A, Coal Facts Nothing is to be gained by waiting. Coal prices will advance at least 50 cents per ton during the summer. How much more will be added next winter depends al together upon the quantity of coal mined and shipped this summer. The law of Supply and Demand will govern coal prices next winter. Should but a minimum of next winter's requirements be mined during the warm weather there will be an unusual demand next winter, which we fear can not be supplied. Of course prices will be higher when everybody wants coal at the same time —-.besides somebody is sure to "get left." If you neglect your coal needs until next fall you may find yourself without coal because coal dealers may not be able to supply you —much as they would like to. No one could foresee the suffering and hardships of the terrible severe winter of 1917 and 1918. No one can say that next winter will not be equally severe. Every householder can aid in preventing a repetition of 1917-18 famine by getting next winter's coal in now. i ' Prudence, foresight and common sense suggest that the only solution is for the householder to get his cellar noiv.

Cotton Men Plan to Purchase Coal by Pooling Orders By Associated Press. Atlantic City, N. J., May 27. Children between the ages of 14 and 16 of tho working classes should have the privilege of working part of the time during their education, according R Dr. C. A. Prosser, di rer-tor of vocational education at Washington, who addressed tho an nual meeting of the Cotton Growers' Association of Georgia here. A plan to purchase all ccal re quired by the cotton men on a co operative basis was presented and a committee was appointed to han dle pool orders for coal put in by members of the association, most of whom signified their Intention of trying the experiment. It was stated by delegates that the cotton crop this year would be much below normal. This was due to de creased acreage under cultivation, lack of labor and unfavorable weath er conditions. Officers elected were: President, D. A. Jewell, of Jewell, Ga.; secre tary and treasurer, P. E. Glenn, At lanta: traffic manager, C. W. Chears, Chattanooga. Tonn., and attorney, Lee M.

Under the provisions of tho resolution which was passed by the House some time ago, the ques tion of suffrage will bo submitted to the voters of tho Commonwealth. To become effective, however, the measure must pass another Legis lature. Tho passage of the resolution was practically cinched after Senator William 12. Crow, Fayette, chairman of tho Republican State Committee niado a plea for the measure, saying that tho resolution presented a plan for the submission of the woman suf frage question to tho voters of Penn sylvania, and that this American principle wns ono to which the Re publican party is committed. "I bespeak Republican aid for this measure," concluded Senator Crow. The vote was 41 to 7. The effect of this speech was to dispell much oratory prepared for the occasion, and the measure was then called to a vote by Lieutenant Governor K. E. Beidleman, presid ing.

Salary Raiser Is Given Sproul Ax Governor Sproul again called a halt on the salary raising campaign when he vetoed a bill to increase salaries of registration employes in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Scran ton. He said there must be a check on "the tendency to raise salaries." The veto said: "This bill Increases tho salaries of certain employes of the registration commissioners in cities of the first and second classes, making the salaries in these cases fiom one-fourth to one-half higher thar. at present. The salary of the clerk Is Increased from $1,500 to $2,000, the stenographer from sl,- 200 to SI,BOO, and others in like or appropriate proportion. "I am of the opinion that these increases are not warranted, and that the salaries as provided under existing law are adequate and suf ficient to secure competent persons to serve in these places. The salaries now paid compare favorably with the pay of servants of the Common wealth generally in like proportions. For example, many stenographers of long experience and tried abil ity in various departments of the State government receive only sl,- 200 per annum. There must be some halt called on the tendency to raise salaries. "Furthermore, this bill contains a provision permitting the employ ment of 'as many other clerks as may be necessary at a compensation not exceeding $4 per diem for the time actually employed." This pro vision might lead to grave abuses."
