CLEAN THE FURNACE H AND BUY COAL NOW United States Fuel Administration ,/' Asks North Shore Residents Tp . ,;..,,,;, Be Prepared For- ^|ntejr, ^||^ HARD „JJpAL IS ws. icARCE persons Who Have Not Put In Fuel '! Supply Are Requested To Buy f^llHI; Soft' Coal at Once gf|J|fIf|! 2| The United States Fuel Adminis- tration calls the attention of north Shore residents to the following facts and asks their co-operation in order to save themselves the inconvenience Of being without heat during the coming winter: J Every furnace should be thorough- ly cleaned, especial attention being given to the stove pipe and the chimney. All leaks in the chimney, ^whether in brick-work or otherwise, should be sealed up tight. If the ^Stove pipe is rusted out, have it re- placed with new. v. Clean Heating Plants ^S9#|i Have the furnace, hot water, or >}steam house plant thoroughly clean- sed out and any repairs that are nec- |«ssary made at once. There is a ;|big scarcity of labor and wherever :^it is possible the owner should supply Jfthe labor himself for this cleaning ;|and for the repairing as far as pos- sible and not depend upon the promises of the plumber or furnace Jmen. There is a big scarcity of hard coal, land while some people were fortun- ate enough to get their supply of '•hard coal early in the year, the short- age at this time makes it necessary ■for the Fuel Administration to di- vide what little hard coal is coming ■to Cook County to the extent that inot more than one-third of the year's J requirements can be delivered to ;;each consumer now. It will be nec- essary for those who have not re- ceived any fuel to order from their dealers their supply of soft coal im- | mediately. Because there will not be ""Vx, enough hard coal to go around, we ^sgfurge that those who have not a full :?^0 year's■ supply, put in Illinois soft coal Sjlat least equivalent to one-third of ■:-'::1?|ij their last year's supply. %ig '^%y-k How To Buy Soft Coal «** ': - If you have never used soft coal r'-and do not know what size to order,. :| the best way to estimate it is to take that size of soft coal nearest to or the size larger than the hard coal you have used in the past. It takes about 1 1/3 tons of soft coal to do the work of 1 ton of hard coal, and it should be ordered on this basis. It must be borne in mind that the supply of the prepared sizes of Illinois soft coal is not over-abund- . ant at this time, and those who procrastinate and delay in placing their order will find themselves later on without any fuel and unable to get it. :.;,^ CHRISTIAN SCIENCE WELFARE HOUSE iltflllll 100 AUTOS SOLD BY BRIDGES THIS YEAR WAS 50 CARS SHORT ;;:,We north ": By C. E. Bridger'""'^""^ wish to sincerely thank the shore residents who have lib- erally patronized us the past season. We have sold over 100 automobiles this season, which is the best year we have had, and we could have de- livered at least 50 more cars had it been possible to secure them. The following have been fortunate enough to secure new cars in the past few days: V;.;'};':,: .;■>; Perkowitz & Brother, Evailston, Buick little 6 touring car and Buick delivery car. E. G. Fellenius, Dodge Brothers de- livery car. H. M. Anning, Winnetka, Buick 6 roadster. Dr. C. A. Sweeney, Evanston, Buick 6 roadster. S. A. Wheelock, Wilmette, Frank- lin touring car. C. W. AUen, Evanston, Franklin sedan. R. R. Hawxhurst, Evanston, Dodge Brothers sedan. LONDON, England--On August 1, dispatch to The Christian Science as already announced in a cable Monitor, the Christian Science Wel- fare House, for the use of the allied forces, was opened at 112 Eaton Square, London S. W. 1. Week after week fresh contingents are being added to the vast American Army already transported across the At- lantic; consequently thousands of soldiers and sailors now find a temporary home in the little island from which their forefathers set sail in quest of liberty three centuries ago, The Welfare House is primar- ily intended for the convenience of those officers and men of the United States Army and Navy who are in- terested in Christian Science, but a welcome will also be extended to any sailor or soldier who desires to come. :^y ■';;;;:' The Christian Science Welfare House is situated in a convenient center, close to the American Em- bassy and the busy thoroughfare around Victoria Station. Various bus routes pass close by, and tube and underground railway are easily and quickly reached, but the creeper- clad house itself stands in a wide, sunny square, where spreading plane trees cast a cool shade in the long, hot summer ^^ys-^^^.'MM:^<M^W't The house is designated to help arid befriend in every way the men of the allied forces. It is actuated by the desire to do everything to make the men feel as much at home as pos- sible. The reception rooms, it is hoped, will provide an accessible place where friends can meet, while for the convenience of the men an information bureau will be open from 10 a. m. till 6 p. nu, and a re- gister will be kept of the addresses of those who let rooms or take in boarders. The bureau will also be prepared to make arrangements for those officers or men on leave who wish to spend a quiet time in the country, while for those anxious to see something of the sights of Lon- don expeditions to interesting parts of the city, including picture gal- geries and museums, will be plan- ned, and the bureau will always be ready with the names of hosts and hostesses willing to invite officers and men, singly or in small parties, to their houses, so that all who desire may share the social intercourse that can only be enjoyed in the midst of home life. The Christian Science Welfare House, too, has reading and writing rooms, in the quiet of which the men can make themselves at home with their books and papers, or can sit and write their letters undisturb- ed. A certain number of bedrooms will also be available at the Welfare House, to provide sleeping accom- modations, at a reasonable price, for men staying in London, and break- fast will be provided at a moderate charge.--The Christian Science Moni- tor.

PHONE L44-2tc HOUSEHOLD FURNITURE TELLS HOW STUDENTS WILL BE INDUCTED WAR PERSONAL Mr. and Mrs. Edward Heinzen, 1515 Washington avenue, received a telegram Sunday* evening from their son Matthew, who is at Camp Mc- Arthur, Texas, in which he stated that they had received orders to the effect that they were to be trans- ferred to another place. Give Jellies And Preserves The Woman's Corps of the Wil- mette Guard, 1105 Central avenue, will be glad to receive donations of Jelly and Preserves for the Base Hospital, Camp Grant, Rockford 111. How to enlist in the students' ar- my training corps has been a fre- quent question asked of the local draft board, but until today no in- structions have been received from the government and the applicants could receive no definite information. Instructions just received from the provost marshal general's office say that after the men enlist in college their names are to be sent to his office. Then a competent order for the individual induction of each man will be sent to the local draft board in his college town. A separate or- der will be sent for each man, and it will bear his name. He will then be notified by the board to report and either accept or decline induction, and every man accepting will be in- ducted separately, according to the method used up to date in the army. If a man is from out of town, his papers will be obtained from his local draft board, filled out as far as possible by the board in his college town, and completed by the universi- ty authorities. Two copies will be made one to be sent to the students' own exemption board, the other to the provost marshal general's office, after which the man's induction will be complete.
