new CARS WILL
BE UP TO DATE
Improved Coupler Designed
for Steel Cars for the
PennSy

The new steel cars ordered by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company will
represent the latest improvements in
the railroad car architecture. A num-
bcr Of minor alterations have been made
in tho former design with a view to
increasing the comfort of the passen-
gers. Some further progress has also
been made i'm the elimination of wood
and other infiammable material from
use in building the cars. Aside from
the mahogany window sash and seat
frame thero is to be no wood what
ever in tho cars. out of a gross weight
of about 10000 pounds for the entire
car, the wood in it will weigh only
about 300 pounds. The new cars will
have 1.3OO pounds OF open hearth steel
for every passenger carried.
The feature of construction the fac
tor which will secure these cars
against the dangers of collision, Is a
central box glrder "a inches wide and
10 inches deep. extending throughout
the length OF the coach. To further
insure the car against collapsing its
frame structure is designed upon the
principle Of the cantilever bridge with
the trucks as piers.
A coupler of a new type, stronger
than anything used before. has been
designed for these cars to avoid break
age and the resulting parting of trains
The floor of the car is of magnesium
cement, laid on corrugated iron. The
coach is lighted by electricity, derived
from train generators or storage bat
teries. Forced ventilation will be a
feature of the new equipment Each
car will be perfectly ventilated even
when all the windows are closed. Air
is forced into special openings upon
the top of the cars by the motion OF
the train. 1t is then carried down
through pipes (over heated steam coils
in winter and distributed throughout
the car from openings beneath each
seat.

DIR. KELLOGG And
THE BOY QUESTION
Minister Of Grace Church
Tells of Conditions That
Tend to Degrade

"Our Treatment Of Juvenile Offenders"
was the subject of an address before a
large congregation by the Rev. H. w.
Kellogg in Grace NJ. T. Church last night
The address was the first OF a series on
the subject 1.-THE Juvenile Court will be
the subject next Sunday. After giving de-
tails and statistics Of the lspsing of the
young into degeneracy through careless
ness of parents or the State. DR.. Kellogg
suggested some of the remedies:
1.-THE curfew bell works wonders in this
matter and this is the first city I have
lived in for many years that did not pro-
tect the boys and girls against the night
evils of the streets. Many Of the chill
dren of the poor must be on the street.
No other place is opened for them. The
saloon. dance hall. or the street is the
only alternative and 1 do not know but
we would be working a hardship on our
children to remove them from the streets
early in the evening and yet nothing will
breed crime faster than unrestrained
street life for children.
Surely ordinances. wisely constructed.
and as wisely enforced, would be a great
help to our city.
But, If you would Mend a bad world"
says a great man, you must do it by
creating a right one Fairgrounds, well
supervised. have come 70 be indispensable
TO the morals of our city children. The
movement is none to soon.
Remove from our streets, suggestive
pictures. Control the theatre and picture
shows It would be glad to tell you Of
the observations made by workers in
juvenile reformation as to the influence
of these things.
Il hope that we have no theatre of the
low order any more in this city. But II we
have the influence for bad cannot be inn
puted. This ] know from the testimony OF
the boys themselves
Messenger services that employ boys
are usually destroyers Of moral and de-
cency. I am not competent TO judge Of
this city. but in others this service is
usually bad
" Then there arc bad books and asso-
ciates Clubs and gangs all indicate the
craving Of child life. / have endeavored
to hint at a few Of the evils of Juvenile
life and some Of the causes. What can
be done? Much every way The boy
problem is largely man problem Does
it pay? Nothing pays so we'll It is the
greatest economy in human society The
wealth of a nation is not in palaces of
mills or mines, but in its men. Man can
create these if he is able. If not fit. these
will rot in his hands. They are as trash.
II is economy in dollars to make good
homes for our people. and schools and
Fairgrounds.
"The struggle Of the age for the bet
terment Of childhood is a battle against
greed. To produce men is the guarantee
ofaa prosperous state. To produce men is
the glory Of a civilization and the only
business of the church. Childhood is our
first chance at the sublime task. II takes
money to do preventive work. but far less
than to do reform work. 1t IS the wisdom
OF tho economist TO work for childhood
rather than to support dependent age"
