Dan Holland. former Chicago Great
Western operator in this city, has taken
the night job in the local Office again
after an absence from the city of nearly
a year. Mr. Holland has been III at
Des Moines since last March and is
just able to be on duty again. Prior
to his illness he worked in the Des
Moines office of the company. Gus Pc
tiers, who has been on the night desk
here for the past few months has re-
turned to Boone in the hopes of being
reinStated to his former position as
Northwestern dispatcher. Peters was
unfortunate last April in that he failed
to inform the conductor of fast mail No
10 that there was a soft piece of track
one mile west of Ames, after it had been
reported to him by freight crew. The
result was, it will be remembered, that
No. 10 was ditched, and one tramp
killed and several mail clerks were in
iured ]. ]. Griffin, of Des Moines, clerk
in charge, who, by the way, is broth
er- in law of Holland, is still unable to
resume his work.

oysters from Connecticut, where they raised
unmolested during the R-less months. Even when
the season opens, some still small IN size
