Christian life for more than a year, he
said. and during that time he believed
he had had more peace of mind and a
better realization of the meaning of life

stories about railroad men, especially
conductors, and told of their inclina-
ton to use profane language when they
received the wrong way bills, or re-

was confident that since he had turned
