Washington, Jan H. Especial y
Although government reports show
that during the year just ended the
railroads of the country added to their
mileage aside from local extensions,
sidtracks, ETC., some 1920 miles of
track, the outlook for freight conges
zion this year, worse than any that
has preceded, is worrying the admin
istration Following the financial
Hurry of few weeks ago, the indus
rries Of the country are preparing for
an unprecedented period of activity.
Orders that were held up by reason
Of the "near-panic" are being re-
newed and the mills will be forced to
work overtime.
Just how this increased output OF
factory, farm and mine is to be ia
ken care of is one of the gravest Of
the questions that confront the Roose-
welt administration. Because Of the
unthinking policy OF the past, the riv-
ers Of the country, or a vast majority
Of them, are not in condition to re-
lieve the situation. The channels are
blocked with sand and snags make
navigation dangerous. These condt-
tons are to be found even in the lar
ger streams.
An example OF the manner in which
the country Is returning to waterway
transportation, especially for the car
riage u bulky freights, is found in
the report OF the Department Of Com
MERGE and Labor on the traffic on the
great lakes during the year just gone.
Reporting on the tonnage that passed
Pine Bluff daily graphic. (Pine Bluff, Ark.) 1893-1942, 1908-01-14

through the canals at Sault Ste Marie
in 1877, the Department declares i,
1otaled more than 5S,000,000 tons,
compared with 100000 in 1906 and
100000 in 1905. This immense
traffic was made possible through i'm
p1ovements to lake harbors and the
fact that there is little necessity for
the clearing OF channels.
On this enormous tonnage during
1907 it is estimated that shippers
were saved in freight charges
enough to have made practically all
the improvements to the Lakes sys-
tenn This saving IS the difference
in what the shippers would have
been compelled to pay had their
freight gone by rail and what they
actually did pay for the same trans
portation by water. The saving
runs into the lions.
All along it has been the conten-
ton of the National Rivers and
Harbors Congress that an eXpedi
ture by the government of $50.
600. 900 a year would pay in saw
lngs in freight charges almost, if
not quite, one hundred cents on
the dollar annually. In addition
the relief afforded to the railroads
by the rivers would prevent con-
gestion, provide clear railway
tracks for perishable freight and
manufactured goods, and carry the
bulkiest freight to the seaboard at
such low tolls as to give the ship
pers better chance in capturing
the world markets
The inability of American farm
ers. miners and manufacturers to
command a larger share OF the rich
trade of South America has been
due to one factor. That factor is
the nigh charges incident to get
ting the goods-whether raw Or fin
ished-to deep water ports on the
coast. With their limited fac!l ties
for handling the country's business.
the railroads have been compelled
TO discourage the crush Of bulky
and low-paying freight in order to
care for the more valuable mater
ials that will pay higher price
for carriage. This is brought about
by raising to the Unit the tolls on
the first-named class of freight,
Hence the farmer and the miner
suffer.
The $500 miles of trackage add
cd to the railroad system OF the
United States last year are a mere
bagatelle in comparison with the
increased business that expects to
pass over them. Unless some other
and added method OF Transporting
the commerce Of the country is de-

" THOUGH she may not be per-
II mitted to take any part in tie actual
festivities given for dabutante sis
ter or friend. it is still possible for a
younger girl to derive considerable pleas
ure as well as much knowledge that will
be of service to her later on if she is
willing all through the winter so FAR to
forget herself as TO be always on hand 20
attend to those little details which no
servant can superintend and which the
debutante herself is far too worried and
infinitely too excited to think of.
The girl. for example, who would be
sufficiently unsel6sh of her spare time as
TO play secretary to her sister and answer
all the delightful sounding invitations TO
luncheons, dinners and balls would
awaken a gratitude in that older girl
which, repaid when she herself comes
out. would mean the success of many
4 dance. Men friends may he useful
when one comes out. but if she is
not popular among the older girls no
debutante can have n thoroughly sue
cessful winter. After all it Is through the
girls that invitations are given, and the
girl who has unsel6shly thrown herself
into the fun which some older friend is
enjoying will more than reap her reward
in the winters to come.
In the actual making up of the list fol-
the big reception at which a debutante
is to be formally introduced there is not
any real work which a younger sister can
do to help, unless perhaps she will take
large. alphabetically arranged address
book complete visiting list. Such a
book is a real necessity all through life
and is an especially useful possession
during n debutante's first season, when
entertainments, both large and small, are
being constantly given in her honor. In
order that as many mistakes as possible
may be avoided invitations for large and
formal entertainments are now generally
sent out by some firm which makes a
regular profession of such affairs, but
considerable expense can. Of course, be
saved for a new gown or theatre party
if there is some one at home sufficiently
reliable to undertake this somewhat diff
cult and confusing task. Or perhaps if
girl is DESTROYS of eking out her allow
ance she may be permitted to take all
charge of addressing and sending out the
invitations and receive the remuneration
that would otherwise go to some agent.
Naturally no girl should attempt TO
carry out such an undertaking unless her
penmanship is both neat and legible for
carelessly or untidily addressed en-
velope is considered a shocking breach
IF etiquette and is bound to prejudice the
recipient.

Eighteenth Century Mules.

Eighteenth Century Mules.
a n the way of footwear nothing could
4 be more captivating for young girls
| n than the dainty little eighteenth cen
Il fury mules which have come again into
fashion. II is so eminently proper for
the wearer to display them that the
Directoire frocks which women Wear and
which hang long on the floor are coqnet-
tishly caught up bit in front for the
express purpose of showing off the fetch
ing mules Girls who do not wear sweep
ing gowns are therefore at an advantage.
for the length of their skirts is such that
the pretty mules show all around.
The mules are made of satin and may
be ornamented with tiny spray Of how-
ers or a small tulle rosette, or be abso-
Iutely plain, according to ones desires.
For girls the most charming are those of
white, but all colOrs are permissible pro-
vided the shade worn precisely matches
the gown. To dance in them, or even
