- quiring a family. - Both the traitors and their family will get the punish- ment usually meted out to traitors. “After removing the message,” said their captor, “I let the pair loose to finish rearing the family. As soon as the family is old enough, we're going to. have some execu- tions—and a pigeon potpie.” UNCLE SAM CALLS ON MOVIES IN WAR WORK (By United Press.)

Even when a shell went zooming overhead they ‘showed no interest. They were fed up on this war. A little gray car chugged up the hill to their camp. Two war work men stepped out, carrying between them a curious long box. “What you got there ?” asked the doughboys. + “An organ.” ‘ “Well, can you beat that!” ¢ “We've come to give you a little entertainment,” said one man. “All right ?” & “You bet it’s all right,” answered a young officer. “This gang hasn’t seen a soul: from the outside world for weeks, Go as far gs you like.” And they did.. y They sang the new songs, just over from Broadway. In a minute the whole camp was singing them. Then they sang the verse of a good old close-harmony melody, and the crowd roared the chorus. Py ) Giew e “But haven’t you men got anybody who can sing?”’ asked one of the entertainers. The responseé was immediate and over- whelming. Sy cag “Sure we havel Oh, you Shorty! Come on, Happy! Give ’em that ‘Perfect Day,’ Billl” S v And then things really started. “Would you know it’s the same gang?” asked the American officers. i For two hours it lasted, and then the visitors packed up their organ. . “Come again soon and send more of your men,” said the officer. “We can’t get too much of it!” - “So long!” yelled the men. “Good luck! Come again!” Wherever there are American soldiers overseas, these organ- izations are -carrying entertainment to them. Movies, concerts, lectures, local talent, even full-fledged comedies with a truck for the stage, from the simplest sing-songs in the woods to the most elaborate program in.city theatres, everywhere free entertain- ment is provided to meet conditions. ‘Why you should give twice as much as you ever gave before! The need is for a sum 70% greater than any gift ever asked for since the world began. ‘The Government has fixed this sum at $170,500,000 By giving to these seven organizations all at once, the cost and effort of six addi- tional campaigns is saved.
