The experiments with gasoline
motor cars which the Erie Railroad
has been conducting for more than
two years bids fair to be successful
The management realized some time
ago the need of a frequent and econ
omical passenger service on branch
lines where the traffic was not large
enough to justify ordinary steam
trains and yet in volume to require Il
service of less expensive charactcr
and entered upon Il research whiCn
took both time and money and has in
II measure solved the problem.
Tests were made with cars driven
by steam, electric ana gasoline en-.
gines but so far the gasoline car has
shown tho best results in economy Of
operation and durability. Althougn
the question must still be regarded as
somewhat in the experimental stage.
tho experience thus far gained I'M
.dicatos that the gasoline motor viii

where q frequent rather than q
heavy service is necessary.
The Erie has several branch lines
and divisions where even ordinary
passenger trains are Improbable
that with a motor efficient service
can be given, making the necessary
daily trips. thereby giving the public
opportunities for journeys and at q

EScoRTING THE COURT.
Official Pomp and spIendor In Old
Colonial Times.

Official Ponp and splendor In Old
Colonial Times.
In colonial days York. Ne. was the
county seat TO which the judges and
lawyers from New Hampshire and
Massachusetts often went. and the
court sessions were attended with
much official pomp and ceremony. In
"Old Colonial Houses In Maine" En-
ma Huntington Mason quotes from a
record left by John Adams. who as a
young barrister went TO York In 1774
and who made at that time the follow.
ing entry in his journal:
when l got to the tavern on the
eastern side OF the Piscataqua river
found the sheriff of York and six Of
his deputies. all with gold laced hats
rufies, swords and very gay clothes
and all likely young men who had
come out 10 that place to escort the
court into town."
This gives us a hint of the pomp and
splendor affected by the court officials
Of those days. 'when the judges wore
robes Of scarlet with large cambria
bands and immense wigs and the bar.
risters had gowns and also bands and
tie wigs"
AS the judges approached the shire
towns the sheriff met them with an es.
cort and flourish Of trumpets. TheiI
arrival was announced by cannon, and
the daily summons to the court before
bells were introduced was by beating
a drum.

DIPLOMAS FOR IO
AT DELAWARE
contlnued From Flrst Page


Judge Victor B. woolley. in address,
ing the graduating class, said in part
as follows:
This is a day in which men work.
Some occupations. which twenty years
ago were called trades. are today pro-
fessions. because of the quantity and
excellence of the work 10 be done in
them. Work is no longer viewed 1
necessity. IL has become a duty. II
is no longer dreaded. Il is sought.
Food raiment and pleasures are no
longer its sole objects. Betterment
advancement, excellence are added to
its rewards. Today, a man is expected
to give an excuse for his existence,
either by adding to the sum Of human
knowledge or by lessening the sum
Of human misery. He must add to the
worlds storehouse. either of thought
or material; he must lend "a hand, when
needed, struggle. when he should, fight
when he must. and work even after his
own wants are supplied, for in this
world "only God and his angels have
right TO sit still: the rest of us must
work"
The quantity and quality Of a mans
work in this world are controlled by
mans duty. and a mans duty in this
world is governed by his talents. his
attainments, his opportunities and his
position i'm the community.
Duty to self and duty TO the State
become the dominating obligations Of a
man. who by talent, education or posi-
ton has become the better qualified TO
make himself a better man, and To
make his, a better country. The latter
duty Is not limited TO men who make
profession of politics. but It extends
to all who receive the benefits Of equa
opportunities and of the institution.
Of freedom. No man in a system OF
government such as ours. can shirt
