sound and shell exploded behind US.
'Un arrive said my companion. He
signifled that it was present from
the Germans. Soon there was louder,
sharper sound. 1t was a responsive
roar from our own batteries. I'm de-
part he said with great satisfaction.
'Voilap we had 1t. The exchange Of
artillery fire Is, after all, matter of
arrivals and 'departures.' Needless
to say, the departs enjoy the wider
popularity"

I wish TO say a few words from the
standpoint Of one disinterested.
When first came to Ell Paso. IS
years ago. the transportation system
consisted Of a one mule power" car
line and the city extended only a few
blocks out Boulevard; then came the
electric lines and the city expanded
in each direction the car lines ran.

hills. Then what2 About Il years
after the electric lines came. the city
Of FL Paso allowed a parasite jitne
to attach itself and to sap the life
blood Of the very institution (elec-
trio line3) that had done the most
to build the city and make it what
II IS: then. as was natural, the car
service became impaired because Of
lack Of patronage. Who was to
blame2 The people Of FL Paso who
made it possible for the jitne to live.
The editorial in The Herald OF the
weaknesses Of the jitne service. They
run when they feel so inclined: II
weather IS bad. they don't run. They
are a decided injury to the streets
and pay nothing toward their up
keep. All the nearby cities have done
away with the jitne. and the cure
for FL PasO's transportation diff

entirely and give the car system.
which has done so much for the city,
a chance to restore fits service, which
existed prior to the advent Of the
jitne. and I believe there will be no
more cause to complain.
