King Oil has suddenly come in' for widespread popularity hero and King Coal's dictatorship over the Riilihli Indus try is a thing of the past, according lo expert opinion. England's great coal stoppage was responsible for popularizing luel oil All over the country factories, railways, power plant, liospliati turned lo foreign-produced fuel oil the minute their coal bins were emptied, when 1,200,000 Rritish miners refused to accept drastic wage reductions and slopped work. K.iel (dl ciu of America's favor ite fuels but hitherto virtually un known in England, has come to stay, according to authoritative prediction: Rritish public services and indus try will never again be wholly de pendent on coal. Unacquainted vMh (he nlni'dlell" of Installing oil burners, the British people were rather ustoumicu u, leain that Immense power plants could, in an emergency, bo converted In a few days from coal to oil. Thai's Just what happened. When the coal pinch caused widespread embarrassment, luet oil firms were consulted and assured all inquirers big stocks of fuel oil were being held in the country and quick de liveries could be made from abroad to replenish the great tanks. Large stocks of oil burning equip ment were also at hand., Kng'.ind's genorai public was high ly gratified. Presence of fuel oil mean! continual Inn of great lighting and power plants providing Juice lor street car systems. -- Brown's Dutur 3iagev Time Table Two round trips daily.
