TO OUR CITIZENS, - The coal dealers and your local Fuel Committee have received word from the Fuel Administrator for Ontario, Mr. R. C. Harris, City Hall, Toronto, that the anthracite coal allotment for Goderich has been reduced by one thousand tons. The outlook is none too good, as the amount now assigned to tis is about what we received last season, 1917-18, and you all remember too well our experiences then. This allotment is based on the mutual understanding made by the United States Fuel Commissioner and our Canadian Fuel Controller, so there is no use saying that if the dealers or the town officials had been more energetic they could have got more hard coal. Our concern is to see that we get our full allotment, and all the pressure that is possible is being exerted on the coal companies by the, Fuel Administrator to deliver us our share. The cutting of our supply means that we shall have to snake up the deficiency with soft coal or wood. The amount of soft coal required will be 1,500 tons, with a greater amount of wood if it is used as an equivalent. It will be absolutely necessary that each household burn at least a ton of soft coal or a like amount of wood, and to this end we advise you to place your order now and accept delivery of a small amount of either soft coal or wood. We shall need the hearty co-operation of every citizen with the dealers and your Committee in order that we may avoid an acute situation such as we had last winter. We are instructing the dealers that they are not to supply the full requirement of hard coal to any one customer and in supplying hard coal to insist that the customer take at least a ton of soft coal or a like amount of wood. The dealers have on hand ample serppplies of soft coal and wood, The town will have wood for sale about December 1st. Hoping that we may have the co-operation of all citizens, we are, Your FUEL COMMITTEE: J. C. LAITHWAITE (Reeve). ' R. C. Po4TLETHWAITE (Chief of Police). E. R. Wtot* (Mayor), Chairman.

ROBERTSON, -1 thought per- haps you night be interested to learn of a somewhat urriaue gathering of Goderich men out here this week. Myself and Pte. Geo, Brazier were sent frpm the Bat- talion to attend a school of instruction a gdod distance behind the Tines. and one evening this week we rounded up a dozen of Godench men. They were Sgt. Wm. Dunnage. who is on the staff of the school, Ptes. F. Bates, H. Hunt, J. B. McLean. J. Weise, ;W. Peachy, E. Callow. B. !Palmer. Wm. Feagan and J. Bell. who with ' Brazier and myself made the dozen. You 1 may be sure we spent a very pleasant hour together. Ptes. Feagan and Bell had recently come from hospital and are wearing a wound stripe. Both are looking somewhat thin. All of these men with the exception of Sgt. Dunnage were originally in the 161st Battalion. The following day Corp/Geo. Fist er, also of the 161st, put in an appearance. He is in charge of some of the sanitary work at the school. Since then Pte. Peachy has been sent to hospital. sic.,. There has been a fearful lot of rain here this week and it must have been most unpleasant for the boys up in'the line. 1 had .: good taste of it the night se left the line. It was raining' in good style then and we had a fr.ur hours walk over torn - swept roads and the r.ieht war terribly dark, so that we welcomed Fritz's star shells to let us see our way occasionally. I believe our afualtiee have been Iight, although some raiding has been done. Very few papers are arriving. 1 re- ceived one this week dated May 27th. They will probably arrive by the dozen some weeks hence. With remembrances from the boys here to yourself and the people of Goderich. Yours sincertfly, ERNEST A.
