"The inefficient are necessarily the
disobliging," said A. Munsey, apropos
of a political leader who had failed.
"A middle,aged failure got a sum-

mont dainty, at this same time laying a

Earnlno COLLEGE Expenses,

Miss Florence McArdle, a senior at
Boston university, is in charge OF the
girls department of the students
employment bureau. This year about
one hundred women students have
been supplied with work. Boston uni
versity was one Of the first colleges to
realize the value Of an employment
bureau for its students.
Miss McArdle says that one OF the
best ways for girls to work their way
through college is to get into fam
lily where in return for performing
certain household duties they get
room, board, laundry and car fares.
Never before have SO many girls been
working their way by this method as
this year, and the supply was not
equal to the demand. Miss McArdle
is working her wsv through college
and in return for a specified number
Of hours at the bureau gets her tut
ton free. Before taking up this work
she had tutored, done Office work and
many other things to support herself
while getting education.

manual block system, even the most
modern system of fixed signals does not
guard against nor provide any protection
against failure Of enginemen properly to
observe and obey the signal Indications.
On the matter of f1agmen first assist
ing passengers and then going to the
rear to protect the train the report has
this to say.
while the trains were operated under
the automa tic block system, under the
rules protection by flag was considered
necessary; that being the case, the flag
man should not be required to perform
duties which would prevent him
from properly protecting h train. The
practice of requiring the fiagman to as
sist in unloading and loading passengers
before protecting his train Is not con-
ducive to safety and should be discon-
tinued. On this train there were a con-
ductor. q brakeman and train porter.
who should have been able to perform
his work in ample time without requir-
ing the assistance of the flagman. Had
the rules required the fagman to be sta
toned at the rear end of the train, and
at regular stops of more than one min
ute duration to go back with flag and
torpedoes to protect the train. in this
case the f1agman could have gone back
to a point east Of signal No. 2219; had
he done SO and placed torpedoes on the
rail at that point the collision probably
would have been averted."
