PREPAREDNESS

The value of being prepared is of the great m- pressve lessons learned from the present devastating war in Europe.
 Whether not agree with the motives which actuate Germany in the struggle, not help but admire the remarkable spirit demonstrated in the face Germany prepared, the result of policy fixed forty years ago.
 James J. Hill the great developer of the Northwest asserts that is wanton waste But the waste is going in Europe We, of the United States and of the South in particular should be prepared to plenish that waste
 The L. & is vtally interested, and anxious to inn press the necessity for preparedness all the people, There is of necessity going to be demand made upon the territory served by the L. & N. for cotton food stuffs and every known necessity not to speak of many comforts
 Those of the people who are prepared to supply the demand are the who will reap the benefits
 The L. & N will benefit to the extent that the peo- pie supply the demand, because the L. & N. will be prepared to supply every facility demanded by the traffic. There would be for the people to pre- pare to supply the demand if the L. & N. was not prepared to supply the transportation.
 In order to supply the demand the L. & N must maintain it's present high standard of road bed and rolling stock The L. & N. must continue to operate safe and fast schedules, that the products of the territory will be able compete in time of delivery with the products of other territories.
 The L. & N has no idea when this demand will make itself known, just the nations of Europe and Amer ca had idea when the world would become in- voved in
 But the L. & N hopes for the sake of humanity that the time of peace industry and prosperity not far distant.
 In the meantime the L. & N. will work with and for the people bring about conditions here at home as nearly mutually satisfactory is possible
