Memory's Day.

st. Valentines is MemOry's Day
For some of us who hold
A bit of satin put away
Engraved in furnished gold.
"ITor one who gives his heart to you
And VOWS forever to be true
st. Valentines is Memory's Day.
We watch the rising sun,
With lips that vainly strive to pray
Their Lord, "Thy will be DONE
Love was so sweet, so brief it's
state,
And it is hard, so hard, to wait.
St. Valentines is Memory's Day,
Yet like to that above,
Is blooming by an earthly way,
A long remembered love.
And tender are the eyes that shine
Tear-gemmed, above valentine.

STILL REBArINc

The not infrequent assessments OF
fines against railroad companies for
giving rebates and against shippers
for accepting them, suggests that in
spite of laws against it, rebating is
still practiced to a harmful extent

load rates. Three railroad companies
involved in this and other yialotions
of the law. and two other shippers,
drew heavy fines at the same time.
Perhaps I am over-suspicious, but l
have a notion that the big packers
quite regularly ship on terms that are
not available to all. Certainly the
terms upon which the railroads handle
the private refrigerator cars OF the
packing companies are terms that
would not be available, for example,
to a cooperative packing house that
did not own any cars. Railroad ia
voritism is a breeder of monopoly.
If one concern can ship on terms more
favorable than others it soon can run
it's competitors out. To overcome the
danger of railroad fayoritism is one
of the strongest arguments for public
ownership of the railroads.

That is question often on the lips

Eye strain is brought about by two
