A. c. T. I. NOTES

The members of the better speech council have decided to adopt methods by which the enthusiasm of the better speech movement may be kept up. One of these methods is the critic system. In each English class there are to be two critics. These critics shall make note of the general mistakes that they hear. A part of the class period will be devoted to the discussion and cor rection of these mistakes.
 Another way by which enthusiasm may be kept up is through the Current Events club. There will be several squads of girls chosen from eacn class. These squads will compete with each other in trying to get the most interesting topics.
 A bulletin board is to be placed where all of the students may see 1t some time during the day. Everything con- cerning better speech, such as quotations and mistakes in grammar, will be placed on this board.

Railroads and the War

From Leslie's.
 Winning! The most signal Illustration of the way big business is heiping to wl1 the war is found In the cooperation oi the railroads Voluntarily 693 lines have merged their competitive activities fol the period of the war, thus securing the efficiency and economy of one continental system with none of the drawbacks thai would be found in governmental opera tion. Tremendous saving has been made by filling cars to capacity or beyond Empty cars have been moved promptly from one railroad 10 another where mos needed, Irrespective of ownership. Cal shortage. or the excess of unified cal acquisitions over idle cars, has been re. duced 70 per cent. By the elimination of all but the most necessary passenger trains, an inconvenience the public h4i taken uncomplainly on account of tht war-2O 100000 miles of train service year have been saved. Through the pool. ing of lake coal and ore and tidewatei coal a saving Of $500 cars has been effected. When Colonel Roosevelt wal President, earnest as he was to prevent all restraints of trade. he favored thu proposition that the railroads be per mltted to pool their earnings. just as nov they have pooled the transportation busi. ness and put it on a basis of highest efficiency. thus fully justifylng his judg' ment.
