DISCUSS MOTOR CARS.
Southern Railway Figures on Using
Them at Several Points.

Washington, March 2S.-The officers of
the Southern Railway company held
special meeting here today, at which the
subject of the use of motor cars was dis

the branch lines, where the passenger
traffic Is small and the revenue cores
pondingly light. The use of such motor
cars. it was pointed out, would be es-
peclally advantageous between Charles
ton and Summervile, S. c.. Aiken and
Augusta, Ga; Brunswick and Jesup, Ga;
Winston-Salem and Greensboro, N. c.;
University Station and Chapel Hill S. c.,
and Richmond and West Point, Va.

People get the crusts.

Well, 1 guess not.

All tommy rot.

When the trusts will have to sing
A very different song.
