RAILROAD MEN
READY FOR DRIVE
campaign Starts One Minute
After Midnight Saturday;
Daily Sessions

Railroad men in and around Har-
risourg are ready for the big safety
drive which will begin next Satur-
day morning a minute after mid
night and will continue fourteen
days. 1t is estimated that there will
be many thousand transportation
employees directly interested in the
campaign, but there will be other
thousands interested and indirectly
affected.
This campaign, which will be
known as the national. railroad ac-
cident prevention drive, will be un-
DER the auspices of the United States
Railroad Administration, which
aims to prove to the nation that
carelessness is a habit that can be
eradicated. Every railroad in the
natlon under Federal control will
be engaged in the drive for the two
weeks and as there will be regional
and divisional figures issued at the
conclusion of the drive, the railroad
employees in the Pittsburgh territory
are alert. so that they will stand at
the head of the list. Further, there
Will be competition among the va
rious lines running into Harrisburg
and this promises to be keen. AL
ready the various railroads are lay
ing plans to have every employe do
his utmost to prevent an accident to
himself or his fellow workmen.
Daily Meetings
Practically every railroad building
in and around the city is displaying
the drive posters. These show q big
locomotive throwing q ray of light
upon the calendar figures represent
ing the duration of the campaign
and also contain slogans that will
| inspire the men. The warning, Lets
be careful for our families; for our
fellowmen, for ourselves" is the
battle cry of the drive.
The hope of railroad officials is
that there will not man killed or
injured during the two weeks of the
| drive. They maintain that casual
| ties. are an unnecessary evil, and be-
lieve they can make the men en-
gagged in the transportation and
| maintenance see the evil in the
| same light.
Employees of the Philadelphia di.
vision are we'll organized for this
campaign. Daily meetings are now
in order and will be during the
drive.
| Each employe will be asked tc
sign pledge card stating that he
or she will be careful during the
drive and afterward and will dc

If Constipated, Bilious
or Headachy, take
"CascaretS"

Sick headache, biliousness, coated
tongue, or sour, gassy stomach
always trace this to torpid liver;
delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels.
Poisonous matter clogged in the
intestines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches
the delicate brain tissue it causes
congestion and that dull, throbbing,
sickening headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigest-
ed food and foul gases, take the ex-
cess bile from the liver and carry
out all the constipated waste mat
ter and poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning.
They work while you sleep.

A change of pasture is good for both
cows and pasture.
Cream should be cooled Immediately

Best returns from the average dairy
cows come between the age of ) and S

will cure a case of blood in the cows
