Who is this switchman, who has
SO abruptly intruded upon our con-
venience to the depletion of our
coal bins and meat larders? What
manner OF man Is he? What does
he do? What does he want?
AS II has become painfully evil
dent within the past few days that
the switchman is an important fac
tor in our everyday life, the general
thought naturally turns to him in
quisitively. Most OF us have caught
stray glimpses of the switchman;
perhaps through the window Of
passenger coach we have seen him
some dark, wet night, lantern in
hand, clinging with some strange
prehensile faculty to the side of a
box car. He fitted quickly from

signals.

To get down to the real facts Of
the switchman's existence, he
works 10 hours day at the most
dangerous OF railroad occupations,
and receives $500 for 1t. Every
day that switchman works, he
