think that there were thousand

abolish accident and loss OF life for
ever.
There are. It is true. an abundance
OF safety devices for trains. These
we are testing one by one. Just as fast
as we can. But very. very few OF
them prove, on a running train. to do
the things they do on paper.

1900 years ago, and 1t is peculiar

Eighteen centuries may seem a long
