Too Many Seats in Street Cars?

From the Electric Railway Journal.
 An interesting feature of modern street car design is the almost frenzied effort which some builders are making to get seats into every nook and cranny. Once upon a time the designer of city cars believed that a longitudinal seat on each side was about the right thing. Then the increasing length of rides and higher ac- celeration gradually led to various com binations of cross seats and corner seats. Now we find seats on the front platform as matter of course, while several com panies have also placed benches on ono side of the rear platform. It has even been proposed to install platform seat in front of the conductors collection stand. Some center entrance cars show still more intensive use of seats. Thus in one case a seat actually is placed at the head of each cross-seat aisle directly in front of the circular seat at the end of the car. This evident desire to seat as many riders as possible is certainly praiseworthy but, after all cars will have to be designed for easy passenger move- ment during rush hours until the millen- nial seats for everybody era

It is also a scene where safe distance lends enchantment to the view.
 Colonel Goodnight has done great work as pioneer ranchman and breeder, but aside from this, the buffalo herd and Goodnight college are sufficient to keep the name Of Goodnight forever on the cleanest, brightest pages Of Texas history. And this great achievement is the work of a woman, this simple, short. though powerful story, that will forever form a shining page in Texas history. It is the work of pioneer woman, who cast her lot on a frontier ranch 40 years ago, when the country was new, wild and isolated, when a great educational institution seemed to be about the least practical and the least needed of all projects, who rescued few starving calves when the practical man smiled and remarked: "Oh. who wants to fool with blamed buff falo?"
 From time to time a great many buff falos have been sold out of this herd, these animals going to parks. zoos and for other purposes, but the money 50 re- ceived has gone to Goodnight college. MT. and Mrs. Goodnight are growing old, md I understand that she proposes to sell the herd. and make a permanent and differ ent provision for Goodnight college; but no matter what provision is made the in stitution will be founded upon buffalo herd, the Indians last and most lamented heritage. The mere preservation of that buffalo herd was a great, monumental work. It Is an immeasurable cJntribu- tion to history. It has enabled thousands of people to see a real livvs living buffalo that otherwise never would have seen more than picture. But this woman has done a double work-preserved d priceless species and builded a great edu- cational institution out of and upon it's worth.
