V. held a meeting to perfect arrangements for the contest at the Y. \V. C. A. build ing.

Good penmanship, spelling, grammar, etc.. will be considered in grading, as well as the subject mat ter.

Generals Pershing and Bliss Attend War Council Meeting at Versailles By Associated Press Versailles, France (Wednesday). Jan. 30.—General Pershing, the Amer ican commander, attended to-day's meeting of the Supvame War Council here together with General Tasktr H. Bliss, the chief of staff of the / merican Army. The session to-day aroused more interest than the meetings j of the body, as was evidenced by the | crowd which gathered.

The meeting lasted two hours. Pre mier Clemenceau presiding. General ' Petain, General Ifoch and General I Weygand sat at the premier's left.

CITY AGAIN FACES A COAL FAMINE [Continue*! from Mrst Page.] to their dealers to help them out In the crisis Is cited as one of the fac tors that is Just beginning to make an extra drain on tlio slim coal sup ply of the city. The storm of Monday, which dealt such a body blow to all vehicular travel on city streets, is cited as a factor that in itself would cause seri ous discomfort even if there were a fair supply. It was the same storm that cut down tho city's daily in coming coal supply from eighteen cars per day to four cars a day. Two cars of anthracite arrived in Har risburg yesterday, according to the Pennsylvania Railroad, one car of which was delivered to the United Ice and Coal Company and one to Mc- Creath Brothers. Two cars of bi tuminous also arrived yesterday. Shipment Small Reading shipments continue almost negligible. All the hill dealers re port their bins and yards entirely or almost depleted. Two Hill dealers reported this morning that they only received two cars of anthracite from the Reading Coal and Iron Company during January. A half hundred emergency orders were tilled by the Dauphin county fuel commission yesterday. The num ber of emergency orders almost dou bled over the number of the day be fore. Street II?lil I'p He-liveries Dealers say that delivery condi tions in ttle city are impossible to overcome. They are frankly pessi mistic, and declared they would n'ot know how to take care of a coal sup ply If they had it. The United Ice and Coal Company, as an example, Is delivering the orders they took when a car of coal arrived Monday. The dealers agree that they can deliver' only one-third or one-fourth their i capacity while the streets are ih the present condition. One dealer in the j Hill district, where streets are par- j ticularly bad, reported that all his I drivers have quit rather than at- j tempt to battle through the snow. | On many streets where there are no street car lineiF, tho roads have | not been broken at all, and drivers are forced to halt their teams in some cases blocks from the residences of their customers, and carry tho coal in bags. This consumes so much time that it is a material factor in making the coal shortage noticeably worse than before. Some dealers re port that if conditions continue, they will sell coal only on the condition that they be allowed to dump it on the sidewalks of the consumers. CITY SPENDS S2OO DAILY TO MOVE SNOW [Continued from First Page.] sicner Lynch, superintendent of the highway department, to-day said tho storms this winter have giveft him an opportunity to keep an ac curate account of how much SRCW is removed and dumped in the "snow hole" in Market street over the Paxton creek. A record is kept showing the number of carts, wagons and trucks dumping snow each hour. $3,000 in December The cost of the work from De cember 8 to the close of the year was $3,000 exhausting the remainder of the fund in the 1917 budget. As fast as the gangs of men cleared the streets another storm made it necessary to do all the work all over again. The first fifteen days of January with its storms, cost the highway, department almost $3,000, within SI,OOO of the amount appro priated in the 1918 budget for snow removal. Council on Tuesday gave Commissioner Lynch permission to use $5,000 of the street cleaning fund in order to continue the snow removal, but the highway superin tendent declared he will be com pelled to ask for this money later to reimburse the fund from which it was taken. Clean Way to Fireplugs At present eight large auto trucks and all the carts and wa'gor.s which can be hired are being used by tho highway deparfment. Crossings in the business section have been cleared and work at the fire plu?a haa been started. Trouble is being experienced at some of the storm water sswer in lets, many of which are frozen shut. A thaw is expected to relieve this condition however. Construction of the "snow hole" in Market street near Cameron street, has cut down the expense of hauling considerably. All the carts and other vehicles being used take the load of snow to the holo and dump it. A small force of men is kept busy there shoving it through the hole into the Paxton creek which passes underneath the street at that point. Conditions Unprecedented According to officials connects. 1 with the highway department the street conditions are unprecedented and in many instances roadways are blocked because the Kotueholders cieuied off entire pavements piling the snow up to a heishth ->f eight feet in some places. The series of storms covered the ice on Wildwood lake and the Pax tans dam with snow as fast as long lane? had been cleared by park de partment employes. The expense of this work has practically exhausted the funds available for the depart ment it was announced to-day and it may be necessary to stop the wcrk. This will mean that hun dreds of skaters in the city will be deprived of the only winter sport er.Joyed to any great extent in the city unless the skaters take mat ters into their own hands and clear off stretches of the ice.
