fact that they had been able to travel over
10000 miles of territory In a splendidly
equipped train without accident or mishap

arranged schedule must always be regarded
as a most remarkable achievement. He re-

who had rendered service on the train, and
gave all the employees a substantial token
of his appreciation.

No One," said the President. "Deeds to
tell you anything about Pennsylvania or its
resources. Indeed, my work was very much
llghtened on this journey because l
found that all the people, clear out to
Puget Sound. had already found out more
about their country than / could possibly
tell them. Our journey has been accom-
panied with the labor Of travel, but out of it
all think / have gained higher sense of
the perfect unity Of our people and of their
enduring and all-pervading patriotism"
