 Washington, July 2-Postal Savings Banks are gradually growing.

 Ohio ranks first this year as it takes $19s,4 44o of the bonds and South Dakota which takes only $6S0 is the 49th. Connecticut is 32nd on the list and asks for $4,880 in bonds or $40 mere than it asked for last year.

Central Of Georgia
Picture Show.
Show Arranged on Wheels to Cover the Sys-
tenn, to Thoroughly ImstiIl Safety FRS" into
che Employees Minds.

The Central Of Georgia railroad
company, through its, educational
bureau, with Mr. D. G. Boy, assis-
tant chief in charge, has fitted up a
real moving picture show on wheels,
which will travel over the whole sys-
tenn. Its first exhibition was given
in Albany last night. The show,
while very attractive, is not what
one usually finds at the ordinary
moving picture shows. It has train
wrecks and other accidents, but they
are not given with the view Of ma
king one, s hair stand on end, but
are given to the employees Of the
company to show just how the ac-
cident happened and how it could
have been avoided. Not only dothese
pictures deal with the expense to
the needless risks that are run each
day by the average trainman, swift
Gilman and all others engaged in
the manipulation Of trains.
Views are prepared to show the
proper and improper methods of
firing an engine, the proper placing
Of coal, etc. Train rules are shown
and are given a prominent place,
but the thing that causes the aver
age business man to sit up and take
notice are the views on loss and
damage. They show the proper
method Of placing freight in cars
for shipment, and also the same
freight after it has been handled
over a division and through one or
two railroad yards--in other words
after the freight has been thorough
ly shuffled Z"
