CROWDED CARS
ARE RULED UPON

In ordering improvements to the car
service of the Schuylkill Railways
Company in the complaint made
against it by the borough of Shenan-
doah, Public Service Commissioner
Milton j. Brecht says: mo system of
railway operation has yet been found
elastic enough to have always a proper
and sufficient number of cars at the
various points of emergency in the
service so as to be able to give every
passenger a seat"
The commissioner adds: This in
ability to provide for special and un-
expected crowds on a few hours no
tice does not warrant a railway COM
pany to neglect the obligation which
1t has assumed to furnish adequate
and convenient service to it's regular
patrons who come and go daily un-
less. as in some of our largest cities
traffic conditions are too congested to
permit the installation of such serv-
ice. In the situation presented at Shen-
andoah there is no reason appearing
why adequate car service should not
be provided in the morning to carry
the miners and other workmen to their
places of employment and on Satur-
days to take care of the general traf-
fic. The segregation of the
miners by operating special cars or re-
serving a compartment in cars as sug-
gested by complainant would not work
out very well in practice" Miners are
entitled to the same privileges as any
other passenger and while some min
ers are favorable to such a plan, says
the opinion. the commission has been
unable to find nor does 1t have knowl-
edge at present of any method by
which that end can be attained in a
satisfactory manner"
The company is directed to change
it's service, to install new steps, etc,
rehang tenders. replace stoves by more
modern methods of heating, and to
have conductors pay attention to VEN
tilation and sanitary condition of cars.

Modem Counterpart
OF the Sewing Circle

No. The good she can do in her own
home may be the best good. but the
number Of women TO whom you can say
unchaIlenged to-day that It is the only
good is small. And so, last week, with
their canning done, their war bread or
dered, their sons sweaters knitted and
sent, through their committee, 20 the
trenches, and their Liberty bonds
bought, the women OF the publicity
committee stood Up in the public
streets and went 70 the people, direct
and unashsmed, tor money Tor their
country.
They went with newspaper advertise
ment, with photographs. with posters.
with orators, with brass bands. To
reach every ireside in New York they
left their own. They are the direct de-
scendants Of the Old Ladies' Aid So
ciety, these women Of the publicity
committee, but they will never 90 back
to the sewing circle!
They have learned the vast power Of
publici.y-organized publicity. They
have learned that the same great lever
that can raise breakfast foods to a ma
tionsl tradition can be used TO raise the
Liberty Loan 20 an unbelievable figure
and they will never forget.
One million FIVE hundred thousand
dollars is only a beginning.

He drew out the white meerschaum

the quiet, listening crowd, caught
the chance pedestrian, disesting his
luncheon just eaten at the Players
Club, and sen. him in TO the little
white booth TO add a hundred TO the

The point 70 all these guesses lies in
the fact that the women OF the Ma

count when they collected their speak

the humor of that kind Of badinage.
One morning very early they asked
for volunteers 70 reconnoitre the en-

10 the top Of an eminence which domi-
mated the most advanced German lines.
While the sergeant who accompanied
them noted the lay Of the land the men
slid down behind the ridge, which pro-
tected them. Seated there, they light

in their midst.
Journee had the upper part Of his
body torn Off and thrown some feet
away. The other. fell, mangled by the
explosion. Only the sergeant escaped.
He left his dangerous position and re-

All Problem. Solved
To Suit Germany

Ireland has not asked for indepen-
dence. The question was never before
the public until Germany fabr Gated
the Irish Republic movement in Berlin
and paid for il in America and Ireland.
In times of peace there liz no prospect
that a majority OF the inhabitants OF
Ireland would ask for independence.
Nor could the most democratic and
socialistic British government grant
il. The situation ia similar 20 that OF
Finland in this respect. Not even the
Russian Council Of Worknen and
Soldiers favors independence. though
Finland, like Ireland, is 20 have every
conceivable right OF local seif-govern-
ment
There 4, no reason in democracy or
internationslism why the German
colonies should not remain under
England and France. which have IN
many cases demonstrated that they
can give self-government and establish
native rule. The great British de-
mocracies OF Australasia and Africa
will rightly refuse any other solution
Moreover, this IL probably the only
practicable form OF indemnity for
manifest wrongs done as demanded
b. President Wilson.
Belgium was "neutrslized.' TIE
worlds democracies will never consent
10 give Germany similar opportunity
at Panama. Suez or Constsntinople.
In word. every international prob.
lem is solved in the German way. And
not a single problem is solved accord
ing to democratic or internstionsl
principles.

Of blessedness, his brain full Of vague
and happy ideas, penetrated with the
confused feeling that this day wa. the
most memorable in his life, and that q
man who could smoke such pipe is

Tn. next day Migot, blacksmith OF
rude appearance but with a sardonie
fancy, called out 70 him:
Say. Journee, If you are killed by
the Boches We shall inherit your pipe"
This pleasantly appealed TO all the
men. They found it SO droll that not q
