Blue" for the month of May will
be on ADVANCED lines.
The attempt to issue a publica.
ton which would include the we'll
known Newspaper Satirists and
"Funny-men" of the United
States, has never before been
made, as the proposition is a big
one. Nevertheless, they have been
rounded up in this number. and
each man will appear in his char
acteristic style. with photograph
and autograph.
The matter gathered together in
this manner is by far the best col
lection of newspaper wit and hu-
NOR ever published Newspapers
will recognize it's value at once,
and every litterateur will desire a
copy, to become acquainted with
the men who are the best repre-
sentatives of American humorous
literature.
The Book of the Royal Blue -
which has been published month
ly by the Passenger Department
of the Baltimore g. Ohio Railroad
for the past seven years, has pre-.
sented valuable reading from time
to time, and this special number
will class it among the magazines
of the highest character.
Copies of this number will be
mailed to any address on receipt
of ten cents in either cash or post.

GOOD INCREASE.
shown by the X. ~ NJ. in their
Last Report.

Last Report.
Since the Kanawha & Michigan
and the Ohio Central lines have
been under the present manage
ment the increase in earnings has
been of such magnitude as to at
tract general attention.
The earnings for the fourth week
and the month of April are strong
testimony to this point. On the
Ohio Central the fourth week
makes phenomenal showing.
Gross earnings are S99,015 year
ago, or all increase of nearly $780,
600. For the month the showing
is equally encouraging as the re-
ports show 1921, 4T2 against 1920,
COL.
On the Kanawha & Michigan,
while the figures are smaller the
per cent is about the same. For
the fourth week the earnings were
$3s,949 against s2s,5s9 year ago
a gain of over $4,000. The fig
ures for the month are S116,647
against S91, S41. 1t should be re-
membeFed that these comparisons
are now being made against the
figures of the new management; if
they were extended back two years
the difference would be still more
marked. The old Ohio Central
management never showed a month
with the gross earnings exceeding
$225.000. Within three months it
is now expected that the gross of
those lines will exceed $4,000
