that he should raise his hat.

ness in the atmosphere before the car
has carried you far past the person
for whom the recognition was in

And these anti-hat raisers also say
that if you are wearing a soft hat
you must pull it down hard on your

is, therefore, too much danger to be
disturbing your headpiece all the

THE STRAIN ON RAILS
Analysis Which Makes One Regard
Them with Respect. .

SuS" Will
Have you an idea of the strain t.
which a steel rail is subjected today;
Let us consider one for a moment in
the time of it's greatest torture, and
see. The Cannon Ball express is com
ing. 1t is drawn by two, engines. The
largest weighs 100 tons-seventy-sev
en- tons of the weight are carried on
the six driving wheels, which means
almost thirteen tons to a wheel.
Thirteen tons of weight upon each
wheel. hat mean thirteen tons OF
weight impinging for a flying instant
upon a rail surface perhaps no more
than an inch square, and then, NOV
ing forward all the time, a success
sion of whirling blows from a thir'
teen-ton hammer.
If the train is going thirty miles
an hour an imaginary square inch
has but 1923 part of a second In
which to receive the blow, vince un.
der it, distribute the terrible force
of it through it's elastic elements to
the surrounding mass Of the rail,
race itself to help distribute stresses
that are being set up on adjacent
surfaces, and zigzagging back and
forth in all sorts Of ways through the
contest of tn Grail, and then almost
instantly lift it's devoted head to re.
ceive the blow OF the next driving
wheel.
If the train is going sixty miles an
hour instead of thirty, this all has
to be received, withstood and passed
on in one ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
part of a second.
And yet this isn't all that IS hap
pening to the nerves OF the rail. This
is only taking account of the COM
preston strains. There is another
set of strains, for these big driving
wheels are pulling the train. They
have caught hold of the rails just
as your hands grip the rope in q
tug of war, and they take a fresh hold
every fraction at a second. N ten.
dency is to pull the top OF the head
Oh the rail, to pull it all to pieces.
It is the business of the rail to stick
together, head and web and mango, in
every single and separate molecule
with all the ~tenacity of which steel Is
capable. !.
But we have stated only one-half
the tension strain. This strain is re
versing all the time; for while the
huge drivers are plling one part OF
the rail toward them, they are push
ing another part away from them.
This plucking and spurning. hauling
and kicking, tension and compression
goes on continuously. Complete re-
versing from compression to tension
or back again takes place with every
half turn Of a driving wheel, and at
a frightfully rapid rate. The marvel
is that the rail is not ground to
powder.
