CHARLES. M. HAYS.

Charles Melville Hays, the great Canadian railway executive who lost his life in the Titanic disaster, was born in Rock Island. ILL, sixty-two years ago today. He was only seven teen when he began his railway car eer as a clerk in St. Louis. His con- nection with the Grand Trunk began in 1896, when he was made general manager, with headquarters in Mont real At that time the Grand Trunk was usually referred to in railway circles as ''the Dead Line," but under the management of MT. Hays the sys tenn speedily took on appearance of life. His hardest task was to convince the London stockholders board of the necessity of proposed improve ments. but he finally succeeded. In 1901 he resigned from the Grand Trunk to accept the presidency of the Southern Pacific, but in a few months returned to Montreal as sec- ond vice-president and general man ager of the Grand Trunk. In 1910 he became president of the road. At the time of his heroic passing from the worlds activities, MT. Hays was president, not only of the great rail- road which he had built up, but all so of the Canadian Express Company, the St Clair Tunnel Company, the In- ternationa1 Bridge Company, the Mon- treal Warehousing Company and other 1 corporations.

shown i'm such clear symbolism that
the picture is said TO be almost as
good as d sermon. The hero and
heroine are splendidly typed and
represent keen studies of human ma

story are alive with emotion. The
story itself is an unusual one of q
