Street Cars Make 1t Possible
For P DOR People to H CLONES

II H CRAWFORD. in a letter to The Herald yesterday
/ 1o brought out a strong truth when he said that the street cars
had made the suburbs possible and the suburbs had made pos
sMe homes for the people with moderate means
Without the electric cars. how many people owning coy little
bungalows in the various suburbs of Ell PasO would be o fortunate?
The property close IN Is already built upon or is too costly for the
modest home Of the average man on salary; without a dependable
transportation service, the suburbs were too far from the business center
to be reached afoOt Therefore. except for the street cars, the suburbs
would be impossible a residence places except for those who could
afford a horse and buggy II an automobile. The street cars made it
possible for these suburbs to be built up. for thousands of people to
have homes.
Without the street cars, the value of every piece of suburban
property in El PasO would decrease. for the fair weather" Hanspor-
taion system" that has sprung up IN the city does not operate to the
suburbs except at exorbtant fares; exOrbhant at least in comparison to
the fares of The street cars and the means of the average home owner
The fair weather" transportation companies operate only upon
the busy ~horOughfare. where fares ae certain and trips are quick It
IS only by this method of operation that they can continue their service.
transportation service that serves all the people is expensive. Let the
fair weather" automobile operators attempt to give the service IN EI
PasO and its suburbs that the Ell PasO Electric railway gives daily and
they could not exist a week. The long hauIs to the outlying suburbs
would eat up the profits and more.
The E Paso Electric Street Railway company has been operat-
ing on regular schedules to all these suburbs. all the time. It has been
daily making good its losses on the suburban lines from the receipt. from
its downtown lines. Operating them all as one system. It was able to
do this. Take away from the street car company its downtown patron
age and what has it let. to help pay the operating cost of It's suburban
lmes2
ANY sane EI PasOan knows that the suburban street car lines are
not paying that they cannot pay-n most cases-fOr years. It should
be apparent 10 every Ell Pasoan also tina. to maintain such lines. the
money must come from somewhere. If it cannot be secured from the
operation of the downtown Ines-if the patronage of opposition fair
weather systems IS such as to seriously cut into the receipts of the
downtown lines of the company-whO is there who believes that the
company could long continue to operate its nonpaying suburban lines?
Who IS there IN business in FL PasO who would or could operate a mer-
camille business that was losing money? Who IS there who would take
up such a business and carry it forward, if the original owner could not
make it pay?
these ar but reasonable questions. They are questions for every
FL PasOan to think upon. Is it not to your interest if you live in a

it when you need it
When you contribute your five cents to the far weather" auto
mobiles, what are you doing to help E PasO IN a permanent way?
If this system Of transportation is stable. IS safe. IS sound. Why IS the
regulatory ordinance being fought so peristendy? If you are conduct
ing an honest business, are you afraid to be open with the public? The
EI PasO Electric Street Railway company Is a corporation that Is re-
ponsble for its acts. Why should other competing" transportation
concerns not be made % be responsible? If you nde IN their cars. isn't
it right that they should have a bond posted at the city hall to ndsm-

Why shouldn't the drivers be compelled to pas, an examination?
The E. PasO Electric Railway company puts every mOt0man through
a system of training that often lasts for weeks. It IS forced to do this
as a measure Of self protection. because It is a RESPONSIBLE cor
poraton and must answer for its employees. Why shouldn't these people
who boast that they are competitor" be made to observe some resu-
adOns, too? Why should the owners of the far weather" opposition
transportation systems oppose an examination for their men? Why
should they oppose the placing of lights IN then cars? An old saving
IS that no honest man is afraid of the light" There have been many
rObbeies, pocket pickngs and other escapades in these opposition cars;
you have read of these things in the papers. Why the fight against

The FL PasO Electric Railway company pays for it, use Of Ell
PasOs streets, IN taxes, IN street paving. IN taxes to the state. etc. Why
should an opposition use the streets at will without regulation. when
it does nothing in return for the city?
Ell PasO IS not the only city that has recognized the necessity
for taking such action. Mayor Brown, Of San Antonio. IN a speech
o a delegation representing the fair weather" transportation concerns
in that city, said, according to the San Antonio Express of recent date:
don't care how you handle the insurance policies. whether
indemnity insurance IS carried by individuals or whether the passengers
are protected by policies carried by the association. It protection for
passengers we are seeking. and not a specific manner of attaining that

you the privilege Ofgnakng your living by operating cars over the streets
we expect you to do something, IN return. for the owners of those

PLAN FOR NORMAL

Plans are being made by the com.
mfttee In charge OF the Normal School

paign for the sale OF tickets abou. the
first Of October. The first number of

this part. OF the country this year.
Her coming to Fairmont will be all
event of importance in musical and
literary circles.
The Normal School lecture course
this year will be up to the usual high
standard. which has prevailed in years
past. Some OF the greatest Lyccum
attractions will be presented in the
course. Announcements concerning
the various numbers on the course will
be made later. and the numbers are
OF such value and worth that the man.
agement OF The lecture course feels
sure that the campaign for the sale
OF tickets will be an easy one. The
quality and the character OF the en-.
tertainment is such, and the price OF
tho tickets is so attractive that there
should be no trouble in financing the
course. Referring to the appearance
OF Christine Miller, the patronizIng
public Is informed that Il was the un
derstanding that she would be includ.
cd in the course, provided the general
public purchased as many as Ave hun.
bred tickets.
The management this year will car.
ry out the plan which was made at
the close Of the season last year. Misc
Miller will be al expensive number
and she cannot be included unless the
sale OF tickets outside Of the school
justifies the big additional expense.
There is no reason. however, why
The West Virginian. [volume] (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1914-1974, 1915-09-24

there should not be more than 500
tickets sold in view OF the fine things
which are being provided on the gen.
eral curse. The Normal School lee.
ture course has become one OF the
important features Of the educational
year in Fairmont. All OF the students
OF the Normal School. by virtue of
their enrolment are patrons OF the
course and the teachers Of the city
and vicinity. students OF the high
school. and large numbers Of the citi.
e n have been patrons in the past.
The management of the lecture
course is making plans for definite
and satisfactory arrangements con.
corning reserved seats. It is realized
that local patrons find it greatly to
their convenience to be able to have
seats reserved previous to the APP
peurance OF the different numbers. A
sufficient number OF seats will be re.
served this year at n small additional
price to provide for those local patrons
who wish to be thus accommodated.
II is the purpose OF the management
OF the lecture course not only TO give
full value received In the numbers
presented. but TO provide for the con-
yenience and the comfort OF all OF it3
patrons.

COMB SAGE TEA IN HAIR ID OARKEN II
Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy, thick with mixture of Sage
 Tea and Sulphur

The old time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmoth- CTS treatment, and folks are again us- ing it to keep their hair a good, even color which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest ad- vantage.
 Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home All drug stores sell the ready-to-use pro- duct called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that, besides beau- tifully darkening the hair after few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive; besides, pre- vents dandruff, itching scalp and fall ing hair

GOSSIP CALLS NEW
 SESSION IN MONTH
Expatriate Officials Staying Put" in Cramped Quarters May Mean Sol-
 ons Are Coming Back Soon

That the extra session of the legis- lature will be called to meet in from for six weeks was reported yes terday on good authority, although the chief executive has not made any definite announcement as to when he would summon the lawmakers to complete their task.
 Speaker Brooks of the house, stated after visit to the statehouse. that the special session would be called in about a month or at least by May l. so that the solOns could get at the appropriation bill before the end of the fiscal year.
 The statehouse itself presents a pretty good evidence of the fact q new meeting of the sOlOns is con- templated for the very near future. Mapy of the state officials were moved about and crowded into small Ter quarters in order to make way for the lawmakers, and as yet none Of this congestion has been relieved It begins to look as thought the ex- patriate officials had been put and told to stay put to a while.
