FROM RAILROADS
Roads Serve the People, Whether
They Know 1t Now
or Not.
PRESIDENT HARRls0N'S TALK
Southern Railway Belongs to
Southern People, No Matter
Where Stockholders Live.
HARRISON'S TALK

Fairfax Harrison, the new president
of the Southern Railway, made in
Chattanooga last week the first speech
no has made TO the public since he
became the chief officer OF that great
railway system. He spoke at the an
nual meeting; of the Chamber of Com
mcrce of Chattanooga and said some
things we'll calculated to open the eyes
OF many people. Among other things,
Mr.. Harrison said Despite the hold
ing OF railroad stock outside Of the
territories the railroads serve. and de-
spite the alterations from integrity in
the admins tration of some particular
railroads, ! believe that I am not claim
ing too much when / assert that such
has been the development OF tho rccog-
milton in recent years Of the public
nature and responsibility of the ad
ADMINISTRATION OF the railroads, and such
have been the practical consequences
of that recognition that to- day In every
essential railroad belongs to the com
munities ii serves.
Southern belongs to South.
In this aspect and in {, very real
sense the Southern Railway belongs
TO tho people of the South 1t is not
only their highway To market. but It's
fiscal operations arc part of the life
of the communities along its lines.
at some risk of trcSDaSS upon your
attention I venture 10 support this
claim with brief argument from
statistics. They record condition
which Is astonishing, and, / confess,
astonished mo when ! saw how far
they go along the lines Of tendency
which knew to obtain. Of the
$i03,0O0.0o0 of annual revenues col
lected last year by tho railways in
Guided in tho Southern Railway sys-
TEN, there was immediately paid out
along it's lines at least $4,000, 900 an
amount not far short OF the total col
lections from tho people of the South
for approximately $22.00o,o00 of the
total revenues We're collected from
people outside OF the Southeastern
States--a fact not often taken into
consideration, the explanation Of which
is that Mn appreciabio part of the pas
sengcr traffic of the system consists
OF tho transportation OF residents of
other localities travelling in the South,
and. furthermore, that to large cXtent
freight charges on Southern products
shipped to other localities are paid
by the consignces.

revenues collected In the South? Are
they hurried away to some cavern

The very informing address OF
V. Walden, cashier of the First Ma

Farmers Institute last week. is given
for tho information of farmers and
legislators. Mr.. Walden said:
The movement OF the bankers of this
country to aid in improving conditions

years ago in the West and has rapidly
spread over our country until nearly,

In addition to this tho American

created an agricultural commission, and
placed at its head AR. b. Il. IIarris

to the needs OF our agricultural
friends. and who is to a great degree
responsible for the extent of the work
now being carried on.
Under his supervision a paper is now
being published known as the Banker

every member of the Virginia Bank

the bankers ali over the United States
are doing to encourage agriculture. and

1t may be of interest to know that

opportunity TO DO so. The bankers
would not for one moment presume to

LIVES SAVED BY TELEPHONE.
One Man Drank Poison, and Another
Severed Four Arteries.

Within the last several days two lives
have been saved over the telephone.
Rev. |. w. Lentz, OF Orders, Breth-
rem minister, took poison by mistake tor
his medicine. No physician being here,
his family got instruction from distant
physician. AntidoteS were administered
and his lite was saved.
William Mlonlch, in Pendleton county
tried to cut bullet from the breach OF a
gun. The knife slipped and severed four
arteries in his wrist. He was in danger
of bleeding to death. DR.. Meyers, at
Oak Flat, six miles away, gave inStruc-
tons oveF-the phone. Another life was
saved. Mr.. Mfonich is 76 years old.
So daily are valuable lives preserved
and saved by the use OF the Jefferson
County Telephone.
Is your wife'S life valuable to you ?
Do you want to preserve your children's
lives? Is your oWnlife valuable to your
self or family?
DO you want to make paying invest

Wall, who sits in his country home and
talks to Chicago. Install a Jefferson

mum. Meet me at the end OF the year
and say, "GetZendanner that phone did
not pay me, take it out, give me your

PLIGHT Names of Birds.

Many of our birds are often called, even
in books, by names which are misleading,
saws St. Nicholas. The average young
bird student really knows more about
birds than the folks who gave some OF our
birds their names. While these birds
were as yet without English those
those first suggested by Tom, Dick or
Harry would naturally "siick," especially
if the names were reminders OF the birds
the early settlers had known across the
sea. But the "msfitting" names are by
no means all due 10 this cause, as we
shall see.
meadow Lark" is an example OF one
kind OF misnaming. The real American
representatives OF the European larks are
ourhornedlarks These are much smaller,
more quiet and less snowy birds than the
big starlings hence they failed TO attract
attention. But these staringS 1.-THE open
meadows, with their habit OF singing on
the wing, sometimes as they circled TO
alight. suggested to the people, however
remotely, their beloved larkS; SO they
were called meadow larkS.
"Robin," as applied to our rudy
breasted thrush, is another example, but
a less serious one. Even 10 this day, one
occasionally hears our bird called red
breast" as was done by the early colon
lists on account of the rudy colorlng
which il had in common with the English
warbler which they had known so well as
"robin redbreast."
