MUCH EXPRESS MAKES
VERY LATE TRAINS

All trains have been late for the
past few weeks. Railroad men say
this is caused not alone by much
travel but on account Of the extra
large amount Of express and parcel
post that is being handled now. At
no time in the history of the railroad
business has such large quantity of
express and parcel post been carried
and this necessitates much time in
loading and unloading.

- [ l--- - FRESH BLOOD AS A TONIC

(Roy C. Andrews in the National Geo.
 graphic Magazine.)
 On the first days hunt at Hozando (Northern Korean wlderness), a deer was shot. The bullet, passing through both lungs, filled the thorax with clot- ted blood, and as soon as the animal was opened Paik. my Korean gun bearer plunged his face into the half liquid mass, drinking and eating until the last drop was gone: then remov- ing the steaming rel liver. he cut it into slices, swallowed them as fast as possible.
 I was tremendously surprised, but learned afterward that the Koreans be- lieve the blood of deer or any wild animal, if drunk when warm, to be a splendid tonic. Tiiyer's claws, whis- kers, bones and teeth are especially valuable, and preparations made from these materials were often given to soldiers before a battle or any spec ia1ly hazardous enterprise, since they were believed to inditate great bravery.

 Nor do we know that under the Plumb plan station train announcers will talk so one can understand 'em. Speaking of train annonncers, there's one in Wales who has to call out, 'Llanfihangel- -yng- -Nghlwufa," and an- other has to inform a waiting crowd that the local for Llanfairpwllgyngyll gogerpwllllandypilwg is on track umptyteen, All Aboardl
 Tennessee train anouncers can yell something like this:
 "All aboard for Juno. Venus, Vul- can. Neptune. Bacchus. Hercules. and points east west, north and south."
 There is more or less difference of opinion as to the schedule and track the Plumbed railroads will take.
 For example:
 Say the advocates:
 Under the Plumb plan railroads will run via Best Service, High Wages, On Time, Low Rates to Prosperity.
 But insist the opponents:
 Under the Plumb plan railroads will run via Wobbly Cars, Leaky Engines, Rusty Rails to Bankruptcy.
 To hear the Plumb planners one would think the only. way to get rich is to stock water a railroad, but Phil Bender has been convicted in Paris for swindling unsuspecting Frenchmen into buying the Brooklyn Bridge, New York City Hall, and Central Park.

 It is no great secret that many con gressmen prefer the piums you shake off the old political plum tree. But will railroads be plumbs or lem ons thereafter?
 And can one speak of a railroad worker, if he's plumb planner, as a plumber without getting in bad with a reglar plumbing person?
 And when railroaders are plumbers will they adopt the gentle habit of forgetting the engine and have to go back to the roundhouse for it? Let us hope the Plum plan makes railroads run in as straight a line as
