A FUTURE GREAT.

Two stoutish gentlemen and bright
eyed little girl of FIVE or six came into
the New Haven diner and toward the
table at which the Woman Who Saw
was eating solitary meal. They seat
ed themselves, the little girl opposite
the Woman Who Saw and the gentle
men opposite each other. Immediately
the little girl began to talk very rap
idly In we'll defined New York city &C.
cents.
"What kin have t. eat, daddy? Kin
l have some i-scream, daddy? Wha's
that we're passin', dad-dy?" Daddy re-
piled calmly: "You gotta be careful
what y eat, Rose. You've ben sick,
y know. That's the ZOO" '"The zoo
Have they got cat an a dog an a
billygoat an Peter Rabbit an a.
Ever been t. the ZOO, Rose?'' inquired
the other gentleman, by way Of cut
ting short the list of favorite household
pets Rose appeared to be reciting.
Rose looked ineffably bored. "Sure, I've
been most everywhere" she said.
''How long've you been on the road? p
asked the gentleman. "Since l was a
baby" replied Rose, still bored. "D'ye
like it2' "Oh, like it some, but like
N'York better. get awful sick of
these one night stands, an in N'York
there's always somethin' doin'.'
The Woman Who Saw stared aghast
Was this a six-year-old, or was it a
small reproduction of Mamie of Broad
way? Daddy here said proudly, 'Tell
Mr.. Warning the new poem you learn
ed, Rose" All boredom fed from
Roses countenance. "Are you Mr..
Waring?" she asked. 'Then you're
the new manager, huh?" Mr.. Waring
signifled that he was and asked for
the poem. So Rose recited the words
of that charming ditty, '"The Curse of
an Aching Heart" Mr.. Waring was
properly impressed, butsat this juno
ture the waiter brought them the food
| daddy had ordered-for the men, "a
regular dinner" and for Rose, who had
been sick, a ginger ale and an orange
ice. They fell to. Rose reached for q
radish from the dish in the center of
the table. Daddy was too much en-
gagged to notice her, but Mr.. Warine
demonstrated: II wouldn't eat that,
Rose. It'll make you SICK" "Will it?''
said Rose, reaching for an olive in
stead. '"That'll make you sick. too,''
said Mr.. Waring. Rose leaned across
the table and regarded him seriously
Her voice expressed intense interest as
she asked, "Which-which'll make me
sicker?"
Here the Woman Who Saw found II
necessary to tear herself away. As
she stood up Rose smiled at her and
said, Are you in the comp'ny tooY
The Woman Who Saw smiled back
and said, mo, I'm not in the com
pany." Daddy detached himself from
his meal long enough to rebuke Rose
with quick, "You muslin talk to the
lady. She amt with u.s." and with 9
farewell smile the Woman Who Saw
went away wondering what Rose
would be like In ten years or sore

RAILROADS APPEAL
TO PRESIDENT
The Common Carriers Ask for Re-
lief President Wilson Directs
Attention of Public to
TLoir hoadc
Their Needs.

HClI NCShos
The committee of railroad execu-
tives, headed by Mr.. Frank Trumbull,
representing thirty-flve Of the leading
railroad systems of the nation, recent
ly presented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing the DIFF
ficulties now confronting the railroads
Of the country and asking for the CO
operation of the governmental authori-
ties and the public in supporting rail-
road credits and recognizing an emer-
gency which requires that the rail-
roads be given additional revenues.
The memorandum recites that the
European war has resulted in general
depression of business on the Ameri-
can continent and in the dislocation
of credits at home and abroad. With
revenues decreasing and interest rates
increasing the transportation systems
of the country face a most seriousl
crisis and the memorandum is al
strong presentation Of the candiel
burning at both ends and the perils|
that must ultimately attend such al
conflagration when the flames meet
is apparent to all In their general
discussion the railroad represented
tives say in part: by reason OF leg-l
islation and regulation by the federal
government and the forty-eight statesl
acting independently Of each other, asI
well as through the action of strongI
recent years have vastly increased
No criticism is here made of the gem
eral theory of governmental regula-'
tion, but on the other hand, no in-
genuity can relieve the carriers Of ex'
penses created thereby"
President Wilson, III transmitting
the memorandum Of the railroad
presidents to the public, character
ICES it as "a lucid statement of plain
truth" The president recognizing
the emergency as extraordinary, con-
tinuing, said in part:
You ask me to call the attention
Of the country to the imperative need
that railway credits be sustained and

way, whether by private cooperative
effort or by the action, wherever
feasible of governmental agencies, and
am glad to do so because ! think
the need very real"
The conference was certainly q
fortunate one for the nation and the
president is to be congratulated for
opening the gate to new world or
effort in which everyone may cooper
ate.
There are many important prob
lens in our complex civilization that
will yield to cooperation which will
not lend themselves to arbitrary rul-
ings of commissions and financing
railroads is one Of them. The man
with the money is a factor that can
not be eliminated from any business
transaction and the public is an inter
ested party that should always be con-
suited and happily the president has
invited all to participate in the soiu-
ton Of our railroad problems. -
