Now that budding foliage. pnrling

 oaks, sunny wales and glistening car pets of green are inviting weary
 brains to quit their toll and weary hearts to leave society and escape satiety by seeking the solace and re- freshment which nature provides for her exhausted children. how cordial ly do we echo the sentiment of good Izaak Walton and say with him:

CONCERNING COURTESY
The following expression to its Agents, Conductors
indicates the attitude of The Lsckawanna Railroad G.
interest to ito PATRONS

icates the attitude of The Lackawanna Railroad Company on a subject Of v
to ito patrons:-
The possession in marked degree of any worthy faculty should always
be an incentive to develop that faculty. This Company considers that its
Agents, Conductors and other representatives possess above the average
the faculty of being courteous to the public To those who cultivate and
exercise this faculty the Company extends its congratulations and its thanks
to those who may not have fully appreciated its importance, thoughtful
consideration Of the following is suggested:
First: The principle that underies courteous treatment Of Others is
simply that Of doing unto Others as you would they should do unto you. )
Second: In a highly complex and technical business such as that Of
a Railroad there are many things that you, with your training and daily
experience understand with perfect familiarity but which the public do not
understand therefore, do not assume that the public should comprehend
them without asking questions, but when they make inquiry of you give
them the courtesy of reply just As full and clear as you can make it, and
without any suggestion of superiority born Off greater knowledge.
Third: Words ire only ONE means of expression and MANNER
is quite as important therefore, remember that a kindly and gracious
manner is ct only the sign and mark Of a selfrespectng man, but is to
your words what oil is to machinery in making them move effectively to
their purposes -
Fourth: True courtesy is n o respecer of persons. It remembers
that +" mans a man for a shat" and gives the civil word and the helping
hand quite IS readily to the iILclad stranger as t an official of the Company.
Fifth: Courtesy is not only something the public have a right to q
expect of you, but it PAYS. tn
1t pays in the friends lit makes you personally and as a represent
alive Of the Company. FL
1t pays in minimizing the friction of your life, as we'll as that %-
between the Company and its patrons. l
1t pays in raising your standing with the Company. @
1t pays in the personal satisfaction resulting from having done
the right and kindly thing by your "neighbor." aag
Itis the wish of the management of this Company that all its repre-
sentahves whose work brings them into contact with the public may
appreciate and fully measure up to their duty and privilege in this respect

The penalty for selling without a
license should be very severe and
should be at least double the amount
of the license fee charged In places
where licenses are granted, and in
places where licenses are not granted
it should be not less than double the
amount of what the license fee as
provided by law would be in that
place if licenses were granted.
For all offenses or violations where
the statute does not provide a spe-
