H6 married in 1895 and moved not
long afterward to his home at Corn
ish, New Hampshire, which is at pre-
sent the summer residence of Presi-
dent Wilson. Churchill was very for
tunate. He did not have to earn a liv-t
ing by doing hackwork, and could
take plenty of time with anything
that he wrote.
It is said that genius is the capa-
city for taking great pains. Winston
surely illustrates this adj
age. Hard work, determination, and
& keen sense of values made him the
successful novelist that he is. He was
ambitious to write the very best he
knew how. Once, when living in st.
Louis, he hired an office and went
down to it regularly as any other
man of business. His writing was
business, and was treated as such.
He wrote "Richard Carvel" at
least five time. He worked from
breakfast until one O'Clock, after
lunch for two or three hours, and
after dinner often far into night.
This, the first of three of Winston
Churchill's novels dealing with AM
erican history, became the most popu-
lar book in the United States. "The
Crisis" the second of these historical
novels, appeared few years after
Richard Carvel,' and in 1904 "The
Crossing" the last of the trilogy, was
The background for "The
Crisis" was the Civil War, and "The
Crossing dealt with the great wes-
tern movement across the country.
Churchill has served in the New
Hampshire legislature, and also ran
for the governorship of that state.
"Coniston" was direct outgrowth
Of his political associations. The
novel is a. story of politics, with
charming love story running through
it.
Winston Churchill is still a young
man, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that his best and biggest work
is still to come.

The Railroads and Prosperity.

The Massachusetts, Public Service
Commission has approved the pro-
posal OF the New Haven Railway to
issue 6 per cent bonds, convertible
into stock, to fund its floating debt
and to provide for further improve
ments.
The commission took the view
that neither the road nor the com
pany merited further punishment for
the long era OF Encouragement and
oyerextension that is known as the
"Mellen Era" 1t seemed to believe
that no matter what had passed, the
road had taken fresh start to-
ward giving good service and econo-
mic management, and the public in
terest demanded that it should be
helped in every reasonable way
Something like this must soon
enter into the whole situation as II
affects the railroads of this country.
We have put largely increased
burdens upon the roads. 1t costs a
great deal TO put into effect safety
laws, liability laws, headlight laws
ard full-crew laws. 1t costs = great
deal merely TO carry out the new
systems of bookkeeping demanded
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. 1t costs as much, perhaps
to comply with the varying regula'
tive requirements Of the di-feFent
states.

COMPLETE LINE OF
TRUCKS ANNOUNCED
BY STUDEBAKER co.

After years of experimenting, the
Studebaker Corporation announces its
intention of marketing, during the COM
ing year, a complete line of gasoline
commercial cars, ranging in size from
light delivery wagons to high duty
trucks. Space has accordingly been re-
served at the New York and Chicago
commercial car shows to place on view
two of the new designs. These models
are links in the chain of four chassis
types which. with varying gears ra-
tics, frames, tires and bodies, will cover
a range of from 1900 to 10000 pounds
The other models are now undergoing
test at Detroit
The Studebaker designs are by AL
bert f. Mats who took charge of this
department more than a year ago
At first Studebaker trucks will be
sold only in New York, Boston, Phila-
delphia, Chicago Los Angeles and San
Francisco, through truck departments
added to the respective branches. Care
full study will be given to each install
lation, and sales will be made only on
basis of requirement. In fact, Stude-
baker will refuse to sell any type other
than the one best fitted to the especial
| job.
The bodies will be built in the cor
| poration's South Bend plants, where an
| experience of more than fifty years has
developed knowledge of load distribu-
| ton and carrying design.
AT the New York show the Studeba-
ker gasoline trucks are displayed with
three electrically driven Studebaker
| types, especially adaptable to work on
city pavements, where radius, speed and
| extreme power can be made secondary
to simplicity.

NEW JERSEY BEGINS
PLACING CONVICTS
TO WORK ON ROADS

The conversion of New Jersey, a
Northern state, to the plan of prison
labor will be of much interest to all
good roads promoters of the country.
For several years some of the Southern
states have been employing convict la
Dor almost exclusively on road work,
but in many of the Northern states the
plan has met with more or less opposi-
ton.
Colonel Edwin A. Stevens, state road
commissioner of New Jersey, after one
seasons trial of convict labor on the
roads of his state, is enthusiastic in in
dorsing the policy generally. In a COM
munication to the A. A A. national
good roads board the commissioner
writes:
"The experiment of convict labor on
state roads, which was proved to be a
success in one week, is only the begin
ming of good road building beyond what
we already have and at price which
will spread out the money of the state
beyond its present confines
