Let us cherish in our hearts those undyine words
of Abraham Lincoln, the first American to reach the
lonely heights of immortal fame. Take his message,
carry 1t and proclaim it broadcast throughout the

zens of this great democracy. Let them highly
resolve that government of the people, by the peo-
pie, and for the people shall not perish from the

Little Railways

Of full grown railway outfits. They
carry enormous loads and wind along

lagos with great speed There isn't
any block system to keep trains from
meeting along the way but some
way genius of these American rail
way engineers keeps lots of trains
going all the time with seldom any
congestion
Switches ana sidings help keep
roads clear These are frequent as
the healthy toot Of the little Ameri-
can locomotives. The toot is model
ed after that Of a fun grown Bald

the doughboys. Americans never

With the American Army in France,
Oct. 3.-(By mail. THE American
railway engineers played an impor-
tant role in the battle for st. Mihiel
sector. They didn't get out and take
Germans but they made it possible
for others to DO SO.
All up and down the American
front there is a network Of narrow
gauged railways, running to every
point along the front, and connecting
the fighters with their bases IN the
rear.
The Americans have developed rail
way building along the front to a
high degree of efficiency. They can
lay a track through a wood or across
a fiNd in almost no time, and soon
little engines specially built for the
front are chugging along dragging
strings of cars loaded with shells
food and other things the doughboys
need
The little trains look like toys, they
arc so small, but they do the work
