Just a few moments in the office of the Plain- ville Lumber ‘and Coal Co., and one will realize that the present day coal dealer's life is anything but a path of roses. Telephone calls come in almost without cessation and demands in the name of every law and justice for coal are made.upon the unfortunate one answering. Many of the requests for immediate dellvery are met with the answer that there is no coal avail- able, and then the local dealer is described in various terms = because those who called” up a few minutes before see the local wagons delivering coal about thatown. The situation at the local yards re- mains about the sames There is very little coal on hand, and that is all ordered for months gone by. The re- strictions placed on delivery hy the fuel administrator make conditions more unbearable locally, because many are without coal or are so near- Iy that way, that the cold weather is beginning to get under the skin, and people are fervently hoping for relief in the near future. The tvcal dealer says he is doing his very best to satisfy everyone, and he promises de- livery if he received any shipments in the near future. Painfully Injured, Frank Thompson proprietor of the Central Garage is on-a pair of crutch- ag with one leg Injured. Thiz waa the result of an accident in which Mr. Thompson figured early Sunday morn- ing in Southington. He wus drawing telephone poles to the town and while unloading & number of them off his truck, one of them rolled back, bad- ly crushing his foot. When he re- turned to Plainviile, he had Dr. Frost X-ray the damaged member, but no bones were found broken. The ankle was badly sprained, and it will be some time before Mr. Thompson will have the use of his foot again. % Fox Trot Contest The fox trot contest at the Commun- %4 Let this trial offer prove for you at our expense whether more Iron in your blood will make you well and strong Physician tells why you must have Iron to give you Health, Strength, Energy and Endurance. creases the strenrth and endnrance of weak, A Christmas program will be car-lijtical action at Cleveland will ask the energy. mmh{ giving you great force, phys- | nervous, run-down folks in two weeks' time. ried out at the meeting of the Pro-'national committee of their party to| icaland mental vigor, and nrll‘-dncmltheflmn» & i et Reuting e . o S e T vt of e sary| i ey Tria]l Coupon olf .V:ml |John :‘M\lm"\'; tlm Cottage to he conference and wiil recommend ithunut mnh-,;:uzeminfluzfli'e.m mfln up street this evening.
