Section Foreman Owns a
Motor Car.

The section foreman on the M.
X. & L. railroad, living at Savon-
burg, is attracting some attention
from the fact that he has a motor
car which is his own make, in which
he makes his trips over the section.
The motor car pushes the second
car out to where the men are to
work, in the morning and pushes it
back at night Thus the section
hands are relieved of their most
tiresome task, that of daily pump
ing a handcar a number of miles in
tine morning and back at night.
The Mexican section hands at
lola also have a similar contrivance,
having installed small gasoline
engine on a handcar.

of the nation to the establishment Of
an institution of learning designed
to be worthy Of the name it bears.
The erection of the Columbus me-
mortal is claimed by the knights of
Columbus to be due largely to their
influence and direction. For years
it has been noted that the national
capital did not contain a memorial
to the man who discovered the New
World, and it remained for the or
der which bore his name to have the
matter so successfully presented to
the national law makers that bill
was finally Introduced making an
appropriation Of 100000 for this
purpose. This bill was signed on
March 4, 1907, by President Roose-
welt and in a case in the Knights of
Columbus hall in Washington are
preserved as souvenirs the four pens
used by President Roosevelt, the
president Of the Senate, the Speak
er OF the House Of representatives
and the Clerk whose signatures
were affixed to the document. At
the unwilling ceremonies, which
took place on June 8, over 10000
knights were in attendance includ-
ing more than 1000 knights of the
fourth degree. ~
The activities of the Knights are
varied to suit the needs of the loca-
tions Of the different councils. In
Philadelphia, for example, the late
Archbishop Ryan, who was an en-
thusiastic Knight. was especially in
terested in the destitute condition
Of the poor Italians brought to that
city each year in such large num-
bers. He Influenced the Knights of
Columbus to give special attention
to their needs and the proceeds of

grand ball held by the knights of
Columbus in that city each year go
to the aid of the immigrant Italians
who frequently suffer so much by
Ignorance of the English language.
While the order of the Knights of
Columbus does not pay sick bene-
fits, each council has its own sick
committee to look after members
who are sick and supply any need
that may arise. The insurance plan
of the order has been pronounced
the finest system of fraternal insur-
ance in the world, having grad
uated system of payments that puts
it's benefits within reach of the mod
crate wage Garner. 1t had in force
on June IL, 1912, insurance to the
amount of $93,897, 1000 1t has paid
$500, 206.62 in death claims, and
has assets amounting to $4,0O8,-
