Virginia's quota of sales of War Savings Stamps is yet considerably below what the stete has been asked tojreach, so this »p-peal has been made to all the school boys and girls in the stete to make a special drive for the sale of the Thrift Stamp* this week.

Officials of the fuel administration were recently in New York ciity oonferring with the local fuel administratbr and with the state administrator, which will be called upon to require all lesser industrial plants to conserve fuel to their utmost. Similar action is to be taken in other large cities, such as Pittsburg, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Baltimore and Richmond. Also in Atlanta, Savannah and New Orleans.
In the New England states the government has suggested that quantities of Jire wood be cut and gathered agamst a possible^ coid* famine. . Simihir requests are to go out to otbersec-tions of the coontry.
