SHIPPERS ASKED
 ID AID RAILROAD
AppsaB for Expedition in Kesp
 ing Cars on the MtIs

The New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad hes issued the fol- lowing appeal to shippsrs:
 On May l. 1917 the United States was short 146.41s frsisht cars, the greatest shortage in history.
 How the freight car owners. and tho freight car users. by co-operating can make enough care for the gov- ernment and everybody is shown in an appeal just issued by c. ]. McDon- aid, assistant to the chairman of the western department of The Rail- roads War Board. Mcdonald points out that the trouble does not lie in the non-existence of enough cars. but that the maximum use of each car is not obtained. Just what co-opera- ton in freight car conservation means Is shown here:~@
 An increase of two tons per loaded ear would be equivalent to adding 100000 cars to the number available for public use.
 There are about from 250,000 to 300.000 points in tho United States whore freight h received and dsliv- cred. It is estimated that quicker loading and unloading would increase tho number of available cars by s15.- GOO.
 Thsre gre 2.s7s.ooo freight cars in this country of which about 6.6% are normally under repair The rail- roads are trying hard to reduce this percentage to 1, which would release 64,000 cars for active service.
 Now, if the public will cooperate with the railroads in loading cars to their full permissible capacity ana in releasing equipment promptly, max imum eficiency will be secured and tho problem solved.
 Ask for only the cars you need and when you need them; use fully; load promptly; release quickly.
 New cars are being built but the volume of the nations business Is be- ing built faster, wherefore avoidance of car wastage is as important as avoidance of food wastage.
 The time may even come, and come quickly, when our country's success will hinge upon the car sup ply.
 Help us avoid using two cars whore ono will suhnce. for . car saved is . car made.

 LITTLE EYES CLOSE
It's bedtime at the Babies House
 Of Children's Home

Bedtime at the Babies House of the Children's Home is . most Ap- pealing time! When { o'clock supp per is finished the score of little toddlers romp about together for . little while. If there Is tho least ex- cuss they sing . song or two.-about the sandman and about tho sun siuk- inG in the west. They love to show what Sood memories they have!
 Ono little lad in blue rompers grasps little midget miss by the hand. and they begin to swing their arms violently to and fro in time to the music. too engrossed to sing and wholly unconscious of anyone watch ing. What . pity that no one has ! camera ready to snap them!
 Then, when they have all, Quisted down bit they Gather and kneei in group in the sweetest fashion. and with the matron or one of the older tdrls to guide them, they say their evening prayer together, ending with plea for . blessing on all the little boys and all the little girls and all the matrons in all the houses.
 After that there is . general exo- dus toward the upstairs regions, where . little white crib is waiting for Vpach drowsy boy. After all has been said about children who hate to go to bed. isn't 1t surprising to hear a group of youngsters who actually enjoy bedtime? These babies jump into their nighties as happy as you please. The older cl1ildren,-those have reached the advanced age of i've or six years help the little ones in the gentlest way, undoing stubborn fastenings and wrestling with rsfrac- tory buttons.
 It is a great feat to bs the first one lifted into bed. Even second honors are not to be despised.
 Ono lad says he never has had . dream. such as the older children tell of, SO daytinnes he makes up nice ones for himself, as . solace.
 \ great deal of betting and cud- ding goes with the process of tuck dng in the bed clothes. and then it ia such fun to lie there securely and play bedtime games
 There is one game in which the sandman goes from crib to crit sprinkling imaginary sand on the lit tic eyelids. In another game every wee boy and girl closes his eyes tight and lies as still as can be. to see who will 90 to sleep first. The one who really does go to sleep first wins the game of course. Such heroic ef. forts to be quiet! One little figure does seem relaxed. Are you asleep Sonny?" asks tn matron. Yes, . pipes a. tiny little voice.
