you can and as fast as you can or
you'll be dragged to the bottom
in the swirl of waters caused by
the plunge"
Weeping women, sobbing out
last farewells! The staggering,
threatening roll of the great ship,
ever increasing! The frenzied
work as the pumps! The snap
ping of the wireless! And the
horrible darkness!
After the women had gone, the
3,455 lifebelts were given out and
the 48 lifebouys placed where
they could be used.
But only the most ignorant
were unaware of how futile these
were. When the giant Titanic
plunged to the bottom of the sea,
she would cause whirlpool that
would drag every living thing
within radius of one mile far in
to the ICY depths OF the waters.
At 1927 o'clock, the water
reached the motor, and the crack
ing of the wireless ceased. The
white-faced operator came from
his machine, and threw up his
hands.
Shortly after this, thunder
storm bore down out of the
North With it came the wind,
and the sea began to lash itself
into fury as if hungry for its
prey.
Probably the small boats, bob
bling like helpless little corks mid
the field of storm-tossed ice did
not see the end.

need for the order of women
and children first"
The men stood aside, and push
ed their women folk toward the
boat decks, where the few, made
quate life boats were filled and
lowered as quickly as possible.
And the women of the steer
age, the frightened, ununder-
standing immigrant women, were
treated even as the first ladies of
the land. There was no distinc-
ton of rank.
The farewell, lighted up by the
faring signals of distress, was a
CHASTITY scene.
Wives and sweethearts, sisters
and mothers, kissing goodbye to
the men they well knew they
never might see again, while the
wounded giant of the sea, stag
gered and lurched like drunken
thing, in the trough of the ocean.
The Titanic carried the maxi
mum number of lifeboatS and life
RATS. But it must have been
plain from the first that,they were
pitifully inadequate.
There were only 20 lifeboats,
and what were twenty boats
among 2,358 men, women and
children?
The passengers were lied to at
the first. They were told that
help was coming as fast as ships
could steam.

little hope there was. For the |

ATING WITH RED CROSS
Has lust Completed a Course of First
Aid To Injured Instruction.

Co operation with the American Red
Cross Society and futhering the ends Of
its campaign Of safety to employees and
the travelling public, the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad has completed a two
weeks course of instruction in First
Aid to injured at terminal points east
Of Pittsburg. The First Aid car of the
Red Cross, in charge of DR.. M. J.
Shields, field representative of the So
ciety, conducted meetings which were
well attended by railroad men in train
service, shop mechanics and other
employees who are liable to injury in
their work.
The First Aid car visited Pittsburgh,
Connellsville, lockwood, Cumberland,
Harper's Ferry, Martinsburg and
Brunswick, meetings being held in the
car, railroad shops, and local halls. At
the % meetings 2, 225 railroad men were
present and were instructed in emer-
gency treatment of accidents, how to
arrest the flow of blood, apply temper
arY bandages and splints when fractures
are sustained, resuscitate the injured
and set up artificial respiration.
The chairmen Of the local Safety
Committee accompanied the car over
each division and with the assistance of
the local railroad surgeon organized
First Aid corps among the employees for
assisting in the practical demonstration
of the relief work.
A railroad man was placed on the
temporary operating table and bandaged
by his fellow employees in the most
effectual manner to afford emergency
relief until the arrival of a sergeon.
Instruction was given in making stretch
ers out of jackets worn by Workmen,
the jackets being suspended between
crowbars, piping and other material.
1t was also shown how to cope with an
injury from electrical shock, breaking
the contact with the wire and rendering
temporary aid to the victim. The rail
road men were also shown how to pro-
perry carry an injured person when
there is no material available from
which to make a stretcher.
The First AID campaign under the
auspices Of the Red Cross Society will
be extended to reach every division Of
the Baltimore and Ohio system. An
itinerary of this kind is being prepared.
The First Aid car will remain in Wash
ington until the close of the Interna-
itonal Conference Of the Red cross. Nav

tinued.
