Petroleum company, an indie
pendent concern of undoubted
financial standing and business
reputation. Neverthe less, the
contract was finally closed with
the Galena-Signal Oil company
in the face of the fact that the
net prices taking account Of
mileage GUARANTEED offered by
the Union Petroleum company
were 81 per cent. lower than
those of the contract made with
the Galena, and that if the bid
of the former had been accept
ed the Norfolk & Western
would have saved about $50, 600
a year.
"As stated above, it is fair to
use the prices paid by the Penn
sylvania in Judging the prices
paid by the other railroads of
the country. The total amount
paid by the ninety-four roads
for which the bureau has re-
turns, for lubricating oils used
on rolling stocks, in one year
was $4,O67,074. Had this oil
been bought at the prices paid
by the Pennsylvania, the pay
ments would have been $780,
219, or 81 1913, 755, less than they
actually paid. These figures
cover railroads operating about
91.5 per cent. of the locomotive
and car mileage of the country.
1t is probable that, taking into
consideration the total pur
chases of lubricating oils lin

ling stock large quantities of
the same oils are bought for
other purposes) by all railroad
companies in the country under
contract with the Galena, the
payments actually made are
something over $2,OOO,O00 per
year more than the fair market
value of the lubricants. In all
the evidence gathered on this
subject there is nothing ia
show any reason why the rail.
roads of the country should pay

&,OOO,OO per year except the
suggested connection between

button of freight traffic by the

DUTY
Prayer Meeting Talk by Rev.
Eldridge.

cools. What shall hold a man
to his task, seeing it 10 Gods
appointment, when there is
nothing but the crushing bur
den left to it, It 10 the voice
of duty, oblivious of all things
that take hold of the imagine
ton and warm the heart. Duty
has spoken in tones direct and
stern. Happily for Us, when
duty has been done even for
duty's sake
1.-The laurel wreath is not far away,
And there is many flower along the way"
In duty lies power, the great
ages in the life are the ages of
duty, when mems minds are
filled with large ideals and the
willingness to carry them out.
A man grows in power when
he goes into the task God sets
him, because he is clothed with
the spirit and power of God.
The attainment of present
duties leads to larger attain
ments, greater ability. Gods
plan for the life is duty leading
up the mountain side, the path
of duty opening all the way
until at last it leads out into
the open at top.
Frederick the Great said,
Noble titles and noble birth
are tomfoolery. Everything
depends on the man himself"
Every year makes it more
clear. Every history we follow
shows that for men and nations
alike the way of power leads
straight by the path of duty.
Beauty, too, lies in duty. A
crooked shrub may often be
Strengthened by placing q
weight on it's tip. In human
life it is extra burdens that
make the life straighter; it is
the trials of life that take the
kink out of the soul. The very
fiber and tissue of the flesh is
Influenced by the spirit work
ing within. You know the
change in the face of a man be-
ginning to 60 wrong. His eyes,
cheeks. lips, finger tips, his
very gait show it. Even plain
faces are transformed and
beautified when there 10 a
beautiful soul back of them.
The child soon learns that it is
not to do it's will but that of
others. We seem always to be
undergoing the shaping of our
lives to the higher will and not
simply that of the social body
but that which controls men
and nations. At last we come
to live happily only if we have
learned to submit our Wills
wholly to Gods will.
Often it seems that the great
plan of the universe is the
cross. From the beginning
God has been the great burden
bearer of the world. Even God
does not exempt himself from
the burden of sacrifice. It is
written in the nature of things
that the higher shall bear the
burden for the lower. The first
lesson we need to learn Is the
Lesson of the cross, the cruel.
fixion of self.
In duty lies attainment.
Longfellow tells the story of
this in "The Legend Beautiful"
Lowell tells it in "The Quest of
the Holy Grail" The pathway
to attainment passes through
the gate of the com monplace.
