ing stations until she is letter perfect
in her route
One Of the few complaints register
ed against the women was their lack
Of appreciation Of the value OF time.
They find it difficult TO realize that the
matter Of being a few moments late
in signing on or in taking up relief
is serious. The companies are trying
TO overcome this difficulty through in
spectors
One Of the most frequent causes for
this delay. it was reported.was that
"a woman conductor had something to
say TO another woman and would not
so on duty Till she finished IT,"
At the Glasgow school. while one
woman is being put through her reci-
tation the others listen. This ac-
quaints them with all routes in the
city
II was agreed that women between
"a and 35 make the best conductors.
Their influence has been all for the
best Even on the toughest and
toughest" routes they can control OBJ
streperous passengers better than the
mon conductors.
So successful has been their work
that the congress decided TO ask the
county council OF London 10 remove
its ban against their employment
London is the one city in the British
Isles that so far has held ont AGAINST
them.

UNDENlABLE TRUTH
Written for EVENING JOURNAL
By JAMES I. cRoZIER.

Time and tide will wait for no man,
This includes all women, too;
The old. the young. tho strong, the
feeble,
Else this saying were not true.
Here today, and gone tomorrow,
Often is this saying true;
You cannot know in carly morning,
What the day may bring to you.
How very often are the emblems.
Seen each day which say beware.
That time is passing. tides arc run
ming.
Warning all they must prepare.
How quickly can our thoughts ny
backward.
To the days when We were youth
But our gray hairs. and the wrinkles
Make us understand the truth.
That We are nearing end of journey
Time and tides with us near done:
How will il be. my brother. sister.
With yOu then. when race is run.
Will you be safe when last day COM
eth,
And you Stand before His Face;
'Tis best you say II now and truly,
I'm a sinner saved by grace
Think Of It. my brother. sister
Fer that last day shall appear;
While in health Won may he taken
From the ones TO you so dear.
Blessed thought how sweet to know IL,
There's a balm to all will come:
When we give our hearts to Jesus.
Who will bring us safely home.
